Daichi looked the bull over carefully as Dawn offered to trade her pistol, it was holding a large bag and his eye flicked over them as if he was trying to determine the worth of their gear, this bull-man was definitely a trader of sorts or a merchant, he could tell he dealt with many as a Wako, a trader meant other tribes or clans. as he was thinking a girl suddenly darted past the pirates and hid behind the minotaur, she looked sad or scared, especially of Daichi's rifle, she must have encountered other before, as he was looking at her he noticed the scar on her neck, poor girl, he also noticed...a gold bracelet? A trader and a girl with a gold bracelet, oh dear...this "treasure" might be a bit more complicated than they thought...

'If Clarisse would be slow to react, Mint would take the chance to withdraw further into the forest' ... is what the little fairy thought to herself until something completely unexpected, at least for her, happened. ' Old man Fotis...?? Why is he here now of all times?? I know he's a kind of a merchant, but this is a little dangerous, even for him...!' The little fairy thought, following that was an... unexpected surprisingly legitimate trade offer from the pirates. 'The treasure, they said...? Don't they know they would die if they take it?' Mint thought, not even knowing what they offered in return, as she was not focused on getting a good view at that moment. ... that and she hoped Fotis didn't mind her calling him 'old man', even though she never really said that to him directly.

Zvezdan

As the body started to sink he came closer to it watching it drop deeper. Air bubbles started to leave the mans lips. He could just live him to drown, like he intended... At this point the jelly fish scattered away. The body softly fall on the sea floor......but if they search revenge for the death I would set the girls in great danger... His farms went around the pirate and swimming fast he reached the surface and quite quickly the beach too.

No one was on it lucky, he pulled himself and the pirate body beside the row board that was resting on the sand. Water dripping from his tail and hair he pulled the man fully out of the water. Pressing the chest a few times to make him splutter the salty sea water. Was he starting to wake up? Zvezdan leaned over him and his voice used to sing his spell he hum singed sending a shiver of calm and pleasant feeling over the nearly drowning man. Take your friends and leave quick. And zvezdan turned around pushing himself back into the depths of the sea. Hoping the man would do as asked.

Fotis

He smirked a treasure they say. If someone refers that they wanted treasure you could get them to over pay easily. They should have choose their words more wisely. Before he could let any comment at the offered object another of the sea kin appeared, she was scared and that pulled any fatherly string in his body.

He used his big hand and petted gently the top of Eris head who hide behind him. ''Na,na, its fine. '' He all but cooed at her, smiling at her in the fashion that he knew what he was doing. He kneed and urged Eris to climb on his back and hold onto. Turning his attention to the newcomers.
''Treasure you say, That arent cheap. '' He looked at the woman who offered the metal object his face showing his displeasure for the low offer. ''Either way, Follow me if treasure is what you want. '' He said smiling starting walk in the woods path, not too long they were in a clearing several stones scattered around and a old camp fire was in place. He sat down on a big stone offering the pirates the other stones to sit on. ''Let exchange our names for good fortune. I am Fotis.''

Faeya saw Fotis discussing with the visitors. Something about treasure struck her as quite odd. She looked around and decided to go help Fotis with the newcomers. She flew over to where Fotis sat and gracefully landed next to him. Her eyes scanned the newcomers with a friendly and curious smile. "Hello, Fotis and… newcomers. Are you here for something?" She saw Eris and smiled at her, but she then noticed the girl's stance and her protective instincts kicked in. She turned her attention back to the arrivals and Her eyebrow went up, almost as if to say 'what did you do to her?' Though she still looked up at everyone, Faeya was very protective.

These were the words Seth heard as he quickly regained consciousness. He leaned up from the sand a sharp pain shot through his stomach and he began to cough up water. The coughing knocked him on to his back. After the coughing stopped he was breathing somewhat heavily and should slow down a bit. His eyes starred into the endless blue sky as water seeped out the corner of his mouth.

