 You took refuge at Delbert's house. Well, more like mansion. Being a scientist allowed him to have stuff like that. You were all resting in his observatory, while Delbert called the police about the Inn. A big fireplace was lit to keep you all warm. Books surrounded you, but you were too doleful to read. Your clothes and h/c hair were still damp from the rain. You sat by the fire trying to dry yourself along with your mother and Sarah.

 "I just spoke with the Constabulary. Those blaggard pirates have fled without a trace." Delbert knelt down in front of Sarah, as Jim placed a blanket over her shoulders. "I'm sorry, Sarah. I'm afraid the old Benbow Inn has burned to the ground."

 Jim looked like he was about to say something to his mother, but he decided to close his mouth and walk away instead. He then took another blanket, and draped it over your shoulders.

 "Thanks," you muttered, clutching tight onto your spyglass that was resting on your lap.

 You were still trying to figure out why Billy Bones told you to not let the pirates find it. Your mother gently placed a hand on your arm. She was still in shock as well. You gave her your blanket.

 Delbert cleared his throat. "Well, certainly a lot of trouble over that odd little sphere." Jim picked up the said object from its resting spot on a table. "Those markings baffle me. Unlike anything I've ever encountered. Even with my vast experience and superior intellect, it would take me years to unlock its-"

 Delbert was cut off when Jim did something with the sphere, and green light shot out of it. You gasped as the light swirled around, and laid out a grid all around the now dark room. Little shapes were scattered around the room that looked like different planets. It all looked so amazing.

 "It's a map," Delbert realized.

 Everybody looked at it in wonder.

 Delbert looked close at one of the planets. "Wait. Wait, wait, wait! This is us. The planet Montressor." He tapped on it, and suddenly the map moved forward, so it looked like you were moving through the space map. Delbert pointed to a small galaxy as it passed by. "That's the Magellanic Cloud." He pointed to another galaxy. "That's the Coral Galaxy."

 The said galaxy ran into you, and dispersed for a second before coming back together, the map still moving along. Sarah, Jim, your mom, and you were all in awe.

 Delbert kept defining the celestial bodies. "That's the Cygnus Cross, and that's the Kerian Abyss. Wait, what's this? What's this?"

 The map finally stopped moving, staying on one planet while everything else disappeared. The only unique feature about it were the two giant rings that circled around it. But that's all you needed to recognize it. You widened your eyes. It couldn't be; it was a legend.

 "It's-"

 "Treasure Planet," you and Jim breathed, cutting off Delbert.

 "No," Delbert denied dramatically. 

 "That's Treasure Planet," Jim said, shocked, but sounding very happy.

 You kept your eyes on the planet, not wanting to look away incase it was a dream.

 "Flint's trove? The moon of a thousand worlds?" Delbert questioned, getting more excited each second. "You know what this means?"

 "It means that it's not just a legend," you said, the realization slowly coming upon you.
