The other humans push Surchin, Vineapple, and Professor Mulberry through the strange bushes but you wait until they're almost out of sight before you tip-toe after them.
It looks like there's <span class="mu-r">a long wooden dock</span> on the beach with <span class="mu-r">a big boat</span> floating at the end of it! Everyone else gets on the boat and you hear the motor but you're not even on the dock yet!
You run across the beach with Lottatax on your back and run down the dock and jump onto the back edge of the General's boat just in time! You climb up the back and peek over but it doesn't look like any of the humans saw you. You don't even see any humans on this end of the boat!
Lottatax peeks over your shoulder and whispers "Lottatax?"
You glance at Lottatax and nod your head and then climb up over the edge and look around.
What? You think this boat might be bigger than Professor Mulberry's shack? There's even a little building with a door on the boat! Maybe that's where Surchin and your other friends are! You crawl across the floor and hide behind the little building and peek out toward the door just as one of the humans wearing uniforms walks by but he doesn't see you!
You peek out again and see some humans going over to the other end of the boat. This might be your chance to sneak through the door! You look back at Lottatax.
"Ready?"
"Lottatax!"
You stand up and tip-toe across the floor toward the door but suddenly Diamond steps out of the door and grins!
"I knew you wouldn't keep me waiting."
Rattletrap slithers around the corner of the little building and glares down at you and says "Ssssssss..."
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">Rattletrap's lure is starting to glow.</span></span>
You look behind you and a bunch of humans step out from the other side of the little building behind you!
Lottatax climbs down your leg onto the floor of the boat and its head spikes flatten back and it looks between Rattletrap and Diamond and says "Lottatax!"
Suddenly Lottatax jumps into the air at Diamond!
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">
Lottatax is challenging Diamond!
Lottatax attacks with Fangs!
</span></span>
[SFX: snapping noise]
What? Diamond just caught Lottatax in midair? Diamond holds Lottatax by the scruff of its neck and grins. "I handle wild mons like you all the time." She looks at Rattletrap and holds Lottatax out toward Rattletrap's lure! "Rattletrap!"
Rattletrap swings its head around and looks at Lottatax!
Lottatax is squirming around as hard as it can but it can't get free!
Rattletrap's lure begins to shimmer and Lottatax can't look away! Suddenly Lottatax goes limp and its tongue hangs out!
Diamond is grinning at you!
The General takes a step forward. "Alright, we played it your way. Now what's so special about this brat?"
The General's Barleen says "Barleeeeeen!"
>Take your baseball cap off in front of the General
>Cry for help (roll 1d100)
>Jump into the water and try to swim away (roll 1d100)
