Flicktails Capture
Hidden Pathway(#136346R)
This path is hidden with thick trees and thorn bushes. Tall grass and a few wild flowers grow here in warmer months. A couple blackberry bushes line the walkway on either side of the path. The path is lined with black rocks and dead leaves and heads into some thick woodlands.The path is very narrow and every so often a twig will be on the path.It may be best to go back to the more familar woodlands.

The Tall Cloaked Badger is hiding in the darkness, with a smug grin on his face, he smirks softly and goes over to Blackfur, whispering in a voice softly enough that Flicktail cannot hear him. "It's the Fox Master...He has arrived"
Flicktail's large ears perk and begin searching about "oi hears someone....these ears be fer more then jus good luck."
Blackfur looks over where Nightmare has mentioned and grins "Lets hope this plan goes well...." he talks low and nods to a couple ferrets nearby,he rasies an eyebrow and motions the ferrets to start to block off the fox from leaveing.
Nightmare looks at his boss, his pure black eyes penetrating the slightest pinch of light in the area where Blackfur stands, perhaps darkening his already black heart. "Master.....do we attack the fox now?"
Flicktail has stopped his large black ears moving about "Oi hear somein Jo..." he says without much concern.
Jo catches up, a pack slung over his shoulder.
Blackfur watches and nods as he smiles coldly,the two ferrets are in place as is the badger,he gets his sword out"But of course"
Nightmare smiles coldly, and steps out of the bushes towards Flicktail, he has a ferret with him...not that he really needs it. He pulls up his sword, and grins at the fox. "Hello Fox"
Jo puts his pack on the rest of the way, tightening the straps. He reaches into his tunic, keep his paw there.
Flicktail blinks "oh..a friendly Badja...ello thar.....No need for that Suh..Oi be o Redwall abbey, friend ta all beasts sworn tado no harm"
Blackfur slips out from behind Flicktail and smiles coldly,his voice cold "Friendly badger?....I knew of one of those,heard he is ill..." he has his sword in paw, "Hello there...champ"
Jo frowns, "What do ye' wan' with Oz?" He murmurs.
Nightmare laughs coldly at the fox's comment. "You've sworn to do no harm hmmmm....Well". He pulls up his pure black sword, in a very unfriendly gesture. "Well, it too bad for I'm have NOT made that oath"
Flicktail asks, "are ye a Badja Lord? Do not think me any common vermin..oi carry e mark o Redwall Abbey, no beast that do no harm will be harmed...." he smiles to Jo "Look oi travel wi an otter and oi be a otterfox"
Jo blinks, and gets a dark look. "Kowell..."
Blackfur looks at the otter,"What do I want with ...Oz..lets see...head on a silver platter.." He looks at Flicktail as the ferrts block his and Jo path...he looks at the otter"Oh the bat, he ..a drink disagreeded with him,he died"
Jo shoots a glare at Blackfur, "Of course it did, my uncle has done the same thing. Though the vermin was smart enough not to drink it."
Flicktail asks, "who died?" he looks at teh ferrets "Oi know a stot or 2..." hiseyes narrow "wait a min...be you Blackfur?"
Nightmare smiles coldly. "No, I would not have dealt with the disgrace of being a badger lord". He pauses to laugh manically. "No Mr. Fox...I want you to die"
Blackfur smiles coldly at Flicktail and aims his sword at him"Yes..Blackfur, leader of the Black Rose...and you and the otter are now my..permit guests..or slaves what ever you want to call it fox...or,yeah your Flicktail..Redwall champ."
Flicktail blinks "um..kin ye make up yer mind..ye gonna killme or make me yer guest?"
Jo backs up against flicktail, "Flick, I would jolly well love some tea. But on good terms without a blade pointed at me."
Nightmare laughs. "Yes Fox, Although If it was my intention you'd both be dead....but it is my Master's intention...not mine". He looks at Flicktail. "But trust me when I say this...I am going to have so much fun with you". He just stands there with a cold smile on his face.
Flicktail says, "Um...Jo would this be a bad time ta mention oi av no weapons?"
Jo pats flicktail on the shoulder, "There are other things besides metal."
Blackfur growls low, "Slaves you fool!..surround him !grab him! get the otter too!" He grins and goes to lay the sword he has at the fox thoat,not to kill but show he means bussiness.
Nightmare goes to grab the otter. "Blackfur wanted the Fox alive....I don't have to keep you alive".
He grins. "But if you go with me, I promise not to KILL you"
Flicktail says, "um..Jo.....there be abit many o them, and while yes 1 Goodbeast equals 10 vermin...oi think it moight be foolish ta try anathin roight now with the Long Patrol commin and the Sparra warriors"
Jo ducks around the grab, "Hows about I cooperate, ye' don' gotta grab me."
