5 Days has passed

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


Jake is here, standing and looking a little bored today; he hasn't been on guard duty too long it would seem.

Oak walks up to the wall, Maxtor trailing behind him, and walks up to the rampart "G'mornin'

Jake looks over at the two and nods a hello "Hallo...not anything going on...yet"

Maxtor gulps, "Didn't Bloodclaw say that after 5 days he'd k-kill Silverfangs?" he asks, a look of half nervousness, half anger on his face.

Jake frowns as he remembers and nods 'I do remember him saying that, but…Try not to worry, wot...besides maybe someone found him by now"

Oak nods. "Err, 'an 'eee usually comes wid a dead body 'bout now"

As if by summoning, Bloodclaw comes walking down the dirt road, clutching a bloody piece of Silverfang's Cloak in hand, and grinning. He approaches the gate and smiles. "Hello, you lot look down, well I say...why's that?". He holds up the bloody cloak and grins.

Oak looks at Jake. "Can I get my Bow, can I kill 'im now, Can I...Please?"

Jake looks as he sees Bloodclaw and glares at him, he looks at the cloak and the rat, he looks back to Oak and mutters to himself, "You may not be the only one who wants him dead"

Pike is just now walking up to the ramparts, or at least he starts to and tops...hating high places, he tilts his head "Wha' the season goin' on up 'here?"

Maxtor points down to Bloodclaw. "Bloodclaw wants you dead, so he killed Silverfangs, he killed Silverfangs...I'M GONNA KILL HIM!”

Bloodclaw laughs, and sings "I killed Silverfangs, I killed Silverfangs, hahahahahahahahahaha!"

Oak is on his knees, holding up his hands. "Can I kill 'im, please...how 'bout now?..no?, now?...how 'bout..now?"

Pike blinks; he makes his way to the top of the ramparts now and looks down at Bloodclaw "Now ye look...here...ya..ooohhhhhh' he closes his eyes and grabs ahold of the wall top and gulps, he is silent and then speaks shaky a little,.."You..ya ..." he frowns and sits down, not liking the view from here.

Oak goes from begging to laugh. "Tough 'ol seadog's afraid 'o heights, hehehehehehe. Did 'ye 'ere that Jake, 'yer pals afraid 'o 'ites"

Jake frowns at Pike, he glares at Bloodclaw, "Someone should kill you rat, I know he wants to real bad" he points to Oak, he keeps speaking to Bloodclaw " Maybe you should leave, wot else ya want now...death, like your death maybe?"

Bloodclaw is also laughing, holding up the cloth. "No, I come to announce a death my friend, the old fox, err, whatzisname...Silverfangs, he's dead, killed 'im. Now hand over the seadog named Pike before you suffer more deaths....at a faster rate"

Maxtor glares down from the wall top. "Go away, Bloodclaw, or I'll cave your skull in with my staff"

Pike closes his eyes as he stands and growls, he turns, opening one eye to see the rat is still there and quickly closing it, "Bloodclaw....ya needs ta leave, ye want trouble...I can gives trouble to ya...lots.remember?"

Jake looks around to see whom else may be around and looks over at Pike and back to Bloodclaw 'Yea and if you kill anyone else, your be hunted down and slayed"

Bloodclaw laughs maniacally. "I get away with what I want, old hare. I'm Bloodclaw The Terror, I've slayed hundreds, and greater beasts then you have fallen before my might"

Oak nods, as he looks at Jake. "Tis true"

Pike manages to look down at the rat now, "Yea...how bouts ya leav' me mates alone..before I decides ta show ya pay, did once can do it again!!"

Bloodclaw laughs. "I don't intend on being fooled twice, and what I don't intend, does not happen, what I intend however..will. So, Pike...come to die" .

Maxtor shakes his head. "Don’t' do it Pike, it's just what he wants...he'll kill you and then plow through everyone else anyway...we need you right now"

Pike glares at the rat, he is focused on the rat only right now and has, for now, forgotten just how high up he really is, he growls "I 'hould show ye me....blades, pain and more pain!!" He glances at Maxtor and looks down at the stones of the walkway of the wall top, he kicks the wall and closes his eyes, and he looks away from the rat and towards the abbey grass.

