"That can't be good..."

All four screamed bloody murder as the giant stone warrior stood to his full hieght. Raising his large stone sword, he slammed it down where where our heroes were, which they of course, had already evactuated about 3 seconds ago.

The temple walls and roof shook violently as the stone warrior stomped after the 4 running and screaming like manics.

"Got a plan?!" Tiger yelled over the other two screaming to DarkHeart.

"Naht whe'lly!" DarkHeart called back, trying to talk with the jewel in her mouth. She had snatched it from Rattles so she wouldn't waste the wish on trying to get the stone warrior to go away.

"YOU BETTER BE THINKING OF ONE!" Tiger yelped as the foot of the stone warrior smashed down behind them.

"GAHHHHHHH-thumuuuuum! OH NO!" DarkHeart shrieked.

"What NOW!?" Flicker yelled from behind.

"I SWALLOWED THE JEWEL!" DarkHeart screamed.

"YOU WHAT?!" Tiger shrieked, but before DarkHeart could answer, they had to jump a large pile of rocks that had collected in the front of the temple, either that or be squished!

"RUN BY THAT TREE OVER THERE!" Flicker called, pointing over to DarkHeart's left.

"WHY!?"

"BECAUSE I LEFT THE CONCH IN IT, YOU WANNA RUN ALL OVER THIS ISLAND AND BE SQUISHED WHEN YOU RUN OUT OF ENERGY!?" Flicker snapped loudly.

DarkHeart did as she was told. Flicker managed somehow to grab into the tree and snatch out the conch, but lost his balance and was now hanging on by his claws in DarkHeart's hind. Rattles was screaming like crazy, Tiger was no-where to be seen, the stone giant was just behind them! GAHHHHH! AND THERE WAS NO MORE PLACES TO RUN!

DarkHeart looked back as she galloped into the water, only being able to get so deep. Tiger flew in from behind DarkHeart yelling out to him by bucking Flicker off into the air flying, and Tiger flying downward to her and snatching up Rattles.

"GO! Save my sis and Flicker, GO!"

Tiger couldn't argue with her and flew away like the wind, Flicker hanging from his mane and Rattles, crying and screaming, hanging from his mouth. 'Don't Look Back!'

He couldn't help himself, and turned to look back as the Giant Stone warrior was raising his sword like a gilloutine blade about to set loose on the black coated pony making a futile attempt to swim away. The giant started to swing down, the sword was coming!
