*Tasna stirred. There was blinding pain in her head. The otter slowly lifted her paw to feel for any blood. When she felt some where the stoat had hit her, she moaned and turned onto her side. As she opened her eyes, the room was spinning slightly. From under the table where the vermin had left her, she saw footpaws and fallen beasts. There was a small pool of blood next to her where she accidently placed her paw. Tasna shook the blood off and sat up. Holding her head in her paws, the ottermaid remembered what had happened* Right...Stoat...Okay. After she came to her senses she looked around for her cutlass, finding it next to the wall. Reaching for it, she saw a weasel run out of the tavern*

He'd kill me if anything happened to you!
**Ducking a fox's sword, her counter left him shivering on the ground as he had been gutted. Seeing the casual ease that the mouse had dispaced their comrade, the other soldiers rushed her. A few were wounded by Zahi's daggers, but they slammed her against a tree so hard that the breath was driven from her. Her daggers fell from her grasp as she collapsed to the forest floor, and ropes produced by the vermin wrapped around her paws. Before she could recover enought to cry out, a gag was produced, and so she was bound and gagged in the clutches of the vermin soldiers.**
Will you be okey Scratchfur? I want to see how Kaden's doing.
**Leaving a comrade was never easy for Raiden, but it was helped by his unease for his wife and Song's well-being. He had noticed Kaden leaving in a hurry, and so he was worried. The sweat garnered from hard fighting was glistening in the flickering light untill it was shadowed by the white steel, full-face helmet decending onto Raiden's head untill it had met the neck ring of the chest plate. Running through the melee, his twin swords brought death untill he reached the door and Kaden.**
What's happening out h... Never mind... RAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
**Raiden had noticed his wife's capture, that was the vermin's first mistake. The second was standing their ground as he raced forwards. If he had been a badger, they couldn't have been worse off from the bloodwrath. Raiden was angry. The last time he had been so angry had been five years before, in his homelands; The deaths of his little brother and sister had haunted his memory then, and now... Now they still haunted him, only so did all his dark deeds. If he allowed Zahi to die, there was no way anybeast could know, not even Raiden, what would happen if that were to come true. There was no way Raiden would let that happen either.**
LET HER GO!
**Raiden's mad charge would bring him into striking distance in seconds. But the vermin had one last dastardly trick to play; One of them grabbed Zahi and held one of her dagers to her throat. The meaning was clear; Stop, or she dies. It wasn't easy, but Raiden skidded to a halt, mere metres from the soldiers.**
Let her go. I'm warning you. You don't want to know what would happen to you if you kill her...
You are in no position to make threats scum. Where's the other one? We have your mouse. We saw the squirrel. Now where's our's?
I have no clue. Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.
**Shrugging his cloak to one side, Raiden lifted his longsword to point menicingly at the rat holding Zahi.**
I won't ask, or tell you again fishbrain, Let my wife go.

*Rinafera watched with amazement as his scimitar hit home. It struck the large fox in the torso, throwing off his balance and slaying the vermin. The hare's brown eyes flickered from the fox to the vixen, and from the vixen to the mouse. He got up, feeling chills run down his spine. The large sword was still on the ground, and Rinafera had no intention of moving it. He walked away, muttering to himself quietly. It had been a long day, and a tough fight. But there were more, and he knew that.*
Lets get flippin' ready, wot!

**SOng's frightened face saw Zahi captured, and she screamed, dispatching a creature wounded by her friends flying blades. Song heard squirrel mentioned after she had seen Raiden's mad race and charge. The maiden shivered as she stood in the edge of the bushes. She scooted beside Raiden, quivering violently in fear. Why didn't Brawn come? She suddenly forgot about him as vermin came in near her, So close, she could feel their hot breath on her neck as they made a tight circle.
The healers face blanched as she prayed silently that Laif was hiding.** Help ME!

