After some talking, the gang decided to go to Pig Planet (one of their maps led them to it), the planet that Bird and Mushpuff and Plagiarize went to all that time ago, just before the bears attacked them and destroyed the energy shield around Pig City.

Luckily, Pig Planet was very close to Bear Stone Planet (in terms of the scale of the entire universe, at least), and it didn’t even take a day for the gang and Mound to arrive. Upon entering the atmosphere, they saw what remained of Pig City. Because of the incredibly harsh weather of Pig Planet, the city was in ruins. The sky was perpetually dark as night in the day and even darker at night because of the very thick layer of clouds. Some of the most intense thunderstorms and fastest wind occurred on this planet.

Mound’s ship was hit by lightning multiple times but luckily it had an energy shield and was quite fine. Everyone inside did get quite shaken up, though. The fast wind blew the ship around, making it nearly impossible to control.

“So where do y’all think this artifact is?” asked Klumpkrump amidst all this chaos.

“Probably anywhere but the city,” said Snorter, “considering most of this planet is unexplored. All pigs that ever left the protection of the energy shield were never seen again.”

“Well then let’s go to the unexplored places!” said Hoofa. “Mound, take us away!”

“I’m trying!!!” shouted Mound as the ship spiraled out of control and smacked into the side of a building, causing it (the building) to collapse on top of the ship and trap them in place.

“Gosh darn it!” said Klumpkrump as everyone screamed and panicked as the ship was crashing.
