Chapter 2
Preperation
The afternoon sun brought the heat to Zeus' Island. After lunch, Fox, Wolf, and Bill went
to the beach docks. "Well...." said Bill. "What do we do now?"
"How about we look for the materials?" suggested Wolf.
"Alright!" said Fox getting up. "Let's go!"
Fox pointed to the sky and paused for a few minutes. "Uhh...what do we need to get?" said
Bill.
Fox hesitated, then put his hand down. "Well," said Fox, "we...we should get the important
stuff that a boat needs!"
"Like what?" asked Wolf.
"We'll need some...wood," said Fox. "some.... Well...."
"Lets ask Falco." said Bill.
"Well, okay." said Fox, "Let's go right now."
"Okay." said Wolf.
"I don't wanna race though," said Bill, "we just ate."
"Okay." said Fox.
The group started to walk through the beach sands and looking at the familiar rock
formations as the passed by. Then, one rock formation caught their eyes. This was obviously was
something they had never seen. The rocks made a strange form of a man. Like as though it were a
statue or something. The figure looked as though it were trying to reach the sky only to be
attatched to the rocky wall.
"That's a weird rock," said Wolf.
"I've never seen that beofore," said Fox, "Looks freaky!"
"The villagers said something about strange people coming and doing freaky things." said
Bill.
Fox shook his head. "A sculpture probably made it or something...." said Fox dismissing
the rock formation.
Soon, the three boys came to the entrance of a town. The sign above them read: 'Kilika
Port.' The houses were all tall with white walls and blue roofs with chimenys that were not
puffing smoke. This was one of the five towns on Zeus' Island. There was also a long wooden
dock at the edge of the town going into the ocean water.
There are always much bustling town people at this time of the day. "There he is!" said
Wolf pointing in the distance.
Indeed, there was Falco who was walking with a cart full of supplies. His eye then just
caught the three boys standing at the entrance of town. He stopped and waved at them to come
down. The group started for Falco and his large wooden cart. "What's up?" asked Falco in
surprise.
"Well," said Bill, "we have no idea what to get for the boat."
Falco looked at his cart and looked at the boys again. "Well," said Falco, "there is
something I need."
Fox grinned. "What is it?" he asked.
"Food," said Falco, "plenty of it. We're gonna get hungry while we are sailing the whole
world."
"How much food?" asked Wolf.
"Well," said Falco, "a package of meat can feed four. So I suggest we get about...."
Falco hesitated for a few minutes. "Ten packs should be well enough." added Falco.
"Okay!" said Fox.
There was no noise except for the background of towns people. "Uh...." said Wolf. "Where
are we gonna get the food at?"
Fox was silent. He scratched his head thinking of a plan. "Oh!" said Fox suddenly. "I
know! We can get Krystal to sneak some food out of the orphanage."
"Who?" asked Falco.
"Long story," said Bill, "but we'll get it real soon!"
"We'll be back!" said Fox running toward the town entrance with Bill and Wolf following
him.
"Maybe we can leave by tomorrow!" said Falco in delight.
Krystal was sitting at the docks in front of the orphanage with her bare feet in the ocean
water and was humming a song. Just at that moment, Fox, Bill, and Wolf came back panting for air
and went up to Krystal. "Hey, Krystal?" said Fox getting Krystal's attention.
Krystal stopped humming and faced Fox. "Yeah?" she asked.
"Since you're coming with us on our adventure," started Fox, "we would like it if you could
help us."
"Well," said Krystal, "sure! What is it?"
"It's gonna be a little tough, but we think you can handle it." said Bill.
"We need you to go into the house kitchen and grab ten backs of meat." said Fox.
"Okay." said Krystal getting up. "Why?"
"We'll need something to eat while we're sailing." said Wolf.
"Okay," said Krystal. "I'll do it."
Krystal started to run toward the large house of the orphanage. "I'll be right back!" yelled
Krystal as she ran.
Bill sat down on the wooden dock while Fox and Wolf talked. "Do you think she'll make it
back with the food?" asked Wolf.
"Of course!" said Fox reassuringly. "I know Krystal really well. She never fails when I
make a promise to her."
"I hope you're right about that." said Wolf.
A few minutes had passed, still no sign of Krystal. "What's taking her?" said Bill
desperately.
"Here I am!" yelled the voice of Krystal.
Krystal was running with small, white packages being held in her arms. Fox ran up to her
and helpped her with the packages. Fox counted each of the packages quickly. "Wow," said Fox,
"All ten packages are here."
Krystal giggled. "See?" she said. "Now, when do we leave?"
"We...uh...don't know." said Bill.
Bill and Wolf grabbed the rest of the meat. "Stay here for a few minutes," instructed Fox,
"we gotta give these to Falco. He'll tell us when we leave."
"Okay." said Krystal.
The boys ran back out into the wilds of the island. Within minutes of running, they were
already back to Kilika Port. Falco stood at the entrance and grinned as he saw the three boys
with the meat. "Alright!" said Falco. "I knew you'd pull through!"
"So," said Wolf, "when do we leave?"
"Tomorrow!" said Falco putting the meat in his cart.
"TOMORROW?" said Wolf and Fox together. "Why so soon?"
"I just need to get off of this island right away!" said Falco. "I'll build the boat over
night and tomorrow you can come and we can set sail."
"What time?" asked Bill.
"Seven O'clock." said Falco. "Not a moment sooner! Understand?"
Everyone nodded their heads. "Okay," said Falco, "see you all tomorrow!"
