Yesterday Tangle came to me and told me she wanted help planning the feast in four days, so I agreed to help her.
First thing I did was gather six dibbuns together to help me. I had the first dibbuns in charge of getting the tables ready and decorated. Her name was Talon the sparrow. The second dibbuns was put in charge of arranging all the food on the table. Her name was Kara the otter. The third dibbuns was in charge of organizing the drinks. She was to get dibbuns to raid the cellars. Her name was Moonbeam the church mouse. The fourth dibbuns was in charge of getting all the foods from the kitchens to the room we were using for the feast without being noticed. His names was Blackpool the otter. The fifth dibbuns was in charge of making sure everyone knew about the feast. His name was Yellowclaw the good wildcat. The sixth dibbun was in charge of bringing me the other five dibbuns repots because they weren’t allowed to do anything that I didn’t approve of. His name was Starbuck the hare.
So the next thing I had all my captains do was write up their plans. They would hand them into Starbuck who immediately brought them to me. I read through them all and changed some things. When I was done fixing the reports, I signed them so the captains could give the orders for them. After Starbuck had left to deliver the repots to my other captains, I looked around me. It was already dark outside, and dinner was fixing to start in the Great Cavern. Normally, I would have gone to hide just to make Mother Mellus mad, but since I was a little tired after the days work, I decided to just go downstairs quietly.
After dinner, I went to give Tangle a final report. I read over the notes I had made while reading the captains reports to give Tangle an overview of what we were going to do. When I was done she seemed quite pleased so I went back to my dormitory and went to bed without any trouble. I think Mother Mellus was very suspicious of me, but I didn’t care.
The next morning I woke up pretty late. Starbuck was staring at me nervously. “Whattttt?” I asked while yawning.
“We have a problem” Starbuck told me.
“Show me.” I told him, now worried. I threw on a habit and followed him up to the room we were planning on using for the feast. The entire room was covered with feathers.
“What happened?” I screamed.
“Last night after you went to bed there was a huge pillow fight. Luckily, none of the elders found out and we were able to stop it when we told them that we were going to use this room for the feast, but none of them would stay to help clean it up.” Starbuck told me.
I sighed. ”Gather half a score of dibbuns and have them clean this up.” I told him.
“ Yes Goldenstripe. I put your reports in your nest.” Starbuck told me. “I’ll come by to pick them up in a bit.
I nodded to him and left to go up the stairs. I went up two flights of stairs where I went down the hallway and ducked behind a tapestry of Redwall. There was a small tunnel that climbed upward. I went through it and as I was crawling along new tunnels began to breech out from the main on, each covered by a tapestry. When I came to a tunnel covered by a tapestry of Lord Brocktree. I went inside and climbed up a large rope. When I got through the hole the rope came out of, I stood up and walked over to my torch, lit it, and looked around. This was my personal den. Tangle had given it to me a while ago. I hade a small desk, a few torches, a small bag of CCs, and a nest. I walked over to my nest and found five pieces of parchment. I laid down in my nest and read all the reports. When I had finished that I sat down at my desk and wrote authorizations to the reports.
When I was finished writing, stopped by the feast room to check on it and was surprised
I to see that it was halfway done cleaning. I ran into Starbuck in the Great Cavern. I handed him my reports to deliver back to the captains and went to check on their progress personally.
I found Blackpool (who was in charge of getting all the food) outside talking to two dibbuns. From what I gathered as I drew nearer to them, Blackpool was going to get these two dibbuns to pick as many strawberries as they could without being caught.
“How’s it going?” I asked Blackpool.
“We’re doing great. I’ve got the rest of my group back near the kitchens jumping in and out to steal food when no one’s looking. We’re sending it up to the feast room.” Blackpool gave me a sideways glance, with a small grin on his face. “I saw what happened in there. It looked like the inside of a pillow.”
“Huh” was all I said back to him.
The rest of the next two days were spent with me checking the progress of my captains, reading reports, and talking with Tangle.
When I woke up the day of the feast, dawn had just come and sleepy dibbuns were meandering around the dorm. I spotted Starbuck in a corner and walked over to him.
“Everything all right?” I asked him remembering the pillow fight incident.
“Yeah, wit all the preparing we’re doing, this is going to be a grand feast. I hope everything turns out right.” Starbuck told me.
“I’m sure it will.” I told him, trying to sound cheerful.
The rest of the day I was running around the feast room and making sure the elders didn’t find out about our feast. At dinner all the dibbuns snuck up to our feast room. As the dibbun walked into the room, a gasp went up through the dibbuns. The room was filled with food and shouting dibbuns. Tangle signaled for me to come over to where she and the dorm leaders were talking.
“This place looks great!” She told me “I can’t believe what a good job you did!”
“Well, I had a lot of help from my captains and their teams.” I told her while blushing.
“But still,” said one of the dorm leaders” Would and of this have happened if it weren’t for you?”
I blushed deeper as some of the other dorm leaders murmured in agreement.
“This is going to be a great feast.” Tangle told me.
