From Redwall MUCK Wiki


Here the log, I play Leon and Brightwing

Leon sits by the river trying to figure out just how to get a slave collar off and sighs as he debates on running off, he takes a look around and decides to try and make a run for it.

Aithne wakes up and catches sight of him running off and gives chase, “Come back here mouse!”

Melibella just happens to be walking along the river bank, slowly almost tipping over an oversize robe she has on.

Leon comes up the bank and about crashes into the rabbit maid and comes to a halt to catch his breath, “Be good idea to run miss.” He still has the collar on his neck.

Aithne has caught up to the mouse and smirks, “I say mouseie, you’re a pawful and you’re going to stay where you are.”

Melibella gasps, “V..V..Vermin!” She starts to run and then holds her middle as if in pain.

Leon starts to say something to Aithne when he turns to the rabbit maid “Are you ok miss?” He goes over to check on her, making the mistake of forgetting about the vixen.

Melibella shakes her head, “No…it hurts.” A closer look shows she is with dibbun, very much with dibbun as she starts shivering a little.

Aithne takes the chance and goes to grab Leon and attach a rope to his collar and looks at the rabbit, “Your going nowhere either cause your go tell others!”

Leon struggles and kicks “Let me go I need to help her!”

Melibella scoots back as she had been sitting, “No..back away..” She lets out a yelp as pain comes and goes. ”Please…”

Aithne chuckles coldly “Why should I care..you can both be my slaves, I mean who needs Hudson.”

Leon glares at the fox “You’re going to let me help her and now!”

Melibella lies down and frowns, she can’t go anywhere and is in tears from both pain and fear of what’s going to happen to her.

Aithne rolls her eyes and drops Leon by the rabbit, “Fine help her, but if this is a trick..your both die as its clear she can’t run too fast at all and you can’t with a rope on that collar, I could easily grab it and prevent you from going anywhere.”

Leon glares at the fox and crawls over to the rabbit maid trying to forget the vixen as he tries to help Melibella and offers a smile “I am Brother Leon, Master Healer of Redwall Abbey let me help you.”

Melibella nods slowly, him she can trust. The fox she is not trusting at all.

--Couple Hours Pass—

Melibella looks down at the tiny newborn rabbit in her arms and smiles, “Thank you.” She says softly.

Aithne has decided to be as far away as possible from this, they are both in slave collars and those collars have ropes of a semi fair length tied to a tree, they won’t be going anywhere without her knowing it, she soon falls asleep.

Leon nods “Your welcome” He glances over at the vixen and sighs, and looks at the rabbit “Not to worry I am sure beasts are looking for me now, least I hope so. The sparrows know I was caught.”

Melibella asks, “What do sparrows have to do with anything.” She rocks the newborn best she can, “I can’t even feed her, not making hardly any milk and I am sure that..the vermin wouldn’t get any bottles of milk.”

Leon frowns “Yes you’re probably right. I am unsure what to do the child needs milk soon. If all was different I would help you to Redwall but it’s been taken over by a stoat named Marek and his horde.”

Melibella nods and frowns “Me and my mate Jess meet some of his horde when he was claiming land for himself, Jess told me to run, run away and he catches up later. He fought them and was seriously injured but he refused to find a healer. He wanted to get me and…her” She looks at the newborn, “To safety somewhere, we made it to the river and hid over the next few days, but my mate died from his wounds and a fever he got.”

Leon frowns “I am sorry. I would say things will be ok but that could be a lie.”

From up in the air a tweet is heard and a familiar sparrow lands nearby “Mouseworm Leon!”

Melibella holds her newborn close as she watches the bird.

Leon smiles “Brightwing wormfriend!” Yes he speaks sparrow, “Me and the rabbitworm needum your helpa , go fly and findum Lee otterworm, head guard of red wormhome..” He empties his knapsack of some apples, bandages, and a small towel he had and makes it soft inside, “Melibella the baby please.”

Melibella seems unsure and then lays her down, “Asha..her name is Asha, it means hope. Hope she will be safe and hope that we will be saved.”

Brightwing tilts his head and watches “Brightwing will doa this for healerworm Leon, will find Lee and getum help quickfast.”

Leon smiles “Asha is a good name.” He lays her down in the knapsack and writs a quick note with the little bit of ink on his quill pen and rolls it up and ties it on the sparrow’s leg so it doesn’t get lost. “There now flyum and finda Lee now and iffa can foxworm Flicktail”

Brightwing nods and carefully takes the knapsack and flies off, he will fly semi-low but also try to avoid any trouble.

Melibella watches and turns to Leon, “I just hope Asha will be safe”

Leon nods “She will be”

--Brightwing arrives in Ferravale—

Brightwing circles and lands near the infirm, carefully carrying a knapsack and hopes around looking for someone.

