“I know what we should do!” Beige Bailey exclaimed.

  “What! What should we do?” asked Mahogany Mahoney.

  “Cal should battle Bruce!” Beige Bailey exclaimed.

  “I don’t think so,” said Cal. “But why not? said Maroon Max.

  “I don’t think I could do it,” said Cal.

  “Why not?” said Beige Bailey.

  “I still don’t know,” Cal said.

  “Pleeeeeease,” said everybody, but Cal.

  Cal stood there and thought about it for a few seconds. What if he failed? What would happen if Bruce Black didn’t want to battle? How would he respond to his friends if he lost? But he decided to do it because having color was much better than staying black for the rest of his life.

  “Ok fine, I’ll do it,” said Cal. “Hooray!” everybody cheered. So the fight began.

  Cal strapped on his boots, pulled on his armor and the battle was about to start.

  Meanwhile, Bruce Black was putting on his armor and sharpening his claws on a stone. Bruce was also making sure that he had extra swords that were fully sharpened.
