Chapter 729: Search for the Camp Treasure.
(Camp Mastodon.)
The day has begun, and the group are now getting ready for the big treasure hunt. Lynn Sr, Rita, Lori, Luan, Lynn Jr, Lucy, Lola, Lana, Lisa, Leni, Luna, Lincoln, Linka, Michelle Lewis and Lily, and of course they brought their Pokémon with them too. But where is Loni? Helping with some kids and they're knitting skills.
They gather to the main open area of the camp and then Linka looks to the map and she reads what it says. "Alright, so Captain Kit marked the starting point with an X, and we're all standing at where we should be."
"Then where the heck do we go from here?" asked Lola.
Lincoln then reads the map. "Begin you're journey with a starting clue, let this animal be a guide to you." He then looks around. "I doubt there were any animals here the other day and I don't think that guy counts." They see an ant hauling a sugar cube back to the ant nest.
They all go around and look for the clue, and then Lana sees a hornets nest, but then Rita stops her. "Lana, no. Those do not count." They all continue onward with the search.
Luan looks around the trees and then she sees something. "Found it!" They see the carved image of an alligator holding a campus. "The clue is not an actual animal, the whole thing is just a pun! It's a Navi-Gator! Get it?"
Luna then goes past Luan and she looks to the rock. "Look we got another one over here."
"Also here." Lucy is upside down as she points to another marked alligator guide on the tree. They hear Arcanine bark and point to another marker on a large rock, and then another carved onto an old fallen sign and they lead to the woods.
Lynn Sr smiles. "They're trail markers! Which means, if we follow them, then we're gonna get to the treasure for sure!" They all make the journey into the woods to look for the lost treasure of Captain Kit.
(Somewhere in the woods.)
They all continue down the path, and Absol looks ahead and then sees something, and then he goes back to the others and he points to something and they all see it. "Oh boy." They all see a fallen tree, and it bears the same marked alligator guide.
"Well, doesn't seem like we can go around it" said Michelle. "Anyone here have any ideas how we can get past that fallen tree?"
"We got this." Leni and Linka go around the forest and they see the large trees near where the tree fell, they then place they're hands onto the trees and soon they extend their roots and branches and help lift the tree upwards. "Alright, we're clear."
They all make it through the path, and then Leni and Linka use their powers to help root the tree back in place. "You're time was not out yet big guy, you still have a lot of lives to be part of nature" said Linka. She places a kiss on the tree and so does Leni, and this makes a flower grow onto it.
Linka and Leni then follow the others on the hiking trail, and they continue following the rest of the markers. But then Lincoln stops. "Alright, well this is weird."
They all go towards him. "What's the problem, Linc?" asked Lynn Sr.
"Well, says here that buttes will lead you to its mark, then head into the dark." Lincoln looks around and so do the others. "Doesn't even make a pun sense or even show any…."
"I believe I know what it is, and I do not mean the behind of Lynn." Lisa looks to the map. "It is the geological term for an isolated rocky hill formation with steep sides, or in this case, that." they all see the Butte. "We are closing into our find."
"Okay, so how the heck do we climb that big thing?" asked Lynn Sr. Leni, Lori, Luna, Lincoln and Linka smile, they know what to do.
(Somewhere at the Butte.)
Luna is making an ice platform going up, and Lori summons some lava rocks that then cool down and harden and it also heads up, Leni and Linka summon some vines to help them get to the top.
Lincoln…. Well, he figured something else out, he has his Shredder Blaster, turns it into shredder gauntlet mode and he points them down and switches to fire and then launches himself into the air and is ahead of everyone. "See you guys at the top!"
Luna chuckles seeing that. "Improvising along the way, kiddo." she then makes the platform go faster, and with some of the louds riding with her and also Michelle. Some of the Pokémon have made it to the top, Crobat and Volcarona can fly, obviously.
They all make it to the top and they look around the forest. Lynn Sr then takes in the air and he calls out. "Camp Mastodon!"
They then look to the map and Luna reads it. "Well, we made it to the big Butte, now it says we gotta head into…." they look to the skull-shaped cave. "The Dark, okay now it makes sense."
Lucy grins. "Head, and Dark. Two of my favorite things. It's a skull, now the clue is a pun for me to understand." she says so as she nudges Luan who doesn't like this pun.
