Today's quote of the chapter is!
"I have not failed, I only found out what won't work." ~Thomas Edison, or something like that
Well, I think writing in a POV is SOOO much easier, it is the easiest thing to describe a person's feelings or what they are seeing.

Marine's POV
...
Well, some would say waiting for something that was supposed to be sort of sickening, disorientating, and overall unpleasant, would be very nerve racking. I, however, was rather bored watching the bland expressions on my friends' faces as they were "syncing up," quote un-quote. I just hoped this would not last long, according to my watch we should be leaving in a minute, and I wanted to get going!
Oh well, I looked around the kitchen, the room we were in. It would be the last time I would ever get to see this room, ever. It saddened me a little again to realize I was letting my own slice of land go. Southern Island was where I lived! I really wish we did not have to leave. I took a look at my stove, and reached out to grab that little grate off the top of it. To remind me of this place. I would not forget it...
Tails had been nice enough to offer me a place to stay for the long term till I found my own place. He even said it would be permanent if I wanted it to be, although I had to do various chores and work for not a very high wage. Apparently Tails was a machinist as well as an expert private pilot. I was told that he would be competing at an airshow in a month! That sounds fun to watch. He offered me a job as his apprentice in machining and the other knowledge of various trades that he knew. I think he read my mind for specific interests! That is exactly what I would do!
Looks like I have a second left... I gripped my stove grate tightly and then everything went black...

Tails' POV
...
Oh great! Why did Chaos control have to make first time travelers pass out? Damnit! I gave Marine a good solid shake. That oughta wake her up! I glanced at my watch as I continued to shake her. Shit!
...
Marine's POV
...
I slowly opened my eyes to see Tails shaking the crap outta me.
"S-s-stop!" I stuttered out. My bangs fell in front my face.
"C'mon Marine! Lets go! Haven't you always wanted to raid royalty's house for valuables?" He asked playfully, throwing me on my feet and dashing into the... Sol castle? I only guess at this since I was never invited. Blaze's parents weren't the most equal of folks. If it wasn't royalty or a cat, it was an it. That seemed to be their motto and Blaze seemed awful ashamed of it.
Anyways, back to my complete and utter awe at the grandness of Castle Sol! As I was dragged through the main gates, that were surrounded by the greenest of lawns I had ever seen, and the most vibrant garden as well. I got pulled through the castle corridors that were gallantly bedazzled with various large portraits. Many of the Cat family. Aww! There is one of Blaze as a kitten! Oh boy she was a fluffy kitten too! I laughed in my head, looking at a picture of a light lavender kitten. She was sprawled over on the ground, tangled in some window blinds. What a weird thing to make a portrait of? I could tell it was Blaze cause she had that fashionably, kidding, placed jewel in the middle of her forehead. There was also her name engraved on the bottom of the picture frame. That, however, was the only portrait I actual got a good look at.
Before I knew it, I was flat on my rear in a large room filled with various gems and precious medals. "Alright Marine, stuff whatever you can full of gold. This way you, Blaze, and her parents have something to live off of for a while." Tails was practically in a shouting panic, how long was I out?
I lazily gathered some stuff and threw it in my pockets then Tails smashed into me, grabbing my arm and yanking me down the hallways again. Wow, we must REALLY be cutting it close for Tails to be this impatient. So far it had been thirty seconds and we were still dashing down the hallways, how BIG was this castle! Then I saw Tails glance at his watch, he mouthed the "S" word, something I have never heard him say.
Tails through the bag of gold over his shoulder then out of nowhere yanked me off my feet and into his arms. I dunno how he did it but the world began to blur past at a remarkable pace. Boy could Tails run! Then there was the smoothness of the carrying, there was no jostling like it would be if he were running. I looked down and saw that he feet were not even touching the ground! Then back at his tails which were whirring at a blinding pace, upon closer observation, I could see various objects fly off the walls in the wake of Tails movement. Up ahead I could see the hallway end and Tails flew into the opening at full tilt, It appeared the Blaze and her parents were waiting right there in the clearing. Then a blinding flash filled the clearing, everyone's face went white. I had no idea if it was out of fear or just from the bright light itself.
I could swear that Tails instantly accelerated to twice the speed he was moving, and we were only 20 meters away from Blaze and her family at this point. I thought we were going to hit them! But Blaze held up the Sol emerald and had a 'gosh I hope this works' look on her face. As we flew into there position, Blaze initiated that Chaos control thing and we were gone again. Everything went black for the second time today...
...
Wow, oh damn that chapter went by fast! I thought I captured Marine's cluelessness in her point of view pretty well, I will have another character recall exactly what happened in that sequence in a later chapter. But WOW! I just sorta slapped this chapter together, and out comes brilliance! Haha!
Jokes, I dunno, if it was good tell me, if not, then do whatever...
