Lava World

Chapter 4

Brad blinked slowly. He saw the light. Brad sat up, but the smell of dog poop made him land crash down again. Suddenly, a big splash of water landed splat on him, " Hey, Cap, wake up!" Ham shook Brad. Brad noticed Big Joe had a peg over his nose. Everyone did. Brad rubbed his eyes, and then a peg bit onto his neck. "OW!" Then it bit his cheek, "OI!" Then his eyebrow, "EEK!" And finally, his nose, "GAHH!" At least the smell was stopped. Then the group covered their ears and closed their eyes. They thought Brad was about to yell at them. Instead Brad blinked. He then took their hands out of their ears. Emily was surprised. Why?. Brad calmly told the whole story, without any distractions. 

In the end, the group were hugging and crying, laughing and cheering. It was like nothing bad could go on. Suddenly, Cat came into the room, and sat on the floor by Ham. It purred. Brad screamed and threw two sticks at the cat. The cat then opened its mouth and munched on the sticks, and then let out a meow and fire erupted from its head. When it stopped, Ham smiled and said, "Oh, right. Thanks for feeding Catalina." Brad was cowering in fear on a glass chandelier. "W-w-what is that!?" Stammered Brad, "Oh, it's just a catalpa, a servant of the fire giant. I forget to feed it this afternoon, so thanks for doing that!" Ham chuckled. Brad relaxed but came down slowly. "Okay. You have a lot to tell me..."

Back in the forest, a hooded person entered Brads cave. The old leaves and the half eaten duck were still there. The figure grimaced, and held up a walkie talkie, "This is Agent Phoenix, reporting to head quarters, it seems like cave 1728 was occupied by a stranger. Send stealth group the message" . Suddenly, three people zoomed out of no where, and, holding spears, surrounded the figure. The figure lowered her walkie talkie, and got out her flaming red sword. The group of three backed away, the feathers on their hats swaying. The group looked like natives, because they were. The toughest looking one, with a scar running down his cheek, shouted, "You give hart, us leave you alone," Spat the native. The hooded figure just stood there than charged towards the group, but instead of attacking, she through a shiny object on the ground, and an electric blue portal appeared before the natives eyes. The figure jumped into the portal, and before the natives could move a muscle, the player disappeared. 

The portal opened up in a dimly lit room. A silhouette stared out the window, arms behind his back. He snorted, then cleared his throat. A deep booming voice echoed from his mouth, "You have done well, Agent phoenix. I will send you the message when all operations are done." Phoenix knelt down, and stood back up, and went out of the door, shutting the door behind her.
