CRASH

 

The crack of thunder could be heard repeatedly as the boat they were on entered the storm. The waves were causing the ship to rock, a lot. Cracking could be heard, then the sudden crash as lighting struck the sea. The crew were all working, making sure the ship stayed on course towards their destination, the Dragon's Triangle. With each crack of thunder, the lighting got closer and closer. The wind could be heard whipping against the sides of the boat, and the cracking of some glass could also be heard. While all of this was going on, two particular people on the boat were sitting around, waiting for them to reach their location. A negotiator that has talent, but often has trouble actually getting his act together, and a archaeologist who knew more about this place, then anyone else. Little did they know, they were going to be in for the time of their lives.

"GAAAAAAAAA" shouted Gray as he covered his ears.

the rocking back and forth and the constant noise was a bit too much for his frail, mind and body.

 

"this is the last time i ride anything less than a first class! I SWEAR!" he went over to a wooden crate and took out a bottle of whiskey

he stumbled and walked over to his suite case and pulled out a glass.

shakily he poured it into the glass and looked around

"arrrg does anyone have any ice?" 

 

his whole life Gray never had to worry about anything more than mild annoyance, so this to him was a tortrture!

[RainbowDaringDash]

Blackwing was leaning against a wall as the thunder was cracking, and the lighting was striking. He was hopping to make it to the Dragon's triangle in once piece. He noticed someone nearby, drinking whisky. and trying to not freak out, well, anymore then he already was. Black started walking over, only for the whole boat to rock again, causing him to fly against the wall. He yelped in pain as his back slammed into the wall. He landed on his feet, panting for a second before walking back over to him. He patted him on the back, trying to help him out. In truth, Black was scared as hell also, though he was trying not to show it. "Stay close" He said to him, sitting down next to him. 

 

He stayed their for ten minutes, tryign to keep him calm, then the smack of lighting could be heard, then the screechign of metal being cut and ripped apart. Black heard water, but not water outside, he heard some water flowing into the hull. He looked around the small room they were in, then noticed where it was coming from, the ship had been breached.

[augercorn]

Grey smiled as he stood up with the young gryphon

“its meant to have a bit of ice with it, want some?” he said offering him the bottle

 

but then he heard a sound, he didn’t know what it was but he knew it wasn’t good

 

his brain went blank, his muscles stiffened “uhhhh uhhhuhuhuh!” he couldn’t move trapped in his own body

 

“I cant move-help HELP ME SOMEBOD I CANT MOVE!” he screamed inside his head

[RainbowDaringDash]

As he heard the person next to him say that, he looked at him. Gray was scared, really scared, and Black could tell. Just as he was about to help him move more, the sudden screech of scratching metal, and then seconds later, a flood of water started gushing into the halls and rooms. Their was enough room to breath, but the water was to strong to fight. As they were gushed away, Black noticed a hatch in the roof ahead. Using all his will to live, and his strength, he caught onto it with one hand, yelling as his arm strained as the water was flowing agasint him, making it hard to hold on. He noticed Grey coming towards him, he moved a arm. He couldnt catch him, he had to hope the guy could grab onto his hand himself

[augercorn]

Grey felt the water flow up to him,

“move!-MOVE!-MOVE!” he tried to force his body to react but he couldn’t.

 

that’s when he saw  the gryphon opening a hatch

 

there was a way out! There was a way to survive!

 

He handed a hand out for him to grab

 

Grey saw him he knew what he had to do,

“come on! I HAVE TO I HAVE TO!” he screamed at himself

 

"gahhhhhh!"

and he did it he reached his hand out and with help from the gryphon pulled himself out of the flooding chamber

[RainbowDaringDash]

SUCCESS

Black was glad when the guy managed to grab on, looks like he had a chance to survive, they both did. Although if you looked at Black, it seemed like he knew EXACTLY what he was doing, and that he was not scared, but in all honesty he was scared. He had never been in any situation like this, but somehow, he just knew what to do. Although scared, he forced himself to do what he could to survive. He lifted Grey up, struggling to do so with the rushing water, and made him able to grab onto the same hatch he was holding onto to. Once he had a grip on it, with his hand Black started to try to open the hatch, but it was jammed, and wouldnt budge much. 

"OPEN" Black screamed, the water rising by the second, and the hatch no closer to being open

[augercorn]

Grey watched jumping up and down panicking wanting the gryphon to save him

But he couldn’t

He wasn’t opening it

 

Grey threw his hand on the latches and pulled, they were jammed by something

“ahhhhhh” he screamed looking around trying to think of something.

 

He saw a piece of burst pipe and grabbed it as it floated by him.

