Katrina and I scurried down a cramped avenue in a part of the city I'd never visited before. For the record, I haven't seen much of Ikigai II outside Patch's workshop. This is all so new to me, it's kind of overwhelming. This neighborhood appeared to be mainly populated by cyborgs. They stared at me and murmured amongst themselves.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAWFqtgN95i1
"Is that a human?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAY0JWcutx7C
"What's a human doing in this part of the city?
134Please respect copyright.PENANADcdRv2bjUU
"Is she lost?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAUGYyPrAAju
"Who's that with her? Isn't she in a band or something?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANALqIC5181hT
The weight of their gaze bore into me, and a growing sense of panic blossomed inside me. My heart palpated, so violently my chest ached, and I broke out into a cold sweat. "Where are we going?" I asked as Katrina pulled me in a new direction.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQZ3ZbtCpNr
"We need to catch up with the boys fast, so we're going to need a ride."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAERghefA5U8
We stopped outside a large shipping container. Katrina pulled a crowbar out of her purse.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAPDIfH0BBBR
I gawked at her. "Why do you carry around a crowbar?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAYYOri75ej9
She raised her shoulders in a half shrug. "Lots of reasons, opening crates, self-defense, and taking my stupid ex's car for a joyride."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAEzPwXNjVLl
"Excuse me, what?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAe5SIFCBfnN
She shoved her crowbar underneath the shipping container door and attempted to force it open.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAZp1sAUyJS0
"Are you crazy? You can't break into someone else's shipping container, with all these people watching. You shouldn't be breaking in at all!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAN04fb96MZw
She scanned the surrounding area, then waved her hand dismissively. "It's fine, everyone here knows better than to snitch on me." Katrina let out a triumphant laugh as she finally pried open the door. She lifted the door, revealing a red, well-kept, vintage, car. It looked as if it cost more than Patch made in a year.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAI375BOjGCy
"I thought you were joking about the car theft!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANASrvl8hkCB6
"I never joke about stealing my ex's car."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAnc7dtPAsBL
"Katrina!" I scolded.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAiIc4E1n3Vn
"Relax, I do it all the time."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAGrFS5tIC8z
"How is even possible? I didn't think there were any cars on Ikigai II." I said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAhqLr81MQqc
"There's not supposed to be, but my stupid ex, Marc, loved breaking rules. So, he smuggled one onto the island."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAaj0DEpkkN4
I crossed my arms sourly. "I can't believe we're doing this."
134Please respect copyright.PENANABGv25tn9GN
"Believe it, sister!" Katrina said, as she used a long hook to slide down the window through the window seal. She shimmied her arm into the newly created opening, then pulled open the lock from the inside.
134Please respect copyright.PENANABAmxyeGhTI
"How are we supposed to turn it on?" Didn't know much about cars, but I do know you need a key to start the ignition.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAmcJdHlBgV5
"Don't worry, Stupid Marc always leaves a spare key in the glove box." Katrina reached across the seat and pulled out the key.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAXZGIS8YsZH
I rolled my eyes. "Of course he does." I was hoping there was a way I could get out of this.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAgxsP2FkjGo
"Well, we don't call him Stupid Marc for nothing."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAJR3fTSvDuC
Katrina hopped into the driver's seat and motioned for me to sit in the passenger seat.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAd8gkGgTcPn
I let out a reluctant sigh and climbed into the car. "Alrighty then, let's get out of here."
134Please respect copyright.PENANApX8wAZxTAd
"You have nothing to worry about, I'm an excellent driver. " Katrina reassured me, as she backed into two trash cans. "Whoops." She did a three-point turn and knocked over three more trash cans. She stomped on the gas pedal and sent us speeding down the cramped street, most likely knocking over several more trash cans in the process. She took a sharp left turn, causing my entire body to slam against the car door.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5DszeEVS3
"What the hell, Katrina?" I asked in annoyance.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAJZgC8ciKAf
She turned to me. "Sorry about that. Are you okay?" While she focused on me, she drove directly into a fruit cart, causing fruit to splatter across the windshield.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAam06SXxdr4
A vendor shouted at her, as she zoomed away from the scene.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAydxTqpwS4t
"You're a menace," I said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAL8Wg2hBfJg
"Hey, my driving instructor said the same thing."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAskHSDVxIBL
I regret leaving home. Why didn't I stay home where I was safe? Then I remembered, the apartment wasn't safe anymore. Just thinking about the break-in made me shiver. Even though I hated it, I'm probably safer with Katrina than I am at home.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAXwklIG8JyE
After five turbulent minutes on the road, we reached the boardwalk. As soon as we stopped, I flung open the door and climbed out on wobbly legs. I clutched my stomach. I felt like I was going to throw up.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAYtfG34O3gT
"That was fun! We should do that again sometime!" Katrina said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAeew4w9qUri
"No, thanks." I don't think I'm ever getting in a car again. I think I just unlocked a new phobia.
