"That's a good idea," Blue Knight agreed. "White Knight?"
"I agree," White Knight answered. "Green Knight and Blue Knight. You take Seaspray, Windstorm and Goldenrod. You guys can search here in the forest. Myself, Black Knight and Red Knight will take Lightning, Firefly and Icestorm and start searching in the more dangerous areas for meat."

Green Knight took up the lead of leading the Seaspray, her sister Windstorm and Goldenrob on the journey through the jungle looking for vegetation. Blue Knight took up the rear.
They weren't searching long when Windstorm noticed some berries. "Hey sis," she called, "Look at this."

"What is it,Windstorm?" Seaspray asked,coming up.

"Almost looks like choke cherries."
Blue Knight looked at the two. "I suppose you can say they are and they are good too. Not only are they good for food but they are also good for medicine too."
Goldenrod looked at the berries too and soon asked if they could take some up. Green Knight couldn't see a problem with it, but warned the berries wouldn't last long.
"Sis, turn around." Windstorm suggested. Each scout was equipped with a backpack.

Seaspray turned around and allowed her sister to open the backpack.

Windstorm pulled out a small little packaged. Once she had the packaged, she opened up, revealing it to be a fairly large size bag that could fit two Sailor Scouts. Once the bag was out, the girls began to pick the berries.
The remaing scouts, Black Knight, White Knight, Red Knight, Icestorm, Firefly and Lightning headed off in another direction towards a mountain. Red Knight pointed out the mountain would have a good source of meat, but the journey was the dangerous spot. There would be rope bridges, narrow paths around cliffs and even a heavy stream that was deep they would have to get across. She also pointed out the natives of the planet were very primative compared to themselves.

'We'll have to be on our guard then." Lightning said.

White Knight agreed as she took the lead, having her other two friends bringing up the rear. As the walked, the forest began to be less thick and there was more rock sticking out of the ground.
"Watch it Icestorm," Firefly said. "This path is starting to get bumpy. Reminds me when we used to take the hikes into the mountains."

Icestorm nodded as she and Lightning carefully began walking through the rocks.

After a bit everyone then realized they were walking upwards and before long they were completely on the moutain and could look out and see the forest was as far as the eye could see.
"Where's my camera?" Firefly joked. "It's beautiful."
Red Knight agreed. "White, aren't we getting close to the first rope bridge?"
"Yes," White Knight called as she took a stop and looked at the view.

After about 15 minutes, they came to the first rope bridge. There some growth on it, making it noticeable that it hadn't been used in a long time.
"Ok," White Knight said. "This can get tough." She turned to the Scouts. "Do you three have any training on walking rope bridges?"
"I have some," Firefly said. "I was taught to walk a tight rope with the help of the Trio and Quartet."
"And the two of you?" Red Knight asked.

"Our mothers trained us in this kind of thing." Icestorm said as Lightning nodded.

"Good. I'll take point and we'll just take our time. Once we get over, we should be able to find some meat." White Knight said.
The scouts soon started to walk across, being able to hear water below. With a hand on each side of the rope bridge. Each scout had to carefully walk with foot directly in front of the other to make it across.
Firefly felt her foot wanting to slip on the slippery robe. The scouts were soon in the middle of the bridge and the noise of the water below was starting to get distracting.
"That is starting to bug...." With her mouth open to speak, she lost her footing. A huge scream came out of her as she slipped through and just barely able to grip on to the rop that held the sides of the bridge together.
"HELP ME!!" Firefly screamed.
"Firefly!" Black Knight shouted.
