09 Adventure Calls!

CHAPTER 9 ADVENTURE CALLS! Tag looked at Blaze. Then he turned back to Grey. "Do you really think a barn owl, a squirrel, and a baby bird can battle Thorn?" "We need the Ember Stone, Tag," Grey said. "Blaze already trusts you and Skyla. And it is Blaze who will find the stone."

第九章冒险在召唤！泰格看着布雷兹。 然后他转向格雷。 “你真的认为一只仓鸮、一只松鼠和一只小鸟能打败索恩吗？”“泰格，我们需要余烬之石。” “火焰已经信任你和斯凯拉了。 而找到那块石头的人是火焰。”

Tag knew what he had to do. "We'll do it," he said. "Skyla, Blaze, and me. We will go to Fire Island and find the stone." Grey smiled. Then he quickly searched through some papers on his desk. He pulled out a rolled-up piece of paper, and gave it to Tag. "This will show you the way." Tag tucked it beneath his wing. Grey opened a large cabinet filled with weapons. He turned, holding up two sets of armor. One for Tag, made of silver. One for Skyla in bronze. "I had these made for you."

泰格知道他该怎么做。 “我们会这么做的，”他说。“斯凯拉，布雷兹，还有我。 我们要去火岛找那块石头。” 灰色的笑了。然后他迅速地在桌子上翻了翻文件。 他拿出一张卷起来的纸，递给泰格。 “这会给你指路的。” 泰格把它塞到翅膀下面。 格蕾打开了一个装满武器的大柜子。 他转过身来，举起两套盔甲。 一个给泰格，银制的。 一件是斯凯拉的铜像。“这是我给你做的。”

Tag tried his on. It fit perfectly. "How did you know we would need armor?" "I am very old." Grey smiled. "There is not much that I do not know." He handed Tag a golden dagger. It felt lighter than a feather. "Wow!" Tag said. "This blade is sharper than a tiger bat's beak!" "This is for you, Skyla." Grey gave Skyla a slingshot made from the finest wood. She grinned. "I'll be able to shoot even faster now!"

泰格试了试他的。非常合身。 “你怎么知道我们需要盔甲？”“我很老了。” 灰色的笑了。“没有什么是我不知道的。” 他递给泰格一把金匕首。 感觉比羽毛还轻。 “哇!”泰格说。“这刀刃比虎蝠的嘴还锋利！”“这是给你的，斯凯拉。” 格蕾给了斯凯拉一把用最好的木头做的弹弓。 她咧嘴一笑。“我现在射得更快了！”

"What about Blaze?" Tag asked. "Her feathers are stronger than any armor," Grey said. "And you've seen how fearsome her cry is." Tag and Skyla nodded. "Sleep here tonight," Grey continued. "I'll be on the lookout for Thorn's spies, so I won't see you off. Keep your weapons close at all times. And remember: Thorn could attack at any moment. Good luck." Grey flew away into the night. Tag gripped his dagger. He felt a shiver of excitement as he looked at Skyla and Blaze. "Tomorrow, we head for Fire Island," Tag said. "Where no owl—or squirrel— has gone before!"

“那Blaze呢？”泰格要求。 “她的羽毛比任何盔甲都坚固，”格雷说。 “你也看到了她的哭声有多可怕。” 泰格和斯凯拉点点头。“今晚睡在这里吧。”格雷继续说。 “我要提防索恩的密探，所以我就不送你了。 随时把武器放在身边。 记住：索恩随时都可能发动攻击。 祝你好运。”格蕾飞走了，消失在夜色中。 泰格紧握着他的匕首。当他看着斯凯拉和火焰时，他感到一阵兴奋的颤抖。 “明天，我们将前往火岛，”泰格说。 “以前没有猫头鹰——或者松鼠——去过的地方！”
