     ✦━ ━ 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒 flutter open as the rough wind passes by your face, your body plummets down from the excess blue abyss to another blue abyss. Your eyes though still quite sleepy adjusted to the bright light of the sun and with the vast liquid down below in your slightly blurred vision you couldn't lie, you panicked a bit. 

Taking a shaky breath you waved your arms as your brown eyes took a few glances around, your fingers undoing the spell that you placed your wings under and without a doubt you used the muscle in your feathery assets to stop yourself mid way from falling into the sea water below.

Jerking your hair to a stop from its annoying bantering you exhaled the breath you have been subconsciously holding, now taking the time to glance around this blue abyss, the sun was up meaning that it was still morning right now, the fluffy water holding puffs flouted their way towards whatever destination that benefits them right above your head.

Okay, that was scary...not like I suffered worse but where in the world am I? Am I close or far from his trip to supposed death?

You couldn't tell, having nothing to go off of but the first five hour stream he posted a year or month ago, not that it matters at the moment, you couldn't recall where he would be but you focused on the main goal at the moment: finding this woman's ship. 

You remember from this person's video that this particular ship was enormous for the amount of crew members that actually stay there and their captain has a bit of a hoarder issue since from the video showcased the amount of money, rare gemstones and magical items she has on her belt.

You folded your arms tilting your head downwards as the salty smell of the sea filled your senses, your mind told your body to give this whole tiring event a few more minutes before actually making an attempt to find this crew. 

Giving an exhausted sigh your time of ten minutes and probably a little more was up, now your hand was at work summoning the Golden Vision, a diamond shaped star with a slit pupil, appearing quite nicely above your eyes. 

You closed your own two eyes and focused on the one hovering above your forehead. The diamond shaped vision uses the slit pupil it has to broaden your view of the ocean as you readied your wings to start traveling forward.

Flapping has become an annoying exercise for you at the moment, two hours and counting has passed and you still haven't found the ship, this unfruitful quest irked you but you calmed yourself multiple times in order for you to push on, maybe the universe in this world isn't trying to actually piss you off. 

No way, it's too early for that crap to happen...right? Stopping in your tracks your ears perked towards the sharp sound of screaming, it was clearly out of fear and filled with loud muffled rambles about...gliding off a sloop?

"Oh yeah...that's him alright."

Your neutral yet small tone gave a little sigh as the Vision saw this young man plummet to what was supposed to be his death, you used the wings on your back to guide your body a bit closer towards his loud obnoxious voice that wouldn't quiet for two minutes before a loud splash was heard. 

Without  fail your Vision picked up the ship's sales, it was quite far yet still plausibly close to where his body would be slowly sinking. Making up your mind, you took this opportunity to glide down towards the ship spreading out your wings using the wind's current as a guide.

With a few inches more you could definitely see the ship in its entirety with your own eyes, your black pupils took their time examining the ship's appearance. It honestly looks more grand in person. 

Seeing that they were already in pursuit to fish out the loud obnoxious man who fell ungracefully into the sea, you didn't notice something firing straight at you. You felt it. First it was a sting then came the horrifying burning sensation from the shot, your head quickly turned towards the left wing to see a large burn mark, it took everything in your body not to scream.

Endure it, endure it, endure it!

Another shot came into pursuit, this time it caught your attention and with a swift movement of your hands the Golden Vision was gone and a yellow semi-circle shield blocked what looked like a fireball. You only knew one person on that ship with an elemental power and knowing her she'll keep firing until that captain or yourself say anything. 

Creating a full dome of the shield, your eyes narrowed unto the glowing eyes of the red streaked woman forming an irk mark on your forehead. you took the chance and spoke quite loudly to the crew down below.

"HEY, YOU COULD HAVE KILLED ME WITH THAT!!"

Your voice somehow made it across to the ship but unfortunately it only received muffled sounds of your words. Your wings still stinged you telling your brain to let it rest for awhile, warning signals went off in your mind and you knew you couldn't stay afloat any longer.

Damit, I should have learned that levitating spell from her!

Cursing yourself under your breath you still ascended down to at least make a bit of progress towards the ancered vehicle dodging any fire bullets this hard headed girl could throw at you making this whole expedition more difficult than it's supposed to be. 

Your shining golden brown eyes squinted as your shield seemed to disintegrate into thin air whilst you were a bit distracted seeing the rest of their crew successfully drag the Drown on board having not a fireball but a cannonball charging straight into the other side of your wing knocking you down.

You weren't able to get yourself away from the salty water, trying your best to not let yourself unconscious because of the excess pain rush through your body letting a painful scream escape your lips before your body pluments into the calm sea, letting you get accustomed to its coldness your mind succumbed to the darkness that slowly wrapped around you.

Ugh, I hate this crap already...