Blackfur growls low, he looks to Nightmare"Lead them to my slave cells..and no the otter lives too...need slaves"
Jo says, "we only gots so much time flick. Ye' wanna play duck and grab at a chance for rescue?"
Nightmare nods at the otter, he pulls out a knock-out dagger, he goes to stab the otter in the upper arm with the knock-out dagger. "But...to make sure you don't struggle..."
The two ferrets with them go to grab Flicktail from behind,while Nightmare deals with the otter.."Come on lets go before anyone hears something"
Flicktail eeps and falls backwards...'ACCIDENTALLY' kicking out toward the other ferret's groin.
Jo tries to dodge the stab but overcorrects, 'Sorry pedat' He thinks to himself. He grunts as the dagger stabs him. Making sure the vermin aren't looking he takes a quick lick at his fingers.
Nightmare grins at Flicktail. "Your with us now". He kicks Flicktail. "Champ"
The Ferret groans as Flicktail kicks him. "Grrr....you work for us now....as a SLAVE". He grins at Flicktail. "Where's your big bad slaver attidute now?"
Flicktail oophs he is kicked and pants looking up "Oi av a slaver at i tude?"
Blackfur smiles coldly "You use to be a slaver...long time ago"
Flicktail tries to get up "Slavery be a BAD thing..specially dibbuns....why not be good beasts and we ave some food for ya"
Blackfur smiles coldly "Gee a gift,thanks for the food..WE will enjoy it,not sure you will as your be in the cells soon...lets go"
Flicktail says, "I ment food at th abbey"
Smiles coldly "Oh not going..-there-"
They go off and walk aways into the woods nad over some paths and finally come to the slave area of the Black Rose.
Black Rose:Large Slave Cell(#171634R)
There are many unpleasant rooms in this dark place, but this is one of the most unpleasant. It is not an air of evil which affects the senses, nothing to intimidate here. It is an air of misery. The room is low and long and room lacks any windows or torches, so the only light is the small amount which slips between the cracks in the door. There is a sort of spoiled smell in the room, as it seems to be the only one not diligently cleaned, and one can easily imagine the smell belonging to some beast that may have expired long ago and left his stench behind. A few of those who are not so tired from a full day's work have attempted to sort it out a bit, pushing the debris into the corners of the room. Beds are stacked up in two layers along both sides of the room with barely a paw's width between each, simple wooden boards at the foot of each frame provide as a ladder to the upper bunks. There are as many mattresses pressed in here as space allows, the only room on the floor to walk is a narrow hall.

Flicktail says, "kinda small room..kin we see somein a bit larger?"
Nightmare drops Flicktail, and starts chaining him to a small cot. "Nope...it doesn't get any bigger than this...unless of course you want to spend the night in the torture room". He grins. "Which I would be happy to let you stay in"
Flicktail asks, "no pillow?"
The ferrets make sure the otter is unable to get away either and back off,Blackfur raises an eyebrow"Look fox,..slaves dont get pillows,this isnt a happy time fun place" He gets close to his face "Your a slave and you do what I say..ok"
Flicktail blink blinks "we can't ave fun doin wot ya say?
Jo groans and looks at flicktail through hooded eyes, "Flick...jus' sleep. Don' keep em going, or they wont go away."
Nightmare finishes chaining Flicktail to the Cot. "You sleep here". He grunts, "and when we tell you to work...you work". He glares at the fox. "and if you trouble, well...I already told you about the torture room"
Flicktail glances to Jo "you always wanna sleep?"
Blackfur glares at the otter and walks over to him"There wont be any ecapeing as you can see...stone,hard ground as no mole can dig it..strong doors and locks...enjoy ya stay" He locks them both in and grins.
Jo manages to drag himself to sit by Flicktail, "It...it was that dagger."
Flicktail says, "aye them dagger be no fun..." he looks at Blackfur and waggles his fingers.
Nightmare says loud enough for everyone to hear. "And for company....you get friendly Bookman over here...he's a slave too". He looks at the ferrets. "Relief them of their weapons and valubles"
The ferrets proceed to take away any weapons,anything that can be one or a lock pick,takes away vaulesables and..flicktails knapsack :P.
Flicktail looks at Jo "Oi don't think e knows wot appens to verminous beasts if they stays too long"
Jo leans heavily against flicktail, "I...I know." Glad he managed a little herbal mix right before he got stabbed, he keeps awake.
Flicktail says, "don't worry Jo..may takes a whoile butthis muct be wot Martin were warnin bout"
Jo sighs, "Flick, I may have had a couple visions about martin. But I cannot remember them, the drug is making me a bit forgetful."
Bookman looks at the new inhabitats of the slave cells. "Oh hi, I'm Bookman".
Blackfur smiles "Well sleep tight and do let those bed bugs bite"
Flicktail says, "oi be Flicktail..flicky to me friends"
Flicktail looks atthe Badjer "Ya got fleas"
