The week passed much quicker than Sophia would have liked, and before she knew it the time had come to embark on her journey to Iceland. Selene had told them to meet at the beach, as the sea was the best place for their airship to land without drawing too much attention.

She was the first to arrive, having chosen to show up an hour early to collect her thoughts. Strangely enough there wasn’t anyone else on the beach today, probably due to the massive fog looming over the water. Normally she would find the weather suspicious, but right now her mind was elsewhere, and she sat on the sand, watching the sea before her. If this was her last time here she would have liked it better if it was a clear day. She continued to watch in silence for the next hour or so until her contemplation was broken.

“You’re here early Sophie.”

Sophia didn’t turn to face the newcomer, already knowing who it was. “I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the sunrise, but too bad my wish won’t be granted.” She stood and smiled at Selene. “I’ll just have to make sure I live long enough to see the next one, won’t I?” She laughed wryly as Selene, unable to give a proper response, fell silent.

“A…Anyways… this is the right time and place right? Is the airship running late or something?”

“Actually it’s already here, didn’t you realize that this fog isn’t exactly natural?”

“Eh? You mean…”

As if on cue a foghorn sounded and a magnificent sight came into view.

The Holy Valkyrian Airship broke through the fog and stopped about three kilometers offshore. A small boat could be seen coming towards them, presumably their transportation to the airship. “The Ferox, she’s quite something isn’t it?” Selene spoke up with a smile, happy to be talking about something less awkward. “Where are your friends? We’ll be leaving within the hour.”

He thought it was odd that they were told to meet up at the coast instead of at an airport, and he was getting a bit jumpy seeing where they're being brought to are practically covered in fog, making visibility quite terrible. "...I thought we were supposed to be taking the airplane instead... Like, you know, a normal person...?" Not that he could say much considering he actually came here by a broomstick. Or at least, halfway until for some reason his broomstick just struggled to function properly a bit into the fog that he had to meet up with the rest on foot.

"Is it really a good idea to ride on this thing...?" Don't get him wrong, that flying caravel looked magnificent, he couldn't help but stare at it. However... "...Can this thing actually hide from demons...?" He hasn't forgotten the kind of dangers Selene had warned them about. He may not be the best in his field, but even a normal person could tell that this thing just SCREAMS of magic, or whatever other kinds of supernatural doing. Some very powerful ones too, enough to interfere with the enhancement on his broom. He loves magic, sure, but he's worried this would be like sending a flare signal to whatever demons wanting to hunt down Sophie, for whatever reason.

Though he suppose the alternative would being hunted by demons while sticking around a bunch of other innocent people in a huge flying hunk of metal.

Considering where they where headed to, the red skinned demon known as Heleth Mastema was coming prepared. A heavy jacket, a pair of gloves, and also a wool cap were folded in the backpack she was carrying.
It wasn't like someone could reallly notice she had a backpack: that day the demon's hairstyle was a very, very large and long ponytail, and it hid the backpack from sight almost entirely.

Apparently just another extravagant choice from the young demon, it wasn't only a way to stand out. Heleth's hair was her weapon, and she was about to go inside a castle filled with valkyries.
As a member of the race of demons that was obviously something stupid by her part. Surrounded by a bunch of battle hardened soldiers that could potentially be fanatically devoted to the cause of good would probably had her killed on the spot.

Just why was she going in the first place?
As she headed toward the shore to sail to iceland, the jade haired girl reflected on that.
It was obvious! Whoever possessed Sophia deprived her of the chance to legitimately win the place as Vice President of the Student Council! That was why she was there, to be sure that the Valkyrie possessing the Vice President could be righfully punished! Also, to be sure a sociopathic muredous valkyrie like Sanngriðr was wasn't free to roam around and kill indiscriminately out of sheer fanatism.

Not to mention that she wanted to be there to be sure they could keep their word as well! Something fishy was in the air, so Heleth had to go to the bottom of that matter.

Dressed completely in black, Heleth finally arrived on the shore. Her high boots prevented sand to enter inside as she made her way to the three figures.
Sure that mist looked odd. The weather wasn't that bad elsewhere...

Suddenly a horn could be heard and an impressive but somewhat ancient looking airship appeared in the air.
"Woah" Heleth let out, as she clearly didn't expect the airship they had to board to look like a floating galleon.
"I don't think it can hide anyting, unless it hides it for everyone" she stated after Isumi's comment as she finally reached the three "I can perfectly see it".

