Jernath wasn't sure why Cat Assassin was running to the back of the inn as fast as he was, but nonetheless, he followed, quietly and carefully, hopefully so he wouldn't be heard. He watched as the Cat crouched into the bushes, and then...
Oh gosh, Jernath couldn't help but think when the feline started to throw up. Did he eat something bad? But then again, he wasn't sure it was even physically possible to upchuck that much. Whatever it was, it definitely didn't seem normal.
Rather than confronting Cat Assassin, Jernath instead went to go find the other ninjas, namely PFA. If there was something wrong with him, they'd probably know more about it than he would.
---
PFA nodded in response to Zaha's comment of following Uncle. SRGNG just remained silent, following the girl ninjas without words.
The group started going off after Uncle. But they had only managed to get so far before Jernath came up to them, stopping them.
"Guys, I think there's something wrong with Cat Assassin. He seems really sick," was all Jernath managed to say before PFA had hurried by, concerned for her Uncle's well-being. She didn't even bother waiting for the others. Not even Zaha, who was following Uncle's scent.
"Uncle?" PFA called out, looking around for the cat in question. Wherever he was, she was going to find him. He couldn't have gotten too far...

Cat Assassin looked at his vomit in sheer disgust and surprise. The red berries he ate the night before were present, all in their perfect form. Worse, they were replicating by the minute. He could feel his head being figuratively tossed around by some sort of poison the berries contained.
How his good sense of smell failed to detect the harmful substance in them was quite bizarre to him. For a few times in his past journey, he was able to know immediately by their scent what food was edible.
Had the rogue ninja done that to him?
Cat Assassin tried to shout for help, but he was beginning to slur. His sight was starting to darken until he could no longer see. His body twitched and turned as a reaction to the berries' poison.
"Blooooooooooood..." he growled.

"Uncle? Uncle!" PFA continued her search, desperate to find her Uncle before something... something bad happened. She grimaced at the thought. All she knew was he was sick. But sick how?
It occurred to her that if she had stayed and allowed Jernath to explain, she probably would have known, but she quickly batted that thought away.
"Blooooooooooood..." came a moan, which was not at all comforting to the young ninja. She promptly headed in the direction the moan had come from. It sounded close...
"Oh my gosh, Uncle!" PFA yelped, when the cat finally came into her sight. "Are you alright?" Another look at the ground near her Uncle confirmed that he was, in fact, not alright. The only response she could come up with was, "Oh my... Uncle?!"

By the time the other ninjas were able to find Cat Assassin, the feline looked much different than before. His orange fur stood out against and even through his long gray coat, and the usually cold expression on his face became that of a wild beast released from his cage.
The presence of his niece among the ninjas would've made Cat Assassin warn them about what was going on, but this time he failed to do so. All he could think of was blood.
Cat Assassin began rushing towards PFA, his nails quickly morphed into claws. The splint on his knee just splitted in half while he ran.

Zaha arrived a beat behind the rest, just in time to see CA rush at PFA. The look on his face was not pleasant. Making one of the snap decisions she usually hated making, She balled her fists and charged at Cat Assassin, preparing to do something distracting. Maybe a cartwheel. Maybe the notion was ridiculous.
While running, she grabbed the Sylian stone out of its pouch and rested it in one hand. Then she ignored it, leaving it to do it's own thing, which seemd to be posessing her katana. Since the Guild's War, It had meshed more with her as a person- she now had a cynical edge to her personality and the Stone had some notion of mercy. Whatever your doing, can it please not be lethal?

PFA yelped in fear when Uncle started charging at her. "Uncle, what are you doing?! It's just me! Stop it!"
"You're gonna get yourself killed!" Jernath ran up to PFA, pulling her out of the way before Cat Assassin could do anything to her. Just as Zaha was starting to do her cartwheel or whatever it was she was doing, Jernath got out an arrow and aimed it at the raging cat, just in case.
"No, that's my Uncle! Don't hurt him!" PFA shouted in protest.
"If I have to, I will," was Jernath's response.
PFA grimaced, glancing over and noticing that even SRGNG was pulling out his staff, holding it ready, just in case. But the girl ninja refused to take out any weapons just yet. This was still her Uncle, after all.
"Please, Uncle, snap out of it!" she called out, desperate that he would somehow respond to her voice.
On an unrelated and unimportant note, some of the town's citizens started grumbling about how the ninja 'guests' were making so much noise at such a late hour. Weren't ninjas supposed to be sneaky, and, well, silent?

Cat Assassin hissed, reacting very weirdly to the Sylian Stone's power wielded around Zaha's katana. Something eminating in it was preventing him from even touching a speck of Zaha's fur. Needless to say, he faced his niece with such unusual aggression within him.
"Can't you shut up over there?!" a random shout came from the houses near them. "Someone's trying to sleep here!"
The wild cat growled in return and started rushing towards the source of the shout. Whoever owned that voice better would have any weapon lying around.

