Ryan wakes up at 5am and Kannell was laying in his arms. She pops her head up and stretches. She notices Ryan was behind him and tries to remember what happened last night.
She shakes him and wakes him up.
“Hey, this is awkward, but did we do anything last night?” She askes him with a confused tone.
“No, we Did not” He tells her.
“Oh, weird. Well that’s good. What was I doing again and why are you sleeping with me?” She asked trying to remember really hard.
Inside Ryan’s mind he is so happy he didn’t do anything with her. She doesn’t remember anything.
“You passed out, I payed your Tab, and Carried you upstairs” He told her.
“Ahhh. But why is my bra off?” She asked him while feeling herself.
“After I tucked you in you offered me to sleep with you because of last nights Mistake or something like that. I took you on your offer. You said something about wanting me to take off your bra, and I did so. I Spooned you for the whole night, but we didn’t do anything. I can assure you of that” He explained.
She turns around and hugs him with Her Industrial sized Airbags are pressing against him and Her hair all Messy and smelling like Hazel nut.
“Thank you. Most guys would have taken advantage of me, but your awesome” She said as she kiss’s his cheek.
She gets up and stretches with her feet on the ground.
“Still, At the same time I can’t believe you turned down this incredible body” She said as she leans back onto Ryan’s lap. Her head hits something hard that piqued her interest.
“Well then someone is excited this morning” She told him as she moves her head onto her chest.
“Ya it’s a morning thing, you know how it goes” He told her with a little embarrassment.
“Hang on do you think I am Ugly? Is that why you didn’t Bang me last night?” She asked him flipping the mood of the moment around.
“No, Like I told you the other night you Sent me out in the middle of woods, and I was taken care of by a very rare, and very caring Succubus. She read my dreams and told me Last thing I need right now is sex. So, I am taking her advice and focusing on other things” He told her.
“Umm okay. I thought you killed them all” She asked seeming confused.
“There is another one out there that isn’t a monster. She calls herself “Mother Cinderella”. Shes pretty nice and wise. I have problems right now that I am going through and I’m just taking her advice. Cuddling is all I can do for a while. I’m not dating anyone, or anything like that for a while. My mind is set on that for a while” He told her while stretching his arms out.
“Well then, at least your different” She said while reaching up and running her hand around his short auburn hair.
He gets up out of bed and puts his feet on the ground. He pulls out his cellphone and puts on the Song “Its Far better to Learn” by Saosin . He lays next to her and lays his head on her lap.
“If you only knew my life story” he told her while laughing. She just sits up and pets his head as she explained his whole ordeal here. He tells her the same thing He told Citra while the song played in the background.
“Oh wow, I see, I am sorry. Like I said at least you are a nice guy, and not an asshole. I mean ya, don’t lead that chick on, its bad” She told him. Ryan can see the horizon in the background lighting up. The sun was coming up and He was getting excited.

“Well I have a good day planned for me; I’m going to take your sailboat out for a sail today” He told her while patting her leg
“Like I said I don’t need it anymore I’m an Advanced Arcane mage I can just teleport wherever I want to go” She told him with a smile.
“Alrighty” he tells her.
He puts his shoes on and walks over to the bank. He pulls out 200 more gold and walks over to a Tailor.
“Good evening Sir how are you!” the woman at the shop greeted him.
“Hey, I need a change of clothes can you repair these?” He asked her while pointing to his shirt and shorts.
“I could, but I have a sale on clothes right now that might be your style. She bends down and picks up a box and digs through it.
She pulls out a Scarlet shirt and pants that had a black and maroon Digital like camo pattern to them, a teal colored shirt and light blue pants, and Then a Sapphire blue shirt, and Royal blue shorts.
They all seemed to fit his personality He likes the color blue, but the red and black was sexy, and the teal matched the sailboat, so he bought all them for 20 gold.
“Thank you!” The woman said as he was leaving, suddenly he realized what he wanted to do.
He walks into the bathhouse takes a Hot bath for 30 minutes, and changes into the Teal and light blue clothes and then walks back to the Tailor.
