Mondo 'S Tribe


Mondo 's clan


I am Mondo when my report began I was 16 years old. My founding father was killed by a undermine bear 5 years earlier and my Mother was claimed by Grog .... Grog hates me.

The men are gathering for a search, we are traveling to a summer encampment and need to have meat for the trek. Grog kicks me because he says I am too dim ... .. soon, very soon I will dispute him. He says my big feet make me inept.

The men are ready to trace and the headland man Tondor calls us to move out. lateen sail has spotted a ruck of Bison not to far from our camp. We will train them and set up an ambush. Tondor tells Grog and I to propel ahead on the right while Lateen and Gorbus does the same to the left.

I ease behind a careen with my spear in mitt when something startles the herd and they began running towards me. I hear a grunt and look over my shoulder and see Grog swinging his club at my foreland. My cause caused the shock to be a sandbag blow instead of killing me it knocked me unconscious and I fell in to the stampede. Luckily there was a dead Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree that had fallen and lay in their path and my lifeless soundbox rolled under its branches.

I opened my heart, my head hurt and I could hardly see. I try to stand but could not. I check and I still had my piss skin. I took a drink and poured some over my head. Slowly very slowly I began to total to my senses. Grog tried to wipe out me before I could challenged him.

Grog was about 5'tall and weighed about 200 lbs. I on the early manus stood at 6'and weighed about the same but where Grog was fat mine was muscle. One day I will get hold of him down, maybe today when I get back to camp.

I found my spear and using it as a staff I made my way back to ingroup. Before I made it to the camp area I realized something was very wrong, no smoke, as I rounded the boulder that marked the entryway to the box canyon where the encampment had been for months. Before me was a innocent sphere no huts no the great unwashed ... I was alone ... I collapsed to the ground.

The tribe probably thought I was dead, Grog would have told them that I got caught in the stampede. That was when I also realized that I did not know how recollective I was out, as weak as I felt it could possess been sidereal day. I knew where there were some berry vines near by and I went to them that at to the lowest degree gave me a bit of nourishment.

After I had eaten my fill of the Charles Edward Berry I made my way back to where the stampede had occurred. I followed in the Bison 's wake. I do n't know what I was expecting but … where else was I to go, I had been following for minute when I noticed a carcass. As I drew near I could see a fishgig sticking out of the Bison 's belly. It must have eluded the Clan and died slowly. I took my flint knife and began the appendage of skinning it. Before I was half done I decided to build up a flaming to keep predator away. I gathered wood and pulled out my fervency gem struck them together and directed the sparks to the kindling and in moment I had my fire I fed it prominent small-arm of wood boulder clay I had a raging fire.



I cut off some of the meat and placed it on a stone near the attack. Just by fortuity, a few twelvemonth ago a lump of meat was dropped into the coals of our fire. Some time later my founder noticed the tantalizing scent from the cooking meat he raked it out, brushed it off and took a snack. We each tried a musical composition of the cooked meat and now often cooked our heart and soul. I stood up from placing the pith and went back to the skinning of the bison.

There was a flow near by so I decided to just stay right where I was. I made Racks and hung pieces of core to smoke and to dry. I staked out the Bison skin and began to scratch up the hide and tan it.
I stayed there for a workweek and ate my fill and although I heard marauder almost every night my flame seemed to keep them at bay. I found some small Tree with straight automobile trunk about an inch to an inch and a half in diameter. I cut two about eight feet tenacious then I cut diminished ones to make a feast of about three foot. These I tied to the thirster celestial pole to arrive at a travois. I cut a lot of thin strips from the Bison cutis for this and Thomas More to tie the hide and and the inwardness to the travois.

Grog set looking into the campfire thinking about how his architectural plan to get rid of Mondo had worked so well, he laughed to himself. It was even honorable than he had planed, Mondo had fell right in front of the stampede. He laughs to himself naught left field of Mondo.

Tondor regretted the passing of Mondo for Mondo was fast becoming the in effect hunter in the Clan. They had looked for him but Grog had seen him come in front of the stampede so there was not practically mother wit in too long of a search.

They had traveled many days to their summer refugee camp only to come across that there had been a forest blast during the winter and the area was zero but ashes. Tondor decided to reverse North east in search of new land.

Mondo 's mother was sure as shooting that Grog was at fault for her Logos Death but was afraid to say anything. She knew that Grog would beat her and leave her arse. So she kept her thoughts to herself.
lateen sail 's daughter Sonda was heartbroken ... Even though she was only eleven she had a crush on Mondo. Mondo was the marvelous, secure and most liberal and Sonda knew that one day he would pick her ... She just had to produce a little bit ... well since her bureau was straight and she was as tight fitting as a bamboo shoot, maybe a lot of growing.

Mondo lifted the poles to his shoulder joint and began his search for the Clan. It was at least a moon to the summer camp. He had made a sling from a couple of strands cut from the bison skin and kept the sling in his paw as he walked. By the prison term he stopped for the day he had three lapin and a badger. He had gutted them while walking then when he stopped he finished skinning them. Mondo was bent over scrapping the Badger pelt when he heard a roar ... He grabbed his spear and turned, he barley had time to set himself as a saber-tooth Tiger launched itself toward him. Mondo dropped to his genu and steadied his spear. The Tiger hit the shaft and drove the spear into its chest the force of the wallop carried the Panthera tigris over and past Mondo ripping the spear out of his hands. Mondo grabbed for his flint knife and leaped on to the World Tamil Association back and with the razor sharp obdurate tongue attacked the throat of the tiger. The force of the Panthera tigris landing broke the fizgig in half. The sword of the spear pierced the mettle of the beast as it slung Mondo off its dorsum. It roared then dropped at Mondo 's metrical foot … dead. Mondo had closed his eyes because he knew he was dead ... nothing happened …. he opened his eyes to see the Panthera tigris at his invertebrate foot, then he shook.

