Clayton heard a noise, and stopped dead in his tracks. His angry, slit-like stare came back to his normal, terrified look. And his breath caught in his throat, looking at the terrified Lizz. "Ah-... Aw no... Lizz..."
Will's phone rang, and he grabbed at it before the first tone ended. "Lizz?!"
"Bill, it's me... I blacked out."
"Oh God Clayton, tell me you didn't-"
"Ah- I don't know... The place is a wreck and... And Lizz is in a ball... I don't know-"
"Put her on the phone!" He demanded in terror, and clayton put the phone on speaker and set it beside Lizz, going to a corner and huddling there, pushing himself into the corner by the door as much as possible, wanting to disappear.
"Lizz, Lizz it's Will. I'm here. Can you hear me?" Will asked gently.

"Green-skinned girl? With-... Who's Hypatia?" He went through his memory banks, then remembered. "Oh, six months, that's right. She prefers to be called Luna, I thin-WHAT AM I SAYING?! That siren, she could sink that whole boat! You gotta get out of there."
Just then, the door Clayton so desperately beat to death, opened with a small click and a creak. In popped the head of the green-skinned girl. "What troublesome aura, but not as before..." She looked and saw Lizz, and keeping her dazed smile she said, "Hello, so you've finally come out."

((Gotcha. XP ))
It was about a day later. Clayton still didn't leave his corner, and slept on the hard floor. The mattress was still in tact and there were blankets and sheets, but he left that for Lizz. He was too afraid. Afraid of hurting Lizz, afraid of the boat sinking, but it had been a whole 24 hours and still no sinking. His stomach growled. It had growled for a while now, and his eyes were fixed on the basket of fruit. He was so hungry... Was that green girl to be trusted? She was the cause of all this, right?
Since he blacks out, he didn't know about Luna, and he had no idea who she even was. Will, when telling Lizz about the ocean travels while he was drunk, mentioned to Lizz that Clayton wouldn't remember a thing of it. The reason why was yet to be explained. Where were they going? Was the boat just drifting? Were they on an abandoned ship? Clayton had no idea, he couldn't think with his stomach growling so fiercely.
Slowly, cautiously, as if a single sudden movement would make him retreat quickly back to his spot, he started to reach out to a peach that gave him particular torment.

Clayton flinched when she got up suddenly, and stared at her like a terrified feral cat before grabbing the peach. Then he calmed back down, going back to his corner. "Uh-huh, yeah, sure, have me be the guinea pig here ta see if the food's poisoned..." Then he looked at it, and his hunger couldn't stand it any longer. He took a bite, chewed, and couldn't help but swallow. He was too hungry to care much now. He started eating the whole peach, and after a bit, his mind was starting to become clear. He got a nectarine next and started to eat more. "Lizz, this food, I've never had fruit so juicy before! It's amazing!" He said, now taking an orange, accumulating a small pile of seeds and skins to his side.
