He
had
seen
fire
,
but
only
when
Ara
,
the
lightning
,
had
destroyed
some
great
tree
.
That
any
creature
of
the
jungle
could
produce
the
red-and-yellow
fangs
which
devoured
wood
and
left
nothing
but
fine
dust
surprised
Tarzan
greatly
,
and
why
the
black
warrior
had
ruined
his
delicious
repast
by
plunging
it
into
the
blighting
heat
was
quite
beyond
him
.
Possibly
Ara
was
a
friend
with
whom
the
Archer
was
sharing
his
food
.
But
,
be
that
as
it
may
,
Tarzan
would
not
ruin
good
meat
in
any
such
foolish
manner
,
so
he
gobbled
down
a
great
quantity
of
the
raw
flesh
,
burying
the
balance
of
the
carcass
beside
the
trail
where
he
could
find
it
upon
his
return
.
And
then
Lord
Greystoke
wiped
his
greasy
fingers
upon
his
naked
thighs
and
took
up
the
trail
of
Kulonga
,
the
son
of
Mbonga
,
the
king
;
while
in
far-off
London
another
Lord
Greystoke
,
the
younger
brother
of
the
real
Lord
Greystoke
's
father
,
sent
back
his
chops
to
the
club
's
CHEF
because
they
were
underdone
,
and
when
he
had
finished
his
repast
he
dipped
his
finger-ends
into
a
silver
bowl
of
scented
water
and
dried
them
upon
a
piece
of
snowy
damask
.
All
day
Tarzan
followed
Kulonga
,
hovering
above
him
in
the
trees
like
some
malign
spirit
.
Twice
more
he
saw
him
hurl
his
arrows
of
destruction
--
once
at
Dango
,
the
hyena
,
and
again
at
Manu
,
the
monkey
.
In
each
instance
the
animal
died
almost
instantly
,
for
Kulonga
's
poison
was
very
fresh
and
very
deadly
.
Tarzan
thought
much
on
this
wondrous
method
of
slaying
as
he
swung
slowly
along
at
a
safe
distance
behind
his
quarry
.
He
knew
that
alone
the
tiny
prick
of
the
arrow
could
not
so
quickly
dispatch
these
wild
things
of
the
jungle
,
who
were
often
torn
and
scratched
and
gored
in
a
frightful
manner
as
they
fought
with
their
jungle
neighbors
,
yet
as
often
recovered
as
not
.
No
,
there
was
something
mysterious
connected
with
these
tiny
slivers
of
wood
which
could
bring
death
by
a
mere
scratch
.
He
must
look
into
the
matter
.
That
night
Kulonga
slept
in
the
crotch
of
a
mighty
tree
and
far
above
him
crouched
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
.
When
Kulonga
awoke
he
found
that
his
bow
and
arrows
had
disappeared
.
The
black
warrior
was
furious
and
frightened
,
but
more
frightened
than
furious
.
He
searched
the
ground
below
the
tree
,
and
he
searched
the
tree
above
the
ground
;
but
there
was
no
sign
of
either
bow
or
arrows
or
of
the
nocturnal
marauder
.
Kulonga
was
panic-stricken
.
His
spear
he
had
hurled
at
Kala
and
had
not
recovered
;
and
,
now
that
his
bow
and
arrows
were
gone
,
he
was
defenseless
except
for
a
single
knife
.
His
only
hope
lay
in
reaching
the
village
of
Mbonga
as
quickly
as
his
legs
would
carry
him
.
