After your game of human golf, Erin's jealousy over your perfect movement, ditching the empty ship, and getting your pocket money, you reached a small island. Erin was cautious as you were still in the Florian Triangle, but you reassuringly patted his back. "Don't worry. You're with me. Nothing can happen to you." You said with a straight face. He snorted. "Yeah, sure." And he went back to playing with his sword.

Avis was still in her room, as you and Erin heard a sudden scream. You looked at him. "Wanna check out?" You asked, while you provocatively raised an eyebrow. Erin only sighed.

You left a note to Avis: We are checking out the island. Heard some noise. Maybe we find a rainbow squirrel. (Y/N) As you walked into the misty woods, you looked around attentively. "What are you doing?" A bored Vice-Admiral asked. "Looking for a rainbow squirrel." You answered his dumb question. Wasn't that obvious? "They don't exist." He said. You placed your hand over his mouth. "Sssht. They can hear you!" You whisper-yelled. He gazed at you with the Are-you-serious?-look in his eyes. You removed your hand slowly from his mouth, as you heard the scream again, louder this time. "Let's go."

As you got deeper and deeper into the woods, it became darker, deader and pricklier. You maneuvered swiftly past the cracking bushes, while someone else roughly plundered through them. After a few minutes you had enough. "Can you be any louder? An elephant would mal-ke less noise!" You whisper-yelled. While he jumped on one leg, beating off the thorns, he whisper-yelled back: "I am trying my best! Do you think it's easy?" You put your hands on your hips. "Let me think... We are the same height, same build and somehow I manage to not sound like a herd of giant cows... What's your excuse?" He was taken aback for a second. "But I have a sword." He finally said, pouting. You sniffed as indignation, before you turned your back, and made your way to the middle of the woods.

After stamping past at least 700 more trees, you finally held halt at a small pond. It was beautiful. The full moon was reflected in the dark water, little waves rippled over the smooth surface. You smiled softly, taken aback by such a divine sight...Erin bumped into you, as he was still untangling his feet. You cursed, trying to restore your balance, but it was already to late. The ground crumbled under your feet, and you slid a few meters down, right into the small lake. You broke sputtering through the surface, water streaming down your face. You could only open your eyes, to see a big body falling on you.

That body pressed you back under, while you paddled desperate with your arms to get some air. As you were again above the surface, your back was turned on Erin. "You okay?" You asked, while you wiped the water out of your eyes. At the same moment you noticed a few things. 1: Your voice sounded weird. 2: The hand you used to wipe the water from your face, was not exactly... a hand. It was a paw. You turned around wildly, facing Erin. You started at him for a second. Then the situation hit in like a bomb. You started laughing hysterically. "You're... you're a... a poodle!" A very angry, very disapproving poodle looked at you. "You're not any better." He said, while trying to cross his paws. You would have laughed you to death if you weren't exited. "What am I? What am I?" You yelled while chasing around him. "You're a retriever." He said. You made a halt. "A rainbow retriever?" "...Yes." You started to chase your own tail, exited with that. While that wet, disappointed poodle, laid himself down on a rock, angry that you hit the jackpot, or so you assumed. Back on the bank, you found your bandana, that somehow had tangled itself into a bush, and tried to put your head through it. Long story short, it's not that easy if you're a dog.

You jogged to your doggie buddy, and pushed your nose against his head. "You smell like a wet dog." You informed him, taken aback by the smell. He ignored you. Your tail wagged as you pushed him again. "Come-on. You look like a wig-mop right now." You pushed him again and again, until he grew irritated and pushed your face away with his paw. "Why don't you take this serious?" he yelled at you. "It's not like we can change anything about it now. So just lezt us enjoy this experience." You barked back, while tail wagged even more. "Who's last back, is a rainbow squirrel!" You said, as you turned around and starting chasing back to the boat.

A bit short, a bit shabby, I know. But I just imagined Erin as a pouting poodle, and I couldn't let it go.
