Oh yeh almost forgot about this.
Disclaimer: I do not own Redwall or its characters I just made up a story with them

The sun was shinning brightly, there was a nice cool breeze, birds chirping, and flowers of all sorts in bloom, bees are all hovering around them trying to get pollen and nectar for honey. All of it makes you think of one thing: Spring.

It had been about three seasons since last Mariel, Dandin, and Bowly Pintips had visited Redwall Abbey. It was fun adventuring, but then they thought it would be nice to kick back and take break for awhile. So the trio headed towards Redwall Abbey.

"Of all the good food at Redwall which one do you look forward to the most Bowly?" Asked Dandin, thinking of the food himself

"Oooh, you had to mention food. Of all the things in Redwall why do you have to torture me the thought of food when I'm starving?"

"We'll get there soon enough;" said Dandin almost sounding annoyed, "then you can eat as much as you want. But you still haven't answered my question yet." Mariel stood up in his defense "Hey it's not his fault he's hungry. I'm hungry too and talking about food doesn't make me feel much better either. Now stop arguing! The sooner we get to Redwall the better."

"Ok fine. But I'll tell you what my favorite food is," licking his lips he had a dreamy look in his eyes. "A nice big slice of Woodland Triffle with honey and Meadowcream smothered all over it and a nice cold beaker of good ole October Ale." "Don't forget about strawberry cordial and Deeper 'n Ever Pie." Added Mariel wanting to join the fun, "Oh and what about the always delicious Turnip'n tater'n beetroot pie that the moles always make." Piped up Bowly having forgotten about how hungry he was.

While talking about food they didn't realize that it gave them the urge to go faster and before they knew it Redwall Abbey was in sight. "There it is Redwall Abbey!" Dandin called out

Mariel walked up next to him. "Aye 'tis a wonderful sight for one who's tired and--"

"Hungry!" shouted Bowly finishing her sentence. "If we hurry we'll make it in time for lunch!" he was already running ahead. Mariel and Dandin laughed as they ran to catch up to their friend.

Once at the gate Mariel took out her Gullwhacker and started banging on the gate. "Hello, anybeast home?" Mariel yelled out.

Rufe Brush heard loud thumping at the Main Gate so he went up to the wall ramparts to see what it was, he saw Mariel, Dandin, and Bowly at the front gate and Mariel was banging on the gate door with her Gullwhacker. Dandin looked up and saw Rufe "Hey Rufe, wouldja mind opening the gate for us?" Rufe was so stunned to see them; all he could manage to do was nod.

As he was running down to get to the gate he almost ran in to Abbot Saxtus. "Whoa! Why are you in such a rush young Rufe?" a little tired from running and slightly still in shock he was able to say, "Mariel, (pant) Dandin, and (pant) Bowly (pant) at the gate. (Pant)"

"Mariel, Bowly, and Dandin at the gate!" the Abbot yelled out in surprise. At that moment everyone in ear shot of him heard, and was told from ear to ear about the special guests at the gate.

A/N: So how was it? was it bad? was it good? please tell me what you think! 'cause if it was good enough I might put up the other half.