Heleth then approached Sophia, and gave her a reassuring smile, followed by as her trademark grin: "Ready to go?"
In her voice, albeit slight, a small note of insecurity could be heard.
Even if she didn't display it, Heleth was terrified by the idea of being surrounded by holy warriors. Valkyries were fierce, and her simple existance as a member of a race they opposed to for centuries could be way more than a simple excuse to outright kill her, wasn't she right?

Just like every sentient creature, even Heleth had her own set of wrong stereotypes and those certainly weren't helping to calm her down.
But she still wanted to be there.

"OH GOD KILL IT WITH FIRE!" "That reaction is how I KNOW I did a good job!"
The night before, Yuzuki had been sent a series of files from Dr. Alex with everything he knew or could find on the Valkyrie subject matter. He cautioned her that the information wasn't certain or complete, but if she noticed anything that correlated, it might help her decide what to do. She intended to review them during the flight.

Admittedly, she also had been expecting a more....conventional means of travel, but this would apparently do. Approaching them, two cases of luggage in tow, she stared up at the Ferox....then noticed how lightly the others had packed. Well, they were going to be away for several weeks or so! It wasn't like she'd packed only frivolous things, sure there were changes of clothes included, but Yuzuki kept in mind that this was an extensive period of time they'd be away.

Noting the discussion thus far between Heleth, Izumi, Sophie, and Selene, Yuzuki offered them a bit of certainty and stability in the face of so many things for all of them to be unsure of. Bowing to each of the others, she did her best to make up for her previous single-minded fixation on Sophie at the hospital. The others were committed and important for this, and no less deserving of her affection.

"Hello, everyone. I've cleared this with the school, all the preparations and necessary administrative matters are accommodated for. We don't need to worry about things here, so I hope we can focus on solutions. For starters..."

Yuzuki embraced Sophia, hugging her with her usual smile. Yuzuki was optimistic and hopeful, though not blindly so, and figured that confidence and cheer would help the others not worry too much. Keeping morale steady was important in matters like this. Mind you, much as a parent would be, she was a tad oblivious to any embarrassment this could cause.

Ethan had steadily became more and more worried about the upcoming travel plans. His parents being absolutely overjoyed about him actually being a part of some adventure made things so much worse. Throughout the week he had been cooped up in the library, trying to find out as much as he could. He even went to see Hiro for some advice. However, in retrospect, he wondered how much that all would actually help. In the end, he might have gone a little overboard for the trip.

'Several changes of clothes for all type of weather. My coat. Several lengths of rope and tape. Several gallons of holy water. An assortment of writing tools and material to draw on. Roughly 1000 American dollars in cash. My cellphone. A few dozen first aid kits. A few yards of steel wire. My wooden sword. A few local charms. Ten life preservers. Some enchanted silver. A pound of cold iron. A pound of salt. A pound of garlic. Rations. A box of matches. A few books. And a box of disposable gloves. Perfect.'

The boy neglected to realize that he basically needed a rather large cart to carry all of these things in. Almost purposefully oblivious, the boy quickly moved himself and his cart towards the rest, only to stop in shock after seeing the ship.

'...Oh Jelly Fries Cake.'


He quickly ran to the edge of the beach to "unload" his recent meal and most of last night's. When he was done, he quickly wiped his mouth and tried to stay focused.

'Can't get cold feet now. Let me just...let me just try and be helpful to the rest. Yes. I can do that.'


The boy seemed to be in a trance as he quickly started to hand out scarves and gloves and life preservers to the rest. It was the only thing that could let him forget the looming and somewhat ominous looking ship in front of them.

So... this was the kind of thing the norse gods got up to, eh?

Truth be told, the vessel was all rather impressive, nothing like anything that the lad whom gazed upon it, had ever really seen before. Certainly nothing like what his own patrons would employ, but then their's had been a different age, and they hadn't seen much of the world since then. Ares or Athena perhaps, keeping tabs on the art of war as it progressed, but even if they were to construct such a craft, they would not have the freedoms to take it to the world, as the one that flew before Japan's shores. With that thought, did come another - were the aesir reigning in Asgard when the treaty was agreed upon? If so, were they involved in forbidding the Olympians from setting foot on mortal lands? Curious, curious, curious...

THWOOM

But first, introductions, and catching up on lost time.

