Boka and Kama ran up the cliff path. Jack andAnnie grabbed their shoes and Jack's pack.



At the top of the cliff, everyone looked back. Jackcouldn't believe his eyes!



A wave was rising up like a dark mountain ofwater. It came surging toward the shore, growingeven taller.



"Wow," whispered Annie.



"Get back!" shouted Boka.

"Yeah," said Jack. "We just made it.""Boka! Kama!" voices yelled.
