The Quest For The Black Treasure; RP thread Part Two

[Lagg]

Lagg turned and watched as the tempered squirrel ran off into the woods, and he shook his head sadly. "Arnath is it? I can go after him if you want me too, but I would hate to leave you here. Although he does seem terribly injured and it seems you care for him rather deeply." explained  Lagg. He then looked in the mouse maids direction as he held her paw firmly in his grasp, not wanting someone blind running...well, blindly into the woods. "It's your decision marm."

[Faiyloe]

"Thank you, Sir Oh please do I could follow him rightly enough, but can't keep up. Please be careful. You might have to knock him out again," Arnath said. It was true she could make her way threw the forest quite well but keeping up with the angry squirrel was the part she could not do.  "Don't worry about me I can handle myself,"

[Lagg]

The otter nodded and turned the blind mouse in the direction towards Redwall. "Ok Arnath, just head this way towards Redwall Abbey and you'll be near the main gate. A group of Redwallers are on the battlements so they'll notice you as soon as you come out of the woods. I know your blind, but I"m sure if Martin the Warrior is watching over you, he'll make sure you reach there safely." And with that the otter turned back, picking up the trail the stubborn squirrel left in the snow. "I'll bring him back for you marm, don't worry." And soon the otter was off, chasing after the maddened squirrel, wishing this could have been avoided.

"Sir! It's me Lagg! Where did you run off too! I would like to bring you back to the Abbey! Arnath is truly worried about your state of being!" explained the otter, almost losing the trail the squirrel had made. "I don't mean to offend you but vermin could be out here and well...wouldn't want anything else bad to happen to you." Of course at this moment Lagg just noticed he hadn't brought a weapon in case something like that were to happen. "Please, show yourself. I promise, as soon as your taken care of back at the Abbey you will be free to go!" Of course Lagg knew calling for the squirrel wouldn't be the best choice in case vermin were around, but he didn't have a choice considering he didn't want Arnath to worry about either of them any longer than needed be.

OOC: Hey Rachel, let me know if this is ok with you on the second part. I can edit if you want me too.

[rachel25]

OOC: That's all fine.

BIC: Toka, had with great difficulty, climbed into a tree nearby. He heard every word the otter said, from his hiding place among the branches. He snorted at the mention of vermin, he could handle himself, and had for seasons. Who was it who got him out of that ****** prison cell? Him. Who had killed the warlord of the place, many of his guards, and set fire to the place all without getting injured? Him. He could look after himself.
In fact, Toka was thinking about just tree jumping away, though that might be a little difficult in his present condition, but then he thought of why he came here in the first place. That riddle.
Toka remembered finding the riddle, on a dying searat. At the time he hadn't known what it was, but it had seemed important, so he had kept hold of it. Actually, although Toka had never told anyone ever, he couldn't read. The only way he'd found out what the riddle said, was when he ran into a group of travellers. They had told him what it said.
"Give me one good reason why I should go back!?!" Toka shouted down from the tree. He had already decided to go back, but he still wanted it to look like he wouldn't go back without a fight.

[Lagg]

Lagg stopped moving when he finally heard the squirrel ask him why he should go back. The otter gave it some thought and having only met the squirrel and Arnath for only a minute or so, decided that would be the best course. "Well, like I said before, Arnath is worried about you Sir. She may not look but she sounds deeply concerned for you." answered the otter. "If you come back with me, like I said, I promise you that if you want to leave after your injuries have been taken care of..well, I'll personally make sure plenty of vittles are given to you for your journey..!"

[Faiyloe]

The thought that first came to Arnaths mind was 'I know you know I'm blind, its not like you cant see either,' She wanted to add the this silent retort 'and I'm not deaf either,' but refrained though she never said any of it so it really didn't matter. The Otter if not rather chivalrous was treating Arnath like she was helpless and that was on thing that she hated. If she was any other creature he would have been quite right to have done what he had done but Arnath had never been one to let the rules of limitations tell a person what they can and can not do. All her life she had lived in the forest and  threw hard work and perseverance she had  learned its ways. She could make her way around the forest even better than some by the sound as it bounced off her surroundings and her cane. She was not about to let Him treat her as some one to be lead along. She turned around and followed the sound of the otters retreating foot steps and his voice. he made it rather easy in fact. When they reached the aria where Toka had hidden himself She knew his location be for he revealed it.

