Chapter 2: Lava, Ghosts and Ships
Sally and Patrick go through the Lava Ghost Land. They look around and what they see are dead trees, and many lava ponds.

Sally: what a dangerous place. We should be very careful!

Patrick: in which direction shall we go?

Sally: to the east of course! Come on!

They turn to the east and see a dead forest. They go through it.

Sally: this island is not big. We shall get through here pretty quick.

But then, they see a tree start to burn because of the a nearby lava pond. Then, the fire spreads out!

Patrick: oh crap!

Sally: quickly! run!

They run away until they are at the start of the island again. They look back and see the entire dead forest burn.

Sally: like i said, this place is dangerous!

Patrick: should we take another way?

Sally: we have to. Let''s go to the west.

Sally and Patrick turn to the west and move on. After a while, they see a stone house behind some dead trees.

Patrick: a house? who is living there?

Sally: a better question: why are they living here?

Sally goes to the door and knocks. After 4 seconds, a girl with light blue hair, a dark blue shirt and high leather boots opens the door.

?????: oh, hello! who are you two?

Sally: hi, my name is Sally.

Patrick: I'm Patrick.

?????: nice to meet you! my name is Siegy. why don't you come in?

They enter the house and close the door. In the house are two beds, a table with five chairs, a furnace and some shelves with food. The house has no windows.

Siegy: i live here with my brother. He is currently outside and searches for some mushrooms.

Patrick: why has the house no windows?

Siegy: because of the lava. every once in a while, a lava flow passes by. We are safe in this house, though.

Sally: ah, that makes sense.

But suddenly, the island starts to shake.

Siegy: oh, oh! the lava flow comes! and Gary is still outside!

Siegy opens the door and looks outside. She sees her brother running to the house while everything is shaking.

Siegy: Gary! hurry up!

Gary looks to his left and already sees the lava coming. Gary then quickly enters the house and Siegy closes the door. After that, they can hear the lava outside.

Gary: phew, that was close.

Gary wears a blue shirt, has green hair and green eyes.

Gary: and who are you guys?

Patrick: my name is Patrick. And this is Sally!

Gary: and i'm Gary! why are you here?

Sally: we are searching a treasure. Therefore, we need to pass this island.

Siegy: ohhh, a treasure? sounds cool!

After 2 minutes, the lava passed by, and they can go out again.

Siegy: the lava is gone, guys!

Sally: good, i think we should go now. It was nice to meet you two.

Gary: yeah, it was. see ya!

Patrick: see ya!

Patrick and Sally exit the house.

Patrick: what nice people, huh?

Sally: yeah, you're right.

They move on to the east and after some walking, they see the water. As they go to the water and look to the west, they can see a little boat.

Sally: look, a boat! we can use that to cross over the water.

They go the boat but already see a person sitting inside of it.

Sally: uh, excuse me, but is that your boat?

The person stands up and looks at them.

????: indeed it is, and it's been a while since i saw travellers around here. My name is Xono Volva. Xono for short.

Patrick: well, i'm Patrick and this is Sally.

Xono: Sally and Patrick. ah, alright. Do you want something?

Sally: could you bring us to the Crystal Snow Land?

Xono: the Crystal Snow Land? of course! but there is one problem.

Patrick: what problem?

Xono: to start my ship, i need to push the red button here.

Xono points at a hole in the boat.

Xono: but this Ghost stole it!

Patrick: G-Ghost?

Sally: dude, this is the Lava Ghost Land!

Xono: whatever, it would be pretty cool if you could bring me my button back from the Ghost.

Patrick: and... where is that Ghost?

Xono: it's in that sunken ship over there. It's already on land.

Sally: ok, and don't worry, we will bring your button back.

Sally runs to the ship and Patrick follows her. As they arrived at the ship, they look for a entrance.

Patrick: do you see a entrance?

Sally looks down and sees a hatch infront of them. She opens it.

Sally: here is the entrance. Let's go.

They climb down to the inside of the ship. Inside are some hammocks and some barrels.

Patrick: nothing interesting here.

Sally: the Ghost is probably invisible.

She looks around and sees another door at the end of the room.

Sally: hey Pat! there is a door!

As they approach the door, the door opens from itself.

Patrick gulps.

Sally: don't be that scared! It's just a ghost.

They enter the room and look around. Inside the room is a big red chair, a table, shelves and three chests.

Patrick: maybe there is something in these chests!

They open seperate chests and Patrick finds the red button inside of the one Chest.

Patrick: Sally! i got the but-

But suddenly, the door closes from itself and the Ghost appears infront of the window.

The Ghost: how dare you to enter this ship? and that button is mine so give it back!

Sally: don't lie! This button belongs to Xono. Get another button or something.

The Ghost: no! He wants to have this button, so i bring him this button.

Patrick: who is "he"?

The Ghost: you alive creatures won't understand it...

The Ghost makes the chair fly into the air and shoots it at them. Patrick blocks the attack with his hammer.

The Ghost: good, but how about this?

The Ghost makes the three chests fly into the air aswell, and shoots them at Sally and Patrick.

Sally dodges the first chest, Patrick blocks the second chest but gets hitted by the third chest slightly by the leg.

Patrick: ou! don't you have anything better to do, you Ghost?

Sally grabs a rock from the ground and aims it at The Ghost.

The Ghost: what is? do you want to "hit" me?

Sally throws but since he is a Ghost, the rock flies through him and destroys the window.

The Ghost: oops, you missed!

But Sally and Patrick already run outside.

The Ghost: hey, come back here!

Sally and Patrick run back to Xono.

Sally: Xono! we got the button.

Xono: excellent! now give it to me, please.

Sally gives Xono the button and he puts it there, where the button was located before.

Xono: here we go!

Xono pushes the button and the little boat quickly transforms into a huge ship, which starts to fly up.

Xono: to the Crystal Snow Land!

The Ship starts to fly forward.

Patrick: what the-

Xono: as long as the ship is in the air, you can look around. I will tell you if we arrived at the island.

Sally and Patrick go seperate ways to look around the ship. Patrick soon finds a room with "Central" on it. He opens the door.

Inside the room is a chair in the middle and a little cat next to it.

Patrick: awww...

Patrick pets the cat and looks at the chair. He got scared and nearly fell down, but what he saw is a dead body which looked exactly as Xono.

Patrick: this is Xono, but wo is-

He got interrupted by Xono's voice.

Xono: we arrived at the Crystal Snow Land. Please take the exit.

Patrick exits the ship and sees Xono and Sally, who already outside.

Xono: so, here we are.

Sally: thank you for bringing us here.

Xono: no problem, but i gotta go now. Bye!

Sally: bye!

Xono enters his ship and flys away. Sally looks at Patrick.

Sally: is something, Pat?

Patrick: i don't know if you will believe me, but i saw a dead body in the Central room, which looked exactly like Xono!

Sally: ok, thats... strange, but you shouldn't think about that. we rather should get across this island.

Patrick: alright.

Sally and Patrick go on, but Sally already noticed something weird...
