Story Outline:
STORY 9 finds the Flitlits on a special day setting off for Hot Plot Bay.
A troop arrive at Hot Plot Station that do not look like known relations.
Could they pass for dreamy genies with no sun cream or bikinis?
Will they show their cleverness, much like champions, good at chess?
Perhaps they could be meddling Geniuses from the island Buttinbiz.
Story Opening:
The Flitlits met up one fine day to take a trip to Hot Plot Bay.
Scuba Salt sat on Shock Rocks and felt them rumble, shake, and knock.
Scuba's home stands at Hot Plot, close to dinghies, boats, and yachts.
His folk, like all Salt folk before, have always felt drawn to the shore.
