He goes on errands for me and
uses the chimney as his way in and out of the house. I sent him for a
couple of hamburgers a little while ago. I hope he doesn't forget the
French Fries and the catsup. I love French Fries and catsup, don't you?'
'Oh, I love French Fries and catsup, too.' Chug grins.
'Me, too,' from Sir Lumpalot. Kick-Pow paws the ground and tosses his
head in agreement. It's close to his mealtime.
'Let's get back to my questions, Bingbang Babbaloo,' says Stobey.
'What is this Great Rock and why do you guard it?
'What is this Great Rock?' Bingbang voice is almost back to a screech.
'Why do I guard it? The Great Rock holds the treasure.'
'What treasure? I don't see treasure.'
'Of course you don't, the treasure is inside. Would you like to see it?
'Yes, I would,' says Stobey and everyone with her nods.
Bingbang blinks three times. The huge rock shakes violently and the
cavern fills with the sound of heavy dragging chains. A crack appears in
the rock. The crack widens, lengthens, and curves along the top and
forms into a door. The door opens and they look into a lighted vault.
