"Drinking water will keep one alive"

35|REUNITED BUT SINKING

The ocean can become cruel, and it can kill and slaughter and take the lives of those that do not deserve to have their lives taken, and yet it is still a force for good. All that went through Isolde's mind when she goes towards the sinking ship is how she will make Thomas pay for this. He controls the waves, and he controls what ship sinks and what does not. The one ship that she wants floating, is sinking it can only be because of him. And he will get it once she has saved her sister and everyone on board that ship.

Putting her anger aside she forces the waves to take her faster towards the ship, though cursing at Thomas all the way. Making it under the ship she looks at what has been done, and she cannot see why the ship is sinking. There are no holes and no rocks high enough to sink it. It is not water that is taking it down, but something else. Something that she cannot see. Isolde travels up to the surface, holding back the tears that are doing all they can do to fall, though her stubbornness prevents that from happening.

Breaking the surface she looks around the ship that is going down. People are throwing all that they can out from the ship to lighten the load. Her eyes can see people that she saw around the castle when she was young, servants as well as the Royal Navy. Rushing Isolde goes towards the ship. The water lifts her up towards the deck. As soon as she has walked on there, everyone literally drops everything and stares at her as if she is the living dead, and perhaps in a way it can be understood how one can see her like that.

"Yes, it is I, Princess Isolde. I have come to rescue you all, and I suggest not throwing things into the ocean" She speaks as if sh had been there the whole time and walks around the deck. Looking for one person, but tries to be subtle about it. Her gown as well as her body are dry as if she had not been in the ocean. As if she had been boarding the ship the entire time. Still, no one moves, none even blinks as she moves around. Rolling her eyes, Isolde turns to face them.

"Would it be preferable if you would bow before me. Though, I do not believe we have the time. This ship needs to reach the nearest dock as soon as possible" She speaks to them with annoyance coating her voice. Even when she has spoken to them, no one says a word and no one moves still. Ignoring them she finds a door that leads to the chambers that are meant for Elizabeth, and she finds her older sister sitting on a bed. "I order to not be disturbed" Her sister says, having not noticed that it was Isolde who walk inside.

"When have I ever listened to your orders?" Isolde asks her sister who freezes. Slowly shifting on the bed, Elizabeth turns to face her younger sister who stands there like she belongs. "I-Isolde? Is this really you?" She asks, her lips part as she cannot even fathom to see her sister there. Isolde only rolls her eyes. "If I had thought that you would not recognize me then I would have sent someone else" She answers. Though, the girl may not say it out loud, but she would very much like to hug her older sister.
