Chapter Five
Kyle is walking next to Riley. They are both holding metal detectors, search for the Charlotte. Kyle lets out a very long sigh just as Shippen comes up next to them.
Look, this is a waste of time. How could a ship wind up all the way out here?" Shippen asks.
"Well, I'm no expert, but it could be that the hydrothermal properties of this region produce hurricane force ice storms that causes the ocean to freeze, then melt, then refreeze, resulting in a semi-solid migrating land mass that would land a ship right around here," Riley explains in a mono tone voice and he walks off.
Shippen frowns in confusion as Kyle laughs at him and she walks fast to catch up with Riley.
"But seriously, are we ever going to find this thing?" she asks with a raised expression.
Riley looks at her and replies, "Its Ben, we're not leaving until it's found."
She smirks and just keeps moving her metal detector back and forth.
"You know, it's nice seeing you." Riley says out of the blue stopping.
Kyle stops also and faces him. "It's nice seeing you, too." She says quietly while blushing.
It is silent between the two…again. But this time, nothing interrupted it. Like, it is an almost perfect silence that no one could break. Riley steps forward a little. Their faces start to near…but then Ben yells, "I found something!"
Riley and Kyle both step away from each other quickly, both blushing madly.
Damn it, Ben. She thinks angrily.
I hate Ben right now. Riley thinks.
"Did you find it?" Ian asks walking past Riley and Kyle and over to Ben.
"No, he just felt like screaming that he found something for the hell of it." Kyle remarks sarcastically.
Ian turns and glares at her. Riley chuckles at her sarcastic remark and pats her on the back.
"You are one sarcastic little twit." He states.
"Oh my God, I know. But, thank you. That is a huge compliment!" she replies, putting her hand to her heart.
He just shakes his head. The snow plows are now put to use, pushing the snow away from the ship and digging deep down into the icy ground. This all took about two hours to uncover. Kyle got bored about an hour into it and is now listening to her iPod. She drums her fingers to the beat of the song "Kiss Kiss" by Holly Valance
You don't have to act like a star
Tryin' moves in the back of your car
Don't you know that we can go far
Because tonight you gonna get my
Mwah! Mwah!
Don't play the games that you play
Cause You know that I won't run away
Why ain't you asking me to stay
Because tonight I'm gonna give you my
Mwah! Mwah!
She remembers doing a dance routine with a few friends for a local talent show a few years back. They danced to this song. It wasn't for any reason or extra credit or anything, it was just for fun. Then again, her friend, Ali, made her sing the part while dancing. Not that easy to learn in Kyle's case, but she did it anyways and they came in second place.
"Have Viktor check the fuel in the generators." Ian shouts to Shaw while dropping a ladder down the door on the top of the ship.
Kyle looks up and sees Ian and Ben hovering above the door, so she takes out her ear buds and turns off her iPod. As she put it back in her pocket, she let out a groan and closed her eyes. Riley and Phil frown as they notice her do this.
"What's wrong?" Phil asks her.
Kyle opens an eyes looking at him. She replies, "I'm tired and I really don't feel like looking for anything 'History Like' today."
"And she calls me lazy." Riley mutters so only Phil can hear him.
Phil let's out a laugh and going back to checking the supplies for their trip back. Kyle opens both her eyes and raises an eyebrow at Riley, who just eaves his hand telling her basically not to worry about it.
"OK! Let's go!" Ben shouts.
"Yay." Kyle says in a mono tone waving her hands.
"Someone's excited." Riley states sarcastically.
"Oh yes, totally." She replies, going down the hole after Ian, Ben and Shaw.
Riley follows. As soon as everyone is down, they take in their surroundings. Ben opens a set of doors in the floor that lead even further below. He flings them open and giant icicles stick straight up.
"Damn." Kyle whispers looking at the sharp objects.
Ben walks in first, followed by Ian, then Shaw, next Kyle and last Riley. Riley and Kyle make their way down a row while Ian, Ben and Shaw look around some where else in the room. Kyle looks at the frozen over hammocks.
"This is so cool." She says to her self.
"Aaah!" Riley screams, falling over on the hard ground.
Kyle manages to jump back so Riley wouldn't knock her down.
"Oh God!" he shouts, scooting back and standing up.
Kyle looks at a hammock in front of her to see a dead frozen person. She looks back at Riley. The attention is on him now.
"You handled that well." She states to him.
Riley turns around and glares at her and then walks forward.
"This is it," says Ben going over to a door, "The cargo hold."
He opens the door and everyone goes in. In the hold is a bunch of barrels.
"You think it's in the barrels?" asks Riley.
Kyle lets out a sigh and shakes her head.
"What?" Riley asks.
She just looks at him and shakes her head and walks over to a barrel. They all split up throughout the cargo hold room. Ian takes a pick and bashes in the top of a barrel and he pulls out some of the thin black contents and lets it drop back in. He then smells his glove and looks back up.
"Gunpowder," he says.
Riley pulls the cork out of the side of a barrel and gunpowder starts falling out of it. He tries to get the plug back in, but can't seem to find the plug. Kyle laughs at him and looks around some more.
I'll update tomorrow. I hope you all enjoyed it and please review!
