Life of a Castaway (Book 2)
Happy New Year's Eve everybody!
Sky: Yeah!
Me: He's happy. Better savor this moment *Takes out a camera to which Sky scowls, shaking his head.* Oh well it was worth a shot. Enjoy the show!
Sky: It's not a show!
Me: You know what I mean!
Sky's Pov
I couldn't believe it. Deadlox wasn't dead. Then why did Erin say... "Why did you say Ty was dead?" "H-he's an impostor!" She said. "No I'm not! Adam, please listen to me." He said, and I was looking back and forth. Wait, the headphones. "Press the green part of your right headphone." I said, and he did. The headphones transformed into a cube, and then back to the original state. "YOU RUIN EVERYTHING!"Erin screamed, and charged at Deadlox, he quickly pulled out a sword, and the two got into a sword fight.
"Think Adam, think." I looked around, and absolutely nothing that could help me. Well, looks like I'm going for the dangerous approach. "BREEEEEEEE!" I said, and started to hit Erin with the only thing I had that was close to a weapon. A stick. I guess I never thought that while I was at my friend's funeral, I would find out that he was actually alive, and Erin had lied about the whole thing. "Stop!" She said, but I still continued.
Erin managed to wiggle away, and disappeared under the water.
"Well that...happened." I said, and Deadlox laughed weakly. "Yeah." He replied, and was looking intently at this headphones. "So that's how they work." He said. "Why didn't you tell me these were that cool?" "I don't know." I said, and Deadlox looked at me. "Yes you do." "I honestly don't!" I said, and Deadlox sighed. "Okay, okay I give up." He said. "Ty!" Logan said, and tackled the poor guy. "I missed you too." Deadlox said, his voice muffled. When Logan let go of him, Deadlox suddenly stood up.
"Enderlox! I know what happened to him! Ethan I need you!" He said, and started to drag Ethan away. Help me. Ethan mouthed, than disappeared into the base.
Deadlox's Pov
"Alright, so Erin told me that Enderlox had, had squid DNA injected into him." I said, while Ethan quickly wrote it down. "I have all I need." He wrote down. "I can fix this, and it should be fairly easy." "What are you going to do?" I asked. "I'm going to eject the squid DNA out of his system." Ethan wrote down, and pulled out a large needle. "Is it going to hurt him?" I asked. "He won't feel anything. From the looks of it he's in a coma." Ethan wrote, and inserted the needle into his arm. "How will you know that you're getting the squid DNA?" "One part of his arm is darker than the rest of his arm, so that is where the DNA is going to be." He pulled on the push-pull thing at the top, and dark blue blood filled the needle.
"That should do it." "What'd I miss?" Enderlox said, and looked around. "Why am I in the medical room?" He asked. I told him why. "How long was I out, and what happened?" "A few hours. Nothing much happened." Except being hit upside the head, waking up in a room, dangling from the ceiling. Someone trying to pretend you're dead, and then getting in a sword fight with me. Other than that, nothing much. "What about Erin?" He asked. "What about her?" "She was the one that shot me with an arrow."
"We chased her off." I said. "I thought you said nothing much happened." He said. "Well considering what we're going through now, it's not as crazy or unexpected as compared to other things." I said. Enderlox sat up, and winced. "Do you want some ice?" I asked, and he shook his head. "I'm good." He said, and left the room. I sighed. "What's wrong?" Ethan wrote. "I can't believe I didn't tell him." I replied. "Why didn't you tell him?" "He would blame himself, and I hate it when he blames himself for things he couldn't have prevented."
I stood up, and started to walk out the door when I felt a hand on my shoulder. "You need to tell Enderlox about this, or he'll resent you for it." "I will." "Promise?" "Promise." Then there was a crashing sound. "Just not at the moment." I said, and ran out.
I smell squid sabotage.
Sky: It smells rather fishy *Laughs at his own terrible joke.*
Me: No one found that funny.
Sky: I know.
Me: I wonder what's going to happen.
Sky: Yeah.
Me: To be continued!
