Chapter 329 Memories, Fuck Around And Find Out
[Day 7: Final day on the island]
To my surprise, I woke up with a clear head, feeling better than I had in a long time. It was like I had just slept for a week, and people had been stretching my body up till now.
Wataluga: We fuzed back up with you after you fell asleep, and I noticed that you were inflicted with poison. I flushed your body, so you should feel better now.
Grogvel: I also made sure that you got a good workout while you slept! Man needs to be in good shape for today! You've got a lot of work to do and very little time!
I sat up in my bed, swinging my legs over the edge of the bed. I was thankful for my Elemental friends more than ever today.
'Thanks, guys; I really needed that after last night's drinking with Mex. You are right, though; I need to get up and go. I have eggs to make!'
I wasn't going to forget this again, and it was the easiest part of my day. Lidy was another one of the girls that were close to me, and I enjoyed seeing her smile.
I changed my shorts and grabbed a grey shirt that was hanging on the wall. Clothed, I headed out of the room, closing the door being me.
Mex's door was closed, and I didn't feel any presence of him or candace.
That surprised me.
I would have thought that Mex would still be trying to sleep the booze off, but he was the one that took me to bed. He probably could have polished the bottle off by himself and still been fine.
That or Candace forced him to get up. Hungover or not, that was probably the answer.
I could hear the sounds of girls' voices coming from down the stairs, so I headed down.
The floor below me was where Clesh and the other grandmothers lived, with three doors on each side. I had never been in any of their rooms, but it was too late for that now.
We were leaving, and this place would be left behind. Even though I had been here for just under a week and less time in this building, it felt like home.
I would miss this place, but I was sure…
*Squawk!*
I stopped in mid-thought and turned around.
I had made it halfway down the first flight of stairs, but I swear I just heard a bird coming from back up the stairs. When I rounded, there was a ladder on the far wall between our rooms.
That had not been there yesterday, and it led up to a hatch on the roof. This was strange, and I was starting to get the scent of the ocean in the air.
I frowned and decided that it wouldn't hurt to go take a look at what was up there. I was probably just hearing things.
I walked over to the metal ladder that looked to be fused with the wall, eyeing it at first. With a quick shake test, I deemed the ladder to be safe and started to climb up.
There were a number of ways that I could have used my abilities to make it easier. Sometimes it felt better to do it the way I was used to, but I would have to break that habit.
I needed to get more familiar with my powers, the ones that the others have. I needed to do this if I hoped to have a chance to keep everyone safe.
The ladder wasn't that tall, and I reached the top fairly quickly. I pushed on the door above me, and I was surprised at just how heavy it was.
As I opened the hatch, I was hit with a fresh breeze and the bright light of the sun just rising. There was also Lizy standing in front of me.
"Oh, hello, Zack! I see you have found the hatch to the ship! Have you come to see all the work we have been doing?" Lizy asked with a genuine smile as she stood atop a massive steel cocoon.
"Please tell her we did good! I don't want to hear about it after you go!" Kerri complained as she weaved around Lizy's long thin spider legs.

"You are, but I would much sooner have you this way than you were before. I count my blessings, but you have to admit that this is quite good. Also, good morning, Zack," Jilly said and then extended her body to give me her cheek to kiss.
When Jilly was in her large form, my lips were too small to kiss hers. I crawled out, making my feet like stone, and kissed Jilly's cheek, and then I looked around.
We were out at the south beach and not far from the village that Lina lived in. The ship looked amazing; it was a submarine made from razor wire.
"This is great; you all have done an amazing job," I told all the girls, and Lizzy transformed into her human form.
The two girls came over to me, and I gave them both kisses. When I was done kissing Kerri, I felt something.
I was being pulled at by something behind me. I turned around, but it was only open water, but there was something out there.
Even if I couldn't see it, I could feel a gathering presence coming from the water. Whatever it was, it was going to try and cause problems for us leaving.
"They are minions of the Sea Witch and the Demon Lord you stopped from invading this beach," Nushi's voice said from behind me, making me turn around again.
Nushi was floating in the air with large red wings out but not moving. Seeing her majestic form was almost enough to make me forget the massing hordes of sea horrors.
"We will deal with them when we leave. Remember that we are all gonna get a big boost when we leave the island. They are playing a game of "Fuck Around and Find Out!" and they aren't going to like what happens. Come, I will make you all breakfast. Eggs in a Basket with bacon!" I declared, and the girls all cheered.
