Liam continued to list off more creatures, and boasted that they weren’t a match for them. That brought a grin to the Anatheman youth’s lips along with an eager laugh. Hell yeah! Well, that was certainly something to consider. Nothing can beat our combined power, he said with a grin. Oh, yeah. The two of them would make quite the team, Jackson decided. The fearsome Liam and Jackson, everybody watch out!
So now they had to put that teamwork power together there in their search for treasure. In such a dilapidated old building, who knew what they would find or how dangerous it might be to uncover it. Jackson agreed with his new friend that it would be awesome if they could find some cool items that hadn’t been messed up by time. Yeah, man, there’s gotta be something awesome that’s in good condition in here. I can feel it! He looked up eagerly as Liam triumphantly shouted when he opened the shelf. His dejected sigh, however, revealed that their ‘treasure’ wasn’t to be found in there. Damn, no luck yet.
The other youth listed off a few ideas of what might’ve been in Jackson’s mysterious box. Food? Dang, maybe. He didn’t want to think about how long food might’ve been in there if that was the case. He nodded at the encouragement and set about trying to see how he could open the box up. Alright, let’s see what you have to offer. He worked his fingers around the edge of the box’s lid and pulled, but it didn’t budge right away. Jackson frowned at it, gave the thing a good whack, then tried again. That was the charm. The lid opened up to reveal… a collection of small toy cars. The hybrid frowned at the contents, reaching in to pick up one of the small cars. What the… he stared at it for a moment before glancing back up at his friend.
