Chapter One
Destination/Destiny
Throwing his head back he raised the brown glass bottle to his parched lips but found no comfort, no friendly drop to slack his mounting thirst. The rum was gone and all he had left to keep him company was his compass, a circular piece of an old bamboo map, and a seemingly unending ocean looming ahead. Land was nowhere to be seen and the sun would have no mercy on a lone traveler.
Taking out the compass, he shut his eyes tight and gingerly opened it. Using his right eye, he peeked down to find the arrow pointing slightly to the left. Finally he had a heading. With no crew to order about, he had no other choice but to pick up the short, splintery paddle and continue to row. His destination: Eternal Life.
A/N: I understand this chapter is very short which may not be agreeable with some. I can tell you the next few chapters will be short as well, but not as short. It is merely to introduce the characters and story I plan to write. I ask for those of you who find your interest piqued by this first chapter to hang on for the next few chapters and I can assure you the chapter will become longer and more satisfying as I progress.
Thanks!
