Mission 207

Mission:
Ants! There must be millions of them! I watch as the millions of ants swarm over my tent. When the ants back away all I see is a few bits of cloth and wood, all the rest was eaten by them! Suddenly a few of the ants spot me and start to run torward me. Quickly I yank out a jar and snatch up those few ants, twisting the top of the jar untill it's closed tightly. Before the ants attacked I had time to poke a few air hole in the top of the jar. The other ants seem to notice that some of their comrads have been taken and start to rush toward me. Then I do the only thing that's sensible to do when an angry horde of ants is chasing you, ready to chew you apart with their tiny pinchers, I ran. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me back toward Ublaz's palace with the ants always right behind me. I'm almost halfway to the place and the ants start to turn away from me and run in a different direction. I stop and turn to watch the ants. They start to run east, toward the shore. Then, they seem to disappear into the ground. Confused, I run over to the place that they disappeared at. I poke around the ground with my footpaw and flip over a small rock to reveil a small hole, about the size of one of the ants. I found their nest! But just to make sure, I step back a few feet and throw a rock at the hole. As soon as the rock hits, a swarm of ants rush out of the hole and attack it. I wait a while and they settle down and return to their nest. It was their nest all right! I run back to the place, grab a shovel, and run back to the nest. Quickly I dig out a bunch of dirt and back away. Just as I expected, the ants swarmed out of their, now uncovered, nest, looking for something to attack. I throw a piece of wood and it lands about a foot from where they are standing. They run toward it and start to attack. Working quickly, I run over to the nest and see something. It's an ant, but it's bigger then all the rest. Their queen! I throw a large glob of dirt at her which crushes her. With their queen dead, the other ants can't reproduce. I set fire to the rest of the ants as they attacked another tent. I start to walk back toward Ublaz's palace with the captured ants for him, mission complete!
