Kolia's eyes fluttered open and her gaze first fell upon Pepp. "Pepp, " she half smiled then she looked around half expecting to see Roask, half hoping that everything that had taken place at Redwall had been a dream. Instead she saw Vrelt. "Vrelt," she frowned. The sight of him brought everything painfully back. "I need to find Roask."

Vrelt was sitting next to Kolia his back resting against the tree, "What do you mean 'Vrelt'? What's that face for?" He was rubbing life back into one of his shoulders, which hurt after lifting Kolia, "You need to lose some weight, when I brought you to the fire you threw out my shoulder." Vrelt took the rag off her and soaked it again, then he put it back over her forehead.

"I'll loose two creatures worth in a couple months, how does that sound?" She spat back sarcastically. For a complete moron he did seem to be taking pretty good care of her. She didn't know whether to kick him or thank him.

Vrelt laughed, "Yes Kolia. I guess you will." He smiled and leaned back. Vrelt continued massaging his shoulder, "I have to admit too that I haven't lifted anything in a while, so It's not all your fault."He poured some water on the wound on his arm, where Kolia bit him, which had started to bleed again.

She sat up slowly taking the cloth from her forehead and looked at the wound she had given him and winced. "Sorry about that," she said quickly and almost to quietly for anybeast to hear. Apologies were not something Kolia gave out lightly. Then she changed the subject, "So we're going to find Roask and then what? Any ideas how we live through the encounter?"

Vrelt smiled at Kolia's apology, "I have a couple ideas, but I'm not sure I can trust the old one to know them." He narrowed his icy blue eyes at Pepp. "And if Roask tries to kill us, I now what to do for sure." Vrelt hoped Roask would see reason, but you can never tell what Roask would do.

"He wouldn't really try to kill us," she was trying to reassure herself more than anything and by 'us' she meant 'me'. "I am carrying his children after all." She had begun to think of this as something like a task she had been assigned. He had given her these precious creatures to care for and she would do so just as she would follow any order from her superior as second in command. At least that's what she was saying in her head. Her heart wanted him to love her again.

"I hope you're right." Vrelt cut off another piece of meat and began to roast it over the fire. He whispered to Kolia, "If the trail I found is from Roask, he is headed northsward. I don't know why he would go up there." Vrelt ripped another piece off his cape and he tied it around his bleeding arm.

Kolia grabbed another piece of meat without asking and bit into it raw while she thought. "What if we were able to get a hostage? That was the original plan before . . ." she stopped herself before she said, "before I got him to use my idea." Then she continued, "A hare and a squirrel left the abbey not long before we did. They seemed to be pretty important to the Abbeybeasts. If we could find them and bring one or both of them to Roask . . ." she continued thinking.

Vrelt leaned back thinking, "Once we capture them we bring them to Roask, then we could try to use the hostages to our advantage. If they won't surrender Redwall we could get my horde from Riftgard and try to take it by force." Vrelt took the roasted meat from the stick and ate still in deep thought.

Kolia raised an eyebrow at him. "Why didn't you bring a horde with you this time?" She remembered what he looked like when she first saw him in the infirmary at Redwall: pincushion with a broken ankle to boot. Seems he could have used a horde.

Vrelt shook his head, "I brought ten with me, but they didn't make it." Vrelt finished his piece of meat, "I should have taken more with me but I didn't think I needed them." He took a sip of his damson wine and leaned back, "Now it looks like I should have brought more."

Kolia laughed derisively, "They didn't make it, and you the sole survivor?" She didn't quite believe the story. "What were you up against? Did you run away?" She knew this line of questioning might anger him but she did still have his dagger, after all. At least, she thought she did. That is if he didn't search her for it while she was blacked out. But Pepp wouldn't have let him do that.
