Chapter 127: Santino’s Survival School Part 2

Santino showed Olivia and Oliver how to build a few different kinds of traps, bait them with nuts from the woods, and wait for some hungry critter to wander into them. It really was amazing how much could be accomplished with just a knife.

He gave Olivia and Oliver each a chance to catch something. They got a squirrel and a rabbit. “Wow, we are real hunters now,” Olivia said. “You are,” Serena said. “You’re fast learners.” “We can survive anything,” Oliver said. Santino showed them how to skin the squirrel and the rabbit, then how to make a spit for a fire so they could cook. It was just about lunch time when the rabbit and squirrel were ready to eat. “It tastes funny,” Olivia said, wrinkling her nose. Serena sat down beside them and used her own knife to cut off a strip of rabbit meat. “That’s because it isn’t seasoned with any salt or anything,” she explained. “It will keep you strong and healthy out in the woods, though.” “Oliver and I will eat like kings out in the woods,” Olivia said, tapping her knife against one of the rabbit bones. “Let’s go check the fishing traps,” Santino suggested. He had showed them how to weave little nets out of grass and they’d stuck them in the stream to float in the current. Fish would get stuck in them from the current and be unable to swim against it to get back out. Olivia and Oliver waded into the stream with Santino. They lifted their nets up to check for fish. Olivia frowned when she looked in her net.

“They are just tiny minnows,” she grumbled. Santino laughed.

“That can happen sometimes,” he said. “Still, it is important for you to know how to catch fish when there is water nearby.” “What if we can’t catch anything?” Oliver asked, his eyes wide and terrified. Santino chuckled.
