Their Elemental Curse: Book 1

Chapter 31

*Shimizu Hada's POV:

"What took you guys so long?" Kimberly asked, approaching Gaia, Robin and Beval.

"Sorry, we spent too much time searching for a good sailboat" Robin apologized as she rubbed the back of her head. She looked down at the bags and book bags that Danny was loading into the boat. "I'm guessing you've already gotten our stuff."

"Yes, you took so long we had no choice but to get your things" Kimberly replied, crossing her arms.

I looked at Gaia and Beval. Beval had his head down, not wanting to make eye contact with anyone, and Gaia's eyes were pink, as if she was crying.

"Did something happen?" I asked, a little concerned.

"No! Nothing happened! Let's just go and sail off before someone finds us here," Beval quickly answered as he tossed some of the things into the large navy blue and white sailboat.

"Oh, so now you wanna rush?!" Kimberly scowled at Beval, placing her hands on her hips.

"Hush" Beval responded in annoyance, not making eye contact.

Suddenly, a loud rumble was heard above the night sky.

"It's starting to thunder, we have to leave now" Danny said as he placed the last items into the boat. "Ladies first."

Robin thanked him and jumped into the boat first, followed by Gaia, Katie and Kimberly.

The boat was sort of big, so it didn't wobble as they got on.

"Alright, boys, you next" Danny insisted.

After we hopped on the boat. Danny untied the rope from around the wooden post before jumping in before the boat was able to drift off.

"Is there anything you need help with?" I asked him.

"Yes, make sure all the bags are taken down the stairs and place the items into the cabinets. Place the foods and waters together but place the medicine, weapons and other equipment separate" Danny ordered as he fixed the mainsail and the headsail, trying to make it adjust to the harsh wind.

I nodded and me and the others got to work.

"So, why did we bring weapons again?" Mohammed asked Danny as he picked up a book-bag full of equipment.

"Because you, me and Katie aren't able to protect ourselves. Our powers aren't like Shimizu's or his friend's. We need weapons, they don't. Don't get me wrong, their powers aren't better than your's, it's just that they're able to protect themselves without a weapon. Got it?"

"Sure, I guess" Mohammed shrugged as he made his way towards the downstairs of the sailboat.

"Oh wait, let me turn the lights on first, wouldn't want anyone to fall" Katie said as she ran down the steps pass Mohammed.

"Thanks Katie," I smiled.

"No problem, anything for you" she smiled back at me as she twirled her hair.

"Anything for us you mean?!" Mohammed pouted at Katie, trying to correct her.

"Guys, you're blocking the way, my back is aching and I'm trying to get this over with" Kimberly grumbled. Robin, Beval and Gaia were waiting for us to move also.

All three of us got out of the way.

After I picked up a heavy black plastic bag, I made my way downstairs. The downstairs looked like a living room. The floor was carpet, it had a door that lead to a bathroom and another door that was a closet. The walls were white and some pieces of it were peeling. There were cabinets around the room and a couch to my left. The place even had AC.
