Love at Sea

Chapter Six : Knowing You Better
They stopped to take a break near a lake in the island. Sophia starred at Irvine intensly everytime he
wasn't looking. And Irvine did the same, until Sophia broke the silence....
"So, do you want to go back or we'll continue touring the island?" Sophia asked, hoping to start a
conversation.
Something keeps telling him to stay with her alone. But, he didn't gave in the thought, "We'd better go
back...Moonbay and the others must be looking for us.....Come on!".
Sophia looked at the water and saw her reflection, "It's pretty isnt' it?". Talking about the water.
Irvine walked up to her, "Yeah it's pretty". Thinking of Sophia.
Sophia sighed and stood up, "Ok let's go. They might be looking for us". Feeling sad they only had a short
time to be together.
Sophia walked up to the Lightning Saix, waiting for Irvine to follow. He stood there starring at the lake....
he looked at Sophia and smiled. Sophia wondered why he was smiling.
"What?" Sophia asked, confusingly.
"I've changed my mind, why don't we continue? I saw a waterfall near here" Irvine said, walking up to her.
"Waterfall? What's a waterfall?" Sophia asked, climbing up the zoid.
Irvine looked dumbfounded, "You don't know what a waterfall is?? You've gotta be joking me!".
"I don't know ok! From where I come from there's water everywhere and there's a big castle-" Sophia
covred her mouth after realizing what she have said.
"Water everywhere??? Castle???....I get it! A sand castle!" Irvine said, not getting the picture.
Sophia sweatdropped and sat back down on his lap, "Yeah...a sand castle". 'What ever that is' she thought.
"Well, it'll take us only 5 minutes to get to the waterfall," he smiled as he made the zoid run towards their
destination. "A waterfall is a river water falling over a steep place".
"Hmm, that's a waterfall..."
"Yup. Nature's creation".
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Sophia said, as she looked directly to colorful buttons in front of her.
"Uh, yeah sure..." he replied keeping his vision to where he was going.
"Why, do you always wear that red thing around your head and that thing on your left eye? It bothers me",
Sophia said still starring in awe at the buttons. "It's not like it makes you look good, but-".
"The red thing on my head is called a bandana and the thing on my left eye is an eyepatch which can also
be a mini telescope. And I don't know, why I wear them" he replied simply.
Sophia looked at him, "Come on...you can tell me anything".
"I just feel like it ok? Can we leave that topic out now?", he replied annoyed.
"Fine,....oh my god! Is that the waterfall you were telling me about??" she said, as she spotted a rainbow
over some tree's and water falling.
"Yup, it's really great! Ok we'll stop here and see for ourselves" he said as he stopped the zoid a few feet
away from the waterfall.
They hopped out of the zoid and walked towards the fall. Sophia was walking fast excited to dive in the
clear clean water of the waterfall with Irvine trailing behind with his hands behind his head. She sat at the
edge of the fall, getting a handfull of water and carefully drank trying not to get her legs wet or else it'll
turn into her red, shiny, scaled tail.
Irvine sat beside her and took off his bandana and eye patch. "You know animals drink and take a bath
here,...oh and did I mention they also pee here?".
Sophia coughed and wiped her hand with her shirt. "Why didn't you said it earlier!".
Irvine laughed, "Ok, ok I'm sorry. My fault". Irvine glanced at Sophia and saw her starring at him. "What? Do
I have something on my face??", he looked at his reflection in the water.
"No, but you took off your...your bandana and eyepatch. Why?", Sophia eyed his curiously.
Irvine sighed, "Well, I don't feel like wearing them anymore. That's all, I didn't do it for anyone". Trying to
avoid letting Sophia know that she was the reason he took his eyepatch and bandana off.
Sophia smiled, "Well, I think you look great without it".
Irvine blushed a little, "You...you think so?", he asked nervously.
Sophia nodded, "Of course!".
They sat there all morning talking about their,...actually it's Irvine's life. (A/N:Sophia is lying that she forgot
everything, ok?). How his family died. How he himself became a loner and he met Van, Fiona, Zeek and
Moonbay. And, about Moonbay's ex-boyfriend (A/N:You remember the guy who is filthy rich and whenever
he smiles his teeth shines? I think it's...Macman???), he also told her about Raven, Prozen, Hiltz, Reese and
the wars that happened a long time ago. While, Sophia is having a great time back at Atlantia everything
isn't going well........
"Where is she?! I demand to know!!" a darked hair man with a violet tail, and amber eyes shouted at the
sisters of Sophia.
"We told you she's not here!! Why are you here anyway?!" the eldest said, trying to get in Sophia's room.