He had no time to fall apart. He gathered Ellen Price Wood and establish a large fire. He began skinning the Panthera tigris noting the fact that it was a female person and looked like it may cause been nursing. Mondo staked out the tiger skin out to constitute scraping prosperous. Then he drug the carcass away from refugee camp. Returning to the camp he found three kitten eating his rabbits that he had planned on having himself. Well he thought that answers the doubt about if the tiger had kit or not.. Mondo picked up the rabbits and stuck them on sticks over the blast. He cut the badger into small pieces and fed it to the outfit. They ate their fill then curled up succeeding to Mondo and went to sleep.

The next sunup Mondo went back to the World Tamil Association carcass ... it was almost clean nothing but bones left. He looked around and found the oral sex and removed the Saber- tooth. Being about six inch long they would be right for stabbing. He headed back to camp the outfit were playing and nipping at the badger bones. He staked out the Panthera tigris skin and went to work on scrapping.

Mondo lifted the poles and started off it had been three days preparing the Panthera tigris peel, the kit played around his feet. They would take a few steps and front back and mew. Then run to catch up then repeat, they were not certainly what to do for Mondo kept on walking. This went on for over an hour then the kits started drifting farther back. Until Mondo heard a doleful cry and an answering growling .... a coyote looking for an easy meal. Why ? Mondo does not know but he dropped the celestial pole grabbed the half fishgig and attacked the coyote. Being a Coward the prairie wolf ran away … well just out of reach ... Mondo scratched his head wondering why he did some of the affair he did. He walked back to the tired and dash kit and picked up one turned it over … it was a Male he said"You are Bruno ”. The next had tabby cat streak and was female for some reason it reminded him of Lateen 's daughter,"You are Sondi."The last one was small but male Mondo laughed at the struggle and said"You are Runt."He carried them back to the carrier and placed them on the skins. They settled down to log Z's.

As the solar day passed the kits would get down from the carrier run and shimmer till they tired then they would climb up back up and go to catch some Z's. Mondo began to notice a cold-shoulder shudder in the air he began to concern that there might be a late snow violent storm coming. He started searching for a place to hold up and wait it out. With the aid of his sling he had plenty of inwardness to last so that was no worry but he did need to detect a straight pole to make into a spear. Another minute of walk and he noticed a stand of trees that had a few saplings the unadulterated duration for his spear ... if he could find the redress stones maybe he could micro chip out three or four fizgig heads. He began to look for salutary flints and collected a few and cut down a few saplings.

As Mondo set down to began shaping the spear heads he heard a scream, He took his half spear and moved off in the counsel of the sidesplitter. He was walking in a dry stream bed, as he walked he would pick up careen to use with his sling if needed. He could state he was getting close by the grunting just ahead of him. As he rounded a bend he saw something he had only heard about. Before him was what his dad had called lomen their bodies were twisted as was their faces they were eaters of men. The lomen were all-embracing in the body and strong and there were three of them. One of them was eating on the leg bone of a man they had ripped apart. The other two were trying to draw out something from under the bramble George H.W. Bush next to the rock-and-roll. From the sidesplitter I could tell it was a female and that the prickle was all that was between her and these monsters. I loaded my scarf bandage and let fly hitting the eater in the temple ... he dropped the leg and fell forward. I reloaded just as one of the other turned toward me I let fly the rock catching him in the fore head word. Before I could reload the last one had turned and charged me.

Before he could reach me three tawny dynamos went streaking past one grabbed an ankle, one grabbed the most individual section causing him to raise his nous which gave Bruno the chance he needed and latched on to his throat. As the monster went down I planted my half fishgig in to his thorax and pressed it into his heart. I called the kit off. I had not noticed but they had grown and their Milk teeth had been replaced by the starting time of their ivory, I chuckled that lomen probably was very surprised when those clamped on his privates.

I looked around and saw Runt on his belly crawling under the brambles. I heard another scream and I said do n't anguish my kitten he just wants to play and you are safe now the lomen are dead.
"Who are you ?"
"I am Mondo a lone huntsman lost from my Clan."“ I am going to cut the Brambles back"I took my knife and cleared an opening through the brambles. I was surprised to discover there was a cave behind the brambles. The first step was about four foot across and tall but once in side the cave it was at least eight fundament tall. As I entered the first matter I saw was an eight class old playing with runt beside her was her female parent and three other womanhood and two son about ten. The man who had been ripped apart was the only adult male with them. They were looking at me with fear, I glanced to either side and realized that Bruno and Sondi were escorting me. I will be correct back I will get rid of the bodies and get my gear and then I will regress. I drug the bodies a expert style away so vulture would not come close to the cave. I checked them for weapons but all they had was clubs, which I had no use for.

I drug my travois inside the cave and made legion trips back outside to bring in firewood. Then I drug the Brambles back to cover the entrance.
Then I looked at the hoi polloi still standing in the same place that I had left them.."Please at to the lowest degree sit down, I am not here to wound you if you wish to forget I will not block you. Do what you wish."

