Post by bunniefuu »



(Cups clinking)

(Crowd cheering)



(Laughing)



Redwall!





(Sniffing)

Ah, you will love this one,

little daughter.

It's as bright and beautiful as

you are, Auma.

(Sniffing)

(Sighing)

(Crows calling)

(Sniffing)

(Gasping)

Auma!

Auma!

Auma!

Who has taken you?

(Growling)

Slagar!

The fox, Slagar the Slaver!

(Screaming)



I will find you, Auma.

I'll follow you to the end of

your days, Slagar!

Orlando the Axe will follow you

to the end of your days!



(Groaning)

(Whipping)

Revenge.

(Grunting)

Liar, you're no warrior's

son!

You're just a skinny little rat!

I'm not a rat, I'm a mouse.

Rat, rat, rat!

(Grunting)

It's his fault!

He pulled my tail and called me

names.

CONSTANCESilence!

(Sighing)

Vitch, you are a newcomer to our

abbey.

Here, v*olence is never an

answer to a quarrel.

It was Mattimeo!

He hit me first.

Son of Matthias the Warrior,

look at me.

Vitch is a newcomer.

A guest in our abbey.

You were born here and should

know better.

He said I wasn't a warrior.

Well, I am.

Shame on you, Mattimeo!

(Sighing)

You shame your father and your

mother.

Go to your father immediately.

Let him deal with you.

(Laughing)

Ow!

And I will not have

whimpering and whining and

blaming others.

Ow, ow, ow!

CONSTANCEYou will scrub

pans as a punishment, Vitch.

(Growling)

(Gasping)

Tess, Tim, Sam, get back to

your duties.

Yes, Constance.

(Sighing)



(Doors slamming)

Quiet!

You want all of Mossflower to

know I'm here?

Right, chief.

Oh, please, could we have

some water?

Water?

How about a tasty cane?

(Gasping)

Halftail!

I want slaves to sell, not dead

meat.

Give 'em water.

But chief...

(Growling)


(Groaning)



Tell Threeclaws to watch for

my spy.

Soon I will have my revenge.

Right then.

Us moles be diggin' that cooker

pit for tomorrow's feast, just

like you be wantin'.

Matthias?

Right, thanks, Foremole.

Sorry, my mind was on other

things.

(Chuckling)

I understand.

Don't whack him too hard now,

young Matthias.

(Door opening)

Ahem, mind you give him a

darn good whacking, now.

(Giggling)

Come in, son.

Your mother tells me that

everybody thinks you are

spoiled, because you are my son.

You think that you can get away

with not working, disobeying

orders, fighting guests.

What have you got to say for

yourself?

He insulted me!

Mattimeo!

I'm sorry.

I should hope you are.

Why do you do these things?

Why?

Dunno.

Mattimeo!

Leave this to me, Cornflower.

It's for the best.

(Kissing)

Here, Matty, see if you can

wield the sword of the Warrior

of Redwall.

Whoops!

(Grunting)

I can nearly swing it.

Nearly.

(Gasping)



Huh?

(Laughing)

Thanks, Dad.

It is only a sword, Matty.

And one day it will be yours.

But only if you become good,

gentle and honest.

And strong.

Strong too.

But real strength is not about

lashing out at others just as

you please.

That is the way of the bully,

not a warrior.

Do you understand that, son?

I will not whack you.

I have never laid a paw on you,

and never will.

But you att*cked little Vitch, a

guest, and you must be punished.

But Father...

No more!

I have decided that you will do

Vitch's duties in the kitchen.

(Gasping)

Yes, the son of the Warrior of

Redwall will work as a pan

scrubber.

It might knock some sense of

proportion into you.

I'll do as you have asked,

Father.

Good mouse.

Obedience is a mark of a warrior

in training.

Off you go now.

But there is something wrong

about Vitch, I just know it.

(Sighing)

I know you're watching me,

Martin.

I had to fight Vitch, because he

said things about my father.

He insulted my family.

If Father had known, he wouldn't

have punished me.

But he's my father, and I can't

talk to him like I talk to you.

It'd just sound like an excuse.

I've got to go or I'll be in


more trouble.

At last, my spy.

He's waiting, where have you

been?

Mind your business, fatty.

(Gasping)

You took your time getting

here, spy.

When is the feast to begin?

Tomorrow, around sunset.

But you won't get me back there.

Won't I?

No, I got set on by a nasty

piece of work called Mattimeo--

Mattimeo?

Yes, sly one.

He's the one!

He's the one we'll take

tomorrow.

Are they the ones that hurt

your face?

Get your grubby paw away from

my face!

Get back to your spying.

Get back into Redwall.

Revenge!

I will have my sweet revenge!

(Humming)

MATTIMEOExcuse me, Brother

Ambrose.

Blow me down, young

Matty, don't sneak up on me like

that.

Sorry, Brother Ambrose.

Friar Hugo sent me to get

strawberry cordial, sir.

You?

Matthias the Warrior's son?

(Laughing)

So, what wickedness have you

been up to, young 'un?

(Growling)

Uh, next section.

Careful not to disturb the

elderberry, or it'll go cloudy.

