Off To The Seas We Go! [DISCONTINUED]

•12•

It had been a day since Vena had shared her backstory and it had changed the curiosity embedded in Taurus's mind. If her grandfather was out there, stranded on an island and slowly loosing sanity, then Taurus couldn't care less. That man had made her mother's life hell, he didn't need the saving.

But it wasn't right of her to not help out the stranded innocent crew of Auctrix. They had been brainwashed afterall. They were torn away From their loved ones under the illusion of doing something worth getting noted down in history.

"I say, we should do something for the crew." Libra voiced what Taurus had been pondering on. The two were in the cafeteria at their high school. Since it was a passing period for both of them, the two had decided to meet up.

"No shit Sherlock." Aquarius chimed in. Of course,  nothing that happens in Libra as life can go unheard by him. They've been best friends since practically forever. And right now, he was skipping class.

"What exactly?" Scorpio questioned. You might've wondered, how the hell does he know? Well, you could guess that Taurus blackmailed him into getting him voyage records from Mirac. It was a real hasale, so as repayment and his constant nagging, Taurus told him all, after checking up with Libra, of course. He would've dug her grave if she did otherwise.

"I dunno." Taurus answered. An uncomfortable silence fell upon the four.

"What about spreading news about this?" Scorpio suggested. Aquarius clicked his tongue, "Evanscere is a myth for many people. They'll question our sanity. I mean, you and me had a hard time believing it." He got a hum from Scorpio as answer.

"Who else has had their ancestors on that crew?" Libra asked and Scorpio withdrew a sheet from the binder in his bag. He pulled on his reading glasses and scanned the sheet. In case you're wondering, yes, this boy is far sighted.

"We have Lucas Abernathy as captain and Agnar Reynolds as co-captain."

He moved further down, "Then, we've got Caleb Oretsev as medic, Vanessa Frost as cook. Rest of them are cabin crew, researchers and explorers."

Aquarius snatched the sheet From him and quickly read out, "Dr. Mia Dolova and Jeremy Fitz both as Researchers. Next are cabin crew, which are Samuel Rior and Cole Zahra. And lastly, explorer Rebecca Ramirez. "

Scorpio frowned at him and folded his arms after nearly putting his glasses away.

"Wait wait wait, Ramirez? Isn't the new kid from your class Ramirez from Mirac?" Libra asked, and Aquarius nodded, "That's right, Capricorn Ramirez. And he's from Mirac, from his paternal side. Could it be possible?"

"We never know until we find out!"

Libra's next class was History so he had rushed away. He was so engrossed In all that old stuff.

Fortunately for Taurus, it was a free period, Leslie Schmith, her chemistry teacher, hadn't turned up today. Nor had Sienna Hunter, which also gave the 2nd years a free period. 

Taurus's last encounter with Capricorn wasn't exactly nice. By the end of it, Capricorn was all raged up and stormed away. She wasn't sure if he'd even hear her out. 

Capricorn came out of the Math classroom, chatting with a girl with some badass Brunette and blonde wolf cut hair. She seemed new to Taurus. Taurus put up a tight smile with Scorpio and Aquarius in tow and walked towards them.
