Aria halted as she heard the orders to retreat. She tried making her way back to the ship, but her current opponent was rather serious about stopping her. Letting out an aggravated sigh, she spun out of his grasp, and prepared to fight. Just as she was about to deliver a blow to his ribs, something hit him in the face, exploding all over in a pinkish orange mush. Aria blinked, surprised. Was that an... apricot?! Turning her head, she looked over at Simnia. The dwarf was holding up more of the fruit, aiming and throwing it at the men. "Get to the ship, Strawberry!" Aria grinned. [i] Strawberry, huh? Well, that's the kinds nickname I've ever had. [/i] She turned, sprinting over to the ship and jumping up gracefully. She grabbed onto the railing, extending her arm out to help the woman who had helped her. She grabbed Simnia's arm and pulled her up onto the ship. "'Ello again. Thanks for the help." Aria pushed her hair out of her face. No one had ever helped her in a fight before other than her father, but he was gone. Gone. The word was cold, and it made her shiver before cursing herself. "Everyone is on board I think, everyone except... Ey! C'mon captain, let's go!" She shouted out, worried. He was her captain, and the crew couldn't go without one. He was also the only person she had ever worked for that seemed decent. If you considered her previous life an occupation. She drew another dagger, aiming it carefully. It landed in one of the men's elbow. [i] Bulls eye![/i] She grinned again, waiting for the rest to board.
