The flying ace took to the skies, ready for anything that gets in his way to finding the scroll of abstract, a scroll that leads to the caves of wonder. The caves of wonder is full of surprises like booby traps, temples and lots more but the only thing the Flying Ace would want was the black pearl. The black pearl is a pearl that lets you travel to other dimensions like dragons blood dimension. The flying ace was getting closer and closer as he sees what he did not want to see. His arch nemesis the Red Baron flying in search of the cave of wonders. The flying ace reached level with the Red Baron and started to fly viciously as the two flyers try to find the cave of wonders.

The flying ace started to run as the Red Baron followed close behind. At the end of the long tunnel, they see it: The Black Pearl lying on top of a steep stairway. The flying ace and the Red Baron race to get it. As the Red Baron managed to grab the black pearl the wall started to collapse and the sky was crumbling in, the flying ace snatched the black pearl off the Red Baron and ran out of the cave with the Red Baron following close behind. The flying ace flew off leaving the Red Baron behind. The flying ace had finally done it, the black pearl is finally his. And so as the hero continues his journey in the world he was destined to face the Red Baron once again.
