Chapter 2

Over the next few weeks, the golden blossom endured hailstones as big as tennis balls. Hail slammed against the skyship’s balloon, sometimes even breaking through the deck. One morning, they woke to see the colossal hail had stopped, below them was owl island but further ahead of them was their destination, the boiling island.

Peering down at the island below,Hunter thought this island would be safe. Captain Willow stared down at the island, determined to find the lost explorer. Augustus gazed at the swarm of pterodactyls flying above them and the owls flying around on owl island behind them. 

The Golden Blossom made a big thump, everyone on deck fell over as the sky ship bumped onto the boiling island, “why is it called the boiling island ?” asked Hunter.

“Because it is surrounded by the boiling sea,” Willow replied.

Hunter and Captin Willow scrambled down the rope ladder, Hunter and Captin willow gazed beside them at the disturbing witch village, as the sun light shon down on them. Behind them they saw the rest of the crew loading off the Golden blossom. Underneath them they was a pile of live eyeballs staring up at them.

As soon as, the rest of the crew loaded off the Golden blossom they started walking towards the witch village. Whilst they were walking to the witch village Captin Willow caught a glims of a skyship wreck.  As soon as she saw it dashed over to it. “Everyone there is a sky ship wreck over here!” as soon as they heard that they rushed over, Captin Willow barged into the old sky ship, believing no one was in there. When she barged in she saw someone standing there facing away already searching the sky ship. So Willow slammed the door and they sped away. Whilst they were running away Hunter saw the person open the door and caught a glims of their glowing. Blue. eyes.
