Truffle stared at her ceiling as she has done for the last couple of months. It’s that day again. The day she lost her possible true love. Taylor. She’d sigh, knowing she’d possibly never see her again. The sound of waves crashing against the cruise filled the silence in the dark room, but it still felt too quiet. She missed Taylor, and you can visibly see it.
DING DONG BING BONG! ‘Morning already..?’ Truffle thought to herself as she got out of her bed begrudgingly and exited her room. The other contestants exited out of their rooms too and walked to the front deck. Monobox was waiting, and a small tv was floating next to him.
“Alright dear contestants! Since you guys somehow already eliminated a fellow contestant, there will be no wheel o’ death!” He exclaimed, “And so that means we’ll be doing another challenge!” He clapped his hands and they were all teleported into some sort of submarine. “Today’s challenge is to find the sunken ship with treasure and bring it back to me!” he’d point to one of the walls of the submarine, “There’s your diving equipment, now go!” Monobox disappeared and like that, everyone put on their diving equipment and went to look for the sunken ship.
Truffle swam a little farther off away from the other contestants, and was just looking around. She didn’t want to do the challenge, and was hoping to be put on the wheel o’ death. She wanted to see Taylor again, and that was all.
The sound of someone laughing from afar could be heard from where Truffle was, and it wasn’t from the contestants. She swam toward the sound of laughter and saw a yellow history book with fish-like features, laughing at a purple lollipop with the same features, but with a crimson cape and tophat.
The history book was laughing at the fact the purple lollipop’s tail was caught in a fisher’s net. Truffle carefully made her way behind the lollipop, pulling out a sharp knife and silently cutting the net so their tail would no longer be caught up in its jumbled stringy mess. “Hey Taylor! Is that your girlfriend?” the history book cackled, Truffle quickly putting away the knife as her and Taylor made eye contact.
Taylor started to tear up covering her mouth before rushing to Truffle and hugging her tightly. “Truffle, what are you doing here?” she’d question, still not letting go of the other female. “A new challenge started and it was to find a sunken ship.” Truffle explained, holding Taylor close not wanting to let go. “There is one sunken ship nearby, should we head to it?” Taylor suggests, “No, I’d rather just stay here with you.” Truffle said, relaxing a little bit. “Alright, whatever you say my love.” Taylor slowly brought her and truffle to the bottom of the small rocky clearing. She’d ‘sit’ down and snuggle with Truffle, her tail lashing from side to side.
The two stayed down there for a while, until the miserable sound echoed through the water. DING DONG BING BONG! “May all contestants please come back to the submarine.” Monobox said in a monotone voice, Taylor sighed and looked down. Truffle was holding onto Taylor tightly, sniffling a little bit. “Oh my! What’s wrong my dear?” She’d quickly attempt to wipe away Truffle’s tears but the diving gear got in the way. “I don’t want to lose you again” Truffle sniffed, “Hey, it’s going to be okay. I can follow the ship and every night I’ll be waiting for you at the back, when they open the hatch to throw out the dead bodies and some organic trash. They’ll keep it open for a while so we will be able to have a lot of time to stick together.” Taylor patted her partner’s back as Monobox came back on the speakers, “May ALL contestants please come back to the submarine? Thank you.” “Seems like Monobox is kinda irritated, it’s best if you go now.” Taylor let go Truffle, “Can you at least come with me? Please?” She’d hold onto Taylor’s hand. “Sure thing darling.”
The two swam back to the submarine, Taylor stayed behind the sub to make sure they wouldn't get caught. “Wow, no one got the treasure?” Monobox said disappointingly, teleporting everyone back onto the cruise. Taylor quickly swam to the surface and toward the cruise too due to her not being teleported.
