Volodymyr Haraktrnyk:
"Keep quiet boys, we're almost there and we don't want to wake the bastards..." Volodymyr was sneaking through town with a small gang of ten men. They were fed up with the way The Knights were treating the mainly Orthodox population of the island. They were well armed. And they were going to change things.
They approached a small circular building with arrow slits for windows and a heavily armoured door. Volodymyr whispered, "Do you remember the plan?" The others nodded. Volodymyr smiled widely, "Then let's go. Dimitris?" The bearded man named Dimitris smiled broadly and as he got to his feet he said, "See you when this is done." He then ran down the street a bit away from the others before starting to sing a song insulting Catholicism quite loudly.
The door of the building flew open and shouted orders were heard. A squad of The Knight's watch ran out. They were lightly armoured and carryed short swords. The captain of the squad had a crossbow as well. They started to run after Dimitris.
Voodymyr waited no longer. He picked up his one-handed war axe that he had set down in front of him and started towards the door. The others followed him. A guard standing in the doorway saw them coming and with a panicked expression on his face hastened to shut it but it was grabbed by many hands and forced back open. Volodymyr yelled, "This is what you get bastard!" and swung his axe at the terrified guard's head. There was a sickening squelch and crunch as the axe smashed into his head. As he collapsed lifeless on the floor Volodymyr charged into the building yelling a war cry, followed by most of the others. Two of them stayed behind to shut and then guard the door.
Volodymyr rounded a corner and found a group of twelve guards scrambling for their weapons. A game of cards lay abandoned on the table. He yelled again as he charged in and swung at a nearby guard. He ducked and swung back. Volodymyr caught his wrist with his other hand and grimaced as he squeezed it with all of his strength. The man screamed and dropped his sword. Volodymyr's then kicked him in the middle of the chest and held him pinned with his foot while swinging at another guard moving in to try to help his friend. By this time the room was fuller than it had ever been with Volodymyr's men arriving in it and fighting going on throughout it. The man dodged back from the axe swing but was run through his back by one of Volodymyr's friends.
While Volodymyr's friends were out-numbered they had taken the inexperienced guards by surprise. The guards weren't really supposed to see active combat, they were just for keeping order in the street. As such the battle was over fairly quickly. Three of Volodymyr's friends had wounds but their force of seven had killed the twelve guards. "Search the rest of the building! We don't want to be surprised by any of them," he yelled. "After that we'll make sure this place is totally fortified, check what we've got for supplies and then we can rest. Let's go!"
(There was an Orthodox uprising on Rhodes)
