Bears in teh Ice: The Quest of teh Cubs Part 2

The next day, when Lago woke up the cubs she told them that it was time for her to leave and said goodbye. First and second were both super sad to see her go but knew they needed to leave as well because their mother wasn’t going to wait. Suddenly, they heard noises coming and followed the sound. Until, they reached a giant arena where the doors were locked and their was a guard standing by. They asked him what was happening and he told them about the “Roaring”, where the males would go to roar and hunt while the woman would stand by and watch. This was what her mother was talking about before she left! However, they couldn’t not enter because of the male bear’s distaste for cubs. Anyway, the guard warned them about the “Rougers”, people who ignored the laws and did everything for themselves. They would be hunting for cubs especially, this got first and second a bit worried but they managed to stay safe. That is…until they tried to find a seal hole. 

Both of the cubs got their hands stuck inside and couldn’t take them out. In this book there are creatures that resemble sharks called, “Frag-Sharks” and they have more teeth then their mouth can handle. Thankfully, there was a seal that came out of the water near them and said he’d help them in exchange for the cubs not to eat him. They agreed and the seal went into the water and distracted the “Frag-Sharks” so that they had enough time to pull their hands out, one by one. Once the cubs thanked the seal they realized that he could be one of their friends. The Seal asked them what their names were and Second explained that cubs in their tribe weren’t named for another season. But because the mother left, the seal said it was time for them to name themselves. Second had always wanted to call herself, Jytte, while First named himself, Stellan. They got heir names from the stars since their mother and father were named after a star. 

The seal introduced himself as “Jameson” and was very kind to the two seals. However, he needed to leave because the war was going to melt soon and seals couldn’t get too hot. But before that he told the two cubs about a beluga whale that died yesterday, he showed the direction and said bye. Jytte and Stellan were grateful for all his help and promised not to forget his actions. Suddenly, they caught sight of the beluga carcass, but there was a tooth walker eating ti already. In the stories their mother used to tell toothwalkers were very vicious creatures that killed anything that got in the way. Basically, Jytte and her brother were able to carefully drag the carcass away from the creature since it was stuck in the freezing water. After having enough of their meal they kept on walking away from the site and the toothwalker had the rest to himself.
