2021-08-08 10:40:02Three days passed since that incident with Skyr’s father. We never talked about it again nor did we get a chance to. He was just his usual self like nothing ever happened. In fact, I feel like he has gotten a little too talkative lately that it worries me.
As for the planning of our escape, Trei says that he’ll be the one to make the plans. He gave us each a gym bag one day and told us to fill it up with the gears and materials that we wish to pack and he’ll come and pick it up in two days.
He never told us the plan. He says that the fewer people to know about the plan, the better. I think that he was referring to the time when we were in Atlantis. He just wanted to be cautious in order for our plan to be successful.
But to be honest, I have this inkling feeling that he doesn’t want bot

As a few more days went by, I was dying of excitement and anticipation of when we would be leaving this place. And throughout all that time, I haven’t seen Trei even once. We even have another guy playing as our chaperone to drive us from the facility and to wherever the location that Guill wishes for us to use.I believe that there was even a time that I almost forgot that we even have an escape plan until I was getting my nightmares again. This time, I saw Silisk swallowing my father, whom I have also lost contact with since my time in Atlantis, whole. It got to the point where my brother would often go to my room and sleep on the small couch just to keep me company until I would fall asleep again.Usually, I would be fine on my own as long as I have the journal that Trei lent me to keep me company. I usually hide the journal in the gym bag that T

It has been about 8 hrs since we escaped from the rebel’s facility. Byron and I were reading the journals together, but it wasn’t an easy task especially with the dim lights. “Can someone take my place? The autopilot on this thing is busted and I want to stretch a bit.” He groaned.“Can I?” I went forward to ask. But upon seeing all the complicated switches, I was starting to reconsider my offer. I can hardly tell what the other dashboard on the car is for. Why did I suddenly think that I could handle piloting a submarine?“I don’t think you have a license for this yet judging from your face, Nathalia.” I turned to give Skyr a sheepish smile when I saw that he was looking at me while fighting off one of his own.“I’ll help out.” Trei rudely pull

I woke up from the sudden jerk of the room. It was a strong rattling motion that I even fell out of my bed and landed on the cold metallic floor. I sat up and rubbed my right arm that fell first upon the impact of my fall.I was currently sleeping in one of the rooms in the sub that I was assigned to. The room in the submarine was small at about 2.5 by 1.8 meters. It was enough to hold a single small bed, a table, and a chair. You would think that for an Atlantean submarine that this would cater the same function as my pod back in Atlantis. Unfortunately, it was a big fat and an uncomfortable NO.Apparently, this version of a submarine was considered an old relic in Atlantis. The ship’s design was made 50 years ago, which is astonishing coming from someone who got the chance to live there.So

We headed for the nearest clothing store that we could find and started rummaging through items. The store was completely open and had no glass that separated it from the outside, which wasn’t helping our case because with the lack of an air-condition I could feel myself starting to sweat. Skyr was at the other side of the store as he looked for larger T-shirts and shorts for himself. I couldn’t handle the heat anymore and randomly took a tank top and some shorts from the rack that seemed to be about my size. I headed towards Skyr’s direction and showed him what I got. Skyr nodded his head and turned towards one of the shop attendees managing the store. For some reason, I have this nagging feeling that this girl was tailing him because of his looks even when he was wearing my sunglasses. I was certain that she was crushing on him at this point. “You pic

‘Master, I found your other half.’ Kalia, a gray dolphin, told me. Skyr and I were on another part of the beach where it is slightly secluded. We couldn’t go back to our old spot because a couple of kids decided to lurk there, we had no choice but to transfer.As we were looking for a way to contact them, I felt the presence of this dolphin and asked him to call for Byron and Trei. I could obviously just use the radio that Trei gave us, but I would rather not risk it.‘Were you able to talk to one of them?’ I wanted to make sure that she was talking about Trei. As a sea folk, Trei should be able to understand their tongue.‘I think the one guy with black hair did. I think they&rsquo

