Where:
Redwall Abbey Pond after dinner
LOG:
Krisha sits by the pond, she has taken the day off, not for the best reasons but maybe at the same time for the best resons, she sighs as she skips a pebble across the pond.
Vojin carefully makes his way over and near her, stoping a short distance away
Krisha turns and studies him and frowns "What do you want...leave me alone I have the day off"
Vojin nods "I mean I...can. I did get you safely home and ..I am sure Xander will be fine...or I think"
Krisha snorts, she sighs and nods "Thank you...for the help"
Vojin nods "Your welcome....I am sure he will be fine....not sure they were gonna get him here or...keep him at Ferravale"
Matilda walks along the path to the pond, seeing a small crowd she walks over "Leave who where now?"She studies the wildcat "And..your who?"
LilyMoore comes skipping from the orchards to the pond, the sparrow Butterclaw fluttering behind her. "Oh, hey, everybeast!" She calls with a wave when she sees everyone, having arrived within earshot during a pause in the conversation. The Sparra tries to land on a log, misses, and ends up in a heap on the ground. The Bellringer hurries forward and helps him get right-side-up again.
Krisha looks over and frowns, she has the day off it seems as she looks at the pond "Maybe you can go back to Ferravale and check on Xander."
Vojin frowns "I...can send someone.The healers there can do wot they can I am sure...as I am not much of a healer" Its clear he rather not go to Ferravale, though he was there brifely a couple times as he looks at the hedgehog"Vojin Longtail....ally of the abbey not to fear."
Matilda listens as she frowns "Was..xander injuried? We do have healers here as well...."She has not heard all the news, she knows some of it."How bad is he injured?"
LilyMoore glances at the badger, having an idea of some of the things that may be going on. Butterclaw looks worried. "Xanderworm injuredhurt?" The mouse looks at the wildcat, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Wait...Vojin? Wait, you were the Ferravale Head Guard!" She gasps in recognition. They may or may not have officially met, but Lily is good friends with the Chieftain of the village, and she visits with her mother, DoraRose, a lot, so she tends to see many beasts and know their names without having actually met them.
Krisha shakes her head "Yes he was injured...fighting a group of vermin...and he is at the infirm in Ferravale."She looks at Vojin and slightly glares, she still a little moody "Were you not supposed to have a healer go there..yet you stand there and..yap" She tosses another pebble at the pond, it skips 4 times and sinks.
Vojin ears flatten and he backs up a little "I ..did say that, not like I need to lead them there and the one healer here is a bit...ummm...bossy and rude but she can go on her own or maybe another healer can go with who ever the hedgehog is." If he wants some added friends he is doing a poor job.He looks at the mouse maid "I was yes but I am sure I was replaced...I mean if they have smart sense they have a new one"
Matilda takes a deep breath"I am the champion of Redwall and no one is going anywhere alone.And my name is Matilda and if you were head guard what happen? Were you fired or something?"
LilyMoore tenses. Ooooh, she is not a fan of walking into these sorts of conversations. Not a fan AT ALL. "My great-grandmother is one of the best Healers in the region, and that's a fact, just ask any Redwaller. And I won't have you believing bad about my friend. Of /course/ Blisa found a new Head Guard....after you kind of ABANDONED the village with no warning. At least /Bandit/ took the time to help train /you/." She takes a deep breath, closes her eyes, and exhales slowly. "Could somebeast please actually give me the level-headed details before I get more grumpy? Or do I need to go to Ferravale for tha...oh, nuts, Momma may not let me," she adds in a grumble. Butterclaw preens his wing, not impressed by the wildcat's attitude. "Blisacat Chiefyworm feed catworm to snakeworm if BlisaChief angrymad," he matter-of-factly states.
Krisha tilts her head "You abandoned the village?" Ok now she is moody, even more so "I do know supposedly Xander fought and killed like 10 or so....vermin...."Wait did the wildcat? And she stands looking ready to grab the wildcat by the collar of his shirt, again..."Did you abandoned Xander to fight those vermin on his own!!" What he seems to like abandoning things if she heard right.
Vojin shakes his head "Oh calm down will you child...this group called the Blackrose was around, and me and Ferro and Xander tracked them down to find the missing badger cub..."He turns and yipes, why is he having bad luck with badgers, good grief..."No!..I mean...no I didn't...it just sort of happen and I was after the other ones who..got away..he fought and killed like...10...ummm 12..or so on his own, I didn't tell them to, and he beheaded what was clearly the one cats mate "
Matilda just backs off and watches this, yeah not interrupting this as she folds her arms over her chest "Maybe Angela or Gorvenalus can go check on Xander."She frowns a little.
The mouse scowls. "My name is LilyMoore, daughter of DoraRose, NOT 'child'. And that doesn't explain why you quit being Head Guard all those seasons ago!" She and Butterclaw shrink slightly as the badger gets mad. Oh, dear, this just got scary.... "But they have Healers in Ferravale....Nana says they're really good, actually....so why would a Redwall Healer have to go?" She's confused.
Krisha lets go of the wildcat and just goes to sit by the pond again.Quiet for now.
Vojin looks at the mouse maid "None of your business, I had my..reasons"He backs up from the badger and frowns"And yeah the healers at Ferravale are fine..I mean I not meet them" He looks at the badger as he adjust his collar some and mutters grumpy badger...I help and you get all moody.."
Matilda says, "Do not be rude to a beast here. maybe you should leave and go to Ferravale, seems you keep avoiding it, besides you can keep us updated on Xander and anything else we need to know."
LilyMoore stands up, paws curled into fists, Butterclaw tugging at her tunic hem with his beak. "It is too my business! And I'm gonna write Blisa a letter that you're back and you're a total jerk!" She's nowhere NEAR angry enough to go anything CLOSE to Bloodwrath (she basically never gets that angry these days), but if the wildcat remembers her mother, he should probably think twice before he says anything else snarky.
