01x08 - Battle Plans

Post by bunniefuu »



MARTINI am that is.

My sword shall wield for me.





Presumptuous blighter,

camping right under our noses.

So close, and yet so far, eh

what?

ConstanceIt shows Cluny

knows the exact range of our

weapons, to the inch.

Look at them, running around

down there.

When it comes down to it,

Cluny's the only real enemy.

I mean, the rest of them would

be lost without him.

If our weapons had just a

little more range.

(Hammering)

I'll need a yew sapling from

the Abby orchard.

What in the name of the

seasons are you doing, mum?

Matthias is right.

We need to rid the Abbey of

Cluny the Scourge forever.

(Scoffing)

(Groaning, whining)

(Screaming)

(Groaning)

(Screaming)

(Groaning)

(Screaming)

(Gasping)

(Panting)

(Growling)

Get away from me, you ugly

scum!

Away!

(Groaning)

You and all the ghostly

warriors that haunt me!

Away, or I'll gut you.

He's cracking up.

You couldn't k*ll him, eh?

(Scoffing)

You're just another lying

coward.

Shut up!

I'm going to do it.

(Retching)

I promise ya.

We'll eat proper, mates.

By this time tomorrow, I will be

your new leader and there will

be fresh cheese for all!

(Panting)

Come on.

Constance needs this fast.

I'm tired of all this

fighting.

When will it stop, Matthias?

When I get Martin's sword.

Even if you find this

serpent, Asmodeus, how will you

k*ll it?

I don't know.

I'd be scared to death.

I am.

(Tower bell ringing)

Well, time to feed the

guards.

I suppose everyone fights a

battle in their own way.

I know you'll be brave,

whatever happens.

I'll try.

(Grunting)

You dare follow me?

Redwaller's...

New w*apon...

Spit it out, ferret.

They're building a new long

ranged w*apon.

You are their target.

And that's not all.

There's talk in the camp about a

takeover.

Who?

Treason.

Cheesethief!

In my tent, now!

Cheesethief, your work lately

has been surprising.

Thanks, Chief.

And I think you deserve to be

rewarded accordingly.

Oh, thanks, Chief!


You're my only loyal

lieutenant.

I'm going to personally organize

the next as*ault today and I'm

leaving you in charge.

Thanks, Chief.

Right, Chief.

I'm in charge.

(Laughing, scoffing)

Darkclaw, come!

You, Bang Bang.

Find Killconey.

Tell him to, uh, get on with his

spying.

(Mumbling)

When I'm in charge, you'll do it

now!

(Groaning)

(Laughing)

Something's happening down

there.

Double the guard.

Constance, you're a genius!

Brilliant!

Jolly nifty idea all around, eh

what?

Let's keep the target to

ourselves for now.

Good plan.

Don't wants to raise the hopes

of the civilians, eh what?

No, it's the Abbot.

He won't like it.

Ah, right you are.

Let's give it a test run, then.

(Grunting)

(Snapping)

(Swooshing)

Oh, not far enough.

Not yet.

Foremole says the listening

tunnels are off to a great

start.

How's the crossbow coming along?

Hmm.

Needs more stability to absorb

the recoil.

(Cheering)

Hush!

Sorry, but I say, that's done

it!

Faster you lazy rabble!

(Chopping, hammering)

Those Redwallers are hauling

a big crossbow to the top of the

wall, Chief.

Go tell Cheesethief to

memorize my battle plan.

They're in my tent.

Pardon, Chief?

Do it!

(Groaning)

Do I have to do everything

myself?!

(Roaring)

We'll only surprise them

once, chaps, so we better make

it count.

Looks like sunset will make the

perfect position.

He wants you to look at the

battle plans, to see if he's

forgotten anything.

Finally I'm being appreciated

for what I truly am.

Out of my way!

Two degrees left.

(Chuckling)

(Whistling)

Put your back into it, you

lousy, sloth born excuse for a

crew!

Now, or I'll hang you from the

yardarm!

(Chuckling)

(Munching)

(Laughing)

(Groaning)

Got him!

(Tower bells ringing)

So, Cluny is dead?

Yes.

(Sighing)

The loss of even that vile life

diminishes us all.

