It was nighttime in Thorntail Hallow. Little stirred in the dead of night, unusual considering the Hallow’s inhabitants. Tonight was an odd night, indeed. The wind stopped blowing, the air suddenly becoming cold and stagnant. The world becoming stuffy, and everything seemed to slow down. A sense of a dreadful presence flooded the area almost overwhelmingly, yet nothing could move. With a flash of light, a magic circle began to draw itself in the ground, a red glow making the seemingly peaceful ruins all too sinister. The circle finishes, time moves again, bats and animals go running from the circle as if it were a harbinger of their demise. Another flash, and a portal opens in the middle of the circle, seeming to suck the light out of the surrounding area.  A red-clothed witch steps through, a guitar in one hand, and what looked like a black glass globe in the other. As soon as she was through, the portal disappeared, but the circle remained. Placing the orb in the very middle, the witch began to play a haunting sound on her guitar, chanting a spell. The orb flashed red, the glass seeming to warp and crack, its color changing from black to a bright green. It flashed once more before the circle faded completely, the world returning to normal. The witch, known to most as I-no, picked up the orb, it glowed in her hands simply with her touch, responding to her power. “I’m here,” she told the orb softly. A hooded figure appeared in the clear glass; though faint, I-no knew who it was all too well. “Excellent, I-no, the first step is already complete. Now the wheel of fate shall turn once more, another spokee added to its wheel. I suppose I should warn you, your powers are much weaker now that they have crossed over, bear that in mind, You have no room for error while on your mission…or shall I have to punish you further?” The scarlet witch winced, remembering her beatings all to well. “No, sir.” Still… The hooded figure seemed to smirk through the darkness that hid his face. “Very good, my pet. Now, seek out a figure known as General Scales. He shall be the first step in my plan. You are to earn his trust, no matter the cost. Kill who you have to. Follow his orders and await my instructions. It is also very likely that others that you have banished there have yet to appear. If you are to come across them, do not kill them…yet. Do not make the same mistake twice, I-no. I can only forgive you so many times…” The figure faded, the orb stopped glowing, but remaining the same bright green. I-no sighed and raised the orb to her hat. The skull-face seemed to open its mouth, eating the orb before returning to a motionless state. |

 A group of Sharpclaw emerged from some bushes. One whispered something faint and whiny to the other, but it seemed to be the words "Like boss said, capture all stray Thorntail!" The other Sharpclaw nodded and followed him, calling more to sneak along in the shadows. |

I-no grinned at the prospect that was presented before her, well aware of the presence of the Sharpclaw soldiers. Apparently, finding the General would be much easier than she had anticipated. With a grin, I-no turned to the shadows; should she play innocent and coy? Should she let them capture her? No, she thought, what was the fun in that? No...instead, it would be much better if she played with them first. Better to give them something to tell the General about. Just a taste of he power would do it. "Good evening, boys," She teased, speaking loud enough to be sure they would hear. "I hope you have enough time to play with me on such a fine night as this." |

"!!" the Sharpclaw in charge put his club to the side, keeping all of the other sharpclaw in the shadow. The dinosaurs when not in motion, almost seemed invisible all of the sudden. Some also slunk to their bellies, and made their way out of sight, hoping to carry out the mission while a small group of them held her off. The head Sharpclaw came out of the shadows slowly, with 3 more behind him. The other 5 in his team were still hidden deep within the bush and were out of sight. |

"Let's see..." I-no studied the group that stayed to deal with her. "Four of you against only me. This is rather unfair...for you at least, you may want to call back your other troops." The "mouth" of the skull on her hat opened, a bright green music note floating out and towards the group of Sharpclaw. As it neared, the tail of the note become a fuse, quickly running down until... [dice=8] BOOM!!![rand=58788195792620465261831590042172631274333443892632505721044630764] |

[dice=6] The head sharpclaw was hit, "grrr..." but the others managed to jump out of the way. Three Sharpclaw emerged from the bush and went on all full frontal attack against her with their clubs. [dice=6] [dice=6] [dice=6] ...the other two in the back up squad, went with the other Sharpclaw still carrying out their mission, they pretty much wanted to get the job done, even if it would mean loseing a few good men. The boss Sharpclaw was slightly damaged, but he shook it off, he went out at I-no snapping with his teeth. [dice=6] The other three Sharpclaw that avoided the attack from I-no, were farther away, so all they could do to get in on the action was to throw their clubs and hope they hit. [dice=6] [dice=6] [dice=6] ...determined buggers aren't they? @thorntail@ Not too far away from the newly commenced battle, was a sleeping Thorntail, unsuspectant of the slowly apporaching Sharpclaw from behind...[rand=4816966457794572533368532535601682159772696698854507981967800062911] |

[dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] I-no was surprised by the hastiness of the Sharpclaws, and had barely blocked their attacks with her guitar, one slipping through her defenses and hitting her shoulder... [dice=6] Which left her open just enough for the bosses biting attack. Ouch. [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] However, she had seen the clubs coming and quickly stood, a mike stand appearing in her hand, the end turning into a mace quickly, but not before one of the clubs had struck. The four that stood in front of her were attacked by the mace as it whizzed around her. As for the other clubs...one was knocked away in an innocent direction, but the last mace went flying straight back at the Sharpclaws who had thrown them. [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] <--Sharpclaws and boss in melee.

