Naughty Knot
126. The Abbess has been cot by vermin. Only you can save her!
The abbess is caught. The word had spread around the entire abbey like a bad disease. "What will we do" was the reply from everybody. But Dapem knew what to do. Late on a warmish night, he went out the window with a rope. "Der" he says to himself, "I'm past da stair patwol. Now to escrape de h'abbey. Dapem slowly sneaks bytwo mice and then suddenly...CRACK. Dapem steps on a twig. "Uh-oh. Bedda find a hiding place." He looks around and sees that he's near the abbey pond, which was his intended goal in the first place. The dark otter sneakily slids in the pool when he sees Skipper crawling stealthily to where the twig was cracked. He looks around, and looks at the abbey pond, where he sees some ripples of water. Dapem had dived underwater, and was swimming to the back part near the wall. He then hears a small splash of someone diving after him. He swims faster , and finds his searches delight. A big, underwater tunnel, so big a fat, adult otter could fit through. He swims quicker, realizing he's running out of breath. He's in the dark water. When he feels he can go no longer, he spots bright moonlight coming from the watr aheadd. Using his last remaining strength, he swims to the surface. He's on the Moss River. Taking in big gulps of the precious, life giving air, he gets out of the water and hides in some bushes, knowing the vermin are near. He slowly creeps up. He sees light from a camop fire. He pushes apart some more folage, and sees the sight. The abbess is tied and gagged, back against a branch hanging over the fire, at least a 15 foot drop. There's a big, fat rat sitting against the tree, snoozing a little. There's a weasel, exhausted, in a deep sleep in front of Dapem. He see's a sling, and drawing his bow, he nocks an arrow on and crawls froward to get the sling. He grabs it and goes back in the bushes. "Guess da uder vermin are forgaring." Dapem exclaims. He slowly loads a stone into the sling, and twirls it. Wooo...Wooo...Wooo...Swoosh. Dapem lets the stone fly. He sees the leader say oww, the slump,
unconciuncess. He takes a rope from the leader and ties the other vermins paws together and gags him with his socks. "Don't wike sockers anyway" Dapem says, giggling. He then climbs the tree, which is an amazing feet, cuz have you ever seen an otter climb a tree? He bites through the ropes, and the abbess styarts falling into the fire. "Oops. Must've needed to grab her." Dapem exclaims, in shock as the Abbess falls.
"Gotcha" says Skipper as he comes out from behind a tree, leaps ove the two vermin, and catches the abbes before he goes into the fire. Skipper sets the Mother Abbess down and looks up at the tree. "Better come down, Dapem, before you fall. Jump, and I'll catch you." Dapem leaps off the branch, eyes closed. Skipper catches him. "So, when Mother Mellus finds out what you've been doing, your gonna be in trouble, trouble, trouble. But since you've save the abbess, we'll make an exception. So skipper went back to Redwall with the abbess in his arms and Dapem sleeping on his back. He chuckles, remarking "That little one'll grow up to become a fine otter, maybe even skipper. But for now, it's his dibbun days.
End.
