They had been sailing for about an hour now, the moon was still in the sky, and it was quiet, besides wind that constantly flew threw their sails. Jordan was at the back of the boat steering, not really sure of were he was going, but just keeping as far away from the mainland as possible. Ariel was asleep on the deck; she had been there ever since they had escaped. Jordan watched her as she slept, he couldn't see her eyes, but even without them, she was beautiful. And she still held her smile, even after all of the hardships she had just been through.
Jordan looked back behind him and searched the horizon. He could not see the shore that he had left on, the wind was strong indeed. Tying the wheel to a railing so that the ship would not go haywire, he walked over to were Ariel was sleeping, and shook her slightly.
"Ariel... Ariel wake up."
Her eyes opened, as if she hadn't been asleep at all, but the yawn and flexible stretching dispelled that idea.
"Yes?"
"We should be far enough away from the mainland now that those men won't have a chance of finding you. So, I could let you off here if you like."
Ariel looked back to were they had came from, but sure enough, they were out far enough to were there was nothing but water surrounding them.
"Remember when I told you that some parts of the ocean aren't as safe as others, well the part that were in right now, I wouldn't even know which way to go to get back home."
"So you wish to sail until we get there then? But if you could not navigate to your home how do we get there?"
"Well, my father did once mention a name... It was a location... east... yeah east!"
"Was there something else, another name... East is just a direction..."
"Ummm... Faroe Islands... east of the Faroe islands."
Jordan smiled and went back to the wheel.
"As soon as we curve this peninsula, we will be headed strait towards that area. When we get there though, your going to have to go under and see exactly were I need to drop you."
Ariel smiled and tears came from her eyes. She laid on her side and closed her eyes, turning away from Jordan so that he would not see her tears. Then she whispered.
"Thank you."
