"AGHH!!!" Anzhel put his hands on his ears, this scream was directly coming out from Hades, or that is how he felt right now.
It was hundred times worse than Siren's scream, didn't make shockwaves but just the sound was enough for him.
*Drip* *Drip* *Drip*
Sounds of blood dripping down on the deck.
"This is..." Hector was standing there with his hands swearing at each other, he was looking out into the sea with a serious face, he had complete calmness in his eyes like this scream didn't affect him at all.
As they went a little bit away from the island... the scream stopped.
"Agh..." Anzhel was on the ground, his hands on his ears, this was the most painful thing he ever experienced.
"Sigh... Let me..." Hector put his hands on his ears and used Neus to fix it.
He didn't heal it, just made the bleeding stop.
"Can you hear me?" He asked Anzhel.
"Y...es.... what was that?" Anzhel got lucky and didn't become deaf because of this.
"It's the Sorceress... but you do not need to know that now, go rest and sleep, we are going to Lotus Island, i believe, they are going to wake up when we get there." Hector wanted to warn Anzhel but he could see how tired he was.
Anzhel didn't stand for the occasion and nodded, he went into the cabin.
Outside, Hector was standing looking out into the seas, he looked in one direction.
Hector took out something from his clothes, it was a surprising glass necklace.
In that necklace could be seen something carved in metal. it was a land...
"Hah... i am coming.." Hector said this and pulled the necklace back, he also went into the cabin to rest.
--
Time went on and the day came.
"Wake up Anzhel... we are here..." Hector was looking out from the deck as he saw an island shaped very similar to a lotus appear.
He could see countless Sakura trees from here as well, the island looked mixed between Sakura trees and Oak trees, countless waterfalls that could be seen even from here as well as enormous hills behind.
"Anzhel? i think you are getting old Hector." Hector heard a voice from behind and he looked back...
"You.... Welcome back to this world... Achilles..." Hector smiled peacefully and little tears were coming down from his eyes.
"Come on Captain, crying for a behemoth like you?" Achilles stood there his hair completely disheveled, he looked like he woke up from a very noisy sleep.
"Yes..." Hector wiped his tears and looked over.
"Hm? Lotus Island? what are we doing here? and how did we escape from the Island Of Sirens? And what happened to us?" Achilles bombarded Hector with countless questions.
"Calm down now, take, drink this water, and sit down, i am going to tell you." Hector gave Achilles wooden cup of water and they sat down on the deck.
Achilles looked around, his eyes still hazy from the sleep, he poured water in his hand and wiped it on his face.
"Phew... that was refreshing, tell me now." He asked Hector.
Hector nodded and told him everything...
--
30 Minutes Later.
"So... you are telling me... we escaped the island and you almost broke the ship??? THIS SHIP???!!" Achilles'es face was twitching... he looked at Hector that was scratching his head.
"Come on, did you only hear that part of the story? I saved all of us." Hector sighed.
"WHAT ARE YOU ON CAPTAIN!!! DO YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THIS SHIP WAS DESTROYED???!!!" Achilles wanted to point at Hector more but they heard a creak from the door.
"Ugh... my head hurts." Jason came out scratching his head.
"Jason!!!" Both of them exclaimed and went to Jason.
"Huh? two of you... good morning?" Jason looked up and saw it was a day, and they were on the ship... not his ship...
"Can you please... tell me what is going on?" He asked.
Hector and Achilles looked at eachother and sighed.
--
30 Minutes Later.
"So... that is what happened..." Jason pulled back and scratched his chin, he digested this information, last thing he remembered was Anzhel carrying him.
"OH!!! what happened to my Crew?" He stood up like he remembered something.
"Calm down, they are alright, they are going to wake up soon." Hector looked at the cabin and said this.
He could see their bodies healing already, it would not be long before they woke up.
"Oh thank the Heavens." Jason sighed and sat down.
As they approached the island, more and more of his crewmates woke up.
"CAPTAIN!!!" Ivan and Boris went rushing towards Jason.
"You two..." Jason hugged them like he was hugging his best friends.
"Sigh... you guys..." Dimas and Miloslav as well as Laszlo smiled, they were also emotional, it was hard thing to lose all hope and then regain it in such a fast manner.
Everyone had a time of their lives just looking out in the ocean freely, they thought they would never see this scene again.
"Alright everyone, gather up." Hector said this.
Everyone nodded and went close to eachother.
"We are now at the Lotus Island, this island is very weird, everyone here is pretty much a good person so they are not going to pose any threat to us, but remember something... DO NOT EAT ANYTHING!!! ANYTHING!!!" He said this yelling.
Everyone looked at eachother confused.
"Why?" Miloslav asked, he liked to a lot of things, especially everything tropical, it was mysterious taste he liked in his fruit.
"Just because, its complicated." Hector thought about it and responded.
Achilles sighed and said "You are so cryptic Captain, listen... this island is very weird because most of the people here don't remember their lives before they came to this island." Achilles said this.
"Their memories just cut off one moment and the only thing they remember is stepping on this island, and for some reason, they just couldn't leave, some mysterious force attracts them to this island and they just stayed here and created a village, nobody know why this happens or how this happens, only thing we know that few things here have some force of attraction that you should never touch, even if its simple flower or a leaf, you should never pick up, do you guys understand now?" Achilles explained.
Everyone nodded their heads.
"Good, now we are going to simply pick up some resources, you don't need to do anything, i will pick safe resources here, if you don't have to, don't even talk to any villagers here... oh by the way, please wash up, you guys smell like pigs," Hector said this.
Jason smelled his clothes and he smelled what Hector was talking about.
After a few minutes...
They went to the Lotus Island.
