CHAPTER 3 (Zizzy)
Me and Pony left the detective Minitoon to rest. Just before I left though I took Mr Stitchies lantern and placed it on a desk beside Minitoon's bunk. Then I took his hat and placed it next to the lantern. I looked at Minitoon's eyepatch, I thought about taking it off, but I decided not to. I went out the door, and Pony closed it.
"Now what?" Pony asked.
"We go speak to Kona about diving into dangerous waters." I replied.
***
I knocked on Kona's Office door. It had Kona's Office in big ruby letters on the door, so I was pretty sure this was Kona's office. Someone answered the door, it was Kona.
"Zizzy! Pony! What brings you here?" He asked.
"We wanted to talk to you." Pony replied.
"Ok, come on in then." He held the door open for us. We walked inside, then he closed the door. Me and Pony sat together on a couch besides Kona's office chair. Kona sat on his chair and looked at us. "So what did you want to talk to me about?" He asked.
"When are we going to set off under the sea?" I asked.
"Well, I've sent Robby and Mimi to go gather some supplies for us, once they return we should be ready to dive. I've also sent Georgie and Zee to go check on Giraffy and Katie, they should recover on the same day as Minitoon if my calculations are correct. " He replied.
" Well, that's wonderful. Ok, we'll leave you to it. " I said. Me and Pony stood up.
" Goodbye, you two! " Kona waved.
" Goodbye, Kona!" We waved. Then we left the room.
***
A knock at the enterance/exit door to the submarine we were in. I opened the door. Mimi and Robby stood there with bags of hopefully food and drink.
"Did you get any carrots?" Pony asked eagerly.
"Yes." Mimi said, throwing him a carrot. Pony caught it and began munching on it. 'Him and his carrots.' I thought.
"We have gathered enough supplies for approximately fourteen days and seven point six hours." Robby said.
"Wow, hopefully that's enough." I said.
"Hopefully." Mimi agreed. Pony looked like he had swallowed his carrot whole.
"Wow... That was SO good! Anyway, is the military coming with us? Like Sgt. Monroe and his soldiers?" Pony asked.
"The current reply right now is not certain." Robby replied.
"Ok, then." Pony said, then he wandered off.
"Sgt. Monroe said most of the military has either been killed or gone missing. The only soldiers that he knows are ok, are his two companion and partner soldiers, them mouse and the bear, that's not counting William of course, because Sgt. Monroe doesn't know whether to count him as being in the army. " Mimi said.
" Uh huh. " I said, taking in the information.
" I believe, Kona's having a meeting with Sgt. Monroe now to decide whether he is coming. " Mimi said.
" What do you hope will happen? " I asked.
" I think we need all the help we can get, so I'd be glad if they came along with us." Mimi replied.
"I agree." I said.
"I have been summoned by Master Kona." Robby said then he put his bag of shopping in my hands, and he walked off.
"Do you mind putting these away? I've got to go follow Kona." Mimi said.
"Sure." I replied, as she put her bag of shopping next to me on the floor.
"Thanks!" She said, then she ran off after Robby.