I decided to leave them alone and light a flame. I unloaded the travois and spread the the pelt the kitty crawled right on the fur and Lil the eight year old who had been playing with runt followed him onto the furs. One by one they began to sit on the furs and the boy asked if it was alright to pet the kittens. Sondi answered by rubbing on their stage, St. Bruno was not far behind. I continued getting the fire started and started some rabbit to roasting. I am Mondo I will stop telling my story. I noticed that some of the locoweed drifted down the cap origin of the cave then disappeared. I lit a duration of wood and and used it as a torch. I walked farther in to the cave the two son and Sondi and Giordano Bruno followed. About fifty ft inward we found a stream that ran along the rightfield wall. The cats smelled the body of water and took a drink. I dipped my script in, the body of water was low temperature and gratifying. We walked on for about a hundred substructure the cave made a turn to the left and opened up to a vast way with a pool almost twenty dollar bill to thirty foundation across. There was some kind of Moss on the cave wall that gave off light. I no longer need the torch so I put it out by covering it with dirt.. I walked across the room and could see an hatchway ahead of me. When I reached the chess opening I was shocked to see a beautiful valley. A river flowed from out of the ground at the understructure of the lot. uncivilized secret plan was abundant, berries were patent as well as herbaceous plant and spicery all were in sight. Mondo turned to the son,"Bring me the torch and I will relight it then I want you to go bring every one here."I continued to gaze at the vale trying to label its size the salutary guess was it was at least 10 miles long and 5 wide but would know better when I had a opportunity to explore.

While the boy were gone I walked out into the Valley and looked around. I felt like I was home, the cave had shelter and fresh water and the valley had all the food we could eat. I was standing in front of the cave with my arms lifted up towards the sky as the others stepped out of the cave. Lil and her mother Ludi were first out of the cave they walked up to me and asked where are we. Ludi says When we left the former end it was snowing but..but.. here the sun is shining and it is strong. Everyone gathered around all were amazed at what they saw. One of the charwoman, Pori, made the comment we could exist here and no one would know.."Moli and headliner the former two women spoke together"we need to go get our things."I knew then I had been accepted for, our things they refer too was the token I had unloaded from my travois. But they were right we needed the things moved to this end .We all went back together.

The initiatory night we slept on the fur it was airless sleeping, in the middle of the Night I awoke with an arm draped across my body stroking my pectus and stomach.. I started to become over when a voice said shhhh. I lay there enjoying the feeling and not knowing who was doing the detrition. That night I had pleasant pipe dream. And when I awoke the next morning the ladies were out gathering herbs Ludi was directing them ... that 's when I found out she was a medicament woman apprentice, And Lil 's mother.
The other ladies, Pori seventeen, Moli nineteen and genius twenty five were not related to the boy, Drago and Malo were twins but not very, .they did not know what had happened to their parents.

The whole radical had been tied together after being captured by the lomen. They had been walking for hr when the leader of the lomen called a halt. He pointed to three of his group and speaking in a speech communication they did not understand. Ludi assumed he was assigning the three to watch them. Their guards pushed them down near a large downed tree diagram. The lomen had not noticed that there was a hole under the tree which led to the dry stream bed and eventually to the cave. Lil found the hole. She told her mother and Ludi whispered to the others. Then they waited. Later into the Night the lomen began to drowse when she felt it safe she lowered Lil into the hole and one at a time they all slipped away. The man was the last and he slipped and fell making enough dissonance to rouse the lomen. They ran as fast as they could then Ludi saw the brambles and every one tried to skid under them when the lomen grabbed the man and literally ripped him apart. One of the early lomen was reaching under the brambles and had grabbed on to lead .... That is when Mondo arrived and took out the lomen. Mondo took charge and Ludi was glad to let him besides she was physically attracted to him. Mondo had checked each one of them to arrive at surely no one was injured. And they all stood there in fear not knowing what to do next.

Mondo began working on his fishgig he stripped the bark from the saplings. And stood the haft near the fire to begin the drying out and hardening of the shafts. He took the stones and began working on the blades for the spearpoint. Drago and Malo sat stopping point watching his every move. Mondo looked around and spotted the kittens following the cleaning lady and playing. The adult female seemed to demand the front of the Saber-tooth quat as natural. After making four spear blades and rotating the shafts Mondo decided it was time to look over the valley. He gather a few rocks and his triangular bandage and motioned to the boys, they fell in behind him.

Mondo saw a small-scale herd of bison, many rabbits, a variety of birds and Goat and sheep and many other animals. They all seemed to be food creature former than low carnivores there did not look to be any boastfully vulture. There was no evidence of Tigers, bears or wolves. The most dangerous animal he saw was bovine. One breed had horns about six feet in length. The deer population was abundant and they counted the head on a prominent hart as three hands plus two finger's breadth. I thought about what I had done … into this peaceful vale I had introduced three top of the dividing line marauder. They may be Edward Young now but … one day. I guess I would have to condition them. And let them hunt down in the forest from the bramble bush entrance. I decided my estimate of the size of the vale was close very close but probably the valley was a bit gravid. In the space Mondo could see a drear area which he felt could be another cave ... maybe another exit. One day he vowed to take the air all of the valley ... Then he would know.

When he and the son returned the camp seemed to be empty ... Mondo was worried, with gig at the ready he entered camp. Then he heard laughter from inside the cave. He and the son entered the cave and was met with the ken of sensation completely nude and the others all waist deep in the pool ... also nude. They saw him and the son and waved to them, come in seed in there is a hot springs in the puddle. Mondo looked around at the boys but was too former they had already dropped their clothes and were running for the water. Mondo shed his own pelt to the oohs and aahs of the adult women. Mondo did n't have to do anything just take the air into the pond. The women met him and began to wash him even Lil tried to help but the woman said no.

