Chapter 23: Forest of Revelations

Clover Island

"this way hurry" Clover glee in excitement, quickly zapping through the forest.

"Wait!!"  Judie yelled.

"hurry"Clover's voice shouted from the distance.

"H.H....How much longer" Sid said gasping for air.

"hurry up Sid or we will lose her" Zoe yelled running after Clover with Capone, Maxus, Remi, Rory, Judie, Sid and Harper right behind her. (In that order)

"Can't keep any longer" Sid breathed heavily before tripling on a tree trunk and falling to the ground in huge "thump".

"Sid!"

Sid turn to his back continuing to breath heavily. "I...I. catch...up"

"Go on I will wait" Zoe jogged back to where they were once she had noticed that the others had stopped following her. For Sid no less.

The others nodded before rushing after Clover.

"Rest for a bit Sid. Remember that your still recovering" Zoe explained leaning against one of the trees.

"Sorry Zoe" Sid chuckled. "I haven't change much"

A smile escape her lips. "I am not surprised. Your just a kid after all."

"I'm 18 years old! 19 in two months" Sid whined.

"Sid......"

"?hm what is it" Sid asked. He looked up to see Zoe with concern written all over her face. Tears threaten to fall. Sid frowned as he attempted to stand up but he felt a tug on his leg. Without any warning the vines of the forest came to life, pulling Sid along with it.

"Sid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Beginning of Flashback....

"Sid! Sid!!!! Wake up" a small boy shook the older straw hat wearing boy.

"What! that mine" Sid woke up screaming, startling the younger.

"Sid?" the younger tinted his head in confusion.

"hey Roger" Sid beamed adjusting his straw hat. "Why are you here?"

"Mom wanted me find you. Food is almost ready"

"Really!! Why didn't you say so" Sid rushed to his feet. "Hurry lets go"

"What did you catch?"Roger asked looking over the small fish storage.

"Five small fishes" Sid said collected the storage and his fishing rod. "No Sea King sorry"

"You will catch one someday" Roger beamed.

Sid eyes widen in shock before breaking into laughter. "Your right! Someday Roger.......I will catch the largest Sea King and become the king of the sea"

Roger beamed in admiration."So cool!!!!"

Sid walked side by side with Roger through the Loguetown. The citizens greeting them along the way.

"catch any good fish today Sid" The fisher store owner asked.

Sid nodded. "there for mom's fish soup."

The fisher owner chuckled. "Well than hurry it up than"

"Bye" Sid greeted.

"he's a good kid isn't he" the fish owner's wife said walking up from behind him.

The fish owner nodded. "you see there that the kid going somewhere....such a good kid. Well mannered, talent fisherman.."