The water’s cool temperature seeped into my wet suit the moment I was ejected from the submarine. I believe the only dry thing on me is my hands, which were being protected by my combat gloves.My lungs have gotten used to the fact that I could breathe underwater that I could no longer cough or hold my breath to allow it to adjust to the transition. Now, it was one swift process.At the corner of my eyes, I saw Trei gesturing for us forward. We swam towards him until he lifted his hands for us to stop. He pointed at something ahead and we saw a boat passing over our heads. Trei waved for our attention again and pointed downward.We nodded and followed Trei deeper into the water so we wouldn’t be able to attract any unwanted attention. Especially since we were with our blue friend over here.

In that split second just before the metahuman grabbed him, he met my gaze before sending a powerful vacuum behind. The strong currents dragged the giant jellyfish metahuman several feet away from him.And after that, Byron met my gaze with a wide grin on his grin.‘You...You heard me, didn’t you? Byron?’‘Yeah. Can you hear me? Hello? HelloOoOo?’ If Byron did not smile and responded to me, I wouldn’t have believed it. But still, even with the proof right in front of me, I still can’t believe it. Guill’s theory actually worked!‘NATHALIA!? HELLO! CAN YOUUUUU HEAAAR MEEE-’‘YES, BY

I got nervous because a current started to form the moment I freed the hole to the entrance. Byron and I gripped the walls beside the hole just before we were sucked in to prevent ourselves from being dragged inside along with the current.We both waited for a few seconds until the vortex finally came to a stop.‘I think we might get ambushed if we go inside now.’ Byron pointed out.‘Gee. Thanks for stating the obvious, Byron. Let’s go.’ I moved towards the entrance but Byron blocked my path.‘Maybe I should go in first to be safe.’ He offered.

“...and after that, the sea serpent named Silisk was finally reunited with his beloved master. Lord Meruem.” I glanced down at the two children before me as I finished the story. Two girls. One had platinum blonde hair, and the other one had a pure white one. Though they look like sisters, twins even, they’re not. They’re just cousins. The girl with the platinum blonde hair is named Alice. She’s five years old. Her eyes were a pretty shade of blue, just like her mother. Her dress, which was obviously a product from the surface, is teal in color. She never pays any attention to my story, not unless it involves animals. She kind of reminds me of my brother, in a way, who is still obsessed with sea creatures up to this date. The white-haired little girl is named Olive. She’s also five. Her eyes are of the same shade of yellow as her father's. She has wrink

“Holy shit. That thing is so nasty up close.” I could hear Trei’s commentary somewhere in the distance, but I could not look for him because I could not get distracted as I held Silisk in place.‘Master, we’ll help.’ Dodo, one of the Megalodons, came out of the water and tackled Silisk away. But before they could disappear into the water, Iocules came to assist. His long tentacles wrapped around the serpent’s mouth, and he forced it close. Because Silisk was too big for the Megalodon, the other sea creatures assisted, including the guardians from Urei’s domain.A Kraken, three megalodons, and the five sea monsters weren’t enough to keep the serpent in the water. It wasn’t until Fifi arrived and placed her weight along with the others that they were able to keep the snake in check.

Riding on Nalu’s back while he runs on the water’s surface was way worse than when he’s running underwater. There was no buoyancy force that fights and cancels his speed, and let me tell you, Nalu is called a water horse for a reason. Byron and I had to keep on our helmets because of the wind resistance at Nalu’s speed.If Nalu had not wrapped his watery mane on us around us as seatbelts, we might have been thrown to the water a few minutes earlier.“Nathalia, where is he taking us?” My brother asked behind me, which I heard from the radio in our helmets.“Puerto Rico. Apparently, that’s Silisk’s next target.” I said and glanced down on the octopus curled on my arm as I grabbed onto Nalu’s mane tightly.
Through The Storm Chapter 71 Group Separation
Our group separated for the plan. Knowing that Ylgarr is dead, Atlantis no longer has a leader to command them. And, with the release with the serpent, Skyr was certain that the people must be in a state of panic. Also, with Rachel’s situation, she needs immediate help, which she can find in Atlantis.Trei plans to head for the rebel facility to talk to his great-something grandfather and send help to assist us in the battle. If there’s one thing that we know that Silisk would do, it's that he wants to floor the lands. But the question is, where?“You guys take Fifi,” Byron instructed Skyr before petting his prehistoric dinosaur buddy when she let out a whine in protest. “Sorry, Fifi. I need you to protect Rachel while delivering them safely back to Atlantis. Can you do that for me?” Byron got his response when Fifi stopped w

