"I can see something shiny ahead," the orangatang noticed.

"Well, sounds like they've got it figured out then" Namita smiled. Shere Khan scoffed, "One things for sure, if they do come back with treasure we'll never hear the end of it" he said.

~~~~

"Never better" Hathi said, despite the flinch as he stood. "After all a soldier's gotta be prepared for anything right?". He turned at Louie's call and walked over, "What, what is it?" he asked, peering out at the shiny object himself.

"Let's go for a closer look." Baloo said looking at the object.

"What if the area isss ssstructurally unssound?" Kaa said as he looked at the shiny object trying to see it better.

"Eh, don't worry about it," Louie said, leading the way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I wonder what they think the treasure is anyways," said Bagheera.

Kit12 · **Reply #104 on:** May 31, 2009, 10:29:18 AM

"Yeah, everything about looks structurally sound to me" Hathi said.

~~~~

"Yeah, from what I've seen, most 'treasure' is stuff men left behind and they have an odd sense of what's valuable" Namita agreed. "Like one time...well don't ask what I was doing so close to a group of them, and Basdev gave me a lecture about it anyway" she sent her brother a smile, "but I saw a group of them and...".

"Woah, woah" Shere Khan interrupted, "you got close to a group of men?".

"Well...more like they startled me and I didn't run. They were odd too, not like the hunters I sometimes see, their skin was real light, and the fur on their heads too and they had lots of stuff on them that was shiny, including stuff in boxes that they had elephants carrying for them though I don't know how they convinced them to do that. I think that's what treasure is, though this was back in our old jungle so I don't think that's what Louie and them are looking for now".

"Hmm, you got more bravery than I first imagined to let men get that close to you" Shere Khan commented.

Sure enough, when the group did arrive at the sight of the shining things, the results were disappointing.

"This is a just a dumb human treasure," Louie grunted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I haven't heard of humans like that," Bagheera said.

Kor · **Reply #106 on:** May 31, 2009, 01:25:58 PM

"oh well. We had some fun exploring and spending time together so it wasn't all bad." Baloo shrugged as he said in his usual relaxed easygoing manner.

"Yea, at least nothing bad happened. Apart from someone falling on me." Kaa said.

"Sorry about that. Didn't see you there when I jumped." Baloo said as he looked to where Kaa was.

tempestwheel · **Reply #107 on:** May 31, 2009, 02:26:55 PM

However...something bad WAS about to happen.

"Who goes tere?" an ominous and mysterious voice called.

Kor · **Reply #108 on:** May 31, 2009, 02:46:48 PM

Kaa quickly got around Baloo, "Wwwhat isss tththat?" He said in a scared voice, peeking out from some coils.

tempestwheel · **Reply #109 on:** May 31, 2009, 02:49:13 PM

"I think I might know..." Louie gulped, "It's the giant cobra that guards this place."

Kor · **Reply #110 on:** May 31, 2009, 03:13:57 PM

"mmmaybe thisss iss good time to flee?" Kaa asked.

tempestwheel · **Reply #111 on:** May 31, 2009, 03:17:29 PM

"But I don't know where to flee to!" Louie panicked.

Kit12 · **Reply #112 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:30:08 PM

Hathi was just as scared and worried as the others, but he tried to put on a brave face and moved around to stand infront of the others, "N-now listen here Mister...cobra...sir, we, we don't want any trouble, we just heard there was a treasure here was all, but...well if it's yours we don't even want it, so...we'll just be on our way" Hathi motioned to the others to make for the exit slowly.

~~~~

"Oh yeah, they were really neat" Namita said, "like I said their fur on their heads wasn't just black like the humans you normally see, there was some black, so browns and even yellows, and they walked all...proud, like I would imagine a tiger would walk if he were on two legs like they are".

"Come again?" Khan asked.

"Yeah, they stood all tall as they walked through with the elephants that were with them as I said, I don't know what they were doing, but it was neat to watch 'em go by".

"and you said after this your jungle died?" Shere Khan asked, leaping down.

"Well...no...that happened a while after, so I don't think they did it or anything, it was the drought".

"Well I wouldn't be surprised if they did do it" Khan muttered, "humans are like that you know".

Kor · **Reply #113 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:22:36 PM

Baloo nodded. "It's not ours, we can't eat it, and it does look mighty uncomfortable to lay on and what use are hard shiny things anyway. We just had fun coming here." Baloo said in the direction where the voice seemed to come from.

tempestwheel · **Reply #114 on:** June 01, 2009, 05:01:58 PM

"Yeah, we'll just be going now if you don't mind..." Louie said, looking for an exit.

"So you're not after the treasure?" the giant cobra asked.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I agree with Shere Khan, I don't trust humans," Bagheera said.

Kor · **Reply #115 on:** June 01, 2009, 09:27:08 PM

Baloo waved dismissively with his hand, "Nah, what would any of us do with this stuff anyway." He said.

tempestwheel · **Reply #116 on:** June 01, 2009, 09:29:09 PM

The cobra seemed to calm down. "Then I will escort you 4 back to the surface," he said.

Kit12 · **Reply #117 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:39:23 AM

"You will, oh thankyou sir" Hathi said, trusting a cobra rather quickly all in all.

~~~~

"and I agree with them Namita, you should have darted off, as I told you when you told me about it that day" Basdev added, "Humans are bad news".

Namita sighed, "But, we only see them when they're hunting mostly, how do we know that the rest of the time they aren't just like us hanging out and...".

"We don't have that...flower of theirs" Shere Khan broke in, "my mom's told me all about what it does to a jungle".

tempestwheel · **Reply #118 on:** June 02, 2009, 04:39:33 PM

"Yeah, don't remind us," Bagheera shivered. Just then.....

~~~~~~~~

....the cobra used his massive head to bust a hole in the ceiling, revealing they were right under the Cubhouse!

Kit12 · **Reply #119 on:** June 03, 2009, 08:26:09 PM

"Woah!" Namita jumped back as the cobra popped up. "Where'd that come from?!".

"I don't know" Khan frowned, "but it's going away...". He snarled and leapt at the cobra, missing and looking more angry for it, crouching and preparing to strike again.
