The ranger couldn't believe what his eyes were relaying to him. He missed only by an inch. He could practically see the fur he cut off with the kukri float in the air for a brief moment before gravity took effect. Then the bad situation became worse. He suddenly felt his body shift and with a deafening roar, the ape had thrown him off the hill with incredible force. Only using the momentum of its body twisting and prehensile tail. This beast truly was a monster to behold in regards to strength and dexterity. Oscar was airborne for less than a second and a half but, with his enhanced senses, the scene played out in slow motion. And from the corner of his eye, he saw that he was careening straight for the bladedancer. Reacting to this, he did his best to position himself into a better form to lessen both their injuries from the inevitable impact. It somewhat worked as when he crashed into the bladedancer as, not only did she take the blow, she also managed to catch the ranger in her arms and avoid getting stabbed by the 18-inch long kukri machete still tightly grasped in his hand. It was also then that Oscar discovered that Muu had quite the physique; underneath her clothes was pure and hardened muscle...but also something soft. Oscar already had an idea what that softness was but was too embarrassed to acknowledge it. Oscar simply looked at the bladedancer carrying him bridal style with wide eyes as his cheeks turned a brighter shade of red. [color=orange]"Uhh..."[/color] was all he was able to articulate before his heightened instincts kicked and his head snapped back to look at the ape atop the hill. Its feet frozen in place, but it was still determined to draw blood with a thrown spear. Without thinking, Oscar quickly pivoted his body towards Muu and knocked her down to the snow but making sure that the machete would not injure them in any way by simply letting it go just as he pivoted his body. 

The spear flying through the space they were in a half-second later at such a speed that it whistled in the air before imbedding itself deep into the snowy dirt. Though they managed to avoid getting skewered, they were not able to avoid further unintentional skinship as the ranger laid prone atop her and their faces were a mere two inches away from one another. The ranger's face burned up as he blushed something fierce. [color=orange]"S-sorry."[/color] the ranger stuttered as he scrambled off Muu. The sound of flesh striking against metal was the next thing that caught Oscar's attention. One of the other immobilized apes had managed to land a good hit against their Phalanx, leaving him vulnerable on the ground. Oscar looked around and dashed straight to the spear before pulling it out of the ground with post-haste. If he did not act quick enough, they may be losing their Phalanx in a few moments. Turning to face the unarmed ape, Oscar drew forth the dagger he had taken from the goblins yesterday and in one fluid motion, threw the dagger at full force; straight to where Oscar would guess the liver of the creature to be located. Oscar would surely receive the enmity of the ape, giving Argen a window to escape and recover. All the while doing this, he also tosed the spear over the cart to where Argen generally was. Hoping that in doing so, he had made the Phalanx's task of re-obtaining his spear faster and easier.
