THE BLUE FEATHER
“I haven’t made up my mind yet, but we are way out here on
some planet the Spirits have let my little sister name after
herself, and all we know for sure...” Bardala ended her rambling,
and had a strange look on her face, “Do you smell that?”
“Mmmm, yes,” Tital said as he stopped pulling on his horse’s
reins, “someone is cooking and it smells good to me, something
like roasted chicken from back home.”
“That’s what I smell too. I just hope whoever it is doesn’t
want roasted human to go along with his chicken,” Bardala said.
“Come on, think positively. You would be too tough anyway,”
Tital said with smile.
Just as the cave got dark, they could see a little bit of light up
ahead, coming from what appeared to be an opening. Following
the cave toward the distant light, they soon found themselves at
the other end of the cave, and stepped outside into the daylight.
What they could see from just outside the end of the cave was
what looked like a Mayan Pyramid standing in the distance.
