David's eyes, wide opened, stared at Katie, horrified.
- Gosh! - He said, as Raven caught her. He held her hand and stood irresolute, while Tommy spoke.
- Come, let's find some room for her. - David stared at the cut on her leg. - I bet there's something comfortable. I wonder... I wonder what happened to her. -
He glanced up at his friends, Tommy and Raven, trying to figure it out. Then he had an idea.
- Oh!!! Wait a second!! - He ran to the woods they had come from.
- Maybe one of those thorns was special... - He said, staring at each of them. - Maybe one was poisonous...
He heard Tommy coming near him. He glanced back and the girls were taking Katie in the ship, but Raven, as brave as she was, and obstinated too (David smiled, shaking his head) was coming toward them.
