Mark and Will walked out of Varrock and started for the lumber yard. When they got there they walked into a building.

"You can come out, it's Mark and Will" Mark said.

More ratty looking kids came out. There were about 70 of them, and more in the rest of the buildings. They were all skinny, like Mark and Will. Some were tall, some were small, but they were all skinny.

"So, Mark, did you get any food?" one said, coming up to him.

'No, Palmer, but we did find out something."

Palmer had light brown hair, cut short, no shirt and torn pants. He unsheathed an iron dagger. He tackled Mark and held the dagger up to his throat. Some other's took out spears and swords and surrounded Palmer.

"You promised, as our leader, to bring us food and drink everyday." he said.

Mark punched him and stood up.

"I know, but I said I found something out."

Palmer got up.

"What did you find out?" he said, wiping blood from his nose.

"The 'King' just sent out a third of his army with scouts to find some soldiers. And thanks to our friends in Morytania we've found out that Zamorak's forces are coming to attack Misthalin. And maybe even Asgarnia and Kandarin. Will and I rushed back as soon as we could. That's why we don't have food."

"So what are we supposed to do?"

"We send scouts. Since we've befriended the dwarfs we don't have to go over White Wolf Mountain and risk the cold and being attacked by wolves. Jesse, Boone. Grab your weapons and head off to warn the others. Jesse go warn them in Asgarnia. Boone go to Kandarin."

Jesse had black hair and was one of the few without a torn shirt, but had torn pants. Boone had brownish-red hair and had a torn tank top and shorts. Jesse grabbed a bronze longsword and Boone grabbed a bow and iron arrows. They ran off with little provisions and hopped the fence.

"Palmer and Will, come with me. We'll send a signal to tell you when to come."

Palmer grabbed an oak bow and bronze arrows.

"How will we know when to come?" someone asked.

"Palmer will shoot an arrow into the sky. And to make it seem lighter we'll set it on fire. Rouse the others and tell them to get ready."

They ran off for Varrock, and when they got to the gate they had to find out how to get in.
