Another surprise awaited us on deck: a pale blonde was laying on my deck, tanning. Her sunblock had been overapplied for months, or else she was amazingly light-complected. Ruby and I walked over to her, grabbed her hands, and pulled her upright.
"Welcome aboard 'Sailing Master', Miss. I am SirChuck, this is my Bondage Cruise. This is Mistress Ruby, Domme to all aboard except me and my crew. And your name, my dear?"
"Kaori-san is my name, SirChuck, Mistress Ruby. I request to join your cruise, if you will accept my humble presence."
"Your presence is welcome, Kaori-san," Ruby responded for the duo, "however we cannot spend time as we would wish welcoming you now. Two of our crew are ashore and have not returned; we are concerned harm may have come to them."
"If I may be so bold, Mistress, I have been on the island 4 months now, since my solo-around-the-world sailboat hit a mine and sank a few miles off shore. I believe it to be my humble ability to show you where your crewpeople may be. There is a place here I call 'Dreamland'. It has an unusual property; all attention to duty and rational thought seems suppressed, and dreams come about which control the mind. I fell victim to it myself, and sat under the rock overhang for an untold time; this is why I am so pale, I think. The spell only failed when thirst overcame me, and I had to crawl to the spring. May I show you where it is, Mistress, SirChuck?"
"One moment, please." (I turned my head). "NICK!"
He hustled out of the wheelhouse. "Sir?"
"Nick, grab the Enfield, a couple hand-torches, a Very pistol, and a radio. Let Amy know she needs to keep everyone aboard, and get them on making supper. Monitor the radio... she knows the drill." I told him.
3 minutes later we crossed the gangway, following Kaori-san. She led us quickly across the island, and, sure as can be, the two ladies sat just where she said they'd be. Now the problem was to figure how to get them out.
Nick grabbed the Very pistol and fired a bright green flare directly in their field of vision. They both started awake: stood up and looked around.
Kaori-san said, "Do not breath deeply! Rush this way! Quickly, please!"
sari and myya ran to them, and soon all were back aboard "Sailing Master", safely. They went below, had a wonderful supper, and listened to Kaori-san's tale.
