Part 6: Island of Illusions

"Are we there yet?" Rizuki asked in annoyance. Their journey to the Island of The Sirens still remains and they have not yet reached the island.

"Rizuki, I swear to the ocean god that if ya don't stop complainin' then I'm gonna throw ya over board!" Eduardo yelled at the top of his lungs in frustration. Rizuki stuck out her tongue at Eduardo.

"Geez, there's no need to yell Eduardo," Rizuki answered, "I was just asking a question."

"Yeah, a question that yer've asked about 1,000,000 times now," Russell responded in annoyance. Rizuki scoffed.

"Russell, you're way over exaggerating," Rizuki commented.

"Whatever," Russell replied impatiently, "Whether I'm exaggeratin' or not, yer still drivin' us insane!"

"You're not going insane Russell," Rizuki responded as she rolled her eyes, "If you really were going insane then you would be either trying to kill everybody on board or you would be hitting your head against the deck randomly, but you're not. So, that means that you aren't going insane." Russell gave an exasperated sigh.

"Yer really annoyin', ya know that?" Russell asked as he scowled at Rizuki. Rizuki glared at Russell.

"You're really full of yourself, you know that?" Rizuki asked back. Russell glared at Rizuki.

"I ain't full of m'self!" Russell exclaimed before turning to the others, "Right guys?" The others looked at him in question.

"Right what?" Thomas asked confused. Russell frowned.

"I ain't full of m'self, right?" Russell asked again. The others didn't say anything. They only looked at each other. "Ha, see they don't think that I'm full of m'self." Rizuki sighed and shook her head.

"Russell, when you ask someone something and they go quiet or they just don't say anything that means that they don't agree with you," Rizuki explained. Russell stared wide-eyed at her before turning to the others in anger. "Just face it Russell, you're full of yourself."

"I ain't full of m'self!" Russell exclaimed as he glared at the others, "How could ya betray me like that?! We've been on this ship together for how long and yer gonna take his side?!" The others shrugged. Rizuki rolled her eyes.

"Wait, so, where exactly did you say we were going this time?" Rizuki asked.

"The Island of Illusions," Captain responded with a mischievous grin. Rizuki stared at him for a moment.

"And, why would we go there?" Rizuki asked in confusion.

"They say that there's great treasure there if ya get to the middle of the house of illusions," Captain explained.

"Well, luckily for Thomas and I we will be on board instead of going in some silly house of illusions," Rizuki commented. Captain raised his eyebrow.

"And, who says that ya ain't  comin' along with us?" Captain asked. Thomas' face brightened a little bit.

"You want me and Thomas to come?" Rizuki asked in shock. Captain slightly nodded his head. "And, who's going to watch the ship?" Captain stopped and looked at her.

"Rizuki, ya come with us," Captain ordered, "Thomas, ya stay on the ship." Thomas' brightened face turned dark and he nodded in disappointment. Rizuki glanced over at Thomas sympathetically.
"I thought I made it clear that I was going to stay on the ship with Thomas," Rizuki remarked.
"Ya did," Captain replied. Rizuki lifted an eyebrow.

"So, that means that I'm not coming with you guys," Rizuki responded.

"Haha, well, not on this adventure yer not," Captain answered. Rizuki frowned at him and glanced at Thomas, who still looked pretty bummed out.
