《2 ~ From Bermuda Triangle to Skeletons》

Sora Storm:
I emerged from the surface of the water, gasping for air and clinging to the board. Then I sat up and looked around. The beach was nowhere to be seen, just endless water.

Did the wave drive me away so far?

Then I remembered that Zak was also in the vortex, and my eyes looked around. "Zak? Zak !!". No Answer. If he was not here ... where could he be?

I drove the surfboard with my hands to get somewhere, because somewhere there had to be beach, even if it was not the one I knew.

Suddenly, waves drove me forward, I turned around and couldn't believe my eyes. A huge octopus appeared and made strong waves with her tentacles. Apparently I had invaded his territory and wanted to chase me away. I did that as my arms moved faster and faster.

The monster hit me again and a big strong wave drove me away from it. Unfortunately, itwas so strong that it pulled me underwater, but barely could grab the board with both arms. The current tore me back and forth, then I slammed against a rock in the sea and was unconscious.

???:

This wretched landlubber! He should have given me the sword and the necklace with the stone instead of fighting against me. Because of him, the ship is now damaged, but at least only outwardly ...

"General Bones, there is something on the radar!", One of the skeletons exclaimed, where I immediately noticed. "About this ship from just now?". "No Sir, something smaller ...".

What could approach our ship now that is small?

"Head for this something! I want to know what it is! "I commanded and went down the stairs to the lower deck, which was broken by another gun cannon. I took the telescope and actually saw something floating in the water. Finally, we approached the object and my eyes now recognized it more closely: A child, more precisely a girl, floating on a wooden board in the water.

"What're you all standing there so stupid? Get the girl out of the water!". Said and done. Two of the skeletons fetched a rope and pulled the child out of the water onto the ship and dropped it in front of me. It had brown, short hair and wore a yellow top and brown trousers, as well as a bag on her back. I nudge her.

Sora Storm:
Something or someone was constantly pressing against my shoulder, and then I spat out water and blinked. "Wake up little one!". My vision became more and more clear, so did the outline and then recognized a skeleton. Wait a moment! Skeleton!?

I wanted to sprint away, but this golden skeleton grabbed my left arm and looked at me with the green eyes. "What has a little girl like you lost out there?" "I... I... it was a storm by me and was driven into the sea by the strong current ..." I replied and this skeleton guy grabbed the back collar of my shirt with his right arm, which was a hook or a hook sickle, and let me hang over the water, where I fidgeted with panic.

"Normally, I would feed you to the sharks now, but I'm sure Master Skullivar will be interested in you." "L-Listen ... I didn't do anything bad, I was only flushed into the sea by a storm I-I do not even know where I am". He threw me to the ground and I held my head. "Do you have any idea who you are dealing with?". With a shake of the head, I gave a 'no' as an answer. "In front of you is Golden Bones, General of Master Skullivar's skeleton army, and you little one are on the Demoniac in the Bermuda Triangle."

Did I understand that correctly? Bermuda Triangle?! But that's just a legend! Or not?...

"L-Listen, I just want to go home ... not anymore else," I tried to explain. "Time will tell", then two skeletons grabbed me and I tried to get free while we went inside the big gray ship. "Let me go!", I called and was then thrown into a small room by them. "Stay a good girl," Bones said, closing the door. I got up and grabbed the bars. "Let me go, I just wanna go home! ", I called after him, but he was already gone and silence prevailed. I took off my backpack and sat down on the other side of the cell, hugging my legs.

Finally, tears came to my eyes ...
