Harpy lunges in for the kill!

Chanyana lets out an ear-piercing shreek!

A crack of thunder can be heard, off in the distance (from the direction of Mount Olympus to be precise)!

A portal opens beneath Chantyana, whisking her away from Harpy, and harms way!

Harpy Caws in rage, beats her wings in anger and takes to the sky trying to reestablish Chantyana's scent. . . until she remembers the tastey Ace! Harpy flies back towards the heroes!

Ace and Britannica begin to stir. . .
Ace: Oww, I can't believe we fell for that
Britannica: Omigoodgrief! Look at all that blood on you Ace!
Ace: [whaaaa!]
Britannica: Oops, sorry it's the tomato sauce [um....  uh huh! ...  ]
Ace: [izzat so?]
Britannica: I wonder what happened to Chantyana? Why would she leave us here, when she could have easily finished us off?
Ace: I don't know? It doesn't seem her st. . .

Just then. . .

Harpy: Caw! Caw! Time for Harpy to eat Ace! Caw! Caw! [Harpy dives towards the two heroes]

A&B: [whaaaa!]
Ace: Brit, I think that bell and mirror would be handy, right about now!
Brit: Right! Um. . . I thought you had it!?!
Ace: What!?! You had it!
Brit: Oh dear. . .
[Both heroes start madly rumaging through their posessions]
A & B: No. . . Not there. . . Maybe in there. . .nope. . .

Harpy: Caw! Caw!

A & B: [Look up at Harpy's outstretched talons]: Oh, boy!
