A Storm is Coming

At the first drop of rain, every crew scattered to prepare for the storm.

"Round-up the sails 'n secure the hold!" Skull was giving instructions as she navigated the wheels. "We got a storm comin'!"

Meanwhile, the mercenaries all hid in the comfort of their quarters while Ryu and Kai stayed on deck.

Ryu wanted to experience what a storm was like while Kai was sweating buckets.

"What are you doing? Kai asked. "We should get inside before the storm hits."

Ryu didn't spare Kai a glance. His eyes were on the beaming thunder in the sky and the darkness above that soon followed. 

Rain-like waterfalls poured so fast and intense that all Ryu saw were blurs. The ship rocked back and forth as the waves grew louder and bigger by the seconds.

"Orghp!" Kai held his mouth when he was about to puke. "This is bad. I need to find my darling Fifi!"