(Coughing)

Strictly m*llitary

observation:

With Cluny dead, horde scatters,

Redwall resumes peaceful ways,


duty done, what?

Need to be fair, don't you know?

You are right.

Indeed, we owe you our

gratitude, Constance.

Please take the double guards

off the wall.

With respect, father, perhaps

the guards should remain until

the rats actually leave.

Agreed.

Something's not right.

Now that this scourge has

been removed, I am anxious to

return to normality.

Please, remove the guards.

Go to the kitchens, Matthias,

and ask Friar Hugo and

Cornflower to begin

preparations.

Redwall deserves a celebration

to mark the end of this terrible

time.

There will be a feast, a feast

of forgiveness.

(Cheering)

Today's the day!

Redwall is saved!

This will be the best feast

ever!

Thanks.

That's the last of them.

Cornflower?

I can't take in that it's all

over.

I'm not sure what I should feel.

Relief.

Now I can concentrate on getting

Martin's sword.

Do you have to?

Now that Cluny's dead?

Redwall will never be save

until Martin's sword is back

where it belongs.

Now I guess I'll never know

if I could have been brave.

So perish all traitors.

Somebody get my w*r clothes off

that mess in my tent!

Cheesethief was plotting against

me with Redwall spies!

That arrow was meant for me!

Does anyone else dare to out

think Cluny?

Victory is ours!

Cluny the Scourge will be in

Redwall tonight!

Aren't you glad that it's all

over?

Cluny's death will end the

siege.

I'm not so sure.

They're not leaving.

Something's wrong.

But what?

All right, you useless

flotsam, do it!

(Whip cracking)

The idiots think I'm dead.

They'll think different when I

tear out their hearts at

midnight.



(Cheering, laughing)

We will observe a moment of

silence for those who have

fought, on both sides.

Thank you all for your patience

and sacrifice during our time of

troubles.

Let us lift our glasses to a new

era of peace and harmony at

Redwall Abbey!

To Redwall!

BOTHTo Redwall!

(Cheering)

Let the feasting begin!



BASILHip, hip!

BOTHHooray!

BASILHip, hip!

BOTHHooray!

BASILHip, hip!

BOTHHooray!

Dangerous with almost

everyone inside.

No eyes.

The abbot told you to reduce

the guard, but he didn't say

anything about the listening


tunnels.

Basil, you and I will take

quick turns doing rounds.

Everything quiet?

I'll reckon them rotten

varmints be a sleeping or

eating, maybe.

Oh, but we'd bend over and give

them Old Harry if ever they

showed their heads!

I have to get back before the

Abbot misses me.

(Whistling)

Ha!

I thought you'd all like some

soup.

Oh, thank ye kindly.

We be a missing the food, like.

Nothing like hot vegetable soup

to keep in life in us moles.

Careful, it's very hot.

Now listen, you lot, they're

not trained K*llers in there.

They'll be easy meat.

But, if any of you disobey my

orders, will be as dead as them.

(Gasping)

Now, you two, advance.

Signal the all clear for the

rest of us.

(Cracking, groaning)

(Gasping)

(Laughing)

Redwall to me!

(Screaming)

(Grunting, screaming)

(Gasping)

Rats!

Rats on the wall!

(Grunting)

(Screaming)

(Roaring)

But, you're, you're dead!

(Laughing)

No, you're dead!

I'll fight to my last breath

for Redwall, rat!

(Roaring)

(Rope snapping)

DARKCLAWWe'll save you,

Chief!

You blundering fools!

(Screaming)

(Groaning)

You will pay!

Whew.

Cornflower!

We saw the flames.

You, useless imbeciles!

First volley, fire!

(Cheering, roaring)

Too dark and too far.

Save your arrows.

Well, you were tested.

Now you know how it feels to be

brave.

It feels scary.

Your have the spirit of a

warrior, my dear.

Brave as they very well come!

Well done!

(Giggling)

Thank you.

I'm still shaking.

Well, missy, I'd be asking

with there be anymore of that

vegetable soup left?

No, but I'll soon find some

more.

Get away you vermin!

(Laughing)

I knew that was too easy.

It was a top hole idea, old

thing.

Almost gots the blighter!

To defeat Cluny, I must get

the sword.

That's what all this means.
