Chilled water soaked my face as I choked on the air, a blurry vision of deep cannons touching the sky. The ship swayed between the rock walls while we floated down the narrow river. Water sickness built inside my stomach, swaying back and forth on the golden ship. The moons shined onto the liquid, mirroring them perfectly in the ripples.
"Wake up, purple beauty," the captain said from his chair of gold.
He hopped off the seat, kicked at a bucket, and sent it flying into one of his minion's heads. I shook my body, trying to loosen the golden ropes around my torso, and looked up at the tall pole. Thomas had his back to mine, tipped over with his head limp.
"Thomas," I whispered through my teeth.
Captain Ardit grabbed my chin, forcing me to look at him. He smiled while a golden insect crawled on his shoulder, chirping with its back legs. He picked up the bug and tossed it in his mouth, crunching down on the hard outer shell.
"Welcome to my ship. I named my grace Charidotella," he said with his mouth full.
I raised a brow, licking my dry lips. "It's lovely. Now, can we leave?"
He laughed, pointing at me while standing straight. "Oh, I like this one."
"She's not that great," the same girl who hung the enchanter said while standing next to his thrown.
She rolled her eyes, playing with a wooden knife. The gold scarf around her head helped tuck back her black hair. The blade tip picked at her teeth while she hummed in annoyance.
Ardit glanced at her with a smirk before slowly turning in a circle to look back at me. "Lady drama," he said with a high-pitched voice. "Untie the two prisoners!" he yelled, snapping his fingers.
Two enormous men cut the surrounding ropes while Thomas fell forward. He coughed until water poured from his mouth before glancing at me and changing his gaze to shock at the sparkling ship. A minion grabbed his arm, forcing him up while the other gripped me.
They forced us to Captain Ardit while he sat on his chair with his boots over the arm in a lazy position. He pointed at the man holding Thomas.
"Do the belch," he said, sitting up straight in amusement.
The man jumped with his hands in the air before he lowered himself to the ground and performed a push-up before jumping up again.
"Okay, you." He gestured to Thomas. "Repeat that until I say stop."
Thomas looked at me in disbelief before Ardit's side woman threw a knife at him and it stuck to the ground before Thomas's feet. He jumped in the air and made the motion, stumbling on the movements.
