Lumens forth mission

"Ok Nero wish me luck"  Lumen said and flapt his white feathery wings and took off.The Tropic Canyon was not wery far and were soon in his sight.Lumen spotted a small cave and flew gracefuley down to it and landed before the opening.It seemd uninhabited but to be on the safe side he called into the cave " Hello ? someone there!", no response.He walked in. Lumen looked around the caves walls.Small and big white glowing crystals were allover the place,there soft glow iluminating the small cave making it easy to see in it.Lumen spotted a pretty big but not to big crystal growing out of the wall "perfect!" he thought. He took it and began to pull it out but it sat a bit to hard."You want it that way?  fine!" he said and pullled hard.The pull took a too hard strain on his body and he feelt how a small vein in his nose popped " Ow !" he said and coverd his snout whit his paws. " Better be careful now" Lumen thought.He reach for the crystal again  and gently began to pull it out from the wall,he chould feel how it began to losen from its hold and whit a rather loud PLOK ! it was in his paw, "Allright !" he cheered " one down three to go" he said. Suddenly he feelt how a small rock fell on his said "What the-" he said before anothe rock fell .... and another !, he realized that the cave was about to fall in ! "Oh damn ! i better get out now !" he said and rushed for the cave entrance.Just as Lumen was out of the cave he heard a loud CRASCH ! he looked around and saw that the opening to the cave was blocked by a rockslide. "opps heh i hope that it was not sooo important" he said embarrassed. "Well i better not stop here got three left ya know!" he said back to his cheerful mood again

" Now leets see what is next on the list hmmmm " he said and looked. "Oh looks  like its Barium Ore !, okidoki Nero said that it was close to the Vally so what am i whaiting for here i go ! " and whit a boysh laugh he threw himself up into the sky.


Lumen flew a bit over the Vally of Draco before he spotted the mine in the field just like Nero had told. He landed in the high green grass and began to walk, the jade green grass tickled his grey  sides and toes , he laughed softly and strolled through the field.The mine was indeed small and he froze at the notice of this. " I s..should have told  Nero  about my claustrofobia" Lumen wimpered . he looked at the mines opening and gluped hard. " I hope that this one wont fall in" he said whit a nervous laugh.He walked in. It was pitch black, every nerve in his body screamd for him to activate his  Light powers against the suffocating darkness that filled the mine," No i have to stay strong !" Lumen said to himself and went further into the mine , he glimpsed a light and walked to it , to his great relife it was a torch, it burned bright and gave him strenght.Lumen saw two big ore lumps together and pulled them out of the wall, he closed his eyes tightly  and whaited for the rock to fall and the walls to begin to shake and fall abart , but nothing happend. Lumen soon realized this and ran out of the mine as fast as his legs chould carry him. He rushed into the sunlight and heaved a happy shaking sigh, " Two out of four " he said " Now its only the Diamond and the Nepherit left". Lumen got ready and took to the air again.

He was soon walking in a small wooded area and saw a grey cave and walked to it , it was not far from the vally and seemed rather nice infact , he walked in and saw to his amazement that the cave was adord whit countless diamonds along its walls , a ray of sunshine seeped through a rather large hole in the roof of the cave, the sunlight reflected on the diamonds and filled the cave whit sparkling light in countless colors,  "Wow  this is fantastic !" he breathed. he spotted a large diamond as big as one of his paws and grabbed it and whit a careful and graceful flick off his paw it losend and he put it in the bag whit the rest of the supplies. " Three out of four ! almost done ! Lumen said excitedly. "Well i better go look for the Nephrite , Lumen began to walk out of the cave when something black glimeded on one of the walls , " Whats that ?" he exlemed and walked closer to take a look , it was a black beautiful stone whit small silver dots , it almost looked like a piece of the night sky had fallen of , it glemded in the sunlight more fantatsic then any diamond , " its beautiful, chould this be the Nephrite ? , if so i mite a well take it !" he Cheerfuley declred and whit his with his pink tongue dangling from his mouth comically , he dumped it into the bag . "Now its back to Nero and Shanido !" said Lumen and felw back to the vally , it was dark and he hoped that he was not worfying Nero , a little while later he landed in the Vally and began to search for Nero and Shanido.
