Chapter 16 by Shibbar Shibbar

What's next?

The orb seemed to be the same size as the spider egg

{if Roxxy is alive = true}"Wait! Hold on." Nora waved Roxxy down, and dropped her bag to the floor.

"What is it now?"

"What if it's like in that movie? The one with that archeologist fellow?"

Roxxy crossed her arms and chuckled. "'Indiana Jones'? Yeah I've seen all three." She emphasised there being only three movies. "They're pretty good, what about it?"

Nora took the large spider egg from her pack. "Just switch the orb out for this as you're picking it up."

"Oh gross," Roxxy recoiled, "I'm not touching that. You do it then."

"Fine by me." She walked over to the pedestle with the egg in hand. The orb gleamed. Her palms were sweaty. She counted down in her head. '3... 2... 1...' With one, blurred motion, the orb was in her hand, and the egg on the pedestle. They both stood still, not daring to even breathe.

Nothing happened.

"Whew," Roxxy breathed out, "See? Nothing bad happened."

"Nothing bad happened because I switched it out. Speaking of," Nora weighed the orb, "feels a little hollow."

"Seriously? Give me that." She snatched it from Nora's hand. "Aw, seriously? Pff, cheapscates. Still, it's gold. I guess you can carry it since you did all that switching and all."{else}"Hm, what if..." Nora unpacked the spider egg from her bag, and weighed it in her hand. She walked over to the pedastle. The orb gleamed. Her palms were sweaty. She counted down in her head. '3... 2... 1...' With one, blurred motion, the orb was in her hand, and the egg on the pedestle. She stood still, not daring to even breathe.

Nothing happened.

"Whew." Who knows what could've happened if Nora didn't have that egg.{endif}

Nora stored the Golden Orb in her pack.

What's next?
