"Adventuring With My Spidie"

" Hello My Grandkids!

You wanted me to show the stuff inside all my chests, but it's too much, and some was just for me and not to be read etc.

So, today I'm going to tell you a little story instead! "

                         

                      Adventuring With My Spidie

As Spidie and I were out adventuring, we came to a dark opening in a large rock at the base of a mountain. "Oooh... that looks spooky",  I said, as I looked down at Spidie.  He chirped and squiggled a bit to let me know that he was ready for anything! As always! I had to laugh at him!

We walked into the dark opening and followed a short, dimly lit passage. It soon opened into a small cave which was covered with sparkling, tiny, blue lights. They looked like jewels imbedded in the rock!!  I took out my pick axe and tried to chip out some of them.. but weirdly I could not!  I looked around.  Maybe it was a  magical place?  I heard Spidie's clicking little feet on the stone and gravily floor as he was looking around at stuff.

I walked over to him, "What did you find Spidie?" I asked.  He was standing before a table and trying to see what was on it. He would look up at me and click-clack and then look back at the table.  So I picked him up and we both looked at the treasure.  And it was treasure!  There were several golden coins dropped casually onto the table,  a small, guttering candle and an old looking chest. It was dirty, with a few cobwebs attached and one hinge on the lid practically falling off! When I opened it, inside was a skull!  It had a small knife still sticking into it's eye socket!!  Spidie squealed and jumped out of my arms and ran, clacking, to the other side of the cavern!! To my chagrin I wasn't far behind him!!

We looked at each other , then hurried on to an opening into another, cramped passage. We then entered a small room which we both could hardly get into! The only think in the room was a large chest. "Well Spidie,  maybe this one has some REAL treasure in it! Spidie made a quick clicking which I didn't know if it was,   'open it!'  or 'let's leave!'!! But I felt like this might be something good!!

I carefully lifted the lid which thankfully wasn't locked, and was immediately hit by spears coming out of the doorway!! Thank goodness Spidie was down on the floor! I wasn't hurt as I had on full armor, thank goodness, but it had knocked me to the floor.  Spidie and I looked each other in the eyes, and I said, "This is going to be good,  I just know it!!"  We both looked at the chest,  and I hauled myself up and we walked over to it, his little feet clicking and clacking.

He stood up on his back legs and gripped the edge and I did the same.  We peered inside and there was enough gold and jewels to buy anything we ever could want!! We looked at each other and I gasped while he chirped! I think we were both a little giddy!!  Spidie helped me find some old leather bags and I scooped up all that I could carry.  "Let's get out of here Spidie.  I will buy us a nice home, cool clothes... Spidie squeeked in astonishment.. "well, clothes for me," I laughed.

There was a door out of that room that took us back outside. We left with our treasure and headed for our new life, with me singing and Spidie chirping and dancing!!
