06 Wolves

CHAPTER 6 WOLVES Tag stared up at two very large, hungry-looking wolves. Blaze peeped as Skyla pulled out her slingshot. Tag quickly hid the sack behind his back as the three friends huddled together.

第六章狼泰格抬头看着两只非常大的、看起来很饿的狼。 斯凯拉拔出弹弓时，火焰窥视着她。 泰格迅速把麻袋藏在背后，三个朋友挤在一起。

The wolves had long, black claws and sharp teeth. One was white and one was gray. Their eyes glowed orange. The gray wolf growled. GRRRRRRRRRRRR! Tag stumbled, dropping his sack on the ground.

狼有又长又黑的爪子和锋利的牙齿。 一个是白色的，一个是灰色的。 他们的眼睛闪着橙色的光芒。灰狼咆哮着。 GRRRRRRRRRRRR !泰格绊了一下，把麻袋掉在地上。

He turned to grab it. But the sack was gone! Where did my sack go? Tag wondered. He looked at Blaze. The firehawk was staring at a pile of dirt behind him, her eyes wide. The wolves growled again, and the friends all turned to face them. "Well, well," the white wolf said. "Look who we found." Skyla's paws shook as she held out her slingshot. "Stay back!" she cried. The gray wolf laughed. "Or what?" "I'll—" Before Skyla could say any more, the white wolf had grabbed her slingshot in his jaws. He threw it into the closest bush.

他转过身去抓住它。但是麻袋不见了！我的袋子去哪儿了？ 泰格很好奇。他看着Blaze。 火鹰瞪着他身后的一堆土，眼睛睁得大大的。 狼群又开始咆哮，朋友们都转过身来面对它们。 “好吧，好吧，”白狼说。 “看看我们找到谁了。”斯凯拉伸出弹弓，爪子颤抖着。 “退后！”她喊道。灰狼笑了。 “或者什么?”“我要——”斯凯拉还没来得及说什么，白狼已经咬住了她的弹弓。 他把它扔到最近的灌木丛里。

"Give us the Ember Stone!" the white wolf ordered, sniffing at their armor, searching for the stone. "We don't have it," Tag said. "He's telling the truth," the gray wolf said. "They are no use to us without the stone," the white wolf growled. "Let's take them to the cages."

“把烬石给我们！”白狼命令道，嗅了嗅他们的盔甲，寻找那块石头。 “我们没有，”泰格说。 “他说的是实话，”灰狼说。 “没有石头，他们对我们毫无用处。”白狼咆哮道。 “我们把它们带到笼子里去吧。”

"Blaze," Tag whispered. "Use your cry!" Blaze opened her beak, ready to scare the wolves away. But the two wolves were fast! In a blur, they were right behind Tag and Skyla. So close that Tag could feel their breath on his feathers. They snapped their jaws and growled louder than before. "Keep your beak shut," the white wolf snarled at Blaze, "or we'll hurt your friends."

“火焰，”泰格低声说。“哭吧！”布雷兹张开嘴，准备把狼吓跑。 但是那两只狼跑得很快！刹那间，他们就在泰格和斯凯拉身后。 太近了，塔格都能感觉到它们在他羽毛上的呼吸。 它们咬断了下巴，咆哮得比以前更响了。 “闭上你的嘴，”白狼对火焰吼道，“否则我们会伤害你的朋友。”

Blaze closed her beak. "Thorn won't be happy when we tell him we don't have the Ember Stone," the gray wolf whispered to the white one. The white wolf looked at Blaze. "At least we have the firehawk," he said. "She's worth something to Thorn." "What about the other two?" the gray wolf asked. The white wolf snarled. "We will make sure they are out of Thorn's way for good."

Blaze合上了嘴。“如果我们告诉索恩我们没有灰烬石，他会不高兴的。”灰太狼对白太狼耳语道。 白狼看着Blaze。 “至少我们还有火鹰，”他说。 “她对索恩是有价值的。” “那另外两只呢？”灰狼问。 白狼咆哮着。“我们会确保他们永远不碍索恩的事。”