Part of the reason She had taken such a shin to the vicious tempered squirrel was how he treated her. Perhaps it was a little cold but he did not in anyway treat her like she needed to be lead about. He let her do her own thing.

Kaijo wiped his blade with his cloak "Lucky this thing is red" he muttered, Misak nodded in agreement, she was busy retrieving some crossbow bolts from the corpse of one of the vermin
"Look at that" she said "I'm losing my touch, should have only taken one bolt to kill him"
"Don't beat yourself up about it"

"Um, hi?"

Kaijo turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a squirrel standing in the open wallgate "Hello there" he said "my name is Kaijo and this is my wife Misak, how might we address you?"

[rachel25]

Toka eye rolled, was that seriously the best he could come up with? But then Toka spotted Arnath, "I do I know your not lying?" He shouted, watched Arnath closely. He was trying to work her out, why did she seem to like him so much? No one liked him, let alone helped him.

Kaijo wiped his blade with his cloak "Lucky this thing is red" he muttered, Misak nodded in agreement, she was busy retrieving some crossbow bolts from the corpse of one of the vermin
"Look at that" she said "I'm losing my touch, should have only taken one bolt to kill him"
"Don't beat yourself up about it"

"Um, hi?"

Kaijo turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a squirrel standing in the open wallgate "Hello there" he said "my name is Kaijo and this is my wife Misak, how might we address you?"

"Arya, sir, my name is Arya." The squirrel replied in a friendly, but guarded, tone.

[Jetthebinturong]

Kaijo wiped his blade with his cloak "Lucky this thing is red" he muttered, Misak nodded in agreement, she was busy retrieving some crossbow bolts from the corpse of one of the vermin
"Look at that" she said "I'm losing my touch, should have only taken one bolt to kill him"
"Don't beat yourself up about it"

"Um, hi?"

Kaijo turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a squirrel standing in the open wallgate "Hello there" he said "my name is Kaijo and this is my wife Misak, how might we address you?"

"Arya, sir, my name is Arya." The squirrel replied in a friendly, but guarded, tone.

Kaijo groaned "Please don't call me sir, it makes me feel old" Misak shook her head
"You don't want to be called a kitten, you don't want to be called an old man, make up your mind dear"
"People could just call me Kaijo, seeing as that's my name" Misak chuckled
"Coming up with nicknames is more fun kitten" Kaijo flushed
"Sila, tidak di hadapan orang lain"
"Saya akan menghubungi anda apa yang saya suka, di hadapan sesiapa yang saya mahu"
"That's very aggravating you know"
"I do, I just don't care darling"
"Well aren't you considerate" Misak flashed a grin
"I like to think so" Kaijo groaned and slapped himself in the forehead
"Fine, whatever, I don't even care anymore"
"So I can call you kitten?" Kaijo's eyebrow twitched
"If you must" Misak laughed
"It would seem it bothers you more than you are attempting to lead us to believe"
"That's preposterous"
"Is it really kitten?"
"Yes"
"You're still blushing"
"Damnit"

[Cornflower MM]

Arya laughed. "Okay then, Kaijo, Misak. It's a pleasure to meet you."

[Jetthebinturong]

Kaijo and Misak nodded "And yourself" said the former "would you help us drag these bodies out of sight? I do not think the people of Redwall will take kindly to seeing the corpses of vermin every time they look over their battlements"

[Cornflower MM]

"Gladly." Arya replied, stepping forwards and grabbing one of the bodies. "Any particular place you had in mind?"

[Jetthebinturong]

"Not really" said Kaijo, grabbing the other "just somewhere out of sight" he began to drag the corpse over to the edge of the forest

[Cornflower MM]

Arya followed Kaijo, frowning as she heaved. The vermin was a bit heavy.
