5 Dire Plan

CHAPTER 5

第五章

Dire Plan Clara glared at the prince. "You know we should have told Grom about the pup." Lucas grabbed his backpack and stuffed any food he could find into it: sausages, bread, fruit, and more. "We tried," he said. "Besides, I have a plan." "A plan?" Clara asked. "What kind of plan?" Lucas smiled. "We're returning the pup to her wolf pack. Dire wolves travel every few days, so we don't have much time."

克拉拉怒视着王子。 “你知道我们应该把小狗的事告诉格罗姆的。” 卢卡斯抓起他的背包，把他能找到的食物都塞了进去：香肠、面包、水果等等。 “我们试过了，”他说。“再说，我有个计划。” “计划?”克拉拉问道。“什么样的计划？”卢卡斯笑了。 “我们要把小狼崽送回她的狼群。 恐狼每隔几天就会来一次，所以我们没有多少时间。”

Clara nodded thoughtfully. "Good idea, but how is the pup going to follow us? I'm not putting her on a leash." Lucas held up his bag of food. "You don't need a leash if you have snacks! Watch and learn."

克拉拉若有所思地点了点头。 “好主意，但是小狗怎么能跟着我们呢？” 我不会用皮带拴住她的。” 卢卡斯举起他那袋食物。 “如果你有零食，就不需要皮带了！”观察和学习。”

The prince waved a sausage in front of the pup and walked around the tent. The pup sniffed the air, then followed Lucas everywhere. Ruskin was interested too. Lucas tore the sausage into two pieces and tossed one to the pup and one to Ruskin. They both ate it up and looked back to Lucas, asking for more.

王子在小狗面前挥舞着一根香肠，绕着帐篷走了一圈。 小狗嗅了嗅空气，然后跟着卢卡斯到处走。 罗斯金也很感兴趣。 卢卡斯把香肠撕成两半，一块扔给小狗，一块扔给罗斯金。 他们俩都吃完了，回头看着卢卡斯，要求再吃一点。

Lucas tossed another piece, and the pair collided trying to catch it. The dire wolf pup let out a series of tiny sneezes. "Looks like you are allergic to dragons, huh?" said Lucas. "We'll make sure to keep you two apart. Even a tiny dire wolf sneeze can be tracked by hunters." As they stepped out of the tent, Lucas told Ruskin to fly overhead and look for signs of the wolf pack. "Pay attention to caves, Ruskin," Lucas directed. "Wolves like to hide there during the day."

卢卡斯又扔了一块，两人为了抓住它撞在了一起。 可怕的小狼打了几个小喷嚏。 “看来你对龙过敏，是吧？”卢卡斯说。 “我们一定会把你们俩分开的。 即使是一个很小的可怕的狼打喷嚏也能被猎人追踪到。” 当他们走出帐篷时，卢卡斯让罗斯金从头顶飞过，寻找狼群的踪迹。 “注意洞穴，罗斯金，”卢卡斯指示道。 “狼喜欢在白天躲在那里。”