Krisha turns and goes to grab the wildcat by the back of his tunic and proceed to drag him to the gates, "Leave...leave now, and unless its good news or some sort of news that is important don't come back for a while and if its bad news send somebeast else!!!" She will drop him out on the road and walk back into the abbey and sits down again, some tears going down her face, its been a stressful past few days.
Vojin starts to say something, likely rude when he feels himself grabbed from behind, he claws at the ground and ends up uprooting some grass as he is dragged to the entry and a crowd watches him, least to the gates as he looks at the badger, one look says he best just back off and walk quickly towards Ferravale, yep that's best thing to do right now .
Matilda just watches as he is dragged off and the badgermother comes back on her own and stays where she is "So..well least he is..out of the abbey."She slowly walks up to Krisha.."Krisha?"
LilyMoore watches open-mouthed as Vojin is escorted out of the Abbey, Butterclaw chirping in a frightened sort of way while hiding behind her. She decides to just let the Champion deal with what just happened as the mouse tries to calm down herself.
Krisha sniffs" He wasn't very helpful...I don't think..I don't know..." She frowns " Those vermin had our daughter and.."She shakes her head, "Xander got hurt trying to get her back, and the last time I really talked to him I was mad, I was upset..told him he could stop wworry about loseing me cause he already did...and I didn't see him for the past few days, till yesterday bandaged up and in that infirm, and I don't want to lose him. I do care about him still and he thinks I don't..I was letting stress get to me and he was making it..worse at the time."
Matilda listens, "I..could have me and some others patrol, make sure the rest of the vermin left...be wise if they stayed gone..hopefully for a long while."
LilyMoore has calmed down to the point that she now walks over to the badger (ignoring Butterclaw's frantic chirping) and offers her a hug. "Is your daughter safe? I'm sure it's gonna be okay. Maybe you and Xander could talk more when he's feeling a little better?" DoraRose comes over, dressed in her black fighting outfit and carrying her sword, all sweaty and grumpy-looking. "I just heard a wildcat just got kicked out of the Abbey?" She asks the hedgehog, who is the obvious first choice of who to talk to about creatures getting kicked out of the Abbey.
Krisha frowns "No..she..she isnt ok." She seems to not go into detail.."I..I don't know..I am worried but I am needed here. He had an injuriy on his arm and leg and face, he could lose an eye maybe. Father will likely let me know"She looks at Dorarose and replies as she wipes away some tears "Vojin Longtail, he was being rude and didnt leave when asked so..I helped him leave and told him to not come back for a while unless it was good news or important news"
Matilda nods "Hello Dorarose and yeah..seems beasts know him, I don't remember meeting him before"
LilyMoore goes to hug the badger, not pressing for details. "I'm sure Ferro will let you know. And maybe we can visit him soon. I'd go with you, if I could." DoraRose scowls, absently petting Butterclaw's head as he hops over and hides behind her, obviously still worried the Badger Mother is still mad. "Oh, great. He used to be the Head Guard of Ferravale, but then he just left for no reason and with no warning," The Gatekeeper informs the Champion. "I think he left before you came. I don't remember him being rude, but if he was disrespectful enough to make you kick him out of the Abbey, Krisha, then I'll keep what you said in mind. He won't be let back in for a while unless he has news."
Krisha smiles at the hug, she nods "Yeah, he was asked and said it was none of our bussiness and he had reasons"She sighs tossing a pebble that skips two times, sinks "Least I have the day off"She is calming down now
Matilda says, "He seems to want to avoid Ferravale some reason, but maybe its just me thinking that....a beast to leave his post like that and disappear seems to lack respect"
Smiling grimly, DoraRose nods. "Um, yeah, I would think he wouldn't want to go back to Ferravale. He basically abandoned Ferravale, and Chieftain Blisa is known to have a pretty short fuse. She also has a gigantic pet snake living in her basement that she sometimes feeds beasts to. Usually on accident, but still. So it's kind of smart for him to not want to go talk to her just yet." About 6 birds all flutter down and alight on the ground around LilyMoore, chirping and tweeting. The Bellringer frowns. "Again? But I'm needed here." The birds tweet a bit more frantically, and the mousemaid sighs. "Okay, okay.....if I don't, the Friar might find out. I'll talk to you later, okay, Krisha? I'm sorry about everything that's happened. I hope it'll all turn out for the best. That's what we have to do..." and off she dashes with all her bird friends following, Butterclaw flying much more gracefully than he landed earlier. A guard comes running up and urgently whispers something to the Gatekeeper. "Oh, for the love....I'll be back! We have some trainees who excel at tying themselves in helpless knots." And off she has to run, too, to give the guards-in-training (there's literally just 2) another one of the lectures she's becoming an expert at giving....
Krisha watches as she rushes off and sighs, "Well seems I am not the only one having a bad day"
Matilda hmms and looks to the badger "Yeah.....want to do something? Anything..in the abbey or if you have the day off..in the woods."
Krisha shakes her head, "Don't feel like....anything"She frowns "Northstar...those vermin killed her ...almost killed Xander also....he needs to pull through this...he cant die too.."
Matilda gasps, ok that explains the moodyness and the grumpness "Oh...Krisha..."She thinks and lays a paw on her shoulder,"Xander is strong and will get though this. Try to not worry...." She sighs as she looks to the main abbey, smileing at an idea."Talk over some pie and greensap milk? I am sure Lacota would let us have a slice each, I smelled cheery earlier...cherry pie is good"
Krisha manages a smile and stands "Sure..sounds like a good idea."She follows the champion to the kitchen and they eat pie and drink greensap milk and then talk by the firepit and watch fireflies dance around.
