When we get close to the island, we see a port, which we dock at. As we get off the boat, I freeze it to the ocean; so it doesn’t get carried off to the sky, and then I look around the port, we all see it is rather run down as if it hasn’t been used in a while.
But we do come across a sign that says: Elpída straight head at the centre of the island, so I tell everyone “Sorry guys I would use my sledge to get us there but using up most of my strength wouldn’t be a good idea, so sorry we have to run there.”
“No problem I could use a bit of exercise,” Suzuka says.
“fFrst one there gets the to punch Orb,” Atlanta says as she grabs Suzuka and starts running.
It seems I have really upset her. As we start running there I say to Cyrus “If running with the bag is too much just tell me so we can slow down.” He nods in response. Even if it was too much, he probably wouldn’t tell me.
While running through the island, when we look up we see countless objects just floating through the sky books, food, ships, clothes, furniture but most disturbing of all even bones. What the hell is going on if this is a natural phenomenon I really want to know how it works I am so excited.
“Orb, looking at bones and smiling is demented,” Atalanta says. “Isn’t he creepy Suzuka?”
“Very.”
“Hey, stop making fun of me!”
After a little while of running Suzuka says to me “Orb, I can hear people's voices of people.”
That must mean we are close to civilisation of some kind, but in all honesty, we haven’t been running for all that long, so it is strange to think that we are almost at the center of the island. Though when we were looking at the island from afar it didn’t really look that big.
I was sure that this whole country would be a lot bigger considering how Sparrow talked about it. But since he has never been here, he probably just heard some ridiculous rumours. I do hope that all of this isn’t just a huge waste of our time, cause if it is, I will punch that bastard in his stupid face.
We eventually reach a group of people all dressed in extremely fancy clothes, but more eye-catching than the people were the huge platforms they were all standing next to.
I walk up to one of them and ask, “What are you guys doing here.”
“Don’t speak to me, you dusty child. Can you not see the difference between us,” The man says letting out a little laugh.
Then his wife beside him says, “The boy is wearing church clothes, so he probably hasn’t seen anyone of class in his small little life,” while laughing at me.
Angered I reign myself in and move on back to everyone where Suzuka informs me, “Apparently they are waiting here for someone to show up, to let them in Elpída; I hear them think about when you were talking to them.”
At least our whole talk wasn’t pointless. “Thank you for that Suzuka, but don’t overwork yourself,” I say while rubbing her head.
Then after a little while we see a messy gloomy woman walks up to all of us and says, “Are you all here to go to Elpída,” in a dreary tone.
“Yes, it took you long enough we have been waiting,” Someone says.
Stolen story; please report.
“So today is going to be one of these days,” the woman mumbles under her breath. The woman in question then throws a circular object into the air and suddenly curtains come straight down from it and surround her. Then after a little bit of rustling she comes out in a performer's outfit, no I think that is a bunny outfit.
Her energy completely changes as she comes out, and she says “Hello ladies and gentlemen, I will be your guide to Elpída today. My name is Dia, but I prefer to be called great ultimate magnificent ultra mega awesome princess queen lover darling the 1st, she says with a cute smile.
As she informs us of all of this, she is really putting on a show which amuses me and the three people behind me. Though it seems some of the parents are covering their kid's eyes. Maybe it is because it is quite lewd but still entertaining.
“Can you hurry up,” The rude man said.
Walking up to him the guide says, “Pwease don’t be mad at me.”
But the man’s wife d tries to hit her, but the guide backflips away in time and says, “Now that we have all gotten acquainted let us all go, but first I have to make sure all of you have enough money to come aboard.” She then quickly moves around to everyone and checks our bags. Then returns to where she was standing.
“Everyone who I point at gets to stay, everyone else your too poor. How unfortunate ♥.” So, she quickly points her finger at most of the people with the expectation of a few and says, “The west of you can weave.”
The rude man then walks up to the guide, and says, “What do you mean I can leave, I am one hundred per cent sure that I have enough money to enter.”
“Well, you see you darling ♥ it is a national rule that you can only be admitted entry if have enough money to stay for one week on you; you barely have enough money to last you three days and if you plan to do shopping it will last you one day so sorry. Rawr.”
