Hi, my name's Walter.

My parents named me
after my great grandfather

on my dad's side,

but everybody calls me Champ.

These are my friends.

Stryker's been my best
friend since the second grade,

when he shared his lunch
with me, when I forgot mine.

Jenny lives two
doors down from me.

She's smart and funny,

and the only person that
can beat me at Mario Kart.

And Pip, she can be annoying,
but she's Jenny's best friend,

so she's always
just hanging around.

We are the Nomads.

We live in a quiet
neighborhood in Georgia,

next to the Chattahoochee river,

where basically
nothing ever happens.

My mom's family lived here way
before there were any houses.

Do you ever stop to think
who lived where you live,

like before you,

like before your house
was built or even your city?

The people that lived here first

were called Native Americans.

The Cherokees inhabited
the Appalachian mountains

from the Carolinas in
Tennessee to North Georgia,

where I live until now that is.

We had to move because my
dad's company is downsizing,

kind of like in 1828,

when gold was discovered
on Cherokee land

and they were forced to
move too, far, far away.

My great-great-great
grandmother was Cherokee,

but since she married
someone that wasn't,

she ended up staying here,

but most of her family
and friends moved away.

History always
felt like something

that happened so long
ago to people I didn't know,

so it didn't really have
anything to do with me.

But this summer,

what happened almost 200
years ago became very real,

and I learned that the past
is linked with the present,

and that history is more
important than I thought.

Let's go back to the beginning.

- You'll never take me alive.

- I wasn't planning on it.

- I'm out.

Die you alien scum.

- Never.

Oh man.

Is everything okay boys?

- Yes Ma'am, everything's fine.

All right, dinner's
almost ready.

Oh, and Champ,
you're welcome to stay.

- Thanks, but I gotta go home.

- Yeah, don't worry
about it. I got it.

- You sure?

- Yeah, it's cool.

- Daisy.

I'm gonna miss you Daisy.

Bye Daisy.

See ya.

This is so cool.

- This baby does zero to
60 in under three seconds,

in ludicrous mode.

- Whoa.

- Not that Miss
Michelle will let me.

Stryker tells me that
your family's moving soon.

- Yeah, it's so unfair.

- You know, you're welcome
at our house anytime.

- Thanks.

- Champ, you're supposed
to have your room packed up.

- I've been busy.

- We're all busy.

- I really need you to pitch in

and do your part
around here, okay pal.

- I will.

You're right, you will.

Because today it's no
friends, no cell phone,

no video games
until you're packed.

- That's not fair.

- Trust me, life's not fair.

- I can't survive a whole
day without my phone.

- Just get your stuff
packed and you'll get it back.

- I could stay at Stryker's.

- That's not happening.

- I know it's hard
to understand,

but I've been looking for a
job ever since I got laid off.

And then someone shows up
here wanting to buy the house,

offering us way more
than what it's worth,

I mean, that's an offer
that your mom and I,

we just can't turn that down.

- My friends or a
good offer, hmm?

- Champ, your friends
will always be your friends

and you will make new ones.

- Dad you've always
wanted to start a business,

why don't you do that now?

Then we don't have
to take that stupid offer.

- As great as that sounds,
that takes investment capital.

So unless you got a secret
stash of cash laying around

that I don't know about then.

- What about the clubhouse?

- We'll build a new one.

- It's not gonna be the same.

- And he doesn't wanna
leave his girlfriend.

- She's not my girlfriend.

She's just a friend.

- She's a girl
and she's a friend.

- Yeah, well you don't
wanna leave Corey.

- Well, on that
note, I have a thing.

- When you get done,

why don't you go get your
stuff out of the clubhouse,

okay sweetie.

- Ew, grossed my eyes.

- Champ, get out.

- You get out, this
is my clubhouse.

- Not for long from what I hear.

- Just leave him alone, come on.

Was just joking.

- Now.

- All right, all right.

You know, you're not
the only one losing friends.

Practicing for your girlfriend?

- Bravo Charlie,
Bravo Charlie, come in.

This is Crying Wolf.

The enemies are closing in.

Bravo Charlie do you
copy, send the bird.

Bravo Charlie, I
need extraction now.

You need to come over now.

Meet me at the clubhouse
and go the back way.

- Dude, you had a skeleton in
your backyard this whole time?

Ha, dude, it touched me.

- Check this out.

- You shouldn't take that.

- He won't mind.

Sidanelv.

- Nah, you are not
making me an accomplice.

- An accomplice to what?

He was already dead.

- Dude. what are you doing?

- It's a gold nugget.

Check this out.

- What is it?

- I don't know, maybe a
treasure map to more gold.

- Really?

- Here, come on.

- Wait, what about him?

- Right.

I promise to take
care of your stuff.

Rest in peace, Amen.

Yeah.

Sure, sure, that works.

- Ready?

- I don't know if we should.

- Sorry, didn't
mean to scare you.

- Yeah, you did.

- What you doing?

- None your as in
none your business.

- Yeah, I got it.