Asha is unseen for now, she will let her where abouts be known soon most likely

Inside the infirm, among the many beds left either vacant or filled with sick animals, there sits Bandit. The brown furred fox is bare chested with fresh new bandages wrapped around his middle and looking completely miserable. Across from him sits a non-vermin beast. A small grey furred mouse with claw like scares running down his snout. His arm is in a sling and his other shoulder is bandaged. He looks equally miserable but for different reasons.

Brightwing knows of Bandit, a little and lays down the knapsack and hopes over to the fox "Whereum otterworm Lee or Championworm?"

Eliana is laying on a bed hidden mostly from view by a few curtains, healers moving here and there, one seeming to stick with her, as she moves some, the healer smiles and gently pushes the curtains back reveling the wildcat, and letting her see the whole room and anyone coming at her, she currently has some kind of soup she is sipping, a cool cloth still draped over her head as she enjoys her meal in silence, thankfully that collar around her neck is gone but the mark is still there, all the fur gone from where the collar once was, her arm lays bandaged to one side the bowl sitting on a table over her bed sticking to using one hand and arm for now.

Asha leaves Brightwing's group and wanders off on her own.

Bandit cranes his head to the sound of the curtains being drawn. He raises an eyebrow to the sight of a wild cat. His heart races for a moment before he realizes that this is, obviously, not the wild cat he had problems with before. With a grunt of effort the fox leans back on his cot, resting his paws behind his head, "Lee can tie his tail in a knot for all I care bird." he replies to the appreance of the avian. "As for Flicktail...I haven’t seen him since before the invasion."

Brightwing tilts his head at the oddness of the fox words "Why tie tail, messageum have for otterworm from healermouse"

Eliana ignores the others for now eating her soup nice and slow, sipping from her juice every now and then, she is much different than when they brought her in yesterday attached to a chain and a collar, and a rough state.

Bandit twitches an ear. "Healermouse?" He says, glancing at the sparrow without moving from where he is laying. "Which healer mouse do you mean?" It couldn't be Leon, could it? Meanwhile the mouse drags himself out of the cot. Tavis begins making his way towards the back of the infirm away from this the cots filled with sick vermin. He begins to pass by the wild cat.

Brightwing puffs out "Healerworm..Mouseworm Leon, isum in trouble crazy foxworm"

And the knapsack moves as the angry bird woke the baby it seems as soft crying comes from the knapsack

Eliana jumps suddenly first because of the passing fox, spilling her soup, the healer rushes over and frowns "Stop upsetting the patients," she pulls the blanket off the bed that got soiled and moves to go get another, Eliana jumps against at that crying, suddenly clamping her paws over her ears, as she shakes eyes closed tightly. The healer returns with blankets and gets Eliana set before she looks over frowning "why does that bird have a baby with it?”

The passing mouse jumps slightly too. "You took the words right out of my mouth cat." Tavis states flatly. The fox leans up on his caught. Rubbing his eyes Bandit states just as flatly, "Wait, slow down. Leon is in trouble with a fox...and you have a dibbun here..."

Brightwing frowns, "Belongs to hareworm...have note"

Asha lets out a small whimper noise, it’s clear she is not very old..like at all.

Eliana hides herself under her blanket "feed baby she hungry." she says finally the first words spoken from her. She shakes her head and still shakes but keeps hidden under the sheet.

Tavis raises an eyebrow to the hiding wildcat. It is, unusual to say the least, to see such a feircesome beast cower under the covers like this. Having the curiosity of a cat the mouse asks aloud, "What's with you?" The fox lowers his ears, "I'll take the note. I can get it to Flicktail, or Lee. Did he mention Bandit at all?"

Brightwing shakes his head and drops the note, "Dibbun possible not safe whereum was Brightwing bring here"

Asha is at a soft whimper now and then cooing sounds as she grabs the knapsack strap, hmmm this looks good to gum to death as she does just that. :)

Eliana shakes a little under that blanket and keeps silent, the healer draws the curtains and glares "You would be a frady cat if you were enslaved for years and abused to the point." she looks back at Eliana "Well it is up to her if her condition is to be known but for now just let her rest, she wonders over to the knapsack and attempts to check the hare babe over.

The mouse raises an eyebrow and simply shakes his head. "She has my sympathies then." Is all he will say. The fox picks up the note and reaches down to pick up the dibbun. After all it would be rather bad to leave a child on the floor. "Leon, what have you gotten yourself into this time..."

Brightwing is here hopping back and forth, he is just a messenger and didn’t want to carry the knapsack but he did. "Message needum go Leeotter, to otterworm."

Asha is picked up and stares at the fox, she starts to whimper and then sees his whisker and those look very interesting and a paw shoots out to grab a whisker!

Eliana keeps hidden away in her cot, having calmed down now that she is alone again, and left to relax.

Dropping the letter Bandit clutches at the dibbun pulling on his whiskers, "GAH! Ow ow ow ow. Off off off! Foxy is not play toy! Foxy is not play toy!" Tavis only face palms. "Foxy is obviously not good with dibbuns either."

Brightwing tilts his head, a guard of the town had went to see if the otter was anywhere around town.

