CHAPTER FORTY-ONE:THE REAL PEACE

It was a fine Sunday morning, in the early 1790s. King Sam was relaxing on the beaches of Taron. Suddenly, his servant approached him and said"Your Majesty, there is a Catland freight ship approaching Dogland, carrying some sort of treaty. Please tell the whole army not to fire at the ship if they see one."
"Very well. It is understood."
The news spread about Dogland and dogs started to get suspicous about this case. It could be a trap, Emmeline Swigert thought. If you read the last chapter you'll probably know about Emmeline Swigert. But King Sam thought of no trap.
A few days later, the ship arrived at the Dogland Royal Palace and King Ben Ismet, who assumed throne after he killed King Alexander Fernando, disembarked from the freight ship. The Dogland monarchys were ready to meet Ben Ismet.
"Good morning, mighty and wise leader of Dogland."
"Same to you, wise and mighty leader of Catland."
So, they went to King Sam's palace and they discussed their objections for peace.
A court jester said"Oh no! A talking and smiling blueberry!"
The room burst into laughter. Soon after that, Catland Monarch Ben Ismet and Dogland Monarch Sam Ronaldson's objection for peace were accepted. King Alexander(Dont confuse this with Alexander the Great of Macedonia! Its King Alexander Fernando of Catland!) did not sign a peace treaty when the cats evacuated from Dogland after the disaster at the Dogland capital. This had come to Ben Ismet's attention and he decided to sign a peace treaty with Dogland. He also asked Sam Ronaldson if he could have a tour of Dogland for a few days.
Sam Ronaldson said'yes' and they iomproved relations and King Ben Ismet got to know more about Dogland in the 4-day tour.

CHAPTER FORTY:BIOGRAPHY OF DAN VERSULYS

Name:Dan Versulys
Nationality:Doglander
Lived:1801-1879
Birth place:Taron
Death place:Mt.Emerald
Biography:
Dan Versulys was born in Taron, Dogland on 28 August 1801.
Mr Jack Versulys and Mdm Emmeline Swigert lived in prosperity. Jack worked as an astronomer and Emmeline worked as a carpenter. Jack was the one to discover the planet Graziani, 370 000 000km from the Sun.
Unlike his parents, Dan Versulys wanted to actually invent his own things. In 1827, WWII(There were altogheter three WWs) broke out in Animalland. Dogland, although unaffected, wanted to defend itself. Dan Versulys decided to R&D a new kind of weapon.No matter how hard it was, he persevered.
On 28 August 1831, Dan turned thirty. It was a coincidence as he had finished researching on his weapon on his third decade living in this world as well. No, he had not developed it yet.
Dan Versulys hired some dogs to work with him in the development of his weapon. Soon enough, the first firearm was made in the whole of history: The Rifle. He named it the Swigert Rifle, in memorial of his mother, Emmeline Swigert(Madam). The military was fascinated by Versulys and told him to make many of them. Within a few years, he made many of them.
When he turned 60 on 28 August 1861, he retired from his work. He decided to go find some peace and quiet, and decided to buy a car for 4800GP, and drive up Mt.Emerald. It was a beautiful place. Soon, he settled down in Emerald and lived there peacefully for the rest of his life.
He actually got married in 1829, when he was 28, to a wife named Anne Pascal.
He died on 29 December 1879, and 28 August would be the"Versulys memorial day".

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE:A MARTINISTS NIGHTMARE

The wait was almost over. Not much more waiting. No second best. The new Temple was about to be finished soon.

