"wait! stop!"

ricky, gina, carlos and big red all pant as they ran as fast as they could to the port of the hawaiian mainland, watching the last ferry of the day decrease in size

ricky groans in frustration as he runs his fingers through his hair

"we need to get to that island." he breathes as he looks around different boats

"oh! wait-how about we just use the car?" big red suggests

they all look at big red with confused looks

"what?" gina sighs

"yeah! i saw it in a movie-"

"that was the incredibles. it's an animated movie. if we use that method, we drown." carlos says

big red takes a deep breath "i'm sorry! when i'm under pressure i just say dumb things!"

"only when you're under pressure huh?" gina asks

big red gives her a glare and ricky sighs, desperately looking around for any sign of a boat

suddenly, he sees one large ferry filled with a cattle of sheep

"hey!" ricky calls as he runs towards the man getting on it "are you heading to lanai?"

the man looks at him and nods "yes, need a ride?"

ricky, big red and gina all exchange looks of certainty and nod

"oh hell no!" carlos exclaims "i'm allergic to anything un-"

he gets cut off by gina's grip on his forearm as she pulls him onto the boat.

she was unusually strong, way too strong for carlos to fight against her, so he was forced to have a boat ride with a bunch of sheep

ricky leaned against the railings of the boat as he watched the different islands pass by him, his heart rate accelerating with every meter they approached the smallest island further away

"you okay?"

he looks to his right to see gina standing next to him and he takes a deep breath

"what-what if i'm too late?" he asks quietly as he looks down at the water

gina smiles sadly and puts her hand on his shoulder "a prince charming is never too late."

ricky cracks a small smile and lets out a breath as he looks up to the island, taking in deep breaths to try and calm his nerves

the four arrive not too long after and all get off the boat, thanking the man as they part their ways

darkness was falling and ricky saw that there were no cars

he looked to see that they were basically in the middle of nowhere and he needed to get to nini fast

gina gasps in happiness when she sees someone with a horse approaching them and runs towards the middle of the road to stop them

"hey!" she yells as she waves her hands "hello!"

the horse comes to stop abruptly and gina, carlos, big red and ricky all look at the woman riding it with pleading eyes

"okay, so you see that?" liam asks as he points to an island

nini nods "yes,"

"that is the island we went to yesterday," he says

"it's so small from here." she laughs as she continues to look around