Asha makes a face as the fox yells and tears come and loud wailing comes. Yes her lungs are healthy and strong!

Eliana covers her ears and frowns, before she finally gets out of her cot standing wobbly, as she heads over slowly not to steady on her paws just yet, she holds her arms out to the fox with that look of give it to me." silent still, shaking noticeably the healer standing nearby just blinks in shock, before nodding to the others "Let her try to calm the dibbun."

Lee comes in shortly. "Oy, I'm busy interrogatin' me prisoner, I got no time for these interruptions!" He peers around. "Now which o' ye were lookin' for me?"

The fox wouldn't care if a wolverine had offered to take the dibbun, "Take it! Take it!" The fox desperately tries to hand off the newborn to this stranger while even more desperately trying to get her out of his whiskers. Tavis the mouse limps over, "Really? Not one of you lot knows how to care for dibbuns? Of all the..." He pauses at the arrival of the otter. At first he thinks it’s the otter he met from before but on second glance sees that it is not.

Brightwing looks over at Lee "Lee otterworm, haveum note from healermouse friend"

Asha just wiggles and wails still, maybe even holding a lone whisker as newborns grips are fairly strong, she whimpers and cries still at all these strange beast and probably just wants her mama.

Eliana suddenly erupts into a warm purr, and gently rocks the dibbun tickling the belly to get her to let go of that whisker, she then moves wobbly over away from the loud bunch still rocking the dibbun as she looks to the healer who brings her over a semi warm bottle of milk, before drawing the curtain around the two, she looks over and glares, before wondering over she doesn't seem the least bit scared that she just left a dibbun with a wildcat at all, in fact is she yes she is smiling from ear to ear, she knows something she isn't telling and seems to be happy for the wildcat. "You all discuss what needs discussed, but please keep it down people are trying rest.

Lee peers at the sparrow. "Message from healermouse Leon for Otterworm? Let me see."

Brightwing looks at the note Bandit dropped on the floor.

Dear Whomever,

Please contact Le and Flicktail on where I am. I and a rabbit maid are along the river bank upriver from the bridge and I am unsure how long we will be there. A vixen has us captive and seems to wish to work alone for whatever reason. I send this note and yes that is a newborn rabbit just place her somewhere safe in case we are not found.
Leon

Slapping at his muzzle the fox whines loudly, "An injured beast shouldn't have to go through this!" Bandit complains. "Ah shut yer trap fox." Travis decides to head on out away from this craziness. He begins walking towards the otter at the door.

Asha has a whisker, a fox whisker in her paw and drops it to the floor when the milk is offered, a small whimper and then she is drinking milk and grows quiet for now.

Lee looks down, then picks up the note. The otter opens it, and proceeds to read silently.

Eliana gently rocks the dibbun as she feeds the bottle to her, still purring softly, her own whiskers well out of reach, she brings up her tail and gently pets the dibbuns head softly with it as she takes her meal, hidden behind the curtains nicely, not that she really cares what they are doing on the other side, right now her focus is on the dibbun, even as she shakes a little still.

Asha is quiet and happy, then all dibbuns that size need to be happy is some milk and quiet and as she drinks the milk she starts to fall asleep, another pastime of newborns.

Brightwing lets the otter read the note and looks around the room, he moves the knapsack with a talon

Bandit moves off of his cot, "So Mister Lee, care to tell us what is in the letter or will Marek not let you tell us." The fox is in quite the mood and realizes it, "Sorry, That...just sort of came out." The mouse pauses at the door, turning abruptly, "Marek?"

Lee folds the note, glaring at Bandit. "The note doesn't concern ye, actually, so I fail ta see wot business it is o' yers. In point o' fact, this note 'as nothin' ta do with Marek."

Eliana scoots up on the cot and lays back once that bottle is finished and the dibbun starts to drift off, pulling a warm blanket over them both, she settles for a nap as well, still purring softly, making sure to keep the dibbun nice and safe so she won't fall off her.

Asha has fallen asleep and sleeps quietly now.

The fox just shakes his head, "Well if it's from Leon I would like to know what kind of trouble he is in." Tavis crosses his good arm across his chest. Darn the sling. "And if something involves Marek I wouldn't mind hearin about it either."

Lee frowns. "If ye insist ta know, Leon were kidnapped three days ago by associates of the wild cat Hudson, a pole cat named Whisper, an' a as yet unknown second beast that Whisper be very keen not ta tell me about. I captured Whisper two nights ago, an' she currently be locked up in the cell. Whisper's 'friend' still 'as Leon somewhere in Mossflower."

Brightwing speaks up as he nods "Seen foxworm by riverbank yesum and though hurt rabbitworm. Rabbitworm haveum dibbun..dibbun notta safe there so I bringum here " The sparrow then hops out of the infirm, his message delivered and he can led the otter there if asked, in the meantime he will stay nearby. He flaps upwards and to the pond in Ferravale and the barn that’s nearby the Ferravale pond where, for now, the Sparra are staying.