Jake goes to stop Pike and then waits to see if he is going down or not "He'll just kill you...and someone once told me, don't fight in anger, gets you killed faster"

Oak smirks. "'ooever told the ol' 'are that is smart...stay alive, so we can kill Bloody, then I don't care what 'ye do"

Maxtor nods to Pike. "Whoever said that is wise, sounds like something Silverfangs would say" he sobs. "If he was still alive"

Pike sits down now, he looks to them "Maybe he still be alive...never know with Bloodclaw..." he says thi so only they hear.

Bloodclaw laughs. "silverfangs is dead, silverfangs is dead, hand over the otter, or you're all dead....I march right into the abbey and slaughter the lot of you I will"

Oak laughs. "You ain't getting in 'ere Bloody, good luck 'wid 'dat one" he smiles, realizing there's no way Bloodclaw can get to him here.

Jake glares down at the rat "You will do nothing of the sort, not with me here...and others will stop you too...we won't hand over anyone..be it Pike or anyone, I suggest you leave or die quickly!!"

Pike sighs, he can't look down right now, his temper a bit toned down and it was the only reason he wasn’t afraid of the height.

Maxtor smiles, in a slightly hostile way, with a bit of a smirk in it. "We will all kill at once rat, no escape from that...right?"

Bloodclaw laughs, leaving the bloody cloak piece on the ground. "Alright, it's on your head then, I'm gatherin' an army...an army to kill the lot of 'ye"

Oak stops laughing. "Army?...did ee say Army...Bloody 'wid anudder 'orde...oh no!"

Pike listens as he mentions army and folds his paws over his chest "I killed most of his horde before...on a ship I did....course was maybe...15 of em then and most asleep in 'he room below deck"

Bloodclaw laughs. "So I'll be back...and watch 'yer,..err...Back" he stomps off, laughing manically.

Jake frowns, " if he gets friend...that can't be good"

Oak gulps, still shaking at the thought that Bloodclaw may be able to get to them. "W-what if Bloody gets into..into...the ab-b-abbey...i don't wanna d-die"

Maxtor shrugs. "I don't know, we fight our best, so is Silverfangs dead?"

Jake looks at them " It won't be that easy to get into the abbey"

Oak slowly shakes his head. "Bloody likes to bring a piece of his victim, a head, an arm..a..."

Pike looks at Oak "So, what ya saying?...."

Jake decide to listen for now as he thinks on what to do "Need to report the latest of this to Flicktail"

Oak gulps, and turns slowly. "Ee normally slaughters 'is victims, a Bloody death is always a Bloody death, is how I remember 'im...'ee's tellin 'de truth...killed 'undreds..'ee usually takes a piece 'o 'is victim and cuts it off..like a head or arm or leg 'err summat"

Maxtor shakes his head. 'That's just disgusting..." he then beams. "So you’re saying, Silverfangs..isn't dead?' .

Jake nods "So..maybe Sliverfangs isn't dead, wish was a for sure way of telling..wot about the cloak he had?"

Oak shakes his head. "Ee's trying ta trick 'ye...'I've seen 'im kill..'ee always takes a trophy....to show 'ee really killed 'im"

Maxtor breathes a sigh of relief. "He's alive!, oh wait till I tell Oz"

Pike stands slowly and looks at Oak "hat rat has killed me friends too..and me mother too.....burned down her tavern and laughed about it like it we' funny"

Jake nods " But for how long is he alive?" He looks at Pike and back to the others "Still need to find him before he...really is dead"

Oak nods. "He does that,". He turns to Maxtor. "Jus because 'yer fox grandpa is alive don't mean he'll stay alive 'fer long...he'll die in Bloody's care....bout time this wound heals, then I can show you where Bloody went, but alas" He holds his chest. "Back to 'de 'firmary I go". He walks off.

Maxtor frowns, the sudden mix of emotion isn't helping him. "But if Silverfangs is alive, we have to find him quick..."

Jake nods "Agree with that, we do need to find him and soon"

Maxtor nods. "I think we can trust this Oak fellow, he seems to know his stuff, and now that I have a metal staff, Bloodclaw can't break it". He smiles. "But we can't think without a bit of rest can we? I'm going off to the bunk room.
