Chapter 3 Feast or Famine

                The golden chick quickly flies towards the mountain landing at the mouth of a cave halfway up the mountain. As it waddled towards the cave it’s two ‘siblings’ landed following behind it. Inside the cave are a small flowing stream, and many small glowing worms. The chicks quickly started devouring the worms. After finally eating after flying for the last few hour

                The first of the three to wake up was the golden chicks who once again ate its fill, before it jumped into the stream. Once it left the stream a soft clicking reverberated through the cave, originating from deeper in the cave. The other chicks had woken up by this point and the pitch back chick quickly wobbled towards the source of the noise. The two other chicks quickly followed and the three came across a several huge moths suspended in the air. The three chicks approached the still moths, but the black chick gets stuck in a web. As soon as the chick got stuck a ten foot long spider appears from the back of the cave rushing towards the chicks. The black chick managed to cut through the web with her back and all three managed to flee to the mouth of the cave. Outside the cave was complete darkness.
