A/N: Alrighty, let's try this. I originally started posting this on FanFiction, but a reviewer suggested putting it here as well. This is a fun story I came up with a few months ago that just keeps building. This is the only A/N until newer chapters (which you're probably happy for) so I won't bore you with any more details. So just sit back and enjoy the ride (read)!
----------------------------
Finn wasn't having a good day.
In retrospect, Fontiane probably wasn't expecting Finn to take her "you can be sorry, or you can be a pirate" statement seriously. Never mind choosing the "sorry" route.
Too bad Finn hadn't realized that about fifteen minutes earlier... before he'd made his decision... out loud... where his father could hear him. And would it have been too much for the Nektons to believe him?
Instead, Ant had dumped Finn outside the Aronnax and closed the Moon Pool, locking Finn outside with the pirates -and family- that he had just said he wanted nothing more to do with.
Hammerhead knew Finn too well to not believe what Finn had said and very loudly announced that Finn was free to go. Well, maybe not "free to go" more like "get out of my sight" and a declaration that Finn was now an enemy to the Dark Orca.
With returning to the Dark Orca too dangerous -not that Finn really wanted to, he'd always wanted to leave, just not like this- and the Nektons having cut communications, Finn didn't have many options. He barely made it between the prop covers and hull of the Aronnax before both subs were speeding off in separate directions.
Finn hunkered down as the Aronnax picked up speed, mind spinning for an idea on what to do next. All he could come up with was to just wait until the Aronnax stopped, then maybe try to swim for land.
Finn glanced at his oxygen gauge. If they'd surface within two hours, that would be great, too.
