I've sure missed our cute pirate family!<3 There was a strange sensation that crawled down Silas' spine. Though he could make out the form of his sister and part of the map, further down the station’s tunnel was still enveloped in darkness. The boy couldn’t shake the eerie feeling that someone or something could be here watching them. That put the boy out of his element. When Liliya asked about the flyers, Silas could only shrug. "I’m not sure," he murmured back, yanking one of the flyers down from where it had been posted. This one had a picture of a human. And although Silas didn’t care to even try to translate, he had a feeling that this person hadn’t been alive even when their loved one had taped this paper up. "This stuff looks useless," he told Lily, crumpling the paper and tossing it aside. Rurik’s footsteps brought Silas’ attention to the staircase, watching as the light from the upper floor provided a backdrop to the silhouetted Russian’s body. Somehow it made his father seem godlike. Silas cracked a small grin. "Et looks..." he turned back to the posted flyers, waving a hand in the air as he searched for the appropriate word. "Trash." Rurik, it seemed, thought otherwise. He moved over to what Silas had dubbed as junk, and after a moment’s pause, ripped away one of the flyers. The boys icy eyes widened in wonder. What had his father found that he had not? Taking a step closer, he could see that now a small bit of map had been exposed. Now he felt foolish for not discovering it sooner. "This et?" He asked his father, pulling at the other flyers to expose more of the map. "You find bed here?" He too began to study the map, but had no clue what the various markings and coloring meant. Had their father not been there to guide them, Silas was sure he and Lilya would have been spending the night on their ship. |