A familiar face


"I take it thats our ride?" The teen, who had grown out his hair a bit since leaving for Tartarus, looked towards Sophia as he dropped out of a seeming blur of motion. He was dressed fairly lightly, a backpack on his back, and a jacket slung under his arms. Yes, he knew Iceland was cold - been there himself. But from that, he also knew quite well that it was 'only' half an hour's run at top speed between the Icelandic coast and the UK. Add a bit more to get anywhere worthwhile, mind you.
"Still, should hopefully prove a good trip... I may not have been back long, but I've already seen the aftermath of not being there for my friends when they need me. Plus I'm sure she did some stuff to you too that I need to make up for." Jonny had either sent messages to, or seen in person, those affected by his unwanted 'replacement' in the time he'd been gone, both to explain, but to also try and understand the damages that may have been wrought. He had to set things right whilst he could.

"After you, ladies." Gesturing to half the present company, and to start on reinforcing the whole 'I'm not the asshole who looked like me' notion, Jonny waited for the girls to first make their way onto the small boat, once it arrived. He'd board shortly after where possible, because well, much as he might be interested - and probably able - to just climb onto the airship on his own, he imagined there was some kind of pomp and ceremony about this to be respected. And given he did technically represent the Greek pantheon on this Earth now...
Not that they really appreciated it so much.

“The Ferox doesn’t hide from demons, it’s a flying fortress.” Selene responded to Izumi with a light chastising tone, seems like she didn’t like the idea of hiding from demons. “The fog is more for keeping civilians away, since usually its carrying some…. Dangerous cargo.” There it was, the same tone she had used back in the hospital, like she was hiding something. But she quickly covered it up by walking off to greet the incoming boat.

Sophia, who had been half smothered and blushing in Yuzuki’s embrace, stopped her embarrassed struggles against her adoptive mother and gently eased herself out, letting the gravity of Selene’s words sink in. “W…Well, no use holding off on the inevitable… shall we get going?” The girl smiled nervously at her friends before following Selene down to the boat and getting in. A light rain had begun to fall, and it didn’t seem like it was coming from the fog either.

Hopefully rain means death doesn’t apply here…

----------------A little while later, aboard the Ferox----------------

The boat ride had been uneventful if not wet. By the time they got off the rain had developed into a full blown thunderstorm. Luckily they reached the airship before it got too bad, so everyone escaped more or less dry. “Up the stairs here, we’ll be inside shortly.” Selene led them inside and down a long corridor until they reached a large set of doors. “Before we show you to your rooms someone would like to meet you first. She’s in here.” With that she opened the door to reveal a chapel like room with an armoured woman watching a mural of ornate stained glass and four similarly dressed women on either side of her. Upon hearing the door open she turned to greet the group.

“Sophia, my child… I wish our reunion could be under better circumstances.”


“K…Knightmaster Sigrún!” Sophia quickly dropped to one knee and lowered her head. “I didn’t expect you to personally come all the way to Japan…”

Sigrún nodded. “Rise. My protégée is in trouble, of course I have to see that it’s handled properly.”

Sophia stood, but kept her head down as if ashamed. “M…My apologies… I should have been more careful…”

“I do not blame you Sophia, the power of the Æsir isn’t something that can be controlled that easily. If anything it is my fault for not telling you everything beforehand. Now… I’ll get to business.” Sigrún walked up to Sophia and reached into the girl’s uniform, pulling out the pendant that she had been wearing since that fateful night. Closer inspection showed that its colour had faded and there were small cracks all over. “…It is as I feared. Restrain her.”

Two of the guards stepped up either side of Sophia, clasping a set of heavy looking chains on her wrists. The girl’s eyes widened in surprise momentarily, but nodded and accepted her situation.

“I’m glad you understand Sophia, and I hope you’ll understand when I say we need to seal you in.”

“I understand. I will obey whatever order you see fit Knightmaster.”

“Good. Follow me.” Sigrún turned to the Hyakujians, giving them a wry look before gesturing that they should follow.

Heading down a set of stairs on the other side of the chapel the group came upon a large glass room. Within there was a bed, a bookcase, a desk, everything one would expect to find in a small apartment. The one thing that was different was that there were runes all over the walls and floor, that and the feel of a home. If anything it feels more like a prison…

“Normally we use this chamber to transport magical creatures under our supervision, but for the duration of this trip it will be your room Sophia. The runes are the only thing keeping Sanngriðr in check, so you can’t leave until we reach Iceland. We can’t take any chances.”

