Hello everyone!

It's been pretty much a year since I last updated this story. whoops.

I honestly don't have much time to myself any more.

So I hope you enjoy this chapter.


Chapter 53 - A Rumblin' And Tumblin'


As Tock disappeared from the room, Aerrow and Piper prepared to take on the patrol if by any chance they would enter that room, which was unlikely considering the room looked like it hadn't been touched for years.

Piper peered through the gap in the door and watched as the patrol stopped just outside their door.

"You ever feel like you're being watched?" One Night Crawler asked the other as they stopped just outside their door.

"Well of course, Master Cyclonis has her eyes everywhere!" the other responded.

"Really?" he remarked nervously.

"Of course not you moron, but if she did...you'd be in serious trouble"

"What? Why?" the Night Crawler panicked.

"If Master Cyclonis found out that one of her elite guards picked. Their. Nose. I'd think you'd get a whipping"

"Ha! But I don't pick my nose!" the Night Crawler announced almost too proudly.

"Tell that to the gold nugget under your finger nail. Jeez man, can't you at least flick it away?"

The Night Crawler looked down, bright red "I-I was going to save it for later" Piper nearly hurled right there and then.

After a few minutes of the two Night Crawlers bickering about each other's hygiene, they moved on.

Aerrow sighed with relief "that was to close for comfort, ah Piper are you feeling alright?" he asked the queasy navigator who returned a sharp gaze.

Later on, back in the vent, Aerrow was leading this time thanks to his comment the last time they were crawling through the vents.

"So, how much further do we have to crawl through this vent? It's starting to get really stuffy in here" Aerrow commented as he crawled forward.

"Tock said just a little bit fur-" before Piper could finish Aerrow fell forward sliding down the now sloped vent. He grunted in surprise as he gained speed, faster and faster he went until he could see a light at the bottom of what looked to be a way out, but he was going to quickly to slow down in time.

Aerrow went crashing through the vent door and landing heavily on the ground. Aerrow laid there for a few seconds before sitting up and rubbing his back. As Aerrow slowly stood up, he discovered what he had landed on.

It was a mountain of gold, piled up in the middle of what looked to be a cave, with solid rock to his right and the rest looked to be underwater.

Aerrow was about to look around when a familiar figure came barreling down the ventilation shaft.

It was Piper, and before Aerrow could move, she shot out of the vent and landed on top of him with a thud.

Once again, Aerrow was lying atop the mountain of gold, only this time with Piper sitting atop of him wincing in pain.

"Are you alright?" he asked from underneath.

Piper stopped moving at the sound of his voice and looked down at him, quickly jumping to her feet after meeting his eyes.

"Aerrow! Oh I'm sorry, are you okay?" she worried as she helped him up.

Aerrow waved her off with a smirk as he regained his feet.

The two were now standing facing the mountain of gold.

"Why is there a pile of gold down here?" Piper asked to which Aerrow shrugged.

"I wasn't talking to you" she responded sticking her tongue out at him.

For the next minute or so the two would forget where they were and begin making faces at each other.

After the two stopped pulling faces at each other they split up to search the room.

The cave they were in was huge, around the size of a Rex Guardian Arena, with the ground covered in all different kinds of golden objects from coins to crowns, jugs to lavatory seats.

Piper wandered aimlessly through the piles of gold, keeping her eyes to the floor, when she suddenly bumped into something, knocking her off her feet. Having not fully recovered from her slide down the ventilation shaft landing on her behind hurt, alot. She looked up to see what she had run into. At first it just looked like an ordinary golden statue but on closer expectation Piper soon realised what, or in better terms 'who' she ran into.

With eyes wide Piper took a couple of steps back before screaming to Aerrow.

Aerrow came running as soon as he heard her voice only nothing could prepare him for what he was about to see.

As Aerrow ran past another pile of gold he found Piper who was just standing there, her hand over her mouth as she stared in the things direction.

"Piper?" he spoke before he too saw what she had run into.

"I-Is that...what I...WHO I think it is?" Aerrow stammered as he moved to Piper who, as soon as she spotted him, ran into his arms.

"It-its Domowich..." Piper whispered as she stood there staring at the golden Archaeologist.
