The Ice Caves are Melting!

by epk

This is urgent. The Ice Caves are melting from a earthquake which caused a lava flow on the 20th day of Running, 6:00 PM NST. We asked Yulian, the local Lava Mote raiser, what he thinks. Also in the conversation are Nigel the Chia, the Negg/Earth/Snow Faerie, the Island Faeries, and Dr. Sloth.

Neopian Times: What do you think caused the earthquake?

Yulian: I don't quite know, but my Lava Motes are in the dumps. I'm afraid the earthquake made them sick.

Dr. Sloth: It wasn't me...I'll tell you that!

Neopian Times: Yes, we know it wasn't you...

Negg Faerie: The quake was so sudden, I called my sister, a Earth Faerie to see if she knew anything.

Earth Faerie: All I know is that all the Earth Faerie's are in a uproar. We think this earthquake was caused by Dr. Sloth.

Dr. Sloth: IT WASN'T ME!!!

Snow Faerie: I did notice the local Missing Link was gone. I assume he went on vacation.

Island Faeries: We were tending the local cooking pot and trading post when it happened. And BOOM! We got the entire island together. It appeared that our pets had all turned into mutants.

Dr. Sloth: That doesn't prove nothin'.

Nigel the Chia: The Ice Caves have spilt, so I suggest investing in all Ice and Water companies at the moment.

Earth Faerie: Oh sure...the Water Faerie will be glad to have you in on this project.

Nigel the Chia: And why not?

Dr. Sloth: Hey, do you want to try investing in VP?

Neopian Times: Enough is enough!

Yulian: Yeah...I did notice my Lava Motes were, more then ever, being sold to Kauvara because she needed something to burn a sudden appearing supplies of potions...say yours?

Dr. Sloth: It was a Get Well Soon Gift.

Nigel the Chia: Kauvara has the Neopox??? Aw...I forgot to invest.

Snow Faerie: Uh...she only broke a nail.

Negg Faerie: ACK!

Dr. Sloth: What is it?

Yulian: Guys, I think she broke a nail.

Nigel the Chia: BUY MAKE-UP PRODUCTS BY NEOGLO!

Neopian Times: So...you mention somebody broke a nail, and now the Negg Faerie breaks a nail. How does that all have to do with an earthquake?

Island Faeries: Maybe the Missing Link broke a nail also.

Nigel the Chia: Buy even more! Buy! BUY! BUY!

Earth Faerie: He is pretty big. That sound could of made a strong sound wave.

Snow Faerie: He doesn't have nails.

Nigel the Chia: Hey. False alarm

Dr. Sloth: You know, you could fix that by getting entirely new DNA...

Yulian: Fix what?

Dr. Sloth: Broken nails.

Earth Faerie: A mutant Faerie? And I thought the Space Faerie was weird.

Snow Faerie: She's my sister.

Negg Faerie: Then you're weird.

Neopian Times: What about the earthquake?

Island Faeries: Maybe the fact Mr. Plaid was discovered gone made the Big Spender yell so loud, there was a crack in the Ice Caves.

Snow Faerie: Uh oh...my house is in trouble!

Negg Faerie: Next time buy a Icestorm Negg!

Nigel the Chia: OH YES! I have to invest in that!

Dr. Sloth: Could you consider a line of...

Negg Faerie: NO!

Yulian: There is one clue...every time someone enters the Ice Caves, there is a slight rumble.

Negg Faerie: And the Snowager is scared out of his wits!

Nigel the Chia: And I did invest a lot in destruction companies lately...

Earth Faerie: Plus this earthquake was a 8.8 on the Richter scale.

Snow Faerie: It started around Mystery Island.

Island Faeries: And we heard a slight sound, like a Chia.

Dr. Sloth: And I had nothing to do with it.

Neopian Times: Right. But, the Missing Link has been seen around the Catacombs lately...

Number Six: May I have a word?

Dr. Sloth: Who invited him?

Well, that's it. We have a lot of upset faeries, one confused Dr. Sloth, a anxious Mote raiser, a super hyper stock broker, and one Web site founder. That's all for now. Until the next update...but a lot of Ice Motes next time you visit the Ice Caves, it may be the last ones.

Yulian: Lava Motes are better!!!!
