A/N: Thank you to everyone reading and who has added this story on alert :) I love y'all!
Days passed… Matthias foolishly decided to try to get Martin back. I worried about him for days on end, it interfered with my chores and many thought that I would be sick. But then, he came back to me… (To see where we are, consult Redwall, book 2, chapter 2 around page 111)
"Oh Matthias, thank goodness you're back safe!" Cornflower gushed, hugging him.
"Oh, I always come back Cornflower, like a bad penny," Matthias teased.
"You know you're my lucky penny," Cornflower told him as she dragged him away from the prying eyes of people and into a deserted hall.
"Cornflower, I'm just glad you're safe," Matthias said.
"I'm glad you're the safe one."
"How is your dad?"
"Oh, he's doing great!" Cornflower spilled.
Matthias hugged Cornflower, it was so good to be back. The door opened at one end of the hall and they jumped apart like two jack rabbits. It was the Abbot.
"Hello you two. Am I bothering you? What have you been doing? You're bright red!"