Song, run! That's an request from old friend to old friend.
**Raiden's whisper was thankfully not heard by the soldiers as the stalemate continued.**
I'm warning you scum, let my wife go, of it will go very badly for you all.
**Sheathing his longsword, Raiden tossed the scimitar back along the trail. Dropping helmet, cheastplate, and gauntlets, Raiden stood with his arms outstreached by his sides.**
This is your last warning before I unleash something more feral and primal than I have ever unleashed with a blade. My thorn tattoos are not just decoration. They represent thecoils of a snake, and the jaws of mighty beasts. I'm dangerous while armed, but I'm leathal un-armed.

**Song's teeth chattered slightly, her terrified features peeking from beneath a cloak. One of the enemy had her paws tied up. She ground her teeth as she replied to Raiden.** 'friad I Can't Rai. I Stuck!

This. Is. Just. Not. My. Day. Tonight.
**Disregarding the seven blades pointing at his throat, Raiden dived under this first rat, and punched the second soldier in the stomach. As the third slashed at his head, Raiden shoved the winded ferret into the sword's path. The fourth wouldn't be having a family for a while when the dead ferret's sword hit him in the... Errr... "hurty spot on a lad". The third and fifth advanced on the mouse from both sides, along with the first and sixth vermin soldiers. it looked hopeless for the mouse as he put his paws behind his head, but just as the last soldier of the seven began to tie the rope around Raiden's paws, the mouse dived backwards and freed one paw. With the rope as a whip, The mouse had a longer reach, and could disarm his foes easier. Unfortunetly, the rat with Zahi smacked Raiden round the head with the hilt of one of Zahi's daggers. The world fadded to blackness as in the distance he saw a lone, mouse-like figure crossed the trail further down, and compleately ignored the battle. After Raiden had fallen, the vermin finished binding the mouse's paws together.**
OOC: There's a cross road a bit further down, and the figure took one of the side routes. All will become clear if the next post is that we have been taken away

**Song's awful rage boiled over the stubborn squirrel stamped a footpaw and glared reproachfully at the vermin. **How dare you!
**One of them tickled her under her chin and grinned, blasting disgusting breath into her face.** What y'a gonna do perty one?
**The maid's voice was low. **Kick you.
**THe vermin smiled what he thought a charming grin. Too bad he didn't notice Song's leather boots an dagger.** What?
**SOng screamed as she thrust a boot into the creature's stomach. SHe slit the rope on her paws as she did so, and stood, dagger in paw, a feirce loom on her face.** I said Kick you. now, back away frrom the scarred mouse and the other one, and run away screaming like little babies.

**Is K'od...**
**Zahi managed to bite through her gag and shout to Song.**
Run! Run before it's too late! Head... ugh...
**The rat holding her knocked her out like he had with Raiden; the dagger hilt.**
If you want your friends to live girl, I suggest you come with us, and bring your other friend too. (BTW he's refering to Laif.)
**More of the vermin leveld their weapons at Song as they surrounded her totally.**

