*Raven flaps wings and stirs up dust* "We have work to do. I think we should begin negotiations immediately."
I apologize, I didn't mean to interfere with your negotiations. BTW, An alliance with the wolves is a good idea. I'd hate to be on the opposite side of THAT cannon.
OOC: Are you a wolf?
We would like these negotiations to begin. As you know, time is a resource which cannot be wasted.

The officer looks puzzled for a moment, then regains his serious posture.
"Why, yes, Chi deliveries. It's, you know, our stuff, the Lions."
He fumbles through his pockets for a while and takes out a certificate, and shows it to you. Everything seems correct.
"See? There's even the royal seal, here. ", says the officer as he points to an intricate red mark at the bottom of the document.
Sticks nose through the gate and sniffs. Pulls nose out and glares at the lion. "I smell deception."
The Lion gives you a blank stare. He then leaves his disciplined and professional stance to go on a rant.
"Now, look here, young chap!! We are spending the fuel, resources, and manpower to get these crates here half a blasted month early because the Ravens started asking, and you deny us entry?? Goodness gracious, man! We are the Royal Lion Army, for the sake of the world! And we can and have proved! Look at our uniforms, we have the training, the gear, and the permit! Do you have an idea of how much detail the royal seal has to prevent counterfeits, and the work that the poor souls at the Court took to make it? You deny an official document because your smell tells you something is odd? What, is it because the paper smells of a Fox or Raven? You know, we employ other tribes!"
He sighs and his voice takes a more desperate tone.
"You're going to want solid evidence, eh? Just keep in mind that you are going to be dragging the crate we took out inside."
He yells some orders at the recruits behind him, and a ramp drops behind one of the tanks. A pair of soldiers goes inside and takes out a wooden crate to lay at the feet of the door, then open it. Inside are the distinctive blue orbs of Chi.

Ven snarls at the lion, but gets knocked over by another fox. "Ooooooh, merchandise!"

Ven snarls at the lion, but gets knocked over by another fox. "Ooooooh, merchandise!"
"Merchandise? MERCHANDISE? This, my friend, is a power source! You could have tank the size of a house running on one of these spheres, and if somebody has one more than the other people, the environment gets madder than a madman in an asylum, and starts throwing tantrums because of a curse that was set upon us thousands of years ago because we, the Lions, did stupid things. You SHALL NOT trade for it!"
*caws* "Since the Wolves are too.....busy for negotiations, I shall briefly take leave to the Speedor Event at Lions HQ. Any wolves who also desire to attend can come." *flaps wings*

Dev roles his eyes. "Yeah, whatever. How much you want for it?" Dev gets shoved aside by Ven. "Shut it, you haggler." "Hey! Watch the suit!" Dev tackles Ven, and consequently gets put into a custom full-body hold that completely immobilizes him. Swift stands on her toes to see out the peep-hole. "Oooh, shiny!" Her eyes widen at the sight of the Chi. "UNCLE! UNCLE!!!" Ven releases Dev, and Swift dashes out of the way. Ven looks out the hole again. "Listen, I still don't trust you, but our employer isn't here right now, so I'm not sure what to do here. How about you leave the Chi outside, and we'll post a guard until we fire out what to do with it?"

OOC: Sorry for my absence...seems like the negotiations are still on hold...rip xD
*Shard dashes over to the gate near the other foxes, clearly unamused.* "That is how you see it fit to address ambassadors of another tribe? Know your place!" *To the delivery lion, she opens the gate more, and steps through it.* "I apologize in the stead of my ignorant tribesmen. I can take the shipment from here. Thank you, lion."
*caws* "Since the Wolves are too.....busy for negotiations, I shall briefly take leave to the Speedor Event at Lions HQ. Any wolves who also desire to attend can come." *flaps wings*
The raven NPC seems confused but follows Raida.
*A Wolf NPC stumbles after them, about to say something about the leader's ability to be easily distracted. She gives a small growls and decides to wait for their returns.*

Ven steps back, very annoyed. "I know my place quite well, you little..." "Ven, would you kindly put a sock in it." Sneak says. "She's just doing her job." "Well, pardon me if I don't want our new home to get invaded!" Ven growls. He grumbles a bit, then walks over to their copter. He begins tugging at it, pulling it out of it's crater. Dev stands up and brushes the dust off his suit. "Jerk." "I HEARD THAT!" Swift runs over to Shard and watches silently as she speaks to the lions. "I really am sorry about him." Sneak says to Shard. "He hardly trusts anyone, especially lions." "THAT LION JUMPED ME WHEN NO ONE WAS LOOKING!" "FOR THE LAST TIME, THE WIND BLEW A SCARECROW ONTO YOU!" "THAT'S WHAT HE WANTED YOU TO THINK!!!" Sneak rolls her eyes. She turns back to Subtle. "How are you feeling?" "Like the steering wheel is inside my pancreas." Subtle groans.

*Shard ignores Ven and Dev, and gives Sneak a nod in acknowledgement. The Chi is taken away by several Wolf NPCs, and she watches it's departure before turning her attention back to the foxes.* "Now, you have my undivided attention. Ven...was it? You can either finish your thought, or the lot of you can explain yourselves and your uncouth appearance in my tribe." *Her eyes stay on Sneak, deciding for time being that she seems to be the most reasonable of the group.*