- Well the question is

what are you doing in
the Nomad clubhouse?

You're not Nomads.

- Two people don't make a club.

- Oh, Jackson went
to summer camp

and Tripp he got grounded

for throwing water
balloons at his little sister.

- What's so top secret?

- Only the biggest thing
this clubhouse has ever done.

- Wait, you can't tell
secret club business

with non-members.

- We'll just swear them in.

- Dude, what?

No way.

- Yeah, but we could
use the extra help

and they'll only be
temporary members.

- Whatever.

Fine.

- My mom says I can't swear.

- Then you'll promise.

Stryker.

- I, state your name.

- Katie.

- Jenny.

- Do solemnly swear,

I mean promise,

that you will never reveal
the secrets of the Nomad club

and will not tell a single soul

what I'm about to tell you,

or Katie's hamster Fluffball
will meet Mr. Whiskers.

Do you promise?

- We promise.

- Whatever.

- All right, you're now temporary
members of the Nomad club.

- Cool, so do we get nicknames?

- Oh, come on.

- Depends.

When we've told
you what we've found,

you're gonna help
us figure it out?

- Okay.

- By the power vested in
me, the leader of the Nomads,

I dub thee

Pip.

Here, here Pip.

I'll have to think about yours.

- Technically
Jenny is a nickname.

- Here, here, Jenny?

- So like I was saying before

- We found a skeleton.

- No way.

- Wait, but that's not all.

We got this compass
and this gold nugget

and a journal that
could lead to more gold.

Yeah, right?

- Seriously.

- Oh, you're serious.

Look, it's super old.

It's dated 1800s
and just smell it.

It smells old.

- Yeah, it's an old
prospector's journal.

- What, like a diary?

- No, not a diary.

It's a journal.

- A diary, a journal same thing.

- No, he's not writing
about his feelings,

he's writing about gold.

- Wait, how am I
supposed to read this?

- What's the matter?

Oh, cursive.

Give me a minute.

I'll read it.

- No, no, I got it.

Prospecting by Joshua Ryder.

April 18th, 1828.

I arrived today in Dahlonega.

I went into town and
registered for the land auction.

- These are the
claims here to get.

- You need to be
here Friday morning.

If you are not here when
your number is called,

you will go to the
end of the line.

- Much obliged.

- Hey Big Nik.

Nobody cheats me.

- What's fair is fair.

- Well it's fair,
when I say it's fair.

- Enough.

There'll be no
fighting in my town.

Crump go home.

- Nobody cheats me.

- Go on, get.

- You get

- You helping me,
that meant nothing.

Tomorrow Big Nik is for himself.

- You're welcome.

- Son, I'm not sure if
you're brave or stupid.

What's your name son?

- Joshua Ryder sir.

You are?

- Colonel Nathaniel Jeffreys,

retired of course,

but everyone around here
still calls me the Colonel.

- You wouldn't happen to know

where I could find some
supplies, would you?

- I just happened to be the
proprietor of the general store.

- Jedidiah's got some issues.

- Big Nik doesn't
sound too great either.

That guy Joshua saved his life

and he didn't even say, thanks.

- Hello, this is not a
reality show recap.

- Sorry, go on.

- Well here, let me read it.

I hired a Cherokee
guide to take me out

and scout the claims.

He couldn't speak much English,

but when he saw my
compass, he pointed at it

and said, "Sidanela"

- Cherokee Sidanela,
it means family.

- This says it too.

- Then he brought
me to a beautiful spot

on the Etowah river and said,
this was the property for me.

- So does he find
the gold or not?

- Hold your horses.

20th of May,

1828.

I'm as lost as this compass,

it just keeps
spinning in circles.

- Biggest thing this
club has ever done, huh?

- Wait, let me see that.

Mr. Benjamin Ryder in the
County of Milton state of Georgia.

My dearest Uncle Ben,
our claim has proven worthy,

as I have finally discovered
the secret of the compass.

I plan to bring a
portion of my findings,

but fear I may be followed,

sincerely, Joshua.

- He found it.

- See.

And where is it?

Does it say?

- Ah no, it doesn't.

Look right here.

A compass rose on the wall
will lead you to find your way.

The wall.

What wall?

- Yeah remember
that fifth grade field trip

to the gold mine in Dahlonega.

- Yeah, and some
kid had a panic attack.

- Well so, sue me.

I don't like closed
spaces, okay.

- Yeah, that one.

And the tour guide
kept talking about

these mysterious
symbols on the wall.

- I remember that too.

- Dahlonega, it's
at least 10 miles

from the national forest.

- My mom would have
a cow if we went that far.

- I mean, we have to try.

- Actually, we kind of don't.

- But if we find the gold,
I won't have to move.

- That's a pretty big if.

- I'm in, if you're in, I'm
in, you can ride with me.

- Okay, so meet back
here in the morning.

Nomads this is it.

This could change
the rest of our lives.

- Yeah and get us grounded.

