Samuel Barry; the man overboard. Lost and forgotten from a luxury liner's journey to Calmino Island. A cabin boy fell overboard whilst the rich and famous continued their voyage unscathed by the storm.
The splash into the stormy sea nearly killed me. Because Captain John Rogers had ignored my pleas and warnings, the S.S. Luxury had met a minor storm. I was dumped overboard as the rich and famous clientele aboard the ship all protected their own and the captain got to see his prestigious mission through.
I never perished; didn't drown. The shock of the cold seas seemed empowered .me . I took in my renewed life and struggled again for the surface in hopes of a life raft.
It was unnecessary. I could breathe beneath the water. My newfound ability renewed my confidence beneath the water and I inspected the depths.
An oyster pearl and nearby golden triton beckoned me. I peered into the pearl and could see the ship anew. It still struggled against the storm and was still a few feet off of the island paradise. It needed my new power and I took the triton upon myself
Instantly, my eyes took on a dark hue and the waters momentarily calmed themselves at my command.
The S.S. Luxury could almost reach the shores of Calmino Island unscathed as the storm silenced itself as swiftly as it had come. Then, just as suddenly, it was smashed in an instant whirlpool
Vengeance belonged to the Sea Specter...