[dice=6] (defense against 1) [dice=6] (defense against 2) [dice=6] (defense against 2) [dice=6] (defense against 5) [dice=6] (defense against 6) [dice=6] (defense against 4) [dice=6] (defense against 2) The boss evaded the attack, and so did 2 of the other sharpclaw near him...but the one at the tail end wasn't so fortunate. He was clubbed directly in the head and went unconsciouses on the ground now. As for the ones who threw their clubs, they found themselves in a terrible situation. They had nothing left in their hand anymore to defend with...or attack for that matter! So all they could do was crouch down and pray that they weren't hit... ...which 2 out of 3 WERE hit directly on their noggins. One fell unconscious, but the other was just slightly dazed, he shook it off and moved on. That's right folks, we found out who Master Hand loves more *wink*.---Meanwhile--- @thorntail@ The Thorntail laid there sleeping and motionless... Until the Sharpclaw came up from out of no where and covered her in a net! @thorntail@ "WRAA!" she was very displeased about being captured, and tried to warn and awaken the others....but alas, it was too late, the Sharpclaw bonked her over the head, making her fall unconscious for the time being. The Sharpclaw drug the Thorntail into a nearby bush, and one of them went out to try and tell the others it was okay to leave now. ---Back At The Scene--- The boss sharpclaw attempted to bite at I-no again, as that was a successful maneuver last time! [dice=6] While the two conscious Sharpclaw near him tried to hit I-no with their clubs again... [dice=6] [dice=6] ...and finally the one Sharpclaw from slightly farther away, picked up the club that was thrown back at him, and ran for I-no in an attempt to first slide in at her, tripping her, then hitting her while she was on the ground with his club.

[dice=6] I-no just barely managed to sidestep the bosses biting attack. It was becoming obvious that she wasn't quite as fast in This World as she normally was, this could be a problem. [dice=6][dice=6] When I-no had side-stepped the bosses attack, she had barely missed the club of another Sharpclaw, feeling it barely scrape her skin, only to step right into another club. I-no felt herself beginning to tire; this may end sooner than she wanted it to. [dice=6] Luckily, she saw a club flying at her once more, and was able to duck it with relative ease. Still in a duck, I-no struck a note on her guitar, sending out a powerful shockwave around her, hitting the three Sharpclaw who were attacking her directly.

[dice=6] (defense against 2) [dice=6] (defense against 4) [dice=6] (defense against 1) The Sharpclaw sucessfully dodged the attack that I-no retaliated with. The third Sharpclaw had gotten up after sliding, and was now with the rest of the group. He attacked in full force along with the other two Sharpclaw and the Boss. [dice=6] [dice=6] [dice=6] Sharpclaw [dice=6] Boss Meanwhile, the Sharpclaw scout that was coming back, had started to try and make a signal, saying they got a Thorntail and should head back.[rand=8973424189004301888029011743666495871559493922635138569352053292] |

I-no saw the Sharpclaw signaling just before the attack. She wanted to play more, but now was not the time. She had to see the general, and this was the only way now. [dice=6] [dice=6] [dice=6] I-no ralled to the side, barely dodging the first two clubs, pretending to be exausted, only to let herself be hit head on by the third club. She was not good at faking unconsciousness, the real deal would have to suffice. [dice=6] The bosses club missed entirely as she fell to the ground, her whole world fading to black. Her last thoughts were of her hoping that they would at least bring her guitar and not scratch it (which was very hard to do to begin with.) Because if they did... She would not hesitate to slaughter them all.[rand=540970196347012210527227470334977334018312889754034003078500466858] |

The Sharpclaw looked down at the unconcious woman and rejoiced. "NYAA!" They yelled out as the one turned to see the Sharpclaw scout sending a signal saying they caught a Thorntail. The Sharpclaw Boss head out for the other Sharpclaw, while two others gathered all of the other Trophetized Sharpclaw by tapping their stands. "SHIIIIIIINE" All of the other Sharpclaw that fell in that battle were up, holding their heads. They picked up the unconcious girl too, in hopes of taking her captive. The Sharpclaw were all set now, they had nothing left to do. They had every team mate, the girl and her guitar, and at least ONE Thorntail...but...what was that in the sky? *BOOM SPACKLE THRASH* ROOOOOAAAAAR Just then several Sharpclaw trophies, of not only scouts, but some shield bearers and some heavyweights too! They were flying out of the sky and falling downward toward the ground and slammed there. The Sharpclaw were all worried, what was that roar? Well, we know for certain it was definitley NOT something like a hunk of machinery modeled after a Red-eye....that's impossible. "Nyaa?" The Sharpclaw poked the bottom stands of the trophies and once again... "SHIIIIIIINE" The other comrades awoke and were seemingly the group from the Lightfoot mission! |

I-no become aware of everything after a moment. In the state of her unconsciousness, omnipotence gave presence in the darkest depths of her mind. She saw herself being carried away with her guitar, splendid. All was going according to plan. |

The Sharpclaw that fell from the sky were dazed and spouted something out to the Thorntail capture group. "RED-EYE!" was mentioned loudly. The Boss Sharpclaw nodded toward them and said, "General Scales nyaa, we tell him!" And soon, the Sharpclaw, all of them, were off back to General Scale's domain to inform him of the "Metallic Red-Eye", the newcommer, and how the mission went all around. |
