Part 2: The Roadblock

There are no delays, so the teams on the 8:30 flight arrive on time in Dublin at 9:50 AM. Teams had reread the clue on the flight that told them they must get a cab and go to a famous sculpture landmark to note a horrible tragedy in Ireland's history (correct answer is the Famine Scuplture). Squirrelflight and Bramblestar find a cab first. "Do you know about this famous landmark", said Squirrelflight. "Yes", said the cabbie. "This is the Famine Sculpture". "Do you know where it is"? said Bramblestar. "Yes I do", said the cabbie. "Please get us there quickly", said Bramblestar. Reedwhisker and Mallownose and Tigerheart and Dawnpelt all quickly get cabs. "Do you know what landmark this is"? said Dawnpelt. "Um no" ,said the cabbie. "May we use your cell phone to look it up", said Tigerheart. "Sorry no. It is low on juice. Let me ask this cabbie here", said the cabbie. "Seriously", said Dawnpelt and face palms herself. "Listen let's just get another cab", said Tigerheart. "Fine", said Dawnpelt. They quickly find another cab and this cabbie knows the landmark and the location. So this just puts them 5 minutes behind the first two teams. From the first flight, #1 Squirrelflight and Bramblestar #2 Reedwhisker and Mallownose and #3 Dawnpelt and Tigerheart.

Turns out for the second flight at 9:15 AM that is supposed to arrive at 10:35, does not arrive until 11:15. While it does not help the last team on the 11 AM flight a lot (only a little) it does hurt the groups in the second flight a lot. Tigerstar is steaming when he finally leaves the airport to look for a cab. "Tigerstar, calm down. Look there are 3 other teams with us. It is not good to lose focus now", said Scourge. "I know you are right but I am still pissed", said Tigerstar. His anger does fuel him and Scourge to get to a cab first. "Let me handle this Tigerstar", said Scourge. "We don't want to scare any cabbies off". "No. I want to handle it", said Tigerstar. "Listen I don't have time for hissy fits. I'm handling it and that is the end of it", said Scourge. "I'm impressed you stood up to me. Fine you can handle it", said Tigerstar. They discover their cabbie knows the landmark and where it is located and is a fast driver. The second team to get a cab is Leafpool and Hollyleaf. It turns out their cabbie knows the landmark but is not sure where it is but quickly lets Hollyleaf check it out on his phone. Then Millie and Blossomfall get a cab and their cabbie knows the landmark and where it is, so they get a slight lead over Leafpool and Hollyleaf but only by 2 minutes. Leafstar and Echosong are the last team to get a cab and luckily their cabbie knows what it is and where it is.

Squirrelflight and Bramblestar arrive and quickly find the box and the clue. They look at the clue and we see Tansy telling us about it, "The next Roadblock requires one team member to "express themselves". As you know each team member must 6 Roadblocks (for a total of 12). To do this challenge they must go to the Brazen Head Pub". "Being the world's best mayor of Thundertown and former clan leader, you should do this challenge, Bramblestar", said Squirrelflight. "When it comes to expressing yourself, you are pretty good too", said Bramblestar smiling. Squirrelflight blushes and says, "Thanks". "I'll do the challenge, Squirrelflight", said Bramblestar. They go to their cab and the cabbie knows how to get there. "Oldest pub in Dublin and always has Guinness available". Reedwhisker and Mallownose arrive shortly after and read the clue. "Are you thinking what I am thinking"? said Mallownose. "That I should do the challenge"? said Reedwhisker. "Yes you would be good at it", said Mallownose. "Thank you and yes I will", said Reedwhisker. They find their cab and their cabbie knows where to go too.

Dawnpelt and Tigerheart arrive and read the clue. "You should do it" ,said Dawnpelt. "No you should do it", said Tigerheart. This continues for about 5 minutes until Dawnpelt says, "We should just do Rock, paper and Scissors". "Okay" they say. At the same time, Tigerheart says, "scissors" and Dawnpelt says, "paper". "I guess I have to do it. Okay", said Tigerheart. They get their cab and their cabbie doesn't know where it is but he lets them look it up on their cell phone. Then they are on their way.

