Hearing the sounds of a scuffle, the young toad officer spins around, wide-eyed, even as the bodies of his two Stormtoads are hitting the ground. He scowls in fury and sends four more Stormtoads rushing the building, yelling, "Destroy those rot-gutted rabbits!"

Having given the masers to some of the healthier hares Sharr heads back towards the entrance. She hears the four toads enter the building.
"Four is trickier, but I think I can handle it."
She considers her options for a moment, then hits on one that amuses her. She takes a deep breath.
"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhuuuuuoooogggggggaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

In mid-charge, the Stormtoads skid to a halt and scream in terror. "BERSERKER BABBOON!!!" they yell in unison, then turn and flee. Two of them smack into each other and knock themselves out cold.
The other two rush past the flabbergasted toad officer, causing a mass panic among the rest of the toads, who flee in all directions, most of them charging over the officer as he tries to stop them, leaving him sprawled on the ground and comically twitching like a smushed insect.
"Ow..."
Shortly, the only toads in the general vicinity are the dead and unconscious ones, who aren't a threat to anyone. The rounded-up hares, still chained together, cheer and celebrate.

After taking a moment to get her breath back, Sharr walks out into the street to be met by applause.
"I am greatful for your apreciation, but I have not solved the problem. The toads still occupy your world and they will be back here."
She walks over to one of the fallen stormtoads and presses a button on his belt. The chains fall away from the prisoners.
"Take what weapons you can find then come and help me. We have may wounded over here."

* Wild scrambles out of building *
"That was amazing Sharr! But unfortunately the Toads will be back soon now that they are aware of our position", He sweeps his gaze over the free mammals, "It seems our little community is growing! Maybe it would be a good idea to find a more defensible area to hole up".
Wild shoots a writhing stormtoad and notices something among the fallen, "Hey Sharr, come here, I've found a Toad officer and he's still alive!".

Seeing the way that the hares and rabbits around her look at the fallen officer, Sharr says
"I will look after him."
He is bruised from where he tried to stop his soldiers from routing and was trampled for his trouble, but does not seem to be seriously injured. She picks him up under one arm.
"The rest of you - we need a way to carry the wounded. Load as many as you can on to the toads transporter, then make stretchers for the rest. I want us to leave here as soon as possible."

"Ohhhh, my head..." the officer grumbles, coming around. Suddenly, apparently not realizing fully where he is yet, he shouts, "Wait! Halt! ABout face, you fools! You-- Huh? Wh--where am I?"

Sharr looks down at him.
"I suggest keeping your voice down, toad. You are not among friends here."

* Wild kneels down next to the officer *
"Don't worry Toady you're about to do your part for the UAC...", he looks to Sharr, "I suppose Toads do actually value the lives of their officers? It might be good to have some something to bargain with if we get cornered...".

Sharr looks at Wild sharply.
"All life has value, his included. It's not like he presents a threat."

"I didn't mean it like that Sharr. I prefer at all costs to honour the Genus conventions POW policies... I was referring to his value amongst the Toads. Would we be able to hold him hostage do you think?", says Wild.

"I don't know, though I don't think I'd ever want to be in a situation where I had to rely on it. Are we ready to move yet? I don't want to be here longer than necessary."

* Wild stands and starts to move toward the building they'd previously hid in *
"Okay. I'll help move the wounded", he jogs back into the building to organise the move.
Several minutes later he emerges cradling a wounded mammal and several other mammals appear behind him also helping others.
"I think we're ready to go Sharr... We should go soon though, I don't think many of these guys will survive the move if we loiter too long".

The officer, Lt. Hacker, crosses his arms indignantly. "Hmmph!"

* Wild looks at the Toad officer *
"A word of warning Toady... Don't give Sharr there any trouble! Have you ever seen a Toad get it's limbs plucked off one bye one like an insect? Well do you wanna? I thought not... stay in line and you'll stay fully attached".
