Chapter 3

Rodney was continuing on his way. Suddenly he heard three voices.

"Idjit! Cook it pro'erly."

"Its a fish. You want it done right or fast?"

"Now chief, don't 'urt us."

Rodney brought out a sword. He would try killing every vermin he met. Coming to shore, he sneaked up behind one vermin, who had a spear. He ran him through, took the spear and threw it at another. The third turned, but was hit with the sword. Picking up Sword and spear, Rodney said, "Lousy varmints."

He pulled his boat out, and continued for Redwall.

One by one, the elders came into the infirmay. Abbot Morty refused to speak until he had all the elders and Allayne in.

Once they were assembled, Morty began. "Friends, Allayne told me something today. At first, I didn't believe her, but since I've had a few destubing experiences that confirm the whole thing. Allayne, I'm sorry, they need to know."

Allayne sighed, and said, "Very well. I did not tell anybeast this before, but I have a gift, or some may say, a curse. I am a seer." There was a gasp from the elders. "I've been having visions lately, but they've all been the same. The abbot is found dead a week from now, and two days later I'm the last survivor, runnnig from the assasin. I fall, I see it, and I know it. I wakeup screaming, and can't remember who it was."

The elders sat there, and the abbot took it up from there. "At first, I didn't believe you, but then there was a voice in my room. Cornelius here, heard it as well. Me and Cornelius went down to lunch, and were somehow transported in time. There was another voice. It told me it is my fault all this is happening. Then, I was in my room, and I witnessed my death first hand. Then I was here, and I saw a destroyed Redwall. Thats when I awoke. I tell you, Redwall is in its gravest danger ever."

One elder spoke up. "What shall we do?"

The voice answered, sending chills through everybeasts spines. "Nothing... You will all die..."

Suddenly Allayne shook, screamed, and yelled, "No! Somebeast! Help!" She fell to the floor, twitched, and got back up, looking dead. Her face was in an evil grin. "You will all die for what you have done!" Her voice was the same as the bodiles voice. She picked up a knife. Sh advanced towards the abbot. Then Cornelius awoke, and saw the situation. He moved and jumped on her. He fell over with a wound, and Allayne's face suddenly was its old self, except for pain from a broken arm. She shuddered, looking at Cornelius, and said, "Tell me that didn't just happen." and then fainted. There was now no doubt in the room about what would happen.

"What is she doing here?" Cornelius's voice showed hatered as he came awake next to Allayne.

"Clarence calm down. She didn't have a choice. She was-"

"No choice! Nobeast was threatening her!"

"Cornelius! Listen! She was-"

"Something's wrong with you today abbot you-"

"CORNELIUS!"

The hare was silent.

"Thank you. As I was about to tell you, she was possesed. Whoever is trying to kill me used her to attempt it."

"This is just too weird."

"I know."

Chapter 4

"No! Noooo! Don't do it! Stop! What are you doing!"

"Allayne! Calm down! Stop What?"

She opened her eyes, and looked at where she was. She was in the infirmary. Her arm was in a cast, strapped down. "Father Abbot! I'm sorry! I'm so Sorry! I couldn't help it!"

The abbot sneered. "You were so easy to control. So is your abbot. All of you! So easy to manipulate." He pointed at Cornelius, who was staring at the abbot in shock and fear. The sneer dissapeared off the abbots face as he hit the ground. "No!" All three yelled at the same time. Cornelius got the same sneer that the abbot did.

"See? I told you how week you redwallers really are."

Then Cornelius hit the ground Shaking. There was a woosh, and the door opened and closed. "This is not good." Said the abbot, shaking.

Personal Journal of Abbot Morty of Redwall abbey.

Things are not looking good. A hidden killer is out, one that can control even me. I have no idea when it will come back. But It has some effects on me. My vermin side almost feels like its surfacing. Evil thoughts come. Its easy to get rid of them now, but Later? I don't know. But already it uas made an attempt on my life. Our abbey recorder and resident seer, Allayne, was controlled already, and wounded Cornelius attempting to do it.

Personal journal of Cornelius of Redwall Abbey in Mossflower Country.

Nothing is as it one was. I can't bring myself to trust anybeast. Not even the abbot or myself. Some sort of a spirit attacked us, succesfully controling Allayne, Abbot Morty, and Myself. I can only hope this passes over us..."

Extract from the writings of Allayne, Recorder of Redwall Abbey in Mossflower country.

Its horrible! Whatever wants to kill the abbot can control me, Him, and Cornelius. We are all doomed.

BOOM! BOOM! "Will somebeast let me in!"

Rodney had arrived.

Allayne put down her writing and opened the door. "Rodney?" She said, recognizing the hedgehog. "Yes, Tis me. May I see your abbot?"

"Um... yes. Just remember rules of non-violence, please." She went off, leaving Rodney puzzled.

Rodney was sitting in the gatehouse, when he heard a voice from behind him. "I trust your Rodney. Allayne said I'd find you here."

Rodney turned, and saw a ferret behind him. "What 'r' you doin' in here, varmint?"

"I assure you I am not a vermin. I am Abbot Morty. Interesting time that you should visit us, though."

Abbot Morty found a dagger at his throat. "You lyin' muderin' scum! What've you done t' the real abbot?"

"Rodney! Stop! He is the real abbot!" Allayne came rushing into the room.

Rodney droped his dagger. "But.. how did he become abbot?"

Allayne motioned out with her good arm. "Lets talk about it over tea."
