Chapter 6: The Shadow.
Icetea *: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Icetea * runs to Java Joe screaming, who is talking to Bob and Bangle and the crazy little Gyroid)
Java Joe: Icetea *! What happened to you?!?!?!?!?
Icetea *: I saw.... I saw....
Bangle: What is it?
Gyroid: Hoo hoo hee, tell us!
All: Be quiet Gyroid!
Icetea *: ... It was a big... shadow... it took a bite out of Admiral's house...
(Icetea * points to Admiral's house on the horizon, which certainly does have a huge chunk off)
Bob: WHAT?!?!??!?!?!?! Admiral isn't home, what will happen when he sees this?
Gyroid: He he yeh, he'll be mad arright! He he yeh!
All: Stop that!
Java Joe: Tell us more.
Icetea *: It started when I was... walking to Admiral to give him Bangle's borrowed camera, when I decided to... take a quick walk to the beach. I saw a big... dripping creature come out of the ocean, but it was all black and I couldn't see its face.
Bangle: Did you deliver the camera?
Icetea *: (pulls camera out) No actually, I didn't stop by to do it, the creature was rushing towards Admiral's house so I had to run as fast as I could to escape...
Gyroid: (sings) Hee hee hoo, Icetea * still has the cameraaaaa...
All: Nooooo! Stop it Gyroid!
Bangle: Well let me give him the camera then!!!
(Icetea * gives camera to Bangle reluctantly)
(Bangle sets off to Admiral's house)
Bangle: Waaa! Admiral is going to be soooooooooo mad when he sees this!!! (*thinks* At least it's some good publicity for Tom Nooky...)
(Creature, who was hiding behind the house, pops out)
Shadow: RRRRRRAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!
Bangle: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
(Bangle runs back to the group)
Bangle: *pant pant* Nobody can go NEAR Admiral's house without this shadow creature coming out and scaring them! What will Admiral do? He won't be able to sleep safely at night!
Java Joe: Do you think I could have him stay at my place until the shadow creature goes away?
Icetea *: You can do that to help us, but how will we get rid of it?
All: Hmm.....
Gyroid: Hoo hoo hee, let's find the shadow and burn him down!
All: You can't burn shadows Gyroid, stop now!
Gyroid: Awww...
Later...
Admiral: This bed is too soft, Java Joe. It sways back and forth and I can't sleep properly!
Java Joe: You'll have to do with it unless you want to sleep in my bed which isn't an option actually.
Admiral: Well, OK....
(Admiral falls asleep)
Java Joe: (*thinks* Wow, this guy is hard to get along with! He complained at dinner, dessert, the bed, everything! What to do? I hope Icetea * finds that shadow thing and takes him away soon...)
(Java Joe falls asleep in thought)
