The next day, the group had a breakfest of fresh fruits, berries, and anything that Ash had cooked. Even though Cilan was a bit domasticated and tame, he still retained his monkey diet with human food mixed in. While the others were busy collecting the thinks he lieked to eat, Cilan was in a bit of a daydream... he was thinking of a way to repay his friends and mate for what they did for him yesterday. "Hey Sarukki, you finished with breakfest?" Ash asked. The monkey snapped out of it and continued to eat. What was he gonna do? It was their last day in the pardise, cause Elena had spotted the ship port and they really needed to get a move on.
Then it clicked! He knew what he had to do, but for it to work he needed to swipe Ash's hat when the surprise was ready. He then rushed off to prepare, while the others were packing up their things. It wasn't long before Iris noticed he was missing... and feared the worse. "Oh no... not again...! Guys, Cilan's missing!" "Where did he go?" the white haired teen wondered. Ash then stepped in. "He was here a moment ago... hmm... maybe hes become attached to this place... and doesn't want to leave..." "But how are we suppose to get him back to normal?!" the purple monkey screeched, worried about her boyfriend. "We'll just have to break the news to him..." Elena says.
"Lets go find him then." the raven haired teen says, but soon comes face to face with who he was looking for. "That was quick..." he mutters, but continues. "Where have you been? We were about to send a search party!" "Yeah, don't scare us liek that!" Elena chimed in. Cilan didn't respond. He just sat there with a small smile on his face; tail swaying back and forth calmly. Then in a swift motion, he swipes Ash's hat and runs off a few feet to see if his friend will give chase. "Sarukki..." Ash growled going after him. Elena and Iris soon give chase as well wondering if Cilan has gone coo-coo.
Soon they all reach a clearing, and a decorated rock with flower leis all around. There was also much fruit and berries. Whats going on? Cilan then started talking in monkey chatter, to which only Iris could understand. "What'd he say?" Ash and Elena asked in unison. "He said; 'Thank you for helping me get better. This is for you all and I hope you enjoy'" Iris translated. Cilan then nodded that she was right and walked over to Ash to give his hat back, which wasn't wet with slobber or dirty. "You wore it this time, didn't you?" The monkey only nods. Ash then pets him, casing Cilan to purr.
Elena then broke the silance. "Well, Sarukki planned this party for us, so lets have a bit of fun before we go!" Everyone agreed to this and enjoyed themselves.
Later found our heroes standing in front of the ship they needed to bored, however there was one problem... there was a strict no animals onbored rule, unless put in a pet carrier with identifaction or is a service animal. "Great... what do we do now?" the white haired teen mutters. "Well, Iris can sneak on by saying shes a cosplayer but as for Sarukki... I really hate to do this..." Ash deduces a bit regretfully. Cilan was confused but it didn't last long when he was suddenly put in a pet carrier with a collar around his neck. Judging by the amout of sceeching and chattering, he didn't liek being in there... and whats worse he had to go with the rest of the pets to the cargo hold! Not good... that only angered him, well that and being seperated from his love...
Meanwhile, the others were shown to their room, which was first class. Though they were happy to be on their quest once more, they couldn't help but worry about Cilan... wondering if he was ok...
Well, meanwhile with him, it was needless to say once the ship pulled out of port and hit a few rough torrents, his pet carrier was tossed about, liek a boat about to be shipwreaked. "THIS SHIP IS ROCKING ME LIEK A HURRICANE!" he screeched. "Pipe down, monkey boy... your owners should've gave you a sleeping pill..." a dog snorted at him. "Screw you, I'm getting outta here!" Cilan responded, giving the dog the finger. "Furball..." the dog muttered, before going back to sleep.
With one more rough torrent, Cilan's pet carrier opened and he tumbled out. "Free at last!" he cheered before going up to the deck. "Now where are they...?" the monkey then sniffed about trying to catch their scents, and did, but soon ran into trouble; for a tranquilizer dart zipped pass and just barely missed him. "Uh-oh... I'm getting that daja vu feeling..." he chattered in monkey language, and ran off to his friend's room.
Once there he banged on the door franicly, knowing the ship's crew was looking for him. Ash soon opened the door, surprised to see Cilan there. "Sarukki, what are you-?" he started but was cut off when the monkey entered, closed the door, and callapsed on the bed. "I take it he didn't liek the cargo hold much..." Elena said sweatdropping. Soon, Cilan was fast alseep. Ash sighed. "Well, lets just hope we don't get in trouble for having him up here with us..."
This was gonna be a loooooong trip to the Nebolus region...