The slingshot kept us in food and cutis for clothes. There was a industrial plant that had blades that looked like steel, the irritant on the end of the sword could be broken off and a reduce train of thought like piece of music about two feet long could be pulled out of the sword, this made for a perfect phonograph needle and train of thought. The spine would regenerate after about two hebdomad so the phonograph needle and ribbon was constantly replaced as long as the blade was not cut. I taught all how to use the slings and they all seemed to be natural. It was a pleasant life though I wished for more men to go after bigger game and … I missed my mother.

Mondo 's mother, Sharlu, did not know how lots more she could take. Since Mondo had been killed Grog seemed to wait for thing to get angry about ... and he beat her. Tondor saw this and tried to snub it but he to had been casting his eyes at the beauteousness of Sharlu. Ever since his married woman had died he had thought to claim a new married woman, but by the law of nature of the federation of tribes Grog had acted first and Sharlu was his. If Tondar ever actually saw Grog licking Sharlu .... He would Challenge Grog. But now was not the meter. A sickness had swept through the Clan, Tobar the practice of medicine Man worked with them all until he too became sick Before it was over they had lost six children, five men including Tobar and eight cleaning lady. The Clan was really hurting there was only eleven men, five women and ten kid. Of the ten youngster only three were over twelve and only one was male. Some of the men were still very weakly only three hunters were available to feed the Clan. No Tondar thinks, today is not a salutary day to challenge. Grog is needed.

Grog was never touched by sickness and he took this as a sign that he was destined to be head of the tribe. He would watch Tondar and he would plan.

Today Star asked to go on the search with Mondo and he agreed. They were about three naut mi from the Camp when star topology dropped to her stifle and put her headland to the ground and pulled her habiliment to the side baring her delightful butt. As she wiggled her butt joint she tells Mondo she wants a baby. Having never done this before Mondo squatted behind her and tried to enrol her. After the fourth part omit principal reached between her branch, took him in hand and guided him into her velvet glove. Mondo had never felt anything like this before and he went fantastic bouncing Star all over the ground. Then he felt a strange sensation and he grabbed her rose hip and shoved himself all the way into whizz, His discharge was like an plosion and as the belief receded. Mondo collapsed at Stars feet, the rest of the morning was spent the same way. They finished their hunt and Star told him the other cleaning woman were waiting their turn of events. They had decided that their clan needed more the great unwashed. Mondo walked around the rest period of the day with a big grin on his face just thinking … he would get to do this to the other cleaning lady too.

As they arrived back at bivouac everyone knew that Star had been successful and every time the other women would walk past Mondo they would tweet their tail at him. Even Lil as young as she was got in on the tail twitching. Two calendar month later all the fair sex were pregnant and Lil was asking her Mother why she could n't be fraught too.

Mondo was training the Cats and as they became great he began taking them out into the forest past the Bramble logic gate. The CT had made a honest kill and I was dragging my travois with the meat and pelt down the gully when Bruno came to a stop and I could here a growl in Sondi 's throat. Runt was crouched in his onrush musical mode. I made a downward push with my work force, I had trained them that this meant to crouch down and hold. I crawled forward and spotted three lomen guarding a line of captives .My qat hated lomen. I counted the captive, two men, six women and five minor under 12, two male child and three missy. We followed knowing they would stop for a sleep soon. When they stopped we waited till two of the lomen began to nap. Then I stood up with my slingback and bounced a sway off the guards temple killing him instantly. The sentry duty falling awakened the other two lomen they began to rise but stopped when they felt the mitt on their chest. Bruno and Sondi made one solidus and opened the throat of the two. Runt not to be out done ripped out the pharynx of the one I had killed.


I released one of the prisoner and instructed her to unloosen the others while I got rid of the lomen.

I looked around at the captive and told them not to vex about the Cats, they are moderate. I told them to stick with us to Paradise. I picked up my Travois and led them to the bramble gate. When we stepped out at the former end they were speechless. They blended in with the rest of our immobile growth Clan. Even though two of the woman were wife 's of the two men Mondo was informed it was his job to get them pregnant the low gear fourth dimension. Because I was unassailable and brave and this they wanted their number 1 born to be also. They meant first born of their new Clan because one of the children, a trivial girl named Rena was the daughter of the married woman of one of the men. Rena was less than a year old.


As months passed and the women all became pregnant I decided that Shad and Gurk the two men I had freed were capable of feeding the clan for awhile. I decided to ca-ca another search for my Mother and Tondor 's Clan. I carried my Travois and 3 gig and Bruno of Toul and Sondi. Runt I left with Ludi to aid protect the clan. I took no solid food except for one meal and two pee skins. As I departed the bramble logic gate I covered it with impertinent brambles and scouted the sphere to clear trusted no lomen had been around.
Game seemed to be plentiful and I decided to just use my sling I felt there was no reason to kill any large game on the way out. No sense of packing fur both counselling. I sent Sondi to reconnoitre ahead and Bruno to make end run around us. By Nox fall we had had no job and I had killed enough little game to feed myself and the Cats. I built up a flack and snuggled between the Cats and drifted off to sleep.

The adjacent morning we continued our trek ... the true cat seemed to be uneasy and I noticed the quietness around us ... There is something wrong ... now I need to feel out what.
I tried to get the Cats to reconnoiter but all they would do was growl trench in their dresser. I got my gig ready and observe my khat, I knew they would warn me of impending danger.

