Log:

The sun will rise soon as it always does and its early in the morning when he chooses to do his training. One a lot more room out here and he is better able to train and do his weapon drills.

Taz lays on top of the dune, his cloak made of the sandy color, as well as sandy purposely stuck in his fur as he is skilled, he can lay here for hours just waiting...and waiting with his bolt loaded, locked and aimed. A small smirk, he can wait longer...no problem at all.

Ciocan moves his hammer around from paw to paw in a sort of skilled dance as he goes over his training drills for the morning. He is usually out here for a couple hours before going back inside.

Rudolfo is out side a little early, and another hare with him and they seem to complain as Rudolfo chuckles "Fine then go inside..I can catch up."He scans the area with a yawn and blinks as he looks to the dune and walks closer squinting a little "That's...odd"He shrugs but something tells him to check on his gut feeling.

Taz stays still, he moves slightly just for a better aim but thanks to his cloak he is blending in fairly good with the sands. He may have one arm...well one half arm? He still has full use of his right arm and he only needs one arm to fire a cross bolt. Just wait for a good moment as he grins.

Rudolfo frowns and carefully goes to get behind the marten, if he can without being seen and attempt to tackle the marten, may or may not be a very wise idea .

Taz doesn't see the hare, I mean he is sort of behind him as he grins, aims better and....but before he fires he gasps, the tackle seemed to work somewhat,but the bolt goes off...lucky not aimed as well but still it's fired as the marten already knows he is gonna miss,and a deep growl forms as he kicks backwards and spins around aiming to grab the hare by the throat.

Ciocan was in mid move when the bolt, very likely aimed for something much more vital grazes across his arm causing him to drop the war hammer and snorts in surprise, a line of deep red forms on his upper arm and the bolt landed in the sand a few feet from him. He quickly gets the hammer back and scans for the direction the bolt came for.

Rudolfo fails to jump back and instead is going to try and pry the paw from around his throat, he sort of gags a little and kicks out at the marten

Gregorian appears from the mountain because someone has to get up early enough to make sure the recruits actually turn up on time in the morning. He gets there earlier than he has to though as a little bit of peace before the day starts is pleasant. He's already spotted his lordship and doesn't interrupt the training and is just enjoying the breeze until something suddenly cuts through it. He doesn't see the bolt but he sees the badger on alert and then a fight starting on the dunes "Sound the alert" He yells back at the mountain entrance, assuming the sentry is probably within earshot still. He's limping more heavily than usual but he's got his cane out and he hurries towards the fighting as fast as he can, drawing one of his hammers as he goes.

Taz grins as he stands up, he chuckles at the kick and then smiles coldly"You made me miss....bad mistake..you die now..last words bunny?"

Dominik had been outside as well on his usual morning run...well, it had been EARLY morning at least when he had first gone outside, anyway...he was out even earlier than Greg had been. This meant that his weapon had been left behind and his choice of attire lacked sufficient protection from weapons and such. The large hare was a short distance away, ready to head back to the mountain, where he hears the sound of a scuffle nearby. Turning towards the area where he'd heard the fight starting, Dom hurries over in that direction. Upon seeing Taz with his paw around Rudolfo's throat, the hare makes a beeline in that direction. If Taz happens to look up, he will see the fearsome sight of a rather large buck charging directly toward him, his expression one that seems to show that he is certainly not playing around.

Ciocan sees the marten now and his eyes narrow. He arm is bleeding some but not too badly as the bolt grazed the arm when it flew past, barely missing hitting his arm. He grips his war hammer and places it in his other paw and starts to head towards the marten, if the marten survives the hares, he'll have a very peeved off badger to deal with.

Rudolfo stays awake but he is clearly having some issues breathing right now, he goes to use the paw he has free, the one not trying to pry the marten paw off, to get hold of his saber and stab Taz..somewhere he doesn't care where he just wants him to let go and he fights staying awake at the same time.

Gregorian growls as he gets closer and can finally properly see the situation and that it's Taz again. He knows he's not going to get there that fast though he can see Ciocan and Dominik but he doesn't know how close Taz is to killing Rudolfo. So with a stop in his limping run so he can steady his aim Greg throws his hammer directly at Taz. He's practiced throwing them a lot over the years, his aim is good but it is a long throw.

Taz smirks and goes to tighten his grip...then a lot of things happen. He is stabbed in the leg and his grip loosens enough to drop the hare as he hisses, he steps forwards to kick at Rudolfo when he sees Dominik and Greg both, he doesn't look the direction of the badger but he knows he is there, he grins as he draws out one blade and then the hammer causes said blade to sail out of his paw as the hammer hits it, he glares at the hares and looks ready to fight them, oh and he has another blade he goes to grab it now too.

