Overlord's Orders: Holiday Special

[Skipper]

Lord Gorath that was not me, I saw the police throw an inflatable otter filled with stones at you as I was knocked unconcious.

[DanielofRedwall]

Daniel cleared his throat. He had stayed silent for a while, but decided to now speak. "My Lord, I did indeed trip Redwaller and stamped on the turkey dish you had ordered, but within reason. I saw that the beavers had slipped the liquid content of a vial on to the turkey dish. I presume they were hoping to poison you, as I recognized the clear liquid that was running in to the food as beaver poison. This is highly poisonous and can kill you in a mouth-full. Of course, the only way to get rid of such poison is to stamp on the food, as you know, oh great master. So, I did so, for yours and Redwaller's sake, whom I happened to overhear muttering to himself about eating the food himself in stead of you. I knew you wouldn't have eaten the food after I stomped on it, so I would have liked to go back to the butcher and ask him if he could have re-made the dish for you, but unfortunately we were ushered away to the police thanks to the actions of Gorath and Leatho, which were previously mentioned. I would have taken this back to you and paid for it with my own money, but I never got the chance. I apologize." Having spoke his piece, Daniel bowed his head and fell silent.

[Leatho Shellhound]

"Your Lordship, I didn't have a stick, and since I didn't have a stick I didn't brake the glass. Redwaller broke the glass by falling into it when he was bumped by DanielofRedwall who was jumping on the turkey because of the beaver poison.
Than Tam and Martin took all the turkeys away because HIAG was shooting them. Tam and Martin lost the turkey when he was shot by a dart by the police.
I was about to get a new turkey and other dishes when I triped over skipper and Tiria and fell in a river. I fell down a waterfall and landed in a swimming pool. A human saved me from drowning but took me to a zoo....I was locked up there till I was delivered by your amazing self. So I now stand before you humble, ready to do any service for you when ever you wish, 24/7."

The Overlord looked out over his servants. His gaze wandered from one to another, obviously signalling any further delay of punishment was at an end. He liked to see victims squirm at their fate, but servants were not victims-they were investments. Having silenced them all just from his gaze, he turned his eyes hastily to his control panel. For a few minutes, the room was completely quiet except for the clicking of buttons and flickering lights. He broke the silence abruptly.
"You all are failures. I am not disappointed, I never expected anything else. But one of you is far to unuseful in missions-and if I can get anything, it is usefulness. Lord Gorath, perhaps you'd like to wipe that green slime off your shoes?"
Puzzled, Lord Gorath looked down to see what the Overlord was talking about. As he did so, a pulse fired from the ceiling. The servant vanished instantly.
"Off with all of you. Sleep, then report back for a new assignment."

The Overlord met his servants in his throne room the next morning. He began outlining his assignment: "I need something, and that is a promise of death-defying beaver non-interference to reach Earth. Afterall, I can hardly count on a single beaver friend of mine to secure all his kind peace towards me over the month. So get a pact. Offer them some very uneatable apples. They'll be defying death to get them from your hands. You'll get teleported from the sphere to a friend of mine's ship, a general at that, who will then warp you to the beaver's newest spaceship, the Qiolaputerugihyertdasdaziminopoloisk. And do not look directly into the general's eye! And since his body is entirely an eye, that should be very difficult. So just don't look around at all aboard his ship. And if you see a green sphere, you've spotted him. This is not good for you, but if your own vision gets over its blurriness and your eyes stop burning after a few hours, then you'll probably still maintain your sight.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


A day later, the Overlord looked out over his servants. "Well, the general reported you were smart enough not to ever look at or interact or notice him. He'll be a mystery to you. But explain why you brought back a tourist with you. What is he doing here? I don't want a new servant. I wait to replenish when a whole batch of yourselves has been expelled. After you're finished explaining him, I'll teleport him to some galaxy. In the meantime, would DanielofRedwall please pull him off my newest cow portrait?"

Well, We were teleported to the spaceship and found ourselves knocked out and sent to a prison cell. When I woke up, The apples had been taken away from us. Then I got up and went to the door, I looked out and leaned on the door. Next thing I knew I found myself on the ground with the door under me.I was about to go look for the apples when HIAG looped a rope around me and tied me to the wall. Then he took an AC device(Appearance Changer) and changed himself into a beaver and went away mixing with other beavers.

[Taggerung_of_Redwall]

The Overlord broke in. "And did any of you ever get close to obtaining an audience or a pact? And I'd love to know how good ole Agent Bliny o' Wasp or whoever he is got here? Pick him up while stealing appearance changing devices?"

[DanielofRedwall]

"This guy is HIAG's fault, I'm afraid," said Daniel, shaking his head. "Pretty much he is HIAG's friend from Scotland. HIAG insisted on him tagging along, despite our objections. We tried getting rid of him numerous times, but we never managed to without HIAG finding out.
"Now, about the pact. I did get awfully close. I was just in the middle of making an agreement when Tiria pushed me aside and started speaking in French. I happen to know some French, so I also know that what she was saying was not nice at all. I won't be repeating it. So, we were kicked out, and no pact was made, unfortunately, thanks to Tiria."

[Skipper]

'I was there when it happened but Daniel obviously left out the part where he  threw a couple of runny eggs at the DDB's for ordering him about and blamed it on me, they bound me up tightly and tied me to HIAG's friend. I only managed to break free from the extra tough rope by leaning over a fire which burnt most of the fur on my left side.'

[Redwaller]

i saw it too. And I also saw Skipper picking up a hot bit of wood and throw it at DanielofRedwall. Which was unfortunatly intersepted by a DDB walking in front of it, so thanks to Skipper and DanielofRedwall we found ourselves hanging upside down with DDBs prodding at us with sharp sticks.

[DanielofRedwall]

"My Lord, I was holding the eggs on my lap. They were a present from the DDB, you see, to make egg roles with. Suddenly, as Tiria had her... Episode, Skipper went and threw the wood. While it was intersected, the beaver fell back on to me. I was standing up, just about the shake hands (also trying to push aside Tiria and cover her mouth), when this happened. It caused me to fall forward and drop the eggs, which splattered over the DDB and got us tied up. So, I have a reason to blame Skipper. I can only imagine what would have happened if I fell straight forward on top of the beavers."

[Skipper]

I was throwing the wood to Daniel, you see there was a fire near him and it was running low so I threw the wood to him so that he could keep it going, I never realised the wood was hot because I had been sanding next to a drafty spot when I was tied to the DDB and I had been rubbing my hands together after we got free so my hands were pretty warm, plus I had stuck my hands onto a heater and then put gloves on, it was Redwaller who passed me the wood.

[Taggerung_of_Redwall]

OOC: Awaiting Tira, HIAG, Leatho and T&M inputs. Everyone else is still welcome to post, of course.

The Overlord shook his head. "Egg rolls! Egg rolls! How I have forgotten about them!"
He composed himself after this outburst, and cast a stern gaze over the servants. "Am I to suppose that you have egg rolls still? Nevermind it. I'll get them later-they'll be handy for what is to come. Now, please, you silent servants, share some more details. I still want to know as much as possible about the mission from any of the seven of you, though, to make a fair judgment. I like to be fair, when it doesn't inconvenience me. I might be having one of my mandatory virtue session talks soon which you all will be invited to."

[Redwaller]

I passed the wood to Skipper so he would put it on the fire. Not throw it at Daniel!

[Skipper]

Well how was I supposed to know? You just passed it me and didn't say a word so I threw it to Daniel since he was much nearer.

[Redwaller]

I didn't say a word because each time I spoke, A DDB prodded me with a sword.
