This story takes place in Horse Isle 2. It features GalaxyLad's Diorama quest. Hope you guys like it Pleas no copying : ).

Well, here it goes...

"Bye Mother!" I yelled as I mounted my horse and began my journey.

I rode along the rocky road until I came to the dock house, where I unmounted my horse, TailFire, and proceeded to walk into the dock house. I greeted the ship mistress, MadamPortsMouth, and payed her $500.

We walked outside, and she took me and TailFire onto her boat, and finally, we made our way to Tiger Isle.

When we got to the shore I was greeted by many smiling faces. But the one that stood out to me the most was GalaxyLad. He greeted me with a warm smile, but then his mother, MissHowNow, called him back into the town library.

I went into the nearest building, which happened to be the bank, and was warmly greeted by MrDarkWaters.

"What brings you here to Tiger Isle." He asked me.

"I'm just here for a little adventure, and a place to stay." I answered back truthfully.

"Oh. Of course. If you continue farther up the road you'll find an Inn. I'm sure LadyRainForest will be glad to provide you with a room."

"Thank you. I must be going now."

I exited the store and walked with TailFire to the Inn. LadyRainForest greeted me, and we arranged for me to have a room.

I spent the night there, and then I went to visit the library, since I was an avid reader.

I was sitting at a table reading when GalaxyLad approached me. "Hi!" He said.

"Hello." I answered back.

"Um..." He hesitated, "Could you... um. Help me out with something? My mom grounded me and.." He stared at the floor. "I'm not allowed to go anywhere. But I have a diorama I need to make for school. It's due this week, but I have to go to a bunch of different isles to get the stuff. If it's not too much to ask.."

"Sure! I'd love to help!" I was. After all, I had come here seeking adventure. Now was my chance.

"Here's a list of everything I need. I don't need all of it. Just 6 things."

"Okay." He handed me the list and I skimmed through it.

Miniature cacti...fossil...slide-rule...olive oil...blue dahlia...bonsai tree...mineral... [This was going to be tricky]I thought.

But then I skimmed through it again. I could easily find a few of theses things. I knew I could find the mini cacti.

"I'll try to be back soon."

I left the library and then made my way to the dock house.

I bought a boat ticket to DryTon. When the boat finally came I happily boarded the boat.

When I finally got to Dry Isle, I went to the city hall and talked to the mayor. He told me to look for mini cacti on Golden Isle.

I took a boat to Golden Isle and then approached MrBones. He grudgingly handed me the key to his cabin. I entered the cabin and searched for the cacti in his top drawer. Luckily, it was the only thing in there. I didn't want to be intruding on his personal life. I carefully placed the cacti into my backpack, then returned the key to MrBones.

I thanked him and continued on my way.

Next I had to get a fossil. As I thought about it, I remembered something I had read in a book once, about IceCube Isle.

I got on a boat that would take me to Glacier Isle, then a boat to IceCube Isle.

The picture in the book had shown a snow bank on the easternmost side of IceCube Isle. When I got there I dug, and finally used my pickaxe to break a fossil from the ice.

By the time I'd finished this laborious work night was falling. I had promised my mother that I would visit her before I spent the night at TigerTon.

I took a boat to AngledForestIsle and went back to my house. I talked to my mother and explained the quest GalaxyLad had given me. I handed her the list and she began telling me where I could find the items I hadn't already found.

"Go to the General store here for the slide-rule. For the olive oil, talk to MrsWithies on Dumbell Isle, she'll charge you $200. For the blue dahlia, talk to someone in LeafTon. I expect all of this can be done in a day. Yes?"

"Yes mother, thank you."

I bid her farewell and traveled back to TigerTon. I went back to the Inn and collapsed into bed.

I had a long day ahead of me.
