Chapter Seven: Can You Bend, Stretch and Jump?
Can You Bend, Stretch and Jump? Wilderness Agility Course FTW!
"Too bad Mieke couldn't help us, isn't it?" said Pdep sadly, he thought Mieke could've been of great help.
"Yeah, I'm sure she could've helped us with something important!" shouted Ürstian enthusiastically.
"She was cute! She was strong! She was hot! She was…" shouted Leroy, when Layla hit him.
"Stop it Leroy, stop it all of you! You shouldn't drool over women" explained Leroy, she wanted to add 'other than me', but she thought the four would call her arrogant…
"Yeah, I guess you're right. We should concentrate on the mission! Uhh, where are we going now?" asked Pdep, "You're not going to lead us to another dead-camp right?"
"Don't exaggerate Pdep! Bandit Camp isn't that bad! And for your information, we're going to Axenghista's Castle now. I think you'll be able to see it soon" explained Ürstian, you could hear the nervousness in his voice; he wasn't sure how this would end either…
They walked on through the deserted Wilderness, it kept getting darker and darker, and the ground turned to black ash. It wasn't a neat place to be.
The big, black volcanoes spew ash into the air, making everything blacker, soon ash was everywhere, on the ground, in the air, in the five's lungs and it became unbearable. The five were forced to put facemasks on, which they made out of their clothes.
"For Guthix' sake! How much further?" yelled Leroy annoyed. Boss tried to calm him down but that made Leroy angrier.
"Not very far, we've got to go up that hill", said Ürstian while pointing at a white-looking hill, "and then we should see the Castle and a way into it"
"Why is that Hill white? We're knee-high in ash now, so that can't be snow, can it?" asked Boss intrigued.
"Why yes it can, the volcanoes spew ash this way, and the cold air cools it down. Cold ash at this altitude mixes with snow to make a 'special' powder" explained Ürstian carefully.
"I'm not going to argue with that logic"
The five hurried up the hill, the ash was suddenly gone and the five sat down. They could see the Castle now; but that wasn't the problem.
"Oh my Guthix, look at that! How are we going to get through that?" shouted Leroy annoyed at Ürstian, he didn't understand why Ürstian hasn't told them about it.
"I didn't know this was here either, they must've made it recently. Let's go!" explained Ürstian, and he jumped down the hill.
"Wait! You're actually going to try getting through this? Look at those funbags! And how you like them fishes?" asked Pdep, he was very afraid of going through this… this… terrible nightmare.
"Don't be wimps, we could easily cross this. Yeah, there might be lots of guards, and yeah, we might need some equipment, but we can do this!" said Ürstian encouraging.
"I guess you're right…" whispered Pdep.
"What?"
"I guess you're right!" said Pdep.
"I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
"YOU ARE RIGHT, ÜRSTIAN!" shouted Pdep encouraged.
"Then, let's kick the crap out of this AGILITY COURSE!"
"YEAH!"
