One angry Badger
Location: Western Shores
characters Involved: Talisin, Braxton, Logan, Ryu, Paige
Braxton is sort of just wandering around the Shores now...There's a dagger in his paw and it looks like he's been cutting himself up, since his arm, face and even his shoulder is bleeding. He's just now debating weather or not to use the dagger fully.
Talisin comes walking down the shore. He found out that there was a badger wandering along the
beach, likely the one he was looking for. With each step he gets more and more angry when he sees
a large form up ahead. He looks up at Ryu and growls out, "I tell you this now before we get to him.
Do not let me kill him."
Ryu nods a little "ok." he says clinging to the badgers shoulder
Braxton was...so close...to driving the dagger into his stomach. In fact, he even tried to...but he only just cut himself again instead. "Oh...Why...why cant I just die!" He shouts out loudly to the skies, tears strolling down his face.
Unaware of whatever is brewing down the beach, Paige approaches from the south. It's a mild evening so far as those things go, if a little windy, and her blond hair is ruffled from the sweeping breeze that comes at her from the side. She has a sort of wandering, aimless gait.
Talisin glares at Braxton and reaches up to remove the otter from his shoulder, setting him in the sand. "Braxton!" he yells out, fury driving his voice.
Braxton just decided to Drive the dagger into his already cut shoulder...so...now he has a dagger in his shoulder! of course, just as Talisin shows up. "Leave me alone!" he growls.
Ryu is very confused and has no idea what is going on but he allows the badger to take him off his shoulder
Talisin strides quickly to the slightly larger badger and snarls, "Hit her?! Like bloody hell I'm going to leave you alone!" Then he takes a swipe at Braxton with his claws when he gets close enough, "Attacking your own friend like that..."
Paige gets a little closer, seeing the badgers now. Her brows lift, expression more curious than
cautious. It's not like the vixen is particularly threatening - and her fur color keeps her kind of inconspicuous as she gets closer.
Braxton turns to look at Tali before getting Swiped across the face, claw marks now bleeding on his cheek as he falls over into the sand. "unh..."
Talisin is on top of Braxton in an instant, straddling his opponents chest. He grabs the dagger and
pulls it out of the other badgers shoulder, throwing it to the surf. Then he makes a fist and sends it
into the side of Braxton's face with all of the strength of a blacksmith.
Ryu squeaks out "don't kill him!"
You Broke his face! Brax lets out a loud grunt before frowning, spitting a few teeth out onto the sand.
Brax was mad now, thank you. He aims a Hard punch into Talisin's stomach
Paige's large ears flatten. She edges closer, tail tucking near her leg. "Uhm." She hesitates, watching the two badgers, keeping far enough back to not get accidentally hit.
Talisin grunts from the punch, the makes another swipe at Braxton's face with a snarl. He bares his
teeth, "Think you can hit her and not deal with the consequences?! And you dare to preach about honor to me," he spits out, "You make me sick..."
Ryu runs up to the badger "thats enough, you said to make sure you don't kill him, back off!" he screams
Braxton gets punched again. "You little..." he then goes to Kick other badger off of him, by throwing him over his head. "Get off me" he growls.
Logan walks calmy up and watches the fray tossing aside the naginati he rolls up his sleeves and cracks his knuckles meaningly and rumbles out dangerously. "Save soome fer meh, Tali, Ah goot one from a wee doe rabbit that 'e threw against ah wall!"
Talisin gets thrown off of Braxton, but he rolls and is on his feet. He growls and looks towards the
sound of the voice. "What?" he asks incredulously. He looks back at Braxton, "Not enough to beat on the so called beast you love? You have to go and attack others too? Ryu...stay back. I don't want you to get hurt."
Braxton quickly stands up. He was Even more mad now. "Dont you think I feel bad enough!" he growls. "Why do you think i was planning to kill myself Hm!? Idiot" He growls watching Talisin for a few moments.
Paige edges back a step. Her tail bristled out and gives little flickers side to side. "Hi. Uhm?" She steps closer, reaches, and tries to take ahold of Talisin by the arm. ".. please stop."
