OOC: That's ok! It happens sometimes!
--------

His lungs were burning with the intake of water,a nd he was panicked and fighting harshly against the creature, so when Awiergan looped her arms around him to help, it was almost impossible for him not to accidently bash his head into hers. But even in his state of panic, and with the aid of the piratess's pulling , he got one arm free and went for his blade; and a moment later a sharp glint of a blade struck out int he water... the creature went limp; and soon the water was warming with it's blood.

Now free, he rose to the surface, gasping and sputtering out water, and before he had a chance to even think of 'thanking' her; another one of the serpentile creature roseout of hte water, hissing and exposing a glinting row of needle like teeth. Swearing under  his breath, Calent managed to catch the serpent's head when it strukc forward for a bite; and while he struggled with it beneath his grasp, he was able to get a cut in; and struck out quick. And now there were two dead bodies of these creatures floating in the waters.

"Gods.." Calent stammered, his eyes wide and his heart beating heavily like a drum. "How many more of those creatures can there be?" He hoped just the two, but he had a feeling they might not be so lucky. HIs eyes skirted the water, before quickly looking around them.
"We need to find a way out."

Backing herself against the wall as the one rose up out of the water, Awiergan was shivering with both cold and panic now. She stared at the vile creature and, once he'd felled it, stared at him instead with the wide eyes of a frightened animal for his question. She didn't even want to know, want to think about it.

Whirling around quickly, she ran her hands against the wall once more until she finally found some uneven stone to grasp. As she looked back over her shoulder she could see the rippling of the water from the creatures below. "They're angry, we better hurry. We'll have to climb, I don't see any other way," she said, though she was skeptical of their success as she slowly, shakily pulled herself up from the water and could already feel the rough edges of the stone tearing up her hands.

Like Awiergan, he too, was seeking a way out of this hell hole. Though as she groped and finally found some semblance of leverage to pull herself up out of the water, he moved swiftly towards her to help, just hoping in the same breath as he offered his shoulder for her to climb on and get a hole of the rocks sharp edges, she might do the same thing for him once she was clear of the water. And it was only then, near to the edge that he noticed a small recess and gestured towards it with his blade.

"Up there... do you see the ledge? Try to climb for it then when you're up there, give me your hand and help me up." And his heart was beating rapidly, for it seemed they hadn't much time, for the creatures in the water were swimming for them, and swimming for them fast!

She was grateful for his help, but the fear squeezing her throat made it difficult to say anything as she struggled to pull herself higher. Looking down as he told her his plan, she was distracted by the glimmering of scales and the rippling waters rushing towards them. "Ledge... Okay, the ledge," she repeated under her breath as she squinted to peer up in the darkness. Seeing what she thought he was pointing out just a little ways further, she stretched up as far as she could.

After a few slips she got a firm hold on the stone ledge and began hoisting herself up. It was just as she'd gotten her elbows grounded and was ready to crawl the rest of the way that she felt a sharp, searing pain in her calf. Yelping and flailing her legs did nothing to relieve it and she instinctively reached down with one hand to try and pull off the source of the pain, which only led to screaming when she realized one of the creatures had latched onto her. In her panic to clamber up over the edge as quickly as she could to rid herself of the vile creature, Awiergan instead sent her head straight into the wall with an echoing thud.

Immediately becoming dizzy and disoriented as she kneeled on the ledge, she lifted a hand to hold her unusually warm head. Teetering there on her knees, the fanged creature already forgotten in her greater pain, Awiergan was startled to feel a sticky dampness spreading in her hands that had not been there before. "H-Here, Calent," she muttered, numbing to the venom as she turned to reach down towards him. With her injuries, though, it was only a few moments more before the piratess blacked out and rocked herself back over the ledge and down into the water again.

OOC: Oh God, I didn't realize I let this thread sit for ten days without replying D:
I'm sorry! I post now >_<

---------

It was a nightmare, with the pirate being his only hope for survival (and he had already been working past that begruding part!), he found himself splashing back into the water in order to catch her while the sharp toothed creatures were making fast work towards them. The first one broke through the surface, frothy water rivering down it's slick, dark body as Calent saw only it's white, spiny teeth in the dark. A moment later, another joined it, and they were snapping at the pair as Calent splashed int he water in hopes to evade. He was able to punch one aside, but the other bit onto his arm,a nd another was biting at his and Awiergan's leg. And just as the numbing effect began to make it's way through his body- he felt something become him- and like Awiergan's fate, he too, 'blacked out'. But instead of passing out, the dark magic within him was resurfacing, and soon the madness took over, and the future Grand Duke was tearing each eel like creature apart.....

Moment later, their bodies- died pink from the blood in the water, were soon sprawled upon the grass and sands as the night time skies began to change, and pink clouds dotted the horizon where the sun was beginning to rise. Though it had been cold at night, the morning sun was quickly warming them as it bathed their bodies in a pink light, making the blood stains stand out even worse than they were...

And there Calent lay, his cheek in the sands and dirt with one arm over the pirate and both appearing as still as death. It was hard to say for sure what had happened, but evidence of the battle was in his finger nails, where the dark scales, skina nd blood from the water eels remained, and the bite marks on their flesh- still throbbing as the venom eventually worked it's course out of their bodies.  But it was still hard to say just how they got out of that damned place, but one thing was for certain- now the pair were free.

Juno

She was completely out and then...awake. Squinting up at the sun as she wiped sand from her cheek, Awiergan was nothing short of confused. Had it all been some terrible dream? No, they were still on the wretched island, and the heat and throbbing in her leg reminded her of the wound she'd sustained. It stung as it dragged through the sand as she sat up, feeling too out of sorts to stand immediately.

It was as she looked down at herself that she noticed the strange tint to herself and to Calent beside her. Not knowing anything that had happened she shook his shoulder to try and rouse him, though he looked completely out. "How did we get out here?" she demanded tiredly.

Calent groaned as he came around. The world around him was blurry, and he could barely make out Awiergan's form.

"A ship wreck," he growled, baring his teeth and wrinkling his nose at her before he wilted back exhaustedly into the sands.
