It was an average day in Sooga Village. The sun was shining, The citizens were going about their business, and of course, a certain little Noodle delivery girl was chasing after a Ninja she loved.

Garu had been running and hiding from Pucca all morning. Frankly, he was getting sick of it. That's when he got the idea. He knew of a small boat that was docked down by the beach. If he could get to it, then he could paddle out to sea. Leaving Pucca behind.

With Pucca right behind him, he had no time to waist. Garu made a mad dash to the beach where the boat was stationed.

Quick as a flash, he created a fake clone of himself to distract Pucca, he hopped onto the boat, and quickly paddled away.

Shortly after Garu had left the dock, his clone disappeared, leaving Pucca alone and confused.

She got a look at the real Garu, who was still paddling for his life. She just giggled and swooned over her crush. Before skipping away.

Garu noticed that he was no longer in danger, He triumphantly chuckled with a big smile as he stopped his paddling, and relaxed his arms.

But he noticed something strange. A chain of islands that he's never seen before had just moved into view. Garu has more than often used this boat to explore or go on missions around in the ocean, but he had never seen these islands before.

Garu figured it was ok to go explore a bit. After all, now that Pucca was gone, he was in no rush. The brave ninja paddled the boat to the islands, oddly enough, there was a dock on the shore of a small island in the middle of the island chain. So there must be people on these islands. Or at least there must have been people on the islands at some point.

Garu stepped onto the islands and started exploring. But as Garu was taking a look around. He thought he heard what sounded like talking.

He decided to be stealthy when going to investigate. He didn't know if these people would be safe or not.

Garu hid in a nearby bush. But when he peaked out to get a look at the source of the talking. What he saw truly terrified him!
