Duo stared at Tru.
NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO!
She was not a mind reader! No way in hell was she a mind reader.
He was jolted out of his horrified thoughts as the boat stopped.
"It's getting late." Joslyn said with a smile "We need to set up camp before we search"
*
Later as Tru went off to find fire wood Duo decided to put his mind at ease.
"Joslyn?"
"Yeah?"
"Is Tru a...um.... a mind reader?"
She stared at him.
"Forget it," he said quickly "I knew it was a stupid idea a-"
"Yes."
"...What?"
"Tru can read minds."
"But... that's no possible..."
"Maybe not in your time. It's even unusual here in this time, but there have been one or two people who have similar abilities. Even so... people don't feel... comfortable."
"I can't say I blame them."
"But you don't understand! She can't read all minds. S-"
"I read surface thoughts."
Duo and Joslyn both looked up to see Tru standing there, holding a bunch of sticks.
*
"Tru I-" Joslyn began
"It's okay Jos. I hinted Duo off to my abilities earlier."
"What are surface thoughts?" Duo asked
"People think things impulsively, or vaguely, sometimes they don't even know they do it. Those are the thoughts I read... that and really stupid people."
She smiled at Duo
"Hey!"
"Quit it you two." Joslyn commanded
"How did you get that ability?" Duo asked curiously
"I inherited it from my father. Along with a few other skills"
Duo was quiet. Then something hit him
"But then does Joslyn...."
Joslyn blushed
"Not really. At least not like Tru. I can swim really fast but that's about it."
"That must be useful."
"Sure is."
"Hey you guys. My scanner picked up a signal."
Tru, Joslyn and Duo jumped and screamed as Pix appeared.
"DON'T DO THAT!" They all yelled.
Pix ignored them. "It's 3.19 miles that way."
She pointed to the west and then vanished
Joslyn sighed. "Lets go."

Demi walked across the shore of the beach. Hannah ran behind her.
"I know she's on this island. She's somewhere. I WILL GET REVENGE!!!!"
Demi lamely attempted evil laughter. The aforementioned attempt was ruin when Hannah trotted over and yipped gleefully.
Demi stared at the dog
Hannah cocked her head to the side
Minutes passed
More minutes.
(My life is wasting away as we speak... La La La La La!)
Hannah walked away and Demi continued to stare at the spot. Hannah came back with a rubber ball.
"Good idea Hannah! We need to relax so we can find them."
She picked up the ball, spun and threw it.
I flew into a coconut tree bounced back and slammed Demi smack center in the forehead.
Demi hit the sand with a thud.
Hannah stared at the unconscious human.
Then walked over and curled up onto Demi's stomach.
She promptly fell asleep.

"Lets split up!" Tru growled "Great Idea Joslyn! Now your alone with that long haired weirdo!"
Tru sighed, it had been Joslyn's idea to split and search for whatever this thing was.
Since when did split up mean Duo-And-Joslyn-Go-Together and Tru all be her lonesome?
Never that's when.
Moving out of the trees and onto the beach she sat down to rest.
"How the heck are we supposed to find his friends anyways? It will be impossible."
She looked out at the ocean to enjoy the view.
Of a giant robot caught in the large rocks that dotted the western shoreline.
"Well..............that was easy."
She climbed up the metallic arms and to the cockpit.
Wedging her knife beneath it she pried the cockpit open.

Duo and Joslyn walked across the beach. Duo looked up as Joslyn stopped and help her hand out at her side and the ocean breeze blew her hair about her face. Duo took a step forward.
And was hit in the head by a piece of seaweed.
He glared at Fang who poised another piece on her tail. He scowled and looked back at Joslyn.
She was gone.
He turned and watched as she ran along the shoreline laughing as the waves lapped at her feet.
"Duo come on run with me! It's so much fu- AHHH!"
Joslyn tripped over something and went sprawling.
*
"Owww" Joslyn groaned.
"Owww" Came another female voice.
Duo and Joslyn turned and saw that Joslyn had tripped over a woman of about 20. The woman sat up and a fluffy white dog, or at least it might be a dog or maybe it was fuzzy rat, jumped off her stomach.
Joslyn and the woman looked at each other.
Their eyes widened.
They both said one word at the same time.
"YOU!"
