Bats start to clear away the boulders and rebuild the destroyed turrets.
Meanwhile, a bounty is placed on Barney Balhoun's head, [smashed] or alive, and Brakket is ranked up to 3ic and officially appointed as the new leader of the Black Overwatch force. (batonmaster500 ) All of these developments are issued by the current (temporary) Bat Tribe leader, Grand Admiral Balthazar.
IC: *Brakket sets about trying to find out who in the land of chima infiltrated the Black Overwatch in his spare time.* (Decade made a post to balthazar about the overwatch taking orders from a mysterious entity before.)
(OOC: You could, or could not be right about that. )

{Spoiler}{JAMMERS! -Barney’s Letter to Bratta, Forgotten-signed- ONLY!} From: Barney Calhoun To: Bratta Lavenderwing (my sweetie!)
Subject: About my recent defection and bulletin on my head.
Message: “Dear Bratta Lavenderwing, my sweet woman. Due to recent events and news coverage on my recent defection, i do advise you that... if you wanna see me safe and sound. Please falsification the reports that i was shot down by Civil Protection escaping Cave 17. Theres a good reason why i changed my last name, and i will soon follow suit that my first name be changed as well.”
“On conditions i can give you, i want you to run away from the kingdom that once held your own mind as a leader. I kept vials of Scrin’s poision ever since that last incident you argued with your brother so i can help your mind a little. But good thing is, your brother is in a gorilla prision, as told by Resistance forces in the Gorillas lands. Hey, we Forgotten are public ally number one right now with the gorillas and I want to prove it to them as being the best field commander, in the soon-be uprising we will wage in Cave 17. We also have taken Scorpius hostage in his chambers.”
“So i advise you, come to Dr. Skleiner’s hidden lab in Cave 17, so i can properly give you assistance... both military-wise and, uh... romantic-wise... heh heh... but anyways, defect, rise against, run away, do anything you can, to stop the Crawler Empire. We Forgotten done so much so far, thanks to Scordon and Spalyx, im sure you dont know them, but you will know them soon enough...”
“Anyways, do you best to dodge Overwatch forces and Civil Protection as well out there... and good luck baby! Your gonna need it!”
-Bratta closed the letter and looked concerned, and felt worried but she didn’t want to disappoint Barney... she rose up slowly and quickly got to work to help her boyfreind’s cuase...-

Suddenly, armed bats jump out of the shadows and surround Bratta in the throne room, their chi blasters pointed at her head. A British voice comes through the cave entrance, followed by organ music. It is Grand Admiral Balthazar, his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze emotionless. Balthazar: "Bratta, sister of King Bliston, I hereby place you under arrest in the name of the Crawler Empire." He steps closer to her as the bat soldiers handcuff Bratta. Balthazar: "You are probably wondering how I figured out you would defect. It is quite simple, really. For a while now I have been piecing together information. Your close relationship with the traitor Barney, the letters he has been sending you, your visits with the therapists, your time in the Asylum, your past interactions with Scrin, your past employment under Scrin, your subtle verbal and physical mannerisms when interacting with your brother, indicating your discomfort with the tribe, your recent odd behavior in regard to the Crawler Empire. And this newest letter... [he picks it up, reads it quickly, and casually rips it in half] ...was the final piece of the puzzle." Balthazar turns to the soldiers: "Take her to the bottom level prison. Actually, no. Take her to the highest level prison we have in this mountain. We can't have her imprisoned anywhere near Aperture, can we?" As the handcuffed Bratta is taken to the prison cave below the throne room (near the peak of the mountain), Balthazar sits on the throne.

(OOC: Well... thats one big “Brick You” to me, aint it? Shoulda dun it a bit more discretely. No matter what, Bratta will be brought to the Forgotten one way or the other, no plot armor you can put up will defy me and my plot. She will help her brother become blessed with fire, and she will be with Barney, no matter what you say or null or block, your plot armor is completely nulled to more serious members of this RP. At least you cannot do worst than outright killing her... right? )

OOC: Seriously? You just ignore Balthazar's big moment, that I'd been planning for literally months? Come on, man. I never said she couldn't rejoin Barney. Can't she just be captured until the end of January, like Bliston?

-Although Bratta was thrown in prision, she still held true to the Letter’s words, constantly reminding herself that Barney needs her help to win (the war will begin once Freeman is in Skliner’s lab) the internal war of The Uprising. She growls and thinks of her brother as oppressive and evil, when she never knew how he was trying his best to integrate and be a little more “freindly” to other tribes by straight-up annexing them-
-Bratta held her head up high, ignoring the chains she is in and still thinks herself as a free man.-
-Until...-
“Ms. Brrrrrraaaaattaaaaa... i do think it would be... time... to get out already... i’ve once took you under my... stinger... and held you as my own... but... your brother... was just acting in my right to hold you as... my own... but i’ve been waiting to... employ you... Your brother acts in the face of... objections... and the fact i have Barney under my control too. But this time... you’ll have more free will... than... last time...”
-then Scrin slowly apperates into the same Cell as Bratta is in-
“That’s why I’m here, Ms. Bratta.... I have recommended your services to my employers, and they have authorized me to offer you a job. They agree with me that you have limitless... potential. You’ve proved yourself a decisive woman, so I don’t expect you’ll have any... trouble... deciding what to do. If you’re interested..., just step into the portal and I will take that as a yes.” -he said, as a very green-glowing ball of electrifying xen portal energy opened up besides him and he gestured to it, the shackles and bondage falling off the bat in response to this-
“Otherwise...well...I can offer you a battle you have no chance of winning. Rather an anticlimax, after what you’ve just survived. Time to choose...”
-Bratta looked worryingly afraid, but wanted to join back with Barney and his others. Then Bratta looked serious snd flutters her wings-
“I-I will choose to... g-go with you...” -she said, before she slowly walked towards the portal, looking dtermined but concerned-
-The Chi-man Scrin smiles and gives her a little push into the glowing ball of xen energy with a nefarious grin, Bratta could be heard screaming before the portal teleported with a loud roar and then a soft crackle, her person someplace else out of the Bat territory-
“Wisely done, Ms. Bratta. -he chuckles- I will see you up ahead. No regrets...”
-Scrin then apparates out of the cell like a ghost, and the xen portal that took Bratta disappeared without a trace...-
