This is going to be like the first quarter (third?) of the story!

I.O.N.

Hope you enjoy!

The ship rolled on the choppy seas as rain pelted them from every direction. Ladybug held tight as best she could to the post, but every second that passed she could feel her grip on the ship slipping. For a moment, the young pirate captain wished she'd left this duty to one of the others for a few hours. But then that moment passed and Ladybug was calm in the sense that no one else had to be out in this terrible storm.

They had all seen it coming and were able to get everything stored away and as safe as possible before it hit, so there was no reason for anyone but the captain to be out. She was there to make sure that nothing important flew away, but that didn't seem to matter as she herself was seconds from being blown off the ship.

Now Ladybug wasn't insane, she had thought that something like that might happen so she'd left her earrings in her bunk with a letter that told her first mate exactly who was to be the next Captain.

Even as her thoughts drifted the pouring rain loosened her fingers hold on their perch and the young captain Ladybug was pulled away when the next wave hit. She was sent sprawling on the deck, with nothing to tie her down. Somehow Ladybug managed to keep herself from being washed away from her ship when the next wave hit and was mentally preparing for the next one when an unexpected light distracted her.

It was one of the youngest members of Tikki's crew, bringing her captain some food to weather the storm on. The light was only momentary, but it was enough to distract Ladybug and when the next wave hit she was washed away with the waves, the young crew member's scream was torn away as well.

Well, that was strange.

And what do you know this bit was short too! _

I really need to work on that.

Also, two chapters! WOOOO!

Comment what you thought!

See ya next time!