They all walk into the cave. "Alright everybody, let's stick together and do not touch anything" said Rita. She then looks towards Lana. "Lana, no." The little girl is about to touch the bat, then Arcanine goes over and places her on his back and they continue to follow the others.
Lori uses her powers and she makes fire from her hand, and then she gets startled seeing a skeleton on the throne. "What the literal what?!"
They look closely. "Anyone think this is Captian Kit?" asked Linka. They then look around and they spot no clue, while Leni looks to the necklace. "Kinda odd for him to just sit here and wear this…" Then she hears something ominous. She kneels down to the bottom of the throne.
"Guys, I can hear air passing underneath the throne, something tells me that the clue is somewhere underneath the throne!"
They all go over and Lincoln uses his mask and he scans the throne. "She is not wrong, and it seems like a weight mechanism, and some kind of ominous energy for a trade or something, that necklace is the reason."
Linka then has an idea, she has her shades and she places it onto the skeleton and then she grabs the necklace. "There, at least he can rest in peace and still look stylish." The throne and skeleton glow purple and the throne moves aside and they see the tunnel below.
"Nice one" said Luan. She then has a glow stick and she throws it to the bottom and they see the light. "Alright, my turn to help us down there." She then has a bag, and then she pulls on the string and when it hits the bottom is becomes inflated. "I use this when I need a soft landing in battle."
The others also fall down and land safely onto the inflated bag, one at a time and Lily has fun doing this. "Again, again! That was fun!"
They all look around the cave and so Lynn Jr does something and she yells. "Ace Sports Star!" The sound echoes and this makes her chuckle. "Sure wish the team could be here to hear this. Alright, so what's next on the agenda of the clues?"
Linka then reads it. "Says here, listen closely and you shall hear, this sea song ringing in your ear."
"Maybe it has something to do with that weird looking guitar" said Lola. They all see the sea-born acoustic instrument and this makes Luna smile.
They go over and Lincoln sees the markings on it. "This is definitely from Captain Kid, mom can you play a sea song on this thing?"
Luna looks to the map and the clue and she smiles. "Well, it said Sea song, but I think the clue also means C, and that it has to be in the right key, in the high pitch for me to make it rock. Alright, so might wanna cover Lily's ears for this." Michelle does so and then Luna sings.
What she sings is something that Neil did long ago when they had the pool party at Spellman Estate, the sea song is called: I'm on a Boat. She does the song right and with the right tune and then the cave wall opens and they all see the gold, and are all in awe.
"We did it! This is it, we found Captain Kit's treasure!" said Lynn Sr. He's in tears and so they all go over and check out the riches they have discovered. "Now we can add more to help save Camp Mastodon!"
As they look to the treasure, Lola looks closely. "Everybody stop!" They all remain silent and they see Lola bite onto the gold and it crumbles. "This junk isn't priceless! This is all useless! This isn't the gold or treasure, and same with these gems!"
They all look at the treasure and then Lynn Sr is now concerned. "What?! But, this is all so shiny! Why would he make this kind of mean thing?"
"Where the heck would the real treasure be?" asked Luan. Lily then goes around and she sees a red ruby, and so she pulls on it and the cave shakes and she hides it.
"Oh boy" said Lynn Jr, they see the ceiling rocks are beginning to fall and Lori uses her lava powers to blast the debris. "Let's get outta here!" They all make a run for it. The main entrance is blocked and so they take another route and are safe.
"Well, I see that the treasure we found, was for those who seemed way too desperate in not knowing the truth" said Lisa. "Also, we appear to be lost, the main entrance has been blocked out, and we don't have any way through."
"I can use lava to dig our way through, but that would make things worse and the whole place will cave in" said Lori. She then makes another fire to light the way. "We should keep going." They all make their way through the cave.
As they travel, Lincoln and Linka use their masks to scan for any signs of a way out, but then Linka stops and sees something. "Guys, we got movement. We are not… Wait, never mind, Wolverine family."
"Let's not bother them" said Lana. "Wait, I think I know what would calm them down." She then grabs something from her bag and she tosses the sandwiches and the mother wolverine sees the food and she leaves them alone with the food. "We get passage and they get food, problem solved."
Luan chuckles. "Fair trade there." They all continue their journey through the cave.
