Bang...Bang...Bang...
I wake up to a loud but muffled banging sound. "Mmm..won't Thorp shut up? " The banging continues. "UUUUGH!" I yell impatiently. I get up from my bed and head to the bathroom. I open the door to see blossom laying down right smack in the middle of it. I pick her up and set her on my bed. I give her a light kiss, and continue my morning.
I open the door to hear a clearer, more louder banging. And that wasn't Thorp. I see my dad writing on the stones again. I smile and jog towards him. "Good morning little one." He says to me. "Good morning Stonekeeper." I say with a smirk. I walk through "The hall of Stonekeepers" . "Father, can I go outside?" I ask outing my hand on the ice wall between me and my "freedom". He stops what he's doing, and looks towards me. "Go ahead." He says and starts up again. I smile and run to the lever. It raises up, and I run outside. As I walked through the village, I was greeted by the villagers of course! They all knew who I was. Even the little kids.
"Ok, Meechee." Thorp says to me. "You'll be older than me in a million years." He smiles. "But that's too long!" I complain. Our father laughs at us. Suddenly, we are interrupted by a young boy about Thorps age (at the time). "Stonekeeper!" He yells while running towards us. We all look at him. "Stonekeeper! These kids are saying they found a smallfoot!" Me and Thorp look at each other. Didn't the stone say there was no such thing? "I'll be right there." Stonekeeper says. " Thorp take care of your sister. Meechee, be careful. " He walks away and into the crowd. "We've got to see what's going on!" I tell my brother. I grab his hand, and we follow Stonekeeper.
Once we get close enough, we see three little kids about my age. "Everyone listen please!" One says. "We really did find a smallfoot!" Another says. "AND we have proof!" The last one says. "Now, Now." Stonekeeper says. "Let's see what proof you have." The round, purple fur having yeti showed what looked like a small jacket. One to fit...A Smallfoot! I go closer to my father. "Daddy, what if the smallfoot..is real?" Everyone gasps. My father looks at me with fearful eyes. "Do you see what this does?! It corrupts our children's minds!" He says. Stonekeeper then takes the jacket from the purple yeti. "That's it everyone! Go back to your work!" Everybody leaves and goes back to what they were doing before. I look at the kids. They look so disappointed and frustrated. I walk towards them.
"Hey.." I start. They all look up suprised, then suspicious. "Um..did you really see a smallfoot?" The little , short boy comes up to me. "What's it to you?" He says. "I..was..uh..curious." They all look at each other. The girl with the cute ponytail speaks. "We're glad to hear you say that". She says with an enthusiastic smile. I look at her, then the two other yetis. "Why?" I finally say. " Because, we're gonna explore".
"And we need a fourth person".