Elderberry, elderberry.

Black currant wine.

Psst, Mattimeo, over here.

We sneaked past old Ambrose

when he was dozing.

Here.

(Giggling)

(Drinking)

But Mattimeo promised his

father he'd help me gather

these.

Oh, dear, in trouble again,

is he?

When isn't he in trouble

these days?

Allow me, ladies.

Whoa!

Two handsome young fillies,

toting all this shrubbery.

Taking garlands, wot, wot?

(Laughing)

Basil Stag Hare, you'll be

the death of us, you will.

(Giggling)

Ah, here's the little fellow,

come to do his duty, I'll be

bound.

Sorry I'm a bit late.

I was helping Brother Ambrose

with the strawberry cordial.

Strawberry cordial, eh?

(Laughing)

Not a word.

Hello, Basil.

What ho, Matthias, old

warrior.

Off fishing, eh?

(Laughing)

Yes, the traditional dish for

the feast.

Well, off to the kitchen for

tiffin.

Toodle, pip, all.

(Giggling)

I never understand half he

says, I don't.

(Laughing)

Hello, hello.

Sorry I'm late.

Come on, Matthias.

Fish to catch!

(Laughing)

Fleaback, Bageye, Skinpaw,

you'll be tumblers.

Halftail, you'll be the


balancing act.

What will you be doing?

I will be Lunar Stellaris,

lord of light and shadow.

(Laughing)

Now you see me, now you don't.

(Sobbing)

Lunar Stellaris, lord of light

and dark.

(Sobbing)

Tonight, Redwall will discover

the meaning of pain.

Throw down any weapons you are

carrying right now.

What, no weapons, chief?

We are performers, not

slavers, you clown.

Drop them!

So when the time is right, do

we take over the abbey?

Capture 'em all?

No.

We take their children.

I'm scared.

I wanna go home.

Don't be afraid.

My father will come for us,

you'll see.

He won't let these terrible

creatures harm us.

Silence, there.

Save your breath for when we get

you to Malkariss.

(Laughing)

Here, pass I that trifle, my

lovely.

(Laughing)

I dearly do love trifle.

You're not saying much,

Basil.

Mm, mm, action, mm, speaks

louder than, mm, words, mum, eh,

what?

Oh, stomach on legs.

(Laughing)

Ready?

(Knocking)

Bit more trifle, my dear?

(Thumping)

I'd like to propose a toast.

A toast to all the abbots past,

and in particular our own abbot

present, Abbot Mordalfus.

(Cheering)

Hear, hear!

A noble toast, Ambrose.

To Abbot Mordalfus and

Redwall Abbey.

ALLTo Abbot Mordalfus and

Redwall Abbey.

(Cheering)

As regimental buffer,

retired, I'd like to toast

anything on toast.

Cheese, mushrooms, beans and all

that.

ALLA toast to toast.

Hear, hear, to strawberry

cordial.

Oops!

(Laughing)

To sugar and cinnamon on

toast.

To honey on toast.

(Music playing)

Hello, what's this?

(Music playing)

I say, bally strolling

players, what luck!

♪ We travel afar

♪ Carry on dale, o'er valley

and hill ♪

♪ Your lordships for to thrill

What can we do for you

travellers?

Aha!

Happy midsummer's eve, my lords.

I, Stellar Lunaris, master of

moon and stars, bring you magic.

(Gasping)

Clowns, tumblers and

magicians!

Oh, can we see them,

Constance?

CHILDRENPlease?

Alas, sad and untrusting

times we live in, Abbot.

Forgive us, friend, merely a


precaution.

We want to see!

We want the show!

CHILDRENWe want to see!

We want the show!

Scruffy, but safe enough.

And outnumbered to ,

Matthias.

ALLPlease?

ALLOoh!



CHILDLook out, look out!

(Laughing)

Ooh, oh, my.

Hooray!

Look out!

Behind you!

(Cheering)

(Gasping)

Stellar Lunaris, Lunar

Stellaris, he who knows all

things.

(Gasping)

Is there one Ambrose Spike here?

Aye, there is.

Keeper of the cellars,

creator of October Ale.

(Gasping)

Well, blow me down.

Well, well, the jolly old

fire jumper knows all about you,

Spike, me lad.

And is that Basil Stag Hare,

famed scout and foot fighter,

retired?

And stomach on legs?

Dashed impudent fellow.

(Laughing)

Do I hear Mrs. Churchmouse,

mother of Tess and Tim?

(Gasping)

How could he know that?

Because the lord of magic

knows all things.

A toast, a toast to the fish

catcher.

The great one of Redwall.

To Matthias the Warrior.

ALLTo Matthias the Warrior.

(Laughing)

(Groaning)

BOTHOh.

See, the stars and moon are

turning.

Like a great mandala wheel.

Spinning as the fire is burning.

What is false, and what is real?

(Moaning)

Oh, something wrong.

Yes!

(Groaning)

(Laughing)

Yes!

Yes!

(Laughing maniacally)

(Thunder booming)

Curse you, Matthias the Warrior!

Now you will feel my revenge.

Now you will understand my pain!

(Drum b*ating)

(Thunder crashing)