Little did they know, a pack of ruffians that burnt and killed anything in their sight was going to the new site for the temple. They had stolen an abandoned cannon in the woods of Tokara. They were not sure where they were going. All they knew is that they were ruffians. But they did not care. They wanted gold, prosperity and almost everything a dog could ask for. They knew that that would happen someday, or would it.....?
A few days later, the temple would be completed. It could be used by Martinists to worship Martin and the moon. Little did they know, doom was coming. Not a single soul in the house of worship had single clue about the doom that was about to come. But they would know soon.
Then suddenly, BOOM! A cannon pierced the walls of the new temple.
"WHAT THE....!" cried Pastor Micheal D. Lusogini.
Then, BOOM! another cannon shot through the temple. Now, 6 lives were claimed.
"This should not be the case! This place is protected by Martin at all costs!"
"WHAT THE HELL?"
"AHH, HECK!"
"DAMN IT!"
"AAAH!"
"HELP!"
The whole temple was in panic. Soon, the pack of ruffians crashed through the door and made their way into the temple. Then, they killed a few dogs. Micheal D. Lusogini was one killed. They stole any gold they could find and lighted the whole works. Then they fled. The remaining dogs inside were trying to flee. Suddenly, the place went BOOM! The whole temple was blown up and 20 lives were claimed. It was the worst nightmare a Martinist could have,
As for the temple? The temple got blown up, but the pack of ruffians? Their wherabouts remain unknown....

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT:THE MOON BATTLE

(2 hours later, Martin wakes up)
Chang Er,"YOU STUPID DOG!!!"
(Martin grabs his weapon)
Martin,"Take this you crazy, psycho lady-- OWW!"
(Chang Er was hitting Martin with a broom)
The battle went on as Martin flew and pierced Chang Er on the head and Chang Er kept hitting Martin continously. Martin, with is platinum blade, decided to prick Chang Er once again. But as he approached her, Chang Er kept on hitting him!
Martin,"Im gonna have your rabbit for lunch tomorrow, jerkass!"
Chang Er,"Well if thats what you think... :-Þ youre a loser
(Chang Er was pierced by Martins blade and collapses)
Martin,"Ahah! Now to get that damn rabbit! Now wheres that idiotic rabbit.."
(Martin sees the rabbit)
HEY! YOU COME BACK HERE!
(Martin gives chase)
The rabbit was running for its life while Martin hovered into the air and grabbed the rabbit. At the same time, Chang Er awoke
Meanwhile, Down there in Dogland...
People could see 2 strange figures on the moon.
Dog 1,"EHH?"
Dog 2,"What the--"
King,"Oh hush, theres a battle on the moon"
Servant,"Why dont you hush too!"
(Back in the moon...)
Now, YOU STUPID DOG!!! TELL ME HOW YOU--(Chang Er gets pricked and the battle begins)
Die You stupid psychowoman! You need to see a doctor!
Do I? Oh is there any doctors on the moon? I THINK NOT!!!!
6 hours later...
King,"Ehh, there be noises coming from the moon."
Servant,"Looks like there is a fierce battle.."
Dog 1 runs into his home.
Dog 2 grabs Dog 1 by his clothes
(back in the moon..)
Both of them, Chang Er and Martin, laid on the floor of the moon, as 2 of them defeated each other in the battle.
(37 hours later.. another battle begins)
Martin,"THIS IS MY TERRITORY!!!"
Chang Er,"You stupid DOG!!!"
(Chang Er was defeated by Martin and faints)
Martin,"Yum Rabbit Stew...... can't wait..."
(Martin cooks the rabbit and devours it)
Hah, see i could defeat that psychowoman!
(With that Martin turned over and went to bed)
Business carried on as usual in Dogland and the moon had a strange shape.
King,"What WAS going on last night?"
Dog 1,"Uhh... dont know... its in the shape of a pear... weird.."
Dog 2,"Let's go home, shall we?"
Servant,"King, maybe because of the battle on the moon, it became a pear shaped."
(The king was like o_O)

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN: MARTIN ON THE MOON (as told by Schumanzer)

I am utterly confused. After travelling for thousands of miles, I never did find the 'Red X' on Martin's treasure map. That's why you have not heard from me ever since I bought the map.

I am completely pooped out now. Think I'll take a snooze. My body is aching all over and my eyelids feel heavy, heavy, very heavy....

