Luitger was quickly becoming bored of all this flying about.  He had been flying around the Hellfire Peninsula for many days and had found little but lone scouts in the area which posed no real challenge.  Though the bounties he gained from their scalps were enough to keep him going for now.  His mission would be considered complete if he was able to take down a leader.<br/><br/>The list of potential targets was long, but the ones he was most interested in were the Fel Orc Blademasters.  These warriors were among the most skilled at melee combat.  Any of their deaths would hurt the fel orcs morale or even cause a leadership struggle.  Blademaster were often easy to recognize when found.  Most carried banners on their backs with a 'burning blade' icon on them, a symbol of their clan.  Those who operated tended to make their presence known very quickly.<br/><br/>The Light smiled upon him as he soon encountered exactly what he was looking for.  A new Blademaster calling himself Kouga the Typhoon had appeared in the area.  This Blademaster had recently appeared and had been responsible for over 70 known Alliance deaths.  It seemed the total had gotten higher as he cut down the last of a patrol of Draenei Alliance.  He could see the fool laughing and ritually dismembering the bodies as part of his devotion to the forces of the Burning Legion.  It was at this point that he directed the Gryphon, now named Vengeance, down.<br/><br/>Just a few feet off the ground, he leaped off as the Gryphon found a place to roost.  The creature was no fool and knew how to take care of itself.  Kouga looked up at his new opponent.  He reared himself up as Luitger approached him.  Kouga sniffed the air.  "So a weakling human comes to challenge the Typhoon?! You're either very confident or very stupid, human." Luitger said nothing.  He unsheathed his longsword and pointed it at the Orc while making a slashing motion across his throat.  "Very well, human.  If you want to die, I'll oblige you." The Orc sheathed his ornate blade and held his hand over to quickly draw it again.   "RRRAAAGGGHHH!!!" the orc cried out.<br/><br/>Luitger had sized up his opponent well.  The Orc's speed was prodigious, but he was ready.  Luitger put up his sword just in time to deflect the blade.  His bones rattled as their blades clashed.  Using Orc's Bane had been the right choice as it's smaller size would more easily let him match the Blademaster's speed.  Luitger pushed the blade away and attempted a round about swing, but the Orc managed to jump back easily.<br/><br/>"No one has ever fully stopped my attack before.  Tell me your name so that I may name you as my trophy before my chief," the Blademaster asked as they began to circle each other.   Luitger smirked beneath his helmet.  "I am Luitger Dunstan.  Where I come from, I am known as the Scythe, the Blade Wind, or the Hundred Orc Slayer." The Orc laughed at this.  "So, another glory seeker from Azeroth.  Why should any of us fear you? Thrall's 'Horde' is nothing compared to the true Horde here.  We have embraced the demon and it has made us stronger." "You and all your kind will soon grow to fear me, filth," he spat back.  The Orc laughed at this insult.  "I like you, human.  Mugenjin and I can't wait to add you to our tally." At these words, his hand fell to his now-named sword as he prepared again.  "Let's go!" he yelled and charged.<br/><br/>This time, Luitger was prepared.  He stopped the longer blade and quickly began to redirect it, using the Orc's own momentum against him.  The Orc took a fraction of a step past him.  Luitger counterattacked with a chop at the Orc's flank, which he in turn deflected.  Both opponents were skilled, each seemingly unable to get the upper hand.  The endless clash of metal could be heard throughout the open plains.  This went on for several minutes, both combatants becoming tired.<br/><br/>The Orc was panting hard and fighting down the annoyance building within him.  He was clearly not used to fighting skilled humans. "What's wrong?" Luitger mocked, "was the 'Typhoon' just a bag of wind all along?" The Orc gritted his teeth.  "I will visit 20 lifetimes of pain on you, human," he retorted.  "First, you have land a blow on me," he riposted.  He mockingly motioned him to come towards him.  The Orc only got angrier, making him careless, which is what Luitger had counted on.  Instead of the careful sword draw, the 'Blademaster' had gone for an all or nothing swing.  The telegraphed move was all Luitger needed.  Having observed the Orc's body language, he sidestepped down and forward and sliced through the Orc's abdomen.  The Orc continued his forward motion but froze.  Luitger whipped the blood off his blade and sheathed it.  The Orc coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.<br/><br/>Luitger set to work immediatly.  He collected Kouga's unique weapon, prayer beads, and banner.  Finally, he took the Draeneis' spears and impaled his lifeless body along the road as a warning to the other Fel Orcs.<br/><br/>The bounty was confirmed by the mercenary attache both by his trophies as well as the body later found.  He called his Gryphon and took to the Portal to return to Stormwind.  He would need more information and more allies to continue his hunt.  As impressive a catch as Kouga had been, he was just one among very many enemies.  He needed more allies and more information.  He felt back in Stormwind was the best start.
