Death Star: episode #12 Magnetic Rocks and the Wall of
Lights
“Ahh...Back to normal. Mr. Idiot, you dumb dumb. I know all that. Remember I got here, too.” Before anything else could happen, Vader ran into the strange lights one of us noticed until now. Mr. Idiot does not notice us. “Drat! He’s there. I had better search the area...I want to see. Some thins: Idiot taking a certain diary/journal head disappears seeing the Mountain. We seize the opportunity to go exploring the area. We’re not sure how long Mr. Idiot will be gone, but we’re all fairly sure he won’t be back for a while. We take a moment to look around us. We are standing on fairly flat piece of land. A cave is nearby. Then, almost next to the cave are gray rocks and the wall of lights that Darth Vader (Mr. Siesel) disappeared into. Paul says,” I’m going to check out that cave.” Jaclyn says, “I’ll come along!” Paul goes to the cave. Jaclyn close on his heels. Jameson, however is interested in the lights. “I’m going to check it out.” “Be careful,” I say. “Don’t worry, Lissy, I will.” He says as he briefly turns around and smiles at me. Cornelia however decides to go keep guard in case Mr. Idiot comes back unexpectedly. Paul takes out his compass. The arrow goes crazy when he takes it out: “What the...” Jaclyn peers over Paul's shoulder. “Come here you guys, something really strange is going on here,” says Jaclyn. Everyone rushes over. including Jameson and me. Wendy crouches down to pick up a pocketknife she just dropped. When she picks it up, a little piece of rock is tuck on the knife. Jameson sees it. He says,” Wendy, let me see that.” She gives it to him. “These rocks are magnetic!” Everyone looks at him in surprise. I take out something lying on the ground out of the corner of my eye. It’s half buried in a thick layer of dirt, but I see a slight glow so I reach to take what it is. It appears to be some sort of hatchet or something. “Look,” I say holding it up. I put it next to show Wendy one of the rocks. “All these gray rocks are magnetic. Meanwhile, Mr. Idiot goes down the mountain. He says, “So this must have been the path they took.” He follows the sandy part down onto a beach. Mr. Idiot smiles. He steals some tools from people at their lunch break, one thing being a detector to find lost things. “Good, it even finds wood. That’s what I need,” He runs the detector over the entire area. It beeps at one point. He digs and he sees what he wants to see...remains of an old sea ship.... He covers it back up and starts going up the mountain. Cornelia sees him when he approaches. Cornelia quickly looks to see us still by the cave. Mr. Idiot sees Cornelia and starts running at her. “Quick, get to safety! He’s coming!” “What do we do,” asks Ashley. Jameson says, “The lights,” Paul says, “Are you crazy?” Jameson says, “What other choice do we have. Vader went that way. It must be safe if he did.” Kristen says, “That’s not very reassuring,” I say, “Yes, but what other choice do we have? Let’s go.” We quickly run over to the lights. Cornelia runs to join us. Mr. Idiot almost grabs Cornelia's leg, but fails to notice a log and trips over it. We all get by the lights safely. Without thinking, we keep running...through the lights...
Until next time!
