Island Romance

Chapter 2

SUCCUBUS ISLAND

Succubus island as the name is, it's seductive, some say it draws all sailing crew towards it, and never lets go. Only a few had gone into the island and made it out alive, but at that, they are no longer normal.

They come back after months, years, looking like terminally ill patient, never meeting people's eyes, flinching at touches . And crying for mercy at the sight of women, In short, they come back mentally unstable, with no solution. Only varge statements but never a clear detail of what exactly happened on the island.

That is why it's called succubus island, it's mysterious beauty that draws people close and leave them completely drained of life.

The same place this very crew was headed.

Thursday 02-06-2007. (11:56am)

Conor ealwss horrified, how the hell did they end up on an island, not just any island but a demonic one at that.

“Rich we have a problem, what…. What do we do?”

“We?”

“What the heck do you mean, you're on the ship aren't you?”, Conor asked angrily. He was used to him not caring abo6mosr things , but this, this is about their lives ,he could at least be a little 7emotional about it.

Richard rolled his eyes, “fine, first we tell everyone”

“I don't think that…..” before he could finish, Richard already turned to the crew, ND spoke in a loud voice.

“HEY GUYS, JUST SO YOU KNOW, THIS SHIP IS HEADED RIGHT FOR SUCCUBUS ISLAND”.

“RICH!!” Conor yelled.

Everyone was quite for a few minutes as they digested the information, looked at the direction of the ship to see the outline of succubus island, right before the panic began.

Everywhere was Chaotic as they screamed and scrambled into their selves.

“Michael turn this ship around”

Instead of moving away the got even closer to the island, then as they got closer, a terrible storm began.

“f**k, what have I done, Rich….” Conor turned to the last position he saw Richard looking at everything calmly, but now he was nowhere to be found.

“RICHARD!!?” He screamed over the raging storm. People were stumbling over each other , the storm getting worst, the ship nearing the island, and for some reason a human was missing.

“RICHARD!!” He kept screaming, regretting ever buying a ship talk more of going on a cruise.

He was still lamenting when the ship suddenly made a sharp, dangerous turn knocking everyone of them down.

Conor bumped his head into the side of the ship drawing a small simmer of blood.

Then he noticed the man in front of him, wasn't supposed to be there.

“Michael, shouldn't you be navigating the ship?”he asked surprised at his friend, if he was here then who the hell was stirring the ship.

“i couldn't stir the ship away from the island, it's like it has a mind of it's own, so Rich took over”

“Rich is stirring the ship?” He was both horrified and relieved.

Relieved that someone was finally doing something to save them,

horrified cus the dude is so heartless he could just drown everyone just to avoid the island. He would say something like: better dead than be traumatized by a seductive island. And he would be right, like always.

Just then Rich made a sudden Sharp turn that tree everyone on the floor again.

“Rich f*****g stop that” James screamed at him, and everyone found a moment to laugh despite their situation.

By the time he had fully turned them around everyone's mind was finally at ease, Michael had gone back to his post and Richard came back down as they cheered.

Emily, one of the girls on the crew, looked to the island and saw a strange figure staring at them.

“GUYS LOOK!!” They all moved to the back, they gasped as they looked at the figure.

“Please tell me that is not a real island dweller”. Lucy another girl asked noone In particular.

As if on que the storm got even worst, rocking the ship and knocking everyone down and sideways with it.

It was too loud no one noticed Emily nearly fell off the ship, or the moment Rich saved her. And definitely not when he fell into the sea.

They only noticed too late, Richard was lost to the sea in a storm.
