Chapter 1- Treasure of the Knights Templar Part II: Oak Island
Stitch felt seasick, the sounds of throwing up bothered Lilo. Looking up to the bridge of the yacht, she found Kitsune manning the wheel of the ship, the blue waters of the Pacific calmly splash against the sky blue yacht. Angel was in the living room, watching Mexican soap operas trying to figure out the whole plot of the thing.
It's been days since they left Kokaua, and Kitsune was glad to find a small crew to help him in this journey. Crossing the Panama Canal and then straight to Caribbean waters, they made a short stop in Jamaica to resupply and adjust their course, and another week of dreadful navigation. "Ah don't worry guys." Kitsune assured the tired crew. "We'll eventually reach our destination in another 4 days."
Lilo and Angel groaned. "4 Days?"
"Yep," Kitsune said with a cheery smile on his face. "In four days we'll reach our destination: Oak Island and the secrets that reside within the island." He licked his lips in excitement.
Lilo eyed Kitsune, knowing the shrewd but honest Hunter. "We're still getting our wages, right?"
"What wages?" Kitsune asked innocently.
"We've helped you three times looking for treasure around the world for the wage of 8.00 an hour!" Angel exclaimed in Tantalog. She was right, 3 times the help and the wages were hard to collect or Kitsune sometimes "forgot" to pay them their deserved salary. She gave a long growl while Lilo has her arms crossed.
"Fine, I'll pay you when we get back home, right now we need to concentrate our entire trip to Oak Island, get the treasure and we'll head back home in a cinch. Agree?"
That evening
"Are we there yet?" Stitch asked bored.
"Naga," Kitsune said as he yawned. "Now that we're on the coast of Bermuda, we'll dock there for a few hours to relax and have some fun before we continue our long trip to Canada."
"Canada!?" Lilo asked. "Why are we going there?"
"Oak Island is in Canada Lilo," Kitsune explained. "In the coast of Nova Scotia or New Scotland if you translate Latin. You see, Oak Island is said to have the wealth of the Knights Templar, or so the legend goes. I read a lot of stories about them, the Templars large wealth, a treasure of Kings and Nobility. The legend goes that the Templars set sail for Canada and hid the treasure on Oak Island, creating a complex system of tunnels and traps to kill wealth seekers and other enemies that might be after their stored riches."
"And you are after the treasure?" Stitch asked in Tantalog.
"Oh yes," Kitsune said with a grin on his face. The trio eyed the red experiment closely. "The Treasure of the Knights Templar is the greatest lure and the big reward one can harvest. All the fortunes of the Kings of Europe, all the wealth of the Old World, and what I seek the most, lost knowledge of the civilizations thought to be gone. Imagine owning the recipe for a Philosopher's Stone, or the dark secrets of Alchemy, the possibility is endless."
"The endless possibility to change the Earth as we know it," Kitsune sipped his tea. "Perhaps with the lost knowledge, we can finally bring an end to serious diseases such as AIDS or perhaps discover lost scientific secrets, locations of the Holy Relics such as the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail…the big two Treasure Hunters seek in this world, including myself."
Lilo was awestruck by these things spoken. Angel was asleep while Stitch was thinking of all the things he could do with this lost knowledge…
Bermuda
It was nighttime in Bermuda, the waters were dangerous to navigate. Luckily, the Royal Bermuda Coast Guard found the yacht and safely guided them to Hamilton Harbor. Many yachts were docked here; Lilo saw a yacht bearing the Flag of Scotland, followed by a sky blue flag with a flaming heart. "That yacht, the Sea Puma belongs to a member of Clan Kitsune, Panther."
"You mean the tiger furred experiment that wears a dress?" Lilo joked.
"It's not a dress ye dumb lassie, it's a kilt!" A Scottish voice said from behind. Lilo turned and smiled to find a tiger furred experiment that she mentioned. The experiment wore a nice blue jumpsuit top, a leopard-pattern kilt, followed by a jaguar-patterned tam o'shanter. "Ah Chief Kitsune, what brings ye to the Royal Territory of Bermuda? A vacation for the two lovers and the Polynesian Girl? I thought the big lassie forbade them to go on international travels as I see."