(Later.)
They continue they're trek through the darkness of the cave, and then Lori stops. "Dead end." They all look to the wall, and see no way through. "Well, should I begin digging a tunnel?" she has her lava powers ready.
But then Lincoln notices something. "Wait, guys look. This is Captain Kit's Hat, now why would he leave this here on this rock?" He picks up the hat. "Now, why would he leave this here, unless…."
Luan goes over and she looks to the rock, she gives it a kick and it sounds hollow. "We got something." she then pushes the top of the stalagmite and the cave shakes. The floor beneath them breaks. "Well, this is something."
Luna can tell what's about to happen and so she makes an ice platform for all of them and they all fall down the hole, and the ice acts like a sled and they go through a long and clustered tunnel slide, they seem scared at first, but then some of them cheer. Lynn Sr is still screaming.
They then fly over some sharp rocks and Luna sees this. "Wow that was too close!" Crobat then flies off and uses gust and so does Volcarona and they all slowly land onto the ground.
"Way too close!" said Lana. "Also, where the heck are we?"
"Guys, come here." They all go over to Michelle. "The markings on the rock here, they look like the same ones on the map, and also like… The necklace from Linka!"
Linka looks to the necklace and she shows the artifact. "Yup, this is definitely a match, but look at the bottom of the symbol. It looks like it needs a gem stone."
"I got it!" Lily goes to them and she hands the red gem stone to Linka. "I thought this looked pretty, but now I see it's useful."
"Thanks, baby sister." Linka kisses Lily's cheek, and then she puts the necklace with the gem stone together and then she places the artifact onto the slot, the artifact glows and the cave wall opens and they see daylight, and the treasure!
"Wow! Let's go in and…" Lynn Jr is stopped with Rita grabs her.
"Not so fast, LJ." Rita looks to Lisa and Lola. "Go and check girls."
Lola and Lisa go towards the treasure and they examine the gold and gems and other treasures. "This is indeed legit treasure, and worth more. We did it, we found the real treasure of Captain Kit."
They all cheer and go over to the treasure. "Guys, let's load up!" Lynn Jr then puts the gold into her bag, and Luna makes an ice box for the gold to go inside and they load it all within. Luna then makes an ice sled at the bottom.
"This is gonna save Camp Mastodon!" cheered Lynn Sr, he does a victory dance, but he accidently hits the button on a rock. "Oh no, please no."
They see another wall is coming at them. "How many times do we have to face a literal trap?!" Lori uses her lava powers to keep the wall at bay. They look around for a way out, and then Lola and Lana see the river at the bottom of the cliff.
"Guys, maybe we can sail our way back to camp!" said Lana.
"On it!" Luna and Leni look to the lake. Leni summons some vines to make a formation in the water, Luna then freezes the part of the plants and another layer of plants comes and make the shape of a boat. "Look out below!"
The vines grab the ice sled and they lower it onto the frozen vine boat. "Alright, everyone jump!" said Linka. They all jump off the cliff and they are saved by the vines and some by Crobat and Volcarona and are lowered down safely.
They all take a moment to catch their breath and then Lynn Sr chuckles. "We did it! We found the long lost treasure of Captain Kit!"
"Hey, there everyone!" They all see who it is and are all surprised by who it is.
"Gramps!" It is the elderly man, who is the father of Lynnard Loud Sr, and he looks like him but with so much hair on his beard. They all see the old man move his boat near them. "Hey Gramps. Wait, how did you get here so fast?" asked Leni.
"Oh, well I got the Morse code from Lynnard here, it said Lard, Camp Mustard and Moat."
They all look to Lynn Sr confused. "Oh right, I was never really good with Morse code." He goes over to the other boat and hugs his dad and they all cheer at this moment.
They then watch as Leonard Loud uses the crane on his boat to help move the gold onto the boat, Leni helps with her vines, and this makes the elderly man chuckle. "Glad to see ya with… Well, powers."
They all make their way through the river and head back to camp. Lincoln sighs in relief and he sits onto the side of the boat with Luna next to him. "This is gonna be a treasure hunt the folks back home will never believe" said Lincoln.
Luna chuckles and she pulls Lincoln close to her. "Dang right kiddo."
To be continued in the next chapter.
