The road for magic

Sea ohoi!

Chapter.4

*"(Hope's POV)"*

"HEY YOU KIDS WHERE YA COME FROM" a raspy voice yelled out. I assume that must be the owner of the fishing boat.

I quickly turned around trying to stand between the fisherman and my friends, just incase the sailor decided to attack. I don't want him to hurt them. But as I got a good look at him I realized I've seen him before. It's the same guy who pushed Luca back in Whales doom. Same shabby chubby, and definitely stinky, old man.

"Well are ya gonna explain your selfs?" the fisherman asked in anger and started to come closer. I took a look behind my back and noticed Luca trying to hide more behind me while basically hugging Ruzzel to the point the poor cat is choking. I understand he's just a kid but come on. He stood face to face with a shadow creature, but he's afraid of some stinky fisherman.

"What ya standing there for like headless chickens?!" I suddenly snapped out of my thoughts hearing the fisherman yell again.

Might as well give him an answer before that fisherman dose something stupid "Okay no need to yell so the whole ocean hears you. Listen, I have a proposition. You help me and my friends to the location Stonesrark island an-" before I could finish my sentence I was rudely interrupted by none other than the stinky fisherman himself. "And what, your gonna give me a little slap on the cheek, I gotten enough of those by dating woman's prettier than you."

I heard a sudden gasp from behind, Luca was holding a hand over his mouth, clearly more terrified of me now more then the fisherman. And he had a reason to, because I never felt this more anger since Ruzzel stole my pancakes that one morning. I hesitate then because Ruzzel Is my friend, but this guy has no such luck. This stinky fisherman has gotten more on my nerve in 1 minutes than Luca has in the spam of two days.

I quickly took my sword out from behind my back and pointed it towards the fisherman. If looks could kill, the look I was giving the fisherman would have putt him straight to the grave. He of course took some steps back with the fear all over his face. Smartest thing he done so far.

"Okay buddy, you got on my nerves, I tried to be nice and civilized but you give me no other choice." I said trying to keep my cool so I don't take away the only one who knows how to drive this damn boat were standing in. "Now, walk over to the controls and set sail to the Stonestark island or I will not hesitate you stinky fish of a fisherman."

"Okay okay, chill. No need to get violent here, and if you forgot there are kids onboard." He said, the last bit a little more quieter. But eventually he made his way to the steer wheel and turned the boat heading to the island.

After 10 minutes we were pretty much far out in the sea, far away from Whales doom but not near enough Stonestark to see it. All we could see however was sea, ocean, and more sea and ocean.

Me and Luca together with Ruzzel was standing on the deck looking outward for any sign of land. The fisherman was steering the boat in the back.

"So, why you two kids, and some sort of cat, wanna visit the Stonestark, you know there are evil shadows locked in there right?" The fisherman finely broke the silence, to my dismay. I of course didn't say anything and just ignored him, but apparently someone didn't get the memo. "Oh we are going there to check if more shadows cam-" Luca tried to finish his sentence but before he could I luckily put my hand on his face and came up with a lie "What my trusted companion tried to say was, we are...inspectors!" Yeah, could have fooled me, LIKE HIS GONNA BUY THAT.
