''This is a collab between Cornflower of Redwall and SalemtheCruel. I write the first chapter, Salem writes the next chapter, repeating throughout the story. This occurs before my story Sampetra. Enjoy.''

Chapter One: Razzin and Ublaz
Razzin and Ublaz Mad Eyes were happily married. It was perfect. No secrets, no arguments. The two were conversing about leaving Sampetra one day.

"Come on, Ublaz, I want to leave and go somewhere else. I want to capture Redwall Abbey. We could live there," Razzin whined.

"No, that's absurd. Me, a corsair, landlocked in Redwall? Besides, I have command of hundreds of rats and monitor lizards. Who will lead them if I were to leave?" Ublaz countered.

Razzin knew he had a point there. But she desperately wanted to move. Meanwhile, Ublaz was watching his soldiers. He wasn't thinking of soldiers or war, he was thinking of his first love, Dariya. Ublaz had told Razzin that he didn't love Dariya, but he visited her every night when Razzin was resting. Dariya lived at Terramort Isle and was awaiting a visit from him that night. He wrote in his journal, "It's hard being married to two ladies at the same time, but I can manage it."
