The scientist woke up in the clutches of the officer as she was being dragged to the dock, up until he noticed that she had awakened, only to throw her to her feet and push her on; no matter how much she ached from her fall. Perhaps she survived the fall, or the man caught her with his now unnatural powers she had accidentally given him; but she knew that it was over. But upon looking up, she spotted her assistant, being held captive by an unusual turtle. He had to be in cahoots with the officer, but she knew that they were being sent off to an island at this point. She felt horrible to have dragged her assistant into this mess, and looked over to her once they reached the boat, only to say very few words to her just before getting shoved in the boat: 'It was nice working with you.'
After the lone, and quiet ride.... quiet to most of the party as others held their hands over their ears to the turtles loud off-tuned melody to what made it seem like forever to reach the island where they would be forever doomed..... images of terrible food, dark cells, and stripped cloths kept running thought he scientists mind. She only looked up once the turtle had stopped his screeching, to see where she was at before being asked to take a seat.
"Alright." the officer began. "Go on though those doors and I will meet you there." he spoke as he released their hands of the cuffs. What they were about to see was nothing that they ever suspected.
"Oh no!" Natalie complained as she went off. "They've taken me to a...... a.... HAPPY PLACE?!" she stated in a shocked outrage. It was worse then she thought! The assistant soon came out after her. At least they would share the island together. But the first thing that the scientist did was look to see if there was anyone else outside of them in this newfound prison island of joy and sunshine, and soon found a native that wiggled and squirmed. "What is it?" the assistant asked. "A native... but its singing a haunting tune... best keep our distance till we can understand what it is saying." Natalie replied.
However the assistant, being the bold one, marched right upto the unknown thing, and soon, turned around while holding two fishing rods and nets; sporting the biggest grin Natalie had ever seen. "Look! It's nice. It gave me these things."
With barely any time to estimate the situation, all the scientist did was sigh and speak up. "Well, it looks like that you have finally got that lifetime tropical vacation that you always wanted." However to Natalie's surprise, the assistant began to scream with joy, before lunging at the scientist in a hug, being showered by a line of endless praise as though this was the grace of the scientist that allowed her to enjoy herself; before spinning around and dragging the scientist away by the arm after shoving the things in Natalie's free arm and began to drag her around like a personal toy toward the ocean waters edge.
Although normally she would fight off her assistant for such acts, she soon spotted the police officer on the island. But how? Didn't she last see him inside dropping them off at the door? He must have multiplied again. That thought was uneasy in Natalie's stomach, as that means it would soon enough be a one-man security force keeping the two women on the island. It had to be the worst mistake she has ever made.
He held an axe, forcing the woman to fish, catch bugs, and sing songs of love and peace over a campfire. It didn't take more then ten seconds for the scientist to wish that she hit her head when falling off that cliff earlier. But soon the chance had came, as once the officers back had turned, she began to converse with her assistant. "We need to get out of here!" Natalie hissed to her. "Well, we can always walk home." the assistant responded. At this point, the scientist dulled her eyes before she decided to go with it and act excited. "Walking on water--your a genius!"
However it would be when the scientist sighed and looked up to the starlit sky. "It is beautiful out here. You can see everything. Look, there is Mars." Natalie remarked, pointing up to it. This caused the assistent to look up and give a small gasp. "It's so tiny..." Natalie just reached over and rubbed her back. "Yes... yes it is."
It didnt take long for the officer, and his copies to pass out, as multiplying did take up a lot of energy. After some deep thinking, it was probably best if they did swim back... and as our troublesome pair swimmed off back to OakRidge... the scientist couldn't help but wonder if one stayed behind... or if all of them will flourishing worldwide and chase them at ever corner of the earth...
Only time will tell...........