Ryu looks at him "you ask me to keep you from killing him so stop." he says frowning "can't you see, he feels bad enough?" he asks standing in the way
Logan gives a snarl, baring white teeth. "Och, kill yerself, ye coward!" he spits out, "Rooning away! Same thing! Ain't ye man enough tae face yerself, laddy buck?" He addresses Braxton with scorn.
Braxton Glares at Logan. "I went back to her to try to make things right and all she did was push me away" he shouts.
Talisin glances down at Paige for a moment, "You don't know what he's done. Please stay back."
Wow...Braxton has him so angry he's actually being somewhat plesant towards the vixen. He then yells over Ryu to Braxton, "Do you blame her? After what you did?" He looks at Ryu, "I'm not going to kill him. It's what he wants," then he looks back to Braxton, "Coward."
Braxton shrugs. "You know what. I am a Coward. You want me dead, so does she...so why stop me Hm?" he asks, taking his axe off his back and throwing it down. "I'm finished" the badger turns to walk away.
"I'm certain I have a fairly clear idea of what he's done," the vixen says, her voice naturally fairly low and quiet. Her hand stays on Talisin's arm, small fingers grasping. "All the same. Stop. All of you..."
Ryu doesn't move just stays in the way
Taking another step forward and calls out in his bass voice to the badger "Everyoone 'as evil in 'em, but tha' dooesn't mean ye run from i'!" He strides forward and picks up the battleaxe, ordering
Braxton in a commanding voice. "Now coome back an' take up yer weapon! Show 'em ye ain't ah coward by livin through yer pain! Ye can turn it ool around!"
Talisin takes a quick step towards Braxton, likely pulling Paige along with him. Looks like it would take
the three others to actually stop him. "Drop your axe and admit to cowardice won't get you out of this Braxton," he growls.
Paige is jerked a little by Talisin's forward step, and lets go. "This is unnecessary," she says to the group, looking ruffled.
Braxton shrugs. "I wont turn it around because no one wants me around in the first place" he still walks away. They dont seem to know he was drunk at the time...heh...heh...heh..."Leave me alone!"
The big Hare sighs and rolls his eyes to heaven, taking off a quick run he speeds toward the retreating Badger and at the last second leaps and drives his knee forward at the base of his neck.
He hated to do this but it would probably save Braxton's life.
Braxton Wasn't expecting that. He turned around at the wrong moment when he was going to wave goodbye to everyone...the kick didn't land on the back of his neck...instead it landed on his nose...which sort of...made a loud crunch as he flew back. "What...is the matter with you!" He growls.
Talisin continues to advance towards Braxton, going to step around Ryu. He still has fury in his eyes as he flexes his claws.
Paige watches.
Ryu looks at the badger for a moment moving in his way again "you don't seem like your calm enough to not kill him." he says frowning
Logan tosses the axe in the air and catches hit by the blade, holding the shaft down to the grounded badger. "Get up. Take the axe. Forget it all. Start all over again." He orders, shooting Talisen a glance hinting he should probably lay off now.
Braxton frowns and growls at the fact his nose is bleeding madly. The axe is taken though and only placed back on his back as he applies pressure to his nose. "unnh..."
Talisin frowns when he looks at Ryu. The boy had done good. Tali was likely going to kill him. He points a claw at Braxton, "You may start over. But you are not welcome at my shop until you prove that you are right in the head. That is my final warning to you Braxton." Then he turns and starts back towards the town and his new shop.
Braxton glares at Talisin and just decides to lay back. "Someone please...get me my dagger" he glares up at the sky.
Ryu looks over at brax before following the badger jumping on his shoulder again
Talisin threw the dagger into the sea. Good luck.
Ryu looks at talisin "we going home now?" he asks
Braxton Frowns and sighs. He just glares up. "Kill me..." he mutters to the hare. "Please..." nope. doesn't look like he wants a fresh start.
Logan sighs and rolls his eyes toward heaven. Two badgers, one is a berserker and one is a nutjob.
Lovely. He holds down a paw to the badger to help him up. "Get up. Get it back together. Go do what any beast in his right mind would do." He jerks his thumb toward the smithy. "An' tha' AIN'T killin' 'em!"
Braxton just...pushes the paw away and lies there, no longer moving. Just.../staring/ right up at the sky, thinking.
