Episode 6

My Many Amazing Adventures 

       We Figured it would be safest to go in parties of two. I went with Percy, Sandy went with Luke, Tim went with Megan, Drew went with Logan, Rusty went with Hugo, and Ethan and Jason brought up the back. We had no problems until Drew and Logan crossed. They were nearly half way to the middle when the bridge snapped. Drew held on to the rope railings, but Logan wasn't so fortunate. He fell. Drew must have felt really bad because she let go. As she fell past Logan she grabbed him. They fell faster and faster. Then Drew yelled something at Logan. He took his shirt off along with his belt and handed them to Drew. In a moment she fastened wings. She slipped them on her arms and Logan climbed on her back. Drew must have been a bird in her previous life because she knew exactly how to catch the wind in her wings. She guided them over to a rock sticking out of the side of the wall. There they landed. They still looked a bit shaken, but other than a few burns they were fine. Just as nothing seemed to be worse, a pterodactyl swooped down and picked them both up in it's claw. "Drop me, you scaly chicken vulture!" We heard Drew yell. "I can already fly perfectly fine on my own." Well that was a relief. As long as

Drew still has her sense of humor everything is fine. The Dino swooped down and dropped them in front of the others who ad already crossed the bridge safely. Then it flew back over everyone scurried away to hide except for Hugo. The pterodactyl tilted his to one side and squawked. Hugo bowed and held one arm out. Then he boarded. 

       The others joined him. Once everyone landed safely on the other side Hugo thanked the dinosaur and it flew off. "You never told me you were bilingual." Tim said. "Actually, I'm trilingual, I speak stegasorian." He replied. "Do you think you can teach me?" Rusty asked.

                          ...

       We made camp. One tent for the girls, one tent for the boys, and one tent for the injured. Percy had some pretty cool healing tricks up his sleeve. So we left it to him. In the morning we found Drew back in the girls, but Percy and Logan were still in the injured tent. No one spoke during breakfast. Drew told us that Logan was still unconscious when she left and he looked pretty bad. Later Percy came out for a snack and was bombarded with questions. All he said was that Logan would be fine, he was just resting. Luke demanded to see him. When Luke came out, it was obvious something was wrong. We spent the rest of the day doing our own things. I was making more weapons and repairing the old ones with Tim and Rusty. Ethan, Hugo, and Sandy were hunting and collecting berries. Drew, Megan, and Jason were repairing the clothes and making armor. Luke was in the tent with Logan and Percy. We spent the rest of the day doing our jobs while Ethan, Sandy and Hugo made dinner. We went to sleep. That night I barely slept, but that was a good thing 'cause I was the first one to hear  the T-Rex. We formed battle positions and we had to convince Luke to protect the injured tent. Hugo talked some sense into the T-Rex through stegasorian. Turns out we didn't have fight, but no one went back to sleep. The next morning Logan walked out of the injured tent. He hung his head low. When he did raise it (A few hours later) everyone gasped. He had two large scars. One ran from on top of his ear through his upper lip. The other one ran from his forehead down his cheekbone and halfway down his jaw. That wasn't it though. The second scar ran through his eye which was now covered with a patch.

       Nobody talked much for the rest of the day. People did congratulate Percy. That's how it went on for four more days. Hike, camp, eat, sleep, eat, hike...     No one resisted, no one talked it was the most boring time of my life.

       Minutes turned into hours and hour turned into complaints. The only ones who didn't complain were Megan and Ethan, and I was very grateful for that. Even I went a bit bonkers, I started checking the map wondering if I had taken any wrong turns. Percy, Ethan and Drew did seem a bit skiddish though. "What's wrong?" I asked. "We smell fresh blood" Percy answered. "That mustn't be a good odor" I replied. "Yeah, and it rarely comes with good news." Said Drew breathing heavily. "Let's make camp, it's getting too dark for me to see." Ethan said. Percy had a makeshift collapsible tent in his pack. "Two people keep guard." Megan suggested. Drew and I volunteered. 

