Next day
Everyone was out on the deck of the spacious almost cruise ship like boat, either relaxing and having a tan or watching the wildlife.
Gema was more especially focused on the latter, which proved to fruitless as she could find no blue thunder crocodile anywhere nor could she sense one.
Oh for Black's sake why is this going to be more difficult then it should?! Please not this end up in me having to fight them, Makelil would ground me for life if I did.
Gema scoffed as she finally broke out of her thoughts. Glancing over at Shin and Satel, a scowl formed from her face but she quickly looked the other way.
She spotted Bael walking out of the captains office and was heading towards Shin and Satel.
Maybe I could use him. He must have some crazy ability considering that Ezra chose to seal him up.
A sickening grin formed on Gema's face as she strode over to Bael, stopping him dead in his tracks.
"Well hello there, I don't think we've properly introduced ourselves. My name is Gema, nice to meet you," she said in a soft voice with a soft smile.
Gema extended out her hand and Bael froze for a second before placing it on his own hand. He bowed and kissed her hand before slightly tilting his head up.
" Bael, and it is truly a pleasure to meet someone as gorgeous as you," he responded.
Gema's face turned red as she held back a wide smile, "Quite the gentle man. You don't mind entertaining this single lady do you?" she asked.
She locked eyes with Bael and notices a feint flame in his eyes.
Well this is going along quite well.
"Well of course," Bael responded with a warm smile.
Gema stood next to Bael. She slipped her arm under his, locking their fingers together as they walked over to the edge of the deck.
**********
Over on the other side off the deck Shin found himself staring at Satel as she lay on her lawn.
He scrolled his eyes across her body memorizing all her curves, silky smooth skin, flowing forest green hair. By all measure, she was drop dead gorgeous and Shin couldn't keep his eyes off her.
"Hello, Hello, SHIN!!."
Shin snapped back to reality and glanced up at Satel's slight red face. He opened his mouth but no word came out and he could see Satel beginning to pout.
"I-I-I should check up on Bael, yeah Bael, okay don't have too much fun without me," Shin blurted out as he shot up to his feet.
He glanced over at Bael's direction and his shoulders slumped. There, across from them Bael and Gema were hand in hand laughing together.
" Seems that Bael is busy. So get back over here and start explaining yourself," Satel said in a sweet venom laced voice.
Shin slowly glanced over his shoulder and saw her pat his chair with a smile on her face that barely managed to hide her rage.
Master, may the gods strike you down were you stand.
Shin mustered an awkward smile as he sat back on his chair facing towards Satel. Letting out one nervous sigh he grabbed the collar of his Linen shirt.
"Funny thing is..."
