Quickly, Thea and Benjamin clambered down the ladder into the submarine.

I followed them into the submarine, gingerly placing my steps on the ladder.

But all of a sudden it became darker. I looked up to see Trap's buttocks coming down on my head!

Trap was shouting as he came down the ladder after me, "Come on cousinkins! Hurry up! We don't have all day, you know?"

I forced myself to hurry down, despite my tummy was still in a horrible state from riding in Thea's reckless car ride. I can't take Trap rubbing his rear end into my face! It will surely make me throw up.

Before I could sit down on a seat properly and fasten my seat belt, Trap announced from the controls, "Ok, ready to go!"

The submarine flap closed, dived under water, and lurched forward into the sea. The submarine was zooming through the water!

Did I tell you that I tend to get motion sickness in fast moving vehicles?

Trap was zooming very quickly under water, and the submarine rocked right and left in the strong current.

I had just started to turn back to a mouse brown after Thea's car, and but the submarine ride was turning me into pistachio green again.

Trap drove from the beach straight to Mouse Island East, and he was surely in a hurry. The submarine kept zooming on, lurching side to side.

As I turned to a wasabi green, Benjamin stared at me in shock, as he took in the state I was in.

"Uncle G!" Benjamin shouted as he grabbed a bag and quickly shoved it into my hands.

I had to do what my stomach said. I couldn't say no to my poor tummy after the car ride and now, this submarine ride.

My breakfast quickly ended up in the bag.

"Oh dear, oh dear." Thea sighed, looking at me as if I was the most repugnant sewer rat she had ever seen.

She snatched my bag with the reversed breakfast and dumped it into the submarine trash chute.

"Oh no!" Trap said, "Cousinkins, you've really made our submarine stink. There is nowhere to get fresh air, you know?"

Ohwhy, oh why, did this always happen to me?
