This Can't Be Good-Missing Abbot Log

==This happen shortly after Zinnia’s Funeral==

Rayen slipped into the hideout and looked to the guard ferret as she carried some hot tea, hot tea laced with sleeping herbs” Hey…my turn.” She says and goes as if the tea is her’s.

The rat grabs the tea and drinks it, he smirks and sits the glass down “Ye price fer getting on me….nerves…” And he is asleep.

Bolt is a little ways down the hall sharping his dagger, he looks to where Rayen heads and gets curious so he follows her down the hallway.

Rayen slips the keys to the cell off the guard’s belt and goes to unlock the door to the cell where Benar, An Abbey Novice mouse, Minsc and Gorvenalus is.

Bolt slips behind her and goes to twist her arm behind her “Drop it..what ya doing…boss!!!!”

Quade walks down the hall and frowns, “What is all this?” He looks at the rat and then to Rayen, and the keys “Get those from her and escort her outside please.” He turns and heads out without a word.

Rayen tries to stump on his foot paw as her arm is twisted behind her and growls  showing her teeth, “Let me go or…or so HELP ME”

Minsc stirs and opens an eye to look out and sits up. He normally doesn’t get involved with the beasts here, he stays quiet and sort of a hopeless look since he is a captive.

Bolt goes to led the vixen to where Quade is.

Quade is out in an open area of woods by a stream, with him is 4 ferrets and 2 weasels “So…you were trying to open the cell, why? It’s not meal time…Bolt say you have the key please”

Bolt nods and tosses it to him. He also decides to take Rayen’s longbow and sits it by a tree.

Rayen glares at the squirrel “ I was releasing your captives  and I plan to tell the abbey to not trust you, I am sure the captives would back me up”

Quade sighs as if disappointed “Really? You are being such a pain to me, I mean how am I to focus on things if I have to worry about you. First you refuse to help me but that was forgiven after you said fine, then you didn’t kill the badger…Bolt did”

Bolt grins “And it was fun, and your face..Oh Sister Zinnia…..so heartbreaking.” He adds “I so wanted to kill another one but the boss didn’t let me”

Rayen ears flatten against her head, “You are a murderer Quade and you know what I will take pleasure in telling her mate,  heck Oz and Xander will most likely like to literally RIP  your head off. A family of badgers ticked off is not a good thing”

Stoneskin comes in, claws clicking and tail curled as he grunts a greeting. He is a monitor and right now he has on a thick coat made of the fur of some sort of beasts.

Quade only nods “Yes but I have plans to just say it was some other beast….sides I rather enjoyed seeing their reaction when that one badger carried Sister Zinnia back into the abbey…young Xander wanted to charge out and slay the murderous vermin and I think he would of left had he not been knocked out..funny really. Could be interesting to see if one of them would ever go..bloodwrath, hmms not sure on Oz seeing as he is blind.”

Rayen  answers “Yeah just cause he is blind doesn’t mean he won’t fight if needed”

Bolt listens and sneers “Blind badger sounds like fun target practice.”

Quade shrugs “And he leaves the abbey even less than Benar did and rarely goes too far…course he may want as..escort to get some mint for the abbey as he is always drinking mint tea, yes I pay attention to details as it’s important to know those you fight, that you trick , so you can better be able to know strengths and weaknesses.” He looks at the vixen “But I am rambling again when I need to figure out what to do with you”

Rayen glares “You going to kill me Quade, seems a pass time of yours to kill or enslave beasts and make others think you’re a friend when you’re not”

Stoneskin just looks between them and grunts, seems he doesn’t talk much…if at all.

Bolt leans on a tree “I killed the female badger.”

Quade shakes his head “I won’t and I keep my promises as I try to always tell the truth with my words…but it doesn’t mean you stay alive as 3nd time the charm…usually that’s good, in this case its bad…see the 3nd time you upset me was when you knocked out a guard and proceeded to steal the key and unlock the cell..that was serious and made me know without a shadow of a dought  I can’t keep you around. Your…a danger to me and my plans.” He goes to slip out a dagger and suddenly slices at her chest and arm!

Rayen gasps in pain as a cut opens on her arm and chest and blood drips down “Y..You said…”

Stoneskin watches with interest as his sharp teeth show.

Quade speaks “I said I wouldn’t kill you, this is not killing, it’s just wounds a healer like Brother Leon can fix up…..but how well…good of a healer is he?” He goes to slice at her arm again and  stab at her footpaw, he seems to grow tired of the dagger and flicks it into a tree “Daggers were never  something I liked, now Furyblazor is…a great sword that is a symbol of hope, that’s true…but the fact it’s mine isn’t…but I feel as if it’s mine now”

Bolt simply watches also, but he, as well as the others stay where he is.

Rayen yells in pain as blood forms on her arm and she goes to kick Quade hard in the leg to cause him to fall.

