Inside a cavern, Ping is nestled in Mother Yeti’s bosom when BABY YETI looks at its new sibling with uncertainty. As Ping wakes up and tries to search for a way out, Baby Yeti curiously approaches at her and jabs her with a claw, wanting more fun out from her. Ping kicks herself up into a handstand, and Baby Yeti barks with joy and tries to copy her. It’s King Kong and Ann Darrow moment, except that Ping is still scared of the monster. Meanwhile, the gang is walking inside the mine tunnel, looking for the Yeti’s nest. After they arrive, Anastasia orders Dmitry to take Tweedy back to the train and get the engine smoking. Ahead, the tunnel widens into a cavern and they see other passengers from the train hung upside-down from spikes, completely frozen. …show more content…
Further inside the cavern, they spot Ping with the entire Yeti family, FATHER YETI, mother yeti, BROTHER YETI, and baby yeti.
Dr. Poh is fascinated by their existence and believes that he can communicate with them. As Dr.Poh walks out to communicate, the yetis all roar and pounce on him in a brutal, ravenous scrum. While the yetis fight over the food, Baby yeti holds Ping tighter after spotting the gangs. Baxter urges Anastasia to run away with Ping, while he’s buying some time with a jewelry. Wilhelm insists he will also join Baxter in his sacrifice. Amazed at their selflessness, Anastasia blesses them. While Baxter captivates baby yeti with Anastasia’s diamond ring, Anastasia quickly holds Ping and leaves. Wilhelm shoots the oil lamp sitting on the nest which causes the oil to explode into a raging fire. The yetis look back at Baxter, while Wilhelm escapes from the cavern leaving Baxter behind. Unable to find his way out, Baxter throws a bottle with a powder in it and lets the yetis to inhale the power while he sets up a dynamite. With an explosion, the cave is swallowed by
darkness. Wilhelm looks back at the explosion and smiles. Inside the train, Wilhelm informs everyone that Baxter is dead and he was crying and urinating because he was scared. As they get ready to take off, the fact that Baxter is dead hits Tweedy hard. Anastasia tries to comfort him, but Tweedy is still furious because Anastasia won’t understand him because she’s a duchess and her adversities would not be comparable to his. Next to Tweedy, Ping who lost her parents and Dmitry who lost his brother courages him that they understand how losing a family is hard. They bond together and Tweedy starts the train engine. Back inside the ice cavern, Mattiingley helps Baxter to get out from the pile of snow. Baxter picks up Dr.Poh’s journal and puts inside his jacket. Mattingley claims that he has a very bad headache and does not remember anything about who he used to be. He believes he is part of the yeti family, and urges him to leave and do not return. Baxter runs towards the departing train and Wilhelm spots him. Wilhelm shoots him without an hesitation, but Dr. Poh’s journal in Baxter’s pocket saves his life. Behind, the yetis are chasing after the train. The father yeti crashes the train and the engine of the train is gone. A door of a storage car swings open and Baxter confronts with Wilhelm once again. Anastasia stops Wilhelm while accusing him as a coward and snake. As the yetis stop the train midst bridge, Baxter tells Anastasia to take Ping and leave to the restaurant car. While they fight, Tweedy and Dmitry enters the car. Tweedy cheers in disbelief while Wilhelm is pointing a gun at Baxter. Wilhelm dishonors Anastasia, and Dmitry furiously attacks him while Wilhelm shoots him in the chest. The bridge finally buckles under the strain, the wood splintering and exploding as the train cars crash down.The restaurant car slides back towards the chasm, but it digs in and remains safe on the snow. The storage car tips down on the buckled track, resting at a 45 degree angle. Cars 4 and 3 hang into the chasm. As the storage car tips, they are all grabbing tightly onto something so they won’t fall out. Dmitry looses his grip and falls into the chasm below. Inside the restaurant car, Anastasia and Ping hold on together as the car shifts. Ping cuts a rope and throws it down to the storage car so Baxter and Tweedy can climb up. Wilhelm lights up a dynamite to kill Baxter, but Anastasia throws it away, causing car 4 to separate and fall into the chasm. Tired of all this, Wilhelm draws his sword to kill Anastasia, but Ping saves her with some martial art skills. Ping and Anastasia slide down the rope, so now, all of them are dangling on a one rope below Wilhelm. Wilhelm tries to cut the rope and encounters Father Yeti from outside. Wilhelm takes out Anastasia’s necklace and mesmerizes it, but the Yeti whacks him and he falls off to the chasm. Baxter, Tweedy, Anastasia and Ping climb up to the storage car while the Yeti’s claws attack inside the train. The force breaks the link between the carriages and Father Yeti plummet into the chasm with the storage car. They all climb up to a safe place, but are surprised to see Wilhelm standing behind them, alive. Behind Wilhelm, furious Mother Yeti and Brother Yeti kill him by pouncing on him. Then Baby Yeti and Mattingley run up to join them, having a family time and looking forlornly down into the chasm where Father Yeti disappeared. Baxter, Anastasia, Ping and Tweedy are sitting around a fire looking into Dr. Poh’s drawings of the Yetis on his journal. They believe some things are best left undiscovered as they plan for a new life together. Meanwhile inside the ice cavern, Mother Yeti waddles out, raises her head, and howls. The sound echoes around the valley, and the howling is replied around the valleys, through the isolated and undiscovered world.

...nd goes down with her. This is the climax of the story; it is very suspenseful. Using phrases like “and very few mongooses, however wise and old they may be care to follow a cobra into its hole;” Kippling lines the hole with exaggerations and depictions to increase this already thick suspense. All the animals assume he is dead, similar to countless action movies where there is an explosion and the hero is thought dead, but like in those movies the hero comes out to the amazement and joy of all and there again is much celebrating. And so the book ends on the happy note of Darzee’s glorious battle song of Rikki’s tale.

One of the biggest questions that humans have is “what is reality”. Plato suggests that, “ we are born in illusions,” (Plato) and that the truth is initially blinding. “The Myth of the Cave,” is a narrative story about the idea of reality, it is explored though an allegory about a man finding out the truth about reality coming from a life in the dark. They can only learn about true mainly through reason and truth. The story is told as a metaphor for what happens in the natural world and how people can be stuck in the dark about reality. Plato tells the story through the voice of Socrates, his mentor.
A shrill cry echoed in the mist. I ducked, looking for a sign of movement. The heavy fog and cold storm provided nothing but a blanket, smothering all sight and creating a humid atmosphere. The freezing air continued to whip at my face, relentless and powerful. Our boat, stuck in the boggy water. Again a cry called. Somewhere out there was someone, or something.

The worst day of my life began innocently enough with my small group of friends preparing to explore a cave. Each month the four of us, I, Jill, John, and Ted, would choose two or three caves and spend our weekends engrossed in exploring them. Today’s cave was a special one; it afforded just a small window of opportunity for exploration because it flooded completely with each high tide. As we checked our packs and made sure all our spelunking and survival gear was in order, a rather jovial, but sizable, fellow by the name of Scott Porker happened by and asked if he could join our group. We agreed, as we were always happy to be in the company of a kindred spirit, and since the tide had just gone out we began our descent into the cave.