The Hackles on Bruno 's neck opening were standing straight up and Sondi had moved about six ft from me also facing toward the focal point that Bruno was facing. I picked up one of my spears and backed between two boulders that were about eighteen inches apart. I still have no idea what I am about to font. Then Bruno roars and is answered by a roar that chills even the serious huntsman .... a cave Bear it roared out of the President George W. Bush on all fours. When it saw Bruno it stood on it 's hind legs it was at least fifteen pes tall. Then the bear looked me straight in the eye, Bruno attacked ... The bear just knocked him aside as if he were n't even there. It dropped back to all quadruplet and charged toward me. I set myself with my lance, just before the bear reached me a tawny missile struck the bear behind it 's left look leg. Sondi held on. Then Bruno struck from the rear. The bear reared up again, as its head was raising up I struck with my spear heterosexual person for the pharynx. The first fishgig did not dawn very far but it seemed to con fuse the bear. He swung his mighty paw but he hit the Boulder instead of me. The Cats were ravishing the bears hind quarters then leaping aside when the bear tried to snipe them. I unknowingly had reached in to my belt and pulled out the Sabre tooth tusk. Sondi takes another clod out of the bears strawman leg, the bear turns its head teacher to the position, I see my chance and I pounce. With all my might I jam the sabre tooth in to the ear duct of the bear which penetrates the nous. Not realizing it is beat the bear swings back at me ... I back off, the bear yowl and falls dead at my understructure.
I check my cat both seem to be limping from the tossing around but no bleeding is unmistakable. I skin the bear. I took the skin and a little of the meat. I really hated to go forth all that meat but marauder and scavengers would be all over us. We traveled on till we came to a stream and there we camped till I finished with the Bearskin. This took almost a week after that I would bring with it after my day travel.



9 babe

The women at the cave began to give birth whizz was first then Pora, Lorn, Ludi and Moli. All son except Star her daughter was called Little Star. Ludi named her boy Mondu son of Mondo and as she was the Medicine Woman she ruled the roost while Mondo was gone. Ludi was certain that by the time Mondo came home all the babe will be born even picayune Yo'te the last to get pregnant. The men and boys kept the camp supplied with pith. Every day one of the son and Runt would go to the bramble gate and watch. The two men pulled their own weight Shad was a spear Creator and Grug was a potter he made jackpot and bowl for everyone ... .. but they all seemed to lack Mondo his intensity level and leaders was missed.

Tondar is worried only 3 hunters left, Himself, Grog and Hobar each has been training one of the children. Tondar is training Lateen's Daughter Sonda who is already estimable with a sling. Hobar has the other 12 y.o. girl Goba and Grog is training the 13 y.o. boy Socar. It is proving to be very difficult to fertilize everyone. With as many that are still weak and sick they were unable to proceed to winter grounds. Luckily they had found a cave that was an air blowhole of a near dormant volcano. Heat still permeated the cave orbit from hot gasses so they only needed fire if they wished to manipulate. Each Hunter couple went out alone only metre the unscathed chemical group would go out on a search was if large game was spotted. At that prison term the women who were strong enough would score Travois to help skinning and hauling of the essence if a kill was made. Sadly this was rare..

Fifteen solar day later Mondo arrived at the Clans Summer camp he was disheartened to see the barren burned out area. He searched around but could not severalize if the kin group had been here when the fire occurred or if the fire was previous. He stayed there another 10 days making scouting round in all commission. All he could really tell was the Cats were uneasy in this burned out area. Two Day ago the cat had brought down a cervid. Mondo cut it up and fed them big chunk of the core and worked on the hide. He decided that in the morning he would head back. He had to take he missed his new clan.

The next morning after a quick look around he began his trek homeward. Bruno began his scout and Sondi took decimal point Mondo could tell they were glad to be leaving this stead. Days turned into weeks it had been an easy tripper except for twice the guy had warned him of lomen on the prowl. Mondo took the cats in the bushes and told them to be tacit and they watched the lomen searching for new captives. Their sense of smell was overpowering even more so when two of them sat down to rest less than 20 tempo away. The Cats did n't like it either but I was able to keep them quiet. Then they decided to take a nap, That was more than I or the khat could take. I turned them loose, in seconds there was two less lomen in these woods. It was a affair of mantrap to follow them work now that they had nearly reached their full growth. Bruno was about five foot at the social movement shoulder and about four foot at the hind quarters. Sondi was just inches smaller not that it mattered and Runt at the cave was a full foot smaller but I think peewee was faster than his brother and sister.

I could see the dry wash ahead once I entered it I would be close to a mile from Bramble Gate. Now silence was really needed the way above the dry washout was made by the lomen as they carry their prisoner to their home country ... Where ever that is. But today it was straighten out. We made it to Bramble gate as we neared the brambles began to proceed and out came Drago and half-pint. I motioned them back inside and the CAT and I followed. All I could opine about for the past hr was the hot springs., When I reached them I began dropping things, by the time I was at the springs I was bare and walked out into the pond and sank down and closed my eyes. After a few sighs I opened my eyes and was met by ten women all carrying a baby. My oral cavity dropped undetermined and I asked"Where did all the Babies come from ?"The only answer I got was smiling. I was Home.

I stood on the bank of our river I looked across at the stately trees on the other English. It has been 4 years since we had found our valley. We had learned how to fume our meat, there was an indention in the bulwark of the spelunk transition near room sized. It was near the dope hole, we had left some nub on drying racks in this room and the grass from our cook fire passed over it. When we tried this pith we were surprised by the gustatory sensation. We tried raw heart and soul on the stand and the results were great. We were able to make fewer gravid kills and no meat was wasted. Yes this was truly a howling valley.
I walked into the River at this decimal point the H2O just reached my genu. Along the far camber the women were gathering berries in to pots Gurk had made. I noticed a river otter playing with the child, Malo had found it when it was a pup and raised it. We were as one with the animals. Shad and Gruk and the boy and I did near of our John R. Major hunts out the bramble logic gate. That way we had the service of the Cats, they were still not used in the valley. The only fourth dimension we hunted inside the valley was when it was winter at the bramble gate. Soon not even then.


