Drop [On hold]

"Annavi watched him from the bottom of the stairs. The room they were in was empty, aside from the pile of building supplies on the floor.
Jacque began to trifle through the pile of boards, ropes, nails and tools. She continued to watch him, suddenly feeling very unsafe. It was just the two of them. If it came to it, she wouldn't be able to fight back. Why did her curiosity lead her here?
He apparently didn't find what he was looking for, and went back up the stairs. She trailed behind like a lost dog.
Her thoughts had collected significantly. She felt less cornered, and much less trapped now that they were above deck of the massive boat. What was the boat's purpose, anyway? A question was in order.

He turned around and grinned. "I've always wanted to sail the salty seas, yar-har."

Normally Annavi wouldn't make arrangements to meet strange men in the woods who promised her a trip on a flying boat. Especially not with the danger that lurked at the edge of the woods. With every visit to the Drop and the so-called flying boat, Annavi came closer to the promise of an undesired death; risking the fall from the Drop she had been warned about. But of course, she continued to temp fate, without any care that wasn't associated with the boat. She should have guessed that something would go wrong.
