So when I write, I'll write.
For the rare times when I write. *Laugh*

Prompt: use all the following words in a poem or a prose:
buoy tears waves adrift lighthouse sirens port lost

When I woke up, I was sitting on top of my favourite rubber duckling, Diggy. Diggy was huge, easily the size of a cruise ship. I didn't understand why. Diggy had always been an average sized rubber duckling. Small and usually fit in the palm of of my hand. But somehow it was very sensible that she was so big. Very logical. Just like the rest of our situation.

We were adrift in the middle of a vast ocean. Huge waves crashing against poor Diggy as she tried to protect me. She put a protective wing to shield me from all the water and tried her best to follow the directions of the lighthouse and the wailing sirens. Wait a minute... Diggy was alive? And with a conciousness? Who knew my rubber duck had super powers like Antman, could grow in size and was actually really smart? Like, she wasn't an inanimate object! She was like a ninja! That was so cool!

Maybe she was a secret agent of sorts. Her mission was to protect me from some really powerful villain who needed me to take over the world. Maybe I was, like, really special! And that why all this protection for me. Maybe I was a lost Princess and had to be kept safe and secure from all evil. Hmmm, this was the most logical explanation for my very reasonable situation.

Suddenly Diggy asked me,"Can you see the buoy, Zia? There should be a port near it. I can't see very, so you'll have to steer me." Suddenly, from the back of Diggy's huge neck, a steering wheel appeared. Awesome!

"Sure Diggy! I'll steer us to safety!" I took the wheel and began to steer, but suddenly, out of nowhere, a giant Pikachu came from the sky, landed on Diggy and zapped her.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!! Diggy, you can't leave me!" I cried, tears flooding my vision as poor Diggy deflated rapidly.

"Protect...yourself...", She muttered her final words as she frowned into the sea.

Next thing I knew, I was on concrete grind and was facing Ash and his favourite Pokémon, Pikachu. Of course he was the one who wanted to hunt me down. I never liked Pokémon and especially hated his character in the series. Of course he hates me! Before I could explain myself to him, his stupid Pikachu zapped me and I fainted.

The next time I woke up, I was in my bed with my friend Zack at my side.
I sat up groggily, wondering why I had last night's clothes on.

Zack grinned widely at me. "You were hilarious last night! You got so drunk you went and sat in Josh yellow Ferrari and started calling it Diggy. Then when we got you off the roof of the car, you started crushing so hard and yelling at Mindy's Golden Retriever, calling the dog Pikachu and calling Mindy Ash. I've never liked you more!" He grinned hysterically and proceeded to show me a video of my adventures.

Now that made sense.

As Ally got ready to finally sleep, she heard a sharp tap on the window at her bedside. Startled yet focused, she carefully lifted the edge of the curtain. Much to her surprise, she saw a huge black eyeball, certainly not human, staring back at her. Mortified, she stumbled backwards.

Was the prophecy true? The Koryole apocolyse was really going to happen? And if yes, then that meant...

The window opened slightly and a raspy but sharp voice came through it. "Ms. Ally, may I come in?"
A disgusting, humanoid creature looked at her from outside the window. A Gorgoyle.

"Come in.", Said Ally, more composed now. Although Ally never really wanted to believe her Grandma, an ancient oracle's words, she knew that somewhere deep down that it was all real. Oracles couldn't lie.

"You must be Kyle, 'the brave black monster who'll escort the disbeliever', as the prophecy said." Ally glared at him as he entered.

"That's right. Are you still a disbeliever? You're grandmother says you were always in denial of the devine."

"Can you blame me? I had no proof! Sure, the books I read and my faith in Grandma had me more ready than I expected to be, but knowing how dangerous the devine is, I desperately hoped she was crazy."

"I agree with that semtiment. Sounds like deep down you were always were a believer. That's why you immediately knew who I was. You weren't even afraid of me. Merely startled." Kyle winked.

"Anyways, the devine attacks have begun, just as suspected. The Evil Gods despise Gorgoyles and the fragile mankind. We may stand a chance in protecting Earth and preventing the Koryole apocolyse from happening, but only if we have your all powerful devine blood, Ms.Ally. You're the daughter of Goddess Gaia, Mother of Creation and Gorgod Andrex, the Father of all Gorgoyles. They are both the most powerful beings in the Universe and even a fraction of their combined power at it's full potential would be enough to prevent this. Will you help us, Ms.Ally?", He asked, gazing into her eyes.

"Quit calling me Ms.Ally. I'll help, but I'm terrified of losing everything and everyone I have with me."

"You'll lose them even if you refuse to help us. We don't stand a chance without you, Ms.All-, uh, I mean Ally."

"Well, at least I'll die with my family. Kyle, I'm aware of the risks involved and I'm terrified that I'll die alone, Kyle."

Somehow she let her walls down around this "monster". He gazed at her wordlessly for as she spoke and Ally felt like he had a key to her soul.

He smiled in a way that cracked her heart. He was hideous but somehow beautiful. He said quietly, "Ally, I can promise you that you'll never be alone."
