"I know," I said while still trying to open my left eye, which was tired so much not to be opened.

And as we were talking, we both heard some type of sound coming from below us and going toward the upper part of us. From the point where we sat down. But the voice that was being loud and covering around us, was like the other sounds we heard in the battle but much louder and it was approaching.

And when it did, it showed every part of itself, covering the sun from above with its shadow.

With its huge shape and size, it flew right past us with a magnificent amount of sound, and creating some type of airflow in front of us, the thing slowed its pace and decided to stop near us. It had many parts it crushed down, falling out of it into the air, and it's surface rubbing to the wall.

And just as we thought, it was the flying ship that belonged to the captain.

The ship was on the move until it got to the top, when it decided to stop and made itself easier for us to see. I was too badly hurt to stand up, nor to understand why it did while such a big battle went on. I even tried to use one of my hands to push the other, or even lift my body slightly to see around. But nothing was working well. Mila, on the other hand, was not strong enough to fight alone either. She was just desperately trying to help me and tried to keep half of her focus on the ship. In any case, something bad could happen or somebody tried to attack us.

But even though all of that was created in a single moment, in a strange way, I couldn't feel what I felt before on the ship. That dangerous feeling and sensation, that feeling of fear floating in the air and functioning as a thin rope, was nowhere like it ever existed before.

Barlog's strong feeling, seemed to be absent from the ship.

And so on, Mila was looking at me with a flurry, and started talking in a hurry,

"Isn't this Barlog's ship? If he found us here, then what are we going to do? We have nowhere to run!"

"Calm down. This may be his ship, but we don't know who is inside it. Just don't make some type of sound that will gather the attention to us."

And as we tried to be moveless as people and tried not to make a sound, we heard multiple sounds going inside the ship and creating other types of sound.

"I think we could climb up there!"

"Then use that point! We have to look around!"

We looked up and down the ship, and saw familiar faces at the top.

On the one hand, they stood there with the sun on their backs, and their shadows reflected on our bodies in a wide way, and they stared at us to identify us. At first, they seemed to me only as moving shadows, but later, after seeing the relieved expression on Mila's face and squinting my eyes to get a better look, I finally saw who they were.

It was Babu and Hiroshi, standing on top of the damaged ship and looking toward us. Babu was waving at us, while Hiroshi was shouting at us with his thick voice,

"Shall we give you two a lift or would you like to walk?"

I was glad to see them alive again. Just like an honorable warrior, all my respect and proud feelings were getting higher and higher and they were hitting me in the face and making me smile. I was just so contented to be able to have a moment like this in peace. But even though I wanted to talk to them and tell them about the events we were going through in a fun way, I couldn't shout at them because of my injuries. All the bones in my chest were collapsing inward and it was as if they were clenching when I spoke. So I calmly waited there and decided to experience all the good feelings inside me.
