Chapter 2: Unexpected Visitor

June 4, 6:00pm

The fox knew it was there, he knew what he was looking for was in Redwall, and he'd just have to go in and get it. He made his way to the gate, and knocked on it. Soon a young field mouse peered over the top of the battlements, the mouse called out "Who are you, and what do you want!?" The mouse called out. "My name is not important, but what I want is simple." The fox answered. "Then what is it you want then?" The mouse asked. "Let me in, and I will tell you." The fox said. "I'm sorry, but I can't let you in!" The mouse called back. "I'll just let my self in then." The fox answered. Before the young mouse could say a thing, the fox pulled back his fist and punched the door. The fox's punch ripped the door to pieces. He walked inside the abbey; some of the abbey dwellers that knew how to fight tried to rush him. He used his bare paws to kill them by punching through them, using his paw. The other warriors just stood back were amazed at his incredible feet's of strength. The fox made his way to the gatehouse, which was the home of the abbey record keeper the gatehouse, also had hundreds of book's and the old abbey records. The fox walked into the gatehouse, as he entered he noticed an old looking mouse was in the room which he presumed was the abbey recorder. The fox quickly ran up to him and before the mouse could even squeak the fox grabbed him with one paw and lifted the mouse up off his footpaws. As he held the mouse up, the fox said: "Where is it." The mouse managed to croak out: "Where's...what?" "The book...I came for the book." The fox answered. The mouse asked: "Wha...what book?" The fox answered: "The Book of Beelzebub." The fox threw the mouse to the ground and picked up a heavy desk with ease, he lifted it up above his head and slammed it down on the old mouse splattering blood and bits of flesh everywhere. The fox looked around the room, searching for the book. He saw the book on a high shelf that he couldn't reach, so he grabbed the side of the bookcase and ripped it out of the wall and let the bookcase fall to the ground. He flipped the bookcase over and reached down and picked up what he had come for: the book of Beelzebub. He walked out of the gatehouse, as he was walking out he noticed that all of the abbey dwellers stared at him with a look of shock and fear. The abbey beasts were too afraid to move and try to stop him. The mysterious fox was about to leave, but the Abbey champion decided to try to stop him. The Abbey champion ran towards him with the sword of Martin raised high above his head. As he was about to bring the sword down on the fox's turned back, the fox suddenly whirled around and grabbed Martin's sword from the Abbey champion. Using both paws the fox broke the ancient sword of Martin like a twig. The Abbey dwellers let out a surprised gasp at seeing the supposedly un-breakable sword snapped in two like a twig. The fox then grabbed the Abbey champion by the neck using one paw and snapped it, and then let the body drop to the ground.

The fox then went inside to the Great Hall with the shocked Redwallers following him. The fox walked up to the ancient Abbey tapestry of Martin the warrior. "So this is the tapestry of the great Martin the warrior," the fox said with great contempt. After staring at the tapestry for a few minutes he grabbed the end of the tapestry and yanked it off the wall. The fox held up the tapestry so that all of the Redwallers could see it. He then grabbed a lit torch from off the wall and held it up to the tapestry, seating it on fire. The fox then threw the tapestry to the ground; he then spit on the burning tapestry.

The fox then went on and killed every single Redwaller; he killed every single man, woman and child. He then went to the door to the cellar of the Abbey, where all of the wine, beer and drinks of the Abbey. He opened the cellar door and threw the still lit torch down into the cellar, knowing that the torch and hundreds of barrels of alcohol would cause a large explosion and then closed the door. The fox calmly walked out of the Great Hall, despite the fact that a large explosion would be happening very soon. He walked across the front lawn to the front gate. The explosion happened just as he was walking through the archway of the front gate. The explosion blew the main building of the Abbey to pieces, and sending the Abbey Bell tower crashing to the ground, and smashing the walls around the Abbey to pieces and sending the stone blocks the Abbey was made of flying through the air. The fox continued to walk through the archway, despite the fact of the explosion. He continued walking down the path that led through Mossflower woods, while the huge roaring fire from the explosion spread from what was left of the Abbey to the forest of Mossflower. He kept walking down the path to his next destination as the fire spread throughout the woods, soon the entire forest of Mossflower would be burnt to a crisp.
