"I found the source of the island's gravity, a very special, large, and strong gravity stone capable of great things. I decided that instead of getting a few thousand high-ranked gravity stones for lifting the island I would just take control of the source and use that to lift the island up," Lachlan explained with a bright smile, as though he was asking to be admired.
"Is it safe? How far can you be before you can't control it and what's the radius?" Phoebe asked.
"Obvious it's safe, I can be 40000km before I get outside the range and its radius is 20km, just the sheer size of it is insane so of course it's safe. That is unless I decide to take a trip to space," Lachlan explained to reassure Phoebe of its safety.
"Did you tell the others before you decided to take the island into the skies?" Phoebe questioned.
"Nope, I was in the moment, too focused to think about anything else other than getting the island into the air," Lachlan said.
"Sigh," Phoebe let out a deep sigh as she shook her head. "Let's go tell them then, they were probably given a bit of a shock."
The two flew over to the rest of the group that was currently looking over the edge of the island in shock. They were still rising into the air, bringing a bit of ocean water along with them. Lachlan and Phoebe suddenly landed behind them and the group's body slightly jumped.
"Is this your doing Lachlan?" Simon immediately questioned.
"Yup; found the source of the island's unique gravity," Lachlan said as he nodded with a large smile.
Lachlan quickly went onto explain why it's incredibly safe before Simon had the chance to ask any more questions. Lachlan then walked a bit forward to look over the edge, seeing the ocean get further and further away brightened Lachlan's smile even more.
"Anyway, we were discussing where we are supposed to position the island. What's your opinion?" Chloe asked.
"Well since we have a portable island I say we travel the world on it. You remember what the Vice-Leader said, I need to increase my willpower and I've spent a bit of time thinking about it; If we travel the world on the island I would possibly be able to find more unique materials that increase my willpower, similar to the berries," Lachlan explained.
"Alright then, fair enough. So where are we going to go now?" Chloe asked without questioning further. She knew the importance of Lachlan increasing his willpower.
"Obviously Patagoing, we got to give the group there a wonderful surprise don't we?" Lachlan asked.
The group nodded. Anne stood up, the laptop still in hand as the drone just managed to reach the shore of the island. "I'm going to go back, I still have a few things I want to try out creating; you are all going to love it."
'Alrighty then. Onward my stead! To Patagonia!' Lachlan shouted internal commanded directly to the stone. The island began to rumble again, but this time it was much calmer, only a very small shake.
"So then, while we're on our way to Patagonia I suggest we place those air stones around important places on the island and possibly bring those gravity stones back. We're going to need them for our defence," Lachlan said.
"So the island's gravity has changed then?" Simon asked.
"Obviously, that's how I got the island into the air, by changing the source's previous commands. So now, how about we place some high-ranked gravity stones around the island and set them up as a defensive barrier," Lachlan suggested. "Oh yeah, if you don't have enough, there's a gap between the roots a little bit behind the world tree from our huts. It is filled with high-ranked gravity stones and also where I found the source."
They nodded before shooting off. Lachlan then nodded to Phoebe. "I'm going to quickly go and get my sister." He shot off towards the group still floating in the sky, Maddie wasn't entirely certain whether or not the island was safe yet.
She noticed Lachlan flying towards her. "Is it safe to land back on the island now? Also, I thought you guys weren't going to do it for a little while longer."
"Things changed and yes, now it is safe to land back down," Lachlan explained. He navigated the floating group and reached his sister who was just behind Maddie. Sarah quickly reached out and grabbed Lachlan's shirt.
"Told you I wouldn't be long," Lachlan brought her close and held her with one arm. He then shot off back to where Phoebe was, landed on the wooden wall, creating a loudish thump.
"You enjoying the view?" Lachlan asked with a sarcastic tone. He stared off into the distance, the vast ocean that seemed to go on forever as they get further and further away from there original spot.
"It is actually a pretty nice view, the wind also feels pretty good; not to fast, although it does have a slight chill to it," Phoebe said as she stared across the horizon, the sun was just above their gazes.
"Well, get comfortable, it's going to take a while before we actually reach Patagonia," Lachlan suggested.
They both nodded to each other before shooting off, Phoebe decided to go back towards the huts while Lachlan went ahead and reached the other side of the island. He stood on the wall, staring at the shadow cast onto the ocean.
Looking down Lachlan saw that the island left a wake in the ocean, it hadn't fully emerged yet. The island was fairly deep, so it was obviously going to take a bit of time before it comes out. Lachlan decided to wait here until it did.
He placed Sarah on his laps. "So, are you afraid of heights?" Lachlan asked. He didn't know whether or not Sarah was afraid and didn't want to put her in such a scary position on the island.
"Of course not, I'm brave," Sarah said as she pounded her fist against her chest.
Lachlan lightly chuckled. "Yes, indeed you are."
...
It took a while but they finally managed to see Patagonia in the distance. It had been roughly 2 - 3 days since they left yet it took this long going at a fast speed. It was more than obvious that the Earth truly enlarged.
"Well Sarah, there are a few places there that I want to show you, some of which are quite wonderful," Lachlan said as he held Sarah in his arm.
...
In the city of Patagonia, the people in the streets were panicking furiously as they hid in their houses. They were scared that it was the workings of an intelligent beast that made the island floating in the sky, which would mean it would have the strength to annihilate them should it see them.
"Quickly Honey, bring the kids inside!"
"Get everyone inside! Even if they're not apart of your family just bring them in!"
"Don't let anyone get in the sight of that thing!"
Joseph himself was quickly packing up the food truck to hide while Joe and Zoe were just sitting down relaxing. They were in the middle of their meal.
Seeing that Joseph panicked more and ran up to them. "What are you doing? We need to hide in the truck before whatever is on that island sees us!"
"What are you on about? That is our island, our home base," Joe explained in a nonchalant voice.
"Huh," Joseph's mouth opened wide from shock. He stared at both Joe and Zoe in bewilderment as they didn't seem to even notice the large island in the sky. "Wait, what do you mean that's your base? You have a floating island for a base!"
"Well we haven't always had a floating island for a base, but that's the reason we came here to get those stones. So that when we do reach high altitudes we wouldn't have any trouble breathing," Joe explained.
"What do those stones have anything to do with breathing?" Joseph asked in confusion.
Joe and Zoe just stared at Joseph in shock. "Don't tell me you didn't know those stones had special powers attached to them."
"What! Special powers; of course I didn't know I just thought they were gorgeous crystals which is why my wife wanted them so bad, I didn't think they had anything unique about them," Joseph explained.
Both Joe and Zoe suddenly remembered who the real boss behind Joseph was. It was extremely likely that Catalina's family knew about the stones and wanted to capitalise on it, make a fortune before any in Patagonia realises how important they actually are.
"Well yeah, they have the ability to control the air. We have a few similar stones on the island, as you can pretty easily tell, one which controls gravity," Joe didn't see any issue in telling anyone anymore. It was obvious people were going to find out sooner or later, it wasn't like they were trying to hide it anymore; after all, they have an island floating in the sky.
"Damn," Joseph finally realised exactly how powerful Bloodied Wings really was. Although he had heard from his subordinates that it has the strength to contend against the Guardians, that was slightly difficult to believe. But when they have things that control gravity or the air, it's a bit difficult to believe they aren't strong.
