C17- Kraken

This day, I invite Golo to go in the sea I was planning to hang with the other as usual pero nakiusap to na kung pwede is dalawa lang kami. Ayon sa geography ng place nato pagkatapos ng forest ay Yung sea na talagang malayo mula sa kinalalagyan namin. Tas sa east Ang Naman is desert.
Dahil sea monster Naman si Golo may ability Sya na parang magteleport sa tubig pero within a certain distance only. That why after just a day  nakarating na kami dun. I also talk to Naseth about this para Dina nila ako hanapin though he was hesitant I assured him to be careful and not do something inappropriate.
Arriving in the sea, I prepared the food well we're going to watch the sunset. We also brought beers. When everything set up sat in the sand.
It's the first time that I seen sea again. I was stock in that place for a long time but thanks to you I had reason to come here again. - I give him a bottle of beer and we cheers.
I was scared to death when that monster nearly fed in you- I spoke well you see I'm the one at fault what happen  I woke up that snake or whatsoever.
I'm the one who almost got heart attack. How could you push me away. See what happen to you
Hehe.. it's my fault after all. Anyway what kind of monster is that thing. It Huge and wide.- ngilabit ako Ng maalala ko itsura nun.
It called Grootslang they're originally a myth from African and half snake and half elephant. The one we saw was more smaller and can grow bigger.- I almost choke in my drink.
Seriously? 😐- that was insane. However I remember theres a lot of huge monster in human imagination.
Is there a dragon here? It's a popular mythical creatures and I saw it in the book but I never seen one. -i wonder.
Ofcourse, they're reside in volcano area. - my eyes sparkle.
Really? Can we go there next time?- he taken aback.
That impossible, I'm be dry and die when I go there. You know I'm sea monster.- ah right. I forgot that. But now I can have the next destination. Gonna check the geographic when we got home. The sun was setting and we remain silent enjoying the sight when he start singing a melody. I sing along with him till the dark succumb the sorrounding. We lye down on the sand and watch the  star but it mostly cloudy.
Hey why is here have sun and visible star but not in the forest.?-
The monster world has 5 continents, the forest was the largest and where most the monster found and most connected to human world, however there's no sunlight there because of it double layer of thick clouds but in full moon the cloud will be disappear and in that time we can see the stars at night. The sea part is the summer vibe with a little clouds it's the second largest and can be acces from human world with few big sea like the pacific. Third is the desert with some canyons and huge rock as a additional figure, out there is  hot like summer all the time. The 4th is the Cold continent with snowing.. Lastly, the Volcano Continent where it was always raining and have thick clouds it was like a steam when your there.- that was very informative if I Must say. This world is really unique as expected. We talked further about things till we fell asleep. I just sleep with the sleeping bag that all I carry along with the food..
When morning comes, we catch fish together and grill to eat. I also find some fruit In  the forest and the coconut. It really feel like vacation. After breakfast Golo and I swam I ride to his back in his original form and he take me underwater, for the first time I seen the ocean deep and it was beautiful. I noticed Golo turn to human again and then grab me and lean for a kiss. That's was not really a literal kiss as he gave me oxygen. He sad it last for 15 minutes so he give me oxygen every 15 minutes when were underwater. He become a dolphins above the water ad j run in his back and he swam like water motorcycle. Unknowly, were so far from shore I can't even see the land it all sea.
Hey Golo I thinks we should return now- I tap him. He did turn and swam when I fell on the water because he's slippery and I didn't hold until him. I float and he come to me when I felt something cold wrap on my legs. I immediately react and kick it to remove whatever it was but it won't budge and pulling me down.
Reklanar!- Golo shouted in his human form and went underwater. I reach for his  hand and struggle, no matter I want to speak only bubble form. I look down to see what it was but it so dark I can't see anything. I'm sinking deeper And deeper I'm already out of gas when this thing push me again and woahh. Thanks goodness. I catch my breath then I was shocked to what I saw. In the sunlight, shine a huge black octopus??. His other hand trying to attacjt and catch Golo but he's also fast.  Then it's hand holding me suddenly raise me and then down to the water in a bit gentle way.
Wahh!!!-i scream when I'm reach the water the impact made me loss conciousness. The octopus let go of me as I sunk down i saw fuzzy image of Golo trying to save me while being attack then someone familiar voice whispered in me and catches me before I completely pass out.
When I opened my eyes I'm already in the cave at my room. -
Your awake- I heard Golo voice. I get up and hug him.
Are you okay?- j asked.
Dummy.. I should be the one asking that. How do you feel - humiwalay ako rito at pinakiramdaman Ang katawan ko.
Feel great.. so what happened?- he explained to me that someone help us and then we return quickly here as planned. Now that I think about.
Anyway, who's that someone who save us.  I felt I heard a familiar voice that time.- I curiously asked but he just gave me a letter in a bottle and bid goodnight and left. I quickly open the bottle and read the letter.
Reklanar, how are you doing? I hope you were fine wherever you are. I'm sorry you got involved in my problem in really worried and relief when Naseth told me that your alive and be able to escape the mermans. Anyway, I return for now in my home and currently facing the greatest challenge between me and Dimox but I'll never be defeated. I also hope you won't either. Let's meet again.  I miss you.. - Chisan.. - I lench my fist and put the letter near my heart as I whispered..
I miss you too, Chisan.- I put in in my heart as I reminiscence the past and hold it even to my sleep. The next day, I plan to go and meet  Warlty to go hangout only to found him with Itnesse and the others including Latner come, they said they want to hang out here for a change.
I heard you got in trouble again yesterday, your really a trouble seeker- Itnesse complimented isn't it? Sighed. Gonna here them again nagging at me and I didn't really mistaken. They talk about like I'm not there like hello I am here. Sighed again. But wait Warlty is silent than usual and Naseth even joined us. I tried to talk to him but he ignored me. What the fuck. When I see a chance  i pull him away from away at nagpakalayo layo kami.
Is there something wrong your quiet today and ignor me.- Tanong ko pero napanganga nalang ako sa reason nya. Nagtatampo Sya at nagbakasyon kami ni Golo na kaming dalawa lang na di manlang sinabi sa kanya. Naku parang bata pero inexplain ko narin na yun ng gusto ni Golo na sinunod lang namin.
Let go somewhere if you want later or sooner.- he's face brighten and nodded in agreement.  But before that I also talk to Itnesse who's ignoring me and invite him to gu with me when I'm going to desert if he want to. He agreed and so we plan our the date and also keep it a secret from everyone except from Naseth.
Your going to another place again with another guy.?arent your so much carefree? Don't you remember you nearly die in that ocean if not by Chisan. -Naseth scolded me.
I think I needed to be with them alone sometimes to know them better. Do you also wanna go? My next destination after this is iceland. -  he stop eating and look at me. What got into you that you Informing me recently and now asking me to accompany you?.- I ignore his stare.
I don't want the other to be punish if I suddenly disappear right?. Well if you don't like you should just have said.- tinapos kona Ang pagkain at umalis. When I stop and glance at him for a moment he was seem In the deep thought.
The next day Itnesse and I start our travel as it will be far away. All the way, we walk and sometimes Itnesse carry me for faster travel. This one taken us first and a half before we reach the desert.
