Chapter 9
Bone, on the other hand, had different plans. That same evening he revealed them to his commanding officers. Diry though, was making it difficult.
"Right, so lemme try again," said Diry while Bone glared daggers at him, "We're gonna 'ead northwest, while me and da others go northeast. Why we goin' dat way?"
"Now let me say it again, before I scrape whatever brains you have out of your ugly head." growled Bone, causing Diry to take a few steps backward, "I have no doubt that a whole army of Redwall warriors are own their way toward us as we speak..."
"Now why are they doin' dat?"
Bone glared at Diry, who immediately fell silent, and continued, " For those nitwits who have no idea why there are warriors following us, it might be because we kidnapped two of their own and they want to rip us to bits."
"Now why would they do that? Bit violent if you ask me."
Bone threw a dagger at Diry, who just managed dodge it. Bone shoved past him and Krupp, shouting as he went, "Vulpa! You explain it to that miserable excuse for a soldier before I slice him in two!"
Vulpa dragged Diry over to a stump and looked him dead in the eye. "I'm gonna say this once, and if you interrupt me or ask any questions, yore gonna have deal with Furny and Wert. Now I don't think that would be very fun, do you? Sneaking a glance at the huge weasels guarding Armel and Melanda's tent, Diry eyes practically popped out of his head. Vulpa smiled, and continued, "I'm glad we understand each other. When Bone first started tracking those two rats with furry tails..."
"Hey!"
"Shut it Kluker. Anyway, once Bone saw Redwall he's got a whole new idea in his mind."
"'Ow come you know all this?" When Vulpa turned to glare at at him, Kluker spoke in his defense, "You didn't say a thing 'bout me butting in!"
"And now I am so be quiet or I'll gut you!" Turning away from Kluker's shocked face, Vulpa continued, "The reason why I know all this is because I'm one of few Bone can trust. What Bone's been doing is having Furny and Wert talk 'bout how we're goin' northeast. The older squirrel is probably goin' to leave some sort of note sayin' where we're goin'. While they're goin' that way, the ones who'll be layin' the false trail will be waiting to ambush them. Redwall probably sent their best fighters after us, and once their gone, Redwall will be our's for the taking!"
"What about the two squirrels?"
Vulpa smiled, a really terrifying thing if you were the wrong creature. "It's not too hard to kill a pair of defenseless woodlanders."
I am sooo sorry it took me so long to update! I have school and stuff so I don't have a lot of time. Show your forgiveness by reviewing.
