Summery: There's a long story in my mind about the plateau, our favourite couples, and a new one, whom I hope you will like as much as I do.
Hi! This is my first fanfic. I hope you'll like it, in spite of my failures. English is not my motherlanguage, so I' just learning it now. (I do my best):)))
New friendships
Chapter 1
-We've got a good weather, haven't we? - broke the silence with the almost known sentence the Lord, as he looked at his sleepy partners.
-Yes! No one would though, what an awful storm gone trough last night! – Said the professor, than turned to their slow partner – Isn't it right, Ned? NED!
The young journalist climbed with half closed eyes behind them, he haven't realized, that they speak to him, until he crushed to Challenger's back.
-What? Yes, the storm! Well, it's sure it didn't help my sleep. ..-then yawned
The lord turned to him with a childish grin on his face
- What? Neddy-boy afraid of the storms! Who would have known it…?
Malone's eyes skipped fully, and he began a crazy explanation
-No, I'm not! Or... I haven't said that! Just the wind … and those sounds…
The entertaining conversation was disturbed by Challenger:
-Roxton! I think that I've heard something! From there…-and pointed to the bushes, not so far from them.
The hunter took his way to the bushes, with slow and careful steps, without making any noise. After some time he heard it too. Something like …mewing? Yes, he was almost sure in it, he heard a mew of a little cat. Suddenly a smile faded his face. What could Marguarete done with a little cat. Veronica would be happy of course, but what about a mysterious Miss Krux? She haven't mentioned, that she like animals or not. More, in general she never spoke about herself anything, in spite of the full treehouse was loud from her, and sometimes –according to Roxton's thought- the whole plateau…
He shook his head, and now began to say voices, to catch the kitty.
-Of course, a cat! How can it be I Haven't thought about is! - Exclaimed the professor- but how can is be here, in the middle of the jungle!
- We have met stranger things like that! - reminded him Ned
- I'm afraid, Challenger is right! - interrupted them the hunter, and started to run
The others react the same way, as the saw, what he'd seen. At the shore of the inner sea, two figures were laying. According to their clothes, they were from the same world than the explorers. A man and a boy. The man was tall, his dark wet hair sticked to his forehead, he was quiet handsome, between 26 and 28. The not too far lying form seemed to be a boy. Young child, with crazy black hair, not more than 15. Both of them were unconscious and wet, like they were shipwrecked. First Challenger run to the boy, examined him, than turned to the man, and said:
Malone! I hope you're not sleepy anymore. I've got a task for you…
