She's my wish~ (Wander x Reader)

Chapter 18 - Let's climb that peak!

~ Author's Note ~

If you're reading this... thank you, you are some great person. Or alien, whatever n.n Don't let people tell you otherwise!

The three friends are in a desert (-- I first wrote 'dessert' without noticing, LOL) where they can't use orbbles-- they pop instantly due to excessive heat. What can they do?

Sorry for the 15 minutes delay~

So... I really enjoyed the last chapter xD Didn't you? I never thought it would turn out like this!

Enjoy nwn

"Where are we now...?" panted the (f/c) Star Nomad, as Sylvia responded, wiping off her forehead.

"The other side of the galaxy...?"

"Planet...?"

"I dunno..."

"I know, I know! Hmm... This map says..." Wander stared at a map, he turned it upside down, to the sides, rotated it again... And he even took his time to remove his hat and scratch his head "Oh, I got it!"

"Yes?" they both were about to die.

"We're 'ere! And we can go 'ere!" Wander pointed at a planet, then at another "This place's not that big!"

Sylvia took a glance at the map, then took it off Wander's hands and turned it upside down again "We're HERE." and she pointed at the biggest planet in the map. Wander gasped.

"So, this place is big!"

"Let's get outta here, this is frustrating! Wander! Blow an orbble!"

Obediently following the order, Wander stuck his hand inside the green hat, retrieving the bottle of orbble juice. He blew a little bubble that enclosed and carried him a few meters from the ground... before popping, so that he landed with his face, on the sand.

His head was now figuratively, buried UNDER the sand. Like an ostrich would be supposed to do.

"We can't get out that way~!" may it sound weird, his voice was still audible.

"We didn't notice it, pal. Thanks for sayin'."

"You're welcome, Syl!" he gave a thumbs up, still with his face into the sand.

"Wait, now that I remember..." (Name) took the map from Sylvia and stole a peek at it. There it was what she was searching for "Here! This is it!"

"What? That greeny, gardeny planet?"

"I've been there. We can stop by, it'll be good for a rest!"

"Good then, but how're we gonna escape this oven?"

"We can call Hater so he'll come 'n pick us 'p!" the orange one finally managed to get his head out of the sand "He's a good ol' pal o' mine!"

"Even if we REALLY wanted to call Hater-- which is NOT one of my options, Wander-- how will we be able to call 'im?"

"Well, lil' (Name) got a walkie-talkie!"

"No!" she snatched the walkie-talkie from his hands and hid it in her backpack. How did he get it, in first place...? "Umm, I mean... If I remember well! At the gardens they used to tell that this planet had a very high peak. It will take us nearly out of the atmosphere so we can float out from here!"

"Yeah, so... Where do we go?"

"That... I dunno." (Name) smiled innocently.

"Well... Let's go, Wander. Let's wander over yonder, over this planet, over this dry 'n isolated 'n sad planet!"