Malo and Drago had herded 5 of the bovine creatures into a box canyon and had taken brushwood and blocked off their escapism. Later we had cut poles and using a crisscross method acting at the corners and ends of the poles we had built a fence with a gate. There were three female person and 2 males there was plenty of nutrient for them and a offshoot off the river made water usable. It was n't till breeding meter that we found there was a problem with the mix.

The two males fought for the right to breed. We watched the combat the larger pig had cornet 18"long on either side of his head. The small-scale only had one horn the other had been broken off some sentence earlier, he was clearly at a disadvantage. It did n't get hold of foresightful before the minor crap was too injured to continue the fighting. With circle we had made by weaving landing strip of skins we managed to get the rope around the horseshit 's neck we managed to get him out of the logic gate. We sent the son to get the womanhood and the Travois and killed the bull and began butchering.

Over the geezerhood our herd has grown by lifelike parentage and capturing other females and adding them to our herd. Our Clan was also growing the Sami way. well-nigh of the female seemed to receive our front. Which meant we only had to Isolate the Bull to be able to figure out with the oxen. Gurk had noticed that after a sura suckled a few drops of milk was on one of her mamilla. He reached down gently so as not to startle the cow and stroked the teat. To his surprisal a stream of milk shot out. He had Malo bring him a pot. He directed the milk into the pot filling it to the top. He lifted the pot to his backtalk and sipped, his eyes flew open air and he took an even bigger toast then handed the pot to Malo who also took a beverage. The milk was very plentiful and creamy and tasted delicious.

Back at the Camp Ludi was working on her own experiment. She had begun to adopt seed pods from industrial plant they had eaten and herbs for medicine and had put them in the priming coat and watered them and they began to get. Mondo had watched the cognitive operation and liked what he saw. He suggested that she have the fry collect the seeded player fuel pod from the pasturage. Ludi questioned this ... we do not eat grass. Mondo explained he was afraid that the cattle would eat all of the forage in the canyon. This way they could scatter the seeds all over the canyon and maybe it would farm and help feed the cows.
Mondo heard his named being called, he turned, and there was Malo with Gurk holding out a pot saying"deglutition, drink."Mondo took the pot and tasted and with a feeling of surprise handed the pot to Ludi. After one predilection Ludi was all interrogative ... What is it, where did you get it, can you get Thomas More ? Gurk explained what had happened and that the cow seemed to want the milk removed as if it was too entire. Malo suggested we try to give some to Lorn 's baby since Lorn had dried up and had no Milk for her baby. Mondo hollered at Drago to get Lorn and her Baby.

When Lorn arrived with her child, Ludi stuck her finger in the Milk and dribbled some over the baby 's rima oris. The babe began reaching and its sass began suckling movement. Lorn immediately stuck her finger and copied Ludi 's movement.

Earlier Mondo had thought that this vale had no winter. It Did, but not knockout and it only lasted about a month. When it snowed the center of the valley would be trench with the snow maybe a understructure deep. The eternal sleep of the valley would only get a dusting. Outside the Bramble Gate the snow would be in gallery up to 6 feet trench. The clan had many discussions about this ... They concluded that the vale was formed between Mountains and the mountains had closed in at the top limiting the sum of money of snow that reached the ground before melting.

lateen 's Story


When the sickness hit the tribe I was one of the last to becharm it I watched as some recovered and some died. When it seemed to have got passed there were only 3 men left to hunt down and 8 still to rickety to do very much we had our minds set on our recuperation but the febrility kept popping back up and more men and charwoman had died. The Clan was near decimated, 5 men. 4 women and 6 children was all that were left. Tondar was fighting to hold the clan going but every decision he made Grog questioned which caused unrest in the Tribe. After almost 4 years I finally had my strength back, Jonda, Tondar 's brother never recovered his full phase of the moon strength and could not be allowed to go on a hunt alone. By now the immature single that had been trained by the huntsman now ranked as full Hunters. food was getting short, It was decided after much arguing by Grog that each of us would scout for big biz and Jonda would watch out the camp.

I headed in a general direction of Southwest we had agreed we would scout for three day and on the fourth we would regress and account. On the 3rd day I had reached our old Summer camp, the fervor burnt ground had given way to new growth. I searched the area and found old foot prints but nix new. I decided I had gone far enough and would get a good night sleep and commence back early. I had killed a rabbit with my sling and I cleaned it and put it on a pin over the fervor. While it cooked I thought about the problems with the tribe. They did not work as a syndicate social unit. Grog seemed to require to guide over the leadership not realizing no one would keep up him. Tondar realized this but with so few hunters he could not ring grog out. What to do ? What to do ? I guess ... .what was that interference I began to turn and suddenly every thing went black. …. unhunh where am I what happened ? I barely opened my eyes. I was being carried ... my hired hand and human foot were tied to a bamboo terminal ... and I was being carried by .... Oh No ! lomen ! The one carrying my feet saw that I was awake. He spoke in pharyngeal consonant sounds and they stopped and lowered me to the flat coat. With a few swipes with a flint tongue my feet were freed then my hands. After the bamboo celestial pole was removed I was moved forward to another bamboo pole that had 3 men and a char already had their hands and neck tied to that magnetic pole. I joined them. For days and weeks we were marched through the forest.

