Subject: Startled

Jiirdrian krept into the forge, and over to where Zippy was working. He always enjoys scaring the dwarf, and he moved up behind him. He waits there for several moments and watches the dwarf work on a piece of steel. Sparks jump from the metal as he strikes it with his oversized hammer. He sets down the hammer, and picks up a smaller one, and continues his work for several minutes. then he picks up the hook with some nearby tongs, and whips arround to quench the cooling steel in a barrell of murky water, when he notices Jiirdrian, and he lets out a wail that makes the entire place go quiet for a moment, and then fill with laughter as he jumps back nearly over the anvil he was working with moments earlier. Jiirdrian caught the hook in his guantletted hand, and set it on the ground. He knew something like this would happen. Thats why he did it. "Is my hook done yet?" He asked. "Naw, an it aint gonna be if'n ya kep frightnin da smitty!" He hollered. "Then i'll be back for it later." He lept over the desk, and was out the door in an instant.