134Please respect copyright.PENANANJZ6GfPfju
"Come on, where's your sense of adventure?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAUXi9AjJdbj
"I was born without one of those," I confessed. "I need some fresh air," I said as I ducked behind a series of tents. I stopped when I reached the boardwalk's edge. My gaze drifted to the crashing waves beneath us, and I took a deep inhale of the salty sea air. I leaned over the railing, but I wasn't afraid to fall. There was a force field preventing anyone from falling off the boardwalk's edge. I wish there were force fields everywhere, then everything would be much safer. I wonder if I'd feel less anxious if that were the case.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAyUHBSTCgpV
"Are you okay?" Katrina asked.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAA9rOpSOqXp
I haven't been okay once in the past six years. "I'm fine." I lied.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAREuPgTbYx5
That answer seemed to satisfy her, and she didn't ask any more questions.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQo34gbLfxf
I heard the loud sound of footsteps approaching and turned around to see who was coming. Several people dressed in Bionic Corp uniforms marched toward us.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAOhXX7SM3MA
Now my stomach churned so violently, it made audible sounds. They'll probably just walk right past us. I tried to console myself.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAwurRgdBO76
My last shred of hope flew out the window when the group of Bionic Corp employees halted right in front of us.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAaTcH45mbY1
One of them stepped forward. "Hello there, my name is Quentin Holgate, and I'm an ambassador of the Bionic Corporation. I'd like to have a private chat with Miss Contreras."
134Please respect copyright.PENANABZL5Sprs6e
Katrina clenched her fists. "I'm not leaving her alone with you, creep!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAf3OUtny9mW
Quentin stroked his beard thoughtfully. "Please escort Miss Madden away from here."
134Please respect copyright.PENANApgNbMuWRVM
The other Bionic Corp employees grabbed a hold of Katrina and dragged her away.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA1hdsi2UCLC
"Unhand me, miscreants! My lawyers will hear about this!" Katrina yelled at the staff, but they remained unfazed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAlkJev0x3i9
Now Quentin and I were alone. I clenched my hands into fists. This interaction could take a turn for the worst, and I don't have any weapons. I never should've left the house.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA2nmCS4iH9E
"I'm here to ask you some questions about your uncle." Quentin opened up the notes' section on his Holowatch and began typing.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA9v3pEEoAbt
I wrapped my arms around myself. "What about him?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAwORbwqLcI6
"Do have any idea where he is right now?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAjOWE1LnFmI
"No," I said, truthfully.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAuOPtVOVK1D
"When was the last time you saw him?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANANDh7ZtSVfX
"I'm sorry, are you a cop?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAOMx9JsuQfl
"I beg your pardon."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAbXM8NeehJp
"Because if you're not, you have no right to interrogate me!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAekSXRj6kDS
He pursed his lips into a thin line. "I'm questioning you for the safety of all of Ikigai II."
134Please respect copyright.PENANADEC9tCDn5x
I raised a disbelieving eyebrow. "Please tell me how all of Ikigai II is in danger because of my uncle's actions.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAqcDswprCJW
"He's an army deserter and a fugitive of the law. Who knows what he's capable of."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAGxaa52YNIL
"Patch doesn't want to hurt anyone. He just wants to be left alone."
134Please respect copyright.PENANA5Lka9Gq3Ut
Quentin shot me a challenging glare. "Are you sure about that?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANA4rDNeoqPUX
"Yeah...I'm sure." I stammered. Patch wouldn't hurt anyone, would he? I didn't want to believe Patch would willfully harm someone, but after hearing what the man in the skull told me about Atlas, I don't know anymore. There's so much I don't know about my own family. I have no idea what they're capable of.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAM8bHEG0iIj
"You don't sound very certain, Miss Contreras."
