Adagio
The black ocean stretched out for miles. The only thing guiding the lone vessel was the bright moon in the sky. The SS Thibodeaux floated lazily towards Magallanica across a calm sea. Everyone on board was in bed except for the Captain and a lone composer eager to observe the mystical creatures of the island up ahead. Staring up at the sky, she read the stars, calculating the remaining distance (they had already been 24 days at sea). The journey was a success; no getting lost, no angry tides, no stormy weather… To be honest they should be arriving there by dawn.
On board there was a divide: who would be there long term and who would stay only for a short time. The long term passengers were settlers, ready to find a new, less crowded place to live. Students from a local college were there to study aboard and collect untouched findings with other renowned scientists. It's not common to see "have-traveled-to-a-newly-discovered-island" listed as experience on a portfolio. But Dvořák wasn't interested in the pH of the water or the color of the sky. Ok…maybe she should be concerned about the acidity of the water (the water they brought wouldn't last as long as they were staying *shrugs shoulders* they could only carry so much…) Deciding what was best; Dvořák turned her gaze from the stars and retired to her room. She wasn't sure the time, but she was pretty sure it was in the early a.m.'s , that was enough for her to want to get some rest.
This was the actually piece I submitted to the young writers program. You get into groups of 4 or 5 with a teacher and they discuss your story. Originally, it had nothing to do with Kingdom Hearts at all, but I had this idea in my head for a while now. Hope you liked it. R&R
P.S. Magallanica...actual island...or they thought it was oh well
God bless!
