((I sincerely apologize, I forgot about offering to temp Tumble and holding everything up.))
Tumble was glad that Teazer jumped onto the rouse so easily, and continued to make the strained and painful noises. The bit of choking noises may have been from amusement at Teazer's hysterical acting, but he thought they blended well enough into the other pained noises he was making to be undetected as more than painful attempts (and minor) failings at getting enough air while being injured. He absently wondered if he could manage fake tears of pain. As long as they were convincing and loud enough to draw the attention they wanted.

slowly the front door opened and a pasty face peered out scowling. then a tall thin human stepped out carrying a plastic bucket. he stalked out onto the rickety porch of the old house drew back and threw a bucket full of water at Tumble and Teazer!
MEANWHILE OUT BACK..... Grumbuskin moved through the tall grass like a ghost closing on the house's rear wall. he pointed at at discolored section and began to pry at a loose clapboard to create a cat sized opening.

((Now it begs the question of what to do with Teazer. As Ellie hasn't been on in a while.))
Munkustrap was following closing beside Grumbuskin. He watched as Grum attempted to loosen the clapboard. Munkustrap took another look around, to make sure their position wouldn't be seen or overrun, and then got around to the other side. He used his strength combined with Grum's to wedge it open. It didn't take long, and instead of arguing who'd go through first, time was short for those captive queens, Munkustrap slipped in first. Quick and silent. He trusted Grumbuskin enough to follow and knew he didn't have to stop and give orders to him either. He was more experienced then he was. The silver tabby did cock his head to the side, before resolving to head left.

[Briefly temping]
Teazer was mewling loudly, getting completely into character. The sobbing hysterically queen, over her injured and probably...nah why sugarcoat it? Go all the way! DYING mate. "Ohhh Moi lovah!" She grabbed ahold of Tumble's head, non too gently as she cradled him onto her lap. She was so in to her role that she had the start of tears forming in her eyes. "E's dyin'!" ..."Act loike yer dyin'." She whispered, though why she bothered to whisper, Teazer wasn't sure. They had gotten the attention of the humans, as she could her them stomping around in their monkey way, inside the house. But soon, her wailing, and Tumble's cries of pain, had gotten two of the humans out into the open. They thundered down the steps of the porch and came closer to where they were.
One of the humans looked to the other human. "Looks like we've got two more to skin." With eyes lit up and beaming, the human had lunged forward to pick up the hurt one, while the other went to scoop up Teazer.
Well they had gotten their attention, that was their goal, and they had to keep their attention, but Munkustrap never said anything about getting skinned or getting captured. She was sure he told her not to do that. "Well...not 'xactly the way Oi planned it....Run!" Teazer yelled to Tumble, and then scratched at the hands reaching down to scoop her up. As she ran, she saw the humans chasing after her. Teazer definitely had mixed feelings about the turn of events.
[Exit Teazer]
[[*Alonzo is standing guard outside the building. He'll be brought back in and temped briefly during their escape.*]]

Tumble had begun a strangled and vaguely gargling sound trying to emulate that wet and rattling breaking of some cat close to dying. And it took nearly everything in him not to break their characters at Teazer's wailing. Because they were going for gold with this performance that was for sure! The Tom shortened and strained his breaths near ready to enact a dramatic death scene when the human showed up all ready and worked up ..... To ... Skin them? That didn't sound like part of the plan! Not theirs anyway. So he jumped up, hissing instinctively at the threat before running with Teazer, making sure he knew where both humans were and keeping an eye out for ways to slow them down or for him and Teazer to get an advantage.
[[Exit Tumble]]

Since they split up to get inside it was easier to get around, scatter, and if needed, distract or hinder humans. Chromie and CP went one way, the rest, well, Chromie couldn't really remember. Once inside the building he got to remembering exactly where everything was. He knew a few pitfalls were around, typical human junk just stacked haphazardly for a barn most of the time.
Thankfully they did not run into any humans, yet.
Poking an eye around a corner he spotted a single lone human, And the room the guy was in.... Welllllll this was gonna not work as well... oh wait. The silver toms eyes spied a power cable, and cable meter.....
"I wonder if this is important for anything ?" Chromie scampered up onto the box and cleanly slit the protective covering off the eletrical wire. "Hmmm... no salt or pepper, guess I'll have to eat this thing plain..." And he did just that. He took a bite out of the powerline to the whole complex. Causing the lights to spazz off and back on for about a minute before briefly browning out before dying completely.
CP just put a paw to her temple and rubbed. Trust her mate to find the power supply to the complex and not their desired prize. But when the lights fizzed out after going stoplight for a few seconds she smirked, Trust her mate to not only find the power supply and knock out power to the coplex. CP sighed, combing her mates fur out of this mess was going to be a bit bothersome

when the lights flickered out simian howls of dismay and annoyance rang throughout the old house. the din was cut by a louder voice "SHUT IT!! Colin go down in the cellar and kick the ruddy generator, the sodding things likely gone wonky again! Geoff, Willy check outside and see if we've got Fuzz ey? the rest of you grab some torches and keep at it, if we don't make schedule Her Ladyship's gonna have US skinned and THAT'S a FACT!"
Grunbuskin flowed through the opening and into a cluttered store room like a shadow, when Munkustrap went left Grum peeled right. past stacked boxes he went, ignoring as best he could the dirty copper smell of old blood, how the humans stood it he had no idea. the gray tom paused at a door that was ajar and listened.

Munkustrap's eyes did constantly drift back to Grumbuskin. He had the toms back, and he was going to follow through with his duty. Just as he expected Grum to have his back as well. The lights promptly flickered and then shut off, and he smirked to himself. Either CP was a genius mastermind....orrr (and this was more likely) Chromie found another cable to sink his fangs into. Either way, they had the advantage, and he was glad his cousin and mate were on this op with him. With the humans plunged into darkness, and stomping around, he hoped they'd find the trapped queens with more ease and make a hasty getaway. "Any sign of them, Grum?" He whispered over to the other tom. However, hearing one of the humans clamoring over to the storeroom they were in, Munkustrap quickly dove behind some boxes.
((Not the best, sorry.))
