The sound of the alarm echoed through every corner of the ship, its shrill tones filling the air.
From the intercom, the Captain's voice came through, urging all passengers and crew to remain calm.
Confusion and fear were palpable as they grappled with the catastrophic situation unfolding before them.
Their vessel had been struck by a fierce storm, massive waves battering the ship, tossing it about violently.
As Talon stepped out of his cabin, he muttered under his breath, "Damn, this storm came out of nowhere. If it doesn't let up soon, this could end badly."
"Ugh! Did everyone pay a fortune just to experience this disaster?" Mei retorted, her voice barely more than a murmur.
Talon and Zhang Mei exited her cabin together, Mei still dressed in her pajamas.
As they stepped out of their room, right in front of Mei's door was Claire's room.
They exited simultaneously, facing each other in the narrow hallway.
