CHAPTER TWO
It was now morning, and the ship hadn’t arrived yet. I realized how quickly the night went by despite the fact I didn’t sleep. How could I anyways? I was responsible for two clueless idiots! Calypso and Sorren awoke not long apart from each other and started to question me on what had happened. It wasn’t a surprise.
“What happened?! Did you stay up all night?” Calypso asked.
“I did. I was watching to see if we would arrive in the middle of the night. Then I would be able to wake you up so we would not get lost in the middle of nowhere. So, you’re welcome.`` I explained with a teasing grin.
“Why thank you! We would be nothing without you, Sergeant Wyvern. With your sacrifice of labor and sight, we shall survive this journey! It will be our conquest and we will conque-” Calypso declared in a rant with a heavy, forced French accent.
“You are nuts, absolutely nuts.” I cut him off with a short smile, shaking my head.
“I know! I like it that way. Need some contrast to ‘we will all die! The world is nothing!” Calypso teased me, he was trying to imitate me but.. I didn’t sound like that. Did I?
“I don’t sound like that! I’m just cautious. Also in my defense, I have never said ANYTHING like that!” I protested my thoughts.
“Fine, fine then. You win.” Calypso gave an eyeroll and plopped himself onto the floor.
I shrugged and turned away, ruffling his hair before I did to make sure he wasn’t truly mad at me. He giggled and swatted me away. Calypso was like a child really, and I enjoyed that. We had been friends for so long I was quite used to it by now. We had met when I was about 8, I had been going to school at the time and he did as well. He found me in a tree and begged me to teach him how to get up there.
“I want to come! Will you show me, Sir?”
“I will.. It’s not too hard.”
The memory of that day flashed through my head. Calypso falling repeatedly, his scratched face and giggling. Nothing could make that boy stop smiling and calling me ‘Sir.’ As an 8-year old, the respect was welcomed happily as no one had ever treated me that way. My thoughts were interrupted by Sorren stirring in his sleep and muttering. Sorren woke up moments later and looked straight at me, seeing I was staring at him. I instantaneously looked away, embarrassed.
“What..?” Sorren questioned.
“Nothing. I was making sure you were okay.”
“Alright then.” He gave a slow nod.
Calypso barged in at that moment. “Sorrenn!! Are you hungry?”
“I am actually.” Sorren nodded.
The two went off to cook breakfast, with the help of Calypso for Sorren to be able to stand and walk. I continued what I was thinking about. My mind trailed back to my mental conversation about what my mother was currently doing. I assumed she was most likely sewing some clothes to sell later on in the week. I wondered if she was thinking about me.. I was thinking about her whether she wanted me to or not.
“Arriving in Oxford, Britain shortly!” yelled the ship captain.
Finally, we would be able to get off of this ship. I stood and so did Sorren and Calypso, who had now finished eating their breakfast. The two were discussing what they were going to do when they got to my mother and I’s house. I predicted it would be about half an hour before we got there.
Suddenly, the ship jerked with a large bump. We had crashed. Water was flooding the ship. We had hit something, but being in the haul I didn’t know what it was. In my mind, I panicked and grabbed the hand of my friend, dragging him out. Sorren had grabbed onto Calypso. The ship rocked violently, it was utter chaos. I got Calypso and his friend into a ‘safe’ spot, even though nothing really was safe at this moment, I thought this would be the best choice. The ship then dived to the left and I was sliding down. I frantically tried to grab something but nothing stopped me. I plunged into the water as pieces of wood, metal and other debris crashed into the water. Calypso has climbed out of the place where he was before. My friend was screaming, I could audibly hear it even being under water. As I started to try and bring myself up, I knew why he was screaming. He knew the problem… and I remembered that moment. I couldn’t swim.
