=intro.=

Hello. My name is Daniel. You can call me Dan, as that name is going to be used throughout these stories. Everything I am going to tell you is going to be about something awesome happening and me screwing it up. But then, there is always a solution, or something like that. That doesn't always happen, and just so you know, I'm not the smartest on the island. That person is Gary, and he plays a role sometimes. Why am I talking right now? I don't know, lets move on to EPISODE ONE.

=chapter one.= I was walking on the beach with my friend Logan, when we both see something wash up on the shore. "Wow, do you see that?" Logan said. "It looks weird, I'm gonna get a stick to poke it with," I replied. I found a stick laying on top of a rock, and held it with a light grip. I started nudging the mysterious item with the stick until I saw what it was.

It was a glass bottle. With some kind of paper inside of it, too. "What do you think the paper says?" Logan asked. "Probably a message," I guessed. We both walked to my igloo to open it, and we couldn't believe what was in it. Inside was a note! The note read, "To the person who finds this, please send help. I am lost in the sea, after a storm happened when I was Hydro-Hopping. The two penguins driving the boat ditched me, to my surprise. I was left alone. After this occurred, I found a bottle with an empty paper in it and a separate green pen. I am using the pen and paper to send this message. I am writing this message on J". The message ended there.

"J?" Logan said. "J what? It could have been January, June, July, or February!" "It's because of the pen, maybe it had low ink." I inferred. "Anyways, we need to send help," Logan said. "Wait. What if we helped find the person. We could become heroes!" I said. "You're crazy. We can't help that guy! He could be dead by now. The message was most likely written in February, dude," Logan said. "Forget you, then. I'm gonna do it myself," I said. "Fine, I will be at your side," Logan said annoyingly.

=chapter two.= How where we going to find him? I didn't know, but the answer was clear: we needed to hijack the Hydro Hopper boat. But how were we going to do that? With a little teamwork, of course. "Ready?" I asked Logan. "Ready," he replied, confident. Logan held a plate of cookies and went out in the open saying, "FREE COOKIES!" I watched the blue and pink penguins get out of the boat for a delicious cookie. I jumped onto the boat. How do you start this thing? I thought. I got my flipper stuck in a Pulley Thingy that I don't know the name of and when I got it out, the boat started.

Logan dropped the plate of cookies, and I saw the Pink and Blue penguins chase after him. But they had no chance, because by the time Logan got into the boat, I had already driven off. I sucked at driving the boat, but my skills were good enough to drive us away. "Now, where do we go? You are just driving in circles now," Logan said. He was right, where DO we go? I just drove around until I heard a noise. Uh oh, I thought. "DA BOAT IS OUT OF GAS! I REPEAT, DA BOAT IS OUT OF GAS!" Logan screamed. "SHUT UP!" I shouted at him. "You aren't making things better." The water's wave's were rushing the boat around. I noticed some dark clouds heading this way. "Holy cow, Logan, look!"

"A STORM! AHHH! We are all going to die!" Logan screamed. I slapped him. Lightning struck near us, and sharks surrounded our boat. The island wasn't in sight. "Crud, what do we do?" I worried. But then, I realized I still had the Bottle Opener in my pocket! I got it out, and threw it at one of the sharks. It reacted by eating the back of our boat. We're doomed, I thought.

chapter three.
We both held on to each other and knew this was the end. I saw a light, maybe from heaven? The light was getting closer, and I heard a voice. "Get on, now," the unknown voice said. The light was making me unable to see who was talking, but we were apparently getting on a helicopter. Once we were on, I saw the two penguins who drove the boat in the front of the helicopter. "You stole and broke our boat. What the heck, guys?" the pink one said. I was surprised, but only because I didn't know they owned a helicopter too. "You could have asked to use the boat, but I guess it's too late," the blue one said.

The helicopter started shaking, and lightning struck the helicopter. I screamed as fire was reaching our area. Why were bad things happening today? I don't know, but I hoped they stopped by now. The fire tore the seats apart, and the helicopter was uncontrollable now. It was spinning, and it threw the pink penguin out. Luckily, she had a parachute. But then a shark jumped out, and gulped her down. My face was blank, how could this get worse? The blue penguin then said, "I can't take this anymore!" He jumped out, and was eaten by the same shark.

The fire took up the whole backseat, and the helicopter wasn't working. I noticed a blow-up raft and a first-aid kit in a small box, and took those out. I blew as hard as I can into the raft, but the helicopter was falling. "AAAAHHHH!" Logan screamed. I blew more and more into the raft, and we were already about 30 meters away from hitting water. By the time I finished blowing into the raft, it looked like we were 5 meters from death. I jumped out with Logan, and we floated on the raft.

We both watched as the helicopter hit the water and sunk slowly. So much for that.

=chapter four.=

I had a few cuts from the jump, and Logan had a burnt flipper. Luckily, the first aid kit took care of that. Sorta. I saw a shadow in the water, and immediately thought it was a shark. I then saw a penguin.

"Who are you?" the penguin questioned. I didn't answer, and instead asked, "Who are YOU?" "My name is Raznook. I have been stranded for more than 2 weeks. Do you have any idea where the island is?" he asked. "Oh, the island? It's this wa-" I said, only to realize that I was pointing to the ocean. "Dan, I think we are stranded," Logan told me. "Oh really? I didn't realize that we ARE IN THE OCEAN!" I shouted at him. "Patience you must learn, young padiwan," Raznook said to me. "Wait, are you the one that sent the bottle?" I asked. "Yes, but that was over 3 days ago, on July 5. I have been keeping myself occupied with this 3DS that I ha- aww, crap. It's dead," he said. I noticed that there were some oars on the side, and I showed them to Raznook.

"Great! We can paddle to the island, now," he said. But as soon as they touched the water, they broke in half. "Oh no! Let's just paddle with our flippers, like men," Logan suggested. "You didn't have to say that last part, but okay!" I said. It was a tiring job. But by midnight, we were home.

"Thanks for everything, Raznook," Logan thanked. I said the same, and me and Logan headed to our igloos. I layed in bed, and fell asleep, without any worries.

end.
