Meep.

Really short chapter, but not the shortest. Surprisingly. But that's just the next one. Typing really long stories doesn't suit me...until it comes to Fire Emblem. But I'm not supposed to talk about that here.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Sol Emeralds or the Sol Dimension, but I do own its name, places, and shape(yes, I literally drew the map when I wrote the original story). I also own Arista, Pip, and the brief appearance(can it really even be called an appearance?) of Team Midget.

So, without further adieu, enjoy.


Chapter 9: Mansion Mix-Up

"Wait, Mystic Mansion? Are you sure, Pip?" It was an old mansion that was abandoned decades ago due to rumors of ghosts inhabiting it. Of course, if they hadn't built it over a cemetery, there would be no ghosts, but people aren't always that smart.

Pip nodded his head before running off inside, making me chase after him once again.

"Oh, for the love of...Pip, stop running off so much!" Great. I was lost in a haunted mansion without Pip, never knowing who was moving what around or who was passing by me. Perfect. Did I ever mention that I scared easy?

I heard a BOOM from another part of the mansion, followed by a bit of rumbling. I ran towards to sound and was surprised to find Pip lying next to the Emerald, a hole in the ceiling up through the roof. I pointed to the layers of holes, extremely confused. "How did that happen?" I looked back to Pip. "Did you have something to do with that?"

"Rup Rupf!" He wagged his tail, picked the Emerald up in his mouth, and ran over to me, placing the gem at my feet.

"Did you...?" I started laughing as soon as I realized what he had done. "You seriously knocked out the twins yourself?"

"Arp!"

"Did they know you were there?"

Pip paused before shaking his head. "Mrar."

"That is, like, awesome, Pip! Come here." I took him in my arms and rubbed his head, and he started licking me to death. "Ha ha ha…come on, stop that." I picked up the Emerald and said, "About time." And we walked right out of the mansion.


Yeah, lazy chapter ending. I'm like that a lot, jut so you know for future reference.

Last Emerald claimed! How is Arista planning on taking care of the Emeralds? Find out next time on Emerald Adventure!

...Yeah, I'm probably never doing that again. The title is just too...meh.

Later, people.
