ATTACK ON SHIYOU-JIANG ISLAND

An island in the Northern Pacific Ocean, hundreds of kilometres from China's western coast and tens of kilometres from the Philippines Sea. The island beamed with a variety of vegetation that was dominated by tall trees. A spell-binder arrived on the island’s eastern shores on the back of a hunchback whale. Douglas was standing closeby, waiting under the shade of one of the palm trees that lined this part of the island. He was perplexed not to see Ivy and her gang arrive with the spell-bender, but he kept a cool face.

"She may have decided to camp at another place for safety," he thought.

The spell-binder that just arrived hopped down from the massive sea beast. The spell-binder stood straight to observe his surroundings. The whale retracted its mass into deep water. Douglas was finally spotted by the arriving spell-binder. The spell-binder began to tread across the sandy grounds to Douglas.

"Where are they?" Douglas forced himself to sound as calm as possible.
