He
had
no
time
to
change
his
mind
,
for
Kotick
's
head
was
out
and
his
teeth
sunk
in
the
blubber
of
the
young
seal
's
neck
.
Then
he
threw
himself
back
on
his
haunches
and
hauled
his
enemy
down
the
beach
,
shook
him
,
and
knocked
him
over
.
Then
Kotick
roared
to
the
seals
:
"
I
've
done
my
best
for
you
these
five
seasons
past
.
I
've
found
you
the
island
where
you
'll
be
safe
,
but
unless
your
heads
are
dragged
off
your
silly
necks
you
wo
n't
believe
.
I
'm
going
to
teach
you
now
.
Look
out
for
yourselves
!

Limmershin
told
me
that
never
in
his
life
--
and
Limmershin
sees
ten
thousand
big
seals
fighting
every
year
--
never
in
all
his
little
life
did
he
see
anything
like
Kotick
's
charge
into
the
nurseries
.
He
flung
himself
at
the
biggest
sea
catch
he
could
find
,
caught
him
by
the
throat
,
choked
him
and
bumped
him
and
banged
him
till
he
grunted
for
mercy
,
and
then
threw
him
aside
and
attacked
the
next
.
You
see
,
Kotick
had
never
fasted
for
four
months
as
the
big
seals
did
every
year
,
and
his
deep-sea
swimming
trips
kept
him
in
perfect
condition
,
and
,
best
of
all
,
he
had
never
fought
before
.
His
curly
white
mane
stood
up
with
rage
,
and
his
eyes
flamed
,
and
his
big
dog
teeth
glistened
,
and
he
was
splendid
to
look
at
.
703
Old
Sea
Catch
,
his
father
,
saw
him
tearing
past
,
hauling
the
grizzled
old
seals
about
as
though
they
had
been
halibut
,
and
upsetting
the
young
bachelors
in
all
directions
;
and
Sea
Catch
gave
a
roar
and
shouted
:
"
He
may
be
a
fool
,
but
he
is
the
best
fighter
on
the
beaches
!
Do
n't
tackle
your
father
,
my
son
!
He
's
with
you
!
"

Kotick
roared
in
answer
,
and
old
Sea
Catch
waddled
in
with
his
mustache
on
end
,
blowing
like
a
locomotive
,
while
Matkah
and
the
seal
that
was
going
to
marry
Kotick
cowered
down
and
admired
their
men-folk
.
It
was
a
gorgeous
fight
,
for
the
two
fought
as
long
as
there
was
a
seal
that
dared
lift
up
his
head
,
and
when
there
were
none
they
paraded
grandly
up
and
down
the
beach
side
by
side
,
bellowing
.
705
At
night
,
just
as
the
Northern
Lights
were
winking
and
flashing
through
the
fog
,
Kotick
climbed
a
bare
rock
and
looked
down
on
the
scattered
nurseries
and
the
torn
and
bleeding
seals
.
"
Now
,
"
he
said
,
"
I
've
taught
you
your
lesson
.
"
706
"
My
wig
!
"
said
old
Sea
Catch
,
boosting
himself
up
stiffly
,
for
he
was
fearfully
mauled
.
"
The
Killer
Whale
himself
could
not
have
cut
them
up
worse
.
Son
,
I
'm
proud
of
you
,
and
what
's
more
,
I
'll
come
with
you
to
your
island
--
if
there
is
such
a
place
.
"
707
"
Hear
you
,
fat
pigs
of
the
sea
.
Who
comes
with
me
to
the
Sea
Cow
's
tunnel
?
Answer
,
or
I
shall
teach
you
again
,
"
roared
Kotick
.

There
was
a
murmur
like
the
ripple
of
the
tide
all
up
and
down
the
beaches
.
"
We
will
come
,
"
said
thousands
of
tired
voices
.
"
We
will
follow
Kotick
,
the
White
Seal
.
"
709
Then
Kotick
dropped
his
head
between
his
shoulders
and
shut
his
eyes
proudly
.
He
was
not
a
white
seal
any
more
,
but
red
from
head
to
tail
.
All
the
same
he
would
have
scorned
to
look
at
or
touch
one
of
his
wounds
.
710
A
week
later
he
and
his
army
(
nearly
ten
thousand
holluschickie
and
old
seals
)
went
away
north
to
the
Sea
Cow
's
tunnel
,
Kotick
leading
them
,
and
the
seals
that
stayed
at
Novastoshnah
called
them
idiots
.
But
next
spring
,
when
they
all
met
off
the
fishing
banks
of
the
Pacific
,
Kotick
's
seals
told
such
tales
of
the
new
beaches
beyond
Sea
Cow
's
tunnel
that
more
and
more
seals
left
Novastoshnah
.
Of
course
it
was
not
all
done
at
once
,
for
the
seals
are
not
very
clever
,
and
they
need
a
long
time
to
turn
things
over
in
their
minds
,
but
year
after
year
more
seals
went
away
from
Novastoshnah
,
and
Lukannon
,
and
the
other
nurseries
,
to
the
quiet
,
sheltered
beaches
where
Kotick
sits
all
the
summer
through
,
getting
bigger
and
fatter
and
stronger
each
year
,
while
the
holluschickie
play
around
him
,
in
that
sea
where
no
man
comes
.
