“Hey.” Will said quietly.

Rykah looked at him still stroking the large tigress that was sitting next to him.. "hey.."

Will wondered about the tigress, but said, “You alright?”

"I guess" said Rykah still stroking the tigress

“So, the answer is no?”

"Not what I said.." replied rykah

“Is it what you meant?”

"No"

Will decided not to push, instead staying quiet in the hopes that Rykah eould open up to him.

Rykahs stomach growled as the sun dipped a little lower. "Hey Will, are you hungry?" He asked.

“Kind of.” Will said as his stomach growled loudly.

Rykah nodded and got to his feet. "Follow me" he said keeping one hand on the large tigress' shoulder as he walked off.

Will got up, and followed the other boy.”Where are we going?”

"Tranta Grove" came Rykahs simple reply

“Where?”

"The tranta tree grove" said Rykah "you'll see"

“If you say so.”
(Sorry to cut this short, I’ll be back tomorrow. I got some family stuff I have to deal with tonight.)

(No problem.. I was gonna go to bed soon anyway…)
Rykah led will into a small grove full of small trees. These trees were about as tall as a full grown human. But were still short enough for Rykah and Will to reach the fruit. The fruit itself was bright pink. Rykah quickly pulled on down and took a bite of the round apple like fruit. Grabbing another he tossed it to will.

Will caught the fruit and took a bite out of it, trusting Rykah that it wouldn’t kill him.

Rykah pulled down a taller branch and picked off some more fruit before sitting down in the grass.

Will sat down next to him. He wasn’t even totally sure what to say. “This has been the weirdest week of my life.”

Rykah couldn't help but grin a little at that, "I don't blame you…" he said..

Will fell silent for a while, still unsure of what to say. He mostly just watched Rykah sadly.

Rykah finished his share of the fruit just as night fell. Getting to his feet he strode off to the center of the island.

Will followed, quickening is pace to be level with him.

Rykah didn't say anything as he led Will to the center of the island. the island itself was like a floating mountain, and Rykah followed a seemingly invisible path to the very peak of the island. It took awhile but when they finally got there the view was amazing. you could see for miles around and the night sky was filled with stars. But it wasn't the stars or the moon Rykah was looking at, instead he looked towards the eastern horizon, where you could just barely see a small speck of light.

Will gaped at the stars, but then realized Rykah was looking somewhere else. “Rykah?”

"Yeah?" Said Rykah, searching the horizon for more lights.

"What are you looking at?"

"The other islands…" said Rykah
