Part 3: Violence with no consequence, Unexpected battle, Meeting a Shaman

Riding at the head of a mob of Boar boy Big 'Uns is an experience, especially so when all of them are in various stages of being riled up and excited,

Grinning I glance back to see a couple of them brandishing some mean looking big choppas and wearing what is probably Knightly armour for an orc with wide mouthed violent smirks

'Makes sense, while a 40K Ork Nob would tower over these guys in this verse they are the biggest and best of the Greenskin race...Except for the Black Orcs anyways' while thinking I make sure to keep an eye on the path we're taking and see a large hill in front of the group I am leading and head up.

Cresting the hill and with my Boys forming up behind and around me I look over the are and feel some serious deja vu, looking over to one of the Big 'Uns to my left I ask

"Oi da ya fink that dis looks furmiliar?" I ask while nudging my head over the area in front of us, the Bug 'Un narrows his eyes and tilts his head to the side before nodding and saying

"Yeh Boss i'z seen it before but I dunt know much else?" The Big 'Un replies and then shrugs his massive shoulders before looking back over the area

"Wots yer name?" I ask curious despite myself

"Nomor...I picked da name when an umie kept shouting it at me az I wuz beatin i'm" Nomor says with a savage grin

Nodding to him I looked back over the seemingly cloned landscape in front of me before looking back over at Nomor

"Go check behind us an see if itz da same" I ordered and he nodded and trotted away

'Weird things abound I supposes, but why do they seem to pick me to torment' I Think to myself resigned before Nomor comes back

"Yeh itz da same boss jus loik in frunt ov us" he says pointing ahead, looking back over the area I try to bring forth the powers I used against the old Boss and to tame this boar, but I find myself seemingly unable to

Relaxing in my saddle slightly I close my eye and look deep inside myself...tried to look inside myself, because something stopped me and snapped me into awareness again, as I look around I see the others agitated and looking around sharply in various directions.

Confused I was about to ask until a light breeze made its way to me and hit my skin and with it came a smell but one I couldn't place.

I felt the Waaagh energy rise and explode out in sporadic blasts all around myself and my party before a clanging sound erupted all around us before my Big 'Uns began to be slaughtered all around me.

As my Big 'Uns attempted to fight seemingly invisible enemies I focused inwards agian to try and dispel the magic surround the area but I was interrupted by an invisible weapon slashing across my chest

Hissing in pain I swiped my Staff Axe, henceforth known as Da Wicked Cane, the mighty weapon slashed but I missed and then received another two slashes at my outstretched arm, angered I roared out and slashed all around me and being rewarded with a slick sound before I looked down and saw an Orc, this orc had bone armour and fur clothes with blue tattoos in various places around it.

'Savage orcs, these greenskins follow Wurrzag…' my eye widened before I felt an even bigger increase in waaagh energy around me and watched as the area became real again, the hill I was on lowered to ground level and then I was able to see that were were surrounded by a massive force of Greenskins all of whom were savage in one form or another

"Stik togeva boys we'ze been had" I roared out to what remained of my boys, which was surprisingly still quite a high number with only a dozen Big 'Uns falling to the tactics of our opponent

Forming closer ranks and facing all comers I watched as this army readied to attack and once more tried to feel my inner power but this time I put all my focus and willpower.

I felt the barrier blocking me from my power and smashed into it with all my power.

It didn't Budge at all...Thinking quickly I tried to find a way around only for it to follow wherever I went.

Desperate I gathered the ambient feelings of anger and excitement emanated from my Big 'Uns and let it pool for only a second before I embraced it.

All at once I felt the power of the Waaagh field and what it could accomplish but I could also feel the lingering feelings of my former human mind meld with my new Orcish mind, then I realised that my human thought processes were hindering me greatly.

I felt the barrier trying to hold me back crack and wither as my human mind became one with my Orcish one, gathering the same will I used before I smashed the barrier and unleashed my true power.

As the savage greenskins charged I got up from my now slumped position my eye glowing with ethereal power which then spread to my boys and then I roared

"Waaaaaagggghhhh!" before I counter charged the opposing army, my Big 'Uns not far behind, in no time my small pocket of Waaagh powered boys hammered into the lines of the savage Greenskins and thus battle was joined.

In the furious melee I found myself with no time at all to think and instead focused solely on killing my enemies, all around me were my Big 'Uns fighting their own fights with savage glee.

Killing a savage Big 'Un with a slash of Da Wicked Cane as my boar rams its tusk into another destroying its leg through lower body, I paused and thanks to the lull in my little area of the fight to watch as one Big 'Un who I recognised as Nomor was dragged off of his Boar by a duo of Savage Big 'Uns and hidden by the huge flank of the now rampaging boar.

