It was the morning I had been waiting for, and dreading. I had been chosen to go on a special journey that many had failed. You see, not long ago, the vampire race had turned against us Gaians. They struck terror through our cities and just a few weeks ago had severily hurt our sacred Jellyfish god. He doesn't control jellyfish or anything he actually controls the sun but we call him the jellyfish god cause he looks like one. Anyways, so I had been chosen to travel to the Jellyfish god to repare the damages. It was a great honor. I packed my things up and put on my lucky hat. It looked like a gray witch hat but it was special to me. I walked out the door after saying a meaningful farewell to by best friend Gwen. I hurridly walked to the place they had instructed me to go when I was ready. A pale man with long dark hair came up to greet me. "Hello! You must be Lillian. I'm Louie I'll be your guide on this trip! I'm simply outraged that my vampire kin would do something like this!" He said to me. I was hesitant. Did he say vampire kin? Did this mean he was a vampire? I tried not to let it bother me. "Yes. I'm Lillian, Pleasure to meet you." I said with a small smile. I brushed a strand on my bright pink hair out of my face. "Well, um, I suppose I should show you the ship now." He said putting his hands together. He started walking towards it and I followed.
We came up to an airship about the size you'd expect a good pirate ship to be. "It's called the SkyBlazer! Isn't it a beauty." He said beaming. 'Um. I'm not sure how an airship could be beautiful but I guess so." I said staring up at it. Suddenly, four people came down from the ship. "Ah. This is your crew! There's Timothy, Palmer, Jason, and Issy." He said pointing to each of them. Timothy looked about my age and had slightly long light brown hair and bangs that nearly covered his eyes making them hard to see, Palmer was a little scrawny and had shirt wavy blonde hair, Jason was very Muscular and had very dark hair and gorgeus gray eyes, and Issy was an attractive looking girl with super long blonde hair that went past her waist and looked like she used a curling iron on it everyday. I was proud of my natural loose curls. Louie turned back to me. "I believe all of the coins, food and ammo is on board." He shot a glance at the crew and they nodded. "Alright then. All hands on deck!" He shouted. No one moved. "Um, everyone onto the ship." He said. The crew, Louie and I rushed up onto the ship and after a few minutes of getting ready. We set sail into the sky!
The Journey Begins
I walked up to the front of the ship and looked out into the forest we were flying through. "So, ever been captain of an airship before?" I heard a voice behind me say. I jump up and turned around. It was Tim. "Um, no actually. I'm a first timer!" I say trying to sound upbeat. "Cool. Everyone on this ship is. So don't feel out of place." He said. "Oh, I won't." I said sounding determind. Tim smiled a slightly crooked smile and went back to his job. It was hard to believe that out of more than 80,000 Gaians I had been picked to captain this ship and mission. I found myself beaming. I snap out of my moment of pride and see Louie carrying a giant bag of hot dogs. I walk over. "Louie, uh, where did you get those?" I ask pointing to the hot dogs. "My super human sense of smell detected this bag of hot dogs under a log below! So I flew down and got them!" He said happily, holding up the bag. "It also detected that you miiiight want to clean the toilet." He said. "Thanks for the advice now, go put those in storage." I ordered. An upside of being captain is, you get to tell people what to do! I walked around the ship looking for something to do. I saw Issy trying to flirt with Jason and sent her to go clean the toilet. She gave me a face but obeyed my orders. This is gonna be a good journey.
Day 2
I woke up the next morning to a horrible pain in my stomach. I started to moan. Louie came into my room and inspected me. When he was finished he said, "Just a little bad indigestion cause of last night. No worries." I must admit last night's dinner wasn't fun. I mean, who wants to eat Termites? Even if they're supposed to be a delicasy or something. "Captain! Louie! come quick! you gotta see this!" Palmer shouted from up above. I quickly slipped on some clothes and Louie and I went up above. Standing in front of us was a massive sized tree. It's leaves and bark shimmered in the light. "What tree is this?" I asked Palmer. "It's name is Ol' Respectable! It's a Sequoia tree thats lasted through thousands of years of floods, forest fires, and assassination attempts by anti-tree militants!" He said happily. "I studied it for years!"
I looked at it more. Impressive. "Well, since it's so important, take only pictures and leave only footprints." I instructed. The crew snapped a few photo's and went back to they're duties. I felt a rushing tingle go through my body and knew the gods were watching over us. We decided to take the rest of the day as a resting day. I knew we all needed it. Tim sang a song with his guitar for us while we ate lunch. He had the voice of an angel I tell you. Jason cooked dinner for us that night, and boy, for a kid that looks like he could be a professional football player, he makes a mean pasta! "Alright everyone! To your rooms and to bed, we've all got another long day ahead of us tomorrow!" I announced after dinner. I started walking to my room when I saw Tim. He hadn't moved an inch. "Tim, come on. You have to go to bed, I don't want anyone being tired tomorrow." I said walking over to him. He didn't answer. "Tim c'mon." I say more urgently. He looks up and me even though I can't see his eyes. "I'm fed up with life." He said flatly and suprised me. "Tim don't be silly. Go to your quarters right now. And I don't want to hear you talking like that." I went to my room not knowing if he did or not. All I know is I went to bed worried. I had feelings for the guy. And what he can't mean anything good.
Day 3
The next day was super busy. The wind had picked up signifigantly and we traveling pretty fast! I hadn't spoken to basically anyone all day except Palmer to see how the ship was doing. It took me by suprise when Louie rushed over to me and said with urgency in his eyes, "I sense a great deal of death. We'd be fools not to investigate." I nodded and had Palmer land the ship. I brought Jason with us just incase. Louie led us to a huge graveyard. Some of the corpses hadn't been buried yet. It was disgusting. Yet, Louie looked over ever one of the unburied ones and came back with five usable bullets. We went back to the ship and showed the crew what we had found. After that we continued on. I watched as Jason went over to Issy who was swooning over him. "You were so brave to go down to that graveyard Jas!" She said. "Well, I am a master at defense!" He replied and flexed his muslces. I swear I thought Issy was going to faint. I rolled my eyes and went to the front of the ship where Tim was sitting looking at something. "What'cha looking at?" I ask him. He motioned to a birds nest with a few egg's in it. "Sorry about last night.' He said quietly. "I honestly don't know what came over me!" I let out a small sigh of releif that he was ok and stuff. "It's fine." Was all I could think of to say. The wind slowed down and the day got boring. Soon it was night time and all we could manage to have was eggs for dinner. "Where'd you get the eggs?" I asked Issy who was the cook of the crew. "I found them on the front of the ship!" She said happily. I nearly choked on the bite I had just taken. After this trip I decided I was gonna become a vegetarian.
(Sorry that it's so long, and there's more comin btw)