"Nani said we needed the job." Lilo said.
"And we're going to Oak Island," Stitch said in Tantalog.
"Oak Island?" Panther's eyes widened. "Yer not going for the old treasure left by the Templars, are ye?"
"We are," Kitsune replied.
"Oak Island is nothing but filled with death traps and floodways, I've been there and I nearly died in the inner sanctum. It's a large and complex way if ye want the treasure." Panther eyed them. "You'll surely die there, and trust me; it's a slow and painful death."
Angel gulped in fear. Death was not in her schedule.
"Panther, I've survived traps around the world, the Mayan Temples, the Persian tombs, the Egyptian Pyramids. No trap can stop me that is if you have the correct experience and the correct maps." He showed his white teeth to his comrade. "And with my crew here, we're an unstoppable force."
Panther only have a cackle. "Aye, tell Vixy about that, speaking about that, here comes her new yacht."
A new red and black yacht came and dropped anchor. A small bridge came out, allowing Vixy to set her feet on the wooden docks.
Stitch and Angel eyed the red female, everyone in Kokaua knew her by her evil deeds. The sinful red and black fur made them growl. No one has forgotten the Nanobot Incident a few months back, taxpayers had to pay massive amounts of money to repair the damages.
"Expat" Lebanese Vixy the Space Rogue looked at the group and gave them a cold look.
"Why do you hang around the Earth so much?" Kitsune said. "The last thing we need is an expat Lebanese with a horrible case of greed fever."
"Ah shut your mouth Kitsune!" Vixy said, biting her upper lip. "Well, look what Kitsune brought; it's the loser Angel and his loser boyfriend Stitch… Oh? And Lilo too? Oh how nice the whole gang is here on Bermuda,"
"HEY!" Stitch and Angel said together.
"I have my eyes on you Space Rogue," Kitsune said menacingly. "The next time we meet will be your last."
Vixy only cackled as she heard those words and left.
Stitch and Angel only looked at her and blew a raspberry at her. Lilo only gave her a face. "Come on guys," Kitsune said. "Let's resupply and head to Oak Island."
In 3 hours, Kitsune's yacht left Bermuda.
4 days later, the ship reached Oak Island.
The yacht docked near a cave and the search began.
"OK guys!" Kitsune took out the golden map. "Stay close to me, and watch out for traps in the corridors."
"Got it." Lilo smiled.
Angel and Stitch nodded.
The trio followed Kitsune. Stopping, Kitsune and the rest saw a red cross on the wall. "The emblem of the Knights Templar, we're near. But according to this map, there's a trap, a room ahead that will be flooded once we enter."
"So what do we do?" Angel asked.
"Simple," Kitsune said. "According to the map, we must first rotate the cross counterclockwise and see what happens. Stitch, will you do me the honors?"
Stitch spits on his two paws and begins to rotate the cross in the opposite direction.
Schrink!
The floor began to rumble, dust fell from the roof. The wall with the emblem began to move slowly to the left. "A secret door." Lilo gasped.
"What will we find?" Stitch asked in Tantalog. "Wasp Mummies or Nazi Gold?"
Angel and Kitsune look at Stitch with unimpressed eyes. "Nazi gold? You're wrong!" Kitsune exclaimed. "That's under Lake Toplitz in Austria or so the story goes. Come on, we have history to rewrite."
A sireny voice giggled in the darkness.
"I can't see a thing!" Lilo exclaimed.
"Grab Angel or Stitch's paw." Kitsune suggested, the cold glow of his blue eyes which meant his night vision was active creeped Lilo a bit. "No wait…aha! Here they are."
Lilo began to see thinks in a cool green color. "Nice, night vision goggles."
They kept walking until…
"Uh guys?" Angel said. "Why do the sudden I feel light…?"
"Ih, meega too." Stitch replied. "Naga floor."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" The four exclaimed.
Lilo, Stitch, and Angel landed on top of Kitsune. "Owwwwww…."