"No! I know she's in there! Sophia come out this instant!! It's none of your business what I'm here for" he
yelled once more.
"Shit you Sly! We told you she's not here and doesn't want you back!! Not after what you've done to her!!"
the second eldest said, helping the older sister.
"What's happening in here?!" the King came in. At the sight of that voilet tail, "Sly Ringham! What are you
doing here?!".
Sly stopped and turned to see the King a few feet away, "I came here to see Sophia. Not you, my Lord. I
didn't mean to cause trouble but, I need to see Sophia right away!".
"She is not here and even if she is here she does not want to see you" the King said calmly.
"If she is not here, then why don't your daughters let me come into her room?".
"Sophia told us after you left years ago, if you ever come back. And she's not here, never ever let you come
set a tail into her room ever!!" the sisters yelled the same time.
"Well, where is she then?" he asked, anger rising.
"Wouldn't you like to know!!" the second eldest said, crossing her arms.
"I know where she have gone... to the surface am I right, my Lord?" Sly flashed an evil smile.
The King turned his back, "I suggest you leave and never show your face ever again or would you like my
gaurds to escort you out?".
"Fine. I'll go but, I'll be back with Sophia beside me! Hahahahahahaha!!" he swam away and disappeared.
The sisters swam to their father, "Father? Is it true that Sophia is...at the surface?".
He turned to look at his beautiful daugthers, "Yes, it's true. She said she have found the one".
"Oh no! So, that means...Sly is going after Sophia!".
"I don't think so. Without my power how can he change his tail into feet? Don't worry daughters, he won't
be able to find her".
"I hope so, father".
"Hey! Has anyone seen Sophia? It's lunch time already", Moonbay asked as she walked out the tent changed
in her summer time outfit.
"Yeah, Irvine's gone and his Lightning Saix is gone too", Van said, poking his head in their tent to check if
they're inside.
"I think I saw the Lightning Saix walked away, an hour ago", Fiona said as she tried to convince Zeek to
wear the pink shirt she made just for Zeek. "Oh come on Zeek! Hey come back here!". She ran after Zeek
and snuck behind Van.
"Uh Fiona?...I don't think Zeek likes the color pink" Van said as he scratched his head and flashed a grin.
"Hmm, I'll go and contact them", Thomas went to his Dibison. "Beek, contact Irvine's Lightning Saix asap!".
"Oh, if you contact them! Tell them to come back Herman and O'Connell's going to pick us up!" Moonbay
said, as she walked back in the tent to fix their things.
Irvine heard Thomas speaking so, he excused himself and walked back to his zoid and went back to get his
eyepatch and bandana. He pressed a blue button and then, Thomas' face came on screen.
"Hey! Where are you?! Is Sophia with you?! She's missing!" Thomas yelled infront of him.
Irvine put his hands infront of him, "Hey chill man! She's with me, we're here at the waterfall".
Thomas smiled evily, "Ooh, You guys making out??" he said in a teasing tone.
Irvine blushed, "Hey! No we weren't! I took her to a tour around the island, that's all!" he replied angrily.
"If I didn't know better you took her there, for you guys to be alone..." Thomas said, in a girlish tone.
Irvine held his fist in his face, just when Sophia showed up.
"Oh, hi there Thomas!" Sophia said waving her hands, as she sat on Irvine's lap.
Thomas' jaw dropped and his eyes widened, "Ooh Irvine you....wolf you! Hahahahaha!!".
Irvine give up, "Just shut up Thomas! We weren't doing anything wrong!".
Sophia looked at Thomas then at Irvine confusingly. 'What are they talking about??' she thought.
"Hahahahahaha! Anyway, Moonbay said to come back here Herman and O'Connell is going to pick us up!
Hahahahaha!! Over and hahahahaha out! Hahahahahaha!" and with that his laughing face was gone.
"Hey! Thomas is gone!" Sophia said sadly.
"We'd better go back, the Coronel's going to pick us up and go to New Helic City. I remember Moonbay
saying first eat lunch, then check in a fancy hotel with 2 rooms and shop all afternoon". 'I don't like her tone
when she said ALL AFTERNOON' Irvine thought.
"And who are the Coronel's? And what is a hotel?" Sophia asked innocently, while resting her head on his
shoulder.
Irvine stiffen up when Sophia snuggled , "Uh...".
Sophia noticed and removed her head ashamed she did that without Irvine's permission, "Sorry".
"Huh?? Uh, oh...it's ok. If you are tired just rest your head....I don't...mind" Irvine said, smiling.
Sophia smiled back, "Thanks...you can be such a caring person for a guy who wants only money".
"Hey! I can also be a softy......sometimes!" Irvine replied, playfully.
