234 Second Stage of the Competition (3)

Raz sharpened some arrows and tied a strong flexible branch across to make a good bow. He pulled the string in order to see its strength. He smiled at his success and looked at Adrianna, who was also making a bow. When she had made it, both of them laughed mildly at each other. 

"Let's go," Raz said. They left their backpacks in the shelter and walked towards the place Raz had mentioned. It was higher up and they had tough time going there. It was noon and Adrianna couldn't help but think that she had to find the inn. 

It took them twenty minutes to reach the spot. 

"There's nothing here," exclaimed Adrianna feeling that she had wasted her time. 

Suddenly Raz gestured her to stay quiet. He pulled her behind a pine tree. They saw a herd of deer walking magestically in that snow. There were no more than seven of them but they looked beautiful against the backdrop of snow. Raz put his arrow on the bow and pulled it making a twang sound.
