Silence, is this my perfect serenity? Sliding with pictorial peace in the crystal water toward the isle, an unnamed beast surged with unwavering speed and thoughts, "Whut culd ave made such a cry? Where did ths creature come frum?"
Approaching the sloped submerged cliff of the island he once called home he came up for breath from the extravagant blue depths. The numerous coral reefs coating the coasts forced him to keep from diving longer. The reason, he was forced to weave between the vibrantly coloured trees of the sea throughout the rainbow garden of the ocean.

To his surprise, the first thing he saw upon arrival to shore was a middle-aged jack rabbit. He was composed of torn ears wearing a patched brown and blue plaid celt and a pair of bracelets that matched his tribal earrings. This scrappy snow-white fellow was charging a large beast. The tree shaded beast was hunched over a small body on the shore. Before he could blink from the salt sprays spurting off the unsubmerged corral, the rabbit had already advanced and given the beast three rapid blows to the face, which he referred to later as "The good old bob n' weave combo wot wot!" Lashing out in anger and pain from a lost tooth, the komodo named Gorter swung his tail around in a sweeping manner and nicked the rabbits leg just enough to throw him off-balance. Taking his opportunity, Gorter hissed. "Now it'sss time for you to die you fury maggot." As he went for a lunge toward the feisty fighter.

The un-named stranger had seen enough, before the lizard could make it's final blow he threw his barinum bladed tomahawk with which he barley let leave his paw. The reason, the ancient blade is the only thing left from his past. Making contact with such force that it shattered its target. Laying in pieces was a shark tooth dagger blade."Stay still if yur keen n' livin!" Boomed the stranger in a deep echo, advancing from the choppy, tossed water. Even though the lizard was a large beast Trock Paw was a giant and in comparison the komodo made it to Trock's shoulders.

Gary now fully aware of the new situation was in utter silence, then the scrappy rabbits ignorance kicked in. "You've better stay away from my captive mate!" Bringing his paw to his face he proceeded with shock. "He was right where I had him then you blumin threw that there tree and trimmed my precious whiskers on what? The left side of my face, wot wot!" Trock was from a clan of noble blood, but not raised as so. He apologized with a smile. "I wus nt tryin to still yur victory my friend. If yah wish I shall leave yah to yer duel." Gary noticing him as a hierarchy by his speech diversity of this barbaric waters and bowed. " At your most gracious services m' lord."

Trock took a slight awkward bow. Not being treated as royalty before caught him off guard."Me an a dear friend have been abandoned. The first mate and the crew did an act of crime as to slave trade, which had gotten us stranded for some time now. We would not consent to the cruelty wot wot, so they left us fur dead, the bloody scaly heads!" Continued Gary in a angered, but saddened tone. Both had turned toward the wrathful lizard in disgust, noticed that the creature had lost its hand that held the knife. It still clutched the handle of the broken dagger." You will pay dearly for thissss." Came a menacing growl from the barely moving lips, if that's what you would call them. Still showing his teeth in threat, he groped his handles wrist as his gaze pierced the air. Gary angrily spat, "Let me my lord put this fowl beatsie to rest wot wot? He has just killed inowsence of a yewth-." Cut short a breath.

"Freckles!" Came a horrifyingly painful cry. An beautifully armor-clad red panda trampled with great momentum out of the wood on all fours. Her armor more fitting than fur alone. "What Have you done!? Who did this!?" Her petite yet sold mass quivered as she spoke and painfully gestured toward the babe. Both Trock and Gary knew not to say a word. For an evil vengeance was in the maiden's eye. Her very appearance made a shadow of silent fear cloud the humid air.

In the same instance they both pointed toward the now pale terror-stricken lizard, who was attempting to slink away unnoticed. Before he could speak the panda reached him; had her claws in his shoulder and pinned him to the ground centimeters from her face."You!" Came the most hateful lingered noise from her quivering mouth. She looked as if she would give up on being a Herbivor the way her teeth showed bloodlust and veins pulsed in her eyes, "You have taken your last breath!"

With a speed that could barely be seen, she ripped her claws through his shoulder past his throat, leaving his quivering body as he groped at his neck. He whispered something and she turned back toward his face to listen in a partial growing shock. "I'm sssorry...." He wheezed as blood exited with air bubbles through his neck. His tail and eyes simultaneously twitched as he continued. "I am a sscum of the sssea *Wheeze* with every right to be hated. My sssinsss er greater than the ocean. Don't fight her, sshe made ussss *cough* do it,.... *wheeze* forgive m-" He exhaled his last breath with his only hand on the warrior maidens arm.

Turning toward the cub with confusion she roared a beastly blood-curdling cry, with only one word to express, "Why!" -At this moment, she sounded more alike a mindless beast.- Dragging herself to the motionless body, she cringed as she picked him up. After mourning Garry dug two holes and let her place the little panda's body soulfully in the earth. Garry buried the foe and replaced the sand while Trock's massive paw was placed on the red armored maiden's shoulder as she trembled with grief.
