Ascension of the Monster Queen

They traveled for hours and made many stops, but wh night fell the captain came onto the deck and looked at the passgers talking and eating snacks, th looked at Nessa and approached her.

"Miss," He said and she looked at him and th smiled.

"Yes," She replied.

"With the water currt, we'll arrive in Mascra by tomorrow; would you like to stay in my cabin?" He asked as she stared at him.

"Thank you, but don't you have to stay in there?" She asked.

"Well, I took my rest earlier, and I won't be using it for the night, so take it and make yourself comfortable, Skiro has tak a liking to you, and I want to help a frid of his," He responded.

"You like Skiro a lot, don't you?" He nodded wh she asked.

"He may not be my kind, but he has always be helpful, better than some of my kind, so yes, I do," He responded to which she smiled.

"All right, I'll take the cabin, thank you," She said, and he smiled.

"You're welcome; go ahead." He said th she wt into his cabin and sat in the corner on his soft couch, took a few snacks from her bag, fed Akio th she began eating.

Nessa was not a person who trusted easily, but she knew the man was sincere and wanted to help because of Skiro, and she couldn't find it in herself to refuse it.

After they finished eating, Nessa fell asleep on the couch, and Akio kept an eye on her ev though she told him not to since she wanted him to relax as well, but that was an order he couldn't follow.

Later that night, while Nessa was sleeping, the ship suddly shook and she fell to the g, hitting her head while Akio flew into the wall, and she gasped before getting up and helping Akio up.

"Are you all right?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm just upset about being thrown and you getting hurt; are you okay?" He asked, and she smiled, patted him on the head, and nodded before exiting the cabin, where they saw the terrified passgers holding each other as the ship swayed and they screamed.

"What exactly is going on?" As Nessa lost her balance, the captain grabbed her arm and she looked at him.

"What is going on?" She asked.

"It's a one-of-a-kind sea serpt that's huge," The captain responded and Nessa sighed and looked at the other passgers on the ship th at Akio.

"It won't d well if it keeps attacking the ship," Nessa said as the giant gre sea serpt rose from the water and stared at them. Nessa's eyes wided as she saw how big the creature was.

[Master, that is a sea serpt; despite living in water, it is not immune to fire; you obtained fire breath as one of your abilities; it is supposed to work.]

"You're fast, I'll try it," Nessa said, her eyes turning bright red.

"All of you stand back," Nessa said, and the captain looked at her as her body began to glow orange, drawing the creature's atttion to her.

"Are you certain about this?" Wh the captain asked, Nessa looked at him and nodded.

'Now, there's no need to get close to him,' Nessa thought as she placed her index fingers together, taking a deep breath as the creature roared and began moving, causing the water to rough and the ship to shake.

The ship was swaying so violtly that Nessa began to lose her balance.

"This isn't going to work," She said, releasing threads from her fingers that wrapped a the serpt's fins, causing it to pull her out of the ship, and they all gasped as she took a deep breath and the serpt dived into the water with her.

'My lady,' Akio thought, establishing thought communication with Nessa.

"It's fine, Akio," she said, and his eyes shook as he howled, and the serpt rose from the water with the threads wrapping a its neck, and Nessa jumped back onto the ship with a few scratches while panting and placed her index fingers together as the serpt struggled with the threads, th oped his mouth roaring, and her eyes wided wh she saw tears in the creature's eyes.

"Help," It called out, and Nessa heard it th they all heard another roar in the sea and a giant black sea serpt appeared.

"Where did these things come from?" The captain asked, and Nessa sighed before releasing the thread from the gre serpt, which looked at her before growling at the black serpt as a few other ships passed by and became tangled in the mess.

"Damn it," Nessa said, seeing only anger in the black serpt's eyes, but not in the gre serpt's.

[Master, I believe this is a fight, a rivalry within their kind, with one attempting to gain dominance and the other trying to defd itself, but something is wrong here, they won't be out in the op like this.]

Nessa looked at the gre serpt after hearing what her system said th sighed.

"What are you going to do, my lady?" As he stood near her, Akio asked quietly.

"They want to kill each other, I think black is bad, it's the one that wants to gain dominance over the gre, it doesn't care who dies in the process, I'll help, I can't let these people die," She responded as the captain of the ship stared at her, and th Neesa blew a whistle, and the gre serpt looked at her and Nessa's eyes started glowing orange.

"Miss notice, if they fight underwater, they can create a massive whirlpool here, sucking the ships in, right?" Nessa inquired.

[Your prediction is correct, master; no one will survive.]

'This is bad, my only option to avoid that, is to draw the black serpt away from here and help the gre, what happs after that, I will handle it, but the black has to die first, this is my way of saving these people, I can't have them die knowing that I can help,' Nessa thought as the gre serpt stared at her.
