Under the cover of a dark night sky, Warbeak led his Crusaders into the heart of Horde territory. The Fortress loomed, dark and foreboding, over all the landscape; it was a chilling sight. Tucking back his great wings, the General dove from the dark sky and landed before his team, signaling with a wing for them to wait while he continued on alone.

A canine form appeared at the end of the path, flanked by a group of varied birds and beasts, and watched the Staraptor as he drew nearer. This Pokemon was Captain Black, a Houndoom, and one of several under cover Crusaders. "General." Black greeted Warbeak with a deep dow. "Ready your team. We don't have much time."

Lavender waited behind Warbeak. This Fortress place was really very scary. She and Rhyme had talked about going on the mission, but now that Rhyme was caught up, she had to go without her captain.

"I am capitain Moondancer." moondancer said to capitain black, noding her head. She sat and began to meditate, storing her energy to be able to phycicly open locks. She closed her eyes but still could listen to what was going on.

Max the Jolteon was standing there. He was trying his best to be brave. He couldn't believe he had came so far, so far to be here near the fortress. The base of the devious and evil Horde organazation. His fur bristled aganist the cold lifeless ground as he waited for further orders.
