Hehe, I forgot to mention. Yes this is inspired by a certain story called "Redwall and the Haunted Mansion". ;) Also I just realized that this whole time Fring is suppossed to be Frang o.o Ah well, he is a minor character.
"So, then, I was just about to pick the strange hamburger up," Murig continued his story, "but then I saw-"
"PLEASE!" moaned Tarul, "Skip to the last sentence!"
"It turns out it was the very same chicken," Murig concluded.
Every bird stared at him. The doomwytes were looking for cotton candy for Korvus.
"I bet Ironbeak doesn't make his army do stupid tasks," FRANG (hehe I got it right) grunted.
"Nor does he kill his own birds," Veeku commented, remembering his own death.
"And isn't crazy and talks to a fish," Vugri added.
Suddenly they heard a dull hissing. They turned to see Baliss, the adder that they were terrified of in their lifetime. Not to mention, Vugri was eaten by him in the book, so that wasn't going to end well. They decided not to take their chances and fly off. As they flew up, Baliss caught Frang by his wing. The raven cawed and flapped madly, but none of the other doomwytes felt like going near the adder's mouth.
"You know, this means only two more of us will die," Purz said.
"Help me!" Frang cried out.
"Oh, give me a break!" A voice sounded, "You're just gonna let him get eaten?"
"Yeah, basically," Veeku said.
"Ugh."
Skarlath the kestrel circled overhead. He dove down, snatched Frang in his talons, and flew back up to where the goup of birds were hovering.
"See, SOME birds are nice enough to save someone else's life," Frang said.
"Don't be so helpless," Veeku scolded, "Save your own life once in awhile."
"Oh," Frang turned to Skarlath, "I, uh, thank you..."
"Don't mention it," the kestrel said.
"This is all very touching, but if you didn't realize, there is a giant adder waiting for us down on the ground," Tarul grunted.
"If we fly high enough, maybe we can get out of this stupid story," Purz suggested.
"Shut up, you haven't been in it as long as some of us," Murig said.
"I'm not letting any of you leave," the writer said, "They is an invisible barrier around Disneyland. You cannot escape that easy."
They all grumbled, except for Skarlath, who was confused about this 'story'.
Meanwhile, Rose and Cornflower were sitting in the strange room, looking for a way out. "This is getting really stupid," Cornflower said.
"What is?" Rose asked
"This story thing," Cornflower answered, staring at the bubblewrap.
"Just go along with it, don't make the writer mad," Rose said.
"Bubble!" Rollo giggled, popping part of the bubblewrap.
"No, Rollo," Cornflower picked him up, "That's the only thing keeping us from the dark things."
"He's gonna have good dreams tonight," Rose commented.
"Well if you're not gonna tell the kid the truth-"
"Wait, Cornflower!" Rose said, peering through the bubblewrap, "I don't see any of them!"
Rose ripped the bubblewrap off and jumped down. Cornflower followed, holding Baby Rollo.
"Look, the exit isn't blocked anymore!" Rose pointed out.
The two mousemaids (Micemaids? Mousemaids? Whatever...) ran outside, greeting the fresh air.
"It's strange they just left like that," Cornflower said.
"Shh, don't question it," Rose looked around, then whispered "Or they'll be back." insert dramatic music here
"Ooookay?" Cornflower shook her head, "Let's just find the rest of them."
"We don't have to find them, I hear 'em," Rose said, pointing in a certain direction that the author is to lazy to say where they are.
"%#*!" They heard Breeze shout.
"Yeah, well, *&#%$!" Dotti screamed back.
"Both of you %#$^&!" Tsarmina yelled.
"%&*$#!" Mattimeo yelled out, not wanting to miss out.
"Mattimeo!" Cornflower scolded, coming up to them, "Don't swear like that! Just for that, tonight you're going to have to scrub your mouth! Then you will eat the soap!"
"Cornflower!" Matthias shouted, hugging her.
"Rose!" Martin shouted, running up to her but closed his eyes so he didn't realize he was hugging Badrang instead.
"%$#&*!" Badrang yowled. Martin jumped back in surprise.
"You too, mister," Cornflower scolded, "You'll have to scrub your mouth tonight!"
"And eat it," Martin sneered.
"Same for you, young ladies!" Cornflower turned to Tsarmina, Dotti and Breeze. They groaned.
Before they could do anything else, a piece of paper fluttered down to them.
"OH MY GOD ITS A MESSAGE FROM BEYOND THE BEYOND!" Chickenhound screamed, grabbing it.
"What's it say?" Nightshade asked.
"I DON'T KNOW, I CAN'T READ!" Chickenhound answered, still shouting. He put on the mask.
"But I can," Slagar said. Everyone stared at him. "It says... uh...."
"Oh, gimme that!" Sela said, "You are a poor excuse for a son!"
"I ain't your son, woman!" Slagar said, "Your son was Chickenhound, who was eaten by Asmodeus!"
"Oh shut up," the vixen growled, "Anyway, this says: If you want to advance in the dumb plot, go on the Indiana Jones ride."
"HEY!" The writer shouted, "YOU WEREN'T SUPOSSED TO LEARN THAT!"
"Let's go!" Nightshade called out.
"Um, remember, we don't even know what the heck it is, let alone where it is," Cornflower reminded her.
"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" She screamed like a psycho, running away.
"DON'T disappear like the others!" Matthias dragged her back.
