The Anti-Fairy Tales The Water Demon Arc Part Two

 The Storm


Pheoshan put the book away as she felt the shooting rocking making her feel sleepy. As she read the sleepiness became more and more difficult to resist and she found her eyelids drop every now and again. She found it becoming almost impossible to keep her eyelids open. So she closed her eyes and took a nap. Then as the evening wore on the rocking became less soothing and more aggressive. She woke up as she rocked side to side faster and faster and she fell out of the hammock!

She soon scrambled to her feet and found it difficult to get to the door. She found herself running down the narrow corridor like a drunk. Yet she was able to get to the door leading to the staircase. She grabbed the doorknob. Then the ship rocked back and she momentarily hung from the knob and the door fell as it opened. She then let go and hit the floor. She scrambled onto her feet. She had to almost climb as she gripped the rope bannister. She was bashed from left to right as she climbed the stairs. Her shoulder hurt as she climbed higher and higher. There was another wooden door above. 

She kicked the door open and was slapped with water. She looked up at the black clouds that looked like smoke. She saw that the frame was lit by lightning. As she threw herself up she then saw the waves. They were getting higher and higher. The ship shook as it hit the waves. She scrambled to her feet and had to bend her knees to stop herself from falling below deck. She then matched on.

She looked for the other two and yet she could not. She looked throughout the different levels of the deck. She looked around again and again but could not find them. Suddenly she was concerned that they had already been thrown overboard. 

She then looked at the edges just in case they were there, yet she spotted a guy that was about to fall overboard. She raced over to him and grabbed by his back coat and pulled him back. They were hit by a wave and the next moment they were on their back on the deck. She quickly climbed to her feet and quickly spotted another person that was about to fall into the sea. She rushed over to him and pulled him back.

She then looked at the sea looking for anyone that had been thrown overboard. As she looked around she spotted a long and thin tail of a fish that she did not recognise. It was an emerald green that moved in a strange way. Yet she did not have time to look further into it as she was hit by another wave.

She was flung back and soon was falling back as the ship swayed the other way. She waited for until the ship swayed the other way before she rolled her legs out and then jumped to her feet. She then stood and waited for her body to synchronise with the rocking of the ship. 

She then spotted a small child in the air and she was able to catch him by his arm. She spotted the mother with a rope around her waist. She then raced to her and gave him over to her. She helped her tie the safety rope around his waist. 

She could feel the water start to weigh her clothes down greatly. The woman then looked at the girl with fear and shock. She tried to ignore this and she looked again for her friends and again she could not find them. She then raced to the lower levels of the decks and found another. She raced to her and with the water weighted clothes made this ever more difficult. She then pulled her back and it took all her willpower to get the woman to where the mother was. She then tied the safety rope. 

Then the rain became so heavy that it became almost impossible to see.

"Coalphyre! Phiredoor!" She shouted as loud as she could so that her voice would not get drowned out.

She could feel the cold get to her. It did not bother her nearly as much as she knew that she knew that it should. She should be shivering and her jaws should be tapping her teeth against each other. However even this was not as concerning as the fact that she could not see or hear any sound of her friends. 

What if they have drowned? What if they are dead? What if-

No! They're not, keep looking. Just keep looking! You will find them,  you must find them!

She ran across the decks and then to the edges as her heartbeat became wild as she looked all around the waves. She soon spotted that there were several people overboard and that they were all dead. She quickly scanned to see if any of them were her friends. To her relief they were not. She felt another tremor run throughout the ship as it hit another large wave. She then gripped the edge as she felt a hand on her back. She felt something hit the back of her hands causing her to retract them.

"Go back to the Demon Realm!" Shouted a man, as he forced her forward and she crashed into the waves…
