While the Badger father is away, the DAB decides to play, and Karth gets stuck in the middle of it.....

SCENE: Redwall Abbey. Near the walls outside

LOG:
Karth is sitting on the steps to the wall tops and looks bored. then sometimes when its quiet that's a good thing and other times it is not. The dibbun Atvi seems to decide it's too quiet as he walks over to the otter and stares at him.

Kenya has keep out of trouble for a few days so far. She just finished helping to carry sheets and towels back in from washing and drying and then decides to wander outside as the days are warmer and it's a good mostly sunny day. Upon seeing Atvi and Karth she walks over there "What ya doing?"

It is too quiet. Much too quiet. Especially when you take into consideration how many Dibbuns inhabit the Abbey. A group of them is now coming from the direction of the orchards carrying tiny bundles. Many of them have blankets tied on to resemble cloaks, and a couple are wearing pots on their heads. At the front is Squirrelbabe, ringleader of the Dibbuns Against Bedtime. They come up to the sea otter and stop, and the leader wrinkles her nose at him, shoving the pot on her head back so it doesn't cover her eyes anymore. "Hia. Do you knows where Papa Ozzie is? We wants ta visit him." The rest of the Dibbuns nod in agreement.

Karth looks at the dibbuns "No...and what is with all the He waves his paw around and frowns "Stuff...some silly dibbun game ?"

Atvi blinks and looks at Karth "Yeah Papa Oz like went..ummm where he go?"

Kenya looks over at the group and listens, "Papa Oz is...ummm away 2 weeks at some hall place" She forgot the name of the place mentioned, then she was busy at the time sampleing cake and trying to put some cake down another visiting dibbuns back.

Squirrelbabe scowls, as do some of the Dibbuns with her. "We no silly! We gonna goes on a trip and visits Papa Ozzie! It norra game!" She emphasizes the last word with a stamp of her foot. A ferret Dibbun pipes up and says, "Can you show us da way?" "O' at weast opens da gates fow us? Miss 'Wose won't," adds a mouse, her brown eyes wide as she looks innocently, adorably, and pleadingly into the sea otter's face.

Karth cross his arms and stands up now as he looks at the dibbun and says one simple word "No..." He then dusts off his pants legs and stays in front of them as that seemed easy enough "Now go....play by the pond or something."
Atvi seems to dislike that answer and snorts, he starts to kick the otter's leg and then backs up at the last second deciding it's not worth it.

Kenya says, "The pond is super boring and you get cold if stay too long and it messes up my fur"

Squirrelbabe's scowl deepens considerably. "You bad! We norra /wanna/ pway by da pond! We wants to see Papa Ozzie!!" She goes to kick the otter in the shin, and a couple of stale scones come flying out from the crowd behind her, heading straight for the adult's face!

Karth holds up an arm and avoids the scones but not the kick as he takes a deep breath and closes his eyes and then opens them again, "Go away" Is all he says, it seems he is not that good with dibbuns.

Atvi just sits on the ground and watches, this could get interesting

Kenya frowns "You are not the boss..only Papa Oz and Sister Ginny....and the abbot" Yes the abbot is in charge of all.

Squirrelbabe gasps and goes to kick the adult again. The rest of the Dibbuns go to circle him. The guards on top of the wall look down, then go back to their jobs of watching outside the Abbey. They are not getting involved. "We norra go aways!" The Ringleader screeches. "You a big meanie! GET 'IM!" A couple of the DABers pull out a rope from somewhere while all the squirrels try to pounce on the sea otter! A young gosling named Grace hugs her blue blankie close, eyes wide. She looks more frightened than angry.

Karth rolls his eyes and the frowns as he is surrounded "Oh no dibbuns I should sooooooo run" He says in a sarcastic voice and then seems to regreat what he says quickly as this is like....how many dibbuns and he just turned his back on them and started to walk away, picks up and moves like one and gets like....a few feet before he is knocked down by the team work of the dibbuns. "HEY!"
Atvi grins and joins in the fun "Hee hee....you fell downs"

Kenya blinks and frowns "We could...get into trouble for this..."Why is she worried she could just leave and pretend she saw nothing

Squirrelbabe bounds away from the chaos as some of the older Dibbuns start trying to tie the otter's paws together while the rest of the Dibbuns (except for the gosling, who is trembling as she watches) try to hold him still. Pointing at the vole and says, "Hold his eaw still! Hurry, we needs him asa captive to twy and get Papa Ozzie back!" Turning to the Dibbun sea otter, she wags a finger at her. "We norra gets in twouble if you no tells! Now help us, or I'll put ANTS in you bed!" Because threats are always the best course of action. Yeah. This is why Squirrelbabe has like no friends.

Karth tries to resist the idea of kicking a dibbun but he does let a cuss word ...or two...slip as he gets a paw free and then fails as two paws are tied and he glares at the dibbuns "Ok this is enough you're all being very bad and should be put in a corner or...or some quiet place in the abbey!"

Atvi frowns and then takes off his boot, then his extra smelly sock and grins as he waits and then at the right moment stuffs it into Karth's mouth and smiles. "He will be quiets now"

Kenya frowns, there is no way she wants ants in her bed "Umm...I will just sit down" She is not sure how to help, she frowns at the sock and makes a face feeling sorry for the otter now.

