In preparation to travel to the new world, Carlos practiced his abilities, both as himself, and as his "alternate" 4 bodies, Isabel, Artemis, the white werewolf who he called Fang, and Selina
He practiced in the night, with Isabel watg him and keeping wat case anyone sees him
In each body, he had enharength, with his own body as strong as a bear meaning roughly 20 times that of a normal human, and his penis was extendable and had the strength of an elephant trunk. He had regeing healing abilities too
As Isabel, he had both enharength, speed and agility, regeing abilities plus some manner of mental abilities being able to charm, sedud trol other minds. She could also sprout huge bat-like wings, and her her hands a became sharp cws as well as sprout fangs in her mouth. She was weaker than Carlos' normal strength, merely able to be as strong as 10 men
As Artemis, she was as strong as 15 men, with speed and regeive healing abilities. She was the ultimate warrior, and rofit in any mortal on
As Fang, he had cws and fangs like Isabel, and had the strength of 15 men. He also had a enhanced speed and agility, and a healing factor, and was also immuo spells.
As Selina, she was as strong and fast as Fang, and had a healing ability too. As Artemis, her healing was near instantaneous, and she could trol rodents, bats and wolves too. She could also fly, but she didn't sprout wings, rather she could fly simply on her own strength
Isabel hat Carlos' flying was as good as hers, able to use her abilities as easily as she could hers
With that, Carlos felt ready to embark to the new world!
--
"Wow! This is great!" Isabel yelled as they sailed in the wind
Carlos stood behind her, holding her waist as she spread her arms at the bow of the ship
"I'm flying!" she said happily
"You fly anyway" Carlos thought to himself, as he had seen Isabel literally with wings, flying in the air. This was when Carlos experimented i, transf to his many forms, figuring out what they could do. Isabel could sprout batlike wings and fly, as could Selina who could fly without wings. Maybe Isabel didn't know she could do this, or maybe she was hiding this ability? But Carlos k, because he had her abilities, she would sprout a long tail too with cws on her hands a.
This was bus' sed voyage, and this time there were 17 ships with him in the fleet. The reason there were so many, is that the trip would be dangerous and not all the ships would return from the New World!
The ship Carlos and Isabel chose to sail on was of course the Isabel, named after the Queen, and was a galleon, one of the bigger ships in the fleet. They were the only noblemen on this ship and thus was given the captain's and the and of the ship. Carlos was not a seaman, but was a veteran of many wars with the Ottomans and was thus given and of the ship although he was very young!
His brother, Jose decided to sail on the lead ship, the Santa Maria, where Christopher bus himself captaihe ship ahe fleet.
The first few days were clear skies and smooth sailing, but unfortunately, it would not s the whole trip. Carlos was told that the trip to the new world would take 2 months and 9 days, and if the storm they were entering was going to be the norm, it would not be a pleasant trip at all!
From afar, they could see a storm cloud as far as the eye see, dark and covered with lightning. As they approached, the sea gher and the ships started being tossed all around by the gigantic waves rger than the ships themselves
Isabel hid in the while Carlos scrambled with the crew, trying to keep the ship under trol as the storm battered the ship
Carlos grabbed on to the wheel steering the ship, as it inning wildly with nobody trolling it. He held on to it with his enormous strength, trying to steady the ship, when the spokes on the wheel broke off!
"Damn it" he cursed
Suddenly, as if things could not get any worse, while in the middle of the raging storm, massive tentacles appeared out of the water and was ging on to the ship!
"Kraken!" one of the crewmates yelled as one of the tentacles smashed into the decks, barely missing a few crewmen. The men, already struggling from the storm, all took our arms and began hag at the massive tentacles, which fought back, smashing the masts of the galleon, and whatever was on the decks as the massive creature started climbing on to the ship!
Carlos grabbed a nearby axe and jumped onto oacle, smashing it with his strength, but it could not pee it's skin, the axe snapping instead.
"Damn" he cursed again, and the tentacle moved to smash him
He jumped and saw that the ship was already sinking
In the midst of the heavy rain, he saw Isabel flying in the air, her wings fully opened as she flew in the rain
"Fly to the other ships!" he yelled, pointing at the other ships
"How about you?" she yelled back
"I fly too. I'll meet you ter" Carlos yelled
She nodded and flew off towards the other ships, who were also stu the storm, but not attacked by the kraken
Knowing that she was safe, he titag the tentacles a sword he picked up
But it was no use. Even with his strength, the kraken's tentacles could not be peed by mortal ons.
His strength did cause the kraken to respond, when none of the crew man's ons could get it to even respond
By the time the storm passed, Carlos was drifting with broken wood in calm waters, remnants of the Isabel he was on
Wly, there were no other ships around. He wondered if the other ships made it, but he was drifting aimlessly ier, naked as the drift wood floated
He started paddling, looking at the stars, headi. He used his penis as a propeller, moving through the water faster than any human . He hoped her would bump into the other ships, if they survived
He found that instead of using his penis like a propeller, he could also use it like a pump. His penis sucked in water, then shot it out with great pressure, propelling him forwards, faster than when he used it like a propeller. However, even so, the o was vast and it seemed to be endless as he felt he was getting nowhere, even at his speed.
