BOOOOM~!Hundred's of birds scurry from the trees, deep within the Mystic Ruins. Over the heights of Overgrowth, a small windmill can be seen. There wasn't much wind so it wasn't mobile. 'Feel's Good~' The large Purple colored cat, was body slamming the ground, trying to shake fruit from the surrounding trees. Froggy'Ribbit... Ribbit...' a Small green frog was close by, jumping up and down. 'Hey~ BUUDDDDDY.' Big walked over to the small frog, picked him up and placed him on his shoulder. 'Looky at all this yummy fruit I gots us' He collected all the fruit and placed it in a basket. 'Lets go Home~' Big waddled back to his small hut.

Axe:
Living in the city, you know you gotta survive... Living in the city, you gotta keep that dream alive...
Axe shook the annoying "theme song" of his hometown out of his head as he leaped from tree branch to tree branch, flying through the canopy of Mystic Ruins in a blur of red and black.
"Yeah, living in the city... That's what I wish I could be doing right now..." he mumbled to himself. He eventually came to a stop on one of the tree branches and stood there for a moment, deep in thought.
"Which reminds me... Why am I here again? I thought I heard someone say that rings were always just lying around out in the sticks. Nice to see that leaving Radical City had such a huge pay off..."
His thoughts were interrupted when a loud rumble came resonating throught the jungle, causing him to slip on the branch and nearly fall off.
"What in Chaos' name was that?" he grumbled, scouting around for the source of the shockwave, "Don't tell me that flying hunk of an island crashed into the ground again. "
Wrapping his fist around an overgrown vine for support, the hyena leaned out dangerously far on his pearch, almost to the point that he was in a horizontal position, looking straight down at what was below him. He could see a large cat carrying an armful of fruit lumbering through the undergrowth.
"Hmm..." Axe pondered, pointing at his own temple as if it would help him to think, "Then again, maybe I can get something out of this..."
Quickly and quietly, the hyena began stalking the cat, crawling across the upper foliage without making a single sound. As he made his way along, the song started playing in his head again.
Living in the city, you know you gotta survive...
Axe just let out a quiet chuckle. Of course he was gonna survive... At this guy's expense.

Big's ears pricked up. "Did you hear summit' Fwoggy? He looked at his little buddy. "Rib-bit.." Froggy gave Big a blank look. Big laughed. "Hyuck Hyuck Nevermind, Fwoggy." He carried on towards his hut.

Axe:
The hyena stopped dead in his tracks, not moving a muscle. He mentally cursed himself as the huge cat began looking around at his immediate surroundings. How could've he heard such a low chuckle!?
Then again, his ears were pretty large...
Yeah, that would be just what I need... Axe thought to himself as he crouched low behind a few leafy branches, covering him from his victim's view, Being detected by a morbidly obese cat. Reeeeeal good on the ol' self-esteme...
Once the cat shrugged off the noise and continued onward, Axe picked up the pace again and went after him. Eventually, a small hut, which he assumed to be the jungle-dweller's residence, came into view.
Heh, mark that as one thing I like about looting people outside the city: less security. The sucker probably has his life savings stashed under his bed mattress. Now, to wait until the opportune time to strike...

Big finally arrived at his cabin. "Hyuck, Hyuck. We betta but this fwuit somewheres safe, huh fwoggy?" he giggled. Big lifted his bed up and placed the large amount of fruit underneath and covered it with a blanket. "Ribbit!" cried Froggy. "Fwoggy? What's up, Buuudddyyy? Oh yeah, we were gonna go fishing! Hyuck." Big picked up his rod and takles and sat at the large pool by his hut.

Axe:
Fruit.
All the cat had was fruit.
Oh, and the occasional stinky fish. Couldn't forget that.
Axe found all this out moments after diving in through a window once Big had left his hut. The place was relatively sparce, taking the hyena only a minute or so to case completely. Sure enough, there was absolutely nothing of value within the hut.
"Great, just great..." Axe grumbled quietly, picking up one of the pieces of fruit he found and taking a bite, "He's one of those 'miminalists' who believes in 'forsaking all material things and just living off the land'..."
He spat the fruit back out, more out of spite than from disgust.
"How I hate them."
Frustrated, he kicked at the dirt floor, lifting up a small cloud of dust. Suddenly, his eyes caught something glimmering in the middle of the fog. Kneeling down, he discovered that it was the side of a gold ring.
"Ah, so he buries them... Clever, but not clever enough."
And so, Axe began digging furiously but silently, unearthing more rings to add to his slowly growing collection... and taking away from Big's.

Big knew something was up, but he carried on fishing carelessly. "Hmm.. somefings not right, buudddyy.." he said quietly "... ribbit!" he said. Froggy looked around at the hut and saw a strange figure digging up Big's life savings. Big looked down at Froggy then looked at his home. He noticed the Hyena digging up his rings. "HEY! GET AWAY FROM THEIR!! he cried. In an attempt to catch the theif the swang his fishing pole at the hyena, trying to tangle him up in his line.

