My adventure story – prologue

          Let’s recap back to December, you might’ve been on holiday and travelled on a Skyship. You probably gazed at the enchanted lake, the sunlit beach, covered in snow with seagulls gliding around and the clear, mystical depths of the deep blue ocean. The twinkling stars glancing down at you from above. You may have heard howlers if you turned left coming from out of the woods, however you are flying above them, so you can’t be harmed. Anytime it got cold,you were probably wrapped up in blankets and coats, because when the air conditioning doesn’t work, it can get as cold as the south pole. There would’ve been hot chocolate machines with employees handing out free hot chocolate. Travelling by Skyship in winter is like that.

          Although it sounds fun, there are some downsides to it. Turbulence can be scary, but if you like being thrown around for 20 minutes straight, you’d be fine. You should come across a situation where there’s no food left on the entire ship, for the goblins invade at night. Try surviving if the pilots fall asleep and no one can steer. There ought to be a troll attack at least once, they will dig their teeth into your skin, or worse, knock you out so you can’t feel them inject their venom into you, which will result in you becoming a troll. If we run out of AIR, then that’s a problem. Everyone would be forced to put on oxygen masks, but when you put one on, it puts chemicals into your mouth, so some people refuse to put them on. But that always results in them passing out on the floor for a few hours.

Chapter One.

          Evelyn and Vincent were getting ready to take off. Both of them were glancing out of the window, while the crowd was cheering and applauding outside. Captain Relphart is setting up in the cockpit. He took a deep breath and confidently laid his hands on the wheel. Suddenly, the engines scream as the Skyship slowly and carefully rises off the ground. Evelyn let out a huge high pitched squeal of excitement, Vincent was spraying the door with whisperer repellent, so the night whisperers don’t want to come in. And before they knew it, they were in the air!

          Everyone on board gasped as they gazed out of the window. They could see the enchanted bridge and the trolls from underneath were shimmering as the sun laid its golden beams on their heads. The extreme summer air is as fiery as a cosy fireplace in frosty winter. Evelyn takes a whiff of the air, looking at the astonishing view out of the clear window quietly. Thinking about getting a hot chocolate. Vincent smiled. “Just think, Ermitage Wrigglesworth is lost out there, he could be anywhere.” Evelyn sighs as she thinks to herself, if they don’t find him, she would never forgive herself. Or Vincent.

          A deafening sound suddenly hits everyone’s eardrums. The whole Ship starts to shake. Screams were bursted out everywhere. Captain Relphart makes it clear to everyone that it’s just turbulence and it’ll be over in a few minutes. After that incident they could hear birds singing, the warm breeze roaring and the engine growling. Every crew member was amazed how they are so lucky that they are able to experience this. Evelyn looked at Vincent, and was wondering how he was sleeping already.

         Everyone was enjoying themselves, until they heard a little bang on the door. Vincent woke up as the banging became louder. Scared looks appeared upon everyone’s face. Some people hid behind cabinets, some grabbed weapons. Whatever was banging on the door, it really wanted to get in. After about half an hour, the door opened and a Chaiah barged in with its razor blade-like teeth, frizzy hair and pointed, threatening claws. Everyone screamed, but Vincent walked over to it, after it decapitated three or four people and said, “Good job George, it all went to plan,” smirking.