Just saying,

- All right, all we have to
do is take the yellow trail

all the way to
Dahlonega and stay close,

so no one gets lost.

- But that goes through
Shumate's Creek

and they don't like
people cutting through.

- True, but it's a shortcut.

It'll be fine, I know people.

- Whatever you say.

- Champ Brown.

- Hey Frankie,

- What are you doing here?

- Just out for a ride.

- Do you really think
you should be here?

- Not so tough now are ya?

- Hey, let him go.

- Cut it out Corey.

Zoe.

- Oh, you gonna tell your mommy?

- Jerk.

- Hey, it's not worth it.

- Champ, what
are you doing here?

- Can't tell you,
but it's important.

- Whoa, stop with the lies, bro.

- I won't tell mom and dad,
you two were in the clubhouse,

if you don't tell
them that I was here.

- And you'll go home right now?

- Fine.

- Let him go.

I mean it, home now.

- We heading home?

- Nope, let's go.

- So he knew people huh?

Follow me on through
the gold mine here,.

Guys, my friends,
you are in now.

200 feet underground in
this consolidated gold mine.

Guys in this gold mine,

they were finding
gold the size of flower,

gold inside of quartz.

How to extract that
gold out the quartz

they were using dynamite.

Drilling up holes
with the dynamite.

- That way.

- Guys.

Look here.

Come on.

- Hey, is it just me,

or is this tunnel
getting smaller?

- No, that's your brain.

- Wait, here's one.

- Here too.

- Over here.

- You see that?

- See what?

- Where'd he go?

- If you're not here when
your number is called,

you will go to the
end of the line.

- US Government land
auctions this Friday.

What the what?

- I got in line at the US
claims and surveys office,

when suddenly a fight
broke out between two men.

- Well it's fair,
when I say it's fair.

- I saw Joshua Ryder.

- What?

- I went back to 1828
and saw Joshua Ryder.

- Come on.

- Seriously.

- Seriously.

- I think you bumped
your head, it's dark in there.

- No it's not, it's light.

- Maybe you just
want it so badly.

- Do you not see the light
at the end of the tunnel?

- You mean metaphorically,

you can see the light at
the end of the tunnel, right?

- No, that's not what I mean.

- Holy Christmas.

Where did it go?

It was just right there.

- Stryker, put your hand
back on Champ's shoulder.

- I see it.

- I see too.

Pip, come here.

- Freaky.

- Oh, okay, okay.

Can you stop touching me.

- What did you see out there?

- Exactly what it
says in the journal,

Joshua standing in line.

- What else did you see?

- Big Nik and Jedidiah arguing.

I wonder.

- It worked.

Whatever page to journal
is on is what time it is here.

- Let's go check it out.

- That must be the
Colonel with Joshua.

- You thirsty boy.

- Yes, sir.

- Son, you don't wanna
be drinking any of that,

that's mountain moonshine,

you'll be sleeping
it off for a week.

- Thank you, sir.

Can I get some water.

- Boy, get up and fetch
the man some water.

- Come on.

- I'm not going out there.

- You all think you
gonna be rich don't you?

Yeah.

Well I say you gon be broke

and headed home to
your mama within a month.

Ain't that right.

What you looking at?

- What's with that guy?

- He's got the gold fever,

and not just any kind of
gold either, Cherokee gold.

- What's so special
about Cherokee gold?

- It runs along the
vein of magnetite.

The magnetite pulls
all the impurities,

leaving the gold
the purest there is,

but only the Cherokee
know how to find it.

Legend has it,

they have a special
instrument that points to gold.

- I'd be happy with good
old run-of-the-mill gold.

- What's your story, son?

What brings you here?

- My uncle Ben raised me
after my parents passed.

So he gave me a hundred dollars

and a compass
that was my parents.

It was a way for me
to find my way home,

and he told me to go
make something of yourself,

so I'm doing it for him.

For my parents.

- Watch it boy.

- You alright kid.

- Yeah.

- Hey kid.

- Come on, we gotta go.

- Hey, you need to
mind your own business.

Hey, I'm talking to you.

- I was taught to be quick
to listen and slow to speak.

- Jedidiah, ain't about
time you went home.

We all got a big day tomorrow.

- You think you safe with
this old man here, don't you?

But you ain't.

- I'm sorry, maybe you and
me got off on the wrong foot.

Can I buy you and
your friends to drink?

Can I have a round of
drinks for my friends please?

- Yeah, let's get
some drinks, come on.

He's buying.

Yeah, I gonna give you a
friendly little word of advice,

cause I won't see
nothing happen to you boy.

Go home.

- That's two words.

- Yeah, I seen you and you guide

walking around the
plot I got my eye on.

- I walked all the plots.

- You stay outta my way boy.

- All right, Jed.

Thank the boy for the drink.

- I'm just trying to keep
that boy outta trouble,

that's all.

That's all I'm
doing, that's all.

- Gentlemen, have
a good evening.

- Oh, we will.

You bet your bottom dollar.

Oh, you want some
of that right there,

there you go.