Seth attempted to get up again and was successful. His body still felt uneasy and he should anxiously be resting but he had to catch up with the rest of his crew. He stubbled into a woods like scenery and used the passing trees as support when he walked. "D..Dawn! Daichi!......Ahab!" Seth struggled to shout as he walked. He should be shouting for help. After that jelly fish incident he shouldn't be on his feet traveling in unknown territory.

Speaking of the jelly fish incident, Seth couldn't stop thinking about how unnatural the appearance of the jelly fishes were. Normally they aren't hostile but what happened with Seth was unquestionably hostile. What confused him the most was how did he get out of the water. Whatever saved him must have something out for him and in crew. Seth put his mysterious savior aside and continued his blind journey through the woods. He shouted the names of his crews mates again. His voice had a horse tone to it. Hopefully someone will hear his shouts of distress.

Fotis

He smirked a treasure they say. If someone refers that they wanted treasure you could get them to over pay easily. They should have choose their words more wisely. Before he could let any comment at the offered object another of the sea kin appeared, she was scared and that pulled any fatherly string in his body.

He used his big hand and petted gently the top of Eris head who hide behind him. ''Na,na, its fine. '' He all but cooed at her, smiling at her in the fashion that he knew what he was doing. He kneed and urged Eris to climb on his back and hold onto.

Eris had climbed onto the minotaur's back and wrapped her arms and legs around the minotaur and hid her head behind his back. while they walked she looked at the humans and relaxed a small bit but was still extremely scared when she looked over what they had and especially what the lady offered Fotis holding her hand up to her mouth and almost throwing up at the sight of the pistol but held it back... barely. When they reached the old camp she kept holding onto Fotis even when he sat down almost looking as though she she was never gonna let go of him.

Daichi turned and stood still, listening, he thought he heard...Seth?...calling out for them as the group began walking he turned and said "you guys go ahead..." and headed in the direction he thought the sound was coming from, keeping his rifle up, eventually he did come across Seth "Seth? What happened to you?" he asked, Seth looked like he had been breathing nothing but seawater for the past 10 minutes, he was soaked head to toe and had sting marks all over him, Daichi went over and helped him "here, sit for a minute" he said as he eased Seth down against a tree.

Nix had fallen in a cavern by the ocean, the possibility of it being a mermaid lair was a 50/50 chance she yelled out "Can anyone hear me?!" her knee had a large gash and a few bruises on her arms and legs. She was trying to get to the pirate ship, because she felt the need to warn them about the island and its treasure. She had ran so fast without thinking, she fell hard and far down. She was lucky to have a few halves of bread and her flute. She began playing a rather sad tune

Athena saw her chance to leave and took it, She jumped from tree to tree artistically once she got closer to the ocean she noticed a boy who looked as if he had been in a fight with a swarm of jellyfish. 'Lovely' She thought to herself Another male came over to him and helped him sit. She decided to drop down behind the injured one. "Move" She said and pushed the other one aside with a soft nudge and laid her hand over the injured boy, creating a bright light all the markings of the stings were slowly erasing and he looked less sickly when she stopped. When she stopped she ran off to the beach and jumped in, instantly shifting into a mermaid.

Dawn Followed the minotaur and gave a half smile to the scared girl, and the other one known as faeya. Her eyes darted around before she sat on the stone "Why do you think this is Cheap I can assure you it is not" She said to him and smiled when he asked for the names "I am Dawn, First mate" She said not knowing if he even knew what that meant. Her eyes suddenly were glued to the girl on the minotaurs back, unusual looking eyes and facial features not that of a normal human she smirked and held up the gun and showed her the barrel of it was empty then set it down. "Don't worry young one" she said and pulled her attention back to the minotaur

Zvezdan

Had a frown on his face, he tried to find eris or clariss but neither were around the typical places. He really wished to have someone with him at this moment. The weird bite on his hair and the person he gave warning too, were all too fresh and making him feel fear and insecure. He crossed his hands. A small worry that those two ended up walking on land to satisfy their curiosity was starting to creep on him. There were still places he didnt check. Like those 'secret' corners of the ocean ever of them enjoyed finding and call it their own. Following a memory of when he saw one of the mermaids swim in a system of under water caves he quickly swam to the cave opening and into it. He hoped they all were there together, he didnt worry about Athena at the moment as he was sure the tribe of the Minotaur wouldnt let any harm come upon them.

