The Rise And Fall Of White Death

The Ark Plains

Fire stood on the rock.

"There it is. Our next greatest feat. Cross the Ark Plains."

Sawyer smirked.

"And they said there was a guard somewhere here... "

Just then, something came zipping out of the sky.

"CACAW! CACAW! Foxes, say hello to Bones-sa!"

A big condor came flying at the kits.

"Ga!"

It picked up Misty.

"Help!" She cried as the condor lifted her up into the sky.

"NOT MY SISTER YOU!" Yelled Fire. He grabbed Sawyer's bow and arrows.

"Hey!"

Fire pushed Sawyer aside.

"Where's Misty?"

"I can't see her anywhere... They went that way... I think." Sawyer pointed to the east.

Fire growled and said, "I'll shoot it out of the sky..."

The two walked until they found an old ark.

Sawyer wondered out loud, "I've never seen this before..."

Fire gave Sawyer his bow back and got out his sword.

"Sawyer. Theses plains is named after this ship. This is no old ark, this is the famous ship the coyotes made, hundreds of years ago. They used it to help the otters win the battle against the hares of islands far away."

"Wow. Now that ol' condor named Bones must live there."

Then the idea dawned on both brothers and they said, at the same time, "And he must be the guard!"

Fire smiled. He looked at Sawyer with a mischievous look in eye.

"And if that is true, I know just the way to get our little condor friend outside again."

Fire walked boldly up to the boat.

"Oh Bones! Come out, come out, come out!"

Fire smirked.

Bones shouted from somewhere inside the ship.

"Go awaya! You are nota wanta here."

Then, he heard the sounds of wings moving pots around and Misty's high, shrill voice cry out, "Fire help!"

Fire nodded to Sawyer. He quickly got out his axe and started choping at the ship.

And with a great screech, Bones flew up into the sky. Fire was ready for him this time. He shot his arrow up into the sky, and then Sawyer shot his. Fire ran into the boat, quickly he found Misty, tied to the mast. He ran over to her and untied her quickly.

"Hurry, Sawyer's distracting Bones. We gotta-"

But what they had to do what unclear. Just then, Bones's war cried interrupted Fire.

"Feathera Beadaaaaaaaa!"

Then there was a crash and Sawyer's yell.

"SAWYERRRRRRRRRRR!"

The fight sounded like a good one, but suddenly the door to the ark swung open. Bones came in, carrying Sawyer. Sawyer remained unharmed. But Sawyer's shirt however... showed signs of a struggle. It was ripped across his chest and there were many blood everywhere.

Bones laughed.

"I caught you now!"

Fire looked at Sawyer. His younger brother was crying silently.
