At the same time, on the boat heading to Pierson Island, Finn rose from his spot to approach the captain.
"Can we get there a little faster?" Finn asked the person in charge. "We really need to get there quickly."
The captain sighed. "But, sir, we're already at the fastest speed we can go."
"Then how long will it take to get there?"
"About ten to fifteen minutes."
"Fifteen minutes…" Finn shook his head, forcing a smile. "Alright, but if we can get there faster, I'd really appreciate it."
"I'll do my best, sir."
With that, the captain refocused on his duties as Finn walked back a little. Finn's eyes remained on the man, sighing heavily.
Fifteen minutes wasn't that long, but considering the situation, he was growing increasingly worried.
'Of all the times for them to get in trouble...' He clenched his teeth, bitterly swallowing a reality that only a few knew about. While the group tried to enjoy the boat ride, Finn's anxiety continued to grow.
