5. Chapter 5 - The Master Emerald

Chapter 5: The Master Emerald:

Barnaby's POV:

I was walking when I found the Master Emerald. "So, this is where she's keeping it," I said.

"Barnaby," says Longclaw, "get away from that! It's dangerous!"

"Why did our ancestors take the Master Emerald," I asked.

"Its power started to corrupt its creators, the Echidnas," says Longclaw, "it was the only way to save them from themselves!"

"Well, it'd probably make a nice disco ball," I suggested.

"Don't even think about it," says Longclaw.

"Oh, alright."

. . .

The next request was a drinking party. I have a headache.

. . .

"They sure are thinking of crazy requests," says Longclaw.

"I know, right," I asked, "I can't wait to see what the next request is... ow, I'm talking too loud!"

. . .

I was then getting ready for the next party. I looked at the Master Emerald. It sure is shiny. "Oh well." I then walked away from it.
