OOC: Yeah, long time since I posted here. Well, just as news to all old and new chars, I'm back. It'll be good for me to get posting again... lol
IC: *It had been quite awhile since Dantin and Kade had last seen Otter's Fort, a few months at the least. Dantin had left in a great hurry all those months ago upon hearing rumors of a certain vermin band being lead by a certain turncoat mouse but had never found them. For reasons only known to Kade, he went off after Dantin upon hearing of his departure. Since then they had had many adventures and been in many fights. They had met many new friends and had even stayed at Redwall for a short period of time. After everything they had now gone through together, they were changed mice. Before, on the outside neither had many scars on account of not getting into many battles but now they had plenty of them. Their muscles had grown hard from the constant traveling and battling and their sword paws were much quicker and struck with more deadly force than before. On the inside, though, they had also changed quite a bit. For one, Kade was much much much much much better at conversations now and was scared by every little thing. Dantin hadn't seem to have changed much but there were subtle differences in him. Also, a bond had been formed between the two mice that could never be broken. The kind of bond that is formed from saving eachothers life on numerous occasions and learning to depend on eachother when anything was going wrong. They were eachothers best friend and were more like brothers than anything else, except for the fact that they rarely fought. On a side note, they are also both seventeen now.*
*Stepping out of the forest, the two mice stopped and looked upon the site that lay before them. Otter's Fort spread out across their view looking as indestructable as ever. It didn't seem as if much had changed in the time that they had been gone. Dantin let out a sigh and patted Kade on the back.* "Well, lets go and see if they're happy to see us back here!" *Kade laughed and they both started off towards the gate. Upon reaching it Kade called up.* "Ahoy the wall! How 'bout letting two poor beasts in that have been wandering for awhile?"

Zephyr Bladerunner had been eyeing the mice. The taggerung fox was cloaked, his body hidden by green. A finger traced along the black flethcing of an arrow as he stalked the mice, not knowing whether they were good or evil. Sure, they seemed good, but they could be bad. He stood up in a creeping motion and crept along the bushes, then slowly made it to the main path, and snuck up behind Danting, his bow taut with the black fletched arrow. When he was right behind Dantin, Zephyr whispered, "Be ye friend or foe?" He had the arrow aiming at the base of Dantin's skull, waiting for a response. If Dantin tried something, the arrowwould be released, and it would sever the spinal cord from the skull. "Speak. Now."

*Dantin let out a laugh and said aloud.* "Not very nice, is he?" *Kade laughed and said.* "No, he could be a bit more quite though. Thought he was sneaking up on ya." *At this, Kade turned to the fox.* "Is there really a need for that? Your obviously fairly new here so you may not know us. Well, when somebody lets us in from the wall then you'll see. Besides, shooting Dantin with that wouldn't be of much use. His skull is far too thick for a mere arrow to do him any harm."

Zephyr smiled lightly, at Kade's last words. Realizing these beasts were good, or so he still supposed, he lowered his bow, easing his grip. Finally, Zephyr took the arrow and put it back in his quiver. "So, where do you two come from?" He asked, for once, being actually curious. Putting his bow on his shoulder, Zephyr asked, "If your side is good, then I am on your side." He said. "And don't be troubled by my appearance. These Juska tatooes symbolized who I was, but not who I am. Im a taggerung, but I mean you no harm." He said, offering his paw to Dantin and Kade.

*Both Dantin and Kade shook Zephyr's paw at the same time, Dantin using his right paw and Kade his left. They had worked out this routine awhile ago so to them it was natural... to them at least. Dantin replied first* "Well, originally I'm from farther up north but more recently I'm from here. Just been gone for awhile searching for somebeast..."
*Now it was Kade's turn.* "Yeah, who'm we didn't find, mind you. As for myself, I have no idea where I'm from orignally. Got a nasty knock on the head a few months ago and now I don't have any memory from before then. I do know that I'm not from around these parts though, or somebeast woulda recognized me. Oh, by the by, I'm Kade and old thick head here is Dantin." *Dantin just looked at Kade, put his arm on the mouse's shoulder and used it as a support.* "You know, were gonna have to have a talk about this thick head business..." *At this, Kade just laughed.*

OOC: Sorry this took so long, limited PC access IC: Aral's eyebrows raised as he saw Dantin and Kade come up the path, and then his hand dropped and a arrow was on the string of his bow, aimed at the fox. He then lowered it, putting the arrow back in it's quiver, he sent a fleet-footed squirrel to fetch Fishrudder. And then dropped the bow to the ground. He jogged into the gatehouse and began opening the gates.
As the gates slowly cranked open Fishrudder jogged into the gate house to help Aral finish it off. It turned out that he was just around the corner, heading away from the gatehouse when the squirrel caught him. After the gate was fully open, Fishrudder and Aral both headed out to greet the two mice. (Kade's a mouse, right?)

(OOC: Yups, Kade is a mouse. Before I post though, I'm fairly sure Dantin knows who Fishrudder is but does he know who Aral is? Does Kade know who either of them are? I can't remember who's met who IC...)

OOC: Fishrudder was 2nd in command, him and Linx shared it, Fishrudder was more of the battlefield commander, but, yes, he knows them both quite well

*Both Dantin and Kade smiled largely as they saw who was greeting them at the gates. They strode forward, Dantin slightly in front of Kade, untill the two pairs of creatures reached eachother.* "Oh dear, it seems that were gonna get a good telling off from Mr. Fishrudder here, aren't we Kade?" "Oh yes indeed, he even brought our buddy Aral with him to help beat us for being gone so long." *They were both working quite hard to keep straight faces as they said these things. All in all, they were actually quite happy to see those two again, as they'd be happy to see just about everyone again. This was definitely their home.*

Fishrudder strode up to the two mice, a grim visage on his face. As he neared the two mice, his hands flashed to Aral. Aral moved into the woods on the side, and came up behind the fox. Fishrudder's face broke into a smile as he stuck a paw out to Dantin and said "How are you Sarge?"

*Dantin took the paw and shook it warmly though he had a bit of a confused look on his face.* "I'm doin' good but I'm only a squad leader, remember? Have I been gone so long that you forgot that or you just getting old?" *He said with a laugh, obviously joking.*
*Kade was looking at Aral at the moment, wondering why he was being like that with the fox.* "I really don't think that you need to do that Aral. If I'm not mistaken, he's one of those friendly types."

Aral was terse to the mouse "Don't know him, we'll find out, won't we."
While you were gone, a few things happened. For instance, Linx, and his gang, decided to pack up and leave on a sabbatical. Finnerator retired and I'm in charge now, we redid the ranking system. There is now, me, the fort commander, Terg Broadsword, an otter who has come and gone for quite some time, is the Captain. And the squad leaders, Raiden Silversword, also gone for the present, and of course, you. Are now Sergents (SP?). Sinthin, one of Linx's apprentice is also the Fort weaponsmith

*Dantin nodded slowly, making sure he memorized the new system.* "Ok, I think I got all that. Alot has changed since I've been gone. So, does the Sergeant rank equal that of the squad leader and we still have squads or has that been dropped?" *Dantin asked. Kade just shook his head at the response he recieved from Aral.* "Ok, have it your way."
