Just to let you know, in my stories, the Harem HQ is located in Durem.
Gino's Egg
One week and two days after Gino's tramatic encounter with the common cold, the Super Make-You-Better Harem Nurses were still checking up on him. Rychi would always be checking his temperature and the rest of the nurses followed him around with pillows, glasses of water, and chicken noodle soup. Gino, of course, could never look at chicken soup the same way again. The other "Haremites" wouldn't leave him alone either. They would say things like "Are you alright??" or "Maybe you should sit down before you get dizzy." Needless to say Gino got irritated. One afternoon, Gino miraculously escaped the Harem's fussing. It was quite interesting how he did it. It involved floss, a spork, a paper clip and a half eaten bake potato. But Im sure you don't want to hear about that. When he finally got out, he walked to Port of Gambino.
When he got there he sat on a bench at the north-east part of the port. Gino sighed happily and tilted his head back. He looked up at the bright blue sky and smiled. He could imagine the chaos he had caused. The Harem Nurses searching the Harem HQ atleast five times, Rychi keeping on a brave face assuring the Haremites they would find him, the youngest Harem members sitting in corners thinking he was hurt, their eyes dripping with tears...
"Come on can't I get a break?!?" Gino yelled at the sky. He slumped over and sighed. Then he caught a wiff of something. It smelt horrible. "Augh!" Gino squeaked and then covered his nose. It was the smell of rotting flesh. Gino grimaced and suddenly his eyes got very, very wide.
"D..dad?" He managed to whisper. He took off running to the source of the smell. Please, oh please, for the love of God, don't let that be his... He couldn't even think it.The smell was at its strongest at the north-west corner of the port. He paused and covered his nose with his sleeve. He walked over to the bush that sat beside the twin trees. He pulled back the bush to reveal....a dead dog with an egg in its mouth.
"Oh, thank God!" He said. Then he looked at the dog again in a cross of pity and disgust. "Poor thing." I bet it was just tryin to eat that egg as a last meal or something. He thought. He looked at the egg clutched in the dogs mouth. It was bigger than a chicken egg and was brown-ish with little red dots. He was curious about what kind of bird it was from. Covering his nose once more, leaned over the bush and pulled the egg out of the dogs mouth. It wasn't cracked and was actually warm.
"Strange." He walked away from the dogs body and made a mental note to tell someone about it. He lightly washed the egg in the ports warm water and held it to his chest as he walked to his Harem.

"Where is he!?!?" Rychi shrieked for the billionth time and I'm not exaggerating. The Super Make-You-Better Harem Nurses had looked all over the HQ for Gino and had even sent search parties to Isle De Gambino, Barton, and Aekea. BlossomtheRabbit was sobbing in worry and Miss. Peanut-Butter was pacing around muttering things about assassins and such which wasn't helping anything. Little Miss Momo was running from window to window hopeing to spot Gino. Whenever Rychi shrieked 'Where is he!?!?' everyone would freeze and stare at her for a second and then go back to their crying, pacing, or rocking back and forth in a tight ball.
Rychi was about to scream again when the door slowly creaked open. Everybody stoped and stared at the door. It opened to reveal one Captain Druken, intoxicated hero of Gaia, dragging a chained up Gino, whom was clutching something to his chest, behind him.
"Is this really neccissary?!" Gino yelled.
"Rychi's orders" Captain Drunken replied. "Heres Gino!" Captain yelled loud enough for the entire Harem to hear and then he quickly ran out of the building, slamming the door behind him. Gino squeezed his eyes shut, expecting to be pounced upon and glomped by the Haremites. It didn't come. He opened his eyes and looked at the girls and guys of his Harem. Most were crying and smiling with a few clutching on to others in happiness. And a few were staring angrily at him. He gulped and felt the weight of his chains fall off his shoulders. He turned his head to see Rychi holding the chains loosly in her hands with a small smile on her face.
He stood up and looked down at the egg in his hands to make sure it was ok, and it was. He smiled a little and looked up and came face to face with Miss. Peanut-Butter. What little smile he had fell of of his face. Her face was red and there was tears building up in her eyes. Did I worry them that much? And then...
*SMACK!*
Gino fell back with a large red mark on his face. Several gasps were heard, including one from Rychi.
"D-don't e-e-ever worry us like that a-again!" Miss. Peanut-Butter managed to scream at him. She covered her eyes with her arm and ran out of the HQ. Everyone was either staring at the door or at Gino, who was staring at the door. He got up, tears threatening to spill, and sighed. He stared at the egg in his hands and walked to his room.
