Mari pressed her blde into the ferret's throat warningly. If yer lyin', I'll be the least of yer worries. My friend Rio can't abide vermin or liars. You'd best hope yer tellin' the truth, ferret.

The ferret glared at her with his odd crimson gaze, saying only one word in return as he looked back at Ghost. "Well?!"
Ghost drew the katana out of its scabbard slowly, albeit grudgingly, and true to the ferret's word there was a triangle with a dot in the center at the bottom of the blade, next to the hilt.
"See?!"

Both otter looked at each other and looked between the two creatures stunnedly. Had the fox been lying this whole time? Or was it all just an honest mistake on Ghost's part? Who was really telling the truth? Neither of them could understand what had just happened.

The ferret smirked, seeing the otters in disbelief. "I toldje! He's the thief!"
For one being accused, Ghost seemed awfully calm. Sheathing the katana once more, he replied, "So you held my sword long enough to know that it had that symbol on it. Big deal." He replied.

Both otters kept silent, watching the two creatures before them. They wondered what would happen next between them. And why exactly was Ghost so calm about being accused when the ferret freaked out?

The ferret seemed to think a bit at this, then responded, "It's only natural that the owner of a sword knows its characteristics."
At this, Ghost sighed and shook his head. "Then I suppose you know that it was forged in Lotara? That it has a rare mineral folded into the steel?"
"Um, yeah..." The ferret lied. "Sure you do." Ghost said, walking closer to the ferret.

Both otters held their breath with wide eyes. They were tensed tightly and trembling slightly, almost afraid for the ferret. Almost. They almost didn't want to know what was going to happen.

As Ghost neared the ferret, he saw his chance. The ropes he had been working so hard to cut through with a second dagger tucked onto the back of his belt fell down and he charged the unsuspecting fox with a cry of desperation.
It was safe to say that Ghost was caught off-guard. The ferret ran at him with his dagger, while his own blade remained in its sheath. As the ferret rushed towards him, time began to slow. His blade only cleared half of the scabbard before the dagger miraculously deflected off of it, cutting the fox's side instead of driving deep into his stomach. Giving out a reflexive cry of pain, Ghost was then thrown down by the still-rushing ferret, who now held the dagger at his throat.
"Damn... you..." Ghost managed to growl out, both creatures at a standstill.

Rio gave a savage roar of fury. Weilding his staff with red tinged eyes he rished headlong at the ferret with his staff ready to knock him off of the defenceless fox and teeth ready to rip into flesh.

"Don't move, Riverdog!" The ferret yelled out as he prodded Ghost's throat with the dagger, creating a minute cut beneath the red-orange fur. "I'm getting outta here with MY sword!" he announced. Ghost coughed, but glared at the ferret.

Rio stared at him, his blazing red eyes full of hate and his snarling mouth flecked with foam. Mari was snarling as well, although not as ferally as Rio. She had her sword and staff postioned to fight. Rio snarled, Let him go you coward and come fight me properly, scum!!

No. Stay out of this." Ghost told him. "It's my fight." The ferret smirked again, though how sane he appeared as he did was questionable. "Fight? You've already lost!"
Ghost glared at him, expression calm as he told him in that cold, emotionless voice, "I haven't even started yet." With lightning speed he brought up his clenched left paw out of nowhere, slamming it into the ferret's face and sending him back off of him. The ferret now yelped in pain as the right side of his forehead began to swell a bit. Ghost got up first, but the ferret recovered just as quicly a second later, biting back the ache. Ghost's own paw was bruised as well from the impact. They stood, facing each other, the otters behind the fox. Ghost rushed at the ferret, blade now out of the scabbard and into his paws.
Launching himself at the ferret with a mighty roar, Ghost chopped downward with the katana, only to be blocked by the dagger. Then the fight began in earnest.

Both otters watched the fight in awe with wide eyes.Both their tempers had calmed considerably now that their friend was no longer defnceless. The red tinge in Rio's eye was starting to fade as well.

Metal struck medal, dagger against sword, ferret versus fox, each roaring out in rage at the other. They kept fighting, the ferret clamping his jaws around Ghost's paw. Ghost shouted and dropped his sword, but threw the ferret off of him.
The crimson-eyed beast came back with the dagger in paw, stabbing at Ghost, while he dodged the thrust. This occoured thrice until Ghost grabbed the ferret's wrist, managing to disarm his opponent as well. It turned into a vicious fistfight, each biting, clawing and scratching at the other for what seemed an eternity, staining the green grass with drops of blood.
It was only when Ghost bit at the ferret's neck that the fight stopped. His opponent let out one last howl of unimaginable pain, and went limp. His jaws covered with blood, Ghost heaved the ferret's body aside and leaned against a nearby tree, fatigued, scratched and cut in a dozen different places. The glade went silent again, the only sound being that of the fox's heavy breathing.

The otters both stood trembling scaredly after watching the fight. After a few moments, Mari gathered her courage and crept forward quietly, looking over Ghost's injuries and tending to them quietly.
