We started screaming and then abruptly stopped as we were slammed hard into the deck of the ship as the Celestia's Prize connected with something roughly. It felt like we were in a fast river of some kind.

I wiped at the windows again as Jim managed to grab a hold of the wheel and steady its course. The ride was smoother, but we were moving unbelievably fast.

The window was partially clear of condensation and both Jim and I were able to see that we were on a fast-moving current of water headed downward at a sharp angle. Up ahead of us the current of water culminated in a big kick up of sea spray where the waters of the above world were connecting with the waters of the interior.

A lot of things were trying to fight their way through within my mind. Such as the reality that this hidden inner world really did exist, but those thoughts were put on the back burner of my consciousness as the kicked up white-water ahead of us got closer and closer.

I left the window to brace against the wheel with Jim. We hit the white-water hard and both of us were thrown from the wheel. I somersaulted through the air to land with a smack against the wall and for a brief moment I was able to open my eyes, but something drove me under and I blacked out against my will.