Quade snaps his fingers and drops, the ferrets and weasels go in to attack the vixen with daggers, one has a sword and one a spear aimed for her footpaw.

Stoneskin snarls and goes to grab to swipe a claw at the vixen, if he can.

Bolt stands ready and aims his longbow compete with arrow, aimed to kill.

Rayen gasps as she gets cuts on her arm, leg and a stab wound in the chest luckily it’s not fatal and not deep or anywhere vital. She manages to tumble backwards just as the spear enters her footpaw and she screams in pain.

Quade stands there, a slight limp down as his leg hurts, but it should be fine in a few hours, he waits and then “Back off….all but Stoneskin, hurt but not kill my pet”

Stoneskin goes to grab Rayen by the throat and squeeze, and takes one clawed paw and swipes in across her face.

Rayen starts kicking and struggling, then she finds it hard to breath and gasps for air, she tenses as a couple claw marks go across her face and leave two marks, one barely missing her left eye.

Bolt keeps his arrow aimed, you know just in case he gets to kill Rayen

Quade calmly watches and then speaks “That’s enough my pet…drop her”

Stoneskin snorts and slams the fox onto the forest floor and steps back fangs showing.

Rayen hits the forest floor and tenses up in pain, she coughs up some blood and shivers. Her eyes half open she looks at the monitor and backs into a tree weakly. Half a dozen wounds all over her and her neck and throat is swollen so she is not breathing very well.

Bolt says “May I finish her off boss…please”

Quade holds up a paw to wait, “No…she is injured fairly badly as it is, we will leave her here. She won’t go anywhere and a couple wounds are fairly bad….but no one knows where you are and I surely will tell them I heard you were going another direction and that I am not sure where you are….I mean you could be in the dark forest and most likely will be soon but think of it this way…your see Sister Zinnia again soon, won’t that be nice?”

Stoneskin decides to go hunt some lunch in the woods.

Rayen lays on the forest floor, her eyes half  open as she somehow manages to stay awake, she manages also a glare and weak growl, but the growl causes her to cough up blood.

Bolt grins and looks at Quade “You know we should make double sure she don’t try nothing” He goes to grab her longbow and if able break it in like 4 pieces and toss them aside, he then fires his own arrow towards  her lower back and cackles.

Quade rolls his eyes and frowns, he had not given an order to him, he waits to see the results.

Rayen whimpers as her longbow, that she has had most of her life is broken and tries to get up only to have the arrow bury its self into her back, she shivers and tries to move finding her legs not wanting to response well.

Bolt grins wide” Well she won’t be moving hardly now, huh boss?”

Quade nods “That’s enough Bolt, let us get back to the hideout…by the time she is found it will be too late, that or Stoneskin will come back and sadly without me to stop him, well she may never be found” He then just turns and walks away and Bolt had better follow as she other vermin are following him already

Bolt goes to quickly follow his boss, least he get in trouble with his boss

Rayen lays on the ground, blood pools around her as she fights to stay awake, she shivers and she is not sure if it’s from the cold or blood loss or maybe a little of both. She says a silent prayer help of some form will come soon.

==3-4 hours pass==

Rayen is unsure how long she has layed there but she feels all numb now and she knows it’s a bad sign, and she worries what will happen she its night fall

Takeo decided to take a walk, Milo and Ottis his two otter friends followed out of worry for their long time friend.  He badger was both heartbroken and at the same time wanting revenge, but he  slows when he sees the fox and draws his sword, if it’s a foe….he walks over and drops the sword in shock “By the ancients…”He right away kneels down to check her wounds as he recognizes her as a friend to the abbey.

Rayen looks at him, a sort of faraway look and tries to speak only to cough and gasp for air, she tries again and its barely a weak whisper of slurred words.

Takeo frowns “Don’t speak lass…just…ok where to start” He is unsure, the arrow maybe keep there for now, he has some supplies as he cleans a couple bad wounds and manages to sew a couple shut before applying healing herbs he has from his homeland and bandages them. He  frowns “I don’t..have much” The two otters Milo and Ottis watch before speaking “The abbey sir, there maybe?”

Rayen shivers and looks ready to pass out, she has lost a good deal of blood and is in pain, she cold and tried.

Takeo looks at the vixen as he speaks  and makes a campfire. “Get me some things from that Ferravale…I  fear moving her. She could die.”

Rayen  coughs and her eyes droop a little, she tries to speak and fails, she tries to move her paw but nothing is done good in the mud. She is slowly getting worse as time passes.

Takeo feels her forehead and frowns, he looks to Milo and Ottis ”We need help soon…or she is going to die”

What will happen to Rayen? Will Takeo get to the abbey, to Ferravale? Will Quade’s beast do something worse? Only time will tell…..and more logs!
