The wolf is ready to attack. The beast just growls at Bjorn's attempt to intimidate it, and bleaks yellow teeth, letting out a hungry snarl!
Intimidation: Bjorn: rolled 8+2=10
Wolf rolled "20" Intimidation fail.

Feel free to give your brother an order as a free action!
Bjorn 19, Wulf 15, Wolf 11.
Bjorn, dagger in hand, reacts fastest, his warrior training taking over...

Bjorn waves his blade at the wolf, attempting to draw it away from his left hand, which he reaches down to pull the animal off balance.

Bjorn tries to catch the wolf's leg with his hand, but the wolf is clever and quick and it dodges out of the way, and Bjorn loses his balance and falls over. Cursing, he scrambles to his feet again. Wulf runs quickly to his side and slashes at the wolf with his dagger, opening a minor wound in its side. The wolf tries to bite Wulf, but the nimble ranger dodges out of the way.

Rolls:
Bjorn: Trip attack: rolled "1", fumble, miss. (sorry, but that's what the dice say ;-))
Wulf: move, standard attack: rolled total of 19, hit for 4 damage.

Wolf: standard attack Wulf: total rolled 9, miss.
Bjorn...

Bjorn scrambles to his feet, swearing, but glad he hasn't lost his dagger. Ignoring tactics, he lunges at the snarling animal and attempts to drive the blade deep between it's ribs.
Crap. I can't even roll well when I'm not rolling!
Move action to stand from prone. Take the AoO.
Power Attack for two points with dagger. Now, if only a dagger could be hald in two hands.

Ok, I am back again and will post more. Sorry for the delay.
Bjorn grips his dagger in his fist, and lunges at the wolf. He plunges the dagger deep in the beast's side and rips it out again. The wolf howls and growls, but even if the wound may be deep, it has only angered the animal.

Wulf also slashes at the wolf with his dagger, but his attack goes astray.

The wolf snarls at Bjorn and leaps at the fighter's throat, but Bjorn manages to dodge away a bit and the beast only sings its teeth in Bjorn's shoulder. It hurts, but is far from taking the man out of the fight.
Bjorn: Power attack 2: r11+6-2=15 hit for 10 damage.
Wulf: Standard Attack: r04+4=8 miss.

Wolf: Standard attack Bjorn: rolled total of 23, hit for 5 damage
Bjorn: 21/26, AC 12
Wulf: 22/22; AC 14.
Wolf: -14
Bjorn...

Bjorn staggers under the weight of the wolf, then steps slightly aside. He swipes his dagger at the animal, hoping to end this battle quickly.
5-foot step, attempting to provide flanking
Power attack for two points again
Good to see you again, I hope the absence was pleasure, not business

Bjorn moves to the side of the wolf, putting it between him and his brother and slashes at the wolf with his dagger. The steel pierces the animal's skin and dark blood gushes out. The wolf growls and looks up at Bjorn, ready to lunge at Bjorn's throat again.

Wulf, on the other side, flanking the wolf, sees the wolf's exposed neck and dives forward, grabbing the animal's neck and cutting its throat with his dagger. The animal sags to the ground, dead.

Just then a loud yell can be heard: An orc with a quarterstaff, hung with bits of bones and feathers steps out from behind a tree and screams: "Poor Greyfoot, you killa me Greyfoot! You gonna pay fe dat!" He does some arcane gestures, pointing at Wulf! Wulf feels an arcane hold on his body that he cannot shake off! He cannot move for the moment. Then he turns to Bjorn, brandishing his staff at the warrior.
Bjorn: 5' Move/Flank/Power attack 2: rolled 7+6+2-2=13, hit for for 7 damage
Note that most GMs use maps to show position, so with a map it is easier to determine position/flanking etc. In the learner game, I am just going to assume you are successful.

Wulf: Standard Attack: 9+4+2=15 hit for 3 damage, dead.

Orc shaman: cast hold person on Wulf: will saving throw: r10+3=13, fail - held.
Bjorn: 21/26, AC 12
Wulf: 22/22; AC 14. Held.
Wolf: -24, dead.
Orc shaman:
Bjorn...

Bjorn, just noticing the orc, charges straight at him, dagger held back. As he reaches the sub-human spellcaster, he drives the blade forward, attempting to end this fight before the orc can cast again.
Charge, power attack for 2 points, hope like hell that Wulf makes his save next round.

Bjorn: move, power attack 2: r14+6-2=hit for 5 damage.
Wulf: saving throw: r"20", success. Can act next round.
Shaman: cast shield of faith. Concentration roll total 17 successful. No AOO.
Bjorn charges at the orc shaman and stabs him with his dagger, wounding him on the left arm. Wulf stands still, shudders and manages to break the spell holding him. The shaman again says something in a strange language and makes some arcane gestures, careful to keep away from Bjorn's dagger. A reddish glow covers him, shielding him from attacks!

Bjorn: 21/26, AC 12
Wulf: 22/22; AC 14.
Wolf: -24, dead.
Orc shaman: -10, shield of faith +2 AC.
