*Sure enough, there's a door up ahead. Terragon pulls it opens and practically falls across the threshhold into the dark hall beyond. Outside, the vermin's heavy pawsteps and shouts can be heard still.*

*At last, Strongpaw built a fire, He was returning from a journey to Salamandastron* I jolly well got it. wot wot *He is about to get a scone from his provision sack when suddenly he hears some shouts and goes to investigate* Well, the jolly ole fire will have to wait. wot wot *The hare gets ready his saber for close combat and moves on* i am jolly well closer. *Suddenly he sees the rats. Strongpaw takes in the situation in one glance* Some jolly ole poor beast is trapped inside that room! I must tell them i am here, and can help them.... but how?

*Taggle does not see Terragon duck into the room, and he continues to run, taking twisting and turning passages, until finally he is forced to stop. Gasping for breath, he looks around him. All signs of the rats have vanished...along with Terragon. The mousebabe then realised....he was lost!*

*Terragon waits in the darkness, not completely convinced that the rats have gone. But after a while, just as she is about to go and look for Taggle, she hears somebeast outside... Why in Mossflower did you abandon Taggle? You shouldn't of assumed he was following! Ashnel's advice - ignored again!*

OOC: Remember punctuation and capital letters, Strongpaw.
*Terragon yelps as an arrow buries itself in the wood where her paw had been moment before. At first she thinks that the vermin are attacking from below, then, the leaderess realises a message is tied to the arrow. Cautiously, Terragon unties the parchment and reads. By the end, she is nearly laughing as she realises that help has come. The leaderess hurries to the window and glances out, and, spotting Strongpaw below, waves frantically to him.* Strongpaw! Over here!

OOC: Better, but keep trying. You're nearly there. Punctuation still.
BIC: *Terragon frowns, and mouths "What-?!" There's no way for her to check if the rats are outside, and she can't think of how to silently tell the hare that Taggle is missing. If the leaderess had a pen, she'd write a note back to Strongpaw. But, at present, all of her ideas are flawed like this. Terragon is trapped.*

*Strongpaw thinks up a plan, he will throw an arrow, tied to a rope, through the window to Terragon! Then she can get out!* Thats a jolly good plan!wot wot *He throws an arrow near the window, to show Terragon his plan, then he points at a rope, and looks at Terragon to see if she understands.*

*Terragon looks uneasy at this. But, she reminds herself. You hardly have any choice, given the circumstances. So the leaderess grabs hold of the rope with all four paws, and, glad she's not wearing a skirt, hangs upside-down and climbs paw over paw down the rope. The cord rubs Terragon pauses, causing rope and friction burns which sting and make her want to let go. Her back is aching from climbing upside-down and the blood is beginning to rush to her head, making Terragon feel dizzy and ill... Plus, she's no idea how far she has to climb, as the squirrel can't turn to see. Worse, Terragon hasn't a clue where Taggle is.*

* Taggle looks around him, and begins to walk down the hallway he is in. He dare not shout for Terragon, because it would draw the attention of the rats. As the mousebabe is walking down the passageway, an end coms into view. He runs to it, and finds it is an old courtyard, with a wishing well, and a small bench. The mousebabe sits down on the benach, to scared to think of what to do. Slowly, the sound of the water in the well lulls him to sleep, slumped down onto the bench.*

*Strongaw looks at the squirrel climbing down from the rope, he is not sure she will make to the ground so he positions himself in a way he can catch her if she falls* Be careful up there, Terragon.

Where are the rats? *She hisses at Strongpaw, aware of the sounds of their voices loudening, as though drawing nearer. And where in all of Mossflower and the Dark Forest is Taggle? He's only a dibbun - he could be lost, or injured or worse - and I was supposed to be looking after him.*

* Taggle was curled peacefully on the bench, unaware of all about him. Suddenly, the mousebabe wakes up, and screams. It echoes about the courtyard, and much, much farther.* ((dun dun dun........lol. wait till ye see wot hes screamin about))

*Terragon drops from the life-line-like rope in horror as she hears the scream. The ground is, luckily, closer than the leaderess realises, and - despite the dull pain in her shoulder where she landed awkwardly, and her aching paws - the squirrel is fine. This doesn't bother her though as it appears that the rats have found Taggle. Terragon struggles up and races past Strongpaw in the vague direction of the shout.* Strongpaw, come on.
