Hey, so it's five in the morning, and I got nothing better to do, since i got an hour to waste til I got to leave. And that is exactly why I am here writing this, because why not, and I wanted to write something. We all know that there is no better time to write a story, than when it's five o'clock in the morning! Anyway hope you enjoy, I'm mostly not going to 'publish' this until I get home judging from the fact I get home early, please, please review. (note: I am not Scott Westerfled so I do not own the 'Leviathan', much to my misery, because who wouldn't want to have a flying whale in their back yard, or, or to be known as the author of the amazing 'Leviathan' series.)
It's been six years since the war started, Derny and Alek are now the age of 21, and they are working for Dr. Barlow. They get put on missions, judging on the lady boffins' mood, so you can never expect where those two will be. On this one mission though they get put a board the 'Minotaur', which just so happens to be the very airship that Deryn's dear brother Jaspert Sharp works on. Oh, how I am sure you can predict where this is heading.
Jaspert Sharp look at his door for the 50th time within the hour. He was still waiting for word that his sister, Deryn Sharp, or Dylan Sharp, as the crew knew her since men are only allowed to serve a bored an airship, was a bored and safe. he couldn't believe it, it's been almost seven years since he seen her, he also couldn't believe her secret hasn't been found out yet. Jaspert saw a flash of green as a message lizard enter his room baring news for the captain. "Sharp, your presents is needed I believe some people here are waiting to see you." said the lizard perfectly matching the captain's voice. Jaspert couldn't help smiling as he heard his sister mumbling something about waiting a whole hour just to reunite with her "cousin".
Deryn had spent her first hour on the 'Minotaur' listening to Dr. Barlow talk to the captain about the reason they are here. Which is so they can see if anybody suspicious was a bored, but Derny was really only here to see Jaspert and of-course she still needed money. Deryn annoyance was noticable to everyone in the room, but she calm down a bit when Alek put his arms around her. She started mumbling to herself while the Captain order her brother to finally come up and meet them. She sighed, happy that in just a minute she will finally see her brother. She look around the room with Dr. Barlow and the Captain starting up a new conversation, the Count looking around in disgust, and finally at Alek to see him looking lovely at her. She blushed and look away as she heard a loud crash and the sound of panting and laughing.
Deryn took off running to her brother, jumping in his arms, 'thank god the Captain already left the room' thought Derny. She back away and look at him with a smile on her face " Ha, I still around the same height as you maybe even a little taller. either I got taller or you got smaller, and I'm going with the latter." she said all this in a rush.
Jaspert scoff and look at her with mock hurt in his eyes as he said "Wow, you never changed did you, what else is my hair going gray too."
"Yes, but i didn't want you to feel to old, oi get over it, it not like it not true" she was beaming with happiness. "By the way it's great to see you sorry I wasn't able to write much" she said this so sheepishly that he blushed and gave her another bear hug.
"I missed you too, but I thinks It's best you introduce me to this group of yours."
Alek step up and put an arm around Deryn's waist and gave a slight nod saying "It's a pleasure to meet Jaspert Sharp, my name is Alek
Jaspert look ready to kill this, what Jaspert saw him as a rich sob, but the way Deryn look at the 'boy' Jasper relented to just smiling and giving a nod back.
Dr. Barlow introduced herself and the Count standing in the back of the room. Jaspert followed the sadist looking mans eyes to under the table, where he saw two beasties, Jaspert him self has never seen before, talking back and froth with each other.
"Well I believe we all should head over to our cabins, and get ready for the diner we will be having with the captain tonight. It's seem to have already started to be a long day, so if you will excuse me." she said as she slowly made her way to the door.
This turned out to be a lot longer than I was expecting, because this is only the beginning I have a lot more to write so I will be making this either two or three parted. Oh, god this is going to be fun. thank you for reading, it be awesome if you could you know review this, but you don't have to.
