The Unlikelyest (closed)

"How long does this go on?"

Ravax stopped surprised at the the question. She hadn't really thought about it. after giving it a moment she said "When ah found et, et wnet off en both directions as far as ye kould see, from there et took meh a good 'alf hour ta get where we are,"

[The Skarzs]

"Hmm," Bur grunted. He didn't speak again for a while, just concentrating on walking forward with the path.

[Faiyloe]

((Time jump))

They had been waking for a little over 2 hours and the sun was getting low. The path had widened out just like she had said and the going had been easy. "See ah told yew so, we'll be through en ano'er 'our," She said. Her statement however was short lived. After taking another few paces the path started to thin and soon after that it disappeared completely. 

[The Skarzs]

"Nice going, ferret," grumbled Burian. "Any other ideas?" He pulled out his kukri and started hacking away at the brush.

[Faiyloe]

"Mah way was still faster," Ravax said sulkily floowing behind him muttering to her self under her breath. "'E should be grateful, ef 'e 'ad et 'is way we 'ud  still be 'acking at un'erbrush fer hours on end. Ah save 'im some time. Ah show 'im 'ow ta get threw this mess an' all 'e kin do es blame meh. Of all tha ungreatfull sourgutted waterdogs..."

[The Skarzs]

"If you're done muttering, would you mind coming here for a second?"
Burian was looking up at an ancient trunk of a tree, its bark blackened from age and its branches bare from being choked of life by the surrounding brambles. The tree wasn't too far from the side of where Bur was slashing a path, which was good for what the otter needed.
"I'm going to get in closer to that tree. You're a good climber, so you'll have an easier time getting up there and seeing if there's an end to this hellish patch."

[Faiyloe]

Ravax stopped for a moment and looked at the tree. Climbing that monstrosity would not be a problem at all. When Burian had cleared a way to the tree she climbed up the tree and was at the top in no time, well as close to the top as she could get. To her  right was the sun set and before her was the forest. She climbed back down and gave her report. "ef'en we go that'a ways," She said pointing a little farther to her left from the direction they where going, "whe'll be out en 2 hours. but et'll get dark a'fore then," She said   

[The Skarzs]

"Better than nothing," said Bur. "It'll be tough, but I'll get through." He wiped sweat from his brow and continued in the way that Ravax had said. He was getting tired, though he refused to show it.

[Faiyloe]

"'Ere ef ye give meh mah dagger ah could 'elp ye," She said, she did have another dagger, three to be exact counting the one Burian had, but the two she still had where to short for this job. "Ef yer worried 'bout meh leaven ye, then rest easy, ah 'ave no ententions av leaven ye just yet, not till ah get some fish," She said licking her fangs with anticipation. 

[The Skarzs]

After a moment of consideration, Burian grudgingly gave Ravax his kukri. "Use this: It will do a far better job than your dagger. Besides, I said I was keeping the dagger, and so I shall." He folded his arms as a sign that that was the final verdict.

[Faiyloe]

"Fine," She said taking the weapon from him and began hacking away at the underbrush. They took turns like this for the next 2 hours before they finally made their way out of there. By this time it had been dark for over an hour and Ravax was exhausted. She dropped the kukri and plopped herself down by a tree.

[The Skarzs]

"Thank you. . . for the help." Bur took a pear from his pack and gave it to Ravax. "Have this." The otter took back the kukri and sat himself against a tree opposite the ferret, and leaned his head back against it, falling asleep almost immediately.

[Faiyloe]

Ravax took the pear and ate it before falling asleep as well, really and truly asleep. She needed it to make up for the lost hours the night before.

[The Skarzs]

OOC: Time-skip. (We're having a lot of those, aren't we? )

BIC: Burian woke to a dark sky that let down drizzle in a constant fall. Standing up and shaking himself, the otter went over to Ravax and shook her. "Wake up."

[Faiyloe]

Ravax groaned and rolled over "Leave meh alone otter," She grumbled. A large drop that had collected on the end of a branch let go and landed on her face, "Hey! What was that fer?" She said sitting up and wiping her face "Oh et's rainin'," She added after looking up at the sky.