It was the melody that guided him the last few turns to reach a cavern. Well.....that wasnt the girl he hoped to find here. He silently watched from underwater listening to the music she played. Only when she stopped for a brief moment he broke the surface and watched her with a curious eyebrow raised. He saw her with the other fairies around but couldnt place a name on her.

Fotis

He gave a nod of welcome when Faeya arrived and greeted him. He wondered briefly if the elf folk would attempt and interact with this newcomers. His attention shifting back to the task on hand. His tail petting eris back even tickling her a bit to cheer her up as she clung to his back for something that he felt like was great fear. He will be more cautious.

"Why do you think this is Cheap I can assure you it is not" Fotis smirked knowingly. He didnt knew the exact prize of it the exact worth but it was surely not enough, mostly it was their first offer and first offers were always a drastic underpay for the goods. "I am Dawn, First mate"
He didnt know what first mate mean but he assumed it was similar to first chef a leader. And the behavior of the woman was speaking in pro for it.
''Well, if you think thats enough for a treasure may I ask what you want? Maybe treasure doesnt mean the same thing to your kin and mine. If you ask my mother she would tell you that the greatest treasure of our home are the healing herbs. For that treasure that would be enough indeed.'' He knew about the tales of the treasure and its curse to lead to death to anyone who took it away. Each tribe telling the tale just a bit different, but in the end it was telling the same thing. As a trader he wanted to see what they own, how much he could take from them, as a Minotaur he wanted to know where they stand. Were they searching a way to die? Or were just plain greedy.

Daichi wondered who the girl was as she jumped into the water and disappeared, whatever she did seemed to help Seth and for that he thanked her, he knelt down next to Seth "Seth, are you okay?, what happened?" he asked as he looked seth over again to see if there were any injuries left.

Seth smiled as a familiar voice could be heard coming closer towards him. From what he could tell it might of been Daichi. His eyes site was not in the best shape so he didn't trust as of now. As the helpful mestrious voice asked if he was okay Seth frowned and said. "I had better days..." He leaned against a tree with the help from Daichi and took a deep breathe. Seth was about to finally have a successful moment to rest until a another presence was felt behind him.

Seth tried to ask who was there but his throat was in serious pain. As he heard the foot steps of the stranger become closer he attempted to move but to no avail was unable to get up. Soon he felt a warm sensation fell his body and attend to the countless bruises on his body. His breathing receded back to a normal rate and Seth looked healthier. The sudden change from sickness to healthiness cause him to cough a lot but it stopped soon.

Seth quickly opened his eyes but closed them seconds after. The sun raise stunned his eyes and he opened them slowly again adjusting to the light. He turned and looked in every direction as if he lost something. "W...what was that?" Seth asked looking at Daichi. He stood up slowly with the help of the tree. His body was healed, he just had to adapt to the sudden change. He heard the question Daichi asked him but didn't want to answer. Instead he said "We.....should catch back up with Ahab and Dawn." When he mentioned them the thought of that mysterious voice he heard before he washed up upon shore came back into his head. He decided to put it aside for now and wait until he was reunited with the rest of his crew mates.

Alex must have had a really, really deep sleep. He awoke upon the ship he was contracted to so no change there. Alex got out of bed and strapped his two katanas to his waist before leaving the room. Sunlight burst through the room and into his eyes as soon as he opened the door. Hey! Looks like we reached land. Alex jogged over to the side of the ship facing the island, it was very tropical and quite beautiful in a sense. Alex vaulted over the side and rolled when he hit the ground. When he stood up he scanned everywhere, looking for any sign of his crewmates. "Now where the hell have they gone?" He asked himself.

