The Coalition set sails across the water with Dylflon cuddled closely to Typhoid. Dyne began preparation for his journey. He readied himself both mentally and physically. While the idea sounded good on paper, he never attempted anything like this before.

Dyne eased his way into the water. He wanted to get a feel for it before he began. The water was calm, a bit chilly but it seemed to be on his side. He turned his back to the water, "Remember, you guys are my guide." Typhoid and Dylflon nodded their heads.

Dyne walked on the surface of the water backwards, he aimed his hands downwards and began to pour water. His idea was simple, he would use water pressure to keep him afloat on the surface of the water. He hoped that it would work like a water based jet fuel.

He was surprised when it worked. He edged out further into the water and remained buoyet. He did a few doughnuts in the water to see if he could handle tight turns and high speeds. When everything checked out, he gave the thumbs up and the 3 men moved forward. They would finally rid the world of two shameful Canadians.
-----------------------------------
Geo had reached the bay a little after departing from his group. Since he spotted nothing when he landed, he hoped that no one had spotted him. He took point amongst the trees to quickly survey the environment he had landed in. In his immediate vacanty, he could see a handful of agents, whose attention was all focused at the bank. From this he concluded, that their main targets were down beneath.

He slowly climbed down the tree and crept up behind the stationed GAMES agents. One by one, he walked behind them and took his scythe to their neck. He wanted to do it personally because he had missed the sensation, but he also wanted to minimize the blood splatter. When he was finished killing all the agents he could see, he got a deliciously evil plan to throw everyone off their plan.

He gathered all the heads and kept them floating behind him. With a shadow of severed heads, Geo edged over the cliff to look down at the bay. He could make out Bond and the man... was it Jeepnut? who had rescued him from their clutches. He could not identify the other men with them, but was certain it was the people they were informed to kill as well.

Now he waited for his backup.
------------------------------------
As they raced across the water, Dyne could not help himself from stealing peaks at his friends. He knew he shouldn't but each time he laughed softily to himself.

"Okay, get over it!" Typhoid finally snapped.

"Ha... I am.. ha ha.... trying too." As Dyne was speaking, the sun began to set behind them.

"Has it really taken us this long?" Dylflon asked. "When we left, it was only mid-day."

"I think it's the cosmos embracing your love. Hahahahah" Dyne thought the shot was too easy not to take.

"I will drop him right now if you do not shut up!"

"HEY!" Dylflon did not like this either, but he did not want to be dropped in the middle of no water.

"Maybe, you two just don't see it the way I do." Dyne paused in the water, and Typhoid followed suit.

Dyne attempted to balance himself on one hand, it proved to be difficult but he only had to maintain it for a few seconds. He used the other hand to create a reflective surface on the water in front of Typhoid and Dylflon. As they went to look at themselves, fireworks began to go off in the distance. This sent Dyne into a laughing fit in which he shot water all over the place.

Typhoid dumped Dylflon into the water and ran in place until Dyne promised to never mention it again. Seeing his friend struggling to remain afloat, Dyne agreed. Typhoid picked Dylflon up and they continued their journey in silence.

Finally, the land they sought came into view.

Typhoid reminded Dyne once more, "Remember once we touch down on land, this NEVER happened." Dyne nodded. Dylflon had already blacked out all of the ugly details.

They reached the shore.

The end.
