Chapter 385 Tin Can

Being stuck in what amounted to a tin can at the bottom of the ocean was not doing wonders for my stress level. Occasionally, I would hear creaks and groans coming from the walls around us, and there were even a few bangs as if something was hitting the outside.

"I don't suppose you know what that is?" I asked one of the men as they continued to lead us deeper and deeper into the belly of the beast.

"No," shrugged the man as if it wasn't that big of a deal. "Well, the creaks are from pressure on the hulls. That is normal, but the thudding? The best we can think of is that it is something outside trying to come in."

Was there any way to get Psycho back? I really could use her right about now.

'You do know we are all a part of you, right?' asked Violence inside of my head. 'So it's not like Psycho has really gone that far.'

I rolled my eyes and ignored her unhelpful advice. Another bang, louder this time, caused a bunch of alarms to echo around us and red lights to start spinning around. Fuck my life. This was how I was going to die. Trapped in a tin can with my men and not even getting to the group sex yet!

I was looking forward to that part!



Nope. Fuck that. I would take matters into my own hands.

"Beta, what the fuck is that?" I demanded out loud. Not caring if anyone thought I was crazy.

'A squid,' answered Beta, and I could feel him nearby. 'It seems to be wrapped around the submarine that you are in and squeezing it," he continued. He was so calm and blasé about the whole thing that it made me even more mad.

"There is a fucking Kraken outside of the submarine that is trying to get to the gooey center, and you don't see a problem with that?!" I screamed, my voice echoing down the hallways. I knew that panic was not the way to go, but really, who could blame me? n.-o-.v.-e(-l//B-/1-)n

'You said to keep you safe from sharks and zombies. That is neither a shark nor a zombie,' came Beta's reply. I might need to get a new Beta; I was seriously contemplating killing that one.

"Can you keep everything that is going to try and kill us away?" I demanded with the sweetest voice that I could. "That includes sharks, Krakens, zombies, and any other form of life down here with teeth."

'So, I shouldn't worry about the box jellyfish?'

Yup, I was going to kill him. Right after, I killed the commander for bringing us down here and Wang Chao for thinking this was a good idea. Hell, I was even adding Violence to that list because, even though she is a part of me, she is still one of the major reasons why I am down here.

Ignoring Beta, I turned my attention back to the Navy SEAL in front of me. "If you are unaware, you are currently wrapped up in the tentacles of a large squid," I said with a sweet smile. "We might want to come to a decision quickly before this tin can gets squished."

"We are heading to the conning tower now," smiled the man. If I thought I was crazy, this guy certainly had me beat. I told him there was a Kraken outside, and he smiled at me. I swore that if he patted me on the head, he was a dead man—Psycho's crush or not.

"And you realize that I have no idea what that means, right?" I asked with a smile on my face. The fact that I was glaring at him at the same time seemed to do nothing to worry him.

"It is the place where the officer in charge is, Sweetheart," said Liu Wei, taking my attention away from the man in front of me. "There, he is able to control the movements of the ship, figure out what is going on around it and send orders to the other operations on the submarine."

"And when he is stuck at the bottom of the sea, with nowhere to go?" I asked sarcastically. I mean, really, it's not like whatever orders he gave would be overly helpful right now.

'Kraken gone,' said Beta through our link. 'It was good.'

'Glad you enjoyed it,' I replied, also through the link. I was in a bit better position now, knowing that at least one thing was checked off my list. "Kraken was eaten," I said to the guys as the SEAL led me into a darkened room with a giant window showing the surrounding waters.

Whose idea was it that a sub needed a window anyways?

"I don't care! Find out what took that thing off of our sub!" shouted an older gentleman as he passed back and forth. "We need to know if it is coming back!"

"The Kraken won't be coming back," I said aloud as I saw Beta passing through the window. I waved, happy to see him patrolling around outside. "He was eaten."

The man whipped around and stared at me. "Where the fuck did you come from?" he demanded, clearly not impressed that we were there. Honestly? Neither was it, but what could you do about it?

"Your fairy Godmother sent us to rescue you," I answered, the grin on my face holding firm. I just had to avoid looking out the window, and everything would be fine.

"Fuck off," snarled the commanding officer/captain guy. I cocked my head and studied him. He looked extremely frazzled, but that was to be expected.

"I can save everyone on board and get them to dry land. What happens after is up to you, but there is no way for you to get back to Country M," I said as I walked over to the only unoccupied chair in the room. The room itself was dim, with none of the monitors working. It looked like the only light sources were candles, but even I could see that a bunch of candles in a tin can was not the smartest thing to do.
