Do you suppose he was a pirate? Or maybe he was an explorer trying to map all the wizarding waters?” Or was there already a map of such thing? Kurumi wasn’t sure.

Walking down a small flight of stairs and noticing a large door, Kurumi pointed to it and looked over her shoulder at Eino. “Do you suppose that’s it?” she asked. “I once saw a movie where some ponies were trying to tickle a very large spider with some sort of plant. It has a long and narrow stem and the tip of it is brown and fluffy,” Kurumi explained starching the back of her head nervously. “Perhaps there is something in here that we can use to try and tickle the giant squid to let the boat go? Then we can finish the mission that the captain and his crew couldn’t…

Unless…they were still on the boat as ghosts! Kurumi’s face when white as a sheet as she reached out for the door’s handle. “Y-Y-You don’t suppose this boat is…is…is…cursed do you?
Go down? What if they got locked down there and couldn't get out, or worst lost track of time and missed their classes!? "Of course he was a pirate!" Eino said decisively but followed Kurumi down the stairs rather cowardly. "He was probably looking for a treasure." All pirates did, right? That was their job. Maybe there was a treasure somewhere in the lake, or better yet, in Hogwarts. There were many secrets about the castle, so why not a long lost treasure. Or perhaps the treasure was something they already knew like Ravenclaw's diadem or Gryffindor's sword.

He continued to follow Kurumi until they finally reached a room she supposed to be the captain's cabin. Eino shrugged in response. He had never seen one other than in a few illustrated books and read about one in one particular book, but he wasn't sure of those descriptions were accurate, so he couldn't tell. Then she started talking about ponies and spiders and tickling sticks. Eino raised one eyebrow and tried to understand what she had just said but he couldn't. He had never seen such thing, and hoped never to! "Perhaps..." He said doubly, and hoping there wouldn't be one, and if there was that they wouldn't find it. "And what mission is that? Maybe we can find some clues as to what they were doing in the cabin? Maybe they kept a journal or a map." Einos suggested as he tried to push the door open, but it was locked. He took out his wand and performed the unlocking charm but there was so unlocking sound and when he tried to open it he couldn't. "Hmmm..." That could only mean one thing. "The ship is magical... Or at least are is some sort of magic on it." That might have been very obvious, but it probably answered Kurumi's next question. "Probably."
