The dark sea roared and swirled viciously beneath the great ship. Wind and rain violently ripping through the sail and making the ships crew cling to the sides of the vessel."I said come and take us you great beast!!" Captain Jeon yelled. Standing center of the ship with one arm clinging to a large pole holding the whipping sail. The other out stretched to the darkness in front. "Hold strong men!! We will not let this beast take down this ship!" He screamed out. "Sir!!" The crew yelled back. They used all their strength to get back to their positions and pull through the storm. Somehow managing to get through what many other crews could not.
The next morning the ship rocked harshly in the strong waves. Half of the crew sleep and the other half standing strong at their post. Captain Jeon stood strong at the wheel. His shirt removed from one arm and tossed over his shoulder. Exposed cuts and bruises from the night before decorating his right side. He had spent all night moving around the ship helping his men at their post and throwing buckets of water from the ship while being violently thrown around. Perhaps, that's what pulled the crew through. Their captains passion was unmatched and they would give their all to meet him in it.
Captain Jeon turned his head at the sound of heavy footsteps. He saw his best man, Kim Taehyung climb the last step and come into view. " Captain, the waves are strong and steady but the ship is stable. We've removed all of the water from the lower level and patched the hole." He groaned. The Captain patted him heavy on the back. "Good work Kim. I can always count on you to hold the ship down." He said giving him a warm smile. The orange sunlight illuminating
his face as he did. Taehyung froze and cleared his throat. " Any other orders?" He replied. His voice low. Captain Jeon caught on to the tone quickly. He glanced around the ship and after making sure the two men were not being watched he glanced down at his battered arm. "Think you can take care of me?" He replied.Glass bottles fell to the floor as Taehyung pushed the Captain onto his own work table kissing him violently. "Ahh" Jungkook hissed as Taehyung poured an already open bottle of vodka onto the captains cuts. "Cuts have been taken care of any other needs?" Taehyung growled as he ripped his shirt over his head. "Just one." The captain groaned as he rubbed over his crotch with his hand seductively. Taehyung smirked at him eyes glimmering and it was almost enough to kill the Captain. "Now, Kim. Now." He ordered. "Yes, sir" Taehyung replied. Laughing as he dropped to his knees.
"Why are you so invested in this mission, Jeon? I mean the crew went through hell last night. We barely pulled through but you.. you were a machine." Taehyung asked softly as he ran his hand through the captains thick black locks. "Imagine what must be there. The treasures. It has to be the most amazing thing anyone could ever imagine." The Captain replied. His eyes big and glowing with his words. "You're still a kid." Taehyung mocked. "Am not!" The Captain retorted. Making Taehyung laugh harder. Raising an accusing eyebrow. The Captain pulled Taehyung in by the waste making him go quiet. "Could a kid do what I just did to you?" He smirked.
In the land that the the men aboard the ship were from there was a legend of a treasure. A treasure that was unlike any other. It had been placed at the foot of two mountains by the gods themselves. Only to be discovered by the bravest and strongest captain. The trip to retrieve it so treacherous and dangerous that many now believed that only a god himself could ever actually retrieve it. Only one man had made it as far as Captain Jeon and his crew had currently made it. He lost all of his crew and his ship.
He floated back onto the shores of their land. He appeared to be dead at first sight. After some time the man recovered and told the story of his mission. He told the people of the land how the mission was impossible. That they should never attempt it again and that any man that still tried was good as dead. That even if him and his crew made it through the storms and rocky waters that there was something else far worse. The singing.. the siren.
They heard a beautiful voice echoing through the mountains as they moved their ship carefully through the small path of water. They were nearly at the foot of two mountains. They were certain this was the place. They were certain they would complete the mission. They had no idea how they would maneuver the ship back out but they couldn't care at that moment. The would back it out if need be. They were sure they would taste victory but then ...the singing.
The crew stilled at the voice. It completely hypnotized them and as the Captain sat at his desk frantically searching for any notes he may have made in his drunken plans about sirens. He saw it began to happen. His men began to walk right over the side of the ship. Terrified the Captain locked himself inside of his cabin. He coward in a corner and held his hands over his ears as the glass broke and the singing filled the room. The ship began to slam into the large bodies of rock around it and filled with water.
He clung onto the ship as well as he could as it was swallowed by the sea. The rain started to pour like he had never seen before in his life and the sky went black and just before he went under with the last piece of ship he saw her. A beautiful siren her eyes only, emerged from the water. Starring into his soul. Dark and deadly. Her hair stuck to her forehead and blew in the wind. He was mistaken not a siren.. but a goddess. An actual goddess. He was stunned he felt his heart ache. He began to beg for forgiveness to the sky. Beg that the gods have mercy on his soul. That was the last moment he remembered.
"But.. what about the goddess?" Taehyung said. He was careful of his tone. He knew how the captain felt about the topic. The Captain raised his eyes to him. Cutting through him with a look. "She is a witch. Nothing more. and I will kill her before she kills us." He growled liftin up and sitting onto the bed. Taehyung cautiously lifted his hand to place it on the captains shoulder. "But he sai-" The captain cut him off quickly yanking his shoulder away and turning to face him. "Taehyung, are we exclusive lovers now? Are we going to lay here all day and have pillow talk or do you and I both have jobs to do? It was a good fuck but please get back to your post now. " He replied.
Taehyung quietly stood and threw on his clothing. The two of them silent until he left the room slamming the door behind him. The Captain cringed at the loud thud. "Fuck." He cursed as he rubbed his face. He then too got dressed and headed back to his role.
