Spiders and Deathknights

I decided to take Al'ar out for a stroll around The Heartland. As we were riding around I heard a commotion and looked below us. Someone was getting attacked by a huge red spider. It must be Succula the Waterbite Widow. I've tussled with her once before. She will stay hidden in the water and wait for the marsh cranes to walk by and then she will pounce and snatch them up. At that time she was too strong for Dags and I so I just used Howl of Terror on her and she ran away which gave me and Dags a chance to slink away.
As we got closer I noticed this was a Tauren and her axe had an icy mist around it indicating that she had runed it with Cinderglacier so this was a Deathknight. Deathknights are bad ass, she shouldn't need help with this spider. A couple of swift chops to it's legs pretty much should take care if it.
Al'ar and I landed, I got off and brought out Dags.
When I was close enough to get a better look at the Deathknight, I recognized her. "Killmecow?!?!?!" I shouted. She looked back and Succula pinned her to the muddy ground.

"Oh cripes!, I'm sorry, we'll talk later!!.. Dags go!" Dags went in and taunted Succula to attack him while Killmecow could get away. "Deadskully! Please pull your demon off. I didn't mean to disturb her, it was my fault, she was just feeding on a crane she caught and I got too close" Killmecow explained. "Well now you tell me.... Dags come back!" He didn't hear me the first time so I had to get closer. I ran under Succula and called for him to come back with me.
When Dags stopped attacking her, she ended up turning on me. I tried to cast Fear on her to make her get the heck away from me, but she kept biting and spitting toxic goo at me I couldn't focus a good spell cast. I hit her with one Shadowbolt to see if that would slow her down. nope.
Dags was itching to finish her off but I had to listen to my friend's wishes and keep him at bay. When I finally did hit her with Fear as she turned to run.
Because of that Shadowbolt I threw at her my Breath of Yu'lon cloak hurled a Jade Dragonflame at her. "Crap Noooooo!!" I yelled as I ran towards her to make an attempt to push her big spider butt out of the Dragonflame ring left on the water top. But I was too late.
She died.



I looked back at Killmecow who looked disappointed, but knew there wasn't anything that could be done. "I am sooo sorry"
"It's ok, on the bright side the unsuspecting cranes around here will be safe."
"That is true"
There was so much to catch up on. I haven't seen this cow in years. I was surprised she even remembered me, or vice versa. I'm kinda scatter brained and I don't really remember a lot, but she must have been important to me because I surely remembered her. We found a huge rock under a tree to sit at and watch the yaks graze on the fields.
This was fun to make. This was obviously altered.
Both these toons are on the same account.
I think I'll try to do more of this.
The following link is a story I made back in 2011 introducing Killmecow. I just reread it after a couple years. I made up a weird backstory for her I must admit, but meh, it works: Killmecow story
