Oxide didn't move as claws opened up his forehead. His body didn't wince or flinch he just watched, feeling the connact. Actions that he couldn't control still went, like the twitch of his bad eye and the muscle across his shoulder. He could feel the warm liquid starting to flow...
His eyes were on the hound that hit him showing nothing but calm. "Yous would kill a possiblity to prove...?" he asked starting to go into another thought when the large green creature spoke. It spoke of a name he'd heard when being refered to. He said he was down the hall... The scorf could feel smoke being blown up under his tail as the crimson started leaking into the bridge of his mask. Bridges...how funny...
The beast's head came closer, and again Oxide didn't move. He'd let this one wear some of his blood. The knock wasn't that bad... After some more words he pulled away, wearing the color that leaked from the hound. Eat him? Just as bad as killing. This one seemed to know how to talk, but they were the same. Skin or scales, the mind was still the same.
The blue and green ignored Scarr, he wouldn't deal with him, yet. Whole colored eyes were back on Jiggsaw. "To prove what? That Jiggsaw will not listen? That to any he will punish for asking? What do yous prove to your followers?" he continued, not moving, "A tyrant will earn no respect, only fear. Fear, anger...it leads to up rise, revolt. The same thing we all have done to get here."
His maned head bowed, eyes to the floor, "However, if my death will prove your point, take it. I know your white bitch will follow yous no matter."
((Yes, I am going to give up OX as a character. Player and character knowledge should remain separate. I feel it is his time to go.))

Looking on the side Faust watched on as Oxide made no move to avoid Jiggsaw's blow to the head. His gaze was filled with that of amazement, he never expected to see someone who, in personality, acted just like his older brother Don. However it was as if both Ox and his sibling where intertwined in that aspect.
His flashy blue on red eyes move to the three eyes, almost horse-like hell beast and frowned. Though the thing had no expression in his eyes as he spoke Faust could tell that he was serious. He would if, aloud by their king, kill the multi-colored hound.
"A tyrant will earn no respect, only fear. Fear, anger...it leads to up rise, revolt. The same thing we all have done to get here."
The lanky male's ear especially tuned in to thous words. They were so true, and so wise. So much like something his other sibling would say, yet so different form Ron just the same. His body began to quiver, not so much with fear but with amazement. As much as he didn't want his friend to challenge such beasts he wanted to look on still.
A small whimper past his lips. He still all the same did not what Oxide to get killed.
For the other was after all like a third older brother.....
((Wow! that was sappy.))

((I'm really surprized, Oxide. Had I known your plans, my previous post would have been completely different. Jigg said that was "mock attack," so I proceeded as such, but if you want to kill Oxide I suppose no one's stopping you. I kinda liked him, though. You should make a new character to replace him, at least))
Oxide's blood dripped down the Swamp Lord's long face, and his grin faded and became something funeral solumn. He realized that the creature had given up.
Raising his chin ceremonially, he stared down at the brightly colored canine and did not move. This was not his prey; it was Jiggsaw's, unless Jiggsaw decided to give it to his Advisor.
Domnopalus was used to being the central power of whomever he wished, and so it was awkward having to submit to a higher power for him. Fear would develop among Domnopalus's subjects, and if whoever he governed uprose against him he would simply decide that it was time to move on to the next crowd. This was quite a relaxed way to get what he wanted as well as variety in his life. Maintaining power was of no importance to him so long as he had power at some point. A tyrant he might have been, but not a tyrant who didn't learn from experience.
But he would give the scorf another chance, whatever liberty it might be taking from Jiggsaw, before letting him condemn himself to death. He spoke in a calm, deep tone. "Now, Mister Scorf, there is no need to shed blood over such a petty thing as a meer insult. We are simply requesting that you know your place among us, as part of the army or not. It is not such a thing as to get eaten over, as delicious as you may look." The last sentence seemed rather out of place in the solumn context. His head remained in the same place as it was when he began his words.
Putting his little consoling comment out there, he left the decision-making to someone other than himself. Bloodthirsty as he may be, he allowed--perhaps enjoyed--his prey to put up a fight and hated to see them give up in front of him without such a chance. The rest was between Oxide and Jiggsaw.