Axe:
[dice=6]
Big's trick did work... For about two seconds. After that, the fishing line dropped to the ground in dozens of pieces. The hyena grinned sinisterly and held up his hands, revealing a pair of switchblades that were previously concealed in the cuffs of his gloves.
"Nice try," Axe taunted.
He began slowly walking towards Big, grabbing the end of the line still connected to the fishing pole and wrapping it around his fist.
"Do you really want to do this?" the hyena asked, "No matter what happens, it won't end well for one of us, that I promise. Let me off, and you won't have to worry about your little friend becoming a French dish."
He gave the line a mocking tug, feigning an attempt to pull it out of Big's hands.
"So, what will it be?"[rand=8772421453464163335174441023668449301804880274330286496863604606]

Big was getting rather angry now. "Nobody teases me or my fwends!" he cried. Big pulled his line forward and tried to throw Axe into the air in an attempt to spin him round in a circular motion. (Imagine his giant spike ball in Sonic heroes) [dice=6][rand=6103685308616442534984507812186428625557397937515943130596295022]

Axe:
[dice=6]
Big managed to pull Axe around a short distance, but the hyena quickly dug his feet into the ground - a relatively easy feat considering all the undergrowth the jungle had - and kept himself from going airborn.
"I take it that's a 'yes' then..." Axe observed, seeing how Big was clearly refusing to back down, "Very well, I suppose I could play for a little while..."
Pulling on the fishing line to gain a little extra momentum, Axe leaped towards Big, getting his fist ready to deliver a punch.
However, right before swinging at Big, he flipped the switchblade on his wrist up again, making sure that his first blow at Big would be extra... sharp.

[dice=6] But treading through the watery path, a while koala girl ran for dear life, suffering from the fear of losing a friend. When she heard that Mina was captured, Barby lost all her common sense, and tried to chase after something she cannot chase on foot. Heck, the kidnapper was no where in sight. But with the emotional stress of a mother, she did not listen to such facts. "MINA!!!!!!" she cried as she was about to run past where the battle took place... ...and right in front of the speedy blade. "AAAHH!!!" But with reflex, Barby took out her hockey stick and shielded herself. But the fierce force of the knife knocked her off her feet, landing near Big. Shaking the wooziness, Barby then noticed a knife stuck in her hockey stick. She gasped. "THE HELL?!?!?" [rand=8438021143463913537190082173440263998369333170426098733931862834]

Big flopped to the ground, shaking all the trees around him. This was all too exciting for the great Oaf. He lifted himself off the ground. "Leave my pwoperty right naow!" he cried. He attempted his level 3 fishing attack (Giant Spikeball) and flung it at Axe. [dice=6][rand=6200109261291535642461057440526432058136189157072245898475403169]

[dice=6] Axe was still trying to get over the sudden appearance of the koala bear girl before realizing, much too late, that Big had begun another attack. Getting hit by the giant, spiked ball sent Axe flying across the clearing before slaming into the side of Big's hut, leaving a very noticible crack in the wall. Slowly getting back to his feet, he brushed the splinters out of his fur and tried to bring his switchblades out again... Only to realize that one of them was missing. Scanning around, he finally found the blade... embedded in the hockey stick that the new girl was holding. Putting on a rather sinister grin, he motioned at the koala. "I believe that it would be in your best interest to give that back to me," he insisted, inching slowly closer to the girl, "unless you want to join that cat and his frog on the endangered species list, that is."[rand=2934024020597480484771889427054722810547090664649028831275429616998]

Just her luck. She got out of that tower of doom, and only run into a psycho. This was REALLY her lucky day. If she could, she wouldn't care; just give the crazy his knife and run off to find Mina. But...this guy was harrasssing this giant cat, and she can't let him hurt him. Argh, me and my stupid good heart!! Pulling the knife out of her stick, she held it and the knife at Axe. "Oi, I am so NOT in a good mood! Don't make me, ya looney wanker!!"

Axe just let out a low chuckle. Who did this girl think she was? The hyena outstretched his arms, practically inviting the koala to take a strike. "Pff... Try me," he taunted, "I wouldn't be surprised if that hockey stick is made of plywood."

Big smiled at the sight of the Koala. He took Froggy off his shoulder and placed him on a near-by boulder. "This is your last warning, hyena. It's not nice to tease me of my fwends AND damage my pwoporty!" he cried. He began jumping up and down; throwing his weight to the ground, trying to knock Axe to the floor.

