The silence of the returning wind
I turned to her, flabbergasted. My mouth hung open, but i shut it quick, turning back to crooney. "I didn't start anything, I just helped some fools sober up."
Crooney didn't seem to hear it over his laughter. "Oh I like this one. She's got enough fire to boil the seas in you, Roland." I blushed, looking defeated. He wouldn't listen to what I would say. He pointed to the hold. "I don't mean to interrupt your date, but the little accident you left us with this morning breached the hull. Theres a pool for you to drain beneath the deck. Go work your magic." I tried to argue, but I heard a voice come from behind me that shut me up.
"Your not talking back now, are you boy?" I cursed under my breath, and turned. "No Cap'n. I was just a little unenthusiastic about draining the lower deck."
"Well now, you wouldn't have to if you hadn't crashed the main mast, now would you?" I huffed irritated and slumped off to the opening of the second deck.
Greuwn stepped over to Verity and smiled at her. "Well hello there young lady. Would you mind accompanying me back to the cabin for a moment?" His request was rather sudden, but his tone was relaxed and unthreatening.
While they talked. I focused on the lapping liquid beneath me, and began gently flowing my arms back and forth, like I was pulling a rope, but in a dance. The water began to rise in a stream, flowing out of the deck and back into the sea.