...That doesn't sound reassuring, to him it just sounded like they're just inviting for a fight to happen... Which would probably end up being inevitable. Not something the Ordinary Magician could, or would appreciate considering his pacifist nature...

He probably shouldn't... shouldn't worry too much... They wouldn't have taken this route had they knew it wouldn't work out, surely...

Something to think about, are all this necessary just for a single person...?

The rain seems foreboding.



~Aboard the Ferox~

Ever since he was a wee little lad, living with the Hyoudin family had taught him a great deal lot about the lives of those upper class folks. Or so he thought anyway, since the Hyoudin family aren't exactly the more normal bunch (as in two people not including him) either. Nevertheless, high-class doesn't really equate to royalty (in his mind anyway), which is the exact vibe that he's getting seeing Sophia immediately getting down to her knee at the sight of her supposed superior.

Not exactly something he could be comfortable with. It was enough for him to give the woman called Sigrun the wary eyes.

What they did next didn't help first impression. "Wh- hey Hey! What are you doing, let her go!" As much as he might try to get her away from those two he would more than likely be stopped anyway, though he would only be reassured when the girl in question was accepting of the treatment. ...Okay reassured was a bit too much but he would stop trying to take her away.

It neverheless left a bad taste in his mouth, seeing them treat her like some kind of dangerous animal...

And to think he only thought of that as a metaphor, when they really DID decide to put her in a room specially made to detain dangerous creatures. As much as they tried to make it feel homely and comfortable, it doesn't change the fact that she is practically being put in a prison for crying out loud. And the fact that she's... FINE will all this is only even more disturbing. "...Are you... are you alright with this...?" He asked anyway, casually tracing his hand over the door of the... room. No doubt there is a very powerful enhancement to keep whatever is inside... well, inside.

For some reason he's reminded how happy she looked when she was flying around so freely with her wings back then.

Dangerous cargo...
The red demon silently took note of every word that Selene said whenever her tone indicated she was hiding something.

Heleth welcomed the light raindrops falling on her hair with a frown and hurried toward the boat as soon as it was possible to step on it.
With the rain worsening, the demon was more than happy to be able to find shelter inside the valkyrian ship, at least as long as she didn't realized where she was.

Silent behind Sophia, Heleth followed Selene through the corridor to the chapel room where an armored woman Sophia identified as Sigrun began to talk.
The green demon obviously felt the authorithy coming from the valkyrie, and didn't even move a muscle when she ordered sophia to be chained.

Those were their rules, and the red skinned girl found they made sense. Much, much sense, considering what Sophia's condition was.
That was why when Izumi began to complain, she put a hand on his shoulder and with a finger in front of her mouth suggested him to stay quiet.

Still, she didn't like the look the armored woman reserved them when she gestured them to follow.
Heleth's dual layered eyes studied the room Sophia was about to be confined in. Runes everywhere.
Sigrun's explaination was simple. Those were some sort of restrainment runes, and they used them to keep Sanngriðr in check. And whoever was put in there as well.

Heleth stepped inside, assuming some sort of distracted air, but she immediately felt the effects of the runes as soon as she entered: her hair, something that was an extension of herself like a thousand own limbs felt like cut off, inert and lifeless. Was that how other people's hair was normally? How horrible! that sensation alone was enough to have her shiver inside.
'Curses!' she thought as she stepped out, still acting like nothing happened, and incredibly happy to feel her hair suddenly back alive.
That field was suppressing any kind of supernatural power.

If they really wanted to put Sophia in a nullification field like that, Sanngriðr was someone they should fear.
"These runes are quite interesting" she observed.
Any other thought she could have about that was kept to herself, but it wasn't really hard to see that her little devilish mind was contemplating what she could do with runes like those at her disposal.
At any rate the Head Prefect of the Student Council also made a mental note to check for runes like that through the ship, and also in the rooms the valkyries will give to them for the travel.
She was still a demon in a ship filled with holy warriors after all.

Jonny had opted not to wait on the boat ride, especially with the unfortunate weather, and instead chose to simply run across to the ship. With the cover of the vessel against the storm (though he still had a coat to hastily throw on), he was there to greet the norse aligned ladies aboard their own ship, along with everyone else. Following after them once they stepped inside, the boy speedster began to find a faint... how to describe it? Alien familiarity? Something where one's surroundings bore that knowable feeling, but with enough different to know it couldn't quite be the same. An uncanny valley for the effects of divine powers, perhaps?

