Skant: *Snicker* Yeah.'thrilling'
Shuddup, Skant.
Anywho, thanx to Vane, Acoustical Ferret, Trinity/Maddy and Dragonfire/Flamey for reviewing!
Also, Vane, you have pointed out my worst trait. I know I switch from present to past tense and I am being more careful. But, don't worry; once I get all of my fic up I will fix all the problems that anyone points out to me.
Skant: Also, Bloodfur. I think tha' yore supposed ta do a disclaimer thingee.
Errr, yeah. Sure. I'll be right back with that. *runs outside, soon after, the sound of a starting car is heard and there is a screech of wheels*
Skant: Riiight, okay, I'll do it. Bloodfur don't own the idea of Redwall, Brian Jacques does. She owns just about all the characters an' most of the places featured in th' story.

Enemies Forever Chapter 5:
Castle Streamswift
Maky lifted her head, enjoying the cool sea breeze. The sailing in these waters was excellent, and what's more. Skant said that they would be at their destination soon. She was seated in the crows nest, having insisted on being lookout. She strained her eyes and faintly saw a tiny lump on a cliff in the distance. She breathed in hard and roared at the top of her lungs,
"LAND HOOOO!" Rantan, who was at the tiller because Raptail was still planning their attack roared back up at her.
"What are ye talkin' about Maky? We've been huggin' th' coast ever since we left. You've been able to see land for the whole voyage!" He grinned up at Maky, who just smiled sheepishly down at him.
"Ok then," she breathed in again, "CASTLE HOOOO!" She panted for breath, poking her tongue out at the now laughing Rantan. "Wot's so funny Rantan? I'm a better lookout than you!"
Rantan chuckled and was about to make a swift comeback to the witty youngster when Skant exited her cabin. She stood at the prow of the ship and looked to the tiny headland.
"Aye, there she is alright Maky. Castle Streamswift. Rantan!?" The ferret looked over to her.
"Cap'n?" Skant didn't look at him but told him her orders.
"Once we're a good hours march from that place. Find a spot to land. Then take a score o' beasts wi' ye an' scout th' area. Me an' Rappy think we 'ave a plan. But it depends on the layout o' th' land." She turned to see Rantan nod and growled under her breath. "We're gonna destroy that place."
* * * * *
High above the sea on a cliff lies the crumbling ruin known as Castle Streamswift. It was once a fine place, everybeast wanted to live there. But, years of harsh weather and constant attacks by corsairs and sea vermin has left the Castle broken beyond repair and with few inhabitants.
Lady Crestwave stood on the wall of her castle, surveying the land. A sigh escaped her lips, the once great Crestwave kingdom is now nothing. The only reason that she stayed was for the benefit of those living there. Her emerald eyes casually turned out along the northern coast, she gasped, could that be another one? She rubbed her eyes, hoping it to be an illusion. But when she looked again, it is still there.
"Oh, no!" She groaned as she watched the corsair ship land. She swiftly leapt down the wall steps and ran to the barracks. Once there, she looked around. "Mateys, we have a problem!" The two score beasts in the barracks, all of the castles soldiers, swiftly picked up their weapons and faced her. A tall, black otter saluted her with his javelin,
"corsairs again, Milady?" He asked, Crestwave nodded,
"Aye, Nexent. Seems that they've taken a liking to us." She chuckled humorlessly. "Don't worry, we'll send them away wi' a few bodies to bury eh?"
She smiled slightly as the soldiers cheer, Nexent slid over until he was standing next to her, "'twas a fine speech, Milady. But I don't think we're gonna get through this un. We're too weak."
Lady Creastwave nodded sadly and turned to face him, "Aye, neither do I. But at least we'll get a few of 'em." She turned back to the soldiers, mostly otters. But with some squirrels and a few mice. "Now listen up! More than likely, there gonna send a scoutin' party out first! I want 'em wiped out so they can't git any news back! Ten o' ye can go an' do that!"
As the soldiers ran out to do her bidding, she sighed and walked out of the barracks, back to the walltop. Resting her javelin against the crumbling stone, she twirled her sling idly and watched.
* * * * *
Skant stood on the beach, watching her crew gear themselves up for battle. Rantan walked in front of her, his bow and arrows strapped on his back and a long dagger thrust through his belt.
"Should I start goin' Cap'n?" He asked. Skant nodded.
"Aye. Take ten o' our trackers. An' ten fighters ta protect 'em. Make sure tha-"
"Skanny, Skanny! I wanna go wid th' trackers!" Maky raced up and jumped on Skant, almost bowling her over. Skant was about to say 'no' straight off but looked at Rantan,
"We really won't be in any danger Cap'n. An' besides, she does need to git out an' toughen 'erself up." Skant nodded at Rantan.
"Alright, I suppose."
"YAAYY! I getta go on a scoutin' trip!" Maky danced off to annoy the trackers and inform them that she was going. Skant just looked at Rantan and before she could say anything, he held up a paw.
"I know Skant. Don't let 'er out o' me sight an' make sure she don't git 'urt. I know, I know. You jus' stay 'ere an' plan our attack wid Rappy. We'll be fine. I promise." He walked off and roared commands at the beasts that were going with him. Who all quickly stood up and began to follow him. Within half a minute, all trace of the scouting party, sight or sound. Was gone.
Skant watched them go, she sighed slightly and walked over to a small tent. Where she was to rest before the fighting began.
