CHAPTER 1
It was a cold and blustery December morning. Albert was outside gathering wood for the fire. He was just about to turn around and head back home when he saw two people coming through the woods towards him. Albert threw down the wood he was carrying and started to run……
Ken 3/19/21
After years of being vigilant and prepared, he’d finally let his guard down. They found him.
Anon
After years in the Seal team Albert had let his guard down after always looking over his shoulder. Albert was lucky that all the years of training it did not take long to kick back in. Albert was also lucky that he knew the area better than the two men that were walking towards him. He already had a plan in place for this very situation. His bug out bag was ready but his gun cache was also ready as he did not plan to leave peacefully. He was ready to make his stand once and for all.
Just then… Alberts mom walked into the room bringing with her the smells of bacon and biscuits. Upon entering his room she crushed the lego men [ the impending threats] and announced it was time for breakfast. Albert passed past his mom and down the stairs only to find…..
Blake and Katy 4/11/21
A monstrous beast, his Giant Maine Coon Cat, Zeus. He knew his days were numbered but thought…
I will call you Beaudrou, so with the loudest “WHOOYYAAA” he was able to summon his guardian angel. Instantly, the Maine coon cat was struck through the heart with his spear…….
The second it happened, the cat’s wife, Hena, appeared in the room. “Where is Zeus? I wanted to see if he wanted tuna or chicken for dinner” and she looked down to see his lifeless body on the floor

Hena couldn’t believe what had just unfolded in front of her. She was overwhelmed with a flood of emotions, her knees began to quake and tremble as if she were a newborn deer walking for the first time on a cold frozen lake. Just then her emotions started to switch like the weather out in the great Hill Country of texas. WHat Zeus did not know is that Hena knew all about Zues’ second life and family. “Serves him well!’ bellowed Hena, “you were a no good dirty cheater!” she then spat at the ground in disgust, did a dramatic 360 spin out the room and yelled “STELLAS BAAACK!”

CHAPTER TWO
As things took a very dramatic turn it was then that Hena was confronted by the Lord of the HillCountry, Lord Hemmingway, to be asked to take his hand in marriage. “I just got rid of one! WHy would I take another? So he can take all the catnip from me and steal all my fun toys?! No!”
The Lord rode off in disgust to her reaction to his proposal.
“BLEH MEN! Always coming to disturb the peace of mind I work hard for!” That is untill……
ANON
“Albert!” Lilly said to her little boy. “Its time for you to run upstairs and get ready for school.” Albert looked at his mom with a defeated expression and a loud sigh.

“Uh, ok”. Just then the day turned dark and a cold wind blew across the brick floor. The Young prince stood at the bottom of the cold damp stone stairs. He had traveled through Horn Valley and he had climbed to the peak of Dead Mans Descent, only to face…
Anon
A locked cave. Next to the cave was a box. Inside the box were three things
Anon
- A key
- A coin
- A poem

Albert took a close look at the seal on the poem. “Hill Country” was stamped in small red letters. He opened the letter and started reading.
“To Whomever reads this, I am at my wit’s end. This country is beautiful and cruel. I have found my love, she had the key to my heart until her untimely death. I took the key back and left it here. I no longer need it. I am old now, nearly broke. I have one magical coin left. I hope it serves you well. I will give life one last chance. I have recently seen a beautiful lady whose attention I hope to gain. Wish me luck. Who knows, this may be the spark this flickering flame needs. I shall love until love it’s gone. My love and life are in your hands. Love me now or I shall perish.”
Albert immediately tried to call his mother when the key burst into flames. The only thing left was one magical coin.
Ashley and Jesse 6/23/21
Albert took the coin and noticed there were words engraved on it. “Your adventure awaits” As Albert looked up to the cave, he noticed a coin slot. Without hesitation, he took the coin, placed it into the coin slot and the cave bars began to open.
