“Thanks, man!” That was all he said. But the two words carried a lot more meaning than that-something


    only the two old friends could understand.


    Debbie waded out in the water towards the whale. The water came up to her chest, but she didn’t mind.


    She bent over, kissed it and said sincerely, “Thank you so much, big guy! You saved us.”


    The killer whale let out a cheerful sound and rubbed against her body, just like Piggy snuggling in her


    arms.


    Finally, they piled into the raft and boated over to the cutter. They climbed the Ladder on the side of the


    patrol boat to leave the raft.


    When they were finally safely aboard, Carlos pulled off Niles’ shirt and put it on Debbie. The man’s shirt


    was toorge for her, so it covered her from neck to knees.


    Bare-chested, Niles wanted to protest, but Carlos shot him a sharp nce, silencing him.


    On their way back, the killer whale followed them the whole way, keeping a safe distance from the ship,


    but close enough to be seen


    Seeing its dorsal fin cutting through the surface of the sea, Debbie couldn’t hold back her tears.


    “I’m gonna miss him. Think we’ll ever see him again?”


    Carlos touched her head andforted her, “You cane whenever you want.”


    “But… I’m afraid…” she stammered. She would miss the killer whale, but she didn’t want to be


    shipwrecked again. Understandable, since they had battled not only the natural elements, but


    supernatural ones as well.


    Carlos smiled. Looking at the swimming killer whale, he said, “Tell it you’lle to visit around the bay


    surrounding the ind.


    “Why there? Are you afraid people might hurt it?”


    He nodded, “Yeah, kind of. We need to protect it.”

    “Right .”


    While Debbie was watching the killer whale swimming happily, Carlos radioednd. They were still out


    of cell range, so it took a little doing to get his assistant Frankie on the line.


    “Yep, purchase the beach. Launch a public welfare program to protect the marine life around there.


    Prepare all the needed application forms, materials and submit them to the State Oceanic


    Administration. And attract some investment. Hilton Group will fund 80% of the total investment…”


    Finally, they reached the beach. Their other friends were there, waiting anxiously.


    When Kasie spotted Debbie, she ran over to her and hugged her tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.


    “Deb, oh, thank God! You’re back. I was so worried about you!”


    Debbie hugged her back whileforting her, “Don’t cry. I’m fine now.


    After confirming Wesley was safe, ir also ran up to Debbie.


    “So where did you guys end up?”


    “On a desert ind,” Debbie said.


    “In some ways, it was bad. In other ways, paradise.”
