12 The Skull Ship

Chapter 12 The Skull Ship SPLASH! Malia hit the water. SPLISH! SPLOSH! SPLUSH! Peki. Dante. Ivan. Three of the older pikos were waiting nearby. They lifted the cousins out of the water and swam to the holt. There Peki stood up on Malia's shoulder and addressed the pikos.

第十二章 骷髅船 哗啦！ 玛利亚掉进了水里。 啪嗒！ 扑通！ 哗啦！ 佩奇。 丹特。 伊万。 三只年纪稍大的皮克兽正在附近等着。 他们把几个表亲从水里拉起来，朝着聚居地游去。 佩奇站在玛利亚的肩膀上，对皮克兽们讲话。

"Okay, friends; our journey begins! We head for the Lake despite the high stakes." Dozens of pikos dove into the water and headed

“好啦，朋友们，我们的旅程开始啦！ 哪怕风险重重，我们也要往大湖进发。” 几十只皮克兽扎进水里，朝着

"Mickey!" Malia shouted, slipping off her piko's back and swimming closer. The Quiet Prince turned. His eyes went wide when he saw the cousins. "Stop the ship!" he called. "We have company."

“米奇！” 玛利亚大喊着，从皮克兽的背上滑下来，游得更近了。 这位沉默的王子转过身。 看见几个表亲的时候，他眼睛一下子瞪得圆圆的。 “停下船！” 他喊道。 “我们有客人来了。”
