[AM: Gonna prewrite multiple chapters just in case this happens again.]
(Symor's POV)
Sunbeam is coming? well then we're safe.

[Incoming message]

"Another one?"

Everyone was surprised that there were two messages in a single hour, that includes me.
"Shall we play it then."
"We should."

I didn't expect that Denzel to properly expand the base.
The meeting room looks epic, but why are there 10 seats? Is what I have in my mind.

[Playing Message: "Hello? is anyone alive?" "Now that just sounded rude." "Do it better Sham, there might be people who survived." "Yeah, that message last time gave the hint that Mecole survived." Coordinates attached]

Denzel was surprised…
"Definitely Vina, Chelsea and Shameh."
"Its definitely them."
"No doubt about it."
"Yeah, for sure."
"Where are they located?"
"South of the Aurora."
"Let's build our submarines and the P.R.A.W.N. suits first."

We wasted four hours to collect materials for the Cyclops (submarine), the P.R.A.W.N. suit, and pressure compensators as well.

We built six submarines along with the exosuits (P.R.A.W.N. suit), we also made the pressure compensators. I began making something manually, like a harpoon for the grappling arm of the exosuits.
It is basically like a metal handle, which I used plasteel ingots for the handle so it doesn't really melt that easily.

We colored our submarines to our favor. I colored mine with purple, Michael colored his with red. Denzel colored his with yellow. Jake colored his with blue. Karl and Mecole left their subs white for now.

Each of our P.R.A.W.N. suits have different features on the arms. Denzel has a grappling arm and a drill arm. I attached my harpoon on the grappling arm, and a drill arm on the left. Michael kept a fist arm and a drill arm on his side though. The rest just went with the fist arm and a grappling arm.

We began adventuring to the south of the Aurora. Its still half a day before sunbeam arrives.

2 Hours later...

"Its dark."
"I hear a reaper."
"Shut up Denz."

Michael felt a chill when Denzel said about hearing a reaper (Reaper Leviathan).

"A reaper is somewhere around the island but looks like we docked somewhere safe."
"Then, shall we find Chelsea and the others?"
"Lez go."

We began adventuring around the island looks like Chelsea and the others are in the center of the island (not really when I saw that moonpool of theirs).

Karl went over to his jokes now.
"Jake! its Vina!"
"Ok then."
Jake, what you just did was completely negate what Karl said, Vina saw us and waved her hand at us. Is it just me or did she suddenly grow a little taller?

We followed her to their base...

"What perfect place to set a base, it looks akward to see this in land though." - Denzel
"We agree" - Jake, Karl, and Michael

Hmm, it does look akward to see this on land. Unless if they excavated a cave.

Both groups began sharing their information. Well, I left the room since imma find some stuff like edible food, and scannable stuff.

I can still hear them through the earpiece though…
It looks like some of them have a "heartwarming" reunion, but Denzel went like: "Should we leave the reunion part to them and began sharing information?"
Now that is just rude Denz.
"Wow Denz, why won't you try to read the situation if it comes to reunion."
"Crap, I forgot about the earpieces, sorry."
"Well then, carry on."
Ohh lemme scan this tree, looks fruitful.

And I began to listen to the information sharing while I'm outside.

Chelsea started sharing her information…
"Well, first of all the three of us crashed in this island. We don't have a problem when it comes to food and materials but, whenever we try to dive into the ocean, we shiver from an audible roar even from a distance."
"Its a reaper." - Denzel
"Definitely a reaper." - Michael
"How did you know the name of the creature?" -Chelsea
"We scanned it, Denzel nearly died though." - Karl
"I'm risky enough to risk only myself but not the others. If you remember my motto: 'No matter how much pain is inflicted on me, I will endure, and protect my friends no matter what.' its just super cliche." - Denzel
"Yeah but absorbing a giant cut from the mandible from your right hip, up to the left shoulder, is going too far." - Michael
(AM: if you see any "mantipoles" that means I messed up badly. It should be mandibles.)
"Bajeebus." - Chelsea
"Denz, you just love to risk yourself." - Me

Well that is the truth, he risks himself too much but he's kind of a nice guy.

Chelsea continued…
"With that side of the information completed, I should talk about a creature that looks like a ghost, and its HUUUUGE, not just that, we also found some creatures that have three legs but seems like they're defensive since we scanned them."

Now that is interesting. Maybe we should call it a Ghost Leviathan.

"Chels?" - Denzel
"What is it?" - Chelsea.
"Where did you find that creature?" - Denzel
"NOT HAPPENING!" - Michael and Karl

Man, my line was stolen.

"Ples, I wanna scan it!" - Denzel
"REST FIRST!" - Michael

Ouch, wasn't that a 'friendly slap in the face' move?

"ANYway, I ran out of information. Denz, your turn." - Chelsea
"Well, we landed on water (surface water) and just began adventuring for no fks reason. We got a whole lot of stuff though, so explaining all of them will be a pain, imma just send all info I have on my PDA to yours. I can only say that we have 6 submarines, 6 seamoths, and 6 exosuits." - Denzel
"HOLD ON!, we have 6 subs, sea moths and exosuits right? then 666, ILLUMINATI CONFRIMMED." - Michael

Wow, an Illuminati joke already.
2 Hours before sunbeam arrives

"Guys, shall we wait at the coordinates now?" - Mecole
"I agree, we should be saved by that time." - Michael
"Then we should bring stuff that could have a high value." - Karl
"That reminds me, I have 9 pieces of diamonds here." - Denzel
"Rich" - Me
"Definitely rich" - Chelsea
"Treat us Denz." - Shameh
"Free computer when we get home." - Jake
"Fuck" - Denzel

And we began adventuring to the island where Mecole, Jake and Karl landed.
Good thing I brought my snacks.

Under the Aurora.

We used our submarines to travel, Vina entered Jake's submarine, Shameh chose Mecole's submarine, and Chelsea chose Michael's submarine. Denzel said that he won't allow more people in his sub since his sub is in the front. While travelling, we heard a few Reapers.

"What the actual fuck." - Denzel
"Why?" - Me
"I hear reapers, not just one, I hear two in the front, one in the west, east and south." - Denzel
"Shall we rise up to the surface then." - Me
"Good idea" - Michael

All submarines rose up to the surface and continued travelling to the alien island.
2 Minutes before sunbeam arrives…

We reached our destination, we sat down and light some fire using a laser cutter.

We sat down, I wore my new hat (Cave crawler hat), and began talking some things that we miss.

"I wonder if my skills of gaming will deteriorate." - Jake
"Oh it will, our gaming skills will deteriorate." - Denzel

[Incoming Message: "This is the Sunbeam, Ohh, I see signs of people, there are nine? Hold on, we'll welcome all of you to Earth aga- what is that. Warning! a massive heat signature is found at the island. No! shut it down! quick!]

"WOAH! the sunbeam got BEAMED." - Michael

I was looking at the sunbeam like its a firework show, I was just eating lantern fruits and just held my brand new hat.

The others are just showing a face that says that they predicted this.
"Well, how can we turn this thing off?" - Vina
"I'd say we go in." - Denzel
"We have a better idea Denz, how bout YOU go in and show the contents of the inside area." - Michael
"Wimp." - Denzel

Denzel went inside the base bringing some crystals and colored artifacts.
