FILLING THE VOID

"Johann,Johann come sail with me.I`ll take you to farthest deepest bluest sea." "We`ll sail forth forever and forever more""Where the warm winds blow and our sails are always full" "We`ll sail away far from all this gloom" "Well ride the currents south to the Southern Cross" "We`ll swing starboard bearing right around and by the antarctic frost" "and out westerly toward the islands on the most outer rims" "off toward Malay islands we wont be coming back again" "ROOO ROOOO ROO""Stop howling Banjo we are trying to sing here"Wilbur shouted at Banjo... "What a nice day` Wilbur","Have you ever seen such tree`s?",said Cinthia. Wilbur figured they were off the Carolina coast by now.They had been sailing for 2 weeks and he wanted to pull into shore to see if the bottom needed scraping. "Well Cinthia i guess here on this reef we shall set up camp tonite!"Said Wilbur all excited. Cinthia was excited to!This was their first stop and she had never felt such a strong warm wind or such a beautiful Sea as such. "Oh Wilbur does it get much better then this"she said quietly.Banjo jumped over and headed to the shore."Careful Banjo"yelled Wilbur"easy boy hold on i`ll throw you the rope". obeying his Master Banjo turned and grabbed the rope in his teeth and swam toward the shore.Wilbur jumped in after him and swam forth too.After, Cinthia steered as Wilbur pulled them in.All the way in as far as he could so he could check the bottom. "Cinthia take Banjo and walk around!check out our chances,you know what i mean"said Wilbur.They were both so excited to be camping out 2,000 miles away from home.Cinthia was just so high,her dream come true of sorts, she figured but more then that, being in such a beautiful place with Wilbur. "I`ll pick up firewood too Wilbur!"she said gingerly. So they set-up camp,not much of a camp was needed though as it was so warm to them. So warm they slept nude.But still no fooling around with each other just some kissing and hugging..They had lots of cuddling though as young lovers. All to Banjo`s dismay as Wilbur kept kicking him out from his side where Banjo used to curl up. The sleeping net came in handy as the mesquitoes were absolutly horrible though! Cinthia suggested to Wilbur that they ought to explore inland when sunrise came.To Wilbur it was an excellent thought as they had all the time in the world and some fresh water and supplies would be handy"why not?"Wilbur thought,yes a most excellent idea. In the morning Cinthia helped Wilbur load up his musket and pack.They even put a saddlebag on Banjo to carry the fresh water bags.Off they went. The land was very swampy,lots of mesquitoes but the beautiful Spanish Moss and Weeping Willows made up for it."Lots of muddy water "Wilbur thought to himself but he could see the red clay all around him which answered that question. Banjo`s ears shot up for second and Wilbur knew something was near by.Banjo started to growl and Wilbur reached for his gun.Their it was 50 yards away.A huge grizzly looking at them and ready to charge."Wilbur took site with his musket and stood firm as the Bear charged them.Cinthia closed her eyes and hoped Wilburs shot would be true.She also reached for the knife just in case. "boom"went the gun right in the Bears side but it didn`t fall.Banjo raced out to meet the bear. "Yip Yip Yip"went Banjo as he jumped up on the Bear and was snapping away at it.Then Banjo got thrown clear across the way.Wilbur grabbed his knife from Cinthia and charged the Bear as Cinthia reloaded the gun. Up jumped Wilbur and into its chest he buried the knife only to be clawed and thrown by this 1000 lbs. beast who was fixing to maul him.Up Banjo sprung on the Bears back.A good distraction as the Bear was going after Wilbur.Banjo`s teeth sank in the Bears back and the Bear was swinging Banjo around wildly trying to shake him.Wilbur rose and ran for the gun."Dont shoot Cinthia"Dont shoot"screamed Wilbur. Cinthia had the Bear in her aim and was ready to fire.The Bear saw her and charged,she closed her eyes again."BOOM"Cinthia squeezed the trigger. The Bear dropped to the ground dead.So did Banjo.The bullet went through both of them. "NO NO NO NO"OH GOD PLEASE NO!"screamed Wilbur.Cinthia was completely beside herself and weeping hysterically.This went on for a long time until they both composed themself. Wilbur started skinning the Bear for its meat after burying Banjo.After many trips to the boat to store the meat.They noticed they were being followed.There.They spotted it. It was a baby Monkey whom was lost."Oh Wilbur it looks hungry,can we?" "I guess so Cinthia but we need lots of greens and fruits for it so get picking"He said.Wilbur took turns with Cinthia looking for food for the Monkey.The Monkey seemed to be sent to them from somewhere to fill the void immediately. They could not stay here as the pain was too great.....they sailed south the next morning with their new companion.