Jiggsaw glared at Oxide as his metal leg gashed across the Green male’s forehead. The mouse-brain hadn’t moved! What kind of beast was he?!
A tyrant will earn no respect, only fear. Fear, anger...it leads to up rise, revolt. The same thing we all have done to get here.
“ Flith…” Murmured Jiggsaw, his rasping voice toned down into a furious whisper. He stood taller, fangs bared at Oxide. He was about to administer his fatal words when the stream-lined body of one, Domnopalus, joined him glaring at the maned male. The advisor was speaking.
Now, Mister Scorf, there is no need to shed blood over such a petty thing as a meer insult. We are simply requesting that you know your place among us, as part of the army or not. It is not such a thing as to get eaten over, as delicious as you may look.
“ No. Domnopalus. This half-dead shit won’t stand another hour, blood loss or exhaustion will get to him. ” He looked about at his army, then back to Oxide. “ The river. He will not struggle. ” He lunged forward, attempting to bite into the flank of Oxide, it was not an eating nor killing blow, merely a bit of extra help that will help lift Oxide’s bleeding and dying form, “ Dom, help me with him will you? This jerk goes in the river where you, just you, may deal with him as you wish. Let him drown. Eat him. Anything. He’d dead on his feet. ”

((He's heavy and I'd becareful of those scales, they are really solid.))
"I have yet to insult!" now his voice was a growl, "I simply ask a question!" The attitude of the large green creature had changed. Perhaps he was just alittle different...no one would know.
His ears went up at Jigg's words and flipped back in defense. "Will not struggle my ass." he muttered. There was some underesimating going on here. The hound lept at the scrof. Ox didn'thave the speed to dodge, but he had some protection and a move. His bad leg gave out and he fell to the side, a lifted back leg kicking out with a large talon...
He hit the ground hard, "How can you all follow a hound who shows less of the torture?!" he bellowed, this would probably be his last words. Words had power. "What do you see when you look upon the great Jiggsaw?! A lost leg! He cares only of his own heart, not the lives of his followers. Not the chance of possibility..."

How can you all follow a hound who shows less of the torture?
Jiggsaw’s face transformed from rage, to humor at Oxide’s words. “Believe me, if I was going to torture you I wouldn’t do it, I’m sure there are many in this clearing who would give their lives to do it, fatass.” She chuckled mirthlessly, his pinkish-red eyes darting to Toxikch, Domnopalus and Scarr. “And I think I should give them the authority to volunteer if they wish, don’t you think?”
What do you see when you look upon the great Jiggsaw?! A lost leg! He cares only of his own heart, not the lives of his followers. Not the chance of possibility...
“This leg is the sign of my power against the humans!” He bellowed, turning to his followers, “ What do you see when you look at this half-dead moron?!” He snarled, “I see a big-headed, overly self-loving, half-dead moron, that’s what I see!” He smirked. “ As for not caring for the lives of my followers… He turned to Domnopalus and began to pace, “Dom, when you entered the jungle in search for alliance and shelter, who gave it to you? I did.” He turned again. “ Scarr, when the other hellhounds bullied you about your build before any of us were leader, who helped you? I did.” Yet again his direction was changed, “ And Toxikch, when you almost fell in Domnopalus’s river, who stopped you drowning?” He turned for the last time, glaring at Oxide’s crippled body, hatred and revolution wiped across his snarling features, “I DID!” He leapt back onto the high-rock, addressing the whole army. “You see, who is the one who is correct? Me, the actually Jiggsaw, or this jerk, who thinks he knows about P4, comes wondering into our meeting, and thinks he will go out alive!?”

Faust bit his lip hearing what his leader had to say, it was true but... "The reason we are all here is it not for you own personal gain." He said softly looking at his leader, a submissive glint held in his eyes. " I-I mean you do speck the truth my king but..At the same time Oxide is right as well. Y-you made this a-army so you could get revenge, so once you do that you will have no use for us..." His voice quivered and his legs where shaking like mad. What he was doing, talking back to their leader, it was treason.
" I'm not denying that you care but how much longer will such things last. Once we kill the humans such generous acts will end. You will have gotten what you wanted and you will no longer need us." He mutter, this time more confidence was held in his replied as he stood on all fours slowly moving to his injured friend.
It was not a act to show betrayal. The hound would never betray his leader, however he would never betray a friend either.

(Well not sure how to reply to all of this through Scarr but I might for Sadae.)
Sadae watched and listened whimpering alittle, her ears flattened against her head in terror. All of this anger and hate both confused and unerved her. She didn't understand everything, but what she did know was that Jiggsaw was her leader and that Oxide was possibly a friend.
She continued to whimper as she looked toward where she smelled everyone. Her tail was tucked between her legs as she slowly moved toward her king. "Don't kill King...he is one of us is he not?" She asked almost pleading, showing as much submission as she could muster up.