"If my doomwytes were here, then they could scout out this 'India John' thing," Korvus said.
"You idiot, it's Indian Jonas!" Ironbeak cawed.
"I heard it as Indiana Jones..." Mangiz said under his breath.
"Be quiet!" Ironbeak grunted to the crow, "Maybe you should go find this Indian Johns, because you are a seer, you can find it with a vision or something."
"Welzz could do it, if Baliss didn't kill him," Korvus grumbled.
Sicariss suddenly appeared on his head. "He isn't really, I've been trying to tell you this for a long time!"
"Nightshade is a seer," Mangiz said, "Why not her?"
"BOTH of you then," Ironbeak said.
"I, uh, only take orders from Swartt," Nightshade said, not wanting to do this.
"Go do whatever the bird just said," Swartt instructed, walking up. He, Veil, and Bluefen had finally come back. They didn't get the same welcome Rose and Cornflower got.
"Fine," Nightshade pouted.
The two seers left to find the Indiana Jones ride. Everyone waited for an hour. They didn't come back. Everyone waited for two hours. They didn't come back. Everyone waited for-
"WE GET IT!"
The author pouted and waited for the two seers to return. They heard wingbeats, and thought it was Mangiz. No, it was just those dumb doomwytes.
"HEY!" Tarul shouted.
"I'm not a doomwyte!" Skarlath declared.
Then the seers returned
"We didn't find anything," Mangiz said.
Nightshade giggled.
"But we did find something that would be useful to you," she said, "It's called common sense."
Everyone stared at her.
"Turn around," Mangiz said blankly.
They did. It turns out, they were at the entrance to the ride this whole time. Ignoring sarcastic comments from Mangiz and Nightshade, the group went inside.
"I think we're in some sort of temple," Rose said.
"Oh really?" Martin grunted. He really did not want to be here.
They reached the cars. They all climbed in with no particular order.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Martin held back.
"C'mon, it'll be fun!" Rose pulled him in, "We have to advance through the plot, ya know."
The cars began to move forward. They entered the Chamber of Destiny.
"Sounds cool!" Matthias said.
"Let's see... do I want the Fountain of Youth or the Observatory of the Future? That would be good, to see how Matti is going to grow up," Cornflower said, seeing the three doors.
"Chamber of Earthly Riches!" All of the vermin, plus a few of the abbeybeasts, but they wouldn't admit it. The cars steered towards that door, and they entered a corridor. At the end of the tunnel, a large idol had flashing eyes.
"What is that?" Sela asked.
"Foolish mortals! You-"
"It's the voice from the haunted mansion!!!!!!" Basil shouted.
"OH MY GOD IT'S THE-" Slagar began to shout.
"IF ANYONE SHOUTS 'OH MY GOD IT'S THE...' AGAIN, I WILL KILL THEM!" Constance appeared in a random car.
"As I was SAYING before I was so RUDELY interuppted," the idol said, "You have-"
The cars turned the corner before he could finish.
"I am so unappreciated," the idol grumbled to himself.
The cars made a sharp turn into the Tunnel of Torment.
"That sounds bad..." Dotti said.
They began to go over the Cavern of Bubbling Death, which contained a rickety old bridge that looked like it was about to burst into flames, which was suspended over boiling magma.
"I WANNA GO HOME!" Chickenhound clutched Sela. Just as they were about to leave the cavern, the mask of Slagar flew out of Chickenhound's grasp and fluttered down to the lava below.
"SLAGAR NOOOO!!!!!" Chickenhound yowled.
"Get over it!" Sela puched him off of her, sending him down to the floor of the car, "I doubt that's real lava."
"This is lame," Mattimeo grumbled as they passed through a room with skeletons jumping out at them.
The rest of them screamed the whole time. They went through multiple perils, until they entered a dark place. They looked around, but saw nothing. Suddenly they saw a rope (the one Indiana Jones is meant to be hanging onto), which Cluny was clutching for dear life.
"Back up, let me in!" he sobbed, "I'm loosing my grip."
No one cared. Suddenly theyrealized a massive boulder was hurdling towards them. They all screamed and the cars started up. In terror, Cluny let go of the rope and fell. He landed on top of Bluefen.
"Get off my woman!" Swartt grabbed the big rat and threw him into the back seat. "I'm drivin' this car and savin' you all!"
He thought he was driving as he sped towards the exit, and they made a drop, sending all of the creatures screaming.
"Save me!" Tsarmina dug her claws into the nearest creature, who happened to be Badrang. The stoat yelped in pain.
At the end of the ride, many of them were crying from fright. Except Rollo, who was giggling.
"We advanced in the plot, I guess," Purz said.
"Thanks to me, I saved you all!" Swartt said.
"Sssshut up, Ssswartt," Sicariss said, who was perched on Korvus's head.
"That was scary," Cluny said, "There were these... things... and..."
Before he could explain, he passed out. Before anyone said anything, the writer made them all appear back at the hotel.
Whoohoo! New character, Skarlath. And Cluny's back, and I have many things planned for him in the next chapter. The next chapter will be a break from this stupid plot and will be a very funny hotel scene including:
• Badrang and Clogg get drunk
• Cluny gets hyper
• Dotti and Breeze have a major catfight
• Korvus declares war on Ironbeak
• The most massive pillowfight you will ever see
And more! So be prepared for the worst. Also, Slagar will be back. Mwhahahahahahahaha*cough*hahaha!