Cheers.

- That was close.

- 1828 smells different.

- No showers.

- I think he saw my compass.

- Does it matter?

- Oh, what if it changes
things, you know in the future?

- What if he's on to us?

- Uh oh this wasn't here before.

- See.

When the boy fell,

he revealed he had
a Sidanela compass

that looked just like mine.

- Does the rest of
it sound the same?

- Yeah, I think so.

- This time.

- Come on, guys,
loosen up a little.

Where are we going next Champ?

- Claims day.

- Should we try
to blend in a little

in case someone sees us?

- Yeah.

- Ladies and gentlemen
let's get started.

Number one.

Number two.

Number three.

Good luck.

Number 15,

15.

Where's that drunkard.

Number 16.

Good luck.

Number 53.

- Did we bring any water?

- Where's the bathroom?

Seriously?

- Number 54.

- It's number 31.

- This is the map.

Claims with Xs are
no longer available,

what number do you want.

- Is number 31 available?

- Son, I wouldn't recommend
you getting that lot.

- But it is available?

- Gonna be $10.

Good luck to you.

- My dearest Uncle Ben,

I acquired our claim today.

I will break camp and head
to our new land at Dawn.

- You have a good day today kid?

- Not particularly eventful.

- I think the polite thing to
do is ask me how my day was.

Because imagine my surprise,

when I woke up
face down in the dirt,

come to realize I
missed the auction.

- Must have been a rough night.

- I ain't finishing yet.

See, I have me a little
talk with that survey man,

cause he's supposed to hold
a special little claim for me,

and lo and behold it was gone.

- That's too bad.

- Oh no, no, no,

not really.

Cause right before I shot him,
he told me who he sold it to.

And I thought you and
me supposed to be friends.

- What's so special
about that claim?

- There's Cherokee
gold on that land, I seen it.

Years ago I seen it, every day.

I waited till they was
gone and I searched for it,

but I couldn't find it.

Then the Colonel come here,

and they got rid
of them Cherokees

and I knew it was my chance.

- The Colonel.

- Yeah, the man
wants what he wants,

you can't talk him out of it,

and you come along
and you took it from me.

- I can't take from
you what's not yours.

- You gonna gimme
that claim boy.

- I can't do it.

- Oh I think you can.

- We gotta do something.

- We can't go in there.

- Let's go get Big Nik.

- I mailed it.

- You what?

- I sent it to the post this
morning to the investor.

- You bluffing.

- Big Nik,

- Joshua needs you.

- Now.

- If you shoot me,

they will send five or six
more men in my place.

- They or he, you owe me boy.

Ah

- We're even, and kid
don't ever play poker.

- Been looking for him,

Seems he tried shooting
the surveyor man in the head.

Fortunately he missed.

- This ain't over kid, this
ain't over I'm telling you,

I'm gonna get you,
I'm gonna get you.

- So kid, you
still got that claim.

- Yeah, it's in a safe space.

- Good, good.

- Don't want that falling
into the wrong hands.

- Listen kid, you're
in over your head.

If you know what's good
for you, you'll just go home.

- Why does everyone
keep saying that?

- Because there's things
you just don't know about.

Just go home.

- This is my home, Nik.

- What?

- This is where I was born.

I'm Cherokee and I'm here
to get what's rightfully mine.

- Tell no one what
you just told me.

And if you find that gold,
you just get outta town,

you here.

- Well, according to this,

he's been working on his
claim for about four months now,

and today's the day
he finds the gold.

And if we're at the right time,

then is when he gets really
frustrated with the compass

and he throws it.

He goes to look for it,

and then he finds his secret
entrance to the gold cave.

Well, all we have
to do now is watch

and see where the
gold cave is and...

You're supposed to be looking
for your compass right now.

- How do you know
so much about me?

- You're ruining everything.

- Where did you get that?

- It's yours?

- What?

- We're from the future.

- Big Nik put you up for this?

- What no.

- You working for Jedidiah
trying to get my claim?

- No, no, I'm not.

No, I can prove it.

- Okay, where did you get that?

- Well, you were gonna
look for your compass, right?

- Let me see that.

- We can't show you.

It could change
things we can't undo.

But if you go look
for your compass,

you may find
more than just that.

- All right. You're
coming with me,

all of you.

Let's go.

Right now.

Fine.

- Hey, over here.

- This must be it.

- All right, Stryker can
you hand me the lantern

and the bag.

Stay here.

I'm okay.

We found it.

- We can't take them,

it could change things.

- Exactly.

- We can't take
the gold, not now.

You need to do with it
what you would've done

if you would've never met us.

Party pooper.

- We'll come back in the future,

I mean the present.

- Whatever.

- Stryker's right.

We can't take it.

- So, what's it
like in the future?

- We can't tell you that.

- He's watched too
many time travel movies.

- You wouldn't believe
us if we told you,

but you don't have
to walk to get places,

and you can talk to anyone,
anywhere, whenever you want.

- That doesn't make any sense.

