ElfQuest: The Second Time Around   

History does repeat itself…

            "Uh-oh." I mumbled.

            "What's wrong?"

            "I think I'm stuck." I replied, tugging on the helmet.

            "What?" my best friend, (and soul brother) Cloudchaser, walked up next to me.  I continued to pull at the helmet.

            "What'd you do?" Cloudchaser asked, yanking on one end of the helmet.

            "I put my head in it moron."

            "I can see that.  How are we going to get you out?"

            "I have an idea."

            "What?" Cloudchaser asked.  "Dunking you head in a lake or something?"

            "Like I'll tell you." I retorted.  I mumbled something incoherent.

            "What did you just say?' Cloudchaser asked.

            "I said 'we're going to get in deep trouble.'" I repeated.

            I sent to my father, Skywise.

            **Dad!  Can you help me please!**

            **Where are you?**

            **In the armor storage room.** my face burned with embarrassment, luckily no one could see it.

            **You're not suppose to be IN there!**

            **I'm sorry.**

            "We are in VERY deep trouble." Cloudchaser mumbled.

            A few minutes later, I heard the door open.  Someone walked into the room, followed by another person.

            "Hi?" I suggested, making another pull at the helmet on my head.  I hoped the second person wasn't Cutter.

            "You're not suppose to be playing with the scared armor." My father scolded.

            "I know, I know…" I groaned.  Cloudchaser was totally silent, letting me do the talking.

            **You could help me out here.** I snarled at Cloudchaser.

            **Don't have to.  I wasn't the idiot who stuck my head in the wrong opening of a helmet!**

            **They're just like us when we were younger, Skywise.** someone sent in open sending.

            **Um, Cloudchaser?** I asked.

            **Cloudchaser is not here right now.  Please leave your pleading of help at the howl.  Thank You!**

            "**Cloudchaser!  Is Cutter out there?**

            **Yes, but considering they don't know I'M here, that's a good thing.**

            My father gripped my shoulders and Cutter held on the helmet, and they both pulled.  My head popped out easily.

            **We should have thought of that!** Cloudchaser mused, unfortunately in an open send.

            "Cloudchaser, you're in here!  Come out!" Cutter yelled as I rubbed a new bruise on my forehead.

            Cloudchaser stepped out of the shadows, smiling weakly.

            Cutter and my father stared so hard at us, I could fell their eyes on the wall behind me.  Then they busted up laughing suddenly.

            **Um, I say we leave before they stop laughing and punish us.** I suggested.

            **Good idea!** Cloudchaser agreed, and we ran out of the armory without looking back, because we would be in mondo trouble.

To Be Continued…

Colt:  Hee hee….Okay, this is mine and Logan's story.  We wrote it while playing on the trampoline, and the plot develops as we go along.  

Logan:  We don't own ElfQuest.  Can't sue us.  You won't get any money anyways.  We're BROKE.

Colt: So, have fun until we write the NEXT part!