“How the hell do I have less money than that grubby brat over there.”
Orb control yourself remember murder is wrong, I take a deep breath.
“I demand to be let in this instant, do you know who I am, you dumb.”
Grabbing the man by the face she pulls him close, and says in an aggressive voice, “Listen right now you dumb fucker, I told you that you are too poor, complaining won't magically give you more money, so shut up and go away, unless you want to end up broke up there, and then end up accumulating lots of debt to just get by, which eventually leads you to throw away your dignity and dress like a bunny girl to be a tour guide for entitled pieces of crap, now IS THAT THE LIFE YOU WANT!
Letting go of him our guide walks away and says, “No, I don’t think that’s what you want ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔっ♥.”
The man picking himself up runs away with his wife, and says, “You will pay for this.”
The guide then does a motion as if she feels victorious after what she just did. “Now the rest of you let’s get going. I will need all of you to step into whatever bubble you like the best ok.”
As we all follow her instructions, I see Suzuka walk up to our guide and says, “It will be ok, and just so you know you look cute.”
Bending over to match Suzuka’s height, she gives her a big hug and says, “People like you make this horrible job much easier.”
Upon entering the bubbles the lady says, “I will be using this device in my hands to project my voice to each of the bubbles; this device sends my voice at a certain frequency that can be picked up by the bubbles, which will reverberate my voice throughout each one. So the first thing I will tell you is to not panic.”
Wondering what she could mean I soon get my answer, suddenly I see a giant whale-like creature come from the sky and put our bubble in his mouth. Everyone in the bubble screams as this happens but our guide laughs and says, “People's first reactions get me every time.”
The creature doesn’t close its mouth, instead, it just carries us in it. Looking through the bubble I see other whale-like creatures are doing the same to the other bubbles.
Then our guide says “To does who have eyes, you could see that there is a strange phenomenon on this island where things float in the sky; that is due to the fact that the gravity in this part of the world is odd, and do to that oddity a special living condition formed. where the gravity condenses the space into an ultra-dense form where it acts like an ocean in the sky. We call this the Astral Sea.
Normally it would be impossible for any creature to get in here without almost dying, but thanks to this big boy we can do it without any issue. This is the wonder beast the bohemian whale, it happens to be the only way for us to get into Elpída. It has evolved to live in the astral sea so it can get through it without issue, by using the bubbles we can get the whales to give us a ride up. Mister whale is doing a really good job for us so make sure to say thank you mister whale ლ(◉‿◉ ლ).”
“Thank you, mister whale,” Suzuka and I say.
“Now enjoy the view as we are brought up by mister whale the astral sea is filled with one-of-a-kind wonderbeasts.”
As we move through the astral sea our guide names wonder beasts I have never seen or heard of before.
“The ratupuic.”
“The turboray.”
“The fortesso.”
Seeing all of these I am completely lost in my excitement, I jump up and down like an over-excited child, but I don’t care, staring at them I drool and say, “I want to dissect them and figure out all about their inside.”
“Orb you're being creepy,” Atalanta says.
“No, I am not.”
“Clean up the drool on your face before you say that.”
Suddenly I see something that catches my eye, a bird with strange feathers swimming through the astral sea after looking at it, I say cutting our guide off who was about to say it herself, “That is an astral phoenix.”
“It is a wonderbeast whose feather changes through the year to represent the date of the year it is, it is also said they tend to get happier as the year comes to a close.”
“That is correct,” our guide says to us. I realize that she put her device right next to my face, so everyone heard my little spiel. Facing her I say, “Sorry for stepping on your toes.”
“Don’t worry if you want to take this job from me, I wouldn’t care (✿◠‿◠). So, boy if you ever want to do me a favour, please take this job from me.”
“Lady, are you ok?” Her tone changed up around the end there.
“Of course, I am silly (*^ ‿ <*)♡.”
“So Orb it is just like you then,” Atalanta says.
“What do you mean?” Suzuka asks.
“Oh yeah I guess you wouldn’t know, let me show you.” I freeze my hair and get the white dye off of it, revealing that my hair changes colours to Suzuka.
Surprise she jumps back then walks up to me and asks, “Can I touch your hair?”
“Go ahead.”
