Somewhere Among The Stars |
After his encounter with the tribal people and recruiting Claydle, the boy seeks out the Nest, possibly the birth place of Zephyr and her kind. And so he heads further Westwards carrying Claydle in his satchel all snug in its own pocket.
Zephyr who really admires her shiny harness was starting to tire from flying more often because frankly gold is heavy. Little did they know because of the bright reflective surface of the harness they drew the attention of greedy captain by the name of Black. Seeing something moving slowly and glinting brightly in the distance Black takes his ship and crew to investigate possible loot. Jaydin, Claydle, and Zephyr are captured by the airship The JackSaw. Captain black determines him to be a prince because of how loaded in jewels and gold he is, plus his bird with its gold harness. And so Jax being the idiot he is, doesn't kill Jaydin, instead planning on keeping him as hostage until he can ransom someone for his safe release. Jaydin plays along with it and convinces him that Zephyr was worth a large amount of money too hoping to save Zephyr. Both are tied down at the hull of the airship for several hours wondering if they would keep Zephyr safe. Knowing they would eventually discover the coordinates to the fake kingdom is just a jungle territory and he desperately tried thinking of a way to escape with Zephyr. He found none, not only that he lost hope of being able to escape Captain Jax's airship. Just as he did so an alarm sounds, blasting his ears and causing the ships crew to run wildly up and down halls. Red smoke filled the sky outside the window, and just barely out of it he could see some sort of balloon. Things go from seeming bad, to worse, as the floor began to shake with a horrible metal screech.