- It's all good,

except our family's
having to sell our land

because of money problems.

- Our family.

- Champ okay, we gotta go.

- Oh, all right.

Well Champ it was
interesting meeting you.

- You too, Joshua.

Oh, and watch
out for the Colonel.

- Hey, seriously.

We can't tell him
about the future.

- Fine.

- Don't worry,

he's not telling him
anything I don't already know.

- See, he already knew.

- Bye ladies.

- Bye.

- Colonel.

- Sit down.

- There's something
going on at Joshua's claim.

- Is that so?

You think he's found
what we're looking for?

- Well, if anybody can
it be Ben's nephew.

- You know what to do.

- Dear Champ,

after you left,

I emptied out the cave.

- Goodbye 1828,
it's nice knowing ya.

- Champ, hurry up so we can go.

- Yep.

- You sure I can't keep this,

it's kind of grown on me.

- We can't take anything.

- Champ.

- What's going on?

- He took the gold.

- And you worried about
me taking pantaloons.

- I told you we
couldn't take anything.

- I know, you're right.

We can take it back.

- Oh man, I'm tired.

- I think it'll be faster
if you went alone.

- So much for Nomads
sticking together.

- Well, look at
what we got here.

- Hey, that's mine.

- Boy, who'd you
steal this from?

I didn't steal
it, it's Joshua's.

- Is that so, let's go pay
him a visit then, shall we?

- What's going on gentlemen?

- Seems we found
this boy with this.

- And?

- Says he got it from you.

We take theft
around here seriously.

- It's a hanging offense.

- He didn't steal it.

I asked him to take it
to town to get it weighed.

- Sorry I

- You found your claim, did you?

- Nah, dumb luck, tripped
over while I was hunting.

- Is that so.

- You gentlemen
need anything else?

- Let's leave the
man to his business.

Grab the boy and let's go.

- Don't worry about it,

I'll make sure he
gets to his family.

- Very well then.

You might wanna
get that compass fixed,

North is that way.

- It's a family heirloom.

- Broken compass,
family heirloom.

- Colonel.

- Yes.

- My gold.

- Maybe that
compass ain't broken.

You know, they say if
you was to hold a magnet

to the compass, the
needle would move,

but you gotta get pretty close.

Why don't you walk with me.

- We really gotta go.

- You holding out on me?

Well, Well I'll be...

Grab 'em.

- Stop it.

- Prospector's compass.

And here I thought
it's just a legend.

This day just keeps
getting better and better.

Take them to my tent.

- Shouldn't he be here by now?

- Maybe he's taking his time.

- Stop it.

He did what he
did for all of us,

so he wouldn't have to move.

- You're right.

We should go look for him.

- You think.

- Colonel, just let the boy go.

Look. I promise you'll never
see him again and he'll leave.

- You really think I'm
gonna let some scrawny kid

get in my way.

Now that I have the compass,

I'm gonna be the richest man,

East and West
of the Mississippi.

Soon as Festus comes
back here with the tools,

we gonna take a little
stroll on your claim.

Don't run off now.

- Champ, we gotta
get outta here.

Can you get your
hands on untied?

Mine are stuck.

Okay, get your feet down,

go back to back and
drag all the way up, ready?

- Okay.
- Go.

- Eh.

- See, I told you, you
was in over your head.

See, you did get me
in a little bit of trouble,

you still being alive and all.

You made me look
bad in front of my boys,

not mentioned,
got shot in the foot.

- You should talk
to Big Nik about that.

- Oh you not so slow to
speak today now, are you?

- You want something?

I got my own problems.

- See thing is I'm sober now.

I got my family back.

My wife forgive me
for everything I'd done,

so I reckon I'm
here to forgive you.

- I'm happy for you.

Glad I could help.

Don't suppose you
would return the favor?

- You want me to
shoot you in the foot?

- I was thinking more along
the lines of letting us go.

- Well, there is
something I owe you first,

something you need to know.

Since you step foot in camp,
Colonel knew who you was.

- What do you mean?

- You looked just like your Pa.

I mean, he's a good man, fair.

- You knew my Pa?

- Yeah and your Ma too.

I mean they's good
people didn't bother nobody.

Your Ma she had a
knack for finding gold

and Colonel didn't like it,

made him look like a fool.

- Why you telling this?

- Cause I was there that night.

Colonel said, we was just
going to go look for that gold,

and he shot 'em.

After that I went
and got me a drink

and I never stopped drinking.

- Hey Champ, I want
you to get to that tunnel,

I want you to get there
fast, okay, don't look back.

- I'm not leaving
you here with him.

- Hey, don't worry
kid, I'm leaving.

- Go.

- What are you guys doing here?

- We're Nomads,
we stick together.

- We came to rescue you.

- Jed.

- Take care kid.

- Thank you.

- Where's the compass?

- Here.

- Come on, we gotta go.

- He's right, you gotta go.

- Come with us.

- I can't.

- Be careful.

- I will.

- Dude.

- Dude.

Did I do it right?

