The Meet Up
I know meeting them isn't going to be easy, I wish I didn't have to do this but I know it's the right thing to do. I have always been okay being alone, never needed anyones help. I looked out for myself my whole life and meeting them wouldn't change a thing. I stare at the clock and it's 10hrs in the morning, I am just from taking a shower. The meeting is at 12hrs in the afternoon, I have always been punctual and I must arrive at least an hour earlier.

As logical as this answer was to most of th...
Sea Scales
Risk walked along the coast of the abandoned coastline. Her boat and fellow crew-members were far back at where they made landfall. On their way back to their homeland, the lookout had spotted an unfamiliar island in the distance. Despite traveling this route for years, the Captain had admitted that he’d never even seen such a place. The trees were tall with wide, fan-like leaves that swayed in the gentle wind. The second Risk had set foot on the island, it had felt like the temperature had been raised significantly. Still humid beyond belief, but far hotter than she was used to. Even with all...