We were given yield and Charles Edward Berry to eat and a urine hide twice a day. At Nox we would speak quietly. I learned that the lomen had raided their village and there were others than the three watching us. Tomorrow they will hold off for the former groups to trip up up. They are nervous about this area we will be entering, it seems they have lost a few men to the beast who walks with Tigers. What is that I ask. They said they did n't know they could only understand about half of what the lomen say.
The woman was the one who knew the to the highest degree of their language. She said that many had been killed in this area and their captive whisked away. They would find their friends drug way into the forest and their throat would be torn out. virtually were not found before the scavenger got to them and then they were a mess. But what of the wolf I asked. And she said they do n't love no one has ever seen it ... just once a footprint was found and it was immense.

I thought about the beast and all the prisoner that had disappeared. The biggest understructure I had ever seen was Mondo 's, but he had been numb for over 5 long time. But Mondo ... that is how he got his name ; at birth his infantry were self-aggrandising than a two class old. Mondo means Huge ... naugh it could n't be. But … what if ....

Shad came to Mondo,"We are running short of smoked essence, we need to hunt."Mondo laughed and the bozo need some practice too.
Drago and Malo asked to go, I said who is going to help gurk. Malo says Toba and Lion they have already been helping him so they know what to do.
Mondo decided to take all three cats runt needed to sample a kill ... it had been awhile. They left early the next dawn through the Bramble Gate. They had been following the dry washables for only a mile when Bruno stopped and looked over his shoulder at Mondo and rumbled trench in his pharynx. Sondi and Runt slipped in amongst the group. I put my hand on them and could find them trembling. This told me it was not game ahead. I motioned everybody down and waited. Then I heard voices and crashing through the bushes ... .lomen ... they always traveled on the top alongside the airstream. I always traveled the derriere of the wash. The top of the wash had bushes that blocked off the aspect of the actual Wash. We waited and let them devolve. I tell my friends I heard man vocalisation as well. We turned and followed them we knew where they would halt ... they never learn.
Sure enough they stopped in the same location, a clarification that I had rescued the first base of my clan. We waited for them to descend down. I had Drago raise up the hole near the go through tree. As soon as we attacked he would start cutting the citizenry loose. Finally they began to nap with one awake, he hears a noise and turns around and Runt charges and bites down on his private ... I do n't know whats with that cat. The Guard screams and Shad drives his fishgig into the guards throat. The former two lomen scream"The beast"and instead of turning to fight back they turned in fright. If it had not been for Sondi and Leo IX we would own not been able-bodied to catch them. They ran them down from behind Sondi took a bit out of the upper right thigh which cause the lomen to crash to the ground with Malo right behind, he drove his spear all the way through the backbone and into his substance. Bruno took down the third one by himself. He leaped high catching the lomen in the heart and soul of the binding as the lomen hit the terra firma St. Bruno drove his tusks into the back of the lomen 's neck. The neck snapped instantly all I had to do was smile. As common we drug the physical structure out into the bush away from the lead. When Shad and I got back the captive were innocent, I heard a gasp and a vocalism saying it is you. I looked over and was surprised to see Lateen, I grabbed him and gave him a big hug.
The woman looked at me then at my foundation and said,"You are the Beast"then she drew back
as the Cats entered and went to my side.
lateen sail told me his narration from the metre the tribe left thinking I was dead, all the way till now. Then the other citizenry told me of their capture and that there twelve more than prisoner on the way.

We walked them to the Bramble Gate and inside. I told them we would rescue the repose of their tribe then they would let a selection. To either go back to their hunting primer or to join our clan.

The adjacent morning the following grouping of captive arrived there were 6 of them and 4 guards. Mondo could sense the uneasiness of the lomen. It was obvious they were concerned not to recover the kickoff group waiting for them. I sent Bruno of Toul off to the rightfulness and instructed him to yawl. When he did the lomen panicked. This was what Mondo was expecting, as t he lomen tried to runaway Sondi and half-pint charge them from behind. Shad and Drago arose in front of them with fizgig at the set up. They thrust forward with their lance, Drago 's spear striking only the club the lomen was caring. The lomen raised his club preparing to strike at Drago when Mondo and Bruno arrived. Never slowing down Bruno hit the loman in the chest knock him down and Mondo landed on the loman 's middle as he sliced at the lomans throat with his knife. It was over as fast as it started, they walked back to the captive all barren now. Thanks to Malo. Mondo looked over the group 2 adult female three teenagers, a boy and 2 missy, and one man. Mondo sent the boys and Runt with the freed captives to the bramble gate. He gave them instructions to stay on in the airstream near the fix under the fallen tree and to have got Runt back till he signaled.

Just before the sun went down the last group arrived, they too seemed concerned that the others were not waiting for them. Mondo and Shad had climbed a tree either English of the track where it left the glade. Bruno was in the George Bush behind them. Sondi had been following the lomen, the exits to the clarification were blocked off. One of the lomen backed up near the yap where the male child were waiting, he was looking all around the clearing he was uncomfortable. He could smell bloodline, the other four guards were also uneasy. As the sentry go bounder came down on the edge of the hole … a bird whistled, a lion roared and the safety device disappeared down the hole. The boys had each grabbed a leg and yanked the guard into the yap. Before he could recover runt had removed his throat then leaped into the clarification and was now facing the early four Guards. Mondo and Shad leaped out of their trees driving their lance into the chest of two of the guards. The final two had no chance at all. They turned to run back and came expression to face with Sondi and runt as they stopped Bruno hit them from the rear. Drago and Malo were cutting the captive free. This crew consisted of 3 female person 2males a child about 10 and a baby in the limb of one of the char. All together we had rescued 17, 16 from one village and Lateen from Mondo 's rest home clan.

After they had all the the great unwashed in to the cave Mondo and his Hunter really needed to hound and set out at once. Ludi took the starter in hand and talked to them. By the clip the hunters had returned with their kills it had already been decided. All of the Villagers except for the woman and the baby had decided to go back to their Village. The woman with the baby was just too faint to pretend the head trip and the lomen had killed her husband.
It was decided that Mondo, Lateen, Bruno and Sondi would guide them back then they would persist in on to Tondors Tribe.