Whatever the case, it seemed that he was to make acquaintance of several others before he might meet the big guys themselves. Several armoured women, as if at church, soon came into his view, and one in particular seemed to hold importance. A... knightmaster, to whom Sophia seemed to almost instinctively bow. It brought a brow to rise on Jonny's head, watching the situation as it then unfolded. He briefly, very briefly, took a step forward when word was given to restrain Sophia, but a moment to reflect on his own circumstances, plus the realisation of Sophia's acceptance, made him halt. Instead, he watched as the chains were secured, and they were then led on again, to where it was that the girl was to be held for the duration of the trip.

A small glance around had Jonny appreciate that they had seen fit to provide basic amenities, rather than leave it a barren prison cell. His eyes flitted to Sophia, and then to the knightmaster, before at last, Jonny did open his mouth.
"If it's all the same to you, I think I'll stick around here." Plopping down himself and his bag just outside the door, the boy from Britain eased back into the wood with a slight sigh.
"I've spent the last several months camping out in worse, so I won't mind. Worth it anyway if I can keep a friend company as much as safe." Jonny leaned over to give Sophia a quick wink and a thumbs up, before turning to the other warriors gathered.

"Jonny Desmond, by the way."

After Ethan had calmed down sufficiently, he tried to give some reason to himself. First off, such a deathtrap magnificent ship would be excellent for protection. Secondly, they were going to be with highly decorated Valkyrie knights, or something. Finally, they were from wherever Sophia came from, which was somewhat comforting. So, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Then there was the so called "room."

'This...has gotten very concerning.'

The fact that Jonny decided to stay with Sophia was a tiny bit of relief, but not nearly enough to keep Ethan calm. There had to be at least one more person to keep her company for him to be reassured. He could try, but if anything were to happen he couldn't imagine himself being much use. He could ask Heleth, but something in her expression suggested that she wouldn't fair too well there. That just left Yuzuki and Izumi. He quickly wrote a note to the two of them and passed it as discretely as he could.

Sophia stayed silent as her friends complained about her so-called room, merely nodding at Izumi’s question to indicate that this was okay with her. It seemed that in the presence of her Knightmaster she was far more obedient and wouldn’t speak unless spoken to directly. As if that wasn’t enough, it seemed like her whole behaviour was a second nature to her…

Sigrún shot a look at Jonny, as if she couldn’t believe he had the audacity to speak to her so casually. “It is not all the same, Mr. Desmond. In case you did not notice, the walls are made out of glass and Sophia will be staying inside for the entire trip, including the times she needs to bathe.” She turned slowly to face the young man. “The Olympians may have no problems flaunting their bodies, but here we have more respect than that.” She may have been was unnecessarily harsh, but she does have a point. She did seem to know a bit about Jonny and the other Hyakujians though, most likely from Selene.

“Your quarters have been prepared on another part of the ship.” Sigrún snapped her fingers and two Valkyrie knights joined them in the chamber. “They will take you to your rooms. Once you have settled in you are free to wander the ship save for the restricted areas. That will be all for now, leave us. I have something I need to discuss with Sophia.” With that the Knightmaster led Sophia into the glass room while the Hyakujian’s guides stepped in to block them from following and gestured that they should follow them.

The two Valkyrie knights led the Hyakujians to their rooms, which turned out to be pretty Spartan. Everyone had a room to themselves, but aside from a small bed and desk there really wasn’t much there. Looks like it’ll be a rather dull trip…

-----------------------The next day…-----------------------

The first day of their journey passed more or less uneventfully. The ship’s crew kept to themselves mostly, but they did do their part to make sure their guests were relatively comfortable. Even though the Ferox wasn’t as fast as a traditional plane, it was still pretty fast and they were now flying above the clouds over the Middle East.

As for the Hyakujians, there were a number of things they could do.

Those who chose to visit Sophia would find her at her desk reading over the magical tome she often studied in her free time at Hyakuji. The girl looked well, considering her current condition, though signs of Sanngriðr’s possession were ever present.

Or they could join Selene who was in a glass dome at the top of the ship, keeping a lookout for any threats to the ship and her friends. The way she was now was completely different from her cheerful teasing ways when she was a waitress back in Hyakuji. She may not know as much as Sigrún, but she was infinitely more approachable than the Knightmaster.

