Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: the journey begins

"The ship was sailing along the misty sea, the weather was really cold and dry. The only person in charge of the ship was Skits, while everyone else was sleeping; it was nighttime. Out of complete surprise, a huge sea monster appeared!

'Woahhh!' Skits exclaimed in excitement. But that huge beast was heading for the ship! The monster quaked the whole ship. Zota woke up. 'What's going on there—' Suddenly, the creature tried to claw Zota! Due to his quick reflexes, he dodged just in the nick of time.

'Why is there a goddamn sea beast trying to destroy our ship!' Zota screamed in dismay.

Zota jumped in the air and kicked the sea beast with his bare legs. That beast was knocked out for just a slight moment. In that time, Skits summoned a lightning bolt from the sky and roasted the sea beast. Everything calmed a little.

'Phew, thanks, Skits!' Zota spoke in gratitude.

'No biggie. Anyone up for sea beast meat? I'm hungry,' Skits said, feeling his hunger.

Suddenly, the sea monster awakened again! Skits wasn't paying attention, and the creature tried to push its claw into Skits' chest. Just before it happened, Ashura woke up and followed with a slash to the sea monster's throat. 'Leopard hurricane!' Ashura shouted.

The head of the beast crashed down on that tiny dinghy of a ship.

'Thanks, Ashura,' Skits said in relief. 'That was a close one.'

'No problem. So, now how do we cook this meal?' Ashura said in confusion.

The crew set up a bonfire.

'Whew, I am exhausted. Thank God there is enough for the three of us. Wow, this is the stuff,' Skits muttered while eating.

The sun rose in its beauty.

'Hey guys! I see a very big island with lots of desert!' Skits said, alarming the others.