Dominik lowers his head and attempts to use it as a battering ram as his speed hasn't slowed down upon his approach to Taz. He basically just tries to bowl him over with more of a football tackle-style move, wanting to get him as far away from Rudolfo as possible. The fact that a weapon is draw does not seem to faze him...either that, or he just doesn't really see it as his attention is focused on knocking Taz to the ground.

Ciocan grips his own war hammer, only this one is much larger as he comes towards Taz from behind, he stops long enough to avoid the throw hammer and blade that falls to the sand and grips his hammer tighter as he looks at Taz...eyes narrowed, if Taz happens to see him....the expresses ion is far from a good one, the marten may well be in trouble now.

Rudolfo feels himself fall and hits the sand rolling a couple feet and laying very still, then the rising and falling of his chest proves he is alive but he is gonna have some bruising around his neck as he is temporary unconscious right now, lucky he is alive.

Gregorian has one hammer left plus the blade hidden in his cane but he's more reliant on that to walk right now. He draws his second hammer anyway but between Dom's tackling the marten and Ciocan's looming Greg figures they've got it handled and goes to Rudolfo instead, checking first that he's alive and then going to try and drag him back away to get him clear of the fighting.

Taz is hit..head on?..He tumbles down the small little sandy hill or sloop and groans, a couple, maybe 3 ribs are cracked as he starts to get up and looks up and pales some when he sees the badger and scoots back quickly so he can stand up better and get into a fighting stance..."If it isn't..the stripedog..ohh"He sees the blood on his arm and smirks "I drew blood...too bad it didn't hit where I aimed."Yeah pay attention to the badger for now and not the large hare behind you

Dominik seems to pursue Taz relentlessly even after his blow had knocked the marten down the hill a little ways...he strides through the sand with a growl, aiming himself directly for him again even as Taz tries to steady himself and get into a fighting position. "Should have...finished you...at tavern," He growls, before aiming a quick, hard combination of two rights and a left uppercut at the distracted marten. All others in the area are ignored, as the only thing he can currently see is the vermin in his path, who had murdered innocent Patrollers in cold blood. His fury is a rather terrifying sight...if the first blows struck, he follows them up with a hard kick or two.

Ciocan snarls at Taz, he goes to swing the war hammer at the marten.

Rudolfo is alive and able to be dragged away from the fighting. His eyes flutter open and he coughs a few times and a weak groan is heard, another cough as his flutter a little again and finally stay open to focus on Gregorian.

Gregorian keeps an eye on the fighting but Rudolfo draws his attention as he starts coughing and waking up "Lie still lad and don't try talkin'" He says before quickly grabbing his thrown hammer from where it landed and Taz's lost blade which he tucks out the way in his belt. He hangs back a bit to keep between the marten and Rudolfo though it's mostly because he doesn't wish to get in the way of Dom or a badger who both seem set on making marten paste.

Taz moves slightly, enough to just barely avoid seriously injury from the hammer only to bump into Dominik, he spins around to attempt to slice at the hare only to see his weapon, the only other one he had, drooped, and one punch connects...he blocks a 2nd one, and then a third connects and he stumbles sideways and goes to try and trip the hare if he can.

Dominik is so focused on completely ending Taz's existence that he doesn't pay as much attention as he probably should, and as he rears back for another kick to the marten, he is tripped up just slightly. Figuring his punches would have knocked him out, he stumbles a little and tries his best to quickly regain his balance, at the same time still lashing out at Taz as he begins to fall. And it's a looong way down.

Rudolfo nods as his throat and neck hurts too much to talk anyways. He hears the fighting but doesn't move much, he stays laid down for now.

Gregorian nods to Rud, he seems alright all things considered "Yah did well" And Greg is fairly certain the fight isn't coming back Rudolfo's way. After a minute he offers a paw to Rud to get him off the ground "Yah think yah can stand and walk? Fight?" He's still watching the fighting and hanging back while Dom seems to have it under control but he's ready for everything to go sideways at any second.

Taz chuckles this insane laugh as he backs up and goes to pick up the blade he had earlier, "Killing you will be fun...balance the odds ever in the Blackrose favor...."He starts to head towards Dominik's blade out and ready to strike when he gets close enough.

Ciocan snarls and goes to swing the hammer at the marten while his back is turned! The swing is using a lot of power and very likely to cause some serious injuries if it hits the marten.

Dominik manages to get his bearings just as Taz approaches him, and he doesn't manage to get his paws up in time to defect the strike. He is stabbed in the side, and he grunts in pain, though he quickly reaches out to try and grab a hold of Taz as he is dangerously close to him. Being stabbed only seems to amp up his anger even more, and as he sees that Ciocan is swinging his hammer at the marten, he does his best to push him directly into the path of the hammer.

Rudolfo nods as he allows the help and stands slowly "I...I think..so..."He rubs his neck and frowns coughing a couple times and looks towards the fighting.

