OOC: This is for me and Dantin only, we want a quicker moving thread, Heh.
IC: Fishrudder strode towards the plains, he was flanked by Aral, Rex, and Dantin (Kade too?). The tall black otter was clad in sparkling stainless steel armor, forged by his old friend and mentor, Stealth, he had died about a year ago.
Aral was clad in supple leather armor, that, of course, supplemented his fighting style. Over that, was a loose robe that flowed too his knees, it was made out of some supple material.
Rex was clad in something like short and a leather breastplate under his green shirt.

OOC: Yeah, Kade'll be there.
*Dantin strode alongside Kade with the rest of the group. Neither Kade nor Dantin had any armor on. They had pretty much completely forgoten about armor seeing as how they'd been traveling around for some months now and hadn't worn a piece of armor the whole time. Kade nudged Dantin, pointed a finger at Fishrudder's armor and said in a low voice.* "We need to get some armor like that!" *Dantin nodded in agreement as they kept walking.* "So, what exactly are we doing out here? You weren't exactly clear when you pulled us out through the gates." *Dantin asked.*

Fishrudder chuckled to himself as he heard the armor comment, he responded to the question "What we did back in the day, finding vermin" He grinned as he continued walking, adjusting the shield on his back as he walked.

"Ahh..." *Dantin said and nodded* "Why am I not surprised?" *He said in a bit of a sarcastic manner, though not in a bad sarcastic manner.*
"What do you mean back in the day? All I got to do 'back in the day' was sit on top of the walltops lookin' at nothing." *Kade said, but then laughed to show that he wasn't being upset.* "Got any ideas where we're gonna find some?" *Dantin and Kade hadn't been back at the fort long enough to have gotten back into the ring of gossip that went around on that kind of subject.*

Ha, Ok, well, back in my day, it was me, Linx, and a few others, running around killing, good times... **He sentence slowly faded as the group walked, he thought back to when he was new to the fort, and the kindly hare, Zanntail, had helped get acquainted with everyone. Then the search for Flammug, which ended abruptly. He then responded to Kade**
Eh, probably, no promises though

"So, you probably have an idea of where vermin might be but you wouldn't promise to the fact?" *Kade had to laugh a bit at that. He knew what Fishrudder had meant but it still sounded funny the way he had said it, like he probably had an idea but he wasn't sure if he had an idea.*
"So, where is this idea of yours leading us?" *Dantin asked, to try and cover up Kade's laughing. Sometimes, Kade was a little... just Kade-ish.*

Aral, Fishrudder and Rex all grinned at Kade's laughter. Fishrudder responded. "Yes, see that hillock up there? It used to be a village, it was ransacked by vermin, last I knew, they still lived there.

*Kade nodded.* "Ok, great! Let's go utterly destry this vermin infestation!" *Kade enjoyed a good battle immensly, probably more than he should have. Dantin just shook his head, smiling.* "Can't keep him from a good scrap, this one."

"Can't keep any of us from a good scrap" Fishrudder said, he then turned to Aral and muttered something, Aral jogged in front of them. "I sent him ahead to see if there are still any there"

*Dantin glanced over at Fishrudder.* "If there are still vermin there then Aral might be in a bit of a jam if he's spotted. you know." *Dantin was just saying this for no actual reason. He knew Fishrudder knew what he was doing, he just wanted to be sure, I suppose.*

Yes, I know, but he's been my scout since I first met him, scouting is natural to an assassin **They were within viewing distance of the hill and Rex could swear he could see beasts moving. It was about that time that Aral returned. "Well, there are about 20 vermin up there, decent sized gang, mostly ferrets and weasels."

"What, just twenty?" *Kade said with a bit of dissapointment.* "I could just about handle that all on my lonesome... this isn't even gonna be a challenge!" *And what Kade said was pretty close to true. He may have been exagerating a bit on how many he could take by himself but with this group of uberly well trained warriors, it wouldn't be a problem.*

Fishrudder chuckled, and said "Your right, but we'll find more, Dantin, Kade, I want you to go back around. I'm gonna send Rex into the camp. See what happens. Have one arrow, or stone ready, launch it, then charge. But only if you see me, or if he gets in trouble. Sound good?"

*Dantin nodded* "Sure, sure, fine by me." *Both Dantin and Kade went off in the direction that Fishrudder had indicated and soon were in position. Luckily they had enough sense to at least bring some bows along that they had 'borrowed' from the armory. They notched their arrows and waited for the signal.*

[maroon]Rex glanced at Fishrudder, and swallowed, he didn't know why he was doing this, but who was he to argue? He sighed, and then started walking up the hill. As Fishrudder took his Great Bow off his back and notched a long arrow and Aral put a stone in his pouch. The broad shouldered mouse got to the entrance of the village. Nearly immedietly a ferret spotted the lone, armed mouse. He drew a wicked looking knife and stalked up to the mouse. With a sneer, he said to Rex "Whatsa doin heres?" The ferret had ugly yellow teeth, that, being the first thing the mouse noticed. He fingered the blade as he put it up to the mouse's throat. Rex answered "What do you think I'm here for."
He didn't like this, he was uncomfortable. His paw drifted down to the long dagger that was sheathed at his waist. With a twitch of his paw, he had the dagger drawn, he slapped away the knife and ran the ferret through. With that, the rest of the vermin emerged, enraged at this single mouse that dared do that. Rex drew his blade and stood there tentatively, waiting for the others to come as the vermin slowly closed in [/maroon]
With a grunt, Fishrudder drew the powerful bow back. He took aim and let the arrow fly, the massive arrow struck a weasel in the back. He dropped the bow, flipped his shield off his back, drew his blade and started running towards the group.
Aral swung the sling in a rapid circle and let it fly. It struck a ferret in the footpaw, it started jumping on one foot, yelping. The other vermin were looking for the assailants. Aral followed Fishrudder's silent charge.
