"Turn back or die!" a shrill voice shouted from somewhere outside the wagon. The whole thing stopped, knocking Will, Logan, and Rebeca to the ground.
"Aw, you don't mean that, do you? Why, I'm almost as much a part of this forest as you folk are. After all, I'm the one who's been hauling all these poor saps out to meet ya," the driver said.
"Stop your attempts at trickery. I know you care not for these woods," the shrill one said.
"Don't get up, I'll figure out what's going on," Cal said.
"Wait! How are you gonna fight whatever's out there?" Logan asked.
"That depends," Cal said holding out his hand. A moment later, his cards appeared in it, "on whether or not I could do that."
"Ooh, whatcha got?" Rebeca asked, crawling back to her feet and rushing over to Cal.
Cal smiled and pulled out one treasure card, causing all the others to vanish. The treasure card also disappeared, but was replaced a half second later by a floating, transluscent, yellow version of itself that read:
Boxing Turtle Gloves
Two Hands
Plus two in combat
Two turtle shells appeared on Cal's hands, "This is so stupid."
"That's all you got? A plus two?" Will asked.
"It's the first fight, how much could I really need?" Cal asked.
