Wrtiting Contest B.Everest's little WishEverest only being a little kia still often daydreams about many different thing, adventure, yeti's and mythical creatures, even finding magical treasure. Though like every young kia growing up in a house hold where even your big sister has her own feathers, Everest can't help by be (even more) green with Envy. Everest likes to think that her feathers will be as white as the snow the cove rest the tops of great mountains the tower above cites. Everest can see her getting her feather from her parents, but she hopes that she will get a chance to earn them the way she thinks would be fitting. She believes the only way of getting her feathers is by making it to the top of Everest on her first Expedition.
Though it would take many months of preparation and training the little one practices every day by climbing trees, furniture and any thing else that looks like a challenge. With her determination this little girl has a lot of drive and is always up to no good. The Expedition can be rather hard and dangerous. The first step in getting to Everest, you need to head to Nepal a small country above India and possible meet up with other climber and have a crew as well, cook, guide and such. The Climbers take a train to a village that is close to the base and from their they hike to the First camp, known as base camp that has run down stone building, where you provide the roof. This is where companions and the radio team stay behind, this way if some one is in need of help the radio team can contact the nearest village. From there Climbers start heading up the mountain, one the way are four camps that climbers have to stop at, Valley of Silence, Camp 2, Lhotse wall and The Deathzone. At each camp climbers must stop and rest to stabilize and get use to the altitude before beginning their climb again. The Deathzone, is the camp right before the Summit and only consist of tents that the climbers trek with them. Many Climbers have to turn back at this point do to sudden storms, and bad weather. If your chances are good and you can continue its highly suggest to bring a oxygen with you do to how thin the air is at the peek. The Climb can be any where from a couple of days to two or three weeks to make it to the top.
Everest thinks if she is able to do this she will be able to manage anything and is more then worthy of her feathers. The climb challenges one's will, power and devotion, just like the challenges we may have to face in life. Though Mt. Everest is breath taking its dangerous as well, and Danger is Everest's middle name.

HOLY MOTHER OF AM I READING THAT RIGHT yes i am ;v; -hugs Rhaegal- I'm planning on exchanging the potion though... after what I wrote, I feel it'd be a huge disservice to grow him anyway, it'll fit a lot more to do something else. It was really fun reading all the other entries though, y'all did great!
