Josh decided that the fact Pill Bug was missing was a matter of national security. Pill Bug's importance not only to the camping trip but to the nation was one of such great importance no one had ever spoken of it. Josh knew it existed though. It had to exist. Why else would people love Pill Bug so much? Why else would they care if he were missing?

  Since this was obviously a top-secret mission, Josh decided to dress in his best evening camouflage. This was the kind of mission where he could learn from the past. So he also brought along his copy of Winston Churchill's memoirs. There was no way the enemy would get their hands on Pill Bug before Josh did.

  Josh remembered last year when every one went on the Natural Bridge hike. When they got to the cave, Pill Bug stopped hiking. Maybe he was thinking about hiding it that cave. Maybe that is where Pill Bug was right now. Josh decided to check it out.
