Friday/title:Toucging Spirit Bear/chapter 11 &12/min:27/pgs:88-102

Cole griped the mouse tightly but e had no energy so he brought it to his mouth fast and he shut his lips. The mouse was biting Cole's lips and tongue in order to get out. Cole didn't give up, he bit the mouse and it still survived, it was still squirming and biting Cole's tongue. Cole felt the mouse's head go in between his back teeth, with every energy he still had left, Cole bit the mouse's head. It was dead now and Cole chewed the mouse, he wanted to spit it out but he remembered of the dead bird. Food was energy and energy was life. As Cole chewed the mouse, Cole felt some salty liquids fill his mouth. Cole finished the mouse but then he thought that the mosquitoes took more energy then he could replenish, Cole was angered that the . Then he saw two Seagulls eating his vomit, and that it had big chunks of fish! Cole knew what to do, he had to eat his vomit to replenish his energy. Chunk after chunk, Cole ate all of his vomit.
Cole was very thirsty so he made a hole in the dirt and then saw a little bit of water because it started to rain right now. At that very moment Cole saw the Spirit Bear again! Cole understands that it was his time to die, he gets all the spit he can gather and raises his head to spit at the bear, Cole misses big time and that hurt Cole very much. The Spirit Bear came to Cole's spit and licked it up, the onto Cole. Cole wanted the bear to kill him. At that moment, time went slow and it stopped raining and Cole realized that how beautiful the Earth was and that Cole didn't care if he died. Cole lifted his arm to the Spirit Bear's white coat, it was nice and warm. All Cole wanted was to touch the thing that was going to kill him. Cole was afraid but not by death, he accepted it but by helpless to himself. Cole didn't understand that why the bear didn't back away, then Cole figured it out, the Spirit Bear trusted him! The bear went to the lake in a stream motion and it started to swim and then Cole couldn't see it any more. Some more seagulls came and stared to pick off some of Cole's meat. Now Cole knew how death felt like. Cole couldn't move and the seagulls were pulling him to a rock. Cole went to a daze and he felt a sweet liquid fill his mouth, he spit it out but more filled his mouth, so Cole just swallowed it and wanted to drown to death. Then Cole heard a voice," Hang on there,Champ." Cole opened his eyes and saw Garvey over him and Edwin, the elder Tlingit. They both took Cole to the hospital in a rush and at the dock was a big group of people there to watch. Cole was on the bed in the hospital and Garvey said that he was his by a tree that was knocked down by the thunder but Cole wanted to tell him that it was the Spirit Bear but he was to weak to talk. A female Tlingit said that it wasn't a tree, and she showed then the marks that Cole had on him. Garvey was worried and Cole managed to say some words, "I'm O.K", but Garvey said that he wasn't o.k.
