As his Kayak slipped onto the sand, he realized how much he hated boats. It wasn’t that Alex was afraid of boats or that he got sick on them. He just really hated boats. Therefore, when he got out of the kayak he took a deep breath, and then kicked the boat. After he had vented his frustration, he dragged the kayak up further onto the beach on started unpacking. He spent the next few minutes putting his AK back together, wrestling with his duffel bag, checking his clips, strapping his spear gun to his leg, and putting the kayak in a safe place.

“Now…where to?” He had memorized the map that Tiberius had had. To the North was a rather large mountain, to the South was the lagoon, and straight east was the rest of the island. Unlike his partner, Alex liked exploring more then actually finding anything. However, being a partner meant being a team, and that did not entail gallivanting all over the place. “So…if I know Tiberius he’ll head east, towards the grand prize.” This meant anything that wasn’t nailed down. He then started to move heading east, then he planned to head north towards the mountain then cross the lagoon in the center of the island, and then back east. It would probably take him a day and a night to reach the other side.

It wasn’t long till he realized he should have probably stayed on the beach. The foliage in this place was thick, and visibility was less then a few feet in front of him. “Ya, not the smartest idea I’ve ever had.” He couldn’t even tell if he was still heading east. He stopped trying to gauge his surroundings. From where he was standing, it looked like any other section of tropical wilderness. “Great!” He shook his head in frustration. “That’s what I get for not leaving when Tiberius did. Well only one thing for it, keeping going forward.” And hope to god that you don’t end up going in circles.
