Lord John Roxten stepped out of the treehouse elevator. "I've broght
dinner!" He called.
Marguerite Krux came into view. "Not another raptor I hope. I couldn't stand eating it another day." Marguerite looked at Roxton with hopeful eyes.
"Well then, you'll be glad to know it's not a raptor. It's a turkey." Roxton said assuringly as he opened his thick beige bag.
Marguerite peered into the bag and breathed out a sigh of relief. "We havn't had turkey in ages. Was it hard to find?"
"Surprisingly not. There was a whole flock of them in the nearest valley. I found it very odd."
"Oh odd indeed." Challenger remarked as he stepped into the living room, where Marguerite and Roxton stood, obviously deep in thought. "Considering it's summer. They shouldn't be that close to the center of the plateau. That is quite unusal."
"What do you mean Challenger?" Veronica asked as she and Malone stepped into the room.
"Well as far as I can remember, the turkeys are as far from the center of the plateau as possible every summer. I'm not sure why, but it's true."
"Challenger's right. For my whole life, the turkeys spent the summer near the coast. I can't remember it ever being any other way."
"That is curious." Challenger thought aloud.
"Well maybe the turkeys are conspiring against us!" Malone joked, "Maybe there coming closer and closer to us so that one day they can attack us, because they know that we love to eat them."
"Ha, Ha very funny Malone," Challenger said, "This is very serious. Having the turkey's out of place can throw off the whole balance of the plateau. We may start experiencing other strange behaviours from many other animals. Our lives may be in danger."
"You've got to be kidding. Turkey's are threatening our lives? Now that's the silliest thing I've ever heard in my life." Marguerite ridiculed.
"Actually it's not silly at all. The Zanga tell a story about a time that the turkey's screwed up the whole plateau. Because of the turkey's the plateau was thrown into chaos. And it took hundreds of years to fix the mess. Maybe it's not just a story, maybe it's history. And now history is repeating itself." Veronica told her friends.
"You may be correct. The Zanga's stories have proven true time and time again. This may be a repeat of that. We've got to do something and fast. Or else our lives and all the lives on this plateau may be in danger." Challenger replied.
"Well then we have to get to work," Roxton said sounding very determined.
"What do you have in mind Roxton," Malone asked.
"We go enlist the help of some of the Zanga's and move those damn critters one by one to the farthest part of the plateau away from the center." Roxton said.
"That may just work," Challenger said, "Let's get to it then."
So they grabbed their guns and some other tools they may need and went to explain to the Zanga's what they were up to.
