Chapter 11 - Chapter XI : MICHEAL - Now We're heading West

meeting two Goddesses in a day, one is out there trying to kill us but at least the other one didn't have that ill feeling onto us - sorta except for Kitty here whose a nuisance on her eyes luckily my charms subdue the Goddess of Love's Hatred towards her, Though I can still feel the butterflies on my stomach, feeling that sooner or later things are gonna get far worst, well I sure hope not.

"What's wrong mike?" Nicholas said "Uhhmm.. no, nothing I'm just thinking of something unimportant" I replied and smiled at him "okay.. hey I think that's our ride" Nicholas pointed on a direction where he sees the boat.

we asked the Goddess for a yacht but what she gave us was something more extravagant - she is the Goddess of beauty so luxury is something that is always on point, before our very eyes is a cruise ship with a name engraved on the side of the ship SS. BELLE, I think that means beauty.

"She's a bit of a show off" Celine said "Heh.. I have no complains, what a beauty" I said.

"Lets go guys we need to go to west fast and this will help us a lot with what I mean by fast" Nicholas said.

we all climb on the ship - the ship is empty so the Goddess forgets to put some cabin crew to compensate with the beauty of this ride but again whose complaining this was so amazing - even though she forgot the crew she didn't forget to pack the ship with food and amenities.

"So any of you knows how to drive this?" I asked "I think Nicholas knows" Celine replied.

"Sure I do but I think Ill just set a path or coordinate I think this ship has auto pilot it should have by the looks of it seems like it has everything, also that auto pilot will surely helps us allot specially for resting our bones a bit - lets go to the control room but before that grab me some snack, I will be spending quite a long time at the Bridge" Nicholas said.

this cruise ship is bigger inside, there is even a ball room, a whole floor full of suite rooms - we can have our individual rooms every night during the ship ride.

but before I got so hooked by how beautiful this ship is I came to see and talk to nicholas.

"Nicholas" I called him and he turns to where I'm "Yes Mike?" he said "Can I come with you" he nodded and I rush to where he is.

I looked at him "I've been wondering if we fail this quest obviously it would be our demise, correct?" he nodded "And if we succeeded, which I preferred the most how will the Goddess of Love helps us?" I added "Honestly Mike, I don't know how the Goddess will help us - obviously she can't touch it but maybe she can help us guard that or hide it" he smiled "but as of now we have to trust our fighting skills on protecting that apple - and as long as we have each others back we can definitely beat them" he added.

I looked at his spear "ahmm, Nicholas I remembered the Goddess we fought called that spear special hmm I saw Celine's Dagger spew some purple violet colored acid that burns really well, and my bow has that fire arrows but I don't see something magical on your spear?" I asked and he laughed "You are as curious as ever well I did promise you that I'll tell you right?" he said.

"This is the To Dory Tis" he said "To dory what?" I asked "To Dory Tis or in English its the Spear of Lethe - wait you do know the rivers of the underworld?right" I look puzzled and then he burst on laughter "I guess you don't know, well Lethe is one of the five rivers on the underworld and The River Lethe is named after the Goddess of Forgetfulness, now do you have any Idea why my weapon is special?" he asked and I nodded "when it strikes it gives amnesia?" I told him and he nodded "Actually to be more precise it makes the opponent forget how to use the senses properly, its like being deaf but not deaf being blind but not blind something like that" Nicholas said.

"So that's why she knows that weapon" I said "Yes, its not everyday that a weapon is forge with a steel from the depths of the underworld and Quenched with the water of lethe itself, thats what made this weapon very powerful" Nicholas said and I nod in agreement.

"Mike I think we need to rest? agree?" Nicholas said "I Guess, will you stay here in this room?" I asked "I guess we need someone to stir, we don't want another titanic incident, correct" Nicholas smiled "Okay so let me just get myself a matress pillow and blanket, I'll be resting here with you" I said "you don't need to do that you know" Nicholas said "But I want to" I insisted "There's no stopping you huh?" he said and I nodded "Ok then" he smiled and I stormed down to get what I needed.

as I'm walking down the deck I bumped in with Celine "Where are you going with that genius?" she said "I'll be putting this to the control center or whatever you called that place with the steering wheel" I said "It's called the bridge genius" Celine said "Yah, Yah whatever but we will be sleeping there" I said "We? you and Nicholas" Celine asked and I nodded "Ok wait here" she added.

"ahmm, why are you carrying those pillows and blankets?" I asked "I'll be sleeping with you guys, Isn't it obvious you really are a genius" she said "Wait why? we have like 10 rooms here why sleep with us in the bridge room?!" I said "We are the only people here! what if there's an emergency and I was sleeping soundly here, how will you fend for yourself genius?? and haven't you watch some horror flicks - first rule of survival never ever split up!" she argued with me and I know I'm not gonna win this against her, but one thing is for sure if I ever got into prison I'll ask her to be my lawyer - I just nod to her since I don't have a choice "you won't argue anymore?" she asked "Will you let me win if I would?" I asked her "No! Of course not" she answered "then I won't" I replied and she smiled - it's the first time she smiled at me Celine's stormy eyes for the first time subsides its so warm her smile her perfectly aligned teeth, damn she is beautiful "What? is there something between my teeth?" she asked "No, Nothing I just remembered something" I replied while swinging my head - Wait she noticed that I was looking at her teeth, I better be cautious when I'm daydreaming in front of her, wait am I daydreaming really, I felt so warm like I'm blushing - I quickly turned around at her so she won't notice.

"ahmm, we better get going" I said "ahmm, sure I thought we will just going to sleep here with this much pep talk" she. laughed at her own joke which is so cute "Ok lets go" I was so tensed "Ahmm ok lead our way genius" she said.

we walked to the bridge silent, full of awkwardness, I haven't said a thing which is very unusual to her but I need my feelings to subside "hey?! genius are you alright?" she asked I just nodded without looking at her "Why aren't you talking? okay I'll let you win for now" she said "No I'm fine I'm just tired I think" I mustered all the courage, I have to answer her "Ahmm, Ok you are getting weirder and weirder you know, Luckily We deal Weird daily" she added and I laughed demurely.

we reached the bridge. "Ahmm, why is Celine here?" Nicholas said "first rule of survival..-" before she can finish it "Never ever split up to increase the chances of survival" I winked at her "yeah thats right, finally genius here caught up" Nicholas holds his hands up "Okay no argument with that rule and since there's only the three of us from the beginning and its getting chilly here alone, maybe its a good idea that you're both here" Nicholas said "And man I know this will be a very long trip" he added and we both nodded.

"you guys better catch some Zzz's so later we can switch roles" Nicholas said.

"I'll be snoozing for a bit" i said and celine nodded.

as I drift by I heard a voice, a voice that is very familiar, it's the Goddess of Starvation Limos "I can't sense them, I can't catch their scents!" she desperately announced.

"Sister we cant sense them as well" the Makhai leader said.

"someone lend them an enchantment magic" Limos said "But there is no perfect enchantment magic I'll devise my own enchantment magic to locate them, you might be safe for now but soon I'll find you!" she said "I know you're watching us Son of Harvest, that peeking of yours confirmed that you are indeed using an enchantment!" she sharply laughed.

everything suddenly turns black and a voice of a woman pierce the darkness and its calling my name.

"Micheal" who is this? another Goddess but who?
