1. 21. An Ancient Monster

What is it?Theon asked me sharply. Theon thats a-” 

When the speartipped tentacle burst from the sea, I raised my hand, pushing the water that splashed high above the ship, back

A Leviathan,I finished my sentence as the beast rose into the air from the sea, his speared tentacles longer than the ship itself. His tongue whipped in the air as the crew stared at the creature before us.

A harbinger of death...Leto muttered

Well, we are not lingering!Flynn shouted as he barked orders

Theon and I stood there looking at the beast, that was said to remain deep within the waters of the ocean

Im going to fucking kill it.Theon growled, about to draw his sword. Those who kill a Leviathan are doomed to death, we cant kill it.I reminded him quietly, placing my hand on his wrist, stopping him

The curse on the Leviathan was known to all. Long ago, Oshera cursed that those who tried to kill the Leviathan, would end up dying soon after. A creation she had made to protect the seven seas

Who cares? Death is inevitable in the long run. Ill do it.He muttered, making me frown. 1 I stared at the creature, who was trying to get closer. I used the wind to push the ship away from him, using the full force of my powers to put distance between us, but it simply loomed above the ship, ten times the size of it. His eyes darted around the ship, as if searching for something. The moment his putrid yellow eyes landed on me, he let out a groundshattering shriek that made me flinch, before he brought one of his spearended tentacles down towards the ship. Move!Theon shouted, his arm wrapped around my waist just as I created a shield of ice that rose from the water. His tentacle crashed into it, shattering the barrier upon impact. Slabs of ice flew in the air just as both Theon and I were knocked to the ground, the ship tilted, sending us rolling violently. His arms wrapped around me, and we hit the side harshly as another tentacle came crashing down. This time I raised my hand, trying to force it back. Maybe I couldnt kill it... but I could encase it in ice

The smell of blood reached me now, and I looked at Theon worriedly as he got to his feet, pulling me up. I need to get closer.I shouted
