"This is it…" Lucas looked at the slurpy ss on the surface of the bucket with astonishnt.
John ca to him after hearing Lucas talk to himself yet again.
Seeing him, even Barney and Sean ca to the bucket.
Lucas ignored them all and moved his hand inside the ss. His eyes widened as he felt the texture, it was like paint yet even more thick than it.
Like cent yet too crude-looking to be it.
"Stencil!"
"S-Shit!"
Lucas looked at Sean with a confused gaze but ignored it again and went to his workshop.
"Is this guy for real?" Sean asked while shaking his head.
"For real," Barney said with the sa expression.
John was the only one who was smiling.
"You won't know the addiction of diving fully into so work so much that you stop considering anything else for the ti being, boys. It is truly fascinating." John said with nostalgic eyes while looking at the bucket.
Both brothers looked at their old man and shrugged not understanding what he had entailed by what he said.
Lucas took many wooden planks that were shifted in the storage room after roaming around for quite so ti.
He kept those planks in such a way that made a horizontally long mold.
It looked to be 2 hand-long asurents in length while the breadth was 4 hand-long asurent.
Lucas used the rope to quickly join the joints of the makeshift stencil, his eyes fell on the trio for the first ti.
"What are you doing standing out there? Help out!"
"Yeah yeah, what do we do?" Sean asked.
"Shouldn't you have made it before you started all this?" Barney asked.
"Alright boys, no ti to waste on ifs and buts, get on with it."
"Yeah, what he said," Lucas said without even looking trying his all to join the two corners together with the rope.
He had to use many ways to do it properly as the normal wrapping didn't work.
Until he looked at John who was skillfully wrapping the rope around the corner opposite to him and finally making a knot on the outer side of the stencil.
Lucas saw Barney and Sean do the sa and then looked at his wrapping which was too bad to be true.
John ca to him and unwrapped everything, he told him to look at the process of how he wrapped it and this was how Lucas got to know another rope-tying way that was going to help him a lot in the future.
"Thanks, Uncle John."
"No problem, there to help anyti. So, what are we doing now?"
"Now, we take this stencil on one of the tallic surfaces to have a better-leveled surface."
"Ok"
After keeping the stencil which was not very durable carefully to one of the empty tallic surfaces with space.
Lucas brought the bucket and started pouring the mixture into it.
After all the mixture was in the stencil, they all looked at it weirdly.
"It's not enough I guess," Lucas said with a sigh after looking at the stencil.
While it may have covered every single corner of the stencil, its height was not that great, It did not even co halfway to the stencil's opening.
"It is good enough for the first ti, Lucas. We should level it and leave it as it is for now."
"True…" Lucas went and brought a piece of wood that was broad naturally.
He started leveling the concrete mixture which was not that good looking but it did the work fine.
After a few minutes, they left the stencil alone on the free tallic surface while Lucas read the blueprint completely.
"It says to leave it alone till it gets sturdy for as long as it takes according to the material. It can take hours to days without a problem." Lucas said while reading what was written in the blueprint aloud one ti.
"Will it be faster in sunlight?"
"Hmm… that can be true, but we can't shift it now. It has no surface."
In the end, everyone went to their own works again while Lucas went sightseeing his canal.
It had beco a beautiful place to sit and gaze at, while the river had the sa sentint, the travel was a bitch.
Lucas looked at the many fishes in the river swimming around normally. Now that there was no flow, they didn't have to just go ahead where the river took them but move around according to their own accord.
Lucas saw many fish joining the ones at the canal's end where he was sitting.
There was not only one kind of fish but many different types. Each was the sa size, the size not more than a hand, only so were the size of his arm and Lucas was trying to keep them inside the canal.
He had given them the waste that they mostly buried in the shelter's territory. Finally, a ti had co when things that could not be eaten or used with the knowledge of the present shelter were being used.
Lucas sat there for so while not knowing the fact that there were still eyes on him. There was a small fish the size of his hand right under the small aquatic grass that had grown on its own.

Its eyes were glowing golden while it stared daggers at Lucas. The fish itself looked like an unusual being. Not moving at all and staying stationed in the water like it was sleeping.
Lucas after having peace again went back to the shelter leaving a lot of food in the canal for the fish to eat.
While he went away, the fishes ate the small chunks ferociously and without anyone's observation, many fishes grew by a few centiters as if the food itself was the catalyst to make them grow.
Lucas went back to the shelter where everyone was performing their responsibilities while he went back to the workshop to brew so more potions.
It was the last day where they would be sitting peacefully in the shelter while getting sheltered by it more than necessary.
Tomorrow was the day of the role allocation where no one would be left behind.