       Neither of us were very talkative, so the conversation only started after she saved my skin from a  Hypsilophodon. "Thanks! So, uh, how long have you been seeking this treasure?" I asked "You won't believe me if I told you." she said. "I've traveled back in time by refrigerator, I've meet my first dinosaur, I have an immortal friend, and I'm chasing after the worlds top treasure. I'm pretty sure I could handle it." I explained. She still hesitated. "Come on, try me." I persuaded. "Seven thousand eighty six years. We're immortal." she said. "Don't go try anything crazy or you'll end up like us, stuck on the island till we get the treasure." She sighed. The awkward silence was broken by some rustling in the bushes, then some whispering from the bushes. Drew notched her arrow and stepped closer. "You wake the rest, I'll investigate." she whispered. I went and got Ethan, Jason, Percy, and Megan. 

       They all came out arms at the ready. Then an arrow whisked past my ear and Ethan commanded battle positions. Ethan in the front, Percy and Drew to the side and back of him, me directly behind Ethan, Jason directly behind me, and Megan took the back. A whisper and the next thing we knew somethings charged us. Those somethings were humans. "Drop your weapons if you don't want to become our midnight snack." one of them growled. "Get an attitude check before that." Ethan growled back as he easily knocked the first one's sword out of his hand. The second one shot Ethan in the ankle. "And I highly suggest you shoot with something other than toothpicks." Ethan said as he plucked the arrow out of his ankle. "Excuse us, I'm Luke and this is Logan." They waved. "You have good distracting methods, but they don't work on us." Percy said. "We truly mean no harm, we're just looking for the world's top treasure." Logan said "So are we." I said. "Have you had any luck?" "None whatsoever." Luke replied "Would you care to join us?" "I looked at Ethan. "This is your call." I said. "welcome, I'm Ethan." Ethan introduced the rest of us. 

       That night I slept while Ethan and Logan kept watch. That morning Jason and I got some weapons. Jason was a natural spear man and I naturally drifted over to the swords which seemed to be my specialty. After some training and some breakfast we started our journey. We only stopped once to fight a pack of velocirapters. Later that day we met our daily group of people after our treasure. Sandy a dirty blond that fought with a dagger, rusty a redheaded archer and Timothy(Tim) a spear man who had a whole collection of electric spears. It was now eleven of us and one treasure. I thought it was fair to let the stranded 7,086 year olds keep it until we celebrated Tim's second million birthday. Well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it I thought.

       The scariest part of the adventure in my opinion was when we crossed the volcano. "And halt!" Rusty commanded. "Man I hate this part of the jungle." he muttered. Just then a fire ball shot out of the volcano and landed a few yards away from us. "Yeah I can see why." Sandy remarked. We kept hiking until we got to a bridge that stretched from one side of the volcano's mouth to the other. "How about you go first, leader," Luke said. "How about you go first Luke," Ethan said definitely frustrated. "Heads you go first tails I go last." Luke said grinning as he fished a coin out of his pocket. "I'll go first if you like, just keep your voices down, you never know what's lurking around here." Said a boy who walked out of a bush. "Sure, when can I sign up for whisper lessons for next fall?" Jason whispered sarcastically. "Not funny." the boy said. "I'm Hugo." I counted twelve on my fingers. "Huge-o?" Jason said. "No, it's Hugo." Hugo said "Oh, phew at first I thought you were going to say Tiny-o." Jason giggled. Hugo turned his back on Jason who was rolling around on the ground trying not to laugh. Hugo, Ethan, Tim, Luke, and I consulted how we would cross as the rest got Jason recovered.       

Episode 4

My Many Amazing Adventures

       Yesterday was Friday so today is Saturday. I've got two hole days to discover this new treasure thingy and I'm gonna do it. First of all, on the back of the map were instructions on where to find a teleporter. This magnificent teleporter was my refrigerator, I just had to pull some plugs, flip some switches and tada, I had my very own teleporter plus an extra food supply. The one thing I didn't know was how to use it so I use my common senses to solve that one. Just step into the refrigerator, close the door, say where you want to go, and then you have to turn the lights off. The map called for Pangaea, and if I was correct that was the one super continent the the dinos lived on. "Pangaea!" I shouted. "Not so loud Mr. Visible, We're in tight quarters here." "Jason! I didn't know you were coming with me." "I'm always with you, if you know what I mean." He replied. "Hey dude, stop trying to freak me out here. I'm stuck in an oxygen restricted refrigerator and I'm heading towards a bunch o' dinosaurs. "Sure." he said "But last night I went to age of knights and I almost got killed." he added. "Then you seem pretty well prepared for what we're heading into." I commented. "So am I." another voice said."Man, I really got to tell my parents about the rat problem in here." I thought aloud "I'm not a rat, I'm a human!" the voice said. "My bad, but I would like some proof." I said. Then the voice's owner showed herself. "the name's Megan, I heard you're Jason, and nice to meet you Mr. Visible." She said. I didn't protest it would me much easier to stick with Mr. Visible for now.

