Coconut's POV

When the sun was hovering over the horizon, I snuck out of my hiding spot and started searching for any new wanderers. I eventually came across the two desserts from the day before, and so I followed them at a safe distance.

The two were walking, seemingly searching for food, talking with each other. They both seemed... calm. I smiled, this is what I planned. First, they must get comfortable to this state of abandonment. Then the true fun begins.

But not now. First I had to gain trust. I already gained a majority of trust from the two I was following. It was just as I thought: they must think of me as a friend, someone that would do the opposite of what I was planning to do.

     Seeing the two walking together made me feel happy. It reminded me of the times I experienced before I was washed up onto this cursed paradise. The memories made me happy, then sad, and so forth, until nothing but insanity filled my mind.

     I had to find a way to get back to my normal life, no matter how cruel the plan sounded. And if I screwed up, I would be stuck on this island until my death. I inched closer to the pair, wondering how I could start the plan. I had to find something, or someone, that could start some form of catastrophe. But who?...

    I held back a chuckle as I walked off, searching for more people. I eventually came across a strange cube-like object trying to wake up a cake slice. I decided to bring the two pairs together, then lead them to the hut.

     I got some dying leaves from a tree and scattered them similar to a path, leading it towards the hut. Soon enough, I heard soft footsteps, then a conversation. I grinned, hiding in a bush. The two pairs have met at the hut. It appears the ones I led last evening have settled down as well.

     The gemstone woke up and joined in sleepily on the conversation, still hugging the flower. Apparently the candy and leaf were out, probably looking for food or water.

     The group went into the hut and simply relaxed. I knew things would eventually get easy for them. I had to change that.

     I had to make things as difficult as possible.
