Peering through the storm, Huni spotted Neith and began to head towards her. "What's gonna happen now?" she yelled above the din, one hand making a death-grip on the railings.

"We're going to take shelter next to an island till it blows over!" Neith called back, still making her way to the lit cabin and out of the cold air. "Both boats... then when it goes, we'll go looking for them!"

Yeste's eyes widen and she looked up at the celing, her ears perked.
"Uhh... I think I'll stay down here until we hit land..." She scratched the back of her head.
"Well then...I'll... see you later if you're going up on deck... I'll be in my room..." She smiled and then headed back for her room.

Itsuki nodded and watched her to see which room was her's before nodding at Kerryn and heading down the hallway.
Once he made it up the stairs, it was obvious the storm was still raging on and so the boy quickly grabbed a hold of one of the railings. He could barely see with the wind whipping his hair and rain clouding his vision. Was that yelling? He thought he heard something over the whooshing, but as he tried to concentrate on the noise, something else entirely caught his attention.
They were definitely close to the islands. They weren't out on the open seas, he could see their destination now! If Itsuki hadn't already been happy to be out in the open and in the middle of the storm, he was most completely giddy to be making progress. Finally...
Like the child he was, Itsuki quickly headed back down the stairs and knocked quickly on the door he'd seen Yeste' depart into. Despite being now dripping wet and hair windswept, he was grinning more than he could ever remember. They were almost there!

Yeste' opened her door a bit and peaked her face out from behind it. When she saw who was waiting for her on the other side of the door she quickly opened it wide and smiled, glad to see Itsuki there, despite the fact that he was drenched.
"Well, long time no see." She smiled and looked wide eyed at him sarcastically. The girl's room was dark, all of the lights were off, then only source of light as of now was that which came from the hallway. Though Yeste' didn't look like she was sleeping, or that she was having any trouble seeing at all.
She walked a bit further into her room, her pale white skin making her almost completely visiable in the dark.
"Come in if you'd like..." Yeste' motioned for him to come in, though she wasn't sure she'd like him to sit anywhere, him being wet and all...

Kyoko enjoyed the storm and the wild nature around her and just watched everyone yelling and running, whereas she was leaning against a doorframe.
"Sounds fine to me." Was everything she mumbled as they came closer to one of the islands. If they were lucky, she could see her brother soon. And probably Itsuki again...

The wild rocking of the boats during the storm seemed to have lulled Kerryn into a daydreaming state, and after Itsuki came back down after going updeck - soaked and dripping - she couldn't help herself. Moving in a determined manner, the short simu made her way up the stairs - watching the land that grew closer into view. She didn't seem to care that her hair quickly got drenched, as did her clothing, Kerryn just hung tightly onto the railing and watched, waiting to get to shore. A swell of worry surging up in her belly - Was Ronin and Ray on that island?

Itsuki just smirked at her sarcasm but his expression fell once she stepped into the dark room. She hadn't been sleeping, had she? He wasn't sure why the girl kept the place dark, and why she was making no motion to turn on the lights, but he found it rude if he just stood there.
Itsuki made his way into the room and didn't bother to close the door and shut off the only light source he had. Finding himself wet, he decided not to sit down either and instead leaned a little against a wall. "Um, well... I went up top."
What a way to start... Itsuki felt rather dumb revealing the obvious.
"But when I was up there... I could see the islands."

Tlachta watched as the landmass ahead became more solid and less like an faint mirage on the horizon. Was it the island that the missing were on? And what would happen once the boat landed. She gripped the railing, letting the wind play with her cloak and hair, the strands whipping around her face.

Yeste' smiled, pleased that she'd be off the blasted boat and on land soon.
"You don't know how good that news sounds to me." Yeste' realized that Itsuki probably couldn't see in the dark as well as she could, and turned on a lamp.
When the lamp came on the room was filled with a soft red light, as Yeste' had placed a red cloth over the lamp in her room, so that she wouldn't be blinded when she turned it on.
"There, thats better, isn't it? When it stops raining or we land I'll come up there with you. Which ever comes first."

The last bit of information pleased Itsuki, more than turning the light on even had, and the day was starting to turn out better than he had expected. It was obvious to him that no one wanted to stay on the ship any longer than necessary.
"I hope this island is the one they're on," he worried aloud. Though, just getting to land was good enough for now...
Itsuki wasn't sure of what else to do, no longer having the burning desire to go up top again, and knew of the lack of activities associated with the cabin area. He was at a loss, so he said nothing.

RP conclusion
As decided by you all!
The storm's intensity seems to lessen slightly as the light filters through the dark heavy clouds. There's still a lot of rain, a lot of waves taking over beaches, a bit of flooding...
The boats both take shelter in a small bay on the island. While there, it is up to the RPers how each of you want to make the discovery of the boats before they leave again.
After that's done...
The boats aren't exactly large, so it's very crammed and crowded. Very crammed. People will just have to eat tinned food, sleep on hard salty floors and enjoy the end of the 'cruise'.

Tlachta stumbled as the boat they were on drifted onto the sands of a small bay on the island they had approached. She tugged absently on a lock of rainbow hair, not willing to be the first person to suggest disembarking as she didnt feel brave enough, but she also didnt want to be seen as cowardly.
'It looks like we have come to ground at last,' she stated softly, looking at the woman closest to her.

After what seemed like forever, Itsuki could have sworn the rocking of the boat had changed. He had only noticed this, of course, because he had nothing better to do than listen to the noises associated with the storm and being at sea.
So, curious as always, the boy hopped up from his bed and wandered out. As he made his way up the stairs, he was delighted to find the boat was in much better weather than his last trip to the deck. In fact, the scenery was as well.
Grinning, he ran to the edge of the deck and held onto bar as he looked out at the island they had stopped at. "Finally..."
The other boat seemed to have made the journey, too, and Itsuki could barely contain his excitement. He looked around and wondered when they would be allowed to leave the boats to explore the island.
