.. what, on that morning, had seemed to my eyes to be an unimaginably large crowd ... and that was for a 5K with only 43 entrants. Today’s race prom...sed to be considerably larger.I remembered well the disorientation and nervousness and even fear I felt that morning. I saw it on Lisa’s face in those moments.We both checked in, picking up our race bibs and timing chips. We walked around the staging area, looking at the display tables that had been set up by the various local small businesses. “Sure it can,” Siza commented while reading their minds. “Your anus can stretch too. Come on, drop your pants and you’ll love it. You guys can get naked just like us. Clothes are such a bother!”But there it was plain as day and Branch grabbed one con by the front of his pants, started to unbutton him. He almost fainted from fright so she let go, laughing and he collapsed on the ground. Siza pulled out and showed them four fingers as she stuck them in her mouth to suck and then made her whole. Hearns looked guilty and cast a look at Treleven who pretended to study the chalk board. Pons just gave a smirk, like a spoilt schoolboy.“All hands! All hands on deck!” the boatswain intoned whilst his mates were sounding their pipes.Within seconds, Unicorn‘s deck filled with men. The nailed soles of the soldiers’ boots thumbed foreward where they manned the capstan. The topmen streamed up along the shrouds and spread over the topsail yards where they waited for orders.A look to port told. [Father?] Jake heard the voice of his newest daughter Tanaya. [Something appears to be wrong.][Wrong?] Came Jake's reply a new worry and fear about his children spreading through him. [The doctor is here with me, are you ill?][My brother and sister are well father. We are afraid that something is wrong with our sister. She has not responded of late, has her mother the princess not mentioned anything?] Tanaya urgent and worried thoughts told Jake.[No, though I will check immediately!] Jake.
