"It's been an hour, and we still have no idea where we are!" yelled Joey. "I can't take it anymore!"
"Relax, Joey," said Yugi, looking up from the wheel. "You've got to be patient! Remember, we were about two hours from the dock when the fog appeared, and I don't know how far we've drifted from there, so it may take us as long as three hours to get back."
"Three hours! I'll never make it!" groaned Joey.
"Chill out, man!" said Tristan. "I mean, there's not much else we can do, and getting upset won't help at all! Besides, we haven't even opened the cheese puffs yet!"
"Oh yeah, you're right!" exclaimed Joey, his face suddenly brightening. "Cheese puffs, here I come!"
"That sure got him up and moving!" said Tea.
"You know it!" replied Tristan. "Just look at him go! He'll be done in ten minutes, tops."
"No, I think it should take him at least half an hour," said Tea.
"I take it you've never seen Joey eat cheese puffs before."
"You're right, but that's a pretty big bag."
"I've seen Joey down an even bigger bag of pretzels in fifteen minutes. Those cheese puffs don't stand a chance."
"Mmmm, cheese puffs!" exclaimed Joey as he shoved another handful into his mouth. "Hey! They're gone! Alright, who's been eating my cheese puffs?"
"Joey, we just saw you stuff a whole bag in your face!" said Tristan.
"Oh, I'm sure! Hey . . ." he gave Tristan a suspicious look. "So you're the one who stole my cheese puffs!"
"Uh-oh," said Tristan, as he took off.
"Come back here you puff-stealer!" yelled Joey as he chased Tristan around the mast.
"Ha! You'll never catch me!" taunted Tristan. He made a face at Joey who tried, unsuccessfully, to tackle his friend.
"Aww, man!" said Joey as his face collided with the wooden deck. "First my cheese puffs are gone, and now this!"
"And Tristan is the winner!" said Tristan, prancing around victoriously with a cheesy grin on his face.
"Whaddya mean, winner?!" yelled Joey, tripping Tristan.
"Hey! I was tryin' to impress Serenity!" said Tristan. "Why'd ya have to ruin it for me?!"
"Well in case you haven't noticed, Serenity's not even payin' attention!"
The disappointed Tristan looked frantically around, but his friend was right. Serenity, who had been staring at the horizon for most of the time, noticed two figures standing on a clump of rocks. One was bigger than the other, and if the bigger one hadn't been pacing back and forth, she wouldn't have even noticed them. Serenity walked up to Yugi, who was currently getting his first lesson from Yami in boat-steering.
"Yugi, do you see that small group of rocks over on the left?" she asked.
"Yeah, why?" said Yugi.
"I think there're two people on it."
That's all for now. Bet you know who they are ^_^ !!! Oops! Almost forgot to remind you all to review!