If they were feeling lucky however, or if their curiosity got the better of them, they would find Sigrún in the chapel-like room where they had first met. The Knightmaster was gazing upon a statue of the All-Father Odin, as if seeking guidance. There was no need to worry about disturbing her however, if anyone chose to see her she would turn away from the statue to greet her guest.

Of course, they could also explore the ship on their own. The Ferox was a fairly large ship with various facilities, including a small library and apothecary. What will you do?

The room she was given was pathetically essential. It could simply be resumed with "BAH!"
And that was exactly what she said as soon as she was the only one in the room.

On the next day, the red demon wasted a good amount of time pondering how she should keep her hair to be ready for anything.
After exploring a few hairstyles with menacing spiked tips at the end of her stands, she opted for her hair worn loose. It was longer than usual, to the point of reaching her ankles, and wide enough to hide her when seen from behind excluding her feet.

The daughter of Mastema began a small exploration of the ship, mainly concerning the road that they went through. From their room, up to the fork in the hallway that led to Sophia's prison and the chapel Sigrun met them.
Standing still for a brief moment, she looked around for other runes looking like those of the vice president's glass cage.
Then, she headed toward the chapel, keeping an eye out for any valkyrie that could approach her.

Reaching the door of the chapel, she stood still.
A chapel. Something made her think about the abandoned and ruined church behind Hyakuji High. Gods.
It could be so easy to not believe in them, but that would simply deny her existance as a demon as well.

Her hand hesitated for an instant before touching the handle. Her left hand ran on the two pendants on her neck.
She was helding the cross and the pentagram as she pushed the door open, stepping inside. Hopefully, nobody was around and she could silently contemplate that holy corner where faithful people could speak with their gods.

Unfortunately, someone was there. And with all the possible people, it was Sigrun in person, that turned toward her as she heard her entering.
What a great luck: no less than the Knightmaster herself.
'Curses!' She though, getting ready to receive some preemptive accusation.
Her left hand clenched the two pendants nervously.
"Knightmaster..." she whispered, bowing a little.

For someone who was almost always surrounded by at least even the smallest kind of happenings around him, be it a self-brewing potion, or portraits casually chatting with each other, or his broom sweeping whatever empty spaces it could reach back in his room at Hyakuji High, Izumi was of course not having a good time adjusting to the boring, dull and grey life on the ship. One moment he would be lying down on the bed, next he would frantically pace around his room until he's all dizzy. Every time he wonders how much longer it would take for the trip to last, and that made him wish he'd made a habit of wearing a watch like others would, because the Valkyries apparently dislikes clock. Or at least he couldn't find one anywhere he could go.

For today however (or however many days have passed, he couldn't tell and staying inside his room for so long with nothing to do broke his sense of time and a minute honestly felt longer than it did), he decided to pay a visit to someone. Which took him a while because honestly the ship is surprisingly huge.

Thankfully the walls.being made of glass made it easy to identify once he actually found the room.

He was pretty sure no one is actually allowed inside, an open door makes for a weak spot in a barrier after all...

So instead he just stood there in front of the desk where the Valkyrie... er, Sophie was at, separated only by the wall of glass. "Um. H-hey..." Oddly nervous despite having spoken with her many times before. Though he supposed those times did not have Sophie being locked inside a magical prison turned room. "Er... Weather is nice isn't it?"

No, it was and probably still is raining quite heavily.

And to make things more awkward he decided to sit down on the floor. So all he could see now is just the desk instead of the person he wanted to talk to.

Contrary to many people, Ethan liked being bored. If he was bored, that means nothing bad was happening. He wasn't about to be thrust into some sort of danger, and he wasn't being forced to go through some trial. Boredom was safety. Unfortunately, this was not boredom.

'Why do I get this incredibly anxious feeling that something bad is going to happen soon.'


He felt like that often, but this time more than usual. However, Ethan knew that he couldn't be closed up in his room in a panic, he had to do something productive, like exploring the ship.

Making a quick double check of his items, Ethan started to wander around for a bit. After a few minutes, he stumbled on to an apothecary, with a medic inside.

'Agh...person, people, nervous, scary. But there is probably something inside that can be useful.'

Reluctantly, the boy wrote a note and passed it to the medic.

[Is there anything that will be good for wounds? Or maybe some kind of antibiotic? Any excess of anything would be wanted.]

After he was done with the apothecary, Ethan continued to wander around. Soon, he found himself in the middle of what looked to be a decent sized library.

'Ah, much better,'
He thought before reaching for a book.
