Protectors of Pandora

Chapter 44 ~the journey to the mines~

The group headed east, as that was the direction the chalicotherium said that the person who brought the element shipments came from. It was a hard journey, the weather was good but it was still a frozen tundra. At one point they had to cross a frozen lake, and Lee fell in, luckily, he’s a kairuku so he was fine. They eventually reached a forest, inside they met a thylacoleo he was quite rude, but told them about a cave where purlovias used to come in and out, sometimes with a very shiny metal in paw. So they headed in the direction that the thyla grumpily gestured towards.

“So who’s going first.” Ping asked when they reached the tunnel entrance. “Not me, I’m too old to die in a hole.” Wan said. “HAH cowards! I shall do it!” Quan said, he ran into the cave yelling his battle cry, “AHHHHHHHHHGGGGHGGHGHGH!” He yelled. “Well, he sounds fine. Let’s go.” Richard said. The group walked into the tunnel, Quan was a little ways in the cave sobbing. “What’s wrong Quan?” George asked. “I- I was not met with instant glorious battle…” he said sadly.

They walked down the winding tunnel for a wile until they heard a noise. “What was that?” Ron asked. “I don’t know.. everyone stay vigilant.” Charles said. “I am vigilance!!” Quan boasted.

He was not, the purlovia jumped him first followed by its friends. They bursted out of the ground and leapt at the group, there was five purlovias in total, the wolves and three perlovias engaged in a dog fight like combat wile the other two attacked the birds, Quan had a small battle hammer, and we swung in around insanely, trickster threw some of his new smoke bombs he made on the way, this wasn’t very helpful because purlovia use their hearing and smell more than sight anyway so the smoke was actually a hindrance. The pengujas and Ron fought the purlovias as hard as they could but they were strong creatures, and when the two had finished the birds they helped their comrades with the wolves, the group had been defeated.

Dun dun DUNNNN!
