My friend FoxyKhai0209 is excited to write a story about the Pyritor and his relationship with Junjie's twins, Jie and Jia. I also have been thinking about it and decide to write it, especially about the Pyritor's history. Though, it should be connected to My Life in Slugterra Eastern Caverns version.
Anyway, enjoy.
UPDATE: FoxyKhai0209 suggested the story to be split into chapters.
Chapter 1
We traveled to the southern region of The Eastern Caverns. We reached the Auroris Mines, a set of mining caverns in The Eastern Caverns. Trixie was holding her tablet and the twins, Jie and Jia were with her. Trixie used the Eastern Data Stream or the Eastern Net to search for information. It was similar to the Slugnet in The 99 Caverns. Meanwhile, Eli and Junjie were doing Slug Fu while the rest of us took a short break. Some of us had some food and drink.
"You know, Junjie, with all that's happened I never got to thank you for helping me become as good at Slug Fu as you," Eli thanked him as they were warming up.
Junjie smiled. "Then perhaps you should wait a little longer to thank me until you are actually as good as me," he said as he walked towards an empty can on the ground. He picked it up and kicked it. The can landed on top of a rock.
"Oh~ So that's how it's gonna be, huh?" Eli blurted out, amused. He took a slug tube with Stunts, his Speedstinger inside of it.
"How about it, Stunts? Want to show them how good we are?" he asked his Speedstinger. Stunts nodded and grinned.
Eli loaded him into his wrist blaster. "I challenge you to a trick competition," Eli told Junjie and they both smirked.
"Think Eli can do it?" Kord asked Pronto.
"None but a Slug Fu Master can beat a Slug Fu Master," Pronto replied.
"I'll take that bet," Kord said before Pronto took a huge chunk of bite from the chicken leg. Pronto laughed, accepting the bet. They wiggled their fingers and then did a fist bump.
"Please, Eli and Junjie are just showing off their Slug Fu style to Pronto and Kord," Ilys blurted out.
"I agree, Ilys," Elke responded.
"Come on, Junjie! Show this scrub how a master fools his slugs!" Pronto cheered for Junjie. I rolled my eyes.
Junjie inserted Stunts into his left wrist blaster. "Three banks off the cliff!" Junjie announced and fired Stunts. He reached velocity and Junjie used Slug Fu on him. Stunts bounced off the cliff three times in different angles. "Off the mushroom!" Stunts held onto a mushroom, using as a slingshot to plunge him towards the can on the rock. "Direct hit!" Stunts hit the rock and the can, causing the can to drop downwards since the rock had been demolished. Pronto cheered in victory.
Trixie, Jie and Jia were not paying attention. They were still on the tablet. Trixie pressed a link and opened a video clip. The video showed some miners were mining yellow glowing crystals when a roar was heard. A stone monster appeared in front of the miners and roared at them. The miners ran away in fear as the monster began to attack them.
Trixie's eyes widened in surprise upon finding this new knowledge. The twins were shocked to see the stone monster as they knew that monster before.
"Off the cliff," Eli announced and shot Stunts. He transformed again and bounced off the cliff once. "Off pointed rock." Stunts ricocheted from a pointed rock. "Back in proto." Stunts turned back into his protoform and entered Pronto's mouth. Pronto's stomach became bloated.
"Any time in the Molenoid. Wait for it," Eli said and winked at Junjie, who looked confused. A second or two later, Pronto let out a burp and Stunts flew out from his mouth. He successfully knocked over the can.
"And nothing but can!" Kord cheered in victory, so did Stunts.
"That is... weird," Ilys remarked at Eli's tactics.
"Not bad, huh?" Eli asked, feeling proud.
"Yeah, yeah. Let us show you our skills, boys," I blurted out. Khai and I stood up.
"We can do better than you two," Khai told them. She slung Noire, her Mega Morphed Speedstinger and she transformed into a pointed armoured silverfish with two small fins on both sides of her head. As Khai did her Slug Fu on her, she commanded her to bounce off the cliff, and then a nearby rock. Noire headed towards Kord and knocked his helmet off. That shocked Kord.
After that, I fired Athena, my Speedstinger. Using Slug Fu, I commanded her to bounce off the off, and then Pronto's stomach, which hurt the Molenoid a little. Ilys giggled at Pronto's reaction. Then, Athena held onto a mushroom, using it as a slingshot. It sent her flying upwards. Once she came down, she hit Pronto's head, knocking his helmet off. Pronto groaned in pain and was shocked to see his helmet was on the ground with Kord's.
Eli was stunned by my tactics while Junjie was impressed. Khai and the others were amazed. "Isn't that amazing, Trixie, Jie and Jia?" Khai called out to them.
"Sorry, weren't looking," Trixie apologized when Khai got her attention.
Trixie stood up and showed us what she had found through her tablet. "Now that the Eastern Data Stream has been restored, there's lots to check out. Like it says the cavern were in right now has a famous legend about a giant rock creature called the Pyritor," she told us as she showed us the map of the Auroris Mines, an article and a picture of the creature.
"Did you ever hear that story, Junjie?" Trixie asked him.
"Once, in my youth. But I was too busy training for real threats to bother with such myth," Junjie answered.
"But we do," Jie said. "Kun Zhen knew about the Pyritor and we believe in it." Jia said.
Suddenly, a roar was heard coming from the mine. Three miners ran out of the mine in fear, which shocked us. "You call that a myth?" Trixie questioned.
