Bear pulled out the remains of the scorpion from his pocket and placed it on the end of his knife. Then he held it over the flames and it started to sizzle.

“First scorpion, I imagine?” he asked Sophie.

“Um. Yes. It’s not exactly on my normal supper menu.” Sophie looked a bit worried.

“It’s like most things we fear,” Bear said.

“What do you mean?”

“I mean that the taste isn’t too bad actually. It is just our fear that tells us it will be awful. Same with most other things,” Bear told her. “When we face up to the thing we are scared of, we often find it isn’t so bad.” He paused. “Here, try it!”

“Really? I don’t think I can.”

“Well, just try. Let’s have half each. It’s only tiny but it will warm us up, give us a small hit of protein and go some way to helping you over your fears, maybe.”

That makes sense, Sophie thought.

“I guess,” she said.

“We’ll eat it at the same time,” Bear said as he handed Sophie half of the remains of the scorpion’s body. “One, two, three …”

To her surprise the scorpion didn’t actually taste much different to the burnt sausages at Camp. She smiled at Bear and kept chewing.

“Well, it’s not great … but it isn’t too bad, I figure.”

“Good for you, girl!”
