Part Five of: Pirate Ships and Rusty Fingertips

“No. It has to end here.” Pip entered the hallway. She gave a two finger salute to Sasha. Moments later, an explosion erupted through the airship’s hull. A cable emerged through flame and smoke. Once secured, the cable pulled Pip out, allowing her to stand on the ship’s side. Pip reached into a cargo-pocket in her suspenders. A gleaming sapphire rested in her fingers. Placing it back in her pocket, she released the cable attached to her new limb. Pip plummeted until a single-seated Cloudrifter passed, swooping her up. Once seated, she took off, no longer looking back for Sasha.