I was ready to move in to help him when the boar moved away and I saw both Big 'Uns dead with Nomor, spike armour and green skin covered in blood and wielding two choppas moving on to find more Boys to kill.

All around me my Boys foguth viciously even while massively outnumbered were having the time of their lives as they slaughtered with reckless abandon.

My musing and watching was cut off when a loud roar echoed through the battlefield, the battlefield not stopping in its melee at all at the coming of this beast, I watched with rapt attention as a massive Cave Squig smashed its way through the savage orc lines before plunging deep into my Big 'Uns and snapping up a whole boy in one mighty chomp.

I watched as two of my boys broke off from their opponents and began hacking at the giant squig before the squig fought back and began ravaging both of them.

Readying myself for another as I see a group of Savage boys charge my way before in a flash of green and screams of agony where there were savage orc boys there are now two trolls with massive hammers.

'Crap, this isn't good' i though in horror before both trolls began charging me.

The trolls have greyish black skin wearing fur loincloths and with dumb looking faces (filled with roaring anger) with large noses, seemingly looking like large goblins but with the muscles and power to tear Orcs to pieces in seconds.

Raising Da Wicked Cane and spurring on my boar I rush to my left to engage the leftmost troll in the hopes of keeping this one in the way of the other one.

Managing to steer clear of an overhead smash by the troll I swing Da Wicked Cane at the trunk like arm of the troll hoping to disable it, however all I accomplish is a fairly light cut.

Eye widening i look up to see the troll glaring at me before he brings his hammer to bear once again and swings it hard, unable to get out of the way my Boar take a huge hit which caves in its chest and kill it instantly I however am launched way onto the ground.

Dizzily but with purpose I got to my feet and brought Da Wicked Cane back up before I decided to be reckless.

Charging forward towards the trolls, the second one now having found its way around its friend, I called upon my power over the big green and shot forwards like a bullet and appeared near the now confused trolls before I, with both hands, slashed my Staff Axe at the rightmost trolls legs while I was powered by the Waaagh and cleanly severed the leg sending the troll tumbling to the ground screaming in agony.

The leftmost troll seeing the condition of its kin look at me before swinging its hammer horizontally hoping to kill me.

Ducking fast I managed to doge the horizontal hit but I also came face to face with the downed troll, the troll then grabbed hold of my left arm and tried to rip it off with a roar of anger however it miscalculated and I went with my arm and it the apex of its arm movement it let go sending me flying over the battlefield.

While flying over the battlefield I watched as the few remaining of my Big 'Uns continued to fight and slaughter, I even watched as Nomor climbed the back of the still standing troll and began stabbing it repeatedly while laughing.

I hit the ground with a thud and slid across the floor before smashing into a rocky outcropping.

I sat there in absolute agony as throughout my whole body I could feel many broken bones and some pulped bones, it was only because I was an orc that I was still alive.

Blearily I looked back over to the now far more distant battlefield I saw the troll that was still standing go down and then I saw nothing but savage orcs.

'That..Could have...Gone...Better' I thought to myself wincing form the pain as I gripped Da Wicked Cane in my right arm as I used it as a conduit to channel the flagging power inside of me to try and heal my wounds

"Dat was a good Un hur hur hur" I hear a deep amused voice to my left, as i turn my head to see the owner of said voice my eye widens.

To My Left stood a bare chested tattooed Orc with a mask over his face leaving only glowing red eyes with a staff in his hands and with a boar lazily standing behind him

"Wurrzag…." I Said in awe as I gazed at the legendary lord in next to me

'Why? Why would he be here?" i thought to myself while casting an eye back over at the still raging battle seeing a circle of my Big 'Uns fighting to the death.

"I wuz told ta follow da best Boss by da great gods, I wuz finking dat wos you y know hur hur, specially 'fter wot I wuz told" he says starting amusedly before becoming serious, he shakes his head

"I'ze Not impressed here blackie boy, so how'ze about a wager eh?, da gods still want you ta be da great boss and I wuz told to follow da great boss so what's say you beat me in a foight and den I an me tribe joinz ye eh?" he says before tapping Spleenrippa his boar which then begins wandering away from both of us.

Before I couldquestion him as to how I would fight I feel a power beyond both of us fill me up and begins healing my injuries, I get up and feel better than ever as I look over at Wurrzag to see him slightly dancing on his feet in excitement holding a Bonewood Staff.

"Letz get a move on den Blackie, me boys'l 'old off killin yurs until da foight iz done" he says with a hint of insanity before he glows a deep green that changes the hue of the whole landscape green"

"Hahahahaha dis'll be fun!" he screams in happiness and insanity, I brace myself for the fight ahead and hope i have the power to beat this monster before me
