Ten Thousand Fists

[tangletail]

Leo soon sat down on a nearby stump and sighed as he looked himself over.  He pulled his tail into his lap, staying very tentative to what around him as he proceeds to work. He slowly removed the bandage from his tail, letting out a hiss as it peeled away from the flesh. Now his eyes started to water as the tail was exposed to the air, burning in a searing pain. “Should have asked for medicine…” he thought to himself as he brought the tip to his tongue and began licking it clean wincing at every lick till it was clean from the dried up blood and dirt.

"i never really thought about it, i mean i know world peace is waaayyyy to much to ask for but just to end all this useless slaughter would be a start." marco noticed the evil looking grin and couldn't help but grin himself, "so whats with the grin? you expecting something to happen?"

A lone figure runs through a dark forest, breathing heavily and clutching his left shoulder. He stops behind a tree and grabs a shoulder bag hanging on his right arm. I think I lost them, he thought, grimacing as he rolls up his left sleeve and looks at the damage. He gingerly goes to touch a large gash that he nad received from a shuriken thrown at him by one of the king's soldiers.

"AHH!" he says softly, looking more closely at the wound. It's pretty deep, he thought. I don't think I can heal this myse.. what's that?

Noises of movement were coming from a clearing ahead. Rolling his sleeve back down, he slung the bag over his right shoulder, drew a strange-looking dagger from a holster on his vest, and advanced carefully and quietly. He prepared himself, then stepped through the branches into a large area.

"What in the world?" he murmered, staring in awe at the furry village in front of him. "This shouldn't be here..." He noticed two other furries, a fox man and a female snow leopard, sitting and talking at a nearby table. The girl seemed very wise and powerful, despite her young age.

(willow is not a anthro, Sapien Animales....she is full human with only snow leopard ears and tail...the village has humans, anthros and mix breeds) the smell of heavenly apple pie reached her nose as the lady placed generous size pie slices in front of them, with a small cup of sweet wine.
"I always suspect that something will happen"  she said simple, eating her pie slice. "Its embedded into me"

a man taller than the kid, grabbed him by his right shoulder, looking down at him "hey, kid your not suppose to be here" he dragged him elsewhere

[tangletail]

Leo soon lifted his shirt slightly frowning at his cut, it looked rather disturbing to him. It didn't seem infected however it might as well be from the mix of dirt and fur that was tangled within the wound. It did leave off a stinch but only of dried blood which was putrid enough to make anyone vomit. However the feline looked at it casually already haveing to deal with this for a majority of his life, this was no stranger to him. "I Swear... I am going to die of Gangrene" he thought to himself as he slowly glanced around the area looking for a small pool of hopefully clean water.

[Grace.E]

a young man saw the ex slave looking for water, seeing the cut on his body he stopped him "hey, kid..I'm a medical doctor, let me help you with that" he said kindly, assuming he was a new recruit.

[Cifero Windtail]

Meanwhile, Rick is still asking the large man where he is.

[tangletail]

Leo blinked turning to the man as he sat on the stomp. He glanced up and down the man searching for any possible sign of 'Kings Man'. Finding absolutely no signs he couldn't help but to thank his luck for the conviency, secretly within his own mind he was jumping up and down like a sugar hyped child. "Th-thanks! Talk about a stroke of luck!" he chirpped in a thankful tone.

[Grace.E]

the man looked at the wound "well come with me to my clinic, we will get you straighten up, you need a bath and some clothes too" he led Leo to his clinic

[tangletail]

Leo removed himself from the stump and followed the man "A bath? You make it sound..." he started in a somewhat jokeingly offended tone but quickly trailed off thinking about the past and the last time he had an actual bath and not a swim through some random river "Oh... right never mind" he finished flicking his left ear in embarassment.

[Grace.E]

the man said nothing an pushed him into a line of others, human, anthro, mixed breed. in a perfect straight line.

"Mistress, your are needed at the recruiter sight" a lizard anthro told, Willow sighed, setting down her fork, nodding to Marco she followed the anthro with fluid grace, reaching the line of people, she looked at each and every one in the eyes with her stunning green eyes. many shivered or winced under her stare, she stopped in front of a kid with a slight wound on his shoulder. nodded to one of the men, who nodded back, code for taking him to the clinic when the 'lecture' was done.

"as you may know, you may of come here, aware of the King's cruelty.." she paused as she stood facing them, "many of heard of the 'legend' I presume?"
some nodded, some utterly nervous. "this is... a clan who is allied with the mysterious 'Queen of Thieves'.." some smiled, some agape. one raised her hand "yes?" Willow replied
"where is she located at this time?"
"I have absolutely no idea where she is located, finding and catching her is like trying to find a flea in a hay stack" the woman looked sad for a brief moment. she looked at the wounded kid for a moment "these humans, anthros and Sapien Animlaes...are your brother and sisters, do not think of them any differently, they will stop you if they see any amount of prejudice"

the doctor smiled "come kid, lets get you feeling better" walking into the clinic, he told Leo to sit in a chair while he grabbed some stuff.

[tangletail]

Leo sat down on the chair and began to scan over the clinic finding it a bit unsettleing to be in. He had an urge to get up and leave but he forced himself to stay on the promise of survival. With that he removed his hand from his stomach and called out to the Doc. "Not sure if this helps but. I also have a serious cut on my back, outer left thigh and..." he trailed off bringing his tail up infront of himself to show off the missing portion of the tail that was void of infections like the rest of the wounds but was at least clean however still untreated "A slightly amputated tail"

[Grace.E]

"well you had it rough" the doc said gently as he began treating the wounds "good thing my brother is...a inventor of some sort, this is not the first time I have treated an amputated tail, he has a whole slew of mechanical ones that will fix your balance straight up" he cleaned up the on his stomach, back and bandaged up his amputated tail. then tossing him a pair of deer leather pants and a soft shirt " spend the night here so I can check up on you tomorrow, you can meet Willow"

[tangletail]

The feline looked up recalling a specific word "Sounds like a...pro....protech...prosthetic limb? And... it sounds painful" he added not really enjoying the idea of a mechanical limb being attached to him.

[Grace.E]

I I assure you kiddo, he designed it to be utterly painless,it moves just like a regular tail" he smiled kindly, "see I have one" he showed it to the kid, fliking it around like a normal tail. "I am a sapien animales...with only a tail"
