CH718: Titan Shields
"Target sighted. He's at the stairs."
A paladin sighted one of the targets walking through the doors to the stairs. He was alone so the paladin followed behind.
"In position on the second floor." A paladin from the second floor reported.
The target took his time going up the flight of stairs one by one, unaware of a predator stalking him from behind.
The paladin waited for him to reach the first flight of stairs before rushing after him. He caught him by the nape and pulled him back the stairs.
The target was rolling down the stairs before he knew it.
The paladin didn't allow the poor guy get his bearings. He rushed down after the man and stumped his head against the floor as he was getting up.
The target was left unconscious.
"Target down."
The paladin at the door to the stairs on the second floor left. Another paladin who manned the door on the first floor opened the door.
