It was already midnight.

Sky's snores echoed around Frost's cave.

But, Frost was wide awake.

' What will happen when I leave?' Frost mumbled to himself, ' Will the emperor choose a new Head Search And Rescue? Or will he not?'

Frost tossed and turned in his uneasy sleep.

' There's no point in tossing and turning in my bed, wasting my time.' Frost thought as he pulled away his covers.

Frost got out of bed and crawled out of his cave.

Uncountable stars were engraved on the sky, like crystals. The winter wind blew on Frost, making him shiver. The soft and white snow was delicately laid beneath Frost's paws, like a finely placed carpet. Trees were bare and covered by snow. The moon shone brightly, owls fluttered around, as the moon was bright, Frost only saw their silhouette.

Frost sat down.

' Okay... It's nice and dark out there... Nothing to worry about... No bad guys waiting for you... So, Frost, don't be a scaredy-leopard.' Frost soothed himself.

' Squawk! Squawk!' Someone said from behind Frost.

Frost jumped in surprise.

He turned around.

What was behind him gave him a shock.

' Sky, what are you doing here?' Frost whispered to Sky.

' Squawk, squawk.' It whispered back in return.

' Okay... okay... so you were pretending to sleep... I see...'

' Squawk!'

' No adventures tonight, we have a quest bright and early tomorrow.' Frost replied to Sky's eager question firmly.

' Squawk...'

' Ugh. Fine. Since you've been stuck underground by some emperor, I'll give pity on you. Only tonight. Don't think I'm very easy-going and able to agree on everything. I'm not that type of animal. So adventure, here we come!'

' Squawk!' Sky squawked in happiness.

They walked around, unsure of what to do.

' So... Sky, what should we do?' Frost asked.

' Squawk. Squawk squawk squawk squawk. Squawk! Squawk! SQUAWK!' Sky said.

' Okay... so you're saying there's a potion that can make macaws talk animalish? And you want to get it? And it's somewhere in the Demon's Waterfall.' Frost translated.

Sky nodded.

' But what's the point? I understand you well.' Frost listed.

' Squawk.'

' Okay... so you're curious, and you're sick of talking " Squawks" So you want to drink that potion, and become the one and only macaw that can speak animalish. And would risk your just to try. And would like to be an animal professor when you grow up. Wait... how could I get that much in just a "Squawk" ? Wow I'm good.' Frost said.

Sky nodded in agreement.

' Squawk?'

' Yeah... sure... you can have my map...' Frost mumbled as he felt for the map in his bag.

Frost passed Sky the map and watched in amazement as he studied the map.

' Squawk.'

' Yep, sure, I'll follow a macaw that can only speak "Squawks". This is not weird at all, and I'm pretty sure it's smart enough to read maps and-' Frost cut himself off when Sky glared at him.
