**On the wall top, one of the weasels takes a sword swing on his gauntlet, which sends him toppling off the wall. He managed to dig his the clawed gauntlet into the stone to hang on, unsheathing a dagger off his shoulder and lancing it towards the stranger's ankle in one swift motion. The other weasel virtually ignores the fight and heads to the main building on the walltop, shattering a window with his metal claw**
**Meanwhile, in the woods, a vermin drops stone dead directly in front of Duckflesh, an arrow protruding from his chest. The two monitors disappear into the woods
to hunt their quarry**

*Nanalie, hearing the commotion, looked up to see the strange figure fighting for her side*
"Everyone! stop! Come here!"
*The redwallers huddle up and whisper, some scurry into the abbey, emerging with shields. Others add the shield carriers arrows to their quivers. The shield carriers and archers scurry up the battlements, making sure to cover themselves completely. The smoke, for once, is used to their advantage. 7 sets of 6 shield carriers emerge and one archer. The shield carrieres make a little house for the archer, All of them staying on the inside of the shields. Two shields face forward. Two shields are held on top and the weight is held partly by the two shields on each side. Everyone crouches down and the only open area is that of which is facing behind. Nanalie stays on the ground, keeping watch. The archers peek out through a nook created as big as an eye. They pick their target, draw their arrows, and fire!*

*The figure steps away from the weasel hanging off the wall and then kicks him off. He turns to the other weasel and brought his arm up. His hand clenches something and something akin to a crossbow bolt shoots out of his sleeve and straight towards the weasel in the window.*

((Do you mean the gatehouse?))
*Nanalie sees the weasel remove himself from the fight. She notches and arrow and fires through the open window. She climbs up on the battlements and hurries after the vermin. She fires another arrow as she runs, finally reaching the ?Gatehouse?*

**The Weasel stays silent even as he looses his grip on the wall. As he falls out and down, he throws out his gauntlets, and the chains attached lance out and wrap around the new fellow's leg, slicing into his clothing and pulling him off the wall right with the Assasin. The other assasin sneers slightly as the bolt hits him in the back, tumbling in through the broken window. It hurts, certainly, but such a small bow was hardly able to penetrate his armor, much less kill him. He kicks open the door and leaves the empty room into the hall, searching for survivors**

*Jimble, from his high up tree lets another arrow fly, not noticing the two monitor lizards after him. However, he hears the crunching of the leaves below him. Otters! He watches them choose a spot to stake out*
"Ok me friends! Let's give these vermin something to think about!" *The otters let loose a sling of sharp stones at the vermin.*

((Nah, I'm gonna have to call you off there. I was willing to let you use one mossflower native, but no more than that. Your NPCs have to be redwallers, and no saying they were out on a trip, either  ) |

*The gauntlets miss his leg and slice through his cloak. He glances at the falling weasel, then dashes after the weasel, loading another bolt. He hoped it had at least nicked any skin at all, for he had poisoned his bolts.*

((I'm taking the number of redwaller NPC's away and adding to the otters. Otters always help the Redwallers . They're redwall friends but don't live in redwall. So we should have 120 NPCs but since there are 10 otters and Jimble, Now we have 109 and a good amount of them are gone.))

**The assasin weasel hits the ground with a loud thud, knocked unconcious and quite badly battered from the fall. The other continues into the second story hall of the main building and does a quick check for survivors. He paws the wound on his back with healing salve and reminds himself to thank the horde alchemist for making him immune to the more common poisons. Assuming he's found no one, he contiunes down to the first floor. He had pushed a heavy oak cabinet in front of the window that he came in through.**
**In the woods, duckflesh hides behind a tree as he hears screaming from the trees, one rat having been hit in the eye. Of course, now 15 Vermin within range of the otters return fire, only they aren't using rocks. They're using arrows, and quite powerful bows at that.**
**One of the two monitors spots the squirrel from the side. Keeping low so the squirrel won't see him, he gently cocks his minibow and fires a bolt directly at Jimble's neck. The other monitor creeps around to the back of the tree, keeping an eye out for otters**

*He altered course, aiming for an open window on the first floor, hoping that he could get the weasel in time. He quickly checked his bolts and cursed to himself. That was one of the strongest poison arrows that he had. It would take forever to get more of the poison. He crashed through another window and recovered using a roll. He jumped up and looked around. The weasel that he had been pursuing was right there almost waiting for him.*

**The Weasel reacts very quickly, slashing out with his chained claw with enough force for the chains to slice open his enemie's throat, and meanwhile bringing drawing a machette off his back with his other hand**

(( Thanks for acknowledging my presence AND giving me time to post... Y'know, that's the problem with some RPs like this. People get too fast and ignore other people IN THE SAME AREA WHO COULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE.   )) Muramin caught sight of the two would-be assassins and, seeing the unknown furre confront them, returned to attentions to the front gate. She was standing where she could not be shot through the gate or seen from the front battlements. However, she was quite visible with the blood-red tunica under her fairly shiney armor.
"Thank Freyjaleise I'm not the only beast out here... These Redwallers need to get some (;D)..."

((You wouldn't have noticed the Weasels until the fight up their started anyway, so it's not like you missed much))

*He ducks and sticks his arm straight up. There is a sound of metal striking metal as the chain coils around his wrist. Grabbing the chain with both paws, he yanks it with all his strength, then swiftly reaches for his sword.*
