A/N Hey everybody, its Grubswiper, bringing another chapter for 'An Ottermaid's Tale'. I hope you like it and review….

Thanks for answering my question I had last chapter. Now I have a new question. You know how a lot of people like to watch TV, myself including. I would like to know what your favorite TV show is. My favorite is Americas Funniest Home Videos because, well…. It's funny. Just tell me what you think!

Disclaimer: Grubswiper is out mowing the lawn on a Saturday morning and notices that the mail man had tied his mail to the newspaper. 'That's thoughtful' Grubswiper thought. But what he did not notice was that while he was looking at the paper, his lawnmower headed straight for it. In the next moment…..ZZZZZZPZPZPZPZZZZZZZPZZPZZPPZ! The lawn mower had taken no prisoners when running over the paper with the letters tied to it. As Grubswiper turned off the mower, he groaned as picked up the paper slash letters.

As he was picking up letters he saw a letter piece that read, "Deed of Redwall". the only thing anyone could hear was the distraught writer sobbing and crying for 30 minutes.

(Begin chapter 15)

By noon the travelers were already up the mountains, sampling new kinds of plants and adding to their supplies. As they make their way, Halden and Timberpaw were discussing about the direction they were headed.

Timberpaw was almost exited when he voiced his opinion.

"I think we should go to Salamandastron and ask for aid. There are many hares at the mountain that can fight well, and we will be at the mountain soon once we pass this range."

"Well, what kind of enemies would we have to go through to get their?" Halden pondered. He was sure there would some kind of vermin that would love to attack them.

"None whatsoever! The only any other obstacle would be bad weather and storms." Timberpaw announced happily.

As the sun climbed the sky, the small army climbed the mountain. Now that the terrain was getting steep, everyone stopped talking and concentrated on climbing the tall mountain. Earthpaw, never a fan of heights, began whining out in pitiful moans.

"Burr, Oi wish Oi could close moi eyes. Oi dearly 'ates mountins!"

Tipon the porcupine gave him a stern stare. "Quit gabbing then and focus on climbing sir mole!"

Curry quietly muttered to Tipon out of the side of her mouth, "Go easy on Earthpaw, you know how mole are, they're always afraid of heights. If they weren't that would not be normal!"

Tipon stern face softened when she realized how cross she had been to the mole.

"Im sorry, you right. I'll apologize to him after we find a spot to rest."

(In Mossflower woods)

It had been a busy couple of days of making a tree fort, but they had finished their task. Streamtail and quicktail both congratulated themselves on the fort.

"Well done mate. It's not fancy, but it works!"

"Aye, this is just what we needed. Do you think Darkhide will attacked soon?"

"I dunno mate. But I think we should attack them. We should be on the offensive, don't you think?"

Quicktail flicked his rudder in agreement to Streamtail. "You're right matey. We should plan a attack later today during supper."

At that night, thick clouds had brewed and soon rain came cascading down. But with trees providing cover for the air fort, the woodlanders provided cover and there were little, if not none about the rain.

(Halden and travelers)

For the traveling army, the rain was completely unexpected. Lightning exploded over them, with loud cracks of thunder to follow, as if a cook with a hare following him, yowling for food.

Timberpaw and Halden had to yell to make themselves heard as wind soon came into play. As the pair, like the rest stumbled around, Halden shouted to Timberpaw.

"We need to find shelter mate, this is no use trying to trek through the mountain and face a storm at the same time."

Even the large Timberpaw had to struggle upright as the gales of wind fought to blow him away.

"We better mate, or we're done for. I've only seen one, but I know when it arrives. There's a tornado com-"

But the rest of his voice was cut off as a low loud moan came from the sky. Halden fought to look up to his horror he utterly staggering sight. There was a tunnel in the sky!
