Warning: Cursing, Violence, mentions of a panic attack
Some dragons are said to have the ability to breathe fire or ice, while others are said to have poisonous venom.
Deep within the Eastern Ocean, Cai sat in a currently sinking airship with the others, trying very hard not to break out into a panic attack at the fact that they were in a currently sinking ship in water that would potentially kill them.
Mei pat xier back, trying to comfort the corvid who was sitting stock still in the flooding cabin, Spider Queen also joining in with her own sympathies, not liking their current predicament either, looking over to Pigsy and Tang, "Is it always like this in your group?"
"Somewhat, though I think the current added party member that isn't helping is giving us some extra bad luck!" The chef angrily looked over towards a lounging Wukong, who seemed unaffected by their current predicament.
Unfortunately, the ship took that sentence as it's cue to start letting the windows crack and for more water to flood though, making the poor raven stiffen further, xier breathing getting a bit labored.
"Uh, Sandy, Cai's not looking too hot over here, what do I do?" Mei began to panic herself, trying to keep the hybrid from closing their wings around them, to allow her to still see the poor panicking adult.
"Make sure to do the exercises I told you, the five senses is a good way to start, remember to use short and simple sentences with them, you don't want to overwhelm him and make it worse," Mo hopped onto the flying monster's shoulder and used his own training to try and help, and Spider Queen held onto a worried Rumble and Savage.
"Wow, this fear of hers is really bad," SQ frowned, scratching behind the monkey twins' ears for comfort.
"Yeah, they say it's half instinctual and half their own fear," The dragon girl explained, going back to the third sense, which was hearing and three things that the hybrid could hear.
"Monkey King, you've gotta' do something, quick!" MK cried out to his mentor, who'd continued lounging in the pool of water they were all in.
"What? A little water never hurt anyone--oh wait, mortality," Wincing as he realized that everyone else beyond himself and Spider Queen--who wasn't invincible and would also drown--wasn't immortal, the ginger king cut himself off.
"NOT HELPING!!" Everyone except Sandy and Cai shouted.
Suddenly, the alarms started blaring overhead, as a sound similar to that of a whale was heard outside, Mei immediately making sure the her elder sibling was alright as she halfway addressed Wukong, "Uh, Monkey King, what's that?"
"Relax, pretty sure it's just an old friend of mine come to help out~" Looking out the window, they all gulped at the sight of the massive Dragon Turtle that was staring down at them. "Actually, friend miiight be stretching it."
Tossing them all down onto the stone floor of the palace, the Dragon Turtle swam off elsewhere, whilst the group got up and looked around, Mei making sure that Cai was alright before allowing them to walk about.
"Mei, do you realize where we are?" MK gaped in awe, his friend looking up in awe herself now.
"The Dragon Palace of the East Sea," Grabbing both MK and Cai in an excited hold, she shook the pair back and forth with an excited squeal. "We're in the Dragon Palace of the East Sea!~"
"Looks nice," Looking around with a humm, Cai took a few pictures for later, the beauty of the place inspiring them slightly for some later drawings, though currently there was another problem. "Hey Wukong, you said this guy was you friend, not the king you humiliated, tricked and stole from after threatening him for a new weapon and outfit so badly that he needed to call his brothers for help."
