"Goodness!" Tiga gasped after Shadow explained what was going on. 

Shadow sighed, knowing that the next part would be hard to ask, "Do you guys, want to come to the capital with me. Maybe we could talk some sense into him!" 

Rover shook his head, "If he made the law in the first place we can't just talk him into changing it. We would need him to be over thrown. And to that we need another owlox or fowl to challenge the thrown." 

"I'm with Rover on this. We need more of a plan, Shadow" Cloud chimed in. 

"Ok, I could always do that, there have been females who've taken the thrown before. And their's no age limit, as long as you know what your getting into." 

Shadow's friends gave her a worried look, "A-are you sure about doing that?" Rover asked. 

Shadow shrugged, "I just need a weapon". 

"And just where do you plan on getting one?" Tiga asked, the slightest bit of worry in her voice. 

Shadow stopped and thought for a moment, "Isn't there an old village that has a few weapon shops still? Just south in the bad part of the continent?" One of Shadow's hands laid on her him and the other on her chin as she looked up still thinking, "Or a black smith fair north that makes weapons for armies? Doesn't he also give weapons to people that pass a challenge?" 

"W-Well yes, but both are kinda, dangerous. Right? They journey to the black smith is hard, and the other place we could be stabbed." Rover replied, fear over taking his voice and visibly shaking. Cloud put an arm around Rover. 

"He's right. We can't go!" Cloud almost growled protectively. 

Both Tiga and Shadow raised an eyebrow at his tone of voice, cloud wasn't the type to get defensive easily, or at least not show it in his voice or body langue. 

Shadow sighed again, but in defeat, "Ok, do you guys have any ideas?" 

Rover suddenly lit up and ran off. 

------------

A few minutes later Rover returned with a book, "I have an idea!" he shouted as he opened the book. The page he flipped to had information about a temple that had a sword inside. Inside the temple was booby trapped like crazy, but the village near by let people go in and try to get the sword because a legend in the village said that only people with strong souls could reach the sword and get out of the temple. 

"I think this is our best option. It's save for you guys as long as you don't go in and if I get out I get my weapon." Shadow said looking the books text over again. 

Tiga sighed shakily, "Well. Alright then." 

With that the fore friends went out to find the village of toxican.