Gregorian grimaces as Dom's stabbed and he quickly goes to grab Rud's shoulder to push him towards the mountain "New plan. Go get a healah, now" by the time this is over they're going to need one. He heads for the fighting then, flipping his hammer around so the spiked end comes first. With luck Ciocan's hammer will take care of the job before he gets there.

Taz grins as he draws blood, he seems to enjoy seeing others bleed. The paw grabs the blade arm as he feels himself pushed away and smiles "Afraid of me hare....."Then pain beyond pain is felt as the hammer hits him in the shoulder and shoulder blade and he falls onto his back to look up at the badger and likely also the tall hare if he gets up. There is for sure broken bones here in his shoulder and the collar bone making it almost impossible to move his arm very well at all!

Ciocan eyes narrow at the marten, the hammer still in his paw he aims to bring it down on the martens arm again and to kick away the blade as well before backing up a little to get into a better fighting stance, if it's even needed.

Dominik's adrenaline is pumping heavily now, and despite the fact that he is bleeding rather heavily he still focuses on the marten who is now lying injured right below him. Pushing himself back up to his foot paws, Dom glares daggers down at Taz. "Would never...be afraid...of coward...like you," He grunts, his voice filled with the total disgust and hatred he is feeling at the moment. "Tell your friends...Dom sends regards...ven get to...Dark Forest..." With those words, Dominik lifts up a heavy foot paw, and tries his best to bring it down on Taz's head with as much force as he is able. And as large as he is, it is definitely quite a bit of force!

Rudolfo nods as he heads to the mountain to find a healer, he can still move quickly and when it's needed he can move a good pace. He will find a healer that will come out to help whom ever is wounded in the fight, though they will wait till it's safe to go help the wounded, only a fool would go helping in the middle of...well this. It seems the healer had told Rudolfo to stay inside and sit down awhile.

Gregorian relaxes a little as the marten falls from the badger's hit. He doesn't put away his hammer and he has a quick look around to make sure no other vermin are in sight but he leaves what he assumes will be the last of it to the other two. As soon as the healer arrives he hangs back with them, waiting to pounce upon Dom the moment it's safe to stop that bleeding.

Taz goes to scoot away and aim a kick at the hare in front of him, the foot misses his head but gets to his neck and a sort of gasp for air is heard and a look of pain, his eyes start to lose focus and it's clear the marten is gonna see the dark forest soon. He dosn't attempt to move, he can't move in fact.

Ciocan snorts and stays where he is. It would seem the marten is gonna die now as he straightens up and takes a couple deep breaths before looking to the line of red on his upper arm where the bolt slide across his arm, it's not deep but it will need tended to. Another snort as he makes sure no other vermin around, seems none are right now.

Dominik does not seem entirely satisfied as his stomp lands on Taz's throat...it doesn't seem to be fast enough for him, and the hare stomps down again, this time hopefully for the final time. All the while he continues to bleed all over the place, his tunic completely drenched on one side though the large hare seems to be completely ignoring it as he focuses his attention on the marten. Or what's left of him, at least.

Taz would attempt to move but it seems the large hare finishes off the job of ending his life, his eyes glaze over finally in death...the marten is dead, very very dead.

The healer does spot the badger's cut, they'll definitely be checking that out as soon as possible. Greg give Dom time but he's not waiting any longer and can't really tell if that's finally killed the marten before he steps up, going to place a paw on the big hare's arm "Yah done it Dom, now back up ovah here tah this healah cause yah messin' up the sand bleedin' all ovah the place" He says as he beckons the healer over to get to work.

Ciocan kicks sand over the marten and takes a deep breath and will help get Dominik inside if needed. He speaks quietly"The sea gulls can have the marten...."

Dominik aims another few stomps to Taz's lifeless form just for good measure, the hare growling in fury, and he has to be physically pulled away from the marten's corpse before he does any more pointless damage. Even so, he tries tugging himself away from being restrained just to get an extra kick or two in. He breathes heavily, panting as he finally turns away from the scene, and he glances down incredulously at Greg. "Is not bleeding. Is marten blood," He tries to point out, likely unsuccessfully as they likely saw him being stabbed. He turns his eyes to the healer, and tries to gently push him away, wanting to head back to the mountain under his own power. "No."

Gregorian helps where he can with getting Dom inside in one piece and to the infirmary though he's not stopping the big hare from walking and it's mostly just by following and if needed providing the odd nudge in the right direction with his cane because for some reason the healer is just a little bit afraid to argue with the giant hare after seeing that. Greg though is not about to let him wander off anywhere other than the infirmary and is more than willing to poke painful wounds if there's arguments otherwise. Greg does also notice Ciocan's cut again as they get moving "Get someone tah check that's not poisoned when we get in" he mentions to the healer, just in case.

Ciocan steps over "Private Dominik...to the infirm" Yes an order from the badger as he too will go the infirm, even though he dislikes the infirm. And yes if it becomes needed he WILL carry Dominik to the infirm.
