Okay peeps. This is my first fic so go easy. Please R & R! I do not own Redwall or any of the characters included in the book. This fic is meant to be an alternate future happening after Redwall where some of the warriors including Deyna, Arven, Mariel, Dandin and Finnbar Galedeep, have been flung into the past or the future for a reason stated later in the fic. _________________-----------------------------------__________________ (Man this border sucks.)

It was a rainy cold night and all manner of life had tucked itself away to sleep. Like a dark looming sentry, Redwall stood sleeping peacefullywaiting for the light of dawn to greet them. However, some beasts chose not to sleep and stole across the grounds. Through the orchard and around the pond, Matthias, Mariel, Dandin, Arven, Deyna and Finnbar strode. They wrapped themselves in cloaks to keep out the saturation. "Grrr.This cold is really getting' on my nerves, mates." Deyna growled annoyedly. Matthias didn't answer. His mind was stuck on something else. Darn, I feel like a monster! Oh, well... It's better than telling her what's really going on. "Something wrong, Matthias?" Mariel asked. She had noticed the warrior's troubled features. He didn't answer. "Just leave him be, Mariel. He's got a lot on his mind that he needs to wrangle himself." Dandin whispered flatly.They reached the small gate on the west side of the abbey and pushed through it. There was a cart waiting for them with an otter sitting at the front. Two sable horses snorted restlessly shaking water from their manes.When the group reached the cart the otter called out to them. "Do you really want to do this, mates?" "Yes" Matthias answered emotionlessly. "Then git yourselves into the cart afore ye catch your death out ere!" His eyes were hooded by an overhanging board sheilding him from the rain. Lightning flashed and thunder crackled as they crowded into the large cart. "Hyah!" The otter cried as he lashed the reins encouraging the horses to move and they galloped off toward the ocean. As the cart bumped over the muddy road Matthias leaned out of the window and looked at the peaceful sanctuary. I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..Cornflower.

So what do you think? Heart wrenching, huh? So anyways please R&R! We have quotas to meet... No really please!
