40 Turtle King *

The group, quickly realising they were lost went up to a soldier to ask where they were.

"You're currently near the dining hall, if you want to go to the main area you should walk that way," the soldier said, pointing east, "After a while, there will be a large road used for transporting vehicles, go left and you should make your way to the area".

"Thank you!" Lachlan shouted before running off.

The rest also thanked the soldier and began running, following Lachlan. They quickly realised they couldn't keep up, even though it seemed he wasn't even using all of his strength., which he wasn't.

Noticing them giving up Lachlan felt satisfied, he sped up and disappeared, leaving a trail of lightning behind him.

Simon was annoyed he keeps getting bested by a young boy, he quickly began using all his strength as well, leaving craters in the shape of his feet as he ran after Lachlan.

Everyone else laughed at the scene and continued with their regular pace, quickly passing by some crates and soldiers, they stopped when they made it to what seemed to be a large road. There were vehicles everywhere, some normal cars and the rest military vehicles.

They followed the soldier's instructions and went left, they continued to go their previous pace, flying by everyone else.

The soldiers in the vehicles or patrolling the area were shocked by the speeds these 5 individuals showed.

It didn't take long, only seconds before they arrived at what appears to be a large port, and to the side was an enormous shed-like structure.

It was wide open, and from where they were they could see both Lachlan and Simon inside, talking to someone, a young female soldier. Further behind them, they saw a massive ship, a warship.

…

"So is that the ship we'll be on?" Lachlan asked.

"Indeed, its one of our very best Warships, we want this mission to have the highest chance of success," the soldier said.

"Whoa, suppose that's the least you could do," Simon said.

"Still have that arrogant attitude," Lachlan said.

Simon shut up and looked around, he noticed a few people on the boat with a checklist in their hands and a few on the ground.

"What are they doing?" Simon said, pointing towards the soldiers.

"Obviously they're checking the ships conditions, we want to limit the number of unexpected situations," she said.

"Fair enough," Simon replied.

"Hey! What are you guys doing?" Zoe said as she rushed over.

"Talking to the soldier, asking a few questions," Lachlan said.

Everyone else came over, everyone stood side by side.

"Now that everyone's here we should get your gear," the soldier said, she began leading the group to a small room in the corner.

She opened the door, inside were 7 large bags, each having a name on them.

Everyone went to their own bag and opened it up, they then began looking through, seeing that they got.

The first thing everyone noticed was the large tent on the bottom of the bag. Once they opened it up they noticed some clothes, some light clothes and then some warm ones. Inside a pocket to the side was some toothpaste and a toothbrush. There was also a comb, some deodorant and moisturiser.

They looked inside the other pockets and found shampoo, conditioner and body wash.

Moving around the clothes they saw a folded-up swag, with some blankets next to it.

They quickly put everyone back neatly and zipped the bag up before picking it up, Lachlan realised the bag weighed about 40kilos, but that amount of weight didn't faze him.

Walking outside they noticed a few soldiers with bags in front of them, the bags were much smaller than the ones they are carrying.

"While you're on this island we aren't sure what food sources there are, so we're giving you some MREs," the soldier said.

Everyone nodded and picked up the bags filled with MREs, they then walked out of the place and walked towards the shore. Although they weren't sure what Phoebe meant, they at least wanted to find out.

Once they got to the edge Phoebe walked towards the front of the group.

"Summon Faith!" She shouted.

A large tattoo on here back lit up blue, the waters began to roughen, creating waves. A large beast emerged from the water, Lachlan already knew it was going to be a turtle, but he didn't think a turtle could grow so large.

This turtle was at least 100 metres long, not to mention it was also 7 metres wide.

The head of the turtle emerged from the water soon after the body, it was quite small compared to its body. Roughly 20 metres wide, the turtle's neck was 15 metres long. The rest of the body was still submerged with the water, but from what can be currently seen, the rest certainly isn't small.

Lachlan analysed the behemoth of a turtle.

--------------------------------------------------------

It made sense to Lachlan now, such a large beast certainly won't be weak.

Lachlan also knew that riding the turtle would be much safer than the warship. As the turtle was a king of the see it would probably be avoided by almost everything. Not to mention they could also help should they need to.

"This certainly is a surprise," Simon said, "Who knew you would be so capable".

Phoebe got annoyed at that last statement and pouted, "You don't need to get on if you don't want to, seeing as you're so strong and manly why don't you swim instead".

"Hey now, I'm sorry for what I previously said, just don't make me swim," Simon quickly went up to Phoebe and apologised, he put his hands together and slightly bowed.

"Alright," Phoebe said.
