By the time they caught up with him, Big Bird was ready to recieve them. His powerful thigh muscles twitched in anticipation of the jump into the air that would allow him to come down on them in perfect fury.
Which is exactly what he did the moment the opportunity was given. His wings aided his spring, and within seconds he was a foot above Lucius.
"Watch out!" Luke called out. "Reach up and bite his belly!"
Lucius jumped to the side and escaped Big Birds attack. Big Bird was far from disuaded. Again he sprung up and again Lucius jumped to the side. Both of them found themselves on the edge of the hill. The Fight was on.
The Fight! >>
