Ok, story time!

Eve of The Eternals
Part 20:Sea Battle

The ships have been on the sea for three days. During this time soldiers spent their time by training, playing games, talking and other thing that they could think of to keep themselves busy. Vinedia, Gelweintall and Miene on board the same ship, while Felimor is on the ship that carries the Elvennia soldiers which comes from Leintein and Hacion with the Dargunons and the Heavy Armored units. Hacion was standing at the ship front deck when he saw something coming out from the sea. ”Could it be …” Hacion starts to wonders. Then quickly with his loud dragon voice he shouted to the ship where Vinedia was on. “Commander Raynear! A sea monster is approaching your ship!”

“Quick, prepare your bow and arrows!” Gelweintall quickly ordered the soldiers. After Gelweintall finished giving his order, large monster as large as two ships appeared before them showing its teeth, a sign that it will attack. “The ships aren’t built for battles, we have no equipment to actually fight it..” Felimor feeling worried of the situation. Galcalivern also came out to see what the ruckus is all about and when he saw the monster, he looked directly at the monster and looked at the captain of the ship where he is. “How I hate say it, I just have to say it. We are dead!” The captain put his two hands on his cheeks and the other passenger on board also did the same including Galcalivern and they all shouted loudly. “Nooo!!!”

“Will you guys on the last ship shut up! I will take care of this, just watch!” Shouted Miene when she heard the loud no shouting from the ship behind theirs while preparing her spear and bow. Vinedia runs down to where the horse are kept and come out on the ship riding Vilvendi. “Huh, what are you doing riding your horse on the ship, its silly to fight against a monster riding a horse on a ship.” Gelweintall looking at Vinedia weirdly. Vinedia didn’t say anything to Gelweintall instead she rushed to the front of the ship and jumping into the sea with her horse! “Queen Raynear!” shouted everyone.

Gelweintall quickly runs to the place where Vinedia jumped quickly removing his armor and intend to jump into the sea to save Vinedia when someone quickly grabbed his back. “No need to rush. Look.” Hacion pointed to an object on the sea. Gelweintall can’t believe his eyes, so are the other soldiers who saw it. Vinedia was riding her horse towards the monster on the sea! “Wow, that is so awesome! Queen Raynear can float on sea!” Miene shouted cheering for Vinedia. “Its that weird power again…” Gelweintall muttered. “It’s the power of the sea, it seems the Eternals have given her the power to carry a great task.” Hacion explained to Gelweintall. Miene who saw Hacion on the ship wondered how did Hacion get on their ship since Hacion was riding in different ship when they were sailing on the sea. Hacion smiled, “The Mother Dragon had created us to have the ability to swim in deep seas like our cousin the sea dragons.” Holding his enormous war hammer, he then jumped into the sea to join Vinedia to fight against the sea monster.

The monster is advancing towards one of the ship when suddenly a woman riding a horse appeared in front of it. Vinedia seems determined to stop it from attacking the ships. The monster roared seeing that someone is trying to stop it from wreaking havoc on the Elvennian fleet. It jumps out from the sea towards Vinedia. A blue glowing symbol then appeared on Vinedia’s forehead, then and image appeared in her mind. An image of water rushing at high speed. Quickly, she raised her hand then points it forward to the monster, “Sea cannon....” With the command water burst out from the sea shooting out like a cannon towards the monster. The monster falls back into the sea before it manages to hit Vinedia from the jump. It roared in pain then rushed towards Vinedia . Before it could reach Vinedia, something came flying out from the sea and hit the monster on the head pushing it into the sea. “Hacion!”

Seeing that arrows doesn’t do any harm to the monster, Gelweintall ordered the soldiers to stop firing. Gelweintall thinks that they would waste ammunition for the battle ahead and also worried that it would hit Vinedia and Hacion. He just hope that Vinedia and Hacion could defeat the monster. The monster rise again and sends a giant wave towards Vinedia and Hacion. The wave hit Vinedia and Hacion and also damages the ships behind them. Even though Vinedia did not fall from the horse, the impact and the strong pressure gives her body a very painful feeling. Still Vinedia maintains her fighting position and starts to make a move for the next attack. “Commander Raynear, I will go underwater and attack it from below and when I give the signal focus all your power on its head” Hacion shares his plan with Vinedia. Vinedia just nodded, somehow she still have doubt about Hacion’s ability since it is nearly impossible to attack from underwater with such a heavy giant war hammer that he is carrying.

Vinedia makes a lot of movement with her horse to confuse the monsterand she also launches the sea cannon attacks to weaken the monster. The monster still refuses to give up continues to wreck havoc by launching more waves. The damage of the ships are starting to get worse, a few more of the monster attacks and most of the ships will have a high chance of sinking. Vinedia wondered what have happened to Hacion since he did not appear for quite a while from the sea. The monster was about to launch another wave attack and Vinedia who have been waiting for Hacion to attack the monster doesn’t know what to do. Shoutings and screamings can be heard from the ships, Vinedia starts to get worried, Gelweintall just closed his eyes thinking its over. Miene just kept quiet watching the monster preparing to launch its attack. Felimor ordered his men to prepare in abandoning the ship.

Suddenly the monster seemed to stop, it eyes opened wide; from its face Vinedia could see that the monster somehow is in pain. Then a large burst of water came out under the place where the monster is floating sending the monster flying, from it appears Hacion who just smiled watching the monster in the sky. The monster is about to fall back into the sea and Hacion quickly gives the signal for Vinedia to attack. “Now commander, aim for the head!”. “Vilvendi!” Vilvendi who seems to understands vinedia quickly charged forward . Vinedia looks up to the sky waiting for the right moment to attack. When she saw her chance she quickly jumped from Vilvendi. Raising her sword which releases a bright light which the swords breaks into tiny pieces of light and reassembled again to reveal Fairlandis, its true form. “…Destroy! Rayclimber!” Upon reaching the monster’s head Vinedia focus her energy in swinging the sword towards the creature’s face. The impact creates an explosion, Vinedia continues to slash the monster swinging her sword upward each time, one hit! Two hit! Three hit! For hit! Fifteen hit! With each hit the monster is again send back to the sky. As the name implies Vinedia attack is gracefully done and the attack seems as she is trying to climbs the sky. The monster fell back into the sea, never to come out again.

Vinedia falls and stands up on the sea. Her serious looks are now replaced with a cheerful smile. She raised her sword as a sign of victory which is celebrated with cheers and whistling from the soldiers on the ship. Hacion who is a little bit farther from Vinedia lets out a simple smile watching Vinedia from far, he then swims back to his ship. The sea monster that tries to attack the ships to the north continent have been defeated and the ships continues its journey in creating a whole new empire…
