These hard choices are making me feel really... really slee...

Morning – Back on the Happy-Go-Lucky – Mood: Foooooooooooood!

Big news! The good type this time! I was sitting by the ruined ship (wide awake, obviously), staring at the piece of cloth and feeling sorry for myself, when a familiar voice rose behind me.

“That’s a nice looking piece of cloth. Amazing what you can do with a good piece of cloth.”

I looked up and grinned. Standing next to me, as if he had never left my side, was Abraham, the old wizard, leaning on his staff.

I stood up and threw my arms around his neck. “Abraham!” I shouted happily. I instantly regretted it. His beard tickled my neck, and he smelled really weird. Like something you would find under your bed after a few years, which may or may not have originally been food. I pulled back quickly. Abraham looked a little shocked by it all, his eyes open wide.

“This was Scotty's,” I said. “He is somewhere on this island. I know it.”

A grin spread across Abraham's face. “Then we shall find him and our quest shall be complete!” He punched the air and then frowned, examining his nails. “I don’t remember that being there,” he mumbled.

I’ve got to admit, I’ve missed the old guy and his goldfish-like attention span.

“Scotty? Why does that name sound familiar?” My eyes widened and I spun around. It was a voice I had never thought I would hear again. It was Cat!

She sauntered around the hull of the Angry Mermaid, staring up at it with a frown, as if last night had just been some kind of crazy dream.

But her torn clothing, the cuts on her arms and her slight limp told a different story. Sally and Bob walked behind her, not quite as casual, glancing towards the jungle with nervous eyes.

I ran over to her and hugged her as well.

“You're alive!” I grinned. “I can't believe you're alive!”

“Ack! Aaack!” Cat said as I accidentally crushed her throat with my shoulder. I pulled back.

“Sorry.”

She coughed a bit and straightened out her collar. “Yes, well, it will take more than a few monsters to kill Cat Danger!” She lifted her sword into the air and the blade fell off its hilt, hitting the floor with a soft clang. She looked at the broken sword in her hand and sighed. “Well, there were a lot of monsters.” She looked up at the Angry Mermaid and shook her head. “This is nasty. I wouldn't wish that on any ship. I hope the crew made it off OK.”

I nodded. “I know they did.”

It turns out that the Happy-Go-Lucky wasn't that far away from the Angry Mermaid. If I had just walked around the corner, I would have found it tucked away in a small cove. Now I can finally get some rest.

I think I can hear Sally making some food. He is singing.

I love that guy.
