Snippet #927116

The soft sound of crashing waves reached a woman's ears, the sound at first so far away, so soft, but as her senses returned to her, the crisp scents of the sea reached her nose, the sound seeming sp much nearer as she felt something lukewarm lap at the back of her knees. “Mhh, uh...” her soft voice groaned out, before a few gasping coughs fallow, riding her lungs of what sea water that still resided with in, her hand slowly planting itself firmly in the small grain below it, as her fore arm fallowed. She carefully raising her head up as her arms raised the upper half of her body a bit off the san, she using the back of one of her white clad arms to wipe away the sand that had stuck to her face. The material had taken a slight brown tinge from the sand. Finally she carefully opened her those bright blue eyes the fogginess of sleep slowly fading as the sun caught them, making her quickly shut them in protest of the suns glare, finally noticing that about every muscle in her body was almost throbbing in pain. “What the hell?...” She muttered softly, coughing once more as she forced her self to sit on her knees, placing a hand behind her to help her keep her balance as the other ran through her blond and brown locks, still slightly damp with the water of the sea, giving her hair a slight wave to it. “What did I do last night?” She grumbled opening her eyes once more, her eyes widening despite there protest to the bright glare of the sun as she saw palm tree’s before it reached into grass, before it was cut ff by the face of a brown stone cliff, gray stones high stones on either side of her. She gave a slight squeak, lurching herself forward as she finally noticed the water that ran over her legs and had lapped at the back of her jacket just then. she slowly turned her head looking behind her to see the vast, never ending ocean behind her, the sea such a deep blue, so clear, at any other moment she would consider this a beautiful sight, but her mind had snapped back into focus, last nights events quickly flooding her mind.

Salem had just returned to her room after having stopped by the ships night club of sorts, having a few drinks, chatting with a few people non, really sparking too much interest in her, one guy being way too foreword, and probably a little too buzzed ended up getting a slap across the face in return from her, it wasn’t long after that did she leave to go to her room. When some random creep decides it’s a good idea to grab your ass after speaking to them for only seven minutes, is probably a good idea to go before you get a little madder. As she returned to her room she had stopped to look out one of the portholes to look out at the sea, the water so dark, almost as the darkness of the sky had tainted those once shining waters. She sighing before running their fingers through her once almost perfect hair, messing up her neat locks before she had continued on her path to her room. Once she had got in her room, her first course of action was to get out of her heels, her feet gratefully welcoming the plush white carpet beneath them as she slipped off her heels before making her way to the little closet in her room, sliding open the sliding door before she carefully pushed a few of her dresses and jackets aside, on of the few things that wrinkled. She unlatching her suitcase before opening it, pulling out her sleep shorts, a fresh pair of panties and a tank top before she walked over the red wood door of her bathroom, sliding it open as she carefully pulled her hair pin s out of her hair before starting up her shower, striping down before jumping in, gratefully washing out the gel and hair spray with her orchid scented shampoo and conditioner, before washing off her make-up with her almond and cherry blossom scented body wash, grateful for this few minutes of total piece, ignoring the sound of the light drizzle of rain as it hit the large porthole that lied opposite of her bed, the quite rumbles of thunder drowned out by the patter of the shower. It was probably a half an hour before she had finally turned off the water, grabbing a plush, blue towel off her towel rack, wrapping it tightly around herself before stepping out, going to the mirror where her tooth brush and toothpaste that laid on the sink, wiping clear the mirror before brushing her teeth, noticing that those dark rings under her eyes had finally faded away after the last week she’s been on this cruise. ‘I guess I really was working too much..’ she had thought, using make up remover to get rid of her water proof mascara and eyeliner, her thick, long eye lashes grateful for the relief of this. She quickly throwing on her sleep cloths soon after.

She quickly leaving the still steaming bathroom, the air-conditioning chilly to her warm skin as she quickly dived under the covers, smiling at the teddy bear she had perched on the bedside table. “Night Ni-Ni, you’ll be home with Terra soon.” She said, to her baby sisters teddy bear shaking her head at her childish statement. Her little sister had really rubbed off on her. She closing her eyes before she rolled on her side, drifting of to sleep.....it was probably barely half an hour latter when a loud high pitch sciren screaming in her ears . It was then she fell out of bed with a loud thud, her side throbing in response as the anoncement of life-preservers or something hit her ears, she being unable to process what was going on as the fogginess of sleep and now fear clouded it slightly, her only though being ‘what the hell is going on?!’ She quickly running to her closet, hoping puling on her UGG boots. before snatching her white double zip hoddie, yanking it off a hanger before slamming open her door pulling it on, zipping it on as she ran, up the hall almost being knocked over by a few panicking people who had woken from there sleep in a similar manner, though once she finally made it on deck, all went blank, the remembrance of pain, and a suffocating feeling being the only thing there. Something must have hit her, making her fall off the ship....

“I feel like I’ve been hit by a car...” She muttered forcing herself to her feet, her legs shaking slightly, as the skin scratched gently at her soft skin. looking up at the shorter of the three stone surfaces. First things first...I need to get out of this spot... She thought, walking up to the rock, finding a foot hold, before pushing herself up, grabbing hold of what she could before she began to climb, her muscles shaking in protest. When she finally felt her hands meet the flat surface of the top. She using the last bit of her strength she had at the second to pull herself up, laying rolling on her back. “Ow....” She grunted, hissing as her leg scraped against something. Drawing a little blood. Her only though being, other then a few curses...Am I the only one here? Making that feeling of panic and dread boil in her stomach, as realization of her situation had finally sunk in.