       It only took a split second to get to Pangaea. We decided to allow Megan to come with us after she showed us some pretty cool sword tricks, after all, we're walking strait into Dino infested areas. We did warn her so don't blame it on Jason and I if only two of the three come back with a beating heart. We landed in a place full of vegetation. "Let's just hope this is the herbivores green house." Jason said. "Yeah" Megan and I agreed. But today didn't seem like our lucky day. We heard a roar and next thing we knew Megan was leading us to a hiding spot. 

       It didn't seem like we were the only ones with that idea. Right next to me were three archers with their arrows notched. The relieving part was that their bow and arrows were pointed away from us, and the not so relieving part was that they weren't wearing my idea of clothes. They blended in perfectly to their surroundings with their leaf outfits. The Dino roared again and the three musketeers sent a volley of arrows toward the sound. "Hey archer dudes do you want to join us on an expedition to find the worlds top treasure?" I asked. One of them grunted and then signaled the others to notch their arrows. "Well it's not like you've got anything better to do around here." I pointed out. Then the second one grunted and pulled a map exactly identical to mine out of his quiver. Then I showed his mine. After that I introduced us "This is Jason, that's Megan and I'm....Mr. Visible." I said. Jason started jumping up and down and clapping. The three musketeers stared at him funny. "Ya, he invented my name, but you can call me whatever you want." I said. "Lion" the first one said. The other two nodded their head vigorously. "So, uh, Jason here's immortal you can lick his tongue and become immortal too but if I were you I wouldn't risk it, I've heard he carries a lot germs. Megan's our swords master and, um, I guess I'm the guide." Before I could say anything else, the archers attacked Jason, tongues at the ready. They tackled him to the ground and licked his whole face. Jason gave me the "Was that necessary look?" Right when they were starting on his arms I pulled them off. "You owe me big time buddy!" Jason said waving his finger at me. Meanwhile the archers were looking at themselves as if waiting for the immortal tingly feeling to start. "Alright chief, let's get moving." I said to the first archer. He grunted absentmindedly and we walked off him still intensely examining his arms. I was in the lead and Megan brought up the rear end.

       As we walked the first archer introduced himself as Ethan, The second was Drew, and the third was Percy. They all had god hearing and good vision. we walked in this order: Ethan and me in the front, followed by Drew, followed by Jason, followed by Percy, and Megan in the back. I though it was pretty smart. No dinosaur got close to the group thanks to Ethan's accuracy, and the only injury was when Drew stumped her toe on a rock.        

