In the water we fight and as a marine i've seen the craziest things.
Things like on television or in religious books.
At first all I could do was being naive, not wanting to know about anything i thought that those things were just inventions.
But they exist and they are always lurking, waiting for you to become weak so that they will attack.
If you ever come across my recordings then please come and find me.
Dad.
I have written her seventeen letters after that recordings she was somewhere I could not find but I knew that if I would somehow try to sent her , she will come cross them. I would sit down each night in the cold behind a desk on the boat upon the skelets of my fellow collegues and pour my heart into the words I record and the papers that I could find I would write my heart and soul into them. I had to mean it so that she one day will feel that her dad did not abandon her.
I was somehow forced, forced to go into hiding after what I had seen.
Thirtheen days of disappearance and I knew that as soon I come out of it alive I will be dead , how do I survive? With scraps and dangerous fishing.
In the day I would be save, there is a small window where I can fish out of , if I catch fish small enough to eat I will burn clothes of one of the dead bodies on the ship and well you never met someone hungry like me.
Right now it has been five days without food and warmth , if I burn all the clothes I would not be able to change them.
A half sinking ship in the middle of the ocean , that stays half sinking not even going further, surten levels of the ship is overflowed with water, other are dry and the electricity still works of course with my brain and talented skill in mechanics and things I’ve always have been fixing, I could make some technological invention out of nothing, why because I am awesome.
The reason why I’m here ? Is the reason why I left , I thought I could make some more money but I learned my lesson with what happened.
I just wonder how I survived this ? While all of them have been killed during the first flood.
Is it luck? I don’t know but I almost had made it out alive , during th first fight I survived with a woman a medic and she was on board , she had died saving my ***, her death was as devastating as the attack made us all bloody and bones.
But she sure did made me make it so that I could record all the tapes for my little girl called
Echo.
Why would I even bother to do the effort because I know Echo , no matter how old she is , I know that she is just like me and will never give up looking for me.
@mebalze: Thank you for reading the prologue of this serie , hope you enjoyed it see you until the next episode on Saturday 19:19pm put up you notification so that your notified for the upcoming stories.
In the middle of the sea there's a boat, its 11:11 pm and you could hear a scream of men and a sound of heavy objects thrown out in the sea.
Once you go inboard you find the screaming man, him the guy they had to have and his name is Cyan Tales, he was the son of a man that once started out as a fisherman and then became a marine, he then married a woman named Meril and they had a baby and why telling you this dull somewhat futile yet somewhat useful information? It's because I did not wanted you to know that I just got my butt kicked.
It's humiliation and I do not like being humiliated .
As a water citizen I believed this one was rather humiliating because not only could we get out of that situation but that day it was my daughter that saved my sorry ***.
This is how she saved the day, but to understand this situation, let me bring you back to where it all started and for you to understand, i need to tell you about my child's birth.
Wait! Before you close this book or get bored already i promise you won't regret this if you just stay and hold on, i promise it will be scary, bloody and magical.
It was Friday on January 13th 2017 and the moon was suppose to be white but it became unusually red.
...I was afraid, because her birth was between life and death, i could lose my wife or my daughter but unfortunately the battle to give life was over for my beloved partner ,but for my daughter it just had started....
Whenever she cried she gave me hope, but also made me depressed.
For others having a baby is a blessing, for others it's a normal thing and for some it doesn't mean a single thing.
Losing my life partner that day and gaining my daughter made me question life in a way, i didn't blame my daughter for the death of her mother, i blamed no one but the battle, a battle we knew we could've risked and we took the risk.
You see my partner had a rare disease and still wanted a baby, but she couldn't and could've risk her life, there were discussions and fights about having a kid, but i eventually gave into her , her wishes and that made her a lot more happy.
I had never seen my partner joyful but that day was one of them.
One day she gave me a gift and a letter and i promised to protect and love my daughter forever.
The day after the release of the hospital when i could've take my child with me.
I came home and as soon i did, i witnessed something i never ever did in life, or at my work life.
You see, I followed my father's footsteps into the marine, I always dreamed to be a painter though or an inventer of greater things, when that did not convince my dad I became an engineer in the marine force.
Inside our house, her Toys would float around whenever my daughter would be crying, as a believer of a higher power and the heavens and all you want, i believed that this was a sign of her mother being alive in another form.
Everything went smoothly in our lives but then one day I had noticed something.
Echo didn’t speak so most of her time she grew up without speaking during those three years of development at the age of three she could understand each word i said and written even when she could not reply but it was ok because she knew i loved her even more because of her gift.
My daughter has high intelligence but never once spoke, i panicked, maybe i was the bad father I never intended to become, or because of who i am she is the way she is?
Even my partner did not know my secret but i came to a conclusion after so many doctor appointments and visits to the hospital that my daughter has dysarthria, she is unable to speak and the doctor thinks she is deaf while she can hear better than the most people.
After that news i was devastated as a single father, i could never hear her voice in speech, the only time i heard her voice was when she was a baby, when she cried, which she after a while did not do so often anymore.
Her full name Is Elima Echo Tales, but i call her Echo because her silence is louder than her spoken words she had never spoke.
Regardless of my pain , Echo still grew into a wonderful girl and the way she use her speech with me was through her eyes , her body nod hands.
She was homeschooled by a teacher who teaches her auditory communication and so that's when she started to speak words with her hands.
One day it was raining and the weather was also misty and dark, the day was like the night because the sun didn't came true and I had opened my eyes slowly because it felt like a presence in my sleep.
Something above me, i eventually gathered the courage to open them and to my surprise a familiar scent i smelled from the ceiling, a dark voice penetrates my mind and the voice became clearer, my eyes spread wider and there i observe more precisely , i see her doing things she would have never done, floating above my head.
Her auburn red locks going down and she descends lower and lower into the light so that i could see its face, and that's where i realized my daughter wasn't an ordinary child, or my wife wasn’t a goth who lifts up her toys no those are my hallucinations.
My Echo was special and right now above my bed looking up at the dark ceiling freaked out not knowing what this is meant to be , she was sleeping , floating in the air and it didn't ended there..
^^^@mebalze: imagine your daughter sleep float above your head while you were sleeping, do you think you would react the same as Mstr.Tales? Thank you for reading see you until the next episode on Saturday 19:19pm put up you notification so that your notified for the upcoming stories.^^^