After waiting for a while and watching what the pirates actually did, Mint decided that it was about time she quit that hiding game and actually know more about the newcomers. "Sorry." She said, flying away from her hiding spot so she could come from behind Fotis, and face those pirates. After all, surprising those newcomers from behind wasn't a good idea, especially with their... quite mysterious weapons, at least from Mint's point of view. She did know about swords, but those... metal sticks with a hole in them, she couldn't really identify those, no matter how much she looked at them. "Hey, Fotis!" Mint called, waving as she flew towards him. "Hello to you too." She said with a little smile as she landed, not really remembering the mermaid's name at the moment. "So you must be the newcomers." Mind said with a straight face, trying not to look too suspicious, even though she was from one side excited, and from the other side a bit scared.

Faeya glanced at Mint and become much more protective. Her eyebrows furrowed at the young woman. "What-what do you want?" Her eyes went to the other men and she bit her bottom lip nervously. She knew some would want their abilities for their own benefit. It was, of course, something they could not do. She looked at the girl again and noticed the greedy glint in her eye. It was in all of their eyes, but also adventure and experience. As if they haven't lived their entire life on one island like her.

"Hello?" Alex called out. "Anybody?" He yelled again. Alex drew one of his katanas, he didn't know what was on this island. He decided to go left from the side of the boat and walk the perimeter of this side. Until he found someone or something he would carry on and periodically call out for his crewmates.

Nix had stopped playing because she ran out of breath and looked over to where a merman had came up from the water "Well hello" She said and put her flute away and kindly stared at the Merman "My name is nix.. Can i ride you to shore?" She said softly thinking it wise to ask instead of assume. Her eyes were a mix of unusual colors brown and yellow with a hint of green, None of the other fairies had eyes like her. SHe was special in more ways than one, If he had recognized her hed know she was a fairy the one fairy who never grew wings.

Dawn stood up and crossed her arms "We want treasure! Gold, rubies, gems! That is what we want! Not silly herbs or potions nothing of that sort" She said all too hastily her body language was clear as day ready to fight She looked at her crew and back at the minotaur confidently.

Athena swam far out into the ocean to her favorite spot once there she was almost and completly surrounded by sharks, She liked talking to them and decided once these pirtes think they have won she will use the sharks to eat them and save the day. But for now she was talking to them and their children, relaxing watching them feed was incredible.

Alex turned around to a voice, a women with brown and yellow eyes with some sort of greensish tinge. He didn't know if she was talking to him so he pointed to himself in a questioning way, just in case.

Faeya crossed her arms in an annoyed way. "You are quite the loud one aren't you?" She sighed softly, trying to calm herself down. A slight breeze started to swirl around her and she knew if she got any more annoyed then someone would get injured. Faeya glanced up at Dawn once again and she said in a calm voice "treasure to you is very different than treasure to us, so your shouting is very unnecessary and unnerving. Please reframe from doing such again." She glanced up at Fotis then back at the group- "as for your 'treasure', we will consider your request. For the time being, would you like to enjoy what the island has to offer?"

All she wanted was to keep the peace. That was all. Hopefully nothing more came from it.

Zvezdan tilted his head for a brief second. "My name is nix.. Can i ride you to shore?" Nix looked at him with eyes that reminded Zvezdan of the inside of a peril shell with the gentle swirl of color. ''Got stuck?'' It was probably so not wanting to add to the fairy worries with his own he smiled coming closer to the stone edge and pulled himself a bit out of the water. Enough to sit with his back towards her. So she could grab on him. ''Any specific spit you wish me to go on the shore? ''

Fotis was silence only giving a nod of acknowledged to his friends who came to observe and apparently help him out. The outburst of the first mate made him grin a bit. He suppressed a chuckle at how Faeya handled the situation, giving her a nod of knowing to her when she glanced over him. He was more than aware of the stance Dawn was having. He reached his hand behind to pet calmly the sea kin still sticking on his back. ''Shiny stones are treasure to you? Fascinating fascinating. For something like that hm.... '' He caressed his chin, standing up. '' There is lot we have to talk about before we make offers of trades, understanding is key. Faeya what would you recommend of the pleasures of our island for our guest to enjoy themselves?'' Standing now he felt surer about stopping any attack of those people as the stance didnt let him a peace of mind. His eyes moved to the woods around them.