- Champ's lucky to
have you as a friend.

Take care of him.

- I'll miss you.

- We'll always be connected,

not even time can change that.

Sidanela.

- Sidanela.

- Now go.

Go.

I will write you.

- Hey old man, over here.

- Hey, what are you doing?

- He's saving Joshua.

Come on.

- Festus, get my gun.

- Oh, thank goodness.

Why haven't you been
answering your phone?

You know you're not supposed
to be out riding this late.

- Sorry, it died.

- Glad you're all right pal.

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

- So what were you doing

on the other side
of Shumate's Creek?

- Is that what Zoe told you?

- Surprisingly, your
sister didn't give you up.

It was Corey who had no
trouble spilling the beans.

- Dim wad.

- Uh uh, no name
calling, please.

Even though I
agree, he can be rude,

inconsiderate, childish.

- You forgot moronic,
dimwitted and a jerk,

we broke up.

- Oh thank goodness.

- At least one good
thing happened today.

- Glad you're
all right, fuzzball.

- All right, Champ.

I'd appreciate an honest answer
about where you were today.

- You wouldn't
believe me if I told you.

- Try me.

- Okay.

I found a skeleton
in the backyard.

- A skeleton?

- Yeah, and his
name is Joshua Ryder.

- Ryder.

- He had this special compass

and on the back
it said Sidanela.

- I haven't heard
that for long time.

It's Cherokee for family.

My grandmother
was half Cherokee.

- So who's Joshua?

- And it wasn't unusual

to bury family on your
own property back then.

- Did she tell you
about the gold?

- Yeah, that's how they
survived the depression.

It's long gone by now.

So where's the skeleton?

- I left him right where I
found him, under the big tree.

I didn't touch it.

- All right, well we need
to get rid of the skeleton

before the new owners see it.

- We can't just
get rid of Joshua.

Can we take him
to the new house?

- That's gross.

Mom, we are not
moving a dead guy.

- No we're not, we're gonna
leave him right where he is,

We'll just cover him
up with some dirt.

He probably was exposed
when the big tree fell.

I don't know.

I'll ask your father
in the morning.

- Is that really how you're
gonna wake him up?

- No, I think I'll fix him
some breakfast first.

All right. Kiddos,

don't stay up too late, okay.

Goodnight.

Love you.

- Goodnight mom, love you.

- Goodnight.

- So you really think
there's more gold?

- I know there is.

- Why didn't you tell mom?

- She wouldn't believe me.

I hardly believe it
myself and I was there.

- Well, I'll believe
you just tell me.

- Well, we went
to this gold mine

and I thought maybe we
could find the gold there.

- But you didn't?

- We kind of did.

We had the compass
and a journal,

and I was just walking
down this tunnel,

and I got to the
end and it was 1828.

- No way.

- Yeah, I know, it's crazy.

And I met Joshua and
then I saw him find the gold.

- The dead guy?

- Yeah.

And there were these guys
chasing us and we got away,

and it was the
last I saw of him.

You don't believe me, do you?

- No, I do.

I mean, even you
couldn't make that up.

- See I told you,
Jenny likes you,

you think she'd follow
just anyone back to 1828.

So where's the gold now?

- I know it's
close, I can feel it.

- Oh, get some sleep,

you'll need it in the
morning to help dad.

- Yeah.

All right.

- You know that this is
probably against the law, right?

- I didn't put him there.

- Doesn't matter how.

It's just the fact
that I'm out here

digging a grave with my
son, it just doesn't seem right.

- You're the one
that's always saying

you wanna spend
more time together.

- All right, hopefully
this is deep enough.

- Hey dad,

- What?

- Show some respect.

You can't just shove him in.

- Look, I mean no disrespect,

but I'm not picking up
an old skeleton Champ.

- Here, just put
him on this blanket

and we'll lower him down.

- Sounds like you've
done this before.

- I watch TV.

- Zoe Sweetie, will you
please keep an eye out?

I don't wanna have to explain

what we're doing
here to the new owners.

- Who knew our
family was so cool.

- This is not cool.

All right.

I mean, we're cool,

but this, this is not cool.

- Okay, okay.

- Family time, am I right?

- That's what I said.

Okay, all right, okay.

Okay.

- Wait,

could I get a minute?

Wanna say goodbye.

- Sure pal.

- You should have this.

You were right.

As long as you have
family, you'll be okay.

Bye, Joshua, rest in peace.

All right.

- Tim, they're pulling in.

- All right, you go meet 'em,

I'll be there in a minute.

- You guys go get your
the boxes from your rooms

and I'll let 'em in.

Come on let's go.

- You got everything.

- I forgot to put
this in the grave.

- Well, I guarantee you
dad's not digging him up again,

so just keep it.

- He told me he'd write me.

- Champ, I know it was hard
buring that guy this morning

and those things you
said, that was really nice,

but it's time,

gotta let him go.

- Yeah.

- That's everything.

- Yeah.

- It's okay, bud.

- I'm gonna miss this place.