"This is getting nowhere" he thought as his face ged, his muscur frame ged as he became more feminine. His penis shrinking and iing into his body until he became aical copy of Isabel
Wings sprouted from his/her bad she/he took off into the air in search for the other ships
He flew for hours, but no ship came into sight. However, he spotted a few isnds in the distand started flying towards it
He nded on the shores of the uninhibited isnds, now called the Azores isnds and wandered around in the dark of night, transf bato his male self. As either himself or as Isabel, he had night vision, so he had no problems seeing in the darkness
But the pce was empty, his hope of meeting up with the rest of the expedition vanished
Seeing bats flying in the sky, he transformed into Selina, mentally trolling the bats to scout the isnd
As he did so, he discovered that there was one of the ships in the fleet he was in, docked oher side of the isnd!
He flew into the air, heading for the ship and nded in the sand nearby, transf baself before approag the ship
"Ho! Which ship is this?" he called out
"Who goes there?" a sailor asked iurn, uo see Carlos in the dark
"I am Carlos Benitez, and I am a survivor from the Isabel" Carlos said
"The Isabel? I thought it sank" he said
"It did. I am possibly the lone survivor" Carlos said
"You swam from there?" the sailor asked
"Drifted on wood in the currents" Carlos said
"Well.. that's lucky. I am Antonio and this is the Valentina" the sailor said as he csped hands with Carlos
"Did you see what happeo the other ships?" Carlos asked
"I don't knoerished, but I think a few ships survived. We were taking water, so we docked on this isnd to look for wood for repairs" Antonio said
"That is good to hear that some survived" Carlos said
"Er.. do you need clothes?" Antonio asked, seeing that Carlos was naked
"Yes, if you would be so kind" Carlos said
Carlos helped with the repairs of the Valentina over the week or so
The crew of the Valentina found that Carlos was helpful, being able to lift logs on his own, and was hard w too
The repairs went faster than everyohought ossible and within weeks, the Valenti sail again to the new world
Carlos hoped that Isabel was alright, and hoped that whichever ship she was on would arrive safely
Unknown to Carlos, Isabel was on the Santa Maria with bus and Rafael, and had blown south and was currently on the ary Isnds, off the coast of Africa!
Carlos and the Valentina didn't know this and simply headed west, where the new world was
They sailed for a month, without meeting any other ships. All they saw was even more o which seemed endless
"Ship ahoy" a sailor on the mast yelled
"Where?" the captain took our his looking gss and poi at the distance
Carlos rushed to the deck, missing Isabel greatly and hoping it was on the ship in the distance
"I don't... reize the ship. Sail closer towards it" the captain said
It took 20 minutes before they got close, and the captain was aghast when he saw the ship nearby
It was ragged, broken and it's sails were all torn. It was a ruined viking ship
"What is that?" he asked, looking through his looking gss
The ship seemed to be.. floating in the sky?
"Turn around!" the captain suddenly shouted, seeing rotting skeletons on board the other ship, their ons drawn and ready to board the Valentina
Suddenly, the other ship's ons fired and the crew of the Valentina scrambled, not expeg to be attacked
The ghost ship turned and charged, aiming to ram the Valentina
Carlos ran on the ded with a mighty leap, jumped onto the ghost ship before it could ram into the Valentina
He instantly transformed into Artemis, swiping aside a skeleton and taking it's on
He impaled oh his sword, but found that it only passed through him, the sword barely hitting anything
Several more skeleton's attacked him/her and he kicked them, smashing a nearby skeleton's bones and pig up a battle axe
"Artemis of Carpanthia! We meet again" the skeletal captain said in a ghostly voice
As Artemis, Carlos seemed to uand the viking tongue and responded
"You know me?" he asked in Artemis' voice
"Ah...I have lost weight sihen. I was once Skarsburg the Brutal. I would ask, how do you look the same after 50 years?" the skeleton asked and drew his sword
"My beauty secrets are my own. It's too te for you to retain your youth" Carlos teased
Suddenly, he transformed to Fang, his muscles expandih his skin to bee a hairless werewolf, ripping off all his clothes
"A.. berserker!" Skarsburg gasped as Carlos ripped through the many skeletons surrounding him
In his werewolf form, he took on all the skeletons on the ship. The skeletons were not any strohan a man, only they were harder to defeat as even a severed limb could still be trolled and fight even wheached
But that did not matter as Carlos ripped through them, not leaving any usable bones survive, crushing any that came close with his fangs and cws
Seeing the Valenti away, he transformed to Selina while fighting, then flying after the Valentina, nding safely on board
He turned back to his usual self in a moment, and he was weled by the crew on board
The skeleton ship watched from a dista's crew rec as their bones fused back together from the smashed bits Carlos left them
--
Half a month ter, they safely arrived at an isnd in the middle of nowhere. But they had been at sea for more than a month, and they o get on nd
Unknown to them, they had nded on Bermuda
Like the Azores, they found no indigenous natives on the isnd and wondered if the stories Christopher bus told them of the natives was true or not.
Regardless, they nded and found an isnd paradise, with beautiful beaches and pristine sand. Yet, they hadn't found any other ships from their fleet and wondered if anyone else survived.
Carlos had wondered over the months whether it was wise to join this expedition or not, as he missed his wife and wondered how she was
A few of the crew members had decided to stay and wouldn't tiheir journey, including Antonio who found Carlos on the first isnd.