Please don't cal me a n00b or something, I just want to participate.
Name:Bettyming Appearance: Human ,dark blue hoodie, zippered, hood up, darkwash jeans, black sneaker, smooth, oval shaped mask with only two eyes and a frowning mouth. Weapon(s): Small katana Other abilities: Disease/healing abilities
As Cat Assasin rushed towards the door to get to the source of the shout, he was ambushed by another ninja who had jumped through the window at the inn. After kicking Cat Assasin in the head, she coldly glared at thim, and most of his pupils went gray. He continued swinging at the unknown ninja, clearly not able to see. The new ninja kicked a pressure point, gave another glare, and Cat Assasin could breathe but not move. "Silly rougue. She thinks a body is simply a soul and squishy stuff. How wrong. A body is made of billions of cells. Cells that can be attacked, weakened, or destroyed. Like the eye cells that can have cataracts. Or nerve cells that can die and can have paralysis. Bettyming at your service. If I have done my research right, the rougue ninja you seek is capable of very poweful darkness magic. Do you remeber if this ninja ate some berries? They were a trap, they weaken one's soul so that the rougue can easily take over."
All the ninjas in the room wondered, "Can this person be trusted?"

((^_^; Bettyming, I'm assuming you're new at RPing, but I just thought I should tell you that taking control of other people's characters is kinda frowned upon, unless you have permission to do so. Not that it's that big a deal, but just a little something you should keep in mind...))
"Uncle, wait!" PFA yelped when Cat Assassin started chasing after the angry voice of one of the town citizens. The girl ninja chased after her Uncle, hoping she could stop him.
"PFA, don't!" came an unheeded shout from Jernath. "He'll hurt you!"
PFA didn't care. She knew her Uncle was in there, and she still hoped that if she pleaded enough, he would come to his senses on his own. She hoped violence wasn't necessary.
Thus why she was so appalled when some unknown ninja came up and kicked her Uncle, twice, rendering him unable to move.
"You monster!" PFA yelled at the ninja, once they had finished talking. "That was my Uncle!"
"Are you blind, PFA?! He was crazy!" came another unheeded shout from Jernath.
PFA walked over to her Uncle and tried to see if he was okay, while SRGNG and Jernath came over to face this strange new ninja.
"Berries? I don't remember him eating any berries," SRGNG said with a shrug. "But anyway, thanks for helping us out there, Bettyming. My name's--"
"He could have eaten some while we weren't looking, maybe," Jernath thought aloud, interrupting SRGNG. He then started giving Bettyming a look over. "Where did you come from, anyway? And how do you know about the rogue?" he narrowed his eyes a little, wary of this mysterious new ninja.

Bettyming thought for a moment. "I'm from about 8 miles away from your Strategic Headquarters. I know about the rougue because, well, I used to be with another group of ninjas, until the rogue defeated them all. I wasn't at our headquarters at the time, I had very important business to attend to, and when I came back to m headquarters, it was basically a smoldering pile of ashes. So, I'm trying to get revenge on the rogue. And, about the berries, I was walking around and I saw the bush with some berries missing from it and I was thinking 'That rogue is running out of ideas.' So then I traced the footprints, and here I am." PFA, that was pretty much my first RP post in the history of the universe.

PFA, that was pretty much my first RP post in the history of the universe. ((Welcome, then. I'd suggest you read this tutorial for roleplaying so you can understand further how to roleplay. You've already committed godmodding awhile ago, but we can forgive you if you're very new .))

Zaha glanced at Bettyming only breifly, then stopped and pointed her katana at CA, wo appeared to be lying on the ground, unable to move. "Calm down, willya? All of you?" she ordered, voice slightly echoey. "Blood is not tasty. I repeat, not tasty. No blood for you! Especially not PFAs. Shame on you." she spoke like she would to a naughty child, disregarding the danger.
"Blood is not tasty" she repeated, attempting to drive the message home.

"Yeah," said Bettyming, and instead of the cold glare, it was more like heartfelt eye contact, and Cat Assasin's eyes became un-grayed (was that godmoding? ). "Blood tastes like eating a cardboard box soaked in vinegar and bird poo. At least I think it does. Blood also smells like garbage and dog poo and then makes you run around with a purse on your head screaming that it's peanut butter jelly time. Remember the Dancing Banana? Major social faux pas." Then Cat Assasin started to speak...

... and Cat Assasin's eyes became un-grayed (was that godmoding? )... ((Anything that makes other characters move automatically is regarded as godmoding. Your character is free to do whatever she can reasonably do, but the reaction of whoever she is confronting with must still fall on the respective role-player. Also, if you have any more questions, you may go to this thread and ask away. The thread I just linked to is supposed to be an Out of Character discussion where we can talk and ask about what is happening in the RP. Let us keep the uniformity of this thread.)) The fur standing around Cat Assassin's body began to retract, albeit at a very slow pace. The feline's movements started to slow down as well, reducing his constant struggle to break free from his paralysation to a few body swings to remove the discomfort. "Uu urrrgh hh..." he moaned painfully, his wild side still lingering in his presence. "My heeeaa add..."

Poking her head around the tree, the girl could see a group of ninja gathered at the back of an inn. "That's them all right.. But who's that?" She titled her head curiously at the unfamiliar person. Can't be.. the rogue? "She's not attacking them." The cat noted, poking his head out from her hood. "Could be a trap." Jakie nodded, hugging the tree tightly. I'll wait a bit, see what happens.
