Aurora-tan's Dino Hunt!

Hi everyone! Aurora-tan is back! And this time I'm ready for an adventure of gigantic proportions!

I was looking through my PICO Guide: Star Collection. That's the little blue book that guides to all fun events in PICO! You can find it on the upper right corner of your screen. While I was looking, I saw one star I didn't have! It was labeled "Meet the Dinosaur!" When I clicked on it, I saw a nifty hint.

Tell me your secrets little snow-pico!

I immediately took off to the Stone Age to check it out. When I got there, I couldn't help but notice the giant footprints everywhere. I followed them, running as fast as I could.

Whose could they be?

Oh no! I was too late!

x_x

Ha ha, did I scare you? No, this wasn't the dinosaur the guide mentioned. Still, I was very surprised to see it too.
I looked around and noticed many shops. The most interesting one had a boogie-ing girl! I had to investigate.

Hm, a shop way out here?

Turns out, she sold actions! Actually only one action, Volcano Dance! This action proved to come in handy later. After I bought it, the shop keeper looked at me with challenge in her eyes! It was a dance off! I began to dance frantically!

Bring it on!

Suddenly, the ground rumbled! Everyone for miles ran close, excited to see dino action. But instead, we realized it was only the Volcano in the distance, erupting because of our dance.


We weren't discouraged however, we began to dance again. The rumblings got louder and more violent! We had at least ten people dancing with all their might!

Shake it!

Then it happened! He came! We all ran around in fear and excitement while our PICO Guides updated themselves. We all had new stars.

Yay! One step closer to completion~

The dinosaur was very ferocious! He was giant, with razor sharp claws and teeth. He seemed very grumpy.

Look at those giant feet!

As fast as he had come, he was gone! We all stood amazed, coughing in his dust.

Run out of the way! He's coming!

However, I am truly in awe of that great beast! It was such a marvelous experience, I urge you all to see him for yourselves. Remember, have at least ten friends dancing with you for him to show.

That's all for now PICO friends! Wait patiently till my next new discovery!

Aliens?!

Bootals!

Hey all! It has been quite some time since my last entry! Have you heard about the latest fashion trend? It's all about BOOTALS! Boots + Sandals = BOOTALS! Gotta love 'em!

New Area: Shibuya 106!

Hey Picos! A new area was released tonight, a Japanese department store called Shibuya 106. Even though Catmid, Aurora-tan and I were all really hoping it would be a summer beach area that is already in Ameba Pigg, I'm still pretty excited for the new clothes.

Take a look at those hoodies! Catmid showed me some on Pigg a while back and now we're getting them too. :)

Now the only sad part is that the capacity is only 30 Picos. I guess new outfits for me are a few days away... In the meantime, Dream Killer and I will just show off our amazing math and alphabet skills with the t-shirts just released a few days ago.

We're sad we can't go on a shopping spree yet!

Aurora-tan's Egyptian Adventure!

Hi there PICO-pals! It's me, Adventuring Aurora-tan! Now I'm not the one to pull on my safari boots whenever I see a zebra, but I heard about Catmid's awesome Egypt adventure so I had to have a taste of the fun!

The first thing I did was call my Travel Agent to book me a flight to an "exclusive" Egyptian Shine! Well, at first look, it didn't seem that exclusive.

So many tourists!

I approached the entrance and was immediately stopped by two ticket guys. I showed them a bit of leg though, and they let me through! Working out at the gym pays off!

Perhaps sexy?

I entered to what appeared to be a long, scary tunnel! It looked so cryptic with its ancient writing on the walls. I was immediately terrified!

This looks scary . . .

I ran as fast as I could down the hallway and came to two doors. I had minutes to decide which one to go through. I chose the right one!

Why am I so indecisive?!

Oh no! That door led me to a trick passage that brought me back to the beginning! I had to start all over again! I almost cried out of frustration!

No! Not again!

This time, I chose the left door. I found myself in a room . . . packed with tourists! It was so crowded I could barely move.

So crowded . . .

Ugh. I barely had enough strength to push over to the wall. I wanted to observe the hieroglyphics. They were indeed beautiful! However, it was so crowded and hot, I thought I might pass out!

They're so beautiful!

Suddenly, I heard gasps and whispers all around! Everyone moved closer to the sleeping Pharaoh's sarcophagus. The lid jiggled for a minute, then the casket opened. It was the king!

It moves! He lives!

To test my prowess, he showed me an ancient puzzle. Solving it was only too easy for a bookworm like me!

Fufufu!

Spoilers ahead!

Solved!

My prize was a chance to buy some treasures! I am a big owl lover so I purchased a lovely souvenir to bring home. Maybe my Travel Agent knew what he was doing after all!

Hooray, it's a beauty!

Happy adventuring everyone!

Catmid's Desert Adventure

So Catmid was just relaxing about the pool at her friend's abode in Marrakech when she got the call for ADVENTURE!!!!




One of her comrades sent her a secret map to find hidden treasure. Which happened to be in the land of the Pharaohs.



With the proper gear,  sturdy shoes, and a little snack Catmid was off!

Being dropped in the middle of the dessert is not always ideal. Fortunately Catmid ran into a local.

"Are you lost?" He stated with a smile and a twinge of his moustache.

"Maybe?" Catmid replied with a smile. She added, "You wouldn't happen to have seen an oasis nearby, have you?"

The man wiggled his moustache again and told her to continue right past a rock, passed two little rocks a couple more rocks, and then Catmid will see some builders. Right after that will be the oasis I seek.

Finding the man a little strange, she thanked him and went along her way.

THE OASIS

Just beyond that oasis will be the place that I will find adventure and the treasure I seek.

Catmid quietly hurried her way passed the builders and tried to avoid a sneaky looking scorpion that seemed to want to nibble at her shoe laces. It was somewhat treacherous, but as a professional this was nothing!

HUZZAH! She exclaimed and moved onward...

She then came upon an exotic lady that wanted to sell her shoes for some reason.

"Madame" Catmid pleaded, "I do not need shoes but would you mind telling me if there is a temple nearby?"

The woman stated that she couldn't confirm or deny that there was one, but if Catmid would buy some shoes, it might jogged her memory. Reluctantly Catmid bought some handmade goods from her and before she could hand the woman the gummies, she dissipated with a gust of wind.

OK! Was she a mirage? Catmid thought to herself. No matter, she knew she was on the right path when she smelled that familiar smell of ADVENTURE!

Catmid approched another strange, yet interesting person.
"Excuse me sir?... Sir? SIR?!?!?!?!"
He did not stir. Yet with closer inspection Catmid realized it was a statue.

HUZZAH!!! The TEMPLE OF ADVENTURE!!!

Upon arriving at the temple she was confronted by two guards.
With a huff they asked in unison, "ARE YOU ON THE GUEST LIST, DO YOU HAVE A TICKET?"
"Guest list???? What??? What is this place?" Catmid was confused. Where was she? Is this a temple or is it...

"Let me through! My... uh... friends are in there with my ticket!!!" Catmid tried to bat her eyes and look cute.

"We don't see your name here. You need to step aside!!!" Unphased by these ruffians Catmid commenced an epic battle. A battle so EPIC it can't be shown here.

In the end she was allowed into the inner sanctum to be with her friends.

All was well with the world oncemore.


Thanks for reading my adventure for today!