Squirrelflight and Bramblestar walk into the pub. They are greeted by a guy named John. "I'm a storyteller from An Evening of Food, Folklore and Fairies. We do this special event every evening for most of the year". Today one of you will be the storytellers. We have a booklet here with a number of popular Irish folktales. You need to pick one and perform it. We are not looking for you to just memorize it and read it but bring your own take to the story. Be creative and add different interactive features in your story for the audience. Today Erin and I will be your audience (by the way it is not any of the Erins). First I will perform one of the stories I like to do during our event. He performed his story and Squirrelflight and Bramblestar were enthralled. "Hmm not quite the same as my speeches as clan leader or mayor, but I will give it my best shot", said Bramblestar. Just as he said that Reedwhisker and Mallownose walked in. Bramblestar said to Reedwhisker, "Watch that guy perform. He's amazing and then we have to do what he does". "Okay", said Reedwhisker.

John says, "I have to wait for at least one more team to come in to do my next story". So about 7 minutes later Dawnpelt and Tigerheart arrive and the storyteller does his story. "We have to do what he just did", said Reedwhisker. "Really"? said Tigerheart nervously. Bramblestar is just about ready to perform. He is a little nervous at first but he is terrific. He gets everyone participating, even the teams for a moment until they remember they need to practice themselves. Bramblestar did Finn MacCool and the famous part of the story when the wife tricks the Scottish giant into thinking Finn is actually their giant baby. He had the audience say, "Be quiet or you'll wake our baby". John smiles and says, "You were excellent Bramblestar and you get the next clue and of course a Guinness on the house".

Meanwhile Tigerstar and Scourge find the Famine Sculpture, followed by Millie and Blossomfall quickly behind. They see Tigerstar and Scourge conferring about something. Scourge yells at Tigerstar and says, "No, I will not trick their cabbie into leaving. Enough with the tricks". He throws his backpack at Tigerstar and knocks him out. Millie says to Blossomfall, "We must leave. I don't want to be a part of this". Blossomfall is skeptical but nods and they run to catch their cab. It turns out that Tigerstar was just momentarily knocked out and got up 2 minutes later. "What do you think you were doing"?! screamed Tigerstar. "Let's just leave. You are causing a scene. There's Leafpool and Hollyleaf and they are staring at us", said Scourge. "Fine. Let's go", said Tigerstar. They go to their cab and their cabbie is getting annoyed that he has to wait so long and also why it is taking them so long to tell him where to go. The cabbie gives them a look but doesn't say a word. Tigerstar looks at the clue and says, "This is a perfect challenge for me. I'm wonderful at expressing myself". Scourge just shakes his head in dismay. He's tired of the conflict and just says, "Yes fine do it. Whatever". Hollyleaf decides to do the challenge and Leafpool readily agrees with that decision.

Now Reedwhisker goes up to perform. He did a story about the pookas, a type of fairy who liked to cause destruction on farms and scare the animals. He did a great imitation of the Pookas. When he was done, as Bramblestar was getting ready to leave he says to Reedwhisker, "Amazing. It's just like my father was here in this room". They both laugh. John announces to Reedwhisker that he did an excellent job and will get his clue and beer now too. Tigerheart does a story about fairies but was so nervous he stammered about half the way through. John shakes his head and says, "Sorry but you will have to try again". Tigerheart is disheartened but he realizes none of the other teams are there yet, but about 15 minutes later when he is ready to do his second attempt, Tigerstar and Scourge walk in. "Great now, my terrifying grandfather walks in and has to see me perform", said Tigerheart. "Block him out or pretend he is in his underpants", said Dawnpelt. "Thanks I'll try", said Tigerheart. He took a few deep breaths. While he was not as bad as before he still stammered a bit. John shakes his head again and Tigerheart says, "Do you think maybe I can have my beer now"? Thinking he is joking, John laughs and says, "Sorry no. You are doing better. Just relax a bit and you'll be fine".

Tigerstar finds an extremely scary story about a Banshee and does an excellent job with the Banshee's wail. In fact everyone thought he was a little too convincing. John looks at him silently for a minute and says, "Wow. Unbelievable. You scared the bejesus out of me. Excellent job. Interested in joining our team"? "Not especially. Can I have my beer now"? said Tigerstar. "Um ok", said John.
