Part Sixty Five
Buster Misses His Chance
The Fantasyers entered a huge cavern with a small
pool in its center. Turf looked into the pool to see an old, grumpy
fish.
"Cheer up, feller. We're here to get the
Cyclops," helped Turf. But Turf couldn't speak with fishes like
Buster who was busy somewhere else in the cavern for some reason all
of a sudden.
"Will you shut up about the Cyclops? What are
you, stupid?" angered the mystery voice. The What are you,
stupid? question was probably rhetorical because we all know the
Hero is stupid. "Stop talking to a dumb fish already!"
"I'm not stupid, you are!" insulted Turf
terrifically.
"Ha ha! Good one! Not!" topped the voice
as the Fantasyers left the room with the pool to explore a new
hallway leading west. They entered another cavern. This one had a
large set of double doors at the northern end. Turf tried to open
them but couldn't. An image of a Balanced Scale was carved on the
door. In one scale were rocks and in the other side were goldoons.
Er, I mean, golden light shining up from it. A clue!
"Darn locks," spewed Dade who checked the
door for traps.
"Earn your keep," Turf commanded Dade.