“Can you repair these for me?” He asked her.
“Yes, I can. I’ll do it for 5 gold” he She told him as she was looking at all the holes and burn marks.
He puts down 5 gold on the counter and smiles at her.
“Take your time its not a rush” he told her as he runs over to starks Shake. He walks inside and he was fixing someone’s Saddle.
“Morning Mr. Stark" Ryan said as he walks in.
“Ah good morning to you. Just fixing this saddle for Mr. Warren” He told him as he tore off some leather straps and threw them by Ryan’s feet.
“Can you throw those away for me?” he asked him.
Ryan bends over and realized he can use these.
“Can I have these I need to put straps on my board, and these are perfect” He asked him.
“Take them I don’t need them” He told Ryan.
Ryan with his board in his hand takes a few screws and bends the Straps into a Semi circle and Screws down both sides. He has a places 2 screws in each side and repeats on the other side. He can now use the straps to keep the board on his feet.
“Well I’m headed over to the beach over there and going to go Landboarding” He told the old man.
“Have fun! But Be careful there are Giant Bats, giant Yellow Jackets, and wild pigs all over that island. At night It said to have Mosquitoes size of small birds over there! He warned Ryan.
“Thank you for the heads up! I will most definitely be careful! He said as he grabs his board and his kite. As he walks outside 2 kids run past him again.
“My Wife’s Cooking is so bad, we usual Pray AFTER our food!” On of the kids screamed. As he ran past him.
Then Came a little blonde girl chasing after the boy with a Club Screaming: ”What do you get a man who has everything in life? A WOMAN, she’ll tell him how everything works!” She screamed as she was catching up to the boy.

The Female Deputy was cheering “You Go Camille! That’s My Girl!”
Ryan walks all the way to the Seawall and see’s his newly gifted Sailboat. The faces into the wind and judges the wind speed and direction. The wind was picking up, it was about 7 knots outside.
He puts in his board, His kite, and then takes out the sails that were in the boat. He Ties a knot and hoists the mail sail up the Mast, and then secures foot and the clew of the sail down to the boom.
He then makes sure his Rudder is in place and his Sheet ropes are in place.
Since he was alone, he didn’t feel like he needed to raise the Jib, so he left it off.
He pushes the boat off the shore and hops in. He pulls a hand full of sheet line in and he starts moving. He starts a beam Reach angle away from the shore since the wind was coming from the East, and then when he gets away from shore, he puts in his dagger board and the boat starts leaning. He moves toward the high side of the boat and takes a deep breath. He was going to Close reach sail the boat all the way to that island a mile away. He puts on the Song “Set Sail” From Horizons and lets all the worry slip away.
He leans back and sits on the gunwale and looks around. As he starts to get further and further out the wind becomes Stronger.
The waves were fun to cut through in this little Protected saltwater river. He Finds a point he wants to land at and Decided to Try his hand at Tacking the boat. He Turns the boat to Starboard (Right) and begins to tack through the headwind. As he transitions back over, he ducks and the boom swings over him and he switches sides on the boat. He sets this course for about 15 minutes. While sailing he pulls out his phone and puts on the song “Bondi Street Blues” By Amity Affliction During the song he heard some lyrics he just couldn’t resist to sing along with.
“And the boat sails on like you sang in your song,
and my mind feels clearer several years on.
And the ship that was sailing on,
those storm ridden seas
was my heart and your words gave my heart back to me”
The song was rejuvenating, suddenly he worries about something. He checks his phone and was worried that a buff may have been used. When He notices the buffs were set to off his mind felt clearer.
Coming up to the islands, He has two options. The left island or the Right one. He chooses the left island and goes in to land.
He pulls his Dagger board up as he gets closer to the water and then completely out when he can see the water is shallow enough to put his feet down. Depowers the main sail, and then brings the main sail down and sail under the deck.
He climbs out and pulls the ship to shore and ties the bow to a tree.
He lays down and takes a deep breath on this own private island of his. He smiles and Sets up his kite. He puts sand on the end of the kite and runs the lines out to the Fixed control bar of this 3 square meter Kite.