“GAWWWWW” he shouted as he slammed the latches forcing the latches thru 

[RainbowDaringDash]

Just as Black had given up hope, Grey had forced the hatrch to open. Black was glad, he seemed to know what he was doing. Black pushed with all his might with one hand, forcing it to open. After, he pulled himself out of the hall, and reached down for his friend. 

"Come on" 

[augercorn]

Grey trudged thru the water, it was so cold! so gross!

he went forward and with one hand took his saviors talons and the other grabbing a peice of the bulk head pulling himself out

 

"gahhhh ohhhh I WANNA GET OUT OF HERE!" he screamed his body now fully adapted to the enviroment

[RainbowDaringDash]

As they got on the deck, Black panted for a second, glad that they were out of that rushing water, though it became worse. As they were on the deck, the waves were splashing great deals of water onto the ship, and the rain was pelting down hard on them. Black patted Grey on the back as a thank you, though just as he was about to speak, a cracking sound could be heard. If you looked behind Blackwing, you would see the ship starting to split in two. Black turned, only for the whole ship to sink a bit as the ship broke in two, both sinking. 

 

SH1T

 

Black thought to himself outloud as he fell backwards, starting to slide down the ship into the raging sea.

[augercorn]

Grey couldn’t tell what was going on, but he could tell it wasn’t good!

 

Then he felt himself fall into the water

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAA” he screamed clawing at the hull for a grip

but to no avail he fell into the water

 

the icy, smelly water

 

Grey was a trained swimmer and gave a strong kick brining himself to the surface

“gaaaaaaaaa” he gulped for air and swam forward grabbing a floating crate

 

he looked around for the helpful gryphon

“HAYYY HAAAAAY!”  he shouted looking for him

[RainbowDaringDash]

As he was dragged under the water, Black managed to grab hold of a loose piece of floating salvage. As the waves kept pounding him, Black felt himself slipping unconcious. He felt something dripping on his head, and as he felt their, he noticed it was not water. As he looked at it, his hand was red. He sighed before passing out completely, allowing the waves to do as they wished with him. 

 

Later

 

Blackwing's eyes open in a flash, coughing loudly as water exited his lungs, and splashed on the ground next to him. He layed their, panting for breath. His whole body was sore, he felt like it had just been crushed by a truck. His chest was finding it hard to get enough oxygen in them, but he managed to slowly regain his senses.

[augercorn]

Grey looked around as the current dragged him somewhere unkown.

 

He had lost the gryphon that had saved him, lost his wallet, lost everything!

 

Grey slammed his head into the crate and sobbed crying his eyes out like a baby, because like a baby there was nothing he could do.

 

After what seemed like a whole year Grey slowly was brought up to an island.

After crying himself dry Grey let go of the crate and swan up to the beach using the strong current to his advantage.

 

After coming up to the beach he walked to the sand and fell to the ground

 

His mind was a storm, he didn’t know what to do! So he just layed down and rested

[RainbowDaringDash]

After a solid ten minutes of laying on the ground, trying to get air, Black managed to roll onto his side, grunting in pain as he did so. Once he was on his side, he procceded to go onto his stomach, from their getting off the ground. Once he was on his feet, he looked around. They were on a beach, in one direction the sea, the next some abandoned bunkers, and a cliff. He looked around more, noticing the other person was nearby. Black didnt approach him, he couldnt. His legs were still frozen from the water. Black panted more, trying to regain a bit more strength. In around a minute, he managed to start walking towards the bunkers, hoping the other guy would see them too. Black knew they were the best chance right now.

[augercorn]

Grey looked up and saw his gryphon friend! He was glad he was alive but he was heading towards a mysteries bunker

 

Grey didn’t know anything about it but he had bad feeling about it, fear mostly

 

“NO noononono!” he said pulling himself up shaking his hand trying to make him stop

 

maybe it was seeing a bunch of war films or maybe he was just in shock but he knew they couldn’t go in there

[RainbowDaringDash]

As he was walking towards it, Black heard what sounded like footsteps behind him. He thought it was just his friend, though he was wrong. After ten seconds, black turned around, only for a fist to hit his head hard. The blow sent him to the ground, knocking him out cold on impact. 

 

Another guy was creeping behind Grey, about to do the same thing. 

[augercorn]

Grey saw some people coming over the hill of the beach he turned around and sure enough there were someponies behind him also 

"OH THANK CELESTIA! our .. our boat we sunk and we had to " he was interupted the pony walked right up to him and punched him in the face

"AWWWWWWWWWWW WHATS WRONG WITH YOU!" Grey shouted enraged at the misbehavor, the ponie hit him again sending him to the sand

"GAWWWWWWW WHAT ARE YOU SOME KIND OF!" now him and another pony began to stomp on grey which finally caused him to pass out
