I will. **Oakfang says with stoic solemnity.** Molly, you stay behind, your good at that kind of thing. **Molly nods and makes sure all her gear is ready. Oakfang glances at Ashnel, Dannblood and Leatha.** I'll be right back, wait for me. **she begins to walk back the way she came, fairly slowly**

*Dann looks back, and then makes a decision.* If anyone else wants to come, come along, but we need at least two of you to stay behind. *Dannblood then runs up to Oakfang. He laughs a little, then says,* Did you ever have blood on your paws? If not, this is going to be the first day you ever actually saw blood! I'm going to spill all of their guts!

**Oakfang smirks** well, I don't know about you, but I've fought in a couple of wars, quite a few battles. witnessed a mass slaughter of a vermin camp, the one where I grew up. So. No I'm completely new to death! **she chuckles at the end of speaking. As you reach the river she pulls a foldable spade out of her pack. She wades slightly into the river, so it goes up to the middle of her shins.** Hey Dann, give us a hand! **she starts digging into the riverbank, half in half out of the water**

*Dannblood, a little mad at Oakfang mumbles to himself as he wades in.* I saw my whole family get slaughtered when I was not but a dibbun, then I tracked them down and killed every single one!..... What do ya want me to do?

((OOC: why would you be mad at her? **is confused**))
**Oakfang hears the tone of his voice** Sorry matey, didn't mean to anger you. I often say out of place things, I'm way too blunt.**she smiles apologetically** Would you please give me a hand digging this out? its a chest, with some interesting and useful gear and stuff in it.

*As Dannblood and Oakfang walked off to the river, Leatha waited a moment and then followed them. Leaving her gear on the bank, she waded out to help Oakfang in whatever way possible.*
Hey Oaky, and umm I don't know who you are mister. You guys can't expect me to stay and wait for you to come back, Its the Irish blood in me I can't stay away from a fight. So...how am I supposed to help you dig something out if no-one except you has a shovel anyways?

Thats Dannblood. **she raises her eyebrows** I thought everybody carried foldable spades? anyway, I came prepared, theres three in that tree there. **she pauses digging and points to a nearby tree, which has a bundle tied to a fairly high branch.** I put em' there ages ago, just in case this thing was ever needed.

*Ashnel, who for some moments has been in thought, staring at the trees from which the ermine appeared from, finally speaks. His voice no louder than normal, though it is unlikely the other three have heard a word from squirrel before, but it is heavy with a rusty air of authority.* Wait. None of us can go charging off into Mossflower without a moment's thought. Oakfang and... Dannblood? *He pauses a moment, trying to recall the name Oakfang had identified the young squirrel with.* You say you've fought before and must know that hastiness is no advantage. *By Jupiter, I learned that the hard way too many times, he remembers and relents a little.* Tell me what you plan to do.

**As she digs and huffs, Oakfang looks up at Ashnel** Well, you aint seeing me rushing off nowhere before this box open. my plan is, get all the stuff out this box, distribute it around us all, and I actually have a rough idea of whatthe armies movements will be. I have insider knowlegdge ya see. They probably want me and Pablo back, so they'll go to pretend to attack terralux first, trying to flush me out. while the elites will be wting in strategic places to get our group busy and/or down. the attack on terralux will be real, but no real harm will be done, because they want to save their energy to go onto bigger more raidable places like Redwall. So basically, we can't head back, or we're stuffed, they'll have us after that. we need to head a particular way round, which I'll show you after I've finished all this flipping digging. **she starts to breath heavier towards the middle of speaking, stopping for the occasional breath. at the end of speaking, her spade hits something hard with a clunk. and she grins**

*Dann who had gone and got a sovel stopped when he heard the clunk and ran immediately back.* If you need anyone to go scouting, ask me. I could even pick a few off, and I've been waiting to use a few of me traps. *Dann looks at Oakfang,waiting for an answer.* Which route are ya taking? I can always meet up with you. *Dann then takes his bow off and strings it, getting ready to run off into the woods after the scum.*

*Leatha was just starting to dig with the spade, courtesy of Oakfang, when they heard a clunk. Hauling it onto the bank, she watched as Dannblood prepared to swing off. As Oakfang spread out her map, Leatha unslung her long sword and tightened her quivers strap so it would fit closely to her back. Her bow already strung, she nodded to Dannblood.*
Your not the only one who is fast and skilled with the bow. I can help you pick 'em off. Which way do you want us ta go Oaky?

**she draws a breath to answer, but then the lid lets out a loud CRACK! flying wide open, flinging oakfang onto her bottom** Ouch! Thats what I've got in there, master crafted by salamndastron badger lords of many generations. **she bends over the chest, and inside you can see beautiful weapons and a few pieces of armour.** we each get a weapon and a piece of armour, they have been strengthened with generations of fox magic.

*Dann laughs at Leatha's remark, then quickly jumped back as the chest flew open, an arrow on his bow. Dann then draws in a deep breath as he looks at all of the armor. He then reaches in to the chest and pulls out a small throwing knife. testing it for weight, Dannblood flicked it into the air, then caught it deftly. Dannblood the nods a little and smiles. As fast as an arrow, Dann then throw it at a tree.* Leatha? *Dann says her name because he can vaguely remembers someone saying her name.* Do you know anything about setting traps?