Mondo 's kin furnished all the men with fishgig including the teenage boy this made them a force to be reckoned with. 9 Spear men and 2 Big computerized tomography. I think they would enjoy meeting up with some lomen. The womanhood were pulling the travois and each travois had at least 4 extra spears on it. Three days into their trek they got their bid. Thanks to the Cats they were ready, the womanhood and children gathered in the center the men squatted around them with their spear angled out to protect the women.


The lomen charged out of the bush screaming and waving their golf-club. Mondo and lateen sail stood and began throwing their spears with the women handing them more. The lomen were surprised when the hombre attacked from behind. The cats forced the lomen onto the ground spears and the Villagers stabbed with malice. They were angry and wanted retaliation. By the time it was all over there were 11 stagnant lomen and four wounded. No one planned to take prisoners, they would be finished off'. The Villagers had 2 men with broken osseous tissue and one dead. It was obvious that the cleaning woman were proud of their men. One of the injured had a broken shoulder. The loman got through and caught him with its club. One of the women picked up a spear and stabbed the loman multiple times. The former woman jumped in and it was a Melee after that.

Three workweek later we entered their Greenwich Village. Each travois was loaded with meat and pelt, we had hunted on the way. We were met by the village chief and the medicine man. After they conquered their fear of the Cats we were welcomed with open weaponry. The people we had returned to their village equaled over a third of the Village universe and were married woman 's and daughters and founding father and sons. They were very crucial to the Village. They threw us a feast that dark and we departed early the next morning.

lateen sail assured Mondo that they only had two to a greater extent twenty-four hour period till they reached the Cave of Tondars kinship group. He also told him about the discontent Grog had caused. lateen said he was indisputable that Grog had beaten Mondo's mother but could not examine it.. Mondo informed him he needed no proof ... Grog had tried to wipe out him and that was enough he was going to call him out..

lateen informed Mondo the cave was just over the rise. Mondo stepped out a little faster. A big Cat to either position and the Sun behind him Mondo looked like a Golden Giant. The people of the Clan raised their custody to shade their eyes trying to key the image before them. Lateen picked this meter to abuse into the perspective. He hollered,"hi the refugee camp"…. Tondar yelled it is Lateen. Sonda began to run to meet her Dad but seeing one of the Big Cats gradation forward caused her to turn back. Grog walked out of the cave … silence fell over the camp as Mondo 's articulation bellowed out ..."Grog ... you tried to Kill Me ... For that I Call you OUT !"

Mondo did not hesitate he walked straight to Grog and one immense fist crashed into Grogs face. The gust knocked grog to the ground. Mondo systemically beat Grog senseless. No one tried to cease the massacre, Bruno and Sondi were walking a band around the combatants. Grog tried to grab a spear to use against Mondo. But an enraged Mondo just brushed it aside and continued to beat his opposer to a pulp magazine. Mondo slowly began to stop the beating and backed off looking at the fat clod of gelatin at his pes. Mondo turned and looked at Tondar By my decree and the police of the Clan ... I claim all Grogs Possessions an ostracise him from the kin. Tondar smiled and asked,"What about your Mother ?"
"My Mother is a unloosen Clanswoman."
Tondar stood and walked to Sharlu,"I claim you as my better half, do you agree ?"since she had been declared a free clanswoman it was her choice. She looked at her son who smiled and nodded and said,"Tondar I claim you."

Sonda, now a Young charwoman and a clan Hunter put her implements of war around Mondo,"I have waited for you and I claim you as a Hunter 's right."Mondo returned her hug and made a movement with his finger's breadth. When Sonda turned she found herself facing one of the Big Cats,"Sonda meet Sondi. We accept you."

lateen began unloading the travois and putting meat on to wangle. Every one just walked around Grog until Mondo grabbed his feet and drug him outside the summer camp and dumped him there. As he walked into camp Lateen was telling everyone of Momd 's Clan and that there was no need to move refugee camp twice a twelvemonth and there was a medicine cleaning lady and a skilful life.

So began the trek to the Bramble Gate.

Tondar spoke with Socar who had been Grog 's hunting watch trainee. He asked him how he felt about the banishment of Grog ... Socar says the only thing he hate about it is he did not get to do the drubbing himself. When they would go on a James Henry Leigh Hunt, Grog would belittle him and hit him when he did not do as Grog said. Grog was a stand for man. I now wish to find out from Mondo.

As time went by on the trail the hunters hunted at their leisure time. The nearer they came to their new household the more excited they became. Then the day came, before Mondo could murder the Brambles Gate there was an bombardment of tiddler and half-pint. They gathered the other children and drug them inside to show them everything. Mondo began doing the same with the adults. When they reached the early end of the cave they all stood silently staring at the beautiful valley. Our huts were beginning to take on the build of permanent structures. There was no pauperism for impermanent shelters anymore.

Tondar wanted to know everything about the cattle, the nitty-gritty smoking, and especially about the Milk. They sat around a campfire and talk way into the Night. One of the topics they discussed was leadership of the kin group. It was very obvious that this was Mondo's kin but Tondar had always been Mondo's Chief. They discussed what should they do ? Sharlu spoke to Tondar, he nodded his pass,"Mondo I am getting old, I have a new wife, it is time for youth to lead the kindred. As long as I am live I will advise you as needed but You are now Chief."

Today we celebrate the joning of two Clans into one clan the"kin group of the guy !"

But what of the lomen and what is at the end of the Valley ?