He then grabs his board and gets ready. He puts his sword on his shoulder, and then Yanks back on the bar and the kite raises up on the side of the wind window. As it climbs higher and higher the pull is getting stronger.
“IT FLIES!” He screamed with excitement.
He takes out his phone and Puts on the song “Up and Away” From Can’t Stop Won’t Stop. This song was put on Global for some reason, but he doesn’t care. He is 1 mile away from anyone.
He Straps the board to his feet and dives the kite down.
The kite starts to pull him forward and cheers.
“Landboarding In an RPG world. Life can’t be better than this!” He thought to himself.
He starts Rolling down the beach and watching the scenery go by him. His Wheels were perfect for what they were made of. They were made of A hard rubber but had no air in them. He wasn’t complaining. This place was like Florida but without the damn Condos everywhere and Tourists. He starts flying down the beach and Starts jamming to the song.
He rolls by some Deer that were just watching him, and he ignores them. Holding onto the control bar and leaning back he gets ready to hit an uneven patch of sand in the shape of a ramp. He hits it and jumps 10 feet into the air and comes down gently.
“This is Just like home! Life is going to be Perfect here!” He screams. Suddenly he looks back and see’s something is chasing him. It was a giant Bat. Ryan smiles at it and Focus. He takes one hand of the bar and with his Left hand he casts [Detonate] on the thing. The poor thing goes down in 1 hit and he focus’s back whats in front of him. Suddenly some wild pigs come out of the woods and start chasing him. Ryan just smiles. “Come Get some!” He screams! He Fires Detonate and twice and brings down the 1 of the boars. When the other one gets close Ryan pulls out his sword and Attacks it while still being pulled by the kite. Using his left hand Felt weird because it was his weakest hand, he felt a little stronger today for some reason. He thought maybe carrying those tar buckets may have increased his Strength.
He Swings at the boar as it tries to bite him and then notices a hole coming up. He takes a deep breath and Try’s to fire [Detonate] out of his hand with the sword in his hand. Suddenly the sword glows red and fires a blast out of it. The boar goes down and Ryan notices a head ach coming on. He puts his sword back in his sheath while still moving and pulls out his phone. His mana was at 10% but his mana Sickness doesn’t hurt as bad as it did the other day.
Suddenly he had a Funny idea. If there is wildlife here, why not landboard and Grind them?
“I could Kite them!” He said out loud with an uncontrollable laugh
Ryan thinks really hard about this and wants to do it. But he will do it when he reaches the end of the island. Sails a Beam reach (Crosswind) to the north of the island where the island ends for 1 mile and then Turns around and Beam Reaches back the other way. He was having so much fun. The last time he was this happy was before school on his motorcycle. He stops riding halfway back and needs to pee. He holds his kite up at the 12’oclock position and Whips it out and pees. With the kite in the neutral position and not pulling really hard he pulls out his phone and wants to test something out.
He notices that all the EDM and Extreme Bass boosted songs are Mandatory Global volume. He wants to test this out.
He puts on “In the Dark (Ft. Halsey) From Bring Me The Horizon again and puts on the experience gain Buff. He remembers this song doesn’t have limited number times he could use the buff. The 20% experience buff was extreamly awesome for him. All He had to do was listen to this song on global, it will draw out the beasts, he could Kite them, Kill them, Rinse and Repeat.
With the Song Shaking the whole damn Island he gets back on his board and dives his kite; he picks up speed and Jams out to Bass and tempo of the song.
Out of the Woods come 3 more bats. He smiles and starts blasting them. And 1 shoting them each, he has a headache again but Draws out his sword in his Right hand and gets ready for even more surprises. 2 more pigs start running out and he gets ready for a Strike. They catch up to him and he goes for the throat. He takes down this pig and the other one on his ass gets ready to bite him. He winds up again and takes it out. He rides all the way to the other side of the island killing creatures that come out and try to attack him. When the song ends, He gets off his board and looks for another song.
