The Stuck Convoy: A forced stay at Curacao

[Arioch]

Having finally caught up to the convoy in Cortez, the Radar Rider's electronics were all but functional after the Ion Storm that hit the convoy. Nowhere near as bad as Julia and the Falling Teardrop, but enough to warrant an emergency docking on Curacao for repairs. Luckily it would only take a day.

As Lou looked out at the sight before him, he couldn't help but grin. *Sunglasses indeed* he thought as Julia spoke out.

When the shuttle landed, everyone was in awe at the beautiful site that would be their accommodations for the evening. The vibrant blue sky, the crystal clear water, the lush jungle, albeit grown for the guests that frequent the island. It was a paradise.

"Oh my... you have got to be kidding me. I'll be right back!" Lou said in a hurry, and disappeared for near an hour.

As everyone was getting situated, a loud voice called from near the dock. "Oye! Everyone! Look what I was able to rent for the evening for us! Drinks are half off for all IMG, ALG, and CR members!"

As everyone looked, some in awe, others shaking their head, Lou climbed a ladder, and hung out a makeshift sign on the side of the boat.

"That'll do..." he said to himself quietly, and hit play on the boat's sound system.