- I know.

- I gotta look.

- It's here,

look.

- Let me see that.

- There.

- I can't lead them back home.

Sidanela's more
important than the gold.

- What did you do?

- What did I do?

What do you mean?

I saved your life,
that's what I did.

I think we're even now.

- Colonel, Colonel,
did you get him?

- Quickly, let's go.

- We can't just leave him here.

- Oh, you think
they're gonna believe

that it was self defense do you?

Go.

- There's something
I gotta do first.

- Dear Champ,

if you're reading this,
you made it home safely.

I hope to do the same,

since the Colonel came
to an untimely death

while he was chasing me.

I emptied out the cave

and gave uncle Ben
enough to last a lifetime.

I'm leaving you the
rest in a safe place.

Below where the eye can see

the mist protects
its treasure, Joshua.

- Go, now.

- Wait,

that's not Joshua in our
backyard, it's the Colonel.

You know what that means?

- We buried the Colonel.

- Yeah, but the
Gold's still out there

and it's on our property.

We can't let them sell it.

- They're in there
signing the papers.

- Dad, dad.

- Yeah, Champ I'm talking.

- Dad, we need to talk,

can you come outside?

- No.

We can talk as soon
as we're done here.

- Dad, it's an emergency.

- I'm sorry, can you
excuse me for just a minute?

- Sorry, there's never a dull
moment with teenagers around.

- Hey, what, what is it now?

- I think there's
gold in our property.

- Champ that's why the buyers
are willing to pay so much.

Dad they know.

- We are not doing this now.

- But if we don't do it
now, then it's be too late.

- And by the way,
it's not an emergency,

unless one of you is
bleeding, you got that?

- Whatever.

- Hey, you tried your best.

Who needs some
stupid gold anyway, right?

- Hey, I didn't think you

- And that's your
problem right there.

- Is everyone in trouble?

- We all wanted to go,

we're Nomads we stick
together, remember?

- I remember.

- Well, I thought
I'd better come by

and say goodbye
before you guys left.

And besides I'm grounded,

so I won't be seeing the
light of day for a while.

- Sure.

Yeah.

- So, what's the plan?

Your father says, you
think we're sitting on gold.

- Are you serious?

You didn't sell it?

- Not yet.

I told them that there
was a family emergency

and I'd give them a call in
the morning to set up a time.

- Okay, so we got
24 hours to find it.

- Champ, tell us exactly
what makes you think

there could be gold,

the truth and only the truth.

- Okay Champ,

tell us where you
think it might be

and where should we look?

- This is the journal I found

with who I thought
was Joshua Ryder,

but now I don't think it was.

- Then who did we just bury?

Stryker son,

I'm gonna need you to
forget that you heard that.

Can you do that?

- This really bad guy
who was after Joshua

and he was trying
to take the gold.

- Did Joshua?

- What have you been watching?

- No Big Nik shot him.

- Don't ask who Big Nik is.

- Okay.

So Joshua had the gold,
but that was a long time ago.

- Yeah, Stryker,
Jenny, Pip and me

went back to the gold mine,

and somehow we got to
1828 and I met Joshua.

Look right here,

he wrote to me and
said, he'd leave it for me.

- All right, you are
definitely grounded after this.

We haven't specifically
told you not to go to 1828,

but I think it's inferred.

- Carol sweetie,

can we please focus
on the situation at hand?

I mean, there's
gonna be plenty of time

to ground Champ for that

and a whole host
of other things later.

- Go ahead.

- Dear champ, blah, blah, blah.

I'm leaving you the
rest in a safe place,

below where the eye can see,

the mist protects its treasure.

- Tim, what do you think?

- Champ, son,

are you sure that this isn't
some just elaborate story

that you're making up?

- Yeah, promise.

- All right, below
where the eye can see.

You guys, I think that
means that he buried it,

but he doesn't leave
us a clue as to where.

- If the Colonel was in our
backyard with the compass

and Joshua's journal,

doesn't that mean it'd be
somewhere around there, right?

- And this is the same land
mom's family's had for years.

- We are not gonna try
to dig up this whole yard.

- Oh, we have an metal detector.

- So do we.

- Great, I'll tell you what
Stryker go get yours,

we'll need both,
but don't tell anyone.

- You want me to lie?

- No, no, no, no.

Of course not, just
if they don't ask.

- Got it.

- Where's our metal detector?

It's packed away
with the garage stuff.

- I don't know the
movers packed everything.

I don't know.

- Let's find it.

- Well lets go.
- Come on.

- Hey guys, who told you?

Stryker?

- I had to tell them,
they're Nomads.

Plus we need more help.

- Yeah.

- It's true we
needed a lot of help.

- Okay, you guys
we've gotta spread out,

so that we don't cover
the same area twice.

- Okay, we've got four
zones North, South,

East and West.

- That ways North.

- Are you sure?

- Yes, we've lived
here long enough,

I'm pretty sure
which way North is.

- You know what we need?

We need the compass.

- Where is it?

