"I don't need explanations
Do you hear me baby?
A lot of good
Were on the same page
You're never too soft for me

The simple things mean nothing
Everything ain't got to be tough
I cant stop us
Were supposed to be together
So go ahead and talk your little joy

I know she right for me
We close like family
She gives the right hand to me"

Meanwhile in R&B Caverns...

"Hey King Nox! Guess what day it is?" A troll said hauling a whole sack of blueprints.

"Today is Monday. And Monday is supposed to be the day that nothing happens. So today is the day that we mine in the caverns if I'm correct?"

"Bingo! So I have the plans right here. Usually we mine for gold. Well this isn't the case."

"Hold on. I'm gonna stop you right there. If we aren't going to look for gold, then it's something that has to do with us. And by us I mean everyone." Ox started to close his eyes. "So we have to expand the caverns like I said earlier."

"You are correct once again! So, how should we do it this time? Use hammers, get the big J and use it to-"

"Shhhhhh. You're getting off task my man. We need to bring out the big guns. Not big J, but the best that we've got."

"And by that you mean?"

"I mean the beats. Not beats as in drums, but beats as in Bass drums." He walked over and picked the nearest twig and chucked it at the sack.

"Bass drums- Wait. You don't mean-"

The sack was dropped to the floor.

"Yes, and I do mean who you think I'm going to say. And that right there, is the royalty before me."

"Are you sure?"

"I am sure. We need the best bass drummers here in these caverns."

Meanwhile...

"Hey Nox! Never thought that you would be showing up here! Speaking of showing up here, why are you here?" The figure standing in the doorway asked.

"Well today is supposed to be Gold mine Monday, but that's not the case. This time it's for-"

"For the civilians, I know what you mean. Happens to everyone the position you're in."

"So, you do know what I know?"

"Of course I do! If people didn't know me as Walter, then you wouldn't be King!" The figure stepped into the light showing his similar stature and looks as Ox.

"Well then, we should be on our way!" Ox started to head to the mining site, yet he was making no progress.

"Hold on! You're getting ahead of yourself. I can tell you have no plan."

"I do have a plan!"

"And what is your plan?"

"Expand the caverns! That's what we need to do!"

"With what?"

Ox paused for a moment. "Okay, okay you're right! I have no plan! The whole day is going by! I don't even know what to do!"

"How about you think and plan it out. It's not like the job isn't going to get done."

"Actually I think I have a plan. What if we build some kind of drum machinery. Like the ones we use to create special sounds. Maybe a drill and a hammer could work through the rocks and boulders."

"There's the king I knew I saw!"

"Enough standing around! We've got work to do!"

After the construction...

"We're finally done! Good job team." Ox stood proudly.

"I can sleep now. Thank the lord." The troll passed out.

"Hey King, what do we do with all the gold?"

"Gold? What gold?"

"This gold right here." They pointed at the huge pile of gold.

"DANG! Since we have THAT much. Maybe we can y'know; Make more jewelry?"

"So you want us to double the numbers of  gold profit? Because we can do that."

"Nah. Isn't fair to double the prices of gold profit. Keep it as it is." He gotten a quick drink.

"Okay then. Hey Big J! Start collecting the gold ore! We have to get it to the factory ASAP."

"I'm proud of you, Nox. Handled all of this like a pro." Walter patted him on the shoulder.

"Aw. Thank dad. Couldn't have done it without you."

"King Nox. May we get your permission to get rid of some. The mining truck can't carry all of it; While the factory that takes it in can't process all at once."

"Why not? We have plenty of it to go around."

"I wonder how this is going to play out. Not just for you but also for your jacket."

"My jacket? What's wrong with my jacket?"

"It's on fire."

"On fire? How is it on-  OH NO IT'S ON FIRE!" Ox took it off and smacked it against the floor, soon after he stomped on the small flames. "I think it's gone. Phew! For a second there I thought my jacket was going to burn into ashes."

End...

-Probably going to post more today, or tomorrow. Trying to space it out and make it longer. It's hard to write up to 1500 word each day. I was close at 863 words.
