[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 ti 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 ant to pick at the docks, they were in a ship that was docked in land with nothing but the ss that they had co 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 ca 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 co and made the proposal.
But then again, it was a really good proposal for a re wolf that he couldn't have left, because if he didn't take it, he was sure soone else would have taken up the offer. Funny how that turned out for him.
"Hey Cap, are you okay?" Rio, one of the crew mbers asked as he rushed back into the ship to see what it was that had gotten his captain so frustrated.
A lot was going on with them at the mont, but their captain had to have reached the tip of everything because he couldn't handle the chaos anymore. Maybe it was a good thing for them to leave, but then how the fuck were they supposed to leave?
They were not on water and they were in the most unhinged yet extrely secure land in the realm. All of this just didn't make any sense to the captain and he wanted to fight things, people, anything that he ca across.
And maybe that was what he was doing when he hurled a tray of fish at Rio who missed by an inch, cursing out the captain for sothing even he didn't understand. Perhaps he could figure it out with his crew, right?
"What the fuck man. What happened to you? Is the alpha that much of a bitch to have that effect on you? You do know you can talk to , right?" Rio said as he jumped over the items on the floor.
He could tell the ss was worse in the captain's head, even as he headed toward the frustrated captain who was now slumped on the ship floor, thinking of all the decisions he had made in life that could have brought him to this point.
Rio may not have known much about what was eating up the captain. But he could see enough to determine that the captain wasn't in the right state of mind at the mont. The man had suffered and had gone through a lot of things.
"Are the guys okay?" Drew asked as he lifted his head to look at his friend. He knew this was a lot for them all to handle but there wasn't shit he could do about it. There was nothing at the mont, because even he couldn't explain this shit.
"Yeah, we are okay. Just worried about you… what's the deal with Alpha Elodie? Is she from a past you don't want to rember? Is that why you didn't want us to step out? You gotta tell sothing man.
"They seem like nice people, they didn't shoot at us and they are even waving at us. I know that doesn't make them saints and shit, given the land we are in, but the benefit of the doubt is bound to rise from the guys, you know that, yeah?" Rio said as he looked at Drew.
Rio wasn't sure if the captain needed a pat on the back for this, or if the captain needed to be left alone. There was nothing he could think of that could make the situation any better but then the captain was their pillar.
Seeing him that defeated was disheartening, especially since they were in a foreign land and they couldn't step out without their captain's approval.
Sure, they could press on and Drew could give them the go-ahead, but there was sothing else in the captain's eyes. Sothing sorrowful and the king do shit that couldn't be fixed even with therapy.
But the bottom line of this madness was whether the alpha who had welcod 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 ss 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 t soone as brave and strong as Drew. He had never imagined that soone would face things so easily like that and with smiles.
Drew had always been their hope and the only reason they were sure that soday they would be able to make it ho 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 why my captain is defeated for the first ti in forever. Maybe she can give 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 mories, huh?
However, on his way out of the ship, he stumbled upon glass, sothing 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 ant 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.
