Re: Rufus: Super Coward

Who: Joe Craggins, everyone prevouisly mentioned
Where: New Russia
When: After gunfight
"You missed you moron!" Joe yelled at Rufus, angry that he was
wasting
bullets. Rufus smirked and laughed as smoke began to come from the
hinge. It began to fizz and hiss as the GUNK ate through the metal
and
dissolved the door hinge. It creaked in the way only dying metal can
and fell to the floor, exposing the bounty hunters.
Joe had to admit, it was a good move. Whatever that liquid was, it
was effective! He congratulated Rufus then openened the other jeeps
car door. Inside were jay and the others, all bound and gagged, but
perfectly unharmed. Joe untied them and removed their gags.
Meanwhile Yuris highly toned senses smelled Ocelot nearby. He looked
over he edge of the cliff and there they were, right below him. What
a stroke of luck! Without saying a word, he went back to their jeep,
got a tranquilizer and a pair of toenail clippers. He stealthly,
without making a sound, slid down the rope behind one and fired,
knocking it unconcius straight away. The other ocelot ran off with
fright but that didn't matter. Yuri walked up to the unconcius
Ocelot and snipped off its toenails. He climbed back up. "Ok, we got
the Ocelot toenails!!" he yelled triaumphently and held them up for
everyone to see. Everyone whooped and congratlated him. They all
climbed back into their jeeps, after jay and the others walked back
to theirs and a quick replacement by Yuri and his ever resourcefull
emergency kit with its spare radio and they were off again, driving
along to the Siberien mountains for a siberian hamster. After a
couple of hours drive they finally got to they highest they could go
by veicle. Yuri told everyone "Ok, you need to put your climbing
boots on now, were going by foot from here and itll be a hard climb!"
