If there was one thing Shuniah was sure about now, was that the man in front of her really liked to kill people. It was written in his eyes she saw the kind before. "Hmm, well I suppose I could tell a lot of th..." she had just started to talk when she noticed the the flex of the man's wrist, meaning his intention to attack. "of all the places of the world!!" As his sword began to move it was obvious that parrying with a dagger wouldn't be effective. With a quick move of the left foot she would be able to push herself away so she held the sword catcher as to try to block until his blade began to close in. She then retired her blade as to hide it under her wrist as she pushed herself back. It was a close call, and the man managed to cut a stripe of her Breeches but at least she was safe, and judging by the power of the attack the sword should strike the wooden floor of the deck and, with luck, get stuck. She quickly rolled away and jumped on her feet with a kip up, extending the arms in front, palms up, asking a break.
"WHAT THE FUCK MAN! YOU CANNOT ASK A QUESTION AND INTERRUPT THE ANSWER LIKE THAT!!" Her breathing was heavy, it was all wet and frankly getting quite cold, she couldn't afford to fight nor to die, but with this specific individual she had to be very careful. It was in that moment that a giant squid landed on the deck near her, a tentacle almost slapping her face, followed by the whale which was now a naked ripped man, behaving like everything was just as usual. The nonchalance in his words was frustrating. " Is all of this really happening? Maybe that's it Shun, you lost it completely". Luckily the tempest answer of Travik brought her focus back *Nope, it's all real, and you're in a lot of trouble it seems, focus!*" okay first of all, why would I lie? huh?? Why would someone, like me, a skinny woman, sneak on a little ship, used by two psychopaths who hunt" she aggressively pointed at the dead carcass of the creature "GIANT SQUIDS, go with them in the middle of nowhere, and then, announce her presence instead of sneaking up on you while you sleep? Have you thought of that before drawing your blade? Has any of this occurred to you?" Her black eyes then switched to the other guy which seemed more reasonable hoping that he would be her plan B.
The wind made her shiver from cold, *Travik, if I make it out in one piece, you have some serious drying to do* *I know I know, saw the hole thing, listen if this goes bananas just grab a plank or whatever and run for it ok? we'll figure something out**Run where, I don't know if you noticed but**we're in the middle of the ocean blabla, listen just trust me**I must be in serious danger if I'm about to trust you**Hey, that hurts you know**Many things do, now shut up for a second*
Surprisingly Travik did. |
