With the cry, Lucas and Estrella stopped conversation, adopting serious expressions and hurrying to the one having made a discovery.
He was standing in a ten meters deep hole, with a dark surface beneath his feet. His expression was joyous, as after a few days of being fed the strict minimum amount of food and water, he could almost feel the taste of his reward for being the one to find what the monster and her man might have been looking for.
When the couple came and saw the dark surface, they made other people come help widen the hole before carefully jumping into it to avoid having the fluid sand hurry back to its place and bury the discovery.
Lucas bent down and felt the surface that despite feeling like metal stayed at a cool temperature beneath the hot sand.
*BANG*
