As everyone settles in for the night, darkness finally falls over the forest. Not an hour later, both Liet and Fren see an orange glow in the distance and hear the chatter of a noisy conversation. It's coming from the path and in the direction that you were traveling. You can make out a few words... It's common, and half of what you can hear is explitives. You make out three voices.
Seeing this Liet says to Frenevir "shit... I think some are coming back. We should be ready, probably to fight." Liet then starts to wake up the rest of the party, including sending a telepathic message up to the ranger saying "friend! Wake and be ready. Men are coming this way."
Once the party is awake he goes to the entrance of the cave and attempts to hide25, while preparing a very tiny flame in his hand to throw if they men appear hostile, or if they have the same arm bands that the previous group had.
Steve, startled awake, quickly puts on a calm smile, then slowly picks up his crossbow and examines it to see that it is in working order. He says, “Let’s not be too judgmental just yet fella’s. These could be our new best friends for all we know!” And yet, Steve is careful to take cover 1 (+2 stealth) so as to have a chance to see his new friends first.
As the men approach they continue chatting, not immediately noticing anyone. About 15 feet away from the cave they hear some scuttling around and look up. They see Fren attemping to hide. It's like when a dog feels guilty and hides behind a curtain. It thinks its hidden, but everyone knows it isn't...
"Aye, lads," One of the 4 men say as they approach. "What we got here? Seems a mother bear and her cubs have taken to hiding in our little home." The man nods at the cave where the noise from inside originated.
"Seems that way," Another says, an eerie grin appears across his face as the torchlight flickers. "This poor creature don't know who he's messin' with. Do ya'?"
They take a few steps closer (within 10 feet) and a third speaks.
"Well I'll be...This mother bear is actually an elf..."
"Fellas," The last says. "Way I see it, we got 2 options. Should we-"
"We should," The first says, cutting him off then takes a step backwards (15 feet from Fren). All four grin maniacally and pause a moment.

((Liet is hidden.))
((They see Fren, and know at least 1 other person is inside the cave))
They do in fact have the same armbands. Right as Liet casts his spell all four transform into horrid, demonic looking variations of themselves. They were lined up side by side, with the two on the outside able to dive away in time from being hit by Fairie Fire. The two in the middle are as bright as the torches they hold. The two on the outside stand up and unsheath their weapons!
ROLL INITIATIVE!
((Waiting on McFuddy, and Benegol INITs))
((McFuddy, as you were outside above in the tree, should you want to roll stealth you may. DC 15. If success, you can act 1 time before combat starts as Liet did))
((Benegol and Steve, as you're pretty far in the cave, it will take 2 move actions to reach the entrance, so 1 full round))
Listening to them Frenevîr adopts a fighting stance and gets ready to defend himself.
( hahaha loved the analogy, if he survives the attacks does his natural 20 rolled in my last post counts? if not I will roll again when my turn comes :) )
On his turn Liet will toss his flame to one of the glowing demons, unless one of them have approached and he is within melee, in which case he'll stab at them with a dagger, all the while half cowering behind his shield.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
McFuddy lets an arrow fly just as one of the divers stands up and unsheaths his weapon. It hits the demonic figure in the chest and it falls to the ground, instantly changing into the shape of the man again.
Benegol runs up near to the cave entrance with his crossbow and has one small moment for a clear shot. (roll atk and dmg)(assuming you're attacking a faerie fired one for ADV).
The demonic thing on the far right that is not faerie fired sprints toward Fran and swings a vicious looking scimitar! ATK 14 DMG 4
Fran is up!
((ORDER: Benegol 18, demon 15, Fran 11, Liet 8, demon 8 (ff), demon 7 (ff), McFuddy 5, Steve 4))
Frenevîr parries the scimitat but rather than stopping it, he uses the very strenght of the demonic creature attack to spin and he uses his own sword in a descendet move, cutting him from the shoulder to the hip. He crouches down his rear leg and gets ready for another attack.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The creature screams as the blade hits it's flesh. It falls to the ground, demonic visage dissapating back into human form.
As another demon shakes its head trying to rid itself of the faerie fire, it charges at Fran, but a small flame streaks past the elf's face, hitting the demon in the shoulder, spinning it around before it falls to the ground unconscious.
The last demon charges at Fran, sword held high, and strikes down at the wizard!

From the shadows Liet looks to see if they have the same arm bands as the first group in the cabin. If so, he'll pop out and light them up.

initiative 4
Steve approach’s the entrance of the cave (to a distance of 80 feet from the enemy).
((Added your Init to the order, @Dukkha, sorry I forgot to mention you))
((Steve and Fran actions noted. @Kev, want to queue up an action?))
On his turn Liet will toss his flame to one of the glowing demons, unless one of them have approached and he is within melee, in which case he'll stab at them with a dagger, all the while half cowering behind his shield.

Initiative 18
ooc: I didn't quite get if , dashing, I arrive at the cave entrance AND in melee (consider also that I have reach if I am to take the glaive)
anyway, I stated I had the crossbow so I'd need at least to see them, do I still need to dash because I have my companions' bodies in front of me?
McFuddy
Initiative 5
Stealth 23
I would use hunter's mark, on the man in the back of the pack, as a bonus action. And my full action would let an arrow fly right into his chest.
