| Anna awoke to squabbling between Buzzy and Dan. The problem was that they had located where Anna and Ozzy were staying but were afraid the Geese Police would spot them flying in. The solution was to disguise Dan as to looking like a Buzzard so nobody would think anything about the two of them landing up on the mountain. It took some talking for Buzzy to convince Dan that it would look strange for a duck to land up there, after all, there were no dams around. Dan finally agreed but complained the whole way in and that was when Anna was woke up. “I’ll never forgive myself if any of my kin see me flying around disguised to be a buzzard. I’d rather be caught flying without any feathers at all. I don’t have to remind you that I am the most noble of all ducks, I… am a Dam Duck! I shouldn’t have to be dressed up as a buzzard! I am a Dam Duck!”‘ “I’d like to put a dam on that mouth.” Buzzy replied, as they came in for a landing. Ozzy osprey came out of the mouth of one of the caves to see what the fuss was about. He arrived to find Dan trying to wipe off the black shoe polish Buzzy had used to disguise his green tinted feathers and web-toed feet. “Disgusting disguise if I ever saw one.” Dan exclaimed. “I thought you looked rather distinguished.” Buzzy stated, then asked, “What do you think Ozzy?” “I think you two make enough noise to give away the best of disguises. It is just a good thing the Geese Police are out of ear-shot.” Ozzy replied, ushering them into the security of the cave. “Hello Princess.” Buzzy said, upon seeing Anna. “Hello Buzzy. Hello Dan.” Anna welcomed. “We have news of how to get to your parents.” Dan offered in an optimistic tone. The group gathered around Ozzy as he drew in the dirt a map of the Dark Queen’s mountain. It showed the Dark Queen’s castle on the mountain top. Below it was a long stretch of mountain side which had a road that traveled along up the mountain side at an angle. about half way up was where Buzzy drew and “X”. next page |  Ozzy and Dan  |
