FTRS Short Story

Rescue - Sort Of

Jocelyn's P.O.V.

"WE'RE FINALLY DONE WITH THIS THING!" Jax cheers.

"I GOT MY TREASURE!!!!" Ollie adds.

"Not yours, Blackbeard's." Maxine corrects.

"GREAT! We're done, now let's head back to FTRS, if I have to see the sea again I am gonna blow." I announce.

"YES! Please! Let's get out of here." Kayla agrees, "We can finally be done with all this...." she gestures to pretty much everything. "Stuff."

Gilly's P.O.V.

"Gilly!" Hayley calls me over.

"Hey Hayley, what's up?" I say.

"Madame Cleo said that they're sending someone over to get you." Hayley explains.

"Really? Who?"

"Umm, I don't know. She didn't say, anyway she said he should be here by lunch time and as it's almost lunch, you should wait outside. I gotta go help Madame Cleo with some stuff. See ya!" Hayley says.

"Alright, bye!" I wave as she disappears under the water.

I plop myself down onto the sand and let Wilson scurry up my arm. "Who do you think it is?" I ask him. 

Wilson squeaks a reply. 

"Umm, that is completely unrelated to what I asked." I say.

Wilson squeaks again, protestingly.

"What?! Nooo!!! What makes you think that?" I say quickly.

Wilson looks at me like 'you know I'm right so stop faking it'.

"I'm not!" I protest. "Seriously. I don't ok? What makes you think that?" 

More squeaking.

"You know what? Just drop it. Whoever it is should be here by now anyway." I decide.

A huge wave of water crashes on top of us and then subsides.

"Sorry Gilly! And Erp! I told you no more splashing!" A voice yells.

I look up and find Jack riding Erp. And Erp, well, Erp is having a pool party in the ocean.

"No Erp, remember what I told you? No. Splashing. Not now at least, c'mon." Jack says as he steers Erp in our direction.

"Umm, I'd rather you-" another wave of water interrupted my sentence, "Not come so close." I finish.

"Whoops, sorry!" Jack says sheepishly, "Erp, let her up." 

Erp sets down his hand and I get on, Wilson following close behind.

"I was kinda getting tired of all the luxury treatment." I say.

Jack gives me a weird look, "We've been freaking out over the fact that we lost you and you complain about luxury treatment?!"

I shrug, "Hey, it was getting kind of tiring."

Jack rolls his eyes at me.

"Now let's hurry up and get home, I'm almost even starting to miss Jocelyn a little." I urge.

Jack raises his eyebrows.

"I said almost." I remind him. "Now let's goooo!!!!"

Hey guys, it's me. Sorry for the late update, I'm sure most of you - i think - know that I was away for a week for camp purposes, and now i'm back! So sorry for the late update! My brother introduced me to a new series, The Kane Chronicles, and it is awesome! I just finished the last book, so i'm using my free time to update. 

Thank you all sooooo much for sticking with this story even though you know my bad updating habits. Feel free to yell update as much as you want. I need the reminder anyway. Well, I know this is probably the most boring chapter I've ever written but I'm on recharge for imagination. I'll try my best to keep updating in my free time. No promises though!