"Thanks for the soft landing." Lilo said nervously. "So what's next?"
Kitsune looked at the map. "Oh crud! The good news is that we're near the chamber with the treasure."
"And the bad news?" Lilo asked.
"The bad news is that we landed in a trap chamber placed here on purpose." Kitsune spoke. "The only way to access the treasure is too run to the door way ahead of us. We have 10 minutes to get there before we end up stuck. SO RUN!"
Angel began, pressing the floor tile, the challenge began.
Running for their lives, several sharp blades started to fall from the roof. Lilo screamed but Kitsune pushes her out of the way, while Angel and Stitch panic as the blades were catching up to them. The next section was to calculate when to cross the shooting arrows. "NOW!" Kitsune said as he grabbed Lilo's hand and dragged her to safety. Angel and Stitch whimpered. "We only have 4 more minutes, hurry up or we'll be history."
Eventually, the two experiments crossed.
"Oh God…" Kitsune saw a beam of ruby light shoot across and the light began to burn the ground. "A primitive laser defense… now this is getting ugly." The laser was getting close. "RUN!!"
The four began to run like they never ran before. The red beam of light was drawing closer to them. Angel could feel the heat of them beam as it got near her. Jumping to the entrance of the door, Kitsune pushed the Templar Cross on the wall, making the traps stop, the door began to open…
Success.
"We did it guys!" Kitsune cheered as he shot the torches, revealing the wealth of the Templars. The massive wealth began to shine, gold, silver, and jewels flickered. "Here we are, the legendary Money Pit."
Stitch did a somersault in celebration.
Angel smiled but something sneaked upon her and fired. The pink experiment screamed in agony as she fell to the ground. Kitsune turned to find Vixy with her smoking rifle in her paws. "Thank you for guiding me to the Treasure of the Templars. Now if you excuse me, I have a wealth to collect, and a world to control economically."
Kitsune growled. "You have no right to claim this as your own."
Vixy responded with a cackle. Kitsune took out his pistols and took aim at the red female. "You never give up, do you Kitsune?"
"Vixy, I will spare your life if you leave, if you don't I will blast you to Kingdom Come." Kitsune threatened.
"You don't scare me." Vixy shot Lilo.
Kitsune gasped as he saw Lilo drop to the ground, blood gushing out of her shoulder. He growled as he fired, blue oval shots impacted Vixy, pushing her back. "You'll pay for what you did. Hurting Lilo was just cruel. You scum, you're going down!"
Vixy cackled as she fired her rifle like mad. Red oval shots impacted the walls, the gold, sending sparks all over the place. Stitch was tending to Lilo, despite the heavy crossfire. Vixy loaded another power pack to her rifle and fired it like mad. Kitsune grunted as he took a shot.
Firing back at Vixy, she backed off, panting for air. This gave Kitsune an idea. Grabbing a treasure chest, she threw it at Vixy. The female experiment stared to swear in Arabic as she tried to get out of the locked chest. Grinning, a red stream melted the metal part, closing the treasure chest for good. Kicking it far away from his sight.
Kitsune checked on Lilo. "She'll live, the shot wasn't charged completely."
"Lilo OK?" Stitch asked worried.
"Yes." Kitsune said. "I think Angel will be OK too…"
A few months later
"Lilo," Nani called. "There's something in the mail for you."
"There's something for me?" Lilo took the letter and opened it.
Hey Lilo,
I am writing to you from Honduras. Yep, I am in one of my treasure-seeking adventures around the world, nothing like a treasure hunt to keep ya alive, eh? How's Angel and Stitch? I hope they're fine, I kinda miss ya as my crew, you became a small part of my Clan and I want to thank you for supporting me on our journey to seek the Knights Templar treasure, as I reward for your valuable assistance (And Stitch and Angel's too) I am sending you a check with the amount of one million dollars plus an encrypted Clan Kitsune document, show this to Panther to receive your fair share of the treasure. You thought I would forget your pay, did you?
PS: I think Jumba will be interested in some lost knowledge, so I sent a few scrolls along with your share. Be sure to get them and tell Panther I say hi.
