The seas were calm today and not a single cloud in the sky. It would have been a relaxing day however....."Hurry up Darius, with the engine off, we will be swept out to sea or smashed against rocks!" Kenji shouts out from the lower deck. I look through the broken window and see Yaz and Sammy holding onto a rope as Darius duct taped the hole. "Alright, pull me up." Darius says as Yaz and Sammy pull him up. I walk out of the bridge and make my way down. "We got to plug that hole or gas will be the least of our problems." Darius says as he unties the rope. "Oh, and I thought no GPS was the least of our problems." Kenji sarcastically states. "Hey, not to add to doom and gloom......but I'm pretty sure we're sinking." Yaz states as the boat rocks mid-sentence. "Nah, we are just riding low because...." I say as I point out the Ankylosaur on the boat. Bumpy softly bellows. "Don't listen to them, you are perfect the way you are." Ben says as he caresses Bumpy's head.
"Isn't there any other non-dino infested dock we can go too?" Sammy asks. "The closest one is one the other side of the island. We will never make it with the fuel we have left." Brooklynn says as she shows the map of the island. She's right. The closest dock is the South Ferry Dock but that is just going to be a waste of fuel and time. "Ha! Hold up. There is another dock not far from here. A private one! A dock for the P-house." Kenji says dramatically but I'm just confused. "What does a toilet have to do with a dock?" I say which Kenji looks back confused. "No, not the.....my dad's penthouse. There is a private pier and everything." He says, why just now is he saying this. "You couldn't have said something before?" Yaz questions. "I obvi didn't think of it at the time." Oh he didn't think of it, yeah, like we don't need supplies and a dock now isn't it? "With Brooklynn's keycard, we can get in. It's not a bad idea." I say which everyone agrees. "Alright then....to the P-house!" Darius says with enthusiasm. "To the P-house!" Everyone copy's. I hear Kenji laugh unenthusiastically.
I drive the boat slowly up to the dock. A little bump but no biggie. I check the fuel gauge and it's almost completely empty. "That's the last of the gas, we won't be able to go much further without more." I say as Kenji hangs his arm over me. Totally worth it, cause you're about to see the most exclusive spot on the island." He says dramatically. I raise my eyebrow and walk away, eyes rolling. Dickhead. Soon enough we were on Segways as Kenji leads from the front. Ben decided to ride Bumpy instead. "At the penthouse, we travel in style. It's only a short ride away. And thanks to B's magic key card, opening every single door on the island. I get to finally show you my home away from home." Kenji says as he expertly spins around the entire group. If he wasn't being an idiot....I would be impressed.
Sammy gasps behind me and everyone stops as we see the reason. A small theropod dinosaur. Larger than a Raptor but not as big as Toro or a Ceratosaurus. "Uh, Darius?" Kenji asks as he slowly reverses from the carnivore. It's creeping me out as its just standing there, looking at us. Darius sighs in relief. "It's just a Monolophosaurs. They're loners, pretty much keep to themselves." Darius says as he drives away. Soon enough everyone goes, but I go slowly as I keep eye contact with the dinosaur. What are you doing? I think as I speed away. I look back just to see and the Dino has turned around and another one has showed up. Didn't Darius say they're loners. "What the fuck?" I whisper quietly as I catch up to the rest of the group.
We all stop as the penthouse comes into view. "Pretty cool, right? Wait until you see the inside." Kenji says smugly as we drive up to the glass doors. "Looks pretty clear, we get in, get what we need and get out." Darius says which makes me think about the Mono's from before. The only logical explanation of can come up with is that they are a mating pair.....I hope that's all it is. "No offence but this isn't Bumpy's type of place." Ben says as Bumpy starts to graze. "No offence but she is a 8,000 pound dinosaur that we totally trash my pad." Kenji replies arrogantly. I shake my head. We come up to the door and wait. Brooklynn hovers the card over and the green light appears. It works. We enter the building and it just screams celebrity-worth luxury, just in the fucking lobby. I walk over to the elevator and press the button. Nothing happens. "Elevator doesn't work, guess we are going to have to take the stairs." I say as we arrive at the foot of the stairs and look up. "How many floors are in this building Kenji?" I ask. "35." He replies quietly. I take the first step. Long way to go.
