Boboiboy Heroes: The End is Near (BOOK 4)

Lonuziq

They sailed to Lonuziq in a small metal boat. Gopal questioned all the way long on why they couldn't take the jet instead and Astor explained for the 100th time that it would catch too much attention from the enemy. Only when they arrived through a wave of mist, Gopal stopped questioning as everyone was amazed by how much more peaceful and beautiful Lonuziq was compared to the other newly created continents. 

The floating island was still as usual, looking full of nature's mystery. Below the island was not the sea anymore, but dry land. Though they were still about 2 kilometres away, they could see the general looks of it. The tides coming high and low at the rocky wall with small cracks of lava, the sun shining through the only hole in the clouds at the water gate, the reflective water gate shining under the bright, and a few colourful energy beams connecting the continent to somewhere within the mist. It was all so beautiful that they briefly forgotten the reason they were here for.

Astor grunted every time he turned the double paddle to move the boat. Finally, he stopped and puffed heavily and collapsed on where he was sitting. 

"Ying," he said, still breathing heavily. "Mind taking over?"

Ying grinned. "No problem!" 

She got to the back of the boat and held on to a long metal bar.

"Super paddle!" 

She ran with her legs splashing violently in the water. The boat suddenly boosted frontwards to the continent. They will be probably be there in no time.

They were now a few metres away from the continent when Astor told Ying to stop and come back in the boat. Ying didn't stop immediately though. She slowly slowed down, little by little. Now they were at the entrance of the water gate. No one here. Everyone got down the boat one by one onto land, in front of the massive translucent water gate.

"Hello? Anybody here?" Gopal asked as his voice echoed through the island.

"Wei, keep it down! You're trying to blow our cover or what?" Fang said.

They walked closer to the gate. Astor was overlooking it. He saw the previously seen energy beams reaching from a newly built white circular building, through the walls. He bet inside is where they would find Boboiboy.

"Alright team, let's get over this gate," Astor said, turning to face them all at once.

Inside of the building was rather much empty. Boboiboy was not there. The walls and floor were plain, no pattern, no nothing, just plain white concrete. The only thing in the room was a spiral ice staircase which sprouted from the west of the room that leads to sunlight.

"I can feel Boboiboy is up there," Ochobot said, looking above the staircase.

All of them took in a deep breath.

"Ready?" Yaya asked.

The others nodded and they tip-toed up the cold stairways. Ochobot and Alxebot were waiting in the room for them to return.
