Rowan and Jamie let out a small, thick sigh as they emerge from the unkempt underbrush. Jamie, who had been pricked by the thorn of a rose's stalk. Removing the black rose from her belt, she studied the curling petals. So delicate and yet they can cause much pain. She dropped the black rose and followed Rowan. He sat down at the base of a broad trunked yew and motioned for Jamie to join him. She sat beside him and smiled grimly. Rowan remarked, "Jamie, remember this. I will be at your side for the duration of the battle, but I am also here to avenge Raishel." Jamie clasped his armored paw softly. "Don't worry about my well being. I'll be able to take care of myself out there. Rowan, don't forget I knew Raishel before she met her untimely fate."

You are not the only one Rowan. I fight for vengence. Not because I feel like it, but because it is the honourable thing to do.
**Raiden's voice came from the oak tree's base. The oak was also next to the yew.**
Get some rest. You'll need it. From what I can gather from everything I've seen in the area, the vermin camp is only a few minutes away.

"I know that with prior knowledge Raiden. By the way, do you know what the vermin encampment is composed of?" Rowan nodded and as he waited for an answer, he settled back against the trunk and closed his eyes. Jamie shook her head and settled back beside Rowan.

No. That is part of the reason we are a large group.
**Raiden's voice was starting to sound sleepy in the noon-time heat.**

"Okay. I just had to ask to see if we had a layout of our enemy." Rowan and Jamie slowly fall into a light slumber, each of them planning their actions when in battle.

*Hour later.*
Wake up you dozy lot! We have work to do.
**Raiden was wide awake, he had been for a few minutes. He wanted the others to be awake and ready to move out.**

Rowan slowly awoke, his eyes peering over the tranquil surroundings. Then, as if by fate, an anxious feeling gripped his stomach as he remembered their whole purpose out in the wilderness. Sitting up, Rowan gently shakes Jamie. She opens her eyes seconds later and smiles softly. Rowan stands up swiftly, the urge in his stomach motivating his will of movement. He offers a paw to Jamie and she accepts as he helps her to her paws. They both stretch and pick their weapons up from the ground. As Rowan straps his long sword to his waist, they walk over to Raiden. "So then, the impending doom of the battle draws near sir?"

Aye,Get the troops into a skirmish line. We move towards the camp, first in observation, then in an attack. Understand?
**Raiden's voice changed to a softer tone.**
Do not trouble yourselves with the comming conflict for now. Till then, just keep eachother coverd, and watch my back as well.

Rowan and Jamie both salute stiffly and turn around. Walking opposite ways, they rally the troops into wakefullness. Returning to a sepcified spot near a large yew tree, the troops form up. Rowan and Jamie nod over to Raiden. "Ready sir."

Then we move.
**Raiden set out with a will of steel. Within minutes, the group reached the out-skirts of the vermin camp. Though calling it a camp was not a correct term. A verifiable Fortress was more correct. There was masses of the vermin, many times the number from the attack earlier.**
Son of a... Spread out. Into cover. Now!
**Raiden took cover near some trees. He was so intent on watching the camp, he did not reilise he was standing in front of a target painted black.**
LOOK OUT!!!!
**Rose, who was one of the mysterious strangers had seen a large beast set arrow to bow, and fire at the target. She made a decision that cost her life. She shoved Raiden out of the way and got pinned to the tree. The spear-sized arrow removed her cloak, un-masking her. The arrow itself had entered her stomach, but missed her spine. She was hurting bad, and she was barely alive when Raiden got up.**
Rose? ROSE!!
**Raiden dashed to his friend's side only to hear her dieing words.**
We... we snuck out... me, me and Zahi *cough* Beware... there are Werrets in that army... Becar...
**Her voice faded and droped off as she spoke and died. There was one of the massive lumbering beasts comming to see what it had hit.**
Reast In Peace Rose Amril, my friend.
**Raiden turned as the shadow of the Werret fell upon him. Almost faster than the eye could travel, Raiden drew his claymore and struck the foul abomination. The brute looked at the hole in it's stomach and it's looping insides and colapsed without a scream.**
I will have vengence... Swift vengence...
**Takeing a carved horn from his belt, Raiden lifted the grill of his helmet, put the horn to his mouth, and blew. Hard.**
DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHDUHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
**Droping the horn after shounding the charge, Raiden droped the grill of the viser, threw off his cloak, and charged.**
AVE IMPERIUM!!!!!!!

Taundor was at the back of the group when he heard a shout. He rushed ahead just in time to see Rose pinned to a tree, dieing. No. It can't be! Not another friend. Rose... dead? It's not possible. She wasn't with us... Taundor then realized about the two strangers. They had to be Zahi and Rose. Anger, rage, and vengeance bubbling inside him, Taundor howled at the enemy, and charged along side with Raiden. He drew his glaive, and roared out his challenge. "ICE AND BLOOD!!!! NORTHERN STRIKE!!!!!"

**Raiden heard the wolf's cry, and was silently grateful for his friend's help.**
Keep my back covered when we hit their ranks!
**The order was barely shouted as Raiden ran the first rat through with his long thin blade.**

Rowan shakes his head with exasperation and grim hatred as he watches Rose get pinned to a tree by an arrow. He draws his long sword and charges into the battle behind Raiden, his anger boiling over. Jamie grabs her bow and notches an arrow to the waxed string. Pulling it taunt, she aims and releases, taking one ferret in it's shoulder.

Taundor gave a bark of acknowledgement, and as Raiden killed the first rat, executed his attack. Right before he hit the ranks, Taundor tensed himself and jumped as high as he could in the air. The rats in the first couple of rows angled their weapons up, but Taundor smashed them away. When he landed, he began his signature move with the glaive; the spinning kick attack. He spun around and cut down the rats around him, and landed a few roundhouse kicks. "Raiden, do you want to do the combo move?"
OOC: In case you don't remember, this is when I grab your footpaws and spin you around.

OOC: I remember... It's fun...
BIC: Go right ahead, It'll give them something to worry about besides my blade.
**Raiden ducked the sweep of a weasel's sword, and his counter-strike eft the weasel on the ground, dead.**
