Chapter Three

They walked slowly, keeping their ears sharp, and listening out for any noise.

"BANG!!"

"What the?" asked Crash.

Long creatures with four legs and a cannon head and two small eyes on either side was shooting rocks nonstop.

"Argh!" moaned Crash as he got pelted with a bit of flint.

"Duck!" he screamed.

"Mommy!" screamed Fake Crash.

Crunch grabbed the creature by the tip of the nose- or in this case cannon, and bent it. The creature overflowed with rocks and blew up.

"Nice one Crunch!" said Coco.

"Well, we'd better get going." said Crash.

A while later, they had made it to a cave.

"It needs two people to use earth to open the door. I'm going to have to teach you now." said Stonk.

"Can you give a demonstration?" asked Crash.

"Of course." said Stonk. He kept his hand in the same position, but was twisting it and turning it until a tree ripped out of the ground, and it fell on Fake Crash.

"Ow! I want my Mommy!!" whined Fake Crash.

"Ok, Crash, it's your turn." said Stonk, ignoring Fake Crash.

Stonk made a stone appear out of nothingness and he held it between forefinger and thumb.

"Go on."

Crash strained too much and it exploded.

"Ouch. Let's try that again." said Stonk. "Even if it kills me."

Crash was fine until he accidentally made it ping Stonk's eye.

"Ow! Never mind. Let's just get another expert."

"Expert?"

Stonk zapped Crash with a green lazer and he was copied.

The copy slowly gained differences:

It turned green. It turned robotic. It grew rockets instead of feet.

"Spear at your service." he said.

"Brilliant!" said Crash.

"What would you like me to do?" he said robotically.

"You and me are going to bash these rocks into each other and find a key hidden inside one of them." said Stonk.

"OK."

They bashed and bashed and bashed until a little golden key fell to the ground.Crash picked it up and turned the lock. they were in a dark cave with bits of crystal every where. They pushed a rock out of the way and it rolled over to a wooden post.

They walked into a temple and got into a walkway, but Fake Crash accidentally turned on a switch which released the big rock.

They were running for their lives on the walkway from the boulder making insane jumps and turns until a jetpack came out of Spears back and some seats ejected out.

"Sit and do your seatbelt." he said.

They obeyed and held onto their seats just in case. He boosted forward and they broke out of another cave.

"So." said a voice. It was Rok-Ko.

"So. You nine idiots made it past my boulder and to me. Well done. Now face defeat!!"

Rok-Ko was jumping everywhere in a huge stone body and slamming the ground.

"Move!" screamed Crash.

Everyone ran to different places avoiding the stamps and Spear flew up and punched Rok-Ko in the face. He exploded and disappeared.

"If the enemies are this easy to beat we'll be bored dead by Monday." said Crash.

Then, a female voice called from the water.

"Crash and friends, come to the lake, where I shall teach you about the art of Water." said the voice.
