CHAPTER SIX
While Mrs. Howell blew on the conch shell Ginger and Mary Ann were red in the face and whispering to each other while Gilligan still lay on the ground with his paws covering his eyes.
"This is so embarrassing!" Gilligan whimpered.
"Look at it this way mate!" Aiden began. "You're a whole lot different now than when you're human!"
"That's easy for you to say!" Gilligan began as he sat up. "Your parts are on the inside!"
Eugene and Aiden chuckled as Iona gave them a stern look as several things happened at once. Mrs. Howell stopped blowing the conch shell just as Sandy, Sam, and Rudy joined them. Ginger stood up as Mary Ann sat down with them and Gilligan could swear that he heard the Skipper, the Professor, and Mr. Howell shout in the distance. He raised his ears as the wind picked up and could smell the strong bitter copper smell of blood along with his friends' smells along with bad salt and old grass. That could only mean one thing. Head Hunters. He could tell that his animal friends were hearing and smelling the same things. He instantly had an idea. Sam screeched and flew off. Gilligan barked at Mrs. Howell, Ginger, and Mary Ann to get their attention.
"What's wrong?" Ginger asked looking into the trees.
"Did they hear our call?" Mrs. Howell asked.
Gilligan looked at Mary Ann then nodded over to Eugene, Iona, and, Aiden. Aiden picked up a stick pointed to his head then wrapped his wings around Eugene and Iona. Then Gilligan looked back at the girls and barked.
"They've have been captured by head hunters!" Mary Ann gasped jumping up.
"Good heavens what do we do?" Mrs. Howell exclaimed.
Gilligan barked as several birds led by Sam flew out of the jungle and into all of their huts. After a few seconds they all flew back out with several sheets. Then Gilligan hopped up onto the table and stuck his face into one of the pies. When he straightened up cream was smeared all around his mouth making him look rabid. He looked at them then at the pies then into the jungle. The girls understood what he meant.
"Right come on we have to hurry!" Mary Ann replied as they each grabbed a pie and followed Gilligan and the other animals into the jungle.

After the Katubi ambushed them they tied them to poles then gathered around and talked amongst themselves. They pointed to the Skipper shook their heads then they smiled maniacally and pointed to the Professor and laughed.
"Professor what are they saying?" The Skipper grunted as he struggled to free himself.
"They um wanted to kill you first," the Professor began as he became pale. "But decided to do me first so that you'll be easier to kill!"
"Egads!" Mr. Howell replied trying to squirm free.
"Not on my watch they won't!" The Skipper growled trying to break free but froze as the Katubi began walking towards them with their machetes raised and smiling maniacally.
Then at that moment the entire jungle erupted with screeching and howling. The Katubi jumped as Aiden landed in front of them and stretched his neck with his mouth open and pushed his bottom beak against the bend in his neck so that his pouch turned inside out. The Katubi's eyes widened and gasped as the dog jumped out of the bushes growling with white foam covering his mouth as several sheets started flying around them. Then Eugene and Iona hopped out of the bushes with socks on their heads making them look like they had no heads.
Lastly the girls climbed out of the bushes with white stuff all over their faces. They moaned and pointed at each Katubi man. They screamed and ran off.
"Yay it worked!" Ginger exclaimed as she, Mary Ann, and Mrs. Howell clapped their hands and jumped up and down while the dog licked the cream from around his mouth and jumped up and down.
