The group continued through the very last part of the gigantic forest, stumbling occasionaly (Amerie especially) until finally they came to the shore. The golden white sands looked so inviting that they had the urge to jump straight on to them and just lie there. This is what Addie did.
'Yaaaaay! We're here!' She cried, then jumped on to the sand, rolling around with joy.
'Wow... do we really have to tell people we're related to her?' Sighed Siobhan.
'Yes!' Said Grace, 'Although perhaps if someone walks past right now we'll give your idea a try'.
The group moved down towards the sea which they had been searching for, Amerie once again slipping on the sands.
'Seriously, how do you slip on sand when you're only walking?' Laughed Bethany helping her up.
'It's because... because... because im cool okay!' Laughed Amerie, frantically brushing the sand of herself.
Emilese looked relieved to be there. 'Okay people, it's official, after all that, if i ever see another tree again... I will scream' She said.
'I have a question' Said Siobhan, 'If this is the Great Sea, then where the docks for the boats to travel across it?'
Ribbentrop laughed, 'That can be answered easily! We are in fact, on an island of sorts, an' the only way to reach it is by air!'
'Oh I see!' Siobhan smiled, 'Fair enough then'.
Suddenly Reepicheep shouted from just in front of the waves, near a rock gathering. 'I have found a boy! Is this the one you saw Addie?' He jumped down from the jagged edge of the rock he had been balancing on.
The group came rushing over, 'Yes! Yes that's him! He's awfully skinny isn't he?' Said Addie.
'If i'm bein' honest, you should've already knew that' Smiled Ribbentrop, causing Addie to blush a deep crimson.
The others stared at the unconcious figure for awhile, taking in his medium length brown hair, his quite long nose and his skinny frame.
'So, how do we wake him?' Asked Bethany.
'Lets throw some water over him!' Suggested Amerie.
The others stared at her. 'Amerie...' Started Grace, 'He's lying in water'
Amerie opened and shut her mouth again, then stood still, suddenly finding an interest in a lone twig lying on the sand.
'Right... any more bright ideas?' Muttered Reepicheep, his tail flicking impatiently.
Siobhan kicked the boy in his head. Hard. He groaned. 'Well, that did the trick!' She laughed while the others stared in amazement.
The boy opened his eyes slowly, which were a dark brown colour, then looked up at his new arrivals.
'Where... where am I?' He asked, 'Who are you people? You're not the rainbow people! Or the blue suquirrels for that matter...'
The grouped stared open mouthed at his short speech. 'Well... no we're not, but we just woke you up because... well we'll explain soon, I promise! Can you get up?' Said Siobhan.
'Yeah I think so...' Groaned the boy as he got up, wincing from pain.
'I say my dear boy, what is your name?' Asked Reepicheep politely.
'My name is... AHHH!' The boy yelled, seeing who had spoken to him, 'You're not supposed to talk!'
'Oh, well, you're not SUPPOSED to be washed up on the shore having just woke up but you are!' Argued Reepicheep.
'He... He's a...' Stuttered the boy.
'Yes, we know, never mind that! What's your name?' Asked Amerie.
'I... It's... Ermmm... I don't know!' Said the boy, 'I don't know how i got here, or where i am, or who you are, or why a mouse just spoke to me, or anything right now! Oh no help me!' He cried.
'Oh no... he's got amnesia!' Said Ribbentrop.
'What does that mean again? Asked Addie, 'I forgot'
'That's ironic' Muttered Emilese.
'It means you lose your memory' Explained Ribbentrop.
'Well, there's really not much we can do right now apart from take him somewhere, Let's continue down the shore until we find a village or something similar' Said Peter, who hadn't spoke much since arriving suprisingly.
'Alright then, let's go!' Said Ribbentrop.
The boy followed them down the shore, tripping an awful lot.
Suddenly, A tree was flung straight past them and into the sea. Emilese screamed.
'Well she wasn't lying!' Said Siobhan.
'Who cares?' Snapped Reepicheep, 'Im not sure if you notice, but a TREE just flew past our path!'
The group looked towards where the tree had come from, towards the forest and there stood a giant.
'Wow!' Shouted Addie, 'It's so big!'
'Hence the name' Muttered Reepicheep, drawing his sword as he did so.
'Hello!' Boomed the giant loudly, who, it became clear, was in fact a female. 'I heard you talking! My name is Siwelia! I thought you might like a lift getting to the nearest village? It's quite a while away you know!' She smiled.
'That depends wat you mean by lift...' Said Peter.
'I'll just pick you all up! You'll all fit on my shoulders, trust me you'll be safe! Hop on!' Grinned Siwelia.
'Alright then, lets go guys!' Said Ribbentrop, steeping into the giants open palm.
'Oh great, I also don't know why a giant is helping us!' Moaned The boy.
'Same' Laughed Amerie, 'What are we going to call you then?'
Bethany looked at a shell stuck in the boys hair, then took it out, causing him to jump a little. 'Sheldon!' She shouted suddenly.
'Oh yes that's good!' Said Siobhan grinning.
'Alright then, hello girls my name is Sheldon, i'm cold and tired and currently getting a lift to civilisation off a giant!' Laughed Sheldon.
The group laughed as they made their way to the village, jumping occasionaly when Siwelia spoke.
