The Boiling Pot

"What'cha doin'?" Napa asks, Like the a curios child. It's my second day on Isola and I love it." I'm researching, Napa." Suddenly, I hear a low growling noise that makes me jump." What was that?" I ask, With a worried look on my face. Napa clutches her stomach and says "My stomach is saying it's hungry!"

I smile after she says that. I'm a bit relieved too. She starts to walk over to the food hut, but stops by the empty pot. "You can boil water in that pot. Get water and a heated rock." Her stomach growls again. "I better go. And I know, Only a light snack." I was just about to tell her that.

Dinner would be ready soon. Annaleigh walks over to me after Napa runs back to the food hut. " 'Seph, We need to do something with that pot." I turn to Annaleigh. "Anna, we need to get Freshwater in it and a hot rock under it." Annaleigh nods and heads of to the stream, which had just been cleared today.

I head off to the rock pile near the end of the bridge. I pick up a rock and head over to the fire to heat it. When it turns red, I try to pick it up. My hands feel the heat and I drop the hot rock. I just can't pick it up! Rasche happens to be nearby. I call out to him. "Rasche, Please help me." He runs over, with a smile on his face.

"What's wrong?" He asks me. "I can't pick up this rock. Could you please pick it up and take it to the lab for me?" Rasche agrees to help me and while he picks it up He says "Persephone, You need to start building if your hands are that soft." I giggle a bit and roll my eyes. "Whatever, Let's just get the rock under this pot."

As soon as he puts the rock under the pot, The water Annaleigh put in starts to boil. I yell "Hey everybody, Rasche and Annaleigh made water boil!" While, everyone runs over to celebrate Rasche says that I helped too. Napa was first to run over. She giggles a bit and then starts to celebrate like everyone else.

Soon, I cook dinner in the pot. The dinner was better then last night's because now it was a hot stew. After that, Rasche and Alohi had finished the hut and had started on another that looked a bit different then the other one, but won't tell anyone what kind it is. We all go to sleep after dinner, happy and exhausted. We all sleep better in the hut then last night, when we slept outside.

It may have not been as long as the other chapter, But I promise the next will be out soon. The link to the comment thread is at the end of the 2nd chapter. Please comment. I would like to hear your opinions on my story.
