Chapter 59 - Land Ho!

On a medium sized dock onloockers looked out in awe as a ship shakily moseyed into the docking area.

The ships masts were extremely damaged and different parts of the hull were cracked , missing paint and or taking on water. It was a miracle that the vessel could even remain afloat.

Mumurs and whispers began circulating among the crowd as the ship finally came to rest in the docking area. They saw a boy standing on the bow of the ship.

It was supposed to be a majestic sight but instead looked pitiful as he looked as if he hadn't eaten in days. His shaggy blonde hair swayed in the wind as his thin hands pointed a stick in a forward direction. He held this pose until the ship came to its final hault.

Will who was looking ahead looked down at the crowd gathering before him and smiled. He had reached new land and a new adventure was afoot.

However before he could come to enjoy the new land he was in he looked at the clothes that everyone wore. The main colors that could be seen were red and orange a strange mix and matching of the colors went on here. The outfits however remained extremely varied and some were alot more extravagant than others. Some were large and flamboyant making them stand out of the crowd while others were silky and smooth accentuating the figure of whoever wore it.

Will was snapped out of his thoughts by the grasp of a hand upon his shoulder.

" Will , don't stare to much, were gonna need a change of outfit or we're gonna stand out"

Davie who looked a bit exhausted pointed out. He then walked back into the bridge and two more people accompanied him out. They all looked to have varying degrees of exhaustion or hunger.

A regal and ladylike voice spoke up.

" Will how are you lucky but unable to catch a single fish?"

Will laughed for a few seconds but akwardly stopped when he realized that he was not getting the reaction he hoped for.

Apathy and Belle looked over the edge and started talking to eachother.

"Do you think they'll recognize us?" Belle curiosity questioned as she looked over the edge.

"Im still wondering if Will will recognize you" Apathy clapped back.

Belle frowned before turning around. Will was cheerily talking to Davie. Davie was leaning against the wall giving a slow nod in response to everything he said. It was unknown wether he was listening or not but it didn't matter to Will.

She turned back to see Apathy staring at her with a raised eyebrow and a curious experession. She finally gave in and grumbled.

" I'll tell him soon"

Alteast she finally knew who drew that image of the castle on the door. It was kind of hilarious that her drawings were as bad as Will's but she couldn't think about that now. She had to think of the right time to tell Will of her true identity.

She was dreading this moment and it was coming up soon. She was quickly awakened by the sound of Will's voice calling to her.

They were beginning to disembark the vessel. She slowly followed on. The docks here were made of a concrete like material instead of wooden planks.

"This island seems to have money" Apathy said as clicked her hells on the floor.

They were soon surrounded by people shouting at them.

" Hey! You wanna buy some new glamorous red trousers"

" Hey you! Your hair's looking quite long why don't you fix it up with a orange bandana young man!"

" You two lovely ladies would look beautiful in these orange tye dye sundresses. Mmmmm hmmmm!! Especially you young lady! You've got the body of a princess!"

Belle blushed at the salesman's comments and Apathy's eyebrows twitched.

Will was repeatedly declining offers while Davie was pushing young women off of him as they tried to take the measurements of his...special areas. His ass was even slapped by a girl who found it upsetting that he kept squirming.

Apathy soon got impatient and said

"All this talk of fashion is making me tired *Yawn*"

As her sentence finished swathes of people began to yawn as well and some even decided to walk away and find a good place to take a nap.

'Advertising was a hard job to keep up. It can be very tiring I might need a break' they all thought.

However before she could smile at her job well done a few people in in red and orange suits that looked a lot more glamorous and expensive remained after the majority of the crowd left.

A young man in his 20s stood at the forefront of the group and as Apathy moved he slowly took his hands out his pockets.

She brought her hands from behind her back and she could see that all 3 charms were now cracked. She frowned and before she could say anything Will appeared before him.

He was definitely the leader. He stood front and center while the others stood behind him as if waiting for his instructions.

His hair was short made if small curls and was a muddy orange color. His face was very masculine and he had sharp eyes and brows. Accented by his tall figure and his glossy lips he could only be described as a model. He wore a red double breasted jacket over a white shirt and his pants were a dark orange. His shoes formal and a light brown.The females wore the exact same thing except they wore brown heels. They all had a crest of a prancing gazelle embroidered onto their breast pockets.

A few seconds earlier...

The leader watched curiously as the crowd left and the group of 4 were left alone so easily. These designers were hard to get away from. He raised his brow but didn't make a move. He watched as the girl in the lead stared at some trinkets in her hands.

He finally took his muscular yet model like hands out of his pocket. He was about to introduce himself but suddenly infront of him was a small boy no older than 13.

He looked down at the child and was about to shoo him away when he said something surprising.

" I dont like the way you look."
