Sorry for the long, long, long, wait. I had an evil army of plot bunnies attacking me! I also have been doing schoolwork, and recently have started English 10. So I am being inspired to write, because we have been doing short stories on events in my life. I hated it! I think I could of done better if I made up characters! Well on to the story!
Disclaimer done by my Yami Karyan: My Hikari doesn't own Redwall. All she owns is all the books except the newest one and me. That's all! So don't send any Lawyers or we will be forced to use Tigerlily's light sword and chop them to itty bitsy bits!
' Blah' thoughts
Chapter 6 (YAY!)
I woke up to a bright light shining in my eyes, and a very loud pounding in my head. ' Where am I?' I wondered to myself. I remembered swords, blood, and a battle cry. Slowly it started it came to me. My friends and I were traveling down the trail to Redwall when a gang of foxes ambushed us. I told them to run to safety, while I covered their backs. Then myself fighting the dirty and smelly foxes, and an otter coming to my side to help me. Then all was blank after that.
I looked at my surroundings, I found a window to my right that showed trees and an open plane that looked, from this distance, like it had wildflowers growing in it. There were beds on my side and the other side of the room with a door on my right. The walls looked like they were made of some kind of stone. The color of the walls was hard to distinguish. There was another door to my left also. I continued to look around and ponder stuff.
' But that doesn't answer my previous question. Where am I?' As if someone was reading my mind and trying to make me fell like I was insane. A hedgehog came into the room and came towards me.
" How are you felling?" the hedgehog asked me, and by the voice it sounded like it was a female. " I am Sister Floburt, one of the infirmary keeper at Redwall. My brother Egburt is the other one."
" Well to answer your question I have a headache and I hurt all over."
" Oh, I can fix that." With that said she went off to the door on my right and open it. From the look of it, it was an office that had much stuff on shelves and in cabinets.
Floburt came back with a cup full of some liquid that I suspected to taste awful.
"Here drink this. It's to help take care of the headache and the pain caused by the wounds on the rest of your body."
" Alright." I said, and thought to myself ' Famous last words!' I drunk the stuff and to my surprise it didn't taste like a living thing and died and then made into a liquid. I tasted like strawberries and cream. I mentally laughed to myself in my head of the irony of it. I guess my surprise must have shown itself on my face because Floburt stared to talk.
" What were you thinking it would taste like? My brother and I have made sure that all of our medicine taste good, because it use to be a job and a half to get any one to take the medicine. We should now because we used to give the infirmary keeper a hard time giving us, my brother and I, medicine."
There was a knock on the door to my left that the sister had come in from and Floburt went and poked her head out the door into the hallway.
" Hello, may I help you?" Floburt asked whoever was in the hallway.
" Yes," Said a familiar voice. " We would like to know if our friend is awake?"
Floburt nodded her head and let them in. Once my friends saw me awake and sitting up, they rushed towards me. Jane was the first to reach me and almost killed me in her bear hug of hers, finally when she let go the rest of the girls did the same and my brother, I swear he almost broke a couple of ribs. Dixon and Tollaw just stood off to the side and watched me be hugged to the brink of death. Finally Floburt stepped in and told them that I needed to rest. I think she saw me turn blue a couple of times and felt pity for me.
They stopped hugging me but asked if they could stay longer. Floburt let them stay, but the guys went to dinner, knowing that there was going to be crying.
" I well leave you all alone and I will send someone up to bring you all dinner." Floburt said.
" Thank you." I replied. Floburt left and I looked to my friends. " So what have up all been up to?"
" Well since you have been asleep for five days we have been worrying about you, worrying, helping around the place, and worrying." Replies Yeather.
" Oh. Well I hoped you had fun helping out." I said meekly. " Also I'm sorry for having you worry about me." There was a knock on the door again and a male otter and a male harvest mouse come in pushing trays that had a large amount of food.
" Here you go. Some of Redwall's finest food." The harvest mouse said.
" Thank you Nimbalo." Said Yeather. Once I heard that name I had a really hard time trying to conceal my surprise and happiness. ' Soooo that letter was true! YAY! Man I need to lay off on the preverbal sugar.'
I guess I had a very happy look on my face, because the male otter asked, "I guess you must be very hungry. I know I would be after five days."
" Well yeah. Um" I said starting to get nervous because I didn't know him and I am really, really shy around people I don't know. " Um...My names Tigerlily." I said meekly.
"Well my name is Deyna, and I already knew your name because your friends already told us, as in the residents of Redwall, your name."
"Oh." I said while glaring at my friends.
" Well I let you and your friends talk. Come on Nimbalo." Said Deyna.
When the door finally closed I turned to my 'friends' and asked, " Why does the whole population of REDWALL KNOW MY NAME." While raising my voice.
" Tigerlily not so loud! They kept asking us your name so we told them and it somehow got around the place." Said Jane.
" Oh. Um…so how do you like the place?" I asked them all.
" We really enjoyed it, including the guys. We can see why you like the books. The dibbuns are really innocent, more innocent then the kids back home." Said Crystalyn.
" Yay! I finally got friends that agree with me!" I say with excitement. Suddenly, out of the blue I yawn. " I guess I'm still tired and I've had five days of sleep!"
" We'll leave you to go back to sleep. O'tay?" said Jane.
" O'tay!"
So how was the Chapter? I am so, so, so, so sorry that it toke this long to update! Please don't try to come after me with weapons or bombs! (Looks around nervously) This also is a work in progress, which means I don't really write it on paper. I just kind of just sit down and start typing up a chapter. I also changed my pen name, cuz' wouldn't show my start of a new story for some odd reason when I had the 2250 on the end. So now my name is ' TigerlilyandSugarRules! ' you like? I will probably change it to something better later. I don't know. Well now all you have to do as readers is push the little button below that says summit. I think, and send me a review, where you can yell my head off for being a very bad updater. I will give virtual cookies to the first reviewer.
Karyan: Like you are going to give them cookies.
Tigerlily: Shush! You're supposed to be my Yami! You're not supposed to let me get hurt! Well review please!