[dice=6] Had Axe not been busy taunting Barby, he probably would've been able to respond acordingly to Big's earthquake maneuver. However, he was, so he now found himself losing his balance and falling face-first. At the last second, he was able to get a hand out in front of him to break his fall somewhat, proping himself up off the ground like he was getting ready to do a 100 meter sprint, but regardless, he was now even more vurnerable than he was before. That didn't make him any less cocky, though. " That's the best you can do?" the hyena asked, looking up from the ground and trying his best to sound confident even though there was a hint of uneasiness in his voice, "Haul your fat butt around to start earthquakes? Step aside, chubby; I think I could have a little more fun with the girl, anyway."[rand=27832804367737658920345900504991766781779116688822896323215975633]

Little did he knew, Barby's rage can burn really good, and annoying her while she's worried to death over Mina is not a good thing. And she's really getting sick of running into crazies. "This stick is made outta the hardest oak EVER!!!" she roared, swinging it for Axe's head. [dice=6] [rand=856166182996773288251343087590866210097226837439087023818925706]

Big saw Barby's attack as an oppatunity to attack Axe, also. He swung is fishing rod at Axe in a sort of Double team with Barby's Hockey Stick. [dice=6] [rand=84787172850066278501883104368078026959159419137077245939083144413]

[dice=6] - Barby [dice=6] - Big Axe was expecting that maybe Barby would get a cheap shot in on him while he was down. However, he was not expecting to get hit by both a hockey stick and a fishing rod. The combined force sent him flying, once again, across the clearing, this time through the door of the hut and coming to a halt somewhere inside, accompanied by a loud crash. He eventually came stumbling out, tangled up in a bed sheet. After a few moments, he ripped the sheet to shreads with the switchblade he still had. He then adjusted his neck, resulting in a series of loud, cracking noises. All this time, the hyena never took his eyes off the duo, instead continuing to stare intently at them. "Alright, I see you two aren't pushovers after all..." Axe commented, pausing a moment to spit some blood out of his mouth and then wiping the residue off his lips, "Things have just gotten a lot more interesting, haven't they?" Without warning, Axe ran straight for the two characters, first taking a swipe at Big with his knife and then delivering a sharp kick at Barby's chest.

[dice=6] Though Axe may not have learned about a woman's fury, because he shall receive it. First of all, right when Barby caught his leg, she tossed it, making him spin, and then she angrily swung a fierce kick to where the sun don't shine.

Big dodged the hyena swipe which gave Barby the chance to send him flying. "This is your last warning, strwanger. Leave!"
Big attempted to tie the hyena up again with his fishing. "Huyaa!" he cried as he swung his rod towards Axe.

[dice=6] - Barby [dice=6] - Big The good news: Axe avoided getting tangled in Big's line again. The bad news: He pretty much lost his manhood in the process. The hyena was now lying on the ground, clutching to what used to be was near and dear to him. He rocked side-to-side while on his back, in obvious pain. "Oh gosh..." He moaned, trying to hold back tears, "Jeez... The pain... It's just... Gah..." Suddenly, in an instant, his face changed from one of pain back to another sinister glare. "Made you look." He immediately leaped back up onto his feet and took another swipe with his switchblade, this time at Barby's face.

[dice=6] That would be likely, if Barby hadn't taken a few classes in martial arts. Well it wasn't to teach her to defend herself, it was to control her temper. But she haven't finished because she lost her temper in class. But she learned enough to know how to quickly dodge someone with a weapon. So, as soon as she saw Axe with the weapon, Barby quickly ducked, having her back near his chest. But she grabbed his neck, and jumped, hoping that, when she lands, his neck would slam on her shoulder, HARD!! "And that's the bottom line, cuz Barby said so!!" [dice=6] [rand=9882455632952186808041603332364981880503205727441600132649391186]

[dice=6] "Slam" didn't describe it so much as "sideswipe", as Axe managed to sidestep ever-so-slightly while she was in the air, causing her to hit him in the arm instead. He still got hit, but it wasn't a direct hit and thus it didn't hurt (as much as it would have, anyway) or stun him. His pride, on the other hand, was starting to get pretty banged up. "Geez, for the love of Chaos..." the hyena grumbled, rubbing his now sore shoulder, "This is why I hate fair fights... I can't win 'em." Suddenly, he spotted Froggy sitting on the boulder where Big had placed him. That cat seemed to like his little amphibian friend an awful lot... Axe thought to himself, That might make a good barganing chip...And so, seeking to gain some "leverage" in the situation, Axe lunged foward in an attempt to catch Froggy.

Now only a few feet away from the rock Froggy was sitting on, the hyena lunged again to grab the amphibian.

Froggy wasn't paying much attention to battle, he'd been watching a butterly hovering above a near-by flower. When he did turn around, the first thing he saw was a hyena lunging for him. "RIBBIT~!" he cried Froggy jumped up in the air, hoping to dodge impending doom. [dice=6][rand=099353858564714238624257458333577513369514968401909489610821032995]

(using the 5 Axe rolled earlier against Froggy's 1) The frog, however, was not fast enough. In a flash, Axe was upon Froggy, got his hands around the amphibian, and put his switchblade against Froggy's throat. "Okay, now listen up before you keep clobbering me with fishing rods, hockey sticks, or whatever the heck else you nutjobs have stashed in your hammerspace," Axe demanded as he backed slowly away, pressing the blade against Froggy's skin, "I've got three simple requests: Fatso, give me your money. Crazy girl, you give me back my other switchblade that somehow made a residence in your hockey stick. And both of you, let me get way and don't try to follow me. Failure to follow any of these requests results in this guy 'croaking'. Got it memorized?"
