"We should be approaching any minute now." Camden said, as he sat in the cabin. He had rented a small yacht-type boat and hired as small a crew as he could to keep the thing moving, swearing them to silence about anything they saw. They were sailing in thick fog, navigating purely by radar, when suddenly, the ship hit a bump of some kind but kept going. The radar cut out immediately.
"Sir, we lost radar. We're blind." The captain said.
"Keep going. Just keep her straight." Camden said, walking out to the bow as the fog began to thin slightly.

Jack stood nearby, waiting. His thoughts were still on Lisabetta and what she was doing. Why now?
Ian was towards the back of the boat, shirtless again, working out in his boredom, doing pushups.

Sebastian was standing on the bow near the other two, letting the ocean breeze blow throw his hair.
He was dressed in head to toe camouflage and carrying a bag full of various medical equipment, just in case anything went screwy on their trip.

"So, why slow yourself down with the equivalent of an entire hospital worth of medical equipment?" Camden said. He had little beyond some basic supplies, his gun, his knife, a machete if necessary, some water and a blank map.

"Don't come crying to me if you lose an arm or contract malaria," Sebastian replied, "It's best to be as prepared as possible. You never know what kind of dangers you'll find on an expedition such as this."

"I had my malaria booster shot a week ago, and I have a gun, a knife and a bigger knife. If I'm going to lose an arm, they will have to take it off of my cold, dead body."

Camden chuckled. "I tempt Death for a living, my pink friend."

Sebastian pouted, "Is this going to be a thing with you? You know i didn't choose my own color, right?"

"Pink is pink, whether it is willful or not." Camden said, clapping a hand on Sebastian's shoulder.
"Mistress, we have a ship approaching." A voice stated, in the bushes by the island beach.
"Prepare for ambush. If necessary, shoot to kill." Another voice stated. There was a collective click as several rifles cocked. However, the boat was still quite a ways away.

"Urgh...remind me why we're here again?" Tanya asked as she bumped her head against the wall for the millionth time, "I'm gonna be a vegetable by the time we land."

"First of all, why are you bumping your head against the wall? It's bad for you. Secondly, we're here because I have very good reason to believe that there is a very powerful Precious on this island. We should be landing in a few minutes." Camden said to Tanya.

"Finally. A pay day!" Sebastian rubbed his hands together in anticipation, "You know, I was pretty upset when you didn't invite me to your last little expedition. You always need a medic!"

"Because I'm a little clumsy on a boat," Tanya said as she shook her head and just sat down, "any idea what this precious might be?" she asked.

"Nothing definite, but it is part of a whole. One of seven to form a 'power untold'." Camden said, doing air quotes around "power untold". "Well, we should be landing in about... now."
The boat ground to a halt on the beach.
"You guys get below deck. I'll signal you when we need you to get prepared. When that signal comes, move fast, because we most likely will be as well." Camden said to the crew. They nodded and vanished below deck. He hiked up his pack and vaulted over the bow, landing on the sand.
A figure watched from the trees, utterly undetectable.
