Endor:  episode #12 Up until the Storm

          "Look out everyone, here we come!" says Walker.

 And they are off and running.  For the first half of the trip, you must wait.  So, until next time! 

"Just look at this, Walker.  It's perfect!"

  He looks at her and smiles. 

Walker says, "I guess Id and Iot really knew what they were talking about.  It's in my mind to go and thank them!"

 Sky was thinking.  She liked Walker a lot and was hoping he felt the same way about her, but he'd never dare to ask him!

 "I wish he would purpose to me, though it's probably in vain.  He probably doesn't feel that way about me.  Still something is bothering him.  I can only hope," she thought.

 "Walker?"  Prompts Sky.

  "Yes, my dear?"

 She stands there by the side of the ship and he is looking...thinking very hard.

 "Something is bothering you, isn't it?  I can tell.  It's the same thing that was bothering you the day of the meeting, isn't it?  Tell me what it is."

  Walker looks a little humored by it. 

"Sky, it's just that if anything happens, it'll be all my fault," says Walker.

 "You think something's going to go wrong?"

 "No," answers Walker, "...but it could."

  Sky is disappointed.  She was hoping

Walker would purpose to her.  At the same time, Jed and I are talking.  I wants to bring back encouraging info. About Walker to Sky.

 "Jed, can I ask you something?"

  Jed says, "Of course, my dear."

 I was also hoping Jed would purpose to her.

 I says, "have you noticed anything strange about Walker lately?"

  "What do you mean?"

 "Oh, I don't know...just have you?"

 "Yes," says Jed, "a matter of fact I have.  I think he is out to get us." 

I says, "Walker.  What are you talking about?"

  "He's going to kill us all.  We ought to act on something."

 I says, "I don't think so.  Do you have any evidence against him?"

  "Yes," says Jed.  "I do.  He's always with Sky."

  "So, I'm always with you."

  "That's different, it's a conspiracy, and they're out to get us.  I should have been the one in charge of this trip.  He doesn't know how to handle it.  He just can't." 

I says, "You're jealous just because you didn't get picked to lead this trip.

  "No," says Jed.  "I'm warning you, there is something going on.  Don't forget that Walker and Sky didn't really want to leave to early.  I could tell.  They wanted to leave at the normal time so we would all die.  Luckily, their plan didn't work thanks to Id and Iot.  We had best watch Sky and Walker carefully.  They might try turning back themselves, leaving us to die."

 "I see," says I. 

Now, Id looked at Iot.  

"Let's see, in 6 minutes we will hit the storm!"

"Yes," says Iot.

 "And in six minutes we will be in the rapids!  I best go and get the rafts so we're prepared." 

          "HURRY, Iot.  You don't have much time."

 "Won't take me long."

 With that, Iot turns to leave and retrieve the rafts Id had made not all that long ago.  She picks up a club just in case anyone gives her any problems.  Iot carefully make her way to where Id had hidden them.  She accidentally knocks over a bucket of nails.  Sky and Walker are close by.

 "Walker, did you hear that?"

 "Yeah, I did.  I'm sure it's nothing."

  Sky doesn't look convinced.

  "I'm going to check it out.  I'll be right back."

 "Okay, Sky I'll just stay right here."

 Sky turns to leave. 

"Oh, and Sky, be careful.  I love you!"

 Sky smiles and says, "Don't worry, I will." 

With that, Sky turned and left to see who or what had caused that noise...Iot was now just reaching for a raft when she heard something behind her.  She thought it might be Id.  She gasped.  It was Sky. 

"What do you think you are doing?" demanded Sky.

 "Hold it right there," says Iot. 

                                                Until next time!

What will happen to Sky?  Do Id and Iot escape?  And what about the storm?  Find out later.
