[T. Hayes] He wasn’t too far away now he begins to spot landmarks that the troops coined whenever they would go out on expeditions It wouldn’t be long now he thought But he hears something A piercing desperate painful song It was too loud for him to disregard so he lowers his altitude to the forest below in an effort to investigate There! Not too far off in the distance he spies a fellow mockingbird encaged in the talons of a great hawk as it flies most likely to its home to feast He did not recognize who the mockingbird was but that did not matter to him He knew to be no match for a hawk of its size but he pursued anyway The hawk was oblivious to any plot against him therefore he flew slow and low enough for the young blackbird to catch up to him And boom!
