Chapter 405 Oh Hell No!!! Jump!!!
Chapter 405 Oh Hell No!!! Jump!!!
[SICARIO]
Drew was angry at how things had turned out for him and his crew. They had sailed the waters for years and years, and just one encounter with the cursed child of the realm, and here they were.
He had known at the time that there would be great risks when he accepted the damned mission but he hadn't expected things to get this complicated. What was supposed to be a one-way voyage turned out to be the craziest encounter they had ever had.
Now barely days after they had gotten the people they were meant to pick at the docks, they were in a ship that was docked in land with nothing but the mess that they had come with from the waters.
It was annoying as hell and infuriating as fuck because this was not fair. The mission was never supposed to be this complicated. But a part of him should have at least been ready for the madness that came with the Sicario girl.
He had downplayed everything that had happened but now there was nothing left to downplay. So begrudgingly, Drew began to clean up his ship. It was the only apology he could manage after what he had put Rio and the other guys through.
It wasn't fair but since when had life cared about what was good and bad for anything other than the intended subjects, right?
"Do this Drew. Do that Drew. Sail here, Drew. Sail there, Drew, fuuckk!!" Captain Drew cursed out as he punched the nearest wall of the ship. He was sick of everything that was happening and he hated how things had gotten for them.
Maybe he should have just refused the order when Malika had come and made the proposal.
But then again, it was a really good proposal for a mere wolf that he couldn't have left, because if he didn't take it, he was sure someone else would have taken up the offer. Funny how that turned out for him.
"Hey Cap, are you okay?" Rio, one of the crew members asked as he rushed back into the ship to see what it was that had gotten his captain so frustrated.
But the bottom line of this madness was whether the alpha who had welcomed them so nicely was the one to make things this complicated with a captain known to be the happiest of them all.
"As long as everyone's okay, nothing else matters. Tell them to get off the ship and go mingle. They are safe here and none of them will be hurt. And tell them I'm sorry I'm a mess right now," Drew said dismissively to Riio who stared at him in disbelief.
In all the years on the water that they had known each other, Rio had never met someone as brave and strong as Drew. He had never imagined that someone would face things so easily like that and with smiles.
Drew had always been their hope and the only reason they were sure that someday they would be able to make it home to their families in the middle of the war. They had hope because they trusted him, and now he was down, which was unusual.
"Alright then. I'll just ask her then. Maybe she can tell me why my captain is defeated for the first time in forever. Maybe she can give me the explanation that you don't want to and maybe she can tell us what to do to make it all better for you," Rio growled as he left.
Perhaps the happy smiles really did hide the saddest memories, huh?
However, on his way out of the ship, he stumbled upon glass, something that was never there on their sip. The captain always hated having glass on board because it would make things a little complicated during clean-ups and in case of accidents.
With wood, it was always easy because there wasn't a high mortality risk when they were out there at sea. And the only glass they had on board was meant for the windows, and even that was accessed by the captain alone.
"Hey, cap... what's with the glass shards over here? I don't see no broken windows?" Rio asked confusedly.
"Glass? That's impossible... Unless... Fuck! Get everyone off the ship, now!!!!" Drew said suddenly as he rushed out.
"Everyone, jump!!! Jump off the damn ship, jump!!!" Drew shouted right as the ship exploded.
