An Emergency!

Robert panicked. "I'll drown!" he said. (He wasn't too bothered about anybody else.) He turned to Fred. "You've got the bottle. Make a wish, quick!"

If Fred had been under less pressure, he might have hit upon a better wish than the one he chose. "I wish that the palace should be weightless," he told the genie.

Everybody sighed in relief as the island stabilised. Luckily the palace's foundations were secure enough that it did not actually float away. However it now quivered in a rather unsettling fashion with every puff of wind.

Astra had too much pride to burst into tears in front of Robert, but that was what she felt like doing. Fred had used his third and final wish and, in the absence of any more males on the island, there would not be any more wishes for anyone. It seemed that she was fated to spend the rest of her life trapped on this tiny island with Robert. Compared to that, even her over-large breasts were only a minor concern.

She reminded herself that, though she might not be able to do anything about being stuck on the island, there was a good chance that she could ensure that Robert would not live for too much longer. She recalled that, when she had said that she was going to have a nap, Robert had asked if he could join her. Perhaps it would be best to say "yes". Repulsive though the prospect of his sharing her bedchamber was, it ought to make killing him much easier. Even if she couldn't find a weapon, she should be able to use a pillow to asphyxiate him. She was sure she would be strong enough to hold it over his mouth until he ceased struggling.

"Before the excitement, I said that I needed a nap, and you asked if you could join me," she reminded Robert. "The answer is yes. I would be happy for you to share my bed."

Robert's self-confidence was such that he showed not the slightest surprise. He smiled. "I knew that, once you saw the palace that I've provided for you, you'd come round," he said.

1. They enter the palace.
2. Just then, one of the hotties spots another vessel approaching the island. It looks like a Hespan slaving ship! If only our heroes had some wishes left!
