How to not get Killed - Week 3 - Tuesday

The class was meeting yet again in the Danger Shop. This week they were faced with a sloping wall with levels and ladders and various moving fires in different places. At the top was a bored looking giant gorilla and next to him was a cage that looked like it was empty? It was difficult to tell from where they were.

Arashi smiled at everyone as they filed in, nodding. “Good morning everyone! So this week might be more or less of a challenge than last week, just in different ways. Our friend up there,” he said motioning to the gorilla who waved back with a yawn. “Has something precious of yours, wither it’s a person or a thing- who knows the Danger Shop decides, and it’s your job to get it back but just getting up to the same level of the cage without getting ‘killed’. It’s not going to be a matter of just climbing ladders, the gorilla will be throwing barrels down the slope as you go, unless you can talk him out of it.”

“Other than that there aren’t any tricks to it! At the end of the class there will be cake! Or pie, which ever you prefer.”

There was cake involved. Jack was going for it. And the first ladder.

"You can talk!" Jack exclaimed. "What's the view like up there? Can I see?" Climb Jack Climb .

Ella took a deep breath, reminded herself to ignore the heights factor, and started climbing, skirt billowing out around her legs.

"It's what I wore to class," Ella said with a tiny shrug, scaling the last rungs of the ladder. "Should I climb in my underthings insetad?"

"Do you frequently ask young ladies to strip?" Ella wondered aloud, scrambling higher. "I hear that's frowned on in some cultures."

"Get a new job!" Ella suggested, hopping to the side and barely managing to dodge the barrel. "i hear they're hiring ladder builders."

"But think about how fantastic you'd feel doing something constructive, instead of de - OOF!" Ella said.

The "oof" being the point where the barrel hit her and she bumped back down the ladder.

Liir decided to try to see if it was a Gorilla first.

"Ho! Sir Gorilla," and he made sure to sound respectful. "Might I ask if you'd be willing to chat? I've made banana walnut bread this morning and still have a piece!"

"No, sir," he said respectfully. "Though I'll admit it's a good thing to see an Animal about such as yourself, sir."

"Certainly not," and he continued blithely along, not wanting to be killed.

"From what I've seen of Gorillas, they're a hardworking and well-kept bunch, and you certainly seem to be the same."

Michael started to climb.

He could deflect the barrels, if he concentrated.

"...hi?" Michael offered, trying to just dodge the barrel this time.

"Um, hi there?" Sam called up to the gorilla. Might as well try talking first, right?
