Jetsam Attack!
The three pets were glad that they finally made it to
bottom
of Terror
Mountain. They were cold and hungry so they decided to buy some
Slushies.
The slushies made them even colder inside. After their cold slushies they
continued onto the Ice
Caves.
A little later they were climbing up the slope that would
lead them to the Ice Caves. As soon as they got to the Ice Caves they
looked at the beautiful scenery on the caves. When they were walking down
they heard a cracking noise. Looking down at the ground they noticed that
they were on thin ice! It was too late they were falling into the cold
water. They tried to swim up to the surface, but something was grabbing
at them,and everything turned black.
When the three pets woke up they realised that they were
in a tank,about the size of a cage somewhere under water. Luckily the
tank allowed them to breathe. After a few seconds of interpreting they
realised that they were in the underwater kingdom of the Jetsams. They
heard a Jetsam guard say something to the king of the Jetsams. Then the
King of the Jetsams came and said something to them.
"Why did you sneak into Jetsam Territory?" asked the King.
"We didn't sneak here we fell through thin ice,and then
he captured us,"explained Quik_Silver379.
"Likely story that's what they all say," said the king.
Suddenly Coffee32 came up with a plan. He thought he
might as well give it a shot.
"Mr. Jetsam king sir want to play a game?" Coffee32 asked.
"Fine, but what's the catch?" he said.
"The catch is, if I win you have to set me and my friends
free, and if you win you can do whatever you want to us," said Coffee32.
"OK, deal what's the game?" he asked.
"Cheat!"answered Coffee32, "I play it a lot and I'm getting
pretty good at it too."
"Is that so," questioned the Jetsam King, "You don't
stand a chance against me at that game, you want to know why?"
"OK, what makes you think you can beat me anyway?"
asked Coffee32.
"Because I'm Spectre, the self-appointed, undisputed
ruler of Cheat! There's no way you can beat me," explained Spectre.
"Coffee, I knew this was a bad idea," said Cybunny_the_bunny_99,
"There's no way you can beat Spectre."
"Yeah," said Quik_Silver379, "Have you read his cheat
profile? It says that when his red eyes are staring at you, you can just
feel them scanning your every movement.... If you cheat he'll know, there's
no doubt about it. Spectre's a Neopian millionaire, and only ventures
out of this castle when inexperienced players are up for a fleecing, and
for the annual Cheat! Tournament," explained Quik_Silver379.
"I know that," said Coffee32, "Listen, I'm gonna beat
this Spectre guy,and I'm going to prove it to you," he said.
Coffee32 and Spectre eyed each other, and one of Spectre's
servants passed out the cards. Coffee looked at his hand he had 2 aces,
a 6, a 7, a 9, a Jack, and a Queen. He nervously played his 2 aces. Spectre
let him slide and he played one 9. Coffee32 let him slide and looked at
his cards. Game play went smoothly, Coffee32 accused Spectre twice when
he was cheating, but something went wrong. Coffee32 stared at his hand
he only had a 2 and a 5, and he was only allowed to play 6s, 7s, and 8s.
He nervously laid his 5 down, and said it was a 7, but Spectre caught
him. Coffee32 got the pile of 3 cards added to his hand. Spectre took
his turn, and it was back to Coffee32 who could now safely play his five
which he did. Spectre played 1 two, and Coffee32 accused him,and he was
cheating. Coffee32 had his turn again. He looked excitedly at his hand.
There laid 4 2s. He could go out. He excitedly played all four of his
twos. Like Coffee32 expected Spectre accused him of cheating, but Coffee32
wasn't and he won.
"How could you beat me?" asked Spectre, "You little
cheater!" he said.
"Yeah, I cheated, and you did too," explained Coffee32.
"No I didn't," said Spectre.
"Yeah you did. That's why they call it Cheat! both players,
or all four players, are supposed to cheat. That's the whole point of
the game you know," he explained.
"I mean the other kind of cheat," said Spectre.
"What other kind?" asked Coffee32.
"You know," he said, "you little cheater."
"If nobody was allowed to cheat the game would probably
be called: Be Honest, X-Cheating, No Cheating, Honesty, or some title
like that," said Coffee32.
"You're confusing me," said Spectre, "Just get out and
take your friends with you!!!!"
Coffee32 and company luckily escaped the kingdom of the
underwater Jetsams. Cybunny_the_bunny, and Quik_Silver379 were shocked,
and surprised that he beat Spectre but they were all very happy.
After walking a little more they finally came upon the
dark crevasse that led to Tyrannia. Quik_Silver379 got a really long rope
and they used that to climb down the pit to Tyrannia. After a while of
climbing they found themselves at Tyrannia, the Prehistoric World.
