~Flashback~
Attack on Noonvale
Chapter 4
A line of weary oar slaves trudged back to the holding cell, well, all but one. A young mousemaid suddenly perked up and started looking around her with sharp eyes.
One of the crewmembers whispered to his mate, "Is she going to try it AGAIN," who whispered back, ''Most likely. She so stupid! You'd think she'd know by now that she just can't escape from the ship." The first agreed.
In fact, that was what Rose was thinking of doing. She had heard one of the corsairs saying that in three days they would be landing at the place where they got 'de slaves.' She recognized what they meant. Noonvale. 'That would be the perfect place to escape,' she thought with grim satisfaction. 'Right where they got me.'
Thinking of Noonvale got her mind working. What had happened to Lily? She stood straight upright with a gasp. Luckily, the door to the cell slammed shut at the exact same moment, so she was saved from embarrassment. 'Not like you could get much teasing out of this lot,' she noted unhappily. 'We're so depressed. Not like it would be easy to not be,' she reminded herself as she sat down with a thump. Everybeast looked at her, and she smiled lamely back at them. They turned away from her.
'Now, approach the thought slowly,' she thought to herself. 'Lets see, now, where were we?' (Rose is mental! Hee hee. Sorry. She's just so surprised by the thought that she's talking to herself.) 'Oh, yes…' Lily. Rose was consumed by a memory.
~Flashback~
"Lily!" She was frantic. Lily was nowhere to be found in the large crowd of screaming creatures. What if she was caught!
"Rose! Auntie Rose!'' There was a small tugging at her hand. Rose looked down.
"Lily! There you are! I was so worried! Look, you have to get out of here, quickly!"
Lily's face was a picture of innocence. She still hadn't realized what was going on yet. ''Why, Auntie Rosey, why?''
"Here, Lily, take this!'' Rose shoved a pack of provisions at Lily and proceeded to help her into it.
''Why?'' Lily looked up at her aunt in confusion. What was going on?
"Lily, listen carefully. You have to go to Redwall Abbey. You have to get—" her voice dropped significantly and she looked about her to make sure nobeast was listening, "—you have to get their champion. I think – I think I know who it is. I think I know him. Here,'' Rose placed something in Lily's palm, "take this. Look for a mouse like the one in the picture. If he doesn't help you right away, although he probably will, show him the picture and ask him again. Promise me," Lily nodded her head. "No, Lily. Promise me!" Rose repeated fiercely.
"I promise. I'll find him!"
"Go, then, Lily, go!" Rose gave her a push. 'Seasons speed!' she added silently, and all went black.
~End Flashback~
Rose shivered, remembering that fateful day. 'Is Lily okay?' she wondered silently. 'Has she found … Him? No,' she admonished herself, 'you have to say his name. Besides, don't count your chickens before they hatch. Okay, one … two … three…' she took a deep breath. 'Martin.'
That over, Rose began to plan her escape.
