OOC: Oops, sorry... I didn't realise that you where waiting for me to post...
BIC:*Dantin followed Fishrudder towards wherever they where heading. Whatever they where going to do, he trusted Fishrudder to lead them correctly.* "Sir, what are we gonna do when we get over there?" *He said as they continued in the direction of the vermin army.*

OOC: That's why I bumped it IC: **The otter quietly sighed and repeated** We are going to scout

OOC: Okay, thanks. BIC: **Seor looked around her, finally having caught her breath. The other group had already disappeared, and so she was left with the rest. One of the otters tapped her gently after a while.** What is it? What's that? **All the creatures turned to see a cloud of dust rising from the direction behind them. The sun was shining in their eyes this way, so they had to squint to see.** Vermin! **It was the mouse who said this. Seor grimaced and turning towards the mouse, she asked:** Can ye make out how many there is? Less than twoscore, probably onescore. **Worry etched on the otter's features.** Anyone have an idea of what to do? We could fight. Or we could run. What d'ye think? **The otter asked the mouse. He shrugged.** They've got more than us, I guess, which gives them the advantage. Hmm... Yer right... Hey, how 'bout this, who here brought with them a bow and arrows or weapons of that sort? **The otters each held out slings and pebbles, while the mouse held out a longbow.** Good, now here's what I've got in mind. We could go into the woods and try and lessen a few of the vermin, then it'll be easier to attack them close-up. Maybe a few of us can hide up in the boulders over there, while the rest in the woods. Good idea. Okay, who wants to go to the boulders? **Three of the otters raised their paws. They set off in the direction of the boulders, when approved by the others.** Alright, that leaves us to hide in the woods. Try and hurry though, the vermin's almost here. **The four jogged towards the woods, each choosing a tree to hide behind. If only we've got squirrels here... Seor thought as she got her bow ready and took out a few arrows from her quiver. The vermin neared; the mouse was right, there were about onescore of them, 17 to be exact. Seor notched an arrow and pulled it back, aiming for an ermine that only had one ear. When the group of vermin neared, the mouse whispered to Seor.** I don't think they've noticed us yet. **Nodding, Seor focused on her foe.** Shoot! **Two arrows, shot in the air, followed by several pebbles. They rained down on the group, falling one, knocking two down, and slaying two. The otters at the boulders shot out pebbles the size of a fist, which hit a stoat right in the middle of the eyes, belting another, and giving additional injuries to others. Seor shot another arrow, slaying a ferret, and so did another otter, before the vermin noticed the flash of colours by the woods. They roared in fury and charged.** Everyone, draw yore weapons and charge!

"Oh, I didn't know that was all we where doing... sorry." *Dantin then heard yells coming from behind them, where they had left the main group. He turned and saw them engaging more vermin near the edge of the woods. He sped up his pace so he was directly behind Fishrudder, tapped him on the shoulder, and said in a loud whisper.* "Sir! Their getting attacked by more vermin back there! Look to be outnumbered too. Should we just keep going?"