Episode 3

My Many Amazing Adventures

      The last treasure was hidden in a tree so well hidden that it took us nearly an hour to find it. First we had to climb the tree all the way to the top and when we got there we found a chute going all the way back down to the ground, but it was on the inside of the tree. Down at the bottom was something definitely a treasure for it was shinny but I couldn't make out what it was. "Ladies first." I said patting him encouragingly on the back. "Sure, I'm perfectly fine with you going first. Whenever you're ready." He replied. I growled at him then I jumped. It was much faster getting down than getting up the only hard part was the landing, and also the part where Jason fell on me. But in the end we both lived, which is perfectly fine with me. It was easy getting the treasure-a flashlight-the hard part was getting out. The sides were as smooth as silk (kind of hard for bark to be smooth). Fortunately Jason brought rope. So after we got out we sat in the shade and tried to put three rags, three pieces of paper, and a flashlight together to make the worlds top treasure. However, nothing we tried worked.
       "How about we search in the book." Jason suggested. We spent thirty minutes reading the entire book-872 pages long. The answer to our question was on the eight hundred seventy-second page, it was in the author's note. Apparently, we had fit to the first rag and first paper together, and the second rag and the second paper together, and the third paper and the third rag together then shine the flashlight on all of them. This way the codes merge to form English. The first set of codes gave us the map to the worlds top treasure. The second set of codes gave us the recipe for a potion to make one immortal and the third set of codes gave us a spell that whenever you say it you get three wishes and it never runs out. Amazing hu? "Alright pal, nice working with you and thanks for the help. I'll just be leaving. Oh, and, uh I'll be taking these." Jason said pointing to our treasures. "Oh, uh, no no no no no. I think we should split them. I take one, you take one, and we leave one for one lucky person who stumbles across it. That's the only fair solution in my opinion." "Or, I could take it all." He said "Or I could take it all, right? That wouldn't be fair to you, would it?" I asked. "Fine we'll do it your way, but I want the three wishes, OK? "Sure, I'll take the next treasure map." I said. Then we parted ways. Me back to the cafeteria, him, who knows where. "see ya later Mr. Visible!" Jason shouted. "see ya later Jason!" I called back.
       Some lucky person is gonna become immortal today. I thought to myself. When I reached the cafeteria it was dismissal time in one minute. "Phew, I just barely made it back."          

Episode 2

My Many Amazing Adventures

       After realizing what I was truly after, I was slightly discouraged. However I went on. The next treasure was hidden in the girls locker room next to the gym. I looked all over the place, but it was nowhere in sight. I finally found it-a rolled up sheet of paper with the same confusing code written all over it. I found it rolled up inside an old toilet paper roll in the trash. Two down, five to go. The next two were a breeze. I found another rag under the copy machine in the teachers lounge, and another code paper inside the leg of a math teachers desk. I had three left. I followed the map and found myself in the back of the cafeteria kitchen and I was lucky that no one saw me 'cause I had heard some pretty nasty stories about people who got caught sneaking food. I was really gonna need to watch my step in this place. It was hard knowing where to start in such a big place, so I decided to start on the wooden crates that I was sitting on. After a while of scavenging I finally found another code rag. Just then I heard foot steps. It was either hide or run. I decided to hide since there were so many hiding spots around here. I found a snug crack in the wall where I think they disposed of all the rotten food ( in my opinion all of the food should be in here). The footsteps faded away and I climbed out of the disposal pit.

       I had two more treasures to find and I would be the most powerful person in the world. Plus for all I knew the treasures were just replicas of each other. Then the map led me to a place I had never been and a place I had no intentions of coming back to. I was standing in the principals office. " May I assist you in any way?" asked the secretary from behind the desk. "Uh, I would please like to speak to the principal." "Yes, let me escort you." she replied "Oh, there's no need for that, I know where it is and I think I can manage to get there on my own, but thank you for the offer." Your very welcome." she said. Truthfully I had no idea where the principal's office was but that didn't matter because I had no intentions of seeing him today or really any other day actually. I was looking around for any signs of a piece of paper with a secret code written all over it when a voice said "Psst!" "Over here." I looked around but there was nothing in my sight that I knew could talk. "Are you here for the same reason as me?" it said again "I have no idea what you are talking about." I said maybe a bit too loud because the secretary said "Yes? How may I help you?" "Oh no, I didn't say anything." I answered "Look Mr. Invisible I need you to be quiet real bad 'cause this is important." I whispered. No response. I'm walking around with a book that seems a few hundred years old for this era and looking for the worlds top seven treasures in my very own school. Now I'm hearing voices what could get anymore crazy? "Hey Mr. Visible, it's gonna rain cows so you better take cover." said the mystery voice. It seemed like this invisible dude and I were on the same page so it didn't seem like it could be too bad taking him along.   

       Mr. Invisible turned out to be Jason and he made a photo copy of the book that I had. Together we looked through all the stacks of paper, drawers, cabinets, and folders we could get our hands on. We never found anything. We took a break just to talk and Jason informed me that he had a copy of all the locations of the treasures in each designated place. "Well why didn't you tell me in the first place, we could have saved so much time." I pointed out. "You didn't tell me I should tell you in the first place." was his answer. Anyway, we found the code paper rolled up inside the principals mechanical pencil.
