I walk up the gangplank of the ship and look around.

Caribbean Sunrise

It's a nice name for a ship I suppose. The Captain nods at me as I catch her eye and I notice that she's got a long scar down one cheek. I wonder how she got that? I'll ask sometime during the voyage.

Let me introduce myself.

My name is Anouka. I'm one of the last of the royal family of a tribe from a place called Terakia. We always manage to find each other but lately I'm beginning to see less and less of my people and I'm worried. That's why I've decided to take this boat out to the Bermuda Triangle. When we pass by I'm going to jump into the water. It's our point of origin. Our gateway to the dimension we come from.
Terakia needs me. I can feel it.

I wander around the ship and realise that it must be in some way magical. There's so much room here, and anything that I want or need arrives when I think about it.
I make my way below deck and find that there are loads of individual cabins.
Pushing open the door of one I gasp and slowly take my backpack off my back and drop it on the floor.

Now this is my idea of travelling in style! The room is big, theres a porthole window near the bed and I can see out under the ocean. A fish swims past and I smile.
How I have missed the sea.

I wonder who else is travelling on the ship.

Author guidance for This exercise

Ok

The Ship To Nowhere is quite literally, a ship to nowhere. It travels around, it can stop anywhere and pick people up or drop people off but it has no specific destination.

You can add in any character you like, characters you already have in another story, characters you just made up. Whatever you want!

Everyone is welcome to join in.

The only rule is that every character has to be going on a journey for a reason.
You can decide how long that will take and if the story lets you, then you can change their minds as to where they end up as much as you like...as long as you have good reasons!!

So far in the story we have
Anouka
Age: Unknown
She's a Terakian Princess, and is on her way to the Bermuda triangle.

Bliss
Age:Eighteen
A runaway. Bliss isn't sure where she's going yet but she knows she had to leave.

Theodore
Age:Eighteen
Theodore is an Animagus. He's been living on the ship for two years. He is from a place called Rybble and the moon needs to be in a certain place for him to return there.

Kallah
Age: Nineteen
A sad, confused girl who fell quickly from a happy life searching for an escape from drugs, abuse, and a rocky past on the ship with no destination.