((I say that if Oxide is going to die, we set up a formal execution--Dom would carry that out if agreeable. Right now there's too much opposition and frenzied mixed feelings. Once we set up an execution, though people might disagree, it will at least be "for sure"))

((But that would mean there is order. I think Ox should get one more say and Jigg should or Dom, rip his throat out to shut him up.))

((Alright. I'm really hesitant to take such a leap as to kill someone's character. I don't believe I've ever done that before unless it was a formal fight. I believe LockHeart asked for Oxide to have one more say, so I'll allow him to have it, but after that it's the end. Sound good?))

The scorf was on the ground in a pant listening to the rant of the bigger male. He spoke of only three...
The colored male with his scaled hind grinned. Sadae and Faust spoke up, but why not they knew him. How fun were words? They invoked such conflict. Told true and told lies. Words were only the allie of the one that used them...
"Faust, Sadae." he barked unable to look at either, "This world does not need one who thinks of others. The world is too harsh for us all..."
His red-orange orbs were up, "I only ask for you to think Jiggsaw. Titles mean nothing when anger grows. You to lead them, then take them into consideration. A leader must first follow..." Oxide's saber maw took in a breath filling his lungs.
"I, Oxide of the scorf experiments, ask only that you care..." he said eyes closing, his bad eye twitching under the lid. His head raised exposing his maned neck. "One blow..."

Sadae looked to where he was, her ears perked and her paws tightly grasping the ground feeling the vibrations. She whimpered, her head and ears lowering in sadness. To a degree, she knew what was happening and knew she should let it. But, she didn't want to.
"This world does not need one who thinks of others. The world is too harsh for us all..."
"But...we all need eachother." She muttered under her breaathe. She was now struggling against herself to keep control and not do anything harmful to herself and the others, so she just laid down.

{Well, the gathering was meant to be a ranking ceramony, perhaps while Dom is taking care of Ox in the river, Jig could hand out ranks.}

This was it. Domnopalus, who had been frozen for the past minutes, gave a ceremonial final look around, Oxide's blood glistening on his waterproof forehead.
Then he looked directly at Oxide.
With a savage, incredible burst of speed and thrashing, Domnopalus, like a crocodile seizing its prey, seized Oxide and scooped him up in his jaws, pushing him along the ground like a shovel's load. His speed continued, tail and limbs thrashing effectively, as he lunged toward the river with Oxide in his jaws, and with a final, split second flail, the two of them had violently disappeared into the water with a great, snakelike splash, the Swamp Lord's tail flickering last into the depths. The water calmed immediately, and a tinge of blood could be seen in the ripples left over. The whole ordeal took but an instance of time and a whirl of dark green mingling with bright green and orange.
The execution was complete.

Jiggsaw nodded slightly at the words of his members, they were true. “Have no need for you? Perhaps we can make peace, start a pack…” He flinched at his own words. The glanced to Oxide. “You are brave to continue to talk, I’ll honor that, one blow, I swere by the heavens.”
He nodded curtly at Domnopalus. It was over very quickly. Domnopalus shot like a bullet out of the clearing a limp Oxide in his jaws. He turned back, Domnopalus would need be needed for the following speech. “Members of P4. Now that that is over, I must continue with what I was originally calling you all for.”
He looked about, at Scarr, at his subordinates. “The Ranking Ceremony will begin.” The king sat, staring over his assembled army, staring pointedly at Toxikch. “Toxikch, you have been in this army most of your life, you were here from the beginning, and yet you were patient, even though you were kept subordinate.” He raised his voice. “From this day forward, until another rank his demoted or promoted to him, Toxikch will be known as P4’s Left Hand man!”
She glanced over to Sadae. “Sadae, at first I doubted you because of your blindness, I was wrong. Your bravery of your opinion astonished me; I give you the rank…” He paused, to add suspense, staring admiringly at the blind she-hound in front of him. “Patrol Organizer! When we are of little time to check our borders all will turn to you, you will organize, do not think little of your post, for you are the head Patroller!”
He turned his gaze, a lot colder, on the blue male slightly left of Scarr’s post. “ Faust, you have been spotted out of territory and with others, Toxikch has informed me of seeing your with an outside female with no thoughts of joining, we call this trespassers. ” He glared, “ I will not give you the rank Rat, instead, in punishment, I will not rank you. It is time for you to decide where your loyalties lie, remember, you can’t live with a paw in each side. ” The ceremony was over.
