## Summary

Hunter Eickhoff announces that Sylvestre has won a surfing contest for the third year in a row. After the competition, they head home. Buizel complains about the trophy being heavy. Not only that, Blayne spots a injured surfer who they believed to be a contestant. They rush to see if he was okay. They decided to get help.

They take the injured surfer to the nearest shelter, the Tiki Tack Shack. They wait for the surfer to respond while Sylvestre has a conversation with the Tiki Tack Man. He says that the surfer was knocked out for hours, days, weeks, months, etc. He mentions that 'your brother should regain conscious soon,' having Sylvestre replying that they aren't related. He thinks that but he forgives Sylvestre. The surfer wakes up all confused after having a nightmare and told them that the area doesn't remind him of Geraptiku.

The surfer asks Sylvestre who he is and what is he doing in 'Geraptiku.' Sylvestre tells him that Geraptiku was abandoned for centuries introduces himself to the surfer. The surfer's name is Wave. He demands answers as he recovers from his hundred years of slumber. Sylvestre asks the Tiki Tack Man if they could take care of Wave while he deals with the Tombola games, after being closed for awhile. Wave agrees to the idea.

As they head home, Zappz asks what Geraptiku was like before it got abandoned. Wave says that Geraptiku was a peaceful village with no wars. He says it was living paradise. He mentioned that he met a beautiful Neopet named, Hikari. He had crush on her. As Wave explains the story, a voice takes over Wave's body for a short time and his eyes change color. Zappz asks Wave about the story. Wave continues with the story while Sylvestre says to himself that he should keep an eye on Wave after that weird conception.

After arriving, the brothers and Wave gets ready for bed. Sylvestre offers Wave the couch and he accepts sleeping something that is safe to lay on. Zappz begs Sylvestre to sleep with Wave and he answered yes to Zappz's beg. During the night, the voice takes over again as she tells Wave that they'll get a well deserve revenge. He opens his eyes and they're red and black, like before. In the morning, Sylvestre finds Wave asleep on the floor with the door opened. Wave asks that if it's morning and Sylvestre tells him that they managed to find him on the ground.

They head to the Neopian Beach #1, to catch some waves. Sylvestre sees Wave surfing but he's not too impressed to see him. Blayne tells Sylvestre that Wave's much better than Sylvestre. Sylvestre has some suspicion as he thinks that Wave is Zappz's older brother. Blayne thinks that he's jealous. Sylvestre then says that he doesn't want anyone to get hurt. Later in the afternoon, Zappz asked Sylvestre if they can go to Geraptiku. He agrees while Blayne thinks that Sylvestre wants Wave gone and abandon him.

After packing, the brothers settle the forests to Geraptiku to solve Wave's strange mystery. They stop and rest for the night but Sylvestre couldn't sleep. Wave asks him what's wrong and Sylvestre replied about the strange connection between him and Zappz. It reminds him of Kai, an orange Ogrin, whose always by his side. Wave said that he was his apprentice. Later in the story, Kai had to leave because his parents think that Wave is taking him away from them. Kai had to move away. Wave promised Sylvestre to never do the same mistake to Zappz, as he did with Kai.

The next morning, the brothers and Wave continue their journey. As they arrived, Wave introduce everyone his old hut. He wonders what happened to once a thriving civilization to a dump. Without warning, his medal glows and saying it's time for revenge. Sylvestre and the brothers take cover. The glow stops.