Squirrelbabe nods approvingly at the vole. "Good tinkin'! We make a DABer outta you yets!" The Dibbuns all growl at the adult, then try to tie up his other 2 paws. The Ringleader declares, "An' dens we /dwag/ him into da Gatiehousie and shtuffs him ina closet!" The other Dibbuns cheer at that idea! Except for the gosling, who sits beside the otter Dibbun. Sniffling, she says, "I norra wanna be heres. Why dey so /bad/?"

Karth struggles to get loose and snorts.Also the sock tastes rather bad as he tries to figure out how to spit it out and it seems to not work. If these were vermin he would kick at them. He just glares and decides he hates dibbuns more than vermin and vows to himself to stay the heck away from them after today.

Atvi frowns "Buts the gatehouse he be founds by the gatekeeper....."

Kenya sighs and just stands there silent, she looks around and frowns as most of the grown ups are elsewhere right now.

Squirrelbabe pauses. "You right! Oooh, to da pond! He wants us'ns over dere anyways, right!" The other DABers echo agreement and begin to try and drag the adult over to the pond. Hopefully they won't drown him on accident! Grace the gosling looks up at the sea otter Dibbun. "Whats do yous think we should /do/? If we tells, we gets mud in ouw beds!"

Karth snorts and makes that mppphhhhhhhh sound as with teamwork the dibbuns can drag him off towards the pond.
This is where Atvi thinks a little and frowns "But what we do by pond?"

Kenya frowns "I...I don't know...Abbot is not within sight and no other adult seems to think this is bad"

Squirrelbabe walks ahead of her cohorts confidently. "I figure dat out whens we gets there!" The Dibbuns continue to do their thing, and a guard walks away from his post towards a female mouse wearing black and holding an axe. Grace looks up at the guards. "Some adults /scawed/ of da DAB!" As the otter Dibbun sneaks off, the gosling thinks for a minute, then goes to laboriously climb the steps up to the wall....where Dibbuns aren't allowed.

Karth frowns now, this can't be good...not at all as he thinks himself maybe he needs to train more as to avoid this next time, he snorts again and almost gags as the sock starts to get to him and coughs.
Atvi just nods "Yeah we will figures out...right?"

Squirrelbabe nods, smiling. "Rights. We'w figure it out." The Dibbuns finish dragging their captive to the pond and they all flop to the ground. Pulling him over here was hard work! As they all gasp dramatically, the Ringleader turns to the vole. "Whaddaya tink? Hide him in da rushies? Give him a baff? Wha?"

Karth just looks at the dibbuns and rolls his eyes.
Atvi seems to think and then grins "We gives him bath and then makes him look pretty!"

The other Dibbuns agree, and Squirrelbabe nods. "Good ideas! Into da watew wif 'im!" The Dibbuns eagerly try to roll the sea otter into the water! Meanwhile, Grace the gosling has made it to the top of the wall! Looking down, she cringes. It's so high up! Why are walls so tall? The goose begins to tremble. She looks scared. But she's a bird! Why would a bird be afraid of heights?!

Karth is rolled into the shawallows and shakes his head a little as he gets wet, not that he is worried as he is an otter and they are fine in water.
Atvi smiles "This will be so so so fun!"

Yes, but are otters fine in the water when they're tied up? We shall see. Squirrelbabe observes as they try to shove him into the water up to his chin, then says, "Do you fink we should use soap?" "I broughtsome!" They all glare at a petite mouse, who is holding up a bar of soap. Blushing, she looks away sheepishly. "I fought Papa Ozzie would like it." Squirrelbabe scowls, takes the soap, and gives it to the vole. "Hewe, you can swims, right? You suds 'im up!" The Dibbuns, cackling with glee, start splashing in the water, getting soaking wet and sending waves over the otter's head as they do so.
Meanwhile, Grace hasn't moved from her spot on the wall, and is frozen, staring at the ground far below. A shadow falls over her, and a gentle paw strokes her head. "What are you doing up here, little one?" DoraRose gently asks. "Dibbuns aren't allowed up on the walls, not even if they're birds." Grace looks at the Gatekeeper's face, then hugs her and bawls...

Karth coughs as water sinks into his nose and mouth and the sock...becomes worse as he now struggles as he is all made like a bubble moster basically , even his outfit is covered in bubbles but the waves do let the sock get out as he vomits a little and coughs, well least the dibbuns wash that off as well.
The vole makes a face and goes to wash, or try to, wash out the otters mouth and is rewarded with more coughing and a little gagging.

Squirrelbabe watches from the shoreline. "Yeah, dat's wight, wash his mouf out! He said bad words!" The young ferret repeats them, and the Ringleader says, "Yeah, so we's needsta teach 'im a lesson!" The other Dibbuns start to try to scrub at the otter's clothes with sticks. Up on the wall, Gracie is bawling out what's going on, telling DoraRose everything. The Gatekeeper frowns, then picks up the goose. "Well, I'm not surprised that Karth made the DABers mad at him. C'mon, let's go see what they're doing to him..." and she heads down the wallsteps.
