Stormfur surrenders

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


Cosmo walks along the road, he is looking for someone and is having a hard time finding them.

Stormfur has a bandage on his arm, and yet he still will fight. He has seen a healer and is most likely walking around sooner than he should.

Cosmo sees Stormfur and glares at him; he glares even more when he sees who is with him. He walks up closer, “Ok let her go.”

Stormfur smirks at him “Make me.”

Cosmo narrows his eyes and draws his blade.and stands ready to fight if needed; he glares "You have Aneko"

Stormfur smirks "So I do..." He draws the blade "You have death!"

Aneko frowns at all this and kicks Stormfur, she has some slashes on her face.

Stormfur lets her go as he is focused on Cosmo.

Cosmo starts to fight and stumbles, he looks at the red abbey and yells loudly.

Stormfur circles him and has a badly hurt arm, but still slices at him with his blade.

Cosmo jumps back and the blade barely miss him.

Stormfur smirks again “This is fun, wouldn’t you say.”

Cosmo frowns and looks at the very nearby abbey and goes backwards south so he is closer and almost in view of the guards on the walls, in fact he goes to the road in front of the abbey.

Stormfur chuckles as its clear his brother is losing, "Last words...last thoughts?"

Cosmo frowns, "Yes.." he takes a deep breath and yells "Help!.."

The yell has caught the attention of the guards and cool one or two have arrows and fire them

Stormfur eyes go big as an arrow lands in his arm and leg and he lets go of Cosmo and glares over at the Abbey guards.

Cosmo rolls over and goes to crawl towards the doorway.

A guard gets ready to fire another arrow and speaks, "Be wise to surrender and you won’t get fired at again" Cosmo just stays still hoping he is not hit.

Stormfur growls at the archer on the wall, he points to Cosmo as he speaks "My business not yours"

Cosmo simply looks up as the archer looks like he rather not let the stoat keep fighting, arrow still aimed at Stormfur, "Its abbey business when it’s in front of the abbey, either surrender or its fired."

Stormfur smirks, "Your one archer, I can simply sidestep and what if you hit the other beast, me..I won't mind at all."

Cosmo watches the archer and decides to take a quick slice at Stormfur while he is distracted.

Stormfur is still arguing with the wall guard when Cosmo's slice gets him in the arm, he growls and goes to grab him by the throat. “Not wise move.."He smirks "Fire now! Fool beasts~!"

Cosmo goes to move backwards and stab down at the stoats paw to make him let go, luckily he only managed to get his cloak clasp as he moves back when he saw him go towards him and almost loses his balance.

Wary of the commotion, the graying Latna comes striding out of the gates of the Abbey. He eyes the pair of fighting stoats.

Benar appears up on the top of the Abbey walls, he won't leave the safety of the Abbey but he is here to observe and seeing their Abbot atop the walls does have the effect of boosting the morale of the guards and three of them move out to support Latna and Cosmo moving toward the stoat.

Stormfur is stabbed and let’s go of the cloak, he looks at the oncoming guards and places his sword in front of him, for now he watches, he also keeps an eye on the two archer beasts on the wall.

Cosmo allows himself to fall backwards and closes his eyes tightly as he falls onto his side, he gets up slowly and keeps ahold of his sword, "Think...you’re outnumbered."

Latna, observing, can see the guards moving to the support of Cosmo as well, and the sides are drawn. "I would agree with your friend here. Are you Stormfur? I was just hearing about your exploits a minute ago." Latna stands with the other beasts, arms clasped behind his back.

Benar says, "Please, sir stoat... quit this field, surrender into my custody and you will not be harmed. Or flee but know that no place in Mossflower will be safe for you if you continue to threaten the peaceful beasts who dwell here under my protection."

Stormfur glares at the beasts, he prepares to swing at Cosmo when the three guards surround him, he growls and swings at one of them and looks at Benar, "Surrender? why?"

Marnie scurries up the ramparts with hardly a breath left, puffing as she reaches Benar. "Couldn'- find-," she pauses, then, "/Flicktail./" She peers over the edge, easily spotting Stormfur, and through her palms shouts, "Or die, o' course!"

Cosmo holds his side and keeps an eye on Stormfur, ready to attack him if needed.

Benar says, "Because fighting now will only lead to your death, we are beasts of peace, we have done naught to bring harm to yourself. I offer you this chance to surrender and be escorted from Mossflower under guard. Otherwise... I cannot permit you to continue to roam free."

Stormfur growls, as he looks around, probably just be more guards and he already has an arrow in his leg, he drops the blade he has and looks at the abbot. "Fine..I surrender."

Cosmo backs up so he is against the wall to the gates and sits down, he looks up as a guard starts to talk to him and allows the guard to help him up and inside.

Latna doesn't relax, eyes locked to the stoat. "A good choice, lad."

Benar sighs softly, "Bind him if you would.. then search him for any hidden weapons..." he folds his hands inside his sleeves and steps back, "I think we can probably lock him in one of the cellar rooms."

Stormfur growls, he does have his blade, and couple daggers, he decides to be wise and hold still while he is tied.

"I'll keep guard o' th' cellar if ye're short a watch," murmurs Marnie to Benar, hopeful.

Benar says, "Thank you Marnie, I am going to suggest we always have two beasts on guard down there at all times." he watches as the stoat is bound and sighs."

Cosmo sighs as he is checked for wounds, a cut on his lower arm, some bruises from before, he yelps as his side is touched "Whoa..ouch there.." A mouse looks at Benar, "He has a side injury..cracked rib maybe."

Marnie nods, bright eyes flitting down to the scene. "Anythin' t'help."

Benar watches Marnie leave and frowns, not quite trusting her then nods "Bring him through to the Infirmary and.... escort the stoat down to one of those cellar rooms. Empty it first then lock him in"

Stormfur is now tied up, paws behind his back and weaponless. He stays quiet for now but glares at the woodlanders.

A party of guards, the Abbot, a couple of Brothers and Latna escort Stormfur through the Abbey grounds and down into the cellar. A room has been emptied, not that small really, about 8 feet square with a high ceiling but no window and Stormfur is escorted inside.

Latna enters the room, standing near the door, arms still crossed. "Why, what a comfortable room the Abbey dwellers have been kind enough to prepare."

Stormfur glares at the mouse, "Be wise to be quiet mouse...." He doesn’t kick or anything as he is brought down here and made to sit, he looks at the Abbot, "Well..you look important."

There are blankets and that is all. He shakes his head as Stormfur is held firmly by the guards, his bonds not loosed yet, "I am Abbot Benar, I lead this Abbey and you sir will be our guest until the Long Patrol arrive to escort you out of our lands."

Stormfur smirks, "A guest?..and what if your new guest gets loose and makes you all regret having him here, then what?" His voice is cold and not at all nice.
Benar says, "This room has no exit, this door is solid oak and will not be opened, we have had to in times pass keep vermin such as yourself trapped here." he shakes his head, "And there will be four guards outside at all times, please stay and sit and think upon your actions." he steps back, the guards cut StormFur's bonds and take the ropes and then the door is shut and locked
Stormfur growls and goes to try and slam the door open, he gives up after two tries and sits back down and cusses loudly.

Cosmo listens as he had been watching from a small distance and backs up from the door, he then heads back to Ferrvale.
