Endor: episode #14 The Storm and the Island
"Not
if we're careful," says Iot.
Walker,
running towards where he thinks Sky will be...can't find her. But, Sky managed to work herself by some
hatchet. She manages to free herself
from the chains holding her hands.
"Hurried
work," thought Sky, "I'm lucky Iot was careless with her work."
Sky notices
a hatchet and grabs it and cuts the one holding her feet. She is just freed at the same moment that
Walker appears in the doorway. Sky runs
to him.
"Where are
Id and Iot?"
Walker says, "Are you all right?"
"Yes,
Walker, I'm fine. There's no time to
explain. We've got to find Id and
Iot."
And she
really was okay. Walker runs with Sky
back to the controls.
"Fist we got
to make sure we stay out of the rapids. Got to alter our course a little," states Walker.
"Are you sure we'll be okay?" asks Sky.
"Of course, I'm a top-rate seaman. I'll get us out of this!"
But there is a not of worry and concern in
his voice as he says this. Walker along
with Jed's help manages go get the ship out and away from the rapids
safely. The two rafts are pulled along
with it. Id and Iot now realize their
rafts work...but they can't control them. They are pulled and yanked along a current. Walker looks at one of the people on the ship.
"Go and see
if you can spot land anywhere. I'm
going to try to shipwreck us somewhere before we get ourselves killed out
here. This storm is only getting
worse."
Suddenly they are rocked by the biggest wave,
yet. They are getting pulled further and further off course by the storm.
Sky says,
"We're totally off course aren't we, Walker?"
Walker turns to Sky for the slightest
moment...as much time as he can.
"Yep," he confirms.
The person whom Walker sent out comes
back.
"Sir, there
is land up ahead."
Walker says, "Good."
And he aims right for it. They crash onto the land and the ship is
thrown 20 feet into the air, landing on the beach. The rafts too are thrown. Id and Iot are still alive. They
were clinging to the rafts for their lives! Walker, I, Jed, and Sky all descend the ship, followed by all the
others, except Id and Iot.
Walker
calls, "Is everyone all right?"
Everyone is. No one has been injured, lost, or killed.
"Good."
Walker turns
to Sky.
"Now please
tell me what happened on the ship."
Sky looks weary.
"Id....Iot...they
tricked us into leaving early. Iot
knocked me out and tied me up.... but they failed. They are now no better off then us. Look.... there they are!"
She points
to where the rafts are half buried in the sand. There is a mountain nearby. Walker and Jed run after Id and Iot as they run from their rafts. Walker soon catches up with them since they
are fat and slow. Walker jumps on Id,
pinning him. Seeing what happened to
her brother, Iot starts to run up the mountain.
Jed says, "You better come back before you're eaten."
Iot somehow
managed to hang on to that club, takes it out, and runs at Walker. She runs at him. She brings her club down on him, knocking him out. She grabs Id's hand and starts to run with
him up the mountain. Not too far up,
less then halfway...a creature with tentacles comes out of the sand and grabs
Id and Iot. Sky sees all this and runs
to save them, even thought they are evil. She still has that hatchet. She
knows she should aim for the eyes. But
as she approaches it, a tentacle grabs her...and....
Until next time!
