At The Wrong Place, At The Wrong Time Part (1/2)
Although from outside it seemed like he was fully unconscious, on the inside he had a thought process going on.
‘‘Am I ever going to meet my mother again? ’’
‘‘What will happen to me? ’’
‘‘What lead me to here?’’
The sudden blood loss may have affected his ability to recall events, now all he is doing is struggling and struggling to get out of this state.
The water around the ship was calm, the weather was sunny, though it didn’t seem like it would stay this way for much longer.
Thora and Emily laid Nick on the bed, as it was the best they could do for now.
Both of them are powerless and from now on they can only rely on faith.
After they laid him down they went back to the table they were sitting on before this mess happened.
The police restored everything to normal, even the table.
Emily went to check on the unconscious Nick in hopes he would have recovered a bit.
The blood that was spewing from his shoulder has stopped.
Seeing this Emily let out a gasp and went to report it to Thora, who was more than happy to hear that.
Nick’s mind was starting to clear up, though he still couldn’t remember what led him here.
His heart was beating really fast, almost looked like his chest would explode. He was sweating all over and no one could do anything about this terrible condition.
Thora went to see for herself if Nick was getting better.
To her surprise, his condition was only worsening.
He displayed most symptoms of high core temperature but there was something off.
The bandage that was white is now black.
Thora saw that and called over Emily.

‘‘What is happening to him?’’’
‘‘Could it be that the monster placed a curse on him before dying?’’
‘‘If that is the case his condition is going to worsen until’’
‘‘Until he dies.’’
Thora ended Emily’s sentence even though it was obvious.
Both of them stood still and silent. The room had one bed and got little sunlight, but the sunlight that entered gave it a special and somewhat beautiful feel in these dark times.
After a little while of shock, they started moving closer to Nick to check if they were dreaming. Dreaming they weren’t.
Feeling that they had no idea of Nick’s mind and his state at the moment, feeling they were useless and there was no point in them staying in the room they went for the door.
Immediately after touching the handle both of their hearts skipped a beat, they stopped breathing, their minds became dark as both of them unwillingly turned around only to see Nick open his eyes, which were now shining in the way that the monster’s were.
He stood up with a huge smile on his face and a terrifying look in his eyes.
With a crack to his neck and knuckles, he let out a sigh and started mumbling something. It looked like he was summoning the Devil if I have to be honest.
‘‘Levántate, aparece, renace’’
‘‘Machen Sie eine Krise‘‘
When suddenly, after mumbling all these strange things he started speaking in the voice of the monster:
‘‘This body is really nice, oh so powerful I can feel it’’
He unwrapped his bandage and placed it on the bed.
After that, he got closer to Emily, who looked like all her life was sucked out of her.
‘‘Who are you?You are special, aren’t you? I can feel power emerging from you, I can see what blood flows in your vanes.’’

After saying these strange things he went out of the room and left our girls there.
Immediately after he left the room, a cannonball landed a hit on the ship and it started shaking.
The girls got out of the trance and went searching for Nick and looking for the cause of the blast.
After they went out of the room they saw two pirate ships to their sides and Nick on the floor.
They watched as the black fluid escaped through his mouth and launched at one of the ships.
Pirates attacking a civilian ship wasn't that rare but wasn't common either. An attack like this would've had to be planned a few days in advance.
Maybe Glegmore had something to do with it. It may have been his backup plan if something went wrong like it did. With the monster and the beast ruining his plans he probably wouldn't have been appeased.
These ships resembled the pirate ships you would see in movies but a little bit bigger.
Four guys jumped to the now wrecked ship. They restrained our heroes, tied them up and took them to the bigger ship which seemingly was the captain ship.
The captain of our ship teleported to somewhere with an ‘‘I’m out’’.
Nick’s shoulder was now fine but the situation they were in wasn’t fine.
They were tied to a poll on the ship. Their mouths were shut with rope as well.
A man with a captain pirate hat came to our heroes.
His eyes were closed.
Not for long though, as he opened his now glowing eyes and smiled.
Seems like the monster got him.
‘‘Ha ha ha. Look who we’ve got here again. Pirates, reverse the ship and head to Locu! I have business to do there.’’
I guess the fact that he was going for Locu was good, other than that there wasn’t any way the situation could get worse.
The monster was probably planning something like this all along. It probably slipped out of its grandma cover right before the international police took off with it.
‘‘You kids will suffer and pay the price for messing with me. For it is I, servant of master Denswal- Eridanus!’’
After saying this he emerged into the typical villain laugh.
Our heroes now have to face off an even greater challenge, one that might require more strength than they actually have…