(Three hours passed and Schumanzer rouse with a start!)

I know where Martin hid the treasure map. You won't believe me if I tell you I just met Martin...will you? I must admit I'm a little woozy, but I am sure it was Martin.

Can you guess what He's doing? Chasing the mad rabbit! And a lady in a funny-looking robe (Lady Chang Er?) was chasing Martin too!

"Don't you dare chase my rabbit!" the lady shouted angrily at Martin. "It is helping me make the elixir of life...it's for my husband, so he can join me on the moon," she shrieked.

"You STUPID DOG! How did you end up here on the moon?" she cried in desperation.

"Rabbit meat, Rabbit stew, I can't wait!" barked Martin; panting and grabbing the rabbit by its tail.

" Take this!" howled the not-so-ladylike Lady on the moon; smashing Martin's head with a broom.

Martin fell.

Can you believe it? The God Martin has fallen, defeated by a Lady with a broom???

As Martin fell, I saw the RED X on the palm of his paw! My treasure, it's on the moon. But I don't know how to get there.

With a howl of anguish, Schumanzer tore up the map and fell asleep!

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX:THE TORNADO OF MOOSELAND

_______________________
DOGLAND TIMES
______________
The ship Anson was leaving pier 27 of the Siranhha Port. It was on its maiden voyage to Mooseland, carrying 160 passengers. Anson was carrying 22 Tonnes of cargo.
After 18 hours of travelling on the sea, the ship was at the Mooseland and Dogland border in perfect condition. Captain Gregory Michellin said he estimated there would be 29 hours of more travelling, and asked passengers to go underneath.
After 25 more hours, the ship was at Mooseland, far away from its destination. 2 hours later, captain Gregory Michellin alerted the crew and passengers of an approaching tornado and attempted to re-direct the route. But it was too late. Captain Gregory ordered the passengers to evacuate. However, the supply of lifeboats was not sufficent. Only 60 passengers managed to escape the tornado.
30 minutes later, the tornado ripped Anson into pieces, along with Captain Gregory, 100 passengers and the whole crew. A total of 150 futures were taken away from this disaster.

The finding of the ruins of the ship was carried out and it was found under the Timon Ocean.

Jackie Larson says,"Mooseland was unprepared for this incident and as a result, many of us Mooselanders futures were taken away. This shows that we must always be prepared."

Dogland King Sam says,"As mother nature introduces natural disasters into this land, we must prepare for them should the worst happen. Preparing helps reduce the number of futures taken away."

The disaster stats were announced:
2260 killed
87 ships destroyed
400000 injured
39978899 properties destroyed.
Sub-Total cost to rebuild property and re-buy marine vessels:70000942190GP

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE: Schumanzer's folly?

Schumanzer yelped with joy as he held Martin's treasure map in his paws. He paid 300 GP for this and it had better be good.

Born of rich German parents, Schumanzer has seen his fortunes dwindling since he became an avid collector. Quite a collector he is too--mostly of useless things: a dictionary of 5000 useless words; a rare book of useless facts and lies; and the list goes on...

"Alas! another collectible!", he murmured to himself, as he tore open the package containing his treasure.

To his horror, he can't decipher the treasure map. He turned it upside down, then sideways and then all around, hoping that something sensible would just jump out of the map when he did that.

Actually, Schumanzer never went to school and he cannot read a thing. When he does, he reads from right to left...so the word: M-A-R-T-I-N is read as N-I-T-R-A-M, which of course make no sense.

After studying the map for an hour or so, he decided that the treasure must be where the red X is.

" X marks the spot!",he revelled in his cleverness. That was what his dad used to say all the time when they were looking at things in the map.

So began Schumanzer's journey to look for that special place in Dogland that is marked with an 'X'.

"Not any ordinary X mind you, but a RED one!" he reminded himself.

Will Schumanzer find his treasure? Only Martin knows!
