For a year, the scrappy picklock Clikk has flown aboard The Wastrel disguised as a man. When her captain kidnaps a girl named Molly, Clikk is furious to learn that he plans to sell her as a bride to a despotic emperor. 

Molly has a secret that could be the catalyst of a revolutionary war, but the captain can't wait to be rid of her. Girls are bad luck on airships, and this one suffers a curse that makes her unable to stop crying. Clikk schemes to help Molly escape, but to do so, she must inspire a mutiny, stop an imperial wedding at sky and sneak the girl onto a hijacked ship, all while enduring the child's intolerable crying curse.

A sky pirate's last flight by TrevorStephanson

Nathaniel has been a pirate for half his life, sailing the clouds on airships powered by steam and magic. He has grown tired of the danger and hardship and wants to start a new life free of his past, perhaps with a woman by his side. This is a rewrite of my earlier short story "A pirate's last flight." I decided to rewrite it for a couple reasons. First to refine it and polish it a bit more. Second, and more importantly, to put it in the low fantasy/steampunk inspired world I'm currently writing other stories in.

Mercy Larkin has lived a lifetime in someone else's world. Taken from her people, raised in indentured servitude, and finding her footing in Volante's navy, having the opportunity to change the course of her life is strange and terrifying. But she has chosen to return to the people who forswore her, and reconcile with the reason she chose her surname Larkin. Vincent Locklear has never managed to belong to the people he lives alongside. A child of the Monastery; a coven of secretive custodians of old science, he was cast out years ago to make his own way. Despite being an outsider and forced to keep his childhood a secret, he rose to become a ship captain, only to be cast out again.

Thistle in the Sky | #NONC2022 | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest.

The Pirate Hunter's Game (Finished) by RCDavis_Writes

Note: This story is finished and is terrible. The Pirate Hunter's Game Captain Jessip Sharp is a disgruntled merchant who has lost fortunes to air pirates countless times. The Governments of the floating cities scattered across the thirteen skies do nothing but make it hard for an honest man to make an honest living. The Good Captain takes to the skies once more. This time he is taking matters into his own hands. To hunt down and destroy the pirates that have for so long caused him grief. Even if, by the Government's definition, that makes him a pirate as well. Will Captain Jessip Sharp rid the skies of pirates, or will he soon discover that maybe the pirates aren't so different from himself. My name is Demon. And I hope you enjoy my steam powered, post apocalyptic story of airships, flying cites, and crazy redhead pirates.
