"Lottatax!"
Lottatax is looking at you! When you wipe your eyes, Lottatax looks up at Surchin and then looks at you. "Lottatax!"
Surchin says "Surchin!" and wiggles its side spikes!
What? You just realized you have <span class="mu-r">two friends</span> right here? You wipe your eyes again and smile at Surchin and then look at the huge boat again and shake your head at Surchin.
"Humans buy tickets!"
What? Are you really going to stand in line with the humans to buy a ticket, even though you'll have to walk through <span class="mu-r">the mon detector</span>? It seems like you have a plan! You nod at Lottatax and it climbs up onto your back and then you hug Surchin!
"Thanks, Surchin!"
"Surchin!"
[SFX: loud boat horn]
It sounds like the huge boat might be getting ready to leave! You had better hurry!
You and Lottatax run back to the line of humans and after a little while you get to the window! The human on the other side looks at you.
...
You're supposed to tell him where you want to go!
"Bronze Valley!"
The human nods. "Thirty coins."
...
You don't know exactly how much that is! You reach into your jacket pocket and take out your <span class="mu-r">sack of coins</span> and hand it to the human. The human opens it and glances at you and then counts out 30 coins and hands you back the sack and <span class="mu-r">a ticket</span>!
"Your cabin number is on the ticket."
When you get in line to go through the mon detector you look over your shoulder at Lottatax and whisper.
"Hide, Lottatax!"
Lottatax whispers "Lottatax?" and then crawls under your jacket!
When you walk through the mon detector it makes a beeping noise and then a human man wearing a uniform stops you and asks "Do you have any mons on you?"
Lottatax peeks out from your jacket and says "Lottatax!"
The human can't believe it! "Hey, didn't they tell you that you have to properly check your mon?"
Suddenly one of the humans standing in line yells "Hurry up!"
"Yeah, hurry up!"
"Let's move it, already!"
The human wearing a uniform runs his hand through his hair and then looks down at you and Lottatax. "Is this your only mon?"
You're nodding your head!
"Alright, next time, make sure your mon goes through <span class="mu-r">the mon entrance</span>."
What? You're already on the other side of the mon detector? It seems like you really will get to ride on the huge boat all the way to Bronze Valley! You follow some other humans into the boat and up some stairs and come out onto the top of the boat!
When you look over the railing you can see Surchin on the ground! Surchin looks up at you and waves one of its side spikes and says something but you can't hear it because Surchin is too far away! It seems like the huge boat really is huge!
"What? My hat? That mon has my hat!"
It's Diamond and Rattletrap!
"Stop! Turn this barge around!" Diamond looks over the railing at Surchin again and then looks toward your direction!
You hide behind another human just in time!
