Pucca couldn't think straight. One moment she was back in Sooga Village, doing her usual business. The next, she was on an undiscovered island chain surrounded by tiny versions of her, that were praising her like some sort of goddess.
Suddenly one of the little Puccas silenced the group. "My sisters." The tiny girl began. "Let us give Master Pucca some space. We must make her feel comfortable while she's here" the other Puccas agreed. And with a final bow, they began going about their day as usual.
Pucca was more than uncomfortable, she really wanted to go home and think about all this. But right as she was going to try and sneak away, she heard 2 little Puccas talking with one another.
"This is so exciting! Master Pucca has arrived!" Said the first one. "Yeah! And to think, it's only been a few days since Master Garu arrived!" The second one said.
Garu! Pucca forgot the whole reason why she came here to begin with. She had to find Garu! Pucca quickly looked around, not a sign of Garu anywhere, besides some drawings and architecture that the natives made.
She finally wandered to the other side of the island. There was a shallow river of ocean water that separated another island. This one was really close, so close the small Puccas built a bridge to the other island. There was a thick bamboo forest growing on that island. Garu liked Bamboo. Maybe she could find him there.
So Pucca began her search. After a while she finally heard a few sounds. She peered out of a bush, but she could not decide whether this was a dream come true, or a horrible nightmare! What she saw was definitely Garu. But right next to him, were a horde of other, little, talking Garus!
Garu was showing off his ninja skills to his tiny counterparts. They all were mesmerized by him.
"Wow." One of them began. "Master Garu, you're power is endless!"
"You truly are our Master Above!"
Garu stude proudly, with a big grin on his face as the other tiny hims praised him. Pucca on the other hand was nearly outraged.
She was worried sick about him. She even went out to sea to look for him, she feared for his safety. But this whole time, Garu was just here. Feeding his ego. This was so unlike him.
But that's when a mini Pucca dashed out of the bamboo. "Greetings my sister!" The little Garus said.
"Greetings my brothers." The small Pucca replied. "My brethren, and Master Garu. Another one of our Masters Above has arrived! Master Pucca is here!!" The little girl happily said while jumping in excitement.
At that moment, the real Garu got a frightened expression on his face, while the other ones cheered.
On that note, Pucca sternly walked out of the bushes. The others took notice. "Speaking of Master Pucca. Here she is now!" The little Pucca exclaimed.
She and the other little Garus started cheering.
Pucca ignored them and went straight tword Garu. He stood there, super afraid, and smiling nervously.
Pucca wanted to slap him in the face. Making her go through all this, only to not be in any danger at all. But her kind hearted nature pushed her against doing the action. Besides, who knows what these little creatures would do if they saw one of their supposed gods slap the other.
Pucca gave Garu a stern look that made it very clear about how she was feeling.
Garu looked to the ground, he knew what he did and he felt bad about his decision to stay on these islands and bask in the natives praise instead of go home and let everyone know he was alright.
The tension was broken by one of the little Garu's tugging on Pucca's leg. She looked down, as the little ninja began to talk.
"Master Pucca! You and Master Garu have arrived in such a short time. Are the others coming as well?! The tiny Garu had the biggest twinkle in his eyes.
"Neither of them can speak, fool." Said another Garu. "But..." One of the others began. "If the others are coming, that means the day we've waited for so long is approaching!"
Pucca wasn't sure what to focus on anymore. Garu, the tiny copy's of herself, or getting out of here.
However, things weren't normal back in Sooga Village either.
