Chapter 3

Something was in danger Leo didn’t know who, he looked around to tell Darrel but she wasn’t there, “Darrel!” “where are you”. She was nowhere to be found. Leo didn’t know what to do, he wanted to go find his sister but he didn’t want to risk getting lost and never finding her. Leo had a good long think, in the end he decided to leave a note for the crew in case they came back.

To the captain and crew

I’m very sorry but Darrel has been taken by someone or something. I’ve gone to look for her but I don’t know if either of us will come back. I’ve left two ruck sacks full of food and all the equipment you need.

Yours sincerely

Leo

So, Leo set off on the journey, He first climbed up the Deadly Peak then down across the Bridge of Doom with a river of bubbling 1,200 degrees acid underneath. He ran through the Forest of Lost Souls, but still no sign of Darrel, he looked around the whole island feeling annoyed and sad that his only bit of family was gone. The sun started to set, the moon was glistening above him so he slumped by an ancient tree and started to doze off. Out of the blue he heard noises, noises that sounded like Darrel. “Leo!” shouted Darrel from the distance. He sprung to his feet and ran like a panther trying to catch its prey until the sound led to a cave, a pitch-black cave. The noise continued. Leo crept deeper into the cave as the noise became clearer and then he saw her. She was huddled up in the corner of the cave in a colossal nest. They dashed out of the cave through the Forest of Lost Souls, over the bridge and up the deadly peak.
