Puffing and panting, a hedgehog reached the edge of Castlewood Forest and stared out at the Delsin plain that stretched out as far as the eye could see before dropping into the distant horizon. Ryder could see the tall grass being rustled by the bad of vermin thieves he was being hired to catch. The bounty hunter was exhausted from chasing them through the forest for two days and nights without rest. He was about to give up when he thought about how large his reward would be. "I'll do anything for the love of money," he muttered as he ran into the tall grass.
In the tall grass, Norma watched Ryder approach from her position on a tall rock. The vixen raced back to the rest of the thieves with the news. Just like Ryder, Norma was also tired enough to fall asleep on her feet when she staggered over to her companions. "That bounty hunter just won't give up!" She sat down by the large bags of gold that the thieves had recently stolen. We could probably escape him if we lost these heavy bags of treasure, she thought. But we went to so much trouble to get them! I'll do anything for the love of money.

Watching the groups from the trees, Lehnrak whistled to himself. "They went through all that trouble for gold. Well, this couuld get interesting." Lehnrak jumped down into the grass, thene.raced ahead of the hedgehog and the vixen & her group to a hole.

NuuicClickJaw watched the hedgehog running in the grass chasing after the vermin,"Cruic kna shigagatama sismakjra milosidsfdfasd?" Translated to,"Why is strange spikey chasing robbing vermints?" He looked at the theives and pondred one more thing," Gilik ma chang bao?" Translated,"Why they run from him?"
Arochk looked at the theives and snarled,"They dare trespass in my domain? I shall bathe myself in their blood." He looked up as he heard a noise," Another intruder, a hedgehog, a cheetah, and a hmmm, its oder is...odd." He looked over to see Lehnrak and growled,"They will all die." he moved slightly his black fur not blending with the grass."I wait now, and spring when I have the chance." He sat quietly silently watching his targets.
((Just so you know, NuuicClickJaw is a Cheetah, and Arochk in a black furred lion.

It wasn't long before the bounty hunter lost his quarry in the plain. Ryder looked around and spotted NuuicClickJaw in the tall grass. "Excuse me sir, have you seen a band of vermin thieves around here?" he asked in a regal tone you would never expect to hear from some who captures and/or kills other beasts for a living.
Norma heard a twig snap and saw a blur race past her. Cautiously, she pulled out a javelin and moved away from the camp. "Who's there?" she asked as she approached the hole Lehnrak was hiding in.

Watching from the hole, Lehnrak slowly pulled out his double-bladed spear. Looking at it's blades, he decided that he didn't need to put any more poison on for at least another week. He then looked back outside to the approaching fox.

"Kroack na jickta ma liao jinas majarokqui maro?" Translated to,"What, I can't understand, what say you?" He looked at the hedgehog not understanding what he said. He shook his head and drew a picture of a fox and other vermain in the dirt and pointed in the directon he saw them go,"Agrain na klachaw ma klawda qcisquiacms?" Translated,"are you looking fer the nasty vermain?"
Arochk watched the fxe's movements away from the camp,"Fool he lunged drawing the scimatar in one swift motion he stood before the fox, bigger than it by maybe five heads. He stared down at her,"You tresspassed in my domain, the penalty is death." He reached and pulled out his whip with the blade on the end and stared down at her,"But if you leave now, I will spare you and your company. Even the creature in the hole and the hedgehog." He cracked the whip breaking a rock into pieces to prove his strenght."Leave...NOW!!"

Watching this new beast, Lehnrak didn't move.

"Yes, I am," Ryder replied in the language that NuuicClickJaw. "Thanks for your help." The bounty hunter vasished into the grass.
"Your domain?" Norma asked as she put her paws on her hips and stared back at him. "Well, excuse me, but I don't see your name on it," she replied sassily. "We're Reathantis, the famous vermin thieves, and we answer to no one! Right, guys?" She looked back at the camp just in time to see Ryder burst out of the grass.

NuuicClickJaw looked as the hedgehog ran and laughed,"Glig ka mano chaca knisdas mifrago!" Translated to,"Strange beastie, me no understand!" He turned and ran after him.
"Fine, I shall write my name in my territory. Using your BLOOD!!" He lashed out at her with his scimatar, at the same time lashing the whip out at her companions.

Deciding to see things from another point of view, Lehnrak leapt out of the hole and ran over to the grass, still keeping a paw on his spear.

Taking the thieves by surprise, Ryder managed to defeat most of them easily. He counted the surprisingly few bags of gold lying around and saw that he could carry them and the tied up thieves back to the castle for his reward easily. “All this fuss over a few small bags of gold,” he murmured as he aimed an arrow at Norma.
Norma dodged both Arochk's scimitar and an arrow shot by Ryder at the same time. She felt the scimitar make a shallow gash in her side and the arrow graze her arm. The vixen ducked around Ryder like a hare and snatched the gold from his paws before taking off.

Aiming at the vixen's feet, Lehnrak threw his spear.

Ryder murmured a few curses under his breath before running after Norma. After a while, he noticed Arochk. "Pardon me, sir," he said to the black lion. "If you'll give me a second to catch that vixen, I'll take these thieves and myself out of your territory and not bother you anymore." With a slight bow, he ducked through the grass after Norma.
"Yowch!" howled Norma as Lehnrak's spear hit her paw. She bent down to pull it out and threw it back at the place where she though he was hiding. "Oh, this isn't my day," she moaned as she nursed the other wounds she had gotten while scampering away.

NuuicClickJaw jumped out of the grass infront of her, spear level with her throat,"Quigka manochakilci na mao Caro bin! I gutso gratna grup inacha yalak." Translated"Drop the gold now! Or I spill guts yours on rocks." He swung the spear slicing the bags open and spilling hte gold all over the ground.
Arochk nodded,"But the vixen is mine, she will die after I torture her." He grinned showing all his fangs and pointed into the brush,"Coins falling. That pest NuuicClickJaw has found her." He growled and pulled out a disk with teeth on it."I shall cripple her."

"NuuicClickJaw? Oh, the cheetah." Ryder ran over to the bush along with Arochk. "You can kill the vixen if you'd like. But I want at least one good hit for all the trouble she and her gang have caused me."
Norma screamed even louder than she had when Lehnrak's spear had hit her, as if losing her money was more painful than losing her blood. As she saw the hedgehog and black lion aproaching, she grabbed all the coins that would fit in her paws and pockets before getting out of there.
