Although it seems like a pretty cool thing to have, it is not safe. Not in this w...
I stood up and looked around, making a full 360-degree turn but just like before, there was nothing at sight.
'Maybe it's nothing' I thought to myself while looking at Opal whose gaze was still fixed on the fog. Just when I was about to continue steering the ship, something explosive hit the ship, making it shake violently. Just then, Dylan and Lucas ran out from the room, confused and frightened.
"What's going on?!" asked Dylan from the quarterdeck. Before I could even answer, another bomb hit the ship, destroying part of the ship in the process.
"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!" I yelled before turning the steering wheel to escape whoever is attacking our ship.
Our ship just about made a right turn when out of nowhere, bandits jumped onto the ship from every side and had us surrounded. They were all huge and ugly looking with scars all over their face and body.
"Who's the captain of this ship?" asked the bandit that was standing right in front of me.
"What's your business here?" asked Dylan who was surrounded by the other bandits, with Lucas by his side.
"You're passing on our territory, so we ask the questions around here. Now, I'm gonna ask you one more time.......who's the captain?" he asked, this time with his sword pointing right at me. I was starting to get really pissed off, so I said the smartest thing that popped into my head.
"How do you know you're not looking at her?" I asked with a smirk on my face.
"Do you really expect us to think that the captain of a ship is a little girl. Stop tryna be funny, kid," spoke another bandit who was standing at the quarterdeck. Right before I could turn around to look at him, another group of bandits jumped through the fog and onto the ship, so basically, our ship was now completely crowded with murderous bandits.
'They're too many of them.' I thought in my head, trying to figure out a plan but it was too late because Lucas just had to open his mouth.
"Do you really think we're afraid of you guys?" he asked, instantly making Dylan facepalm himself. All the bandits laughed out loud before taking out swords and daggers with evil grins on their faces. Without even thinking twice, I transformed into my Pisces Constellation, one of the most suitable signs to use when I'm surrounded by water.

My transformation this time came with a magical staff that helps me to control the water. Right after I transformed, bandits attacked me from every side. I spun my staff in the air before hitting the end of the staff hard on the ground, creating a huge wave that sent the bandits flying. I immediately ran down to the quarterdeck where I saw both Dylan and Lucas fighting a larger amount of bandits. Lucas had already summoned a water spirit who resembled a merman with blue hair and a teal colored tail, holding a trident in his right hand. Out of nowhere, a bandit knocked me to the ground just when I was walking down the stairs to the quarterdeck. I ended up rolling down the stairs and hitting my head on the ground but right when I wanted to get up, he attacked me with a sword. I blocked the attack with my staff and kicked him right in the stomach, making him fall on the floor in pain. Before I could reach my two cousin brothers, a few bandits blocked my way with huge evil grins on their face. I closed my eyes and focused on the power of the ocean that was all around me. While holding the glowing staff in front of me with both of my hands, I concentrated on the sound of the waves, blocking the other noises that I could hear. Right after I opened my eyes, the waves from the ocean came crashing onto the ship, sweeping away the bandits that were once surrounding me. I controlled another tidal wave and sent a huge hit at two bandits who were about to hurt Opal before running towards Dylan and Lucas.
"There are too many of them," spoke Dylan, right after striking fear into the heart of a bandit who almost stabbed him.
"Indeed. They might be mortal men, but each of them has the strength of a giant," spoke Ryuku, Lucas's spirit.
"And it seems like their numbers are increasing. We're outnumbered," continued Dylan.
"What do you suggest we do?" Lucas asked while striking a bandit with a sword he had gotten from Ryuku.
Just then, five of those bandits came running towards me in full speed before striking at me with their sword. Fortunately, I was able to defend myself in time by sending a huge wave and knocking them down in the process. All five of us, including Opal and Ryuku, stood in a circle with our backs facing each other while the bandits kept moving closer to us, ready to finish us off. I was just about to launch an attack when I saw a shadow in the corner of my eyes. So, I turned around to get a better look at it but the more I tried to focus on it, the more I realized that the shadow resembled a man with his eyes covered by a hood. I got pretty freaked out, especially when a person literally came out of the darkness. He was wearing a black hoodie over a black t-shirt and some black skinny jeans with some black shoes to go with his outfit. He was also carrying a sword in both of his hands. Everyone turned around to look at him after he came out from the shadows and for some reason, the bandits were afraid of him. Right then, a shadow covered the entire ship but it wasn't what we expected because when we looked up, we saw a huge wave hovering the ship and right on top of the wave, stood a girl wearing a dark blue hoodie over a white t-shirt paired with some black leggings and black sneakers. She jumped onto the ship and with a wave of her hands, the wave that was once hovering over us, crashed onto the ship, washing away some of the bandits in the process. Before the other bandits could run away, the shadow guy quickly attacked each and every one of them. After a few minutes, we were the only one left.
"Who are you?" I asked, trying to sound braver than I actually was. The two mysterious figures looked at each other before turning back to look at us. They then took off their hood to reveal a guy with light blonde hair and a brunette who were both wearing a pair of glasses.
"Daphne?" Lucas asked with tears in his eyes.
"Angelo," Dylan whispered, both shocked and happy at the same time.
