Okie dokie, chapter number two up!
Enjoy!
Van spotted a flash from the ship, followed by several others. "What was that?"
Allen's eyes widened before he threw himself at Van, knocking him down as a flaming cannonball crashed through the front window. Instantly everything was aflame.
"Commander! We're under attack!" Gaddes shouted. "We have to abandon ship! Whatever's being fired at us is going to burn the Crusade to ashes!"
"At this height a jump would kill anyone who hit the surface of the water!" Allen shouted back.
"Then you have to fly, sir!" Kio cried, already getting severe burns. "The rest of us are done for!"
Van realized what the larger man meant and looked down for only a second before grabbing his friend around the waist and pulling him out the shattered window, the pair falling.
"Van, what are you doing?!" Allen demanded. "We have to go back!"
"It's too late, Allen! The Crusade and its crew are already falling to the ocean!" Van reasoned, his wings spreading, tearing his shirt to shreds. "We'll just have to avenge their deaths on the crew of the ship!"
Allen's blue eyes narrowed as he nodded. "Right, Van! Let's go!"
sobs Sad part! The Crusade is no more!
Don't worry, it gets better, I promise!
Please review!
