As Skipper watched the vermin retreating down the path he muttered, " scum." Then, leaping up, he shouted," bring a stretcher!" When the otter crew came back out, they were carrying a stretcher. Opening the gate, they lifted the ottermaid onto the stretcher. Carrying her inside, they brought her up to the infirmary where Sister Poppy was taking her breakfast as she always does. " Well, well. What happened?" she asked. " Horde of 'bout fivescore chasin' this one." replied on of the ottercrew." She fainted clean out." " Well I'll take care of her." They watched for a little while as she worked her paws over the unconciuos otter.



When she finally came to, she was lying in a bed in a strange room. There was a mouse standing a little ways away. " Where am I?" she asked. " In Redwall Abbey." She lay there, considering what the old mouse had just said. While she lay there, there was a knock on the door. " Come in." called the mouse. The door opened and a squirrelmaid about the same age as her came in.



Back at their camp, the vermin were nervous. Goldenblade had called a meeting at dusk. Every creature in the camp ecxept the slaves knew reason for this. Dusk fell. All fivescore vermin were assembled in the center of the camp. The circle around Goldenblade was almost three deep. Clearing his throat he began to speak. " You all let a slave escape. We chased her halfway and then some stupid ol' otters threw a few stones at us and you cowardly lot reatreated! I almost had her and then you all ran off like a bunch of babys." His voice rang out like steel against stone. " Huh, then who shouted retreat?" muttered a stoat. Goldenblade drew his sword and signalled to his top captain. Holding the sword infront of him he begain backing the stoat up. The top captain held his spear ready. As the two made their way through the gathering, everybeast moved out of their way.