Laif had done more than listen to Song. Laif was dashing full speed through the woods, never looking back. She had never run so much in her life! Panting, she came to a stop by the river. She frowned looking about. She'd have to jump across the river.
Just as she backed up, two sets of paws grabbed her arms. " Let go o' me!-mpgkggmphh!" Suddenly a gag was made silencing her as she struggled. Three ferrets had caught up to her.
One of the ferrets snickered, leaving the tying of the paws to his comrades. He backed away slowly, only to stop his steps, and fall onto his face, a dagger sticking out the back of his head. Down into the woods, Kaden could be seen dashing towards them.
Foolishly, the two ferrets threw their hostage aside and charged Kaden. Kaden's right blade parried the one ferret, then with his left, maimed the beast, then with a final spin, ended its life.
The remaining ferret, who foolishly allowed his comrade to strike alone, attempted to duel Kaden, but it was to no avail. The ferret found himself slain on the ground within seconds.
Kaden scowled, dropped his bloody blade and knelt by Laif, removing the pretty weasel maiden's gag. " Yew alright?" He asked in worry.
She paused and shook her head. " No...'n yer head, yer bleeding down your face! Kaden, you need medical attention...," She then paused and her eyes widened. " Kaden! The others! We have to get-look out!" She screeched at the end and at the top of her lungs.
Kaden turned just to be sent onto his back. A large weasel footpaw had slammed into his jaw. Kaden grunted and rolled a bit in pain, before looking up at his attacker.
Chief Vayne was an imposing threat, the exact one who had kicked Kaden. As for his fat son, he looked vicious, but was really as intimidating skill wise as a fruit fly.
Vayne chuckled and nodded to his son, who in return, picked up Laif and gaged her once more, nodding back to his father.
" Finally Laif, we 'ave yew back in time. Son, go tell the soldiers to do what they please with the others. Maybe we could use them as prisoners, may'hap not. Depends on the captain's decision. As for yew, golden weasel. You, are a skilled fighter. Me 'n my son watched from the brushes, that's why I've come to a realization."
"What, that yer son is a fat pig?" Kaden said chuckling, blood still staining his golden fur.
The chieftan gave a swift Kick to Kaden's already injured ribs and watched him squirm, laughing. " No, I realized that long ago. Now, I realized killing you when yer 'elpless like this wouldn't be...how should I say, 'honorab-"
"And yer honorable now?"
"Shut yer trap...now, I'm warning yew now. If I see you near anyone of my camp, I'll kill yew, Laif, 'n everyone in this precious peaceful area..."
Kaden chuckled, getting onto his knees weakly and laughing, coughing up blood. " Heh, funny, lemme tell you now. Yer gunta regret lettin' me live...'cause now, yer gonna die by my paws, 'n fer the peaceful creatures here, I'll let 'em kill yer son..." He said roughly.
"HAH! Speaking like the true vermin yew are now arencha? Well, good night!" He said, before clubbing Kaden over the head with his axe hilt, and then following his son with Laif in hands, towards the others.
OOC: Up to you guys since you rp the soldiers. You guys wanna be prisoners or end up just trying to save Laif or something then? OR, we could have some be prisoners, w/e.... I was debating where to go with my post and that's how I ended up...sorry if there's any problems.

OOC: Raiden and Zahi are K'Oed so there's nothing that thay can do to flee... until my post properly starts...
BIC: **Raiden had a burning headache as he slowly came to. As he tried to move his arms, he found that he couldn't do so. In fact his arms felt like they were on fire as they were tied to the tree branch above his head. When he tried to open his eyes he discovered that he had been blindfolded. As the rest of his senses awakend, he heard footsteps, but smelt a familiar beast.**
Zahi, you awake?
Barely... What did you think you were playing at?!? Throwing away your weapons like that was the most idiotic thing you've done to date, and you've done some very stupid things before.
**In contrast to Raiden, Zahi had been tied to the same tree in such a way, that she was sitting against it. Like Raiden however, she had been blindfolded.**
Well it's not like you did any better. I tried to keep them occupied in the tavern, but it's not my fault I got sent flying. Or that you got tied up. Sure I was stupid throwing my weapons away, but you know I do rash things when your life is on the line. You are the only one who makes me feel hope again Zahi Mersaidie Silversword. you knowI'd do anything I could to proect you.
Brave and foolish words for a weakiling. We'll soon beat that courage from you with some slavery.
Not in this lifetime fish breath. when was the last time you had a wash? I can smell you from over here. I can't see you, but I sure can smell you.
**For the first time since the show, Raiden was smileing. The thought of being enslaved for the second time in his life disgusted him, but he was determined to poke some fun at his captors anyway. The footsteps stoped, and Raiden's nose was assailed by the scent of foxes and of Laif.**
Well... You must be our gracious hosts. I can't say that I'm fond of the accomodations, or lack of that I have seen... Which is not much.