134Please respect copyright.PENANATMrrysuF9t
"Shut up!" I snapped. I don't usually yell at strangers like this, but I don't have any patience left today, especially not for Bionic Corp. "I don't know where Patch is, and even if I did, I wouldn't tell you!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAkoQE4qg8Cf
"Watch your temper, Miss Contreras, we don't want things to get messy."
134Please respect copyright.PENANA0D7g8oQruU
"No, you made things messy when you sent Oblivion to threaten me in my own home!"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAIownJtWZtK
A brief look of guilt spread across his face, but he quickly wiped it off. "I have no idea what you're talking about. You must be mistaken. We are a highly reputable corporation, we would never do such a thing."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAFx2mimadVA
I gritted my teeth. He's such a liar. It makes me sick.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAAFwzEDbxyW
He cleared his throat. "As I was saying, your uncle has evaded the law for almost twenty years, and I think it's time he's held accountable for his actions. Don't you?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAEEodxod0w0
I didn't dignify him with a response.
134Please respect copyright.PENANABqX7Z9ZygQ
"You know, Miss Contreras, if you know where your uncle is hiding, and you don't tell us you could be charged with obstruction of justice, and land yourself in prison for up to three years. You don't want that do you?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAYoWRyNXumj
"I thought we established that you aren't a cop and don't have that type of authority. You're just trying to scare me. I'm going to tell you the same thing I told you before, I don't know where Patch is, but even if I did, I wouldn't tell you."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAwCH08wagYz
He grimaced. "I'm disappointed to hear you say that. I was hoping you'd be more cooperative." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a business card. "Contact us if you change your mind." He forced the card into my hands. Then stomped away, muttering something foul under his breath.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAWMctmZnapL
As soon as he was out of eye shot, I chucked his business card into the sea. I'd rather saw off my arm than betray Patch. He made so many sacrifices to take care of us. The least I can do is try to protect him now, wherever he is. If Bionic Corp is still searching for him, that means he's safe for now, but he can't avoid them forever. Oh, Patch, where are you? I glanced around the pier for Katrina, but she'd seemingly disappeared. The entire boardwalk had gone eerily quiet. I peered through the fog, searching for any sign of life, but there were none. A shiver traveled down my spine. Something wasn't right here.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQIfnaSDO0q
I took a deep breath and trekked in the direction Katrina was dragged off to. I wrapped my arms around myself as I strolled along the abandoned dock. Where the hell is everyone?
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQTQICpZCsF
An army of cleaning droids sped towards a tent at the end of the pier, as they made frantic beeping sounds.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAyZMsmGkPgT
They sure seem to be in a hurry. Maybe I should follow them and see what's gotten them so worked up.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA6iwhq5GL0g
I crept up behind the cleaning droids and stalked them to their destination. All the tiny droids zoomed in and out of one specific tent. I noticed a gooey dark red substance leaking through the tent's fabric. As I tiptoed closer, a caught a whiff of something metallic, it was reminiscent of the smell of rusty pennies. It was blood! The realization hit me like a tidal wave. I was going definitely going to hurl this time. Even from the outside, I could tell the entirety of the tent was soaked with blood. I gasped for air and my fingers trembled. Someone died here! Someone was killed right in front of me! Someone died! Someone died! Someone died! The words played over and over in my head like a broken record. Someone died! Someone died! Someone died! This wasn't the first time I'd witnessed gore like this, but I'd hoped I'd never have to see it again. Someone died! Someone died! Someone died! It's official, I'm never going outside again.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA0sgX5V1r8Q
I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around to see who was touching me. Behind me stood two men drenched in blood. Are they the murderers? Am I their next victim? I reached for the butter knife I'd stuffed into my pocket for self-defense. It was all I could find on short notice. One of the guys was pretty short and skinny, I could probably take him in a fight. The other guy was taller and had a more athletic build. I was much less sure about taking him on, but I had to defend myself from these assailants. I clenched my fist around the butter knife and aimed for the eye.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAw03lgfZQ9W
Before I could strike, Katrina jumped between us and wrenched the knife out of my hand at lightning speed. I had no idea she was that fast. "What are you doing?" She shouted.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAPGeNGu0hRw
"I—" I stammered. What was I doing? Did I misread the situation somehow?
134Please respect copyright.PENANAlnkaGvEl4m
Katrina gently released her grip. "Calm down, killer."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAvpTKih5n4a
One of the bloody men spoke up. " I'll be honest, that was kind of scary." I recognized that voice. It was Chase!
134Please respect copyright.PENANAAgKfM0WHLr
I stared at the other blood-soaked man and with a starting realization, I recognized him as Atlas.