Silisk was gone. He managed to escape the storm by devouring the blood of Iocules(Max) that lingered in the water so he could pass the storm. We didn’t go after him. Instead, Skyr, Fifi, and I looked for Byron and Rachel.We weren’t the ones who found them. It was Trei who contacted us and informed us that Nalu was able to them. He says that they’re floating on what’s left of Silisk’s dead skin in the water. It wasn’t long because I used my connection to track down Nalu and immediately found the others. They were all standing on the massive snakeskin chunk on the water that served as a mini-island.I did not wait for Fifi to stop as I rushed towards them. When I landed on the skin, I felt relieved when I saw Byron and Rachel, but not in a good way. Byron was holding onto Rachel tightly as Emily tried to stop the bleeding from
Through The Storm Chapter 69 Nightmare
I held onto Byron’s arms as the island began to shake violently and Silisk slowly awakened. What seemed like a massive rock behind the crazed form of Ylgarr suddenly began to shake. It wasn’t until slits formed and opened that I realized that those were Silisk’s eyes that cracked open. The slits of his pupils focused on us before raising his head.His body, which we were standing on, began to move and lifted us up and away from Ylgarr. Watching Silisk shedding away his scales was terrifying. I felt like I was watching my nightmare come true right before my eyes.He was massive that we were just as tall as his slitted pupils. We had to look up just to watch him emerge and pull his face off of his shedding that seemed to stick together due to time.“He lives. He LIVES! I DID IT!” I

A sudden wave of turbulence burst in our way the moment we crossed the barrier that Helighor warned us about. Byron fought off most of the wave that was headed our way using his magic. But it was pitch black in these parts of the water that Byron couldn’t fight off every wave that threatened to wash us away. The only lights here are coming from our helmets and the submarine that Emily and Watson were in.Falco and the other metahumans moved closer to our huddled group and pushed us back whenever it seemed like we were going to slip away. I saw a couple of light flickering by Fifi’s armpits, which assured me that at least Emily and Watson were still with us.‘Helighor!’ I reached out to him with my mind because I didn’t know how long we could last in this weather.

The next morning we left the crate back on the island and only brought what we could with us. All of us were fully geared as we rode onto Fifi’s back. Byron, Trei, Rachel, Skyr, and I rode Fifi while Emily and Watson were driving the battleships they managed to scavenge.Skyr and I were sitting side by side as we rode Fifi. We haven’t talked about it yet, but it was evident that our relationship has changed after that kiss. We managed to talk about it last night and agreed that it’s not the time to tell anyone about us just yet because it might cause a distraction for some of us. We had never been in a relationship before until recently, so we were still awkward about it. But all we know is that we got more motivation to help us win this war.I noticed Jack swimming at my other side while looking in my direction. Skyr ignored him, but he didn&

We were riding on top of Fifi’s back when we met up with the others. I thought that we would be meeting a ship, but it turns out that it was just a huge crate of gear supplies. We mounted that box onto Fifi’s back with the help of the metahuman squadron C, who was also not happy with getting abandoned. Emily, Watson, and Rachel were the only ones who talked to us. They informed us that they were able to scavenge a few working pieces of equipment from the wreckage on the previous war. Watson was able to scavenge a couple of ships that he and Emily could use. As for Rachel, she still has her handgun that she was currently cleaning.While the others were busy talking and checking on the crate, Byron and I sat at the backmost part on Fifi’s back as we followed behind Helighor.‘So…’
