Author Note:

I just want to say, I rushed a bit through this part.

But you'll probably understand why.

Fire.

It can be beautiful.

But it can be also terrifying. 

Whatever crosses paths with fire, is forever marked with a burn from the heated gas.

 "What?..." I slowly sat up in my bed, picking up my ChromePhone to check all my notifications.

Apparently, there was a fishing contest event being held at 9 am. Depending on how many fish you catch, the size, and the type, determines how 'good' of a reward Monocroak will give you at the gift shop. I figured I should check it out after breakfast.

I carefully made my way down the ladder of my tree house, since a fall would most likely be painful, if not lethal.

I entered the Island Restaurant expecting a breakfast of chatter and chants about the Pancake King, or some friendly argument about a random topic. 

But then the realization hit me a little too late.

The trio that seemed to be the cause for all the morning shenanigans had all met their doom at the last island. 

Nona was killed by a falling chandelier. Pix consumed poison given to her by Cho. Nash was found guilty for the accidental and unintentional murder of his twin sister.

 "Would you like some waffles, Saoirse?" Amari asked me, passing out plates to all the remaining slots on the table.

 "Sure," I replied.

I took a peak into the kitchen to see who was cooking today's meal. It was Naomi and Leo, with Hana and Amari assisting by placing kitchen on the table for the meal. It was nice seeing the four who don't typically interact with one another make breakfast together. But at the same time it was a little odd for Sergey to not be the one cooking.

I took a seat at largest table in the Island Restaurant, that only had nine chairs remaining.

People began to arrive shortly, and the morning announcements soon played.

*ding ding, bing bong*

 "This is an official island announcement! It is now 7 am, so rise and shine! Or don't. It really doesn't matter either way." Monocroak spoke over the loud speaker. "I would remind you of the motive, though, I don't think there's need for that. Have a nice day murdering each other!"

 "Waffles?" A certain cyanette walked through the doors of the Island Restaurant. "What happened to pancakes?"

 "Pancakes require actual cooking skill," Leo answered, being out a plate of waffles. "The waffles can just be warmed up in the microwave, so they're easier to make without accidently setting something on fire."

Amari seemed to freeze up and they dropped the plate of waffles they were carrying after the concept artist spoke.

 "I can help with that!" Hana rushed over to help them clean of the mess.

 "Sorry," They apologized, embarrassed by the mess they made. 

 "It's fine," The brunette said. "Naomi can just put more in the microwave if we need more. Plus, there's no shortage of packaged waffles in the freezer of the kitchen, so I doubt we're likely to ru out."
