Loved the second by second play by play of the battle. Really felt like I was in the middle of the fight. And the non irony of Sam Finn saving the day in a chapter titled "Out of the Woods." Glad to see more of this one. And if I missed it in the last 1.5 years, I'm glad to see it back up. :) Hope Mel is okay.

Author's Response: Thanks BuffyRat. And Mel's okay. He's just a little miffed. And he's getting hungry.....
