After the short surprise of the large vessel, my anxiety and slight megalophobia (which happens to be real fear) was starting to kick in. Every so often a wave would sneak up behind us and we would edge ever so closely towards it.

"Its a freighter!" A few of the other survivors spoke from their rescue boat.

"So, do you recon we should check this out or stay hidden below, until we most likely get sucked under?" I said after everybody finally took in the colossal ship.

Kakyoin let out a small laugh beside me "Don't be silly, we can't get sucked under the ship as long as we stay in the boat." He said giving me a reassuring smile.

"Hmmm, well good thing I'm not in the mood for a swim." Glancing down at the choppy waters.

"Jotaro," Joseph said turning towards his grandson. "somethings bothering you, isn't it?You look worried, almost like there's another stand user on this freighter?"

"Not quite." He said in his usual deep voice "Strange they lowered the stairs, but theres not a single soul to be seen anywhere. "

"This ship came all this way to rescue us!" Polnareff interrupted, and quickly jumping onto the bottom set of stairs that led up to the ship. "There has to be some sort of crew on board, even if their all stand users I'm getting on this boat."

Soon after, everyone slowly started their dissent up the tall set of stairs that clung to the side of the ship, me and the small stowaway however weren't having it, as our feet stayed glued to the rescue boat.

"If they tell us to spilt up when we get up there, promise you wont wander off without me." I whispered towards the girl.

"Are you seriously scared?" she said, as I slowly edged my way towards the end of the boat.

"What? no! I just have trust issues!" I whispered back.

"So you have trust issues with yourself?" She questioned. with a look of confusion on her face.

"uhmm...ugh!, look I don't have time to argue with a ten year-old about my problems ok?!" I whispered with frustration as the small line to freedom was shortening ever so quickly.

"Ok I'll stay with you...as long as you give me a piggy back?" she said, her voice laced with excitement.

"Whatever." I sighed.

"Take my hand, I'll help you up." Jotaro said bending down to the girl.

"Uhm, I think I'll take it from here Jotaro." I said as I reached to the banisters of the stairs, pulling my body weight along with small girl that scaled the side of my back.

Once I finally reached ground level I let out a sigh as I collapsed onto the set of stairs.

"Don't ever make me carry you again." I sighed once more.

"But you only made it to the first step?" She said sounding slightly disappointed.

"yeah, yeah, I'm saving my energy kid." waving my hands about, as I tried to look for something to grab on.

"C'mon you three, get up here!" Joseph yelled from the top of the stairs.

Once we finally made it to the top, the ship was completely desolate, no matter how many times we called, shouted each room had been left spotless no sign of life anywhere well...

"Guys, come quick!" the small girl shouted pointing towards a large metal door that had been left open, As everyone swarmed over. "Its an Ape! In some kinda cage?"

"Its an orangutan," Kakyoin simply corrected.

"With strangely large tits . UHh I mean, what?" The words quickly escaped my mouth.