- This is classified
information,

meaning that you
don't tell anyone.

- We solemnly swear
on the Nomads name

to never disclose what
we're about to hear.

So help us

- No, that's fine Stryker,
that's fine thank you.

- The skeleton that
we thought was Joshua,

we buried him this
morning over there,

with the compass in with him,

right before we covered it up.

So.

- No, no, definitely not.

This has already
gone way too far.

Listen, it is one thing
to bury an old skeleton,

but it is something
completely wrong to dig one up.

- You don't understand
the compass is special,

it doesn't point
North, it points to gold.

Sorry, Colonel, but
I'll be needing this.

- Now what?

- Well, I guess I'll cover
up the Colonel again.

Anyone need anything
while I'm in here?

Last call.

- This is so exciting.

- You know, I wouldn't sell
this place if we didn't have to,

right?

- It's fine, really.

- I just don't want you
to get your hopes up.

- I know.

It's just so nice

seeing Champ and
Zoe getting along finally.

- Yeah, it's kinda cool.

- Nothing.

- Guys, we should back up.

I mean it can't work if
we're all standing so close.

- Maybe it's too
old and it's broken.

- It's just not close
enough to the gold.

- Here, let me try.

- Well, there's still two
places we haven't looked.

- Where?

- Under the house
and the clubhouse.

- Your house has a basement,
so it's already been dug up,

if it was ever there, it's gone.

Sorry.

- Well then it's under the
clubhouse or it's just not here.

- It's not close enough.

- We need to tear it down.

- We can't tear
down the clubhouse.

- It's the only way.

- I'm gonna go get mom and dad.

- You guys, we
can't tear it down.

Whether they let you
use it or they have a kid.

- So you think it
might be under there?

- I'm not tearing it down
for all the gold in the world.

- Champ, I'm really
glad to hear you

feel so strongly about it,

but I don't think
we're gonna have to.

- We won't?

- Let's try tearing up the
floorboards first, come on.

- Okay, okay, guys come on.

Back up.

- This has to be it.

Nothing yet.

Wait, it's spinning.

This is the same piece
I found on the skeleton.

- Sorry you said hide it.

- And you forgot?

- I was caught up in the moment.

- It's okay Stryker.

- So there's no gold.

- I think we all got caught
up in what they call gold fever.

- Your mom's right?

If there'd been any gold,

it would've probably
been found by now.

Sorry buddy.

- You've caused enough trouble.

- Things don't always
turn out how we'd like.

- I know it's just,
I'm leaving and

- You said you'd forget us?

- No, that's not what I meant.

I meant that you'll
find a new friend,

a friend that you'll
see every day at school

and it just won't be me.

- I won't forget you.

- Me either.

- Let's go find that compass,

that's memory we can hold on to.

- Here it is.

That's it, the mist
protects its treasure.

Come on.

We found it.

- What?

Where?

- See the mist?

Look on the island
it's there, I know it.

- Champ buddy,

it's getting late,
everybody's getting hungry.

- No, I just ordered
pizza, we're good.

They should be here anytime.

- I promise if this
isn't it I'll give up.

- Let's go get the boat.

- Let's get it.

- Hey Champ,
compasses work better

if you hold 'em like this.

- Oh.

It's moving, it's, it's moving.

This way.

Yes, this way.

This has to be it,
where's the shovel.

I got it.

No matter what happens.

- Dig, talk later.

- Might be a rock.

- Or not.

- There might not
be anything in there.

- There might be.

- We did it.

Joshua left it for
us, for all of us.

- Look at that.

- I can't believe it.

- I guess we're
staying after all.

- Dad, you know how
much I wanna stay,

but I think you should
use this as capital

in your new business,
it's your dream.

- Son, family, that's
what's important.

I mean, that's what
this land is all about.

It's been in your mom's family

and now one day it'll be passed
down to you and your sister.

- Well, the way gold
prices are these days,

I think we'll be
able to do both.

- Even better.

Couldn't have
done it without you.

So I make the motion

of granting Jenny and Pip
permanent membership.

- Okay, I guess I'd be okay
with having them around.

- Now that I'm not moving,

I guess I'll be back
at school in the Fall.

- I guess so.

- So I was thinking...

- Told you.

- So we were there
when we found the gold,

and he would have
just given it to us but

- We couldn't change
the past by taking the gold

because that would changed
the future or the present now.

- Stryker was right.

I wouldn't want
anything to change today.

Even if we didn't find the gold,

the best part was
searching for it with you guys.

Jackson got back
from summer camp

and found out that he had
missed all the fun we had.

Tripp learned not to
throw water balloons

at his little sister.

Jenny's saving her
money for college,

she decided she
wants to be a geologist.

Pip took her whole family
on a tropical vacation

before school started and
gave the rest of her money away.

Stryker invested in a startup
tech company here in Georgia.

Dad's working really hard
to grow his new business

and well, we got
to keep our place.

Oh yeah, don't worry.

Mr. Whiskers is safe and sound
