The Tradition

Chapter 3

They reached the island safely, they all got out of the boat with their belongings.

"Is everybody ok?" Avery asks.

Everybody was fine just scared after what just happened.

Francis takes a deep breathe then says, "Can we go back now?"

Mike sighs and says, "Bad news we have run out of fuel, good news we landed on this island. There might be a small town here."

"Great, let's all just merrily walk through the island with no map or directions whatsoever and hope we get to a town." says Tyler sarcastically.

"We don't need sarcasm right now." says Andrew.

"Hmm, actually this is a pretty good fishing spot, we could fish here." says Mike.

Andrew stares at him and says, "You're joking right? We are at a random island far from where the Dock was, the boat is out of fuel, we could've gotten hurt, but here you are still thinking about fishing?!"

"I agree with Andrew on this one." says Tyler.

"Well, we did want to go fishing, and Mike does kinda have a point that this is a good fishing spot. And it should just take us 30 mins from this island back to the Dock if we take the yacht." says Luke.

"Both of you guys have a point. But I kinda wanna go with Mike on this one, since what's the harm in fishing here? And Luke's right it won't take us that long back to the Dock. And after what just happened I think we kinda need to take a break." says Francis.

"I'll just follow what the majority says." says Avery.

Most of them decided to fish here and stay a while since there's not much of a risk in doing so, and the rest just agreed.

A mysterious old man appears behind them and says, "Well if you want to fish here, you will need a permit. I can show you where to get one if you want me to."

The friends followed the old man into a town, there's people there but they aren't really doing anything but just staring. Not staring at them, they just seem to be lost in thought.

They got the permit and the old man says,"Night fishing is quite beautiful here, I suggest to wait til' it's night time, you can stay at my motel and wait it out. If you guys want to go night fishing. Oh, and I heard you guys needed gas, my motel is near a gas station, so whenever you want to leave you can get gas there, but ofcourse you have to pay."

They all discussed about it and decided to stay at the motel since they were pretty tired from the long car ride, since it took 40 mins to get to the Dock.

They got checked in one room that has 6 beds.

( I know that no motel or hotel has this many beds in one room but there is, for the sake of plot.)

Avery lays down and says, "I'm so tired from the car ride, and all the walking from the boat to this town."

"The reason you're tired from all that walking is because you are lazy and don't exercise." says Tyler with a smirk.

Avery glares at Tyler and says,"Excuse me? Every single morning, I wake up early to jog around the neighbourhood, while your lazy bum is still asleep from playing games all night and raging because you lost."

The others are trying to hold in their laughter. And ofcourse Tyler got mad about what Avery said, because its true.

The rest of the day consisted of Avery chasing Tyler while trying to hit him with a slipper, Luke trying his best to hold Avery back, Tyler hiding behind Andrew, Andrew being used to this since this happens almost everyday, while Mike and Francis just watch this happen. And after that they chatted and talked about random things.
