Part 6: Detour Continued
Leafstar and Echosong had an easy journey traveling to the Detour stop. When they saw the signs, they decided to do shearing, although it was a risk since they didn't know what kind of animal and how the animal would be. They went to the shearing station and saw they were sheep. "I'm not familiar with these sheep", said Leafstar.
"Are you"? said Echosong.
"Not really, but I think we will be okay", said Leafstar.
Nightcloud and Breezepelt had a little trouble finding the Detour spot but definitely made it before Yellowfang and Brokenstar. Nightcloud had misread the map and Breezepelt and Nightcloud were arguing about it. They pulled over for a minute and got themselves together. When they saw the signs that said Shearing and Ploughing, they thought that they should do the ploughing.
Leafstar was able to calm down her sheep and get done in a moderate amount of time. Echosong had a little trouble at first with her sheep but it did not take her too long and she did okay too. They got their clue for the pit stop and made their way there. They found out they were in 9th place. They were a little disappointed but vowed to increase their ranking next time, because they did not want to be eliminated.
Nightcloud and Breezepelt saw the demonstration and got their information and clues regarding the ploughing. But when it came time to set up the plough, Nightcloud was getting all confused and was not much of a help. Breezepelt said, "Wait and let me finish the rest". So that is what they did. They were wondering if Yellowfang and Brokenstar were going to come soon. They found out if even they did, they would not race against them.
Yellowfang and Brokenstar were tired and annoyed. Yellowfang was sitting in the back of the car complaining about the race. "Why did we decide to do the race anyhow"? said Brokenstar.
"I thought it would be great to spend more time together and see different countries", said Yellowfang.
"You did see the show before right"? said Breezepelt.
"No, I had no idea", said Yellowfang.
"Seriously"? said Breezepelt.
So Nightcloud and Breezepelt did their runs and scored 145 and 157 respectively. Even though Nightcloud got under 150, their combined score average was 151, so they were able to receive their clue and go to the pit stop. They found out they were in 10th place. They were upset but relieved. "We really got to get into gear in the next leg", said Breezepelt.
Yellowfang and Breezepelt did the shearing challenge and finally got it done. They received their clue and went to the pit stop. They knew they were in last place. "It was great to race with my son and spend more time with him and improve our relationship", said Yellowfang. "Yes it was a good experience", said Breezepelt.
After a 24 hour rest period, everyone received their clues to find out about their next destination. It is Paris, France. They were told to drive back to the airport and book a flight there.
So now Yellowfang and Brokenstar were the ones to go. Looks like Yellowfang was not really prepared for the race. Voting will begin again for the next leg. Thank you and please review if you like it.
