The Lost Treasure of Herz Der Sonne

Elizabeth's POV:

It was early in the morning when i heard Athena, my pet wolf, barking downstairs.

I went to see what all the fuss was about.

When i got downstairs Varian was standing at the door trying to calm Athena down, laughing a little.

Was he wearing a new outfit?

"What's all this?" I asked.

"Oh this? Thought i'd try a new look, like it?" He asked.

I walked up to him and adjusted the collar on his shirt.

"Handsome as always" i said.

We just stared at eachother for a minute before Varian spoke.

"I almost forgot! We need to go help fix the throne room!"

"That's today!? I completely forgot!" I said.

"What happened to the throne room anyway?" I asked.

Varian laughed nervously.

"Saporian attack"

"Right" i said.

Later (at the castle)

"Ok everyone, after the saporian attack this kingdom could use a pick me up" Rapunzel explained "and what better way to bring everyone together then with a community project!?"

The crowd cheered.

"With a little hard work and a whole lot of Corona spirit, we can rebuild this kingdom! So let's do it!" She said throwing shovels into the crowd.

A few minutes later

"Hey! I have the artistic eye!" Red yelled.

"You dip! I paint!" Angry yelled.

Almost everyone was arguing.

"So much for Corona spirit..." i said.

Eugene turned to Rapunzel.

"I know this is typically your thing, Sunshine, but if you're trying to bring everyone together maybe gruelling manual labor isn't the best idea" he said.

"Don't think of it as gruelling manual labor" Rapunzel said "think of it as creativity, through destruction"

Then an argument broke out about a wall, i wasn't paying attention.

"Hey guys! Look!" Rapunzel called everyone over.

"What's that?" I asked, looking at something on the wall.

"It looks to be some kind of map" Varian said.

"'Here lies king Herz Der Sonne's lost treasure'!?" Rapunzel read.

"You guys! Wait! This is an honest to goodness treasure map!" She said.

"I have heard the legend of Herz Der Sonne's lost treasure" Xavier said "it is said to be buried in his crypt, the tale begins with-"

"Uh, Xaves" Eugene cut him off "bottom line us would ya?"

"She is right, it's a map"

"This is just the thing to bring everyone together" Rapunzel said.

Later (Outside)

"How many of you have ever dreamed of having a treasure of untold riches?" Rapunzel asked.

Varian and i looked at eachother and shrugged.

"We are holding a Corona-wide race for the lost treasure of Herz Der Sonne" Rapunzel announced.

Sounds exciting.

The crowd cheered.

"But wait it gets better" she continued "Because this is about having fun together, everyone will be racing with a partner!"

"Who picks our partners?"

"Ah ah ah! Not who" Rapunzel said, uncovering a machine "'what'".

"Couldn't we have just pulled names out of a hat?" Eugene asked.

"Oh but it is a hat! I call it 'the horetory automated team-builder' or....H.A.T"

After a while everyone had gotten a team, well, it was uneven so we had a group of 3.

I was the last name so i got to pick.

My choice was obvious.

Varian and i were prepping up for the race at Xavier's, who we were teamed up with, which wasn't so bad.

"Hmm...the northern wind is coming" Xavier said.

"If only there were a way to catch it's mighty draft, and use it to our advantage"

Varian had a look on his face as if he was thinking about something.

"Wait! The saporians used hot air balloons! Uh, i know how to build one!" He said excitedly.

"Varian you're a genius!" I said.

"Oh, that reminds me of a legend of a mighty balloon" Xavier started one of his stories.

But he wasn't moving.

Varian and i ended up needing to practically drag him.

Eventually we were in the air which Varian was very excited about.

I had taken my hair out of the braids so i could feel it blowing in the wind.

"Hah! This is so great!" Varian said "i feel like a bird!"

I laughed a little.

"Indeed, have you heard the legend, of the known bird man of Swandale?" Xavier asked.

"No, uh, well, no...but uh-"

"The ancient people of Swandale were actually a sea barring tribe-"

Xavier just went on with his story and Varian looked so bored till he seemed to notice something.

"Hey look! Someone needs help!" He yelled.

I looked over to see what looked like a guard clinging to a rock.

"We need to help them!" I said.

Xavier lowered the balloon.

"Hang on! We're almost there!" Varian called down before we all climbed out of the balloon.

As we go closer something seemed off.

Varian held up the guard helmet, there was nobody there, just the uniform.

"Huh?"

Suddenly we noticed a shadow over us.

Our balloon!

"Hey!" Varian yelled.

"What are you doing!?" Xavier asked.

"Looks like we're winning!" One of the guards called down.

"You're playing dirty!" Varian said, stepping into the water.

"There's nothing in the rules that says we can't be smarter than you" Angry called down.

There goes our balloon.

A little later

Xavier was still telling his stories as i put my hair back into the braids and Varian was not happy.

Suddenly we noticed Rapunzel and her partner run by.

"Where'd they come from!? How are they moving so fast?" Varian asked.

We looked a little closer to see she was using roller skates and-

"Wait she has a map! Hey!! You're cheating!!" Varian yelled.

Then he fell into the water.

"Are you ok!?" I asked, helping him up into the boat again.

"Rapunzel has a map!" He said.

"What!? That's not fair!" I yelled.

"That reminds me of the legend of the cheating willows" Xavier said.

"Enough with the legends!" Varian yelled.

Later

"Hey! Cheaters!" Everyone was yelling as we entered the place.

"You're cheaters!" Angry yelled.

"Yeah that's right! I-bu- but you're one to talk you stole our balloon!" Varian said.

"That was well within the rules!" One of the guards said.

The crowd started shouting.

"Stop fighting and listen!" Rapunzel yelled "no one can take that treasure! It's cursed!"

"Why should we listen to a cheater!?"

"I'm not a cheater! Ok maybe you can make an argument i did cheat but it was to save your lives!" Rapunzel said.

"The girl's got the treasure!" Someone yelled.

We all looked over to see Red holding the box.

She tossed it to another guard.

"Stop everyone! It says here if you claim that treasure we are all doomed!" Rapunzel yelled.

Everyone was asking questions.

Suddenly Eugene appeared out of nowhere and took it.

"Yoink!"

"No! Eugene don't!"

Suddenly a red light filled the room.

Everyone was screaming.

"What did you do!?" Lance asked Eugene.

"10 on the doom scale! 10 on the doom scale!" Varian yelled.

Skeletons started appearing.

"The legend is true!" Xavier said "the undead protectors of Herz Der Sonne's treasure have risen!"

"What!?" Me and Varian yelled in unison.

"You know next time lead with the...high...doom...ratio legend!" Varian said.

Then a fight broke out but we won! It was...interesting...definatly a bonding experience.

Later

Varian and i stood at the entrance of the crypt as Xavier walked by.

"Good job, Xavier!" Varian said.

"Yes, you too kids" Xavier smiled.

"Hey uh, Xaves? I just realized, you never finished the legend of the Cheating Willows"

"Really?" Xavier said "well, it is a rather long story"

Varian and i looked at eachother and smiled before looking back at Xavier.

"We got time"

(I know i cut off alot at the end but it's very difficult to include everything when you need to write everything at the same time as watching the episode because at the time of writing this, this episode doesn't have a transcript)
