Cantor the squirrel smiled slightly to herself as she walked along the dusty dirt path, twanging her bowstring. Her tough features were bold and craggy, her eyes a sparkling obsidian black. Cantor's companions, Pervian and Kanki, were humming a tune together. The latter a hare and the former a mouse, Kanki was a cheery, comical type, her long ears often sticking up straight like flagpoles. Pervian had gentler features than both of his friends, and had soft green eyes. Cantor joined in the merry chorus.
"Walkin' along one bright summer day,
O raydo raydo rayday!
I was met by a pretty one on the way.
O raydo raydo raydee!
The grass was green, the sky was blue,
The mouse was happy, the squirrel too,
O raydo raydo raydoo!"
Suddenly, they stopped singing. Kanki's long ears perked up even further, detecting a sound close by. A snarling noise echoed from the surrounding foilage, and a dark brown stoat slid out from a gap in the hedges. Growling vicously, he launched himself at the travellers. Right at that moment, a bright white light flashed in their eyes, and they were gone.

In the school computer lab, Jennifer Hartley stood over her friend, Ronald Diver as he tapped on the computer. "Look! A Redwall RPG site! I'll sign up as Dragan, as usual."
"Cool. Sign me up as Curata, Ron." Jennifer pointed at the 'Join' link on the website. Ron nodded and clicked. He quickly typed in his name, species (badger), gender and weapons.
A loud bang was heard, and the school bully, Max, with his sidekick, Eddie, burst into the computer room. They sneered and advanced toward the pair. "Playin' again, computer geeks? Well, I'll give you something to think about!"
Ready to swing his fist, Max stepped forward. Ron tapped on the Submit button just as Max aimed a punch at his nose. Jennifer yelled loudly to divert the bully's attention, but a white light flooded the room, and all four vanished.
