The boat was crowed but for sure but this was the best vacation that Rose had ever had. She was currently laying out on the front “sun deck” area of the small yacht that her best friend Taylor’s boyfriend Sam family owned. There where nine of them on this yacht enjoying the warm weather and clear blue water as they cruised around the Caribbean Sea. They all had just finished college and would soon be heading out into the real world or off to grad school.
The five of the six women where currently crowded at the front of the boat dressed in only bikinis as they worked on their tans. Rose looked to her right to see Taylor had rolled over onto her back moving her long blonde hair to one side to avoid any tan lines. On the other side of her Amanda, whom had the largest bust of any women on this boat but was probably the shyest of them all was getting up.
“I am heading in do you want something to drink?” inquired Amanda as she adjusted her top.
“I am good.” Said the other women currently on the deck, Stacy. She was not the working on a tan per say, she was but she was propped against the side of the ship working on a tan while reading a book. Her boyfriend Mike was likely doing the same thing with the boys in who where fishing off the back of the ship. The two of them where both bookworms but where arguably the smartest people anyone in their friend group had ever meet. Her short blonde hair was somewhat hidden under a large sunhat.
“I’ll take a water.” Answered Rose as she sat up, she needed to get her back as well. Unlike her friend Taylor she didn’t have to put her hair to one side, her shoulder length red hair wasn’t going to be an issue. She did have to add more sunscreen then the other women, she was a daughter of Ireland for sure and burned easily. “Thanks.”
“Tell us if you can hear the two Ks or not, I would rather not hear them if I have to go back in.” asked Taylor
The two Ks, where Kenny and Kelly, the two of them had spent most of the day in “their” cabin and both of them where screamers as they did it. Amanda shrugged before she headed in.
In the back of the ship, three fishing lines where dropped off the back of the ship.
“I can’t believe I haven’t gotten anything yet.” Stated Rose’s boyfriend, Nate as he looked at his line with sussion in those blue eyes.
“Fishing takes longer then ten minutes…maybe if you didn’t recast your line every ten minutes you would get something.” Countered Sam as he sat in a chair with a beer in his hands, his cold eyes watching his line for any sign of a bite.
“He is right.” Added the other guy who was fishing with them, Mike as he sat with a book in his hand reading while waiting for a bite on his line. “You need to learn to be calm.”
“GUYS!” yelled Amanda’s voice from behind them causing everyone to look toward her.
“What is it?” inquired Sam as he turned to look toward the gally area.
“There is an island over there which wasn’t there before.” Announced Amanda as everyone began to look around and there rising up maybe 4 miles away was an island which they hadn’t been there before.
“What the?” inquired Sam as everyone began to gather, sunbathing and fishing was forgotten as even Kenny and Kelly came out of their room to see what was going on.
They began to circle the island as Sam pulled the boat closer to the island.
“How the hell could an island just appear?” inquired Rose as they circled the island.
“I don’t know but it isn’t on GPS or any map.” Stated Sam as he pulled the ship up to a long stretch of crystal white beach. By now the sun was starting to set.
“A mysterious unmapped island…this sounds like a the start of a horror movie.” Added Nate as he looked to his girlfriend rose who nodded her head. “I think we should get out of here.”
Everyone nodded their heads aside from Sam who was looking down at the radar with a frown on his face.
“I think we should stay here.” Said Sam
“Why?” inquired his girlfriend Taylor
“There is a storm coming on radar…coming on fast…I would rather use the island for cover then try to deal with a storm at night.” Explained Sam “If we remain offshore we will be fine and by morning the storm should be gone and we can leave.”
“Alright…but I think this still sounds like the start of a horror movie.” Stated Nate “Someone needs to be up all night.”
“With a storm like we have coming two people need to be up incase something happens.” Stated Sam
“Well…I’ll start to get dinner ready and hopefully we can all get some rest and get away from here.” Stated Amanda as she looked at the island.
