Emerald goes to push around smaller boxes, starting with the one he used as a mouse trap. This one is quite a bit easier to do than the crate, and he ends up chasing it around the cargo hold. Emerald also is surprised at how much easier of a spell this is than the magic missile. It’s around the same amount of difficulty as the rock levitating spell.
 
Ruby is watching this the whole time with a bit of a detached interest, and after a few nudges of the small box Emerald attempts to move the one she is sitting on. He manages to make it slide a foot or too, bu then he collapses beside the box, breathing heavily.
 
“Is that it then?” Ruby asks, leaning over the side of the box to look at Emerald.
 
Emerald is about to respond when the kitchen door opens, revealing the cook.
 
“You, boy.” The cook says, looking at Ruby.
 
“I am not a boy!” Ruby says indignantly, puffing out her cheeks.
 
The cook looks her over and says, “Fooled me. Anyway, you offered to help me cook right? Get in here.”
 
Ruby who was looking quite angry before suddenly looks quite excited, and after giving Emerald a quick goodbye heads for the kitchen door.
 
Emerald is now alone, and after wiping the sweat from his brow sits up.
 
End of Chapter 21!