134Please respect copyright.PENANARW75ZQ53uk
I let out a relieved sigh. This wasn't a murder attempt. "What the hell happened to you guys?" I asked.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA5oyiD6j3op
"Don't worry, this isn't our blood," Chase said, gazing down at his blood-soaked clothes.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAFQScqmmBm7
Atlas refused to make eye contact. "Someone used The Code." He signed. He looked so distraught, it broke my heart. It took all my willpower to stop myself from pulling him into a warm embrace. I resisted because he was covered in blood, and I was still mad at him for being an idiot.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAKY5d4Cp6qH
I glanced him up and down, checking for injuries.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA7Kwn6EmebZ
"I'm fine, Marisa. You can stop worrying about me." He signed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAEpTjBEiABp
My lips tightened into a firm line. "I'm never going to stop worrying about you, Atlas. Especially, if you keep putting your life in danger. Why can't you just live a safe, normal life?
134Please respect copyright.PENANAfkgDxcquqX
Atlas gave me a sorrowful look but didn't answer.
134Please respect copyright.PENANADVslKe741I
I fought the urge to roll my eyes. Why does he have to be like this? Why can he give up this life? It's clear that this life is tearing him apart. Trouble is a drug he refuses to quit, just like those damn cigarettes.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAIF4oNuYfVn
Once the silence became uncomfortable, Katrina chimed in. "So did you guys get the third piece of the map?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANASoTf8ECMJH
Chase reached into his pocket and pulled out a small device. When he pushed a button on the side of the device, the third piece of the map projected itself onto the air in front of us.
134Please respect copyright.PENANArpV5isYKPx
Atlas projected the other two-quarters of the map on top of Chase's projection. When they were pieced together, the map was almost complete.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAaDWXIKOVBx
Katrina reached out to touch it.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA2EvqNPHJ4x
"Be careful, it might self-destruct or do something else evil."
134Please respect copyright.PENANA1Miznncz8C
I hid behind Katrina. "What do you mean, it might self-destruct?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANA9iFKSNRMDs
"It was a gift from our old buddy Oblivion," Chase said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAEOwl8qcXDe
I raised an eyebrow. "Oblivion let you get away with the map."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAqdbjw3MFNt
"Yeah, pretty much."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAzWqnTzwndb
"That seems out of character." I thought back to being strangled by Oblivion in my kitchen and shivered. There's no way that monster just let them go.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAjDkqjbcH9h
"It was strange. Oblivion wanted us to have it. They insisted on us taking it." Atlas signed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAhIqUs3P3MH
"I don't trust it," I said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAfsG0QJhkJJ
Katrina scrutinized the map, examining it from all angles. "As the resident map expert, I have to say, it appears genuine."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAIv9HJtFTN9
Atlas merged the three separate pieces of the map. It was coming together now. I could finally make out the shape of the island and parts of the pathway the map wanted us to follow. It wasn't enough to fully discern what the map lead to, but we were getting close. Only one-quarter of the map is still missing. "This still seems sketchy to me."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAwsKv2bNC8S
Chase rolled his eyes. "Yeah, we know. You worry about everything. If Oblivion wanted to kill us right now, we'd already be dead. For whatever reason, Oblivion decided to give us the map, and I say, why bite the hand that feeds?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANArIvtuOj5yq
"Instead of telling me to worry less, maybe you guys should worry a little more!" I snapped. I look to Atlas, hoping he'd jump to my defense, but he remained silent. You know he's really starting to get on my nerves!
134Please respect copyright.PENANAfR4UWfbKec
"I did a thorough inspection of the map, and it doesn't appear to be tampered with. Atlas signed. "I think we should focus on finding the final piece of the map."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAuPnqWyWrIW
I'd already managed to track the location of the fourth piece of the map, but I was hesitant to share it with the boys because I knew they'd do something stupid. "Retrieving this last piece is going dangerous."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAkL3HgtpFng
Chase cracked his cybernetic knuckles. "Not to brag or anything, but since yesterday, I've become an expert on surviving dangerous situations."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQt2jsU1i1F
"No, this one is much riskier than anything you've done before. I don't want to tell you where it's hidden because it's a death trap."
134Please respect copyright.PENANA4zhjO0vWVN
"Why don't we take a vote," Katrina suggested. "If the majority wins we go, if not, we all go home."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAfC3m6yJqop
I glanced around the circle. "You all agree to go home if the majority votes against it?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANArO4SsGLIU5
Everyone nodded.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAt92xtZSQrD
Fine," I grumbled. "It's in the home of Marjorie Spoketon, Bionic Corp's CEO.
134Please respect copyright.PENANASidamW6OLl
"Not Marjorie! Please anyone but her! She's the worst!" Chase whined.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAa3LkM0vmJr
"Do you know her?" Atlas shot him a quizzical look.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAJkkaok2VEd
"Yeah, she's my great aunt," Chase confessed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAjeNj0c1fOw
Atlas shot him an accusatory glare. "Why didn't you tell me you were related to Bionic Corp's CEO?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANAccxjFZNxvn
Chase threw his arms up in the air. "Do you really expect me to remember which company she worked for? I can't even remember my social security number. Plus, I thought Bionic Corp was just a boring old toaster company until yesterday."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAtneWA5Uz18
Atlas scowled. "We'll discuss this later. Right now, we need to vote."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAmhNnwsZkSS
"I vote against it!" I chimed in."This is a stupid and reckless plan, and we're in way over our heads. Let's all go home."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAAR2cojNkx3
Chase scoffed. "Wow, what a surprise! Marisa wants to quit, I'm shocked."
134Please respect copyright.PENANA8kioxjICZ4
"Hey! You don't have to be an asshole about it!" I had no patience for his sarcastic remarks right now. I turned to Atlas, hoping this time he'd stand up for me.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA6xGuRLtUZg
Atlas shot Chase a disapproving stare, but he didn't defend me.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAXbD4NRxMO1
A pang of disappointment tugged at my heartstrings. It hurt, knowing my brother wouldn't defend me against someone he'd only known for a day. I thought we were closer than that, but I guess I was wrong.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAnCpWjNplJW
"I vote yes to the plan I hate Aunt Marjorie because she's always super passive-aggressive at family reunions. I look forward to robbing her." Chase said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAG9c8Xkt8JZ
"I also vote in favor of the plan." Atlas signed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAWcuZgvauh5
I rolled my eyes. Of course, he did. Atlas can never quit.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAksPlxJ3eQd
We all turned to Katrina. It was up to her now.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAH3bBSUGCfD
The corners of her lips turned downward in contemplation. "You guys keep talking about the plan, but we don't have one."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAETq01StjEB
"Is that a no?" I asked, hopefully.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAQYCX4SERiP
"Not necessarily." She replied.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAkq7jQTjJM9
My heart sank.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA7NiVrQLTiz
"I just want to know exactly what we're doing before I commit." She said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAxSuXgHsDsD
"The map is secured in her safe within her Sydney vacation home," I explained. "The security is top-notch. There's no way we can get anywhere near the place without getting caught."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAynCrvstZDs
"What if we didn't have to sneak in?" Chase suggested.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAHaZNqw3laN
"There's no way she'll willingly invite us in." Atlas signed.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAvokwee4D1j
Chase let out a sheepish chuckle. "Actually, she did." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a gold crested slip of paper. He unfolded it and displayed it for all of us to see.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA27Qeo6VV3O
It read; Marjorie Spoketon requests your presence to celebrate of the arrival her 72nd year on this earth. Join us May 6th at 7:00 pm at 101 Stoneleigh Place, Sydney, Australia. This invitation welcomes Chase Huxley and one guest to the celebration.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAkOw9Q9gklQ
Chase rolled his eyes. "Have you ever read something so supercilious in your life? God, she's so pretentious."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAlTFhyJdhuJ
"Have you been carrying that around the whole time?" Atlas looked surprised.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAiHOy29eqkH
I was more surprised Chase knew what the word supercilious meant.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAimZxgBjXaC
"Of course, I've been carrying it around. I never say no to the chance to party, even if I can't stand the host." Chase said.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAcCydjuzqHm
"Hey! I got an invitation just like the one! We could take you guys as our dates!" Katrina bounced up and down.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAoPMnbdfCi4
I guess she was voting yes. "How long until Ikigai II docks in Australia?" I asked.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAbyEEivAILi
Atlas squinted and peered over the horizon. "Roughly two days."
134Please respect copyright.PENANAWdbGI1z3xg
"Oh well, too bad, we won't make it in time for the party." I said, feigning disappointment.
134Please respect copyright.PENANACbR3bng8zg
Atlas smirked. "Not if we steal a boat."
