"The trip will be a little over a week Captain. According to the map, the island's pretty far." Danny reported the next morning. The captain merely nodded and casually walked along the edge of the ship, easily maintaining her balance. She held her new sword in hand, tossing it between each hand. She knew how to use swords, not as well Alicia or Ray, but she could always practice. Runali knew how to handle most weapons, but she found she was no good at using guns, and she could only survive so long with a sword. Come to think of it, before Danny arrived Runali just followed wherever the wind took them. And obviously, she was no where near as amazing as the chef on board.
The boat rocked and she grabbed onto a rope near her. She looked over at her crew on deck and smiled lightly. Even though she wasn't good at those things, that's what she had her friends for. And they were pretty good at what they did. She hopped down back onto the deck and continued on with day.
The crew went about their merry way. For three days they sailed peacefully. During one of those days, the captain got Alicia and Ray to teach her a little more about sword fighting, mainly because there was nothing to do. Curious enough, she did occasionally peek to see what Luro was doing with all the metal pieces around. Runali never asked, not wanting to break his concentration. Instead she would watch for a few moments and then disappear.
On the fourth night, after everyone had enjoyed another meal, Runali called watch for the night. Though she doubted anything would happen.
In such a short amount of time, Runali's peaceful doze on the deck turned into one less than pleasant. The moon disappeared and it grew dark instantly. The sound of thunder wasn't far away either. Soon enough, heavy rain started to pour and the waves grew more violent, causing the Coral Pearl to teeter back and forth dangerously. The captain was soaked by rain water, and soon enough, ocean water too. "Danny! What happened to our course?!" The captain yelled over the crashing waves and the roaring downpour. Danny had already rushed out of her room when she noticed her compass going on the fritz. She hurried to the helm of the ship to steer them on a safer course.
"I have no idea! This weather came out of nowhere!" She struggled against the waves, and at one point, the ship leaned so far over to the right, anything not bolted down started to slide.
"Make sure everything is secured!" The captain yelled out and held on to the side of the ship when it leaned again. She looked up at the sails and then pointed. "We need those tied so they don't rip!" She helped where she could and looked up at the sky. Nothing but dark clouds and lightning pierced the sky.
Cuttersbury: Drych Lake Spa- Hot Springs
"Used to?" Nani scoffed and crossed her arms. With a grin she retorted, "I still am! But I can't deny you on the love of water." She took a step forward, only to look pause and look back. "Oh yeah, the old timer." Nani spun on her heel and went back to the door she entered in. The pirate poked her head out and looked out the door. "Oi, Gramps! You wouldn't mind me postponing that massage right? I think I'll stick around here for a bit! Besides, afterward I'm sure they'd all find that a good idea!" Despite asking, she didn't really give the guy time to answer. She saluted and disappeared back into the Hot Springs.
Somewhere, there was a place to- "Aha!" Nani slid her way to the changing room and stripped down and grabbed a towel to walk her way back to the springs. The bandana around her head came off, causing her hair to fall over her eyes, which in turn was part of the reason she wore it. And not just because it looked cool.
"Best. Mission. Ever." Each word caused the pirate to slide further into the spring until she was neck deep and sitting with the others. "Weeee should come back here. All the time." Nani commented and looked up as Cap continued to whistle a tune, despite the odd antics of the Guilders who were suppose to be relaxing.
"As I always say, work like a captain and play like a pirate."
Enasi's voice faded and he looked as attention went to Seishu. He gave a sympathetic look, but stayed quiet for the most part. Seishu had been gone far too long from his home and he could only imagine how much he hurt because of it. Rue looked down at the accomplishment and insisted that the guardian did a decent job. After all, it was better than nothing and Enasi had not complained about it. Though Rue wasn't sure if he could complain. His guardian had been drugged and had been pretty happy since he woke up.
Enasi caught sight of a figure swimming away and he figured it was Tyar. The guardian sighed and looked over at Rue and Seishu. "Ohh, yes. It's very special. In fact, not many have ever had that gift. I'm not sure even many in the past have had it." By past, he meant in the time the guardians before him and Seishu reigned over the realms. Rue was still confused about this 'gift' they were talking about, but he did smile a little knowing how special it was. "Still it's dangerous, so I'd appreciate if you not fly at the speed of light okay? At least unless necessary." Rue nodded quietly and continued to sit by Enasi's side. The guardian's eyes closed and he hummed softly. It was the same song he had sang when they were in Their World.
Rue smiled and sat comfortably, occasionally looking at Seishu trying to spot any changes in his expression. It was obvious how much he wanted to be home to help his minions, and it was even more obvious how much it hurt that he couldn't. At least not right now. Rue couldn't do much to help him though. All Rue could do was hope and pray for it to all end with them safe.

Tyar had swam through the water until it got to the end of the lake. It noticed a passage that led to the surface. Changing forms, Tyar followed the passage, carefully easing the boulder that hid the exit. When it looked around the area was completely empty and utterly silent. Back in its shadowy form, Tyar took time to scan the area to be sure. With the guardians injured and the dream minion sticking out like a sore thumb, it could never be too careful.
Finally reassured, Tyar slipped back into the hidden passageway and hurried to return to report to his guardian and the others about the discovery. It made sure the passage was safe by flying through, realizing that they would not plan on going through the water like it had done. Flying at the moment would probably the best way of transport as well considering walking would be too slow.

"Two items? I mean one is fair enough considering we need all of them to get home. And I can't even have the crazy one's pole! What a rip off..." Ace huffed and shrugged. She watched Gary have a hissy fit and sipped the beverage she had in order to hide the devious smirk. Well, fine. If she couldn't take it, then there would be fun times messing with her- if the deal was set.
Ace listened to the others and watched as Inadi got riled up. It made her wonder what he had forgotten... Then she looked at all of her friends. What had they forgotten? Family? Friends? Irreplaceable childhood memories? It was about time they got home so they could recover those memories they lost. And Ace didn't want to be a bunny guard. If anything, she would have much rather been a tiger. Those were more threatening than bunnies. She smiled when Riley spoke and then chimed in. "We'll all be giving you hell. May or may not be if you try something though." She mumbled the last part before eating a brownie.
"If you're not going to give us the items, you could at least show us that you have them and you're not lying. You could've given them up or lost them or something... Other than that, I suppose you can keep your two items." Ace huffed. "Still a rip off. No real reason you need two. One would still prevent us from leaving."
She tapped the bill of her hat and looked at Numair and leaned forward with her hand extended. "Alright. Fine. You guys get two items and we keep the rest. But we all work together in order to get home before we get turned into pets. At the slightest moment of betrayal, we obviously will not hesitate to raise chaos. And vice versa. Deal?" She waited for him to shake her hand and then sat back when he did.
She looked over at C again. "Till New Years Eve, eh? Hmph..." Ace stretched and looked around the table. "Well obviously, we've come to a compromise. There's some sort of alliance here.. So if we have till then, why are we still sitting here? We've got places to be and things to collect." Normally, she would've jumped up and ushered everyone out, but she didn't know what was next on the list nor where to find it, so she waited.
"Still woulda been a good idea to at least tell us this beforehand...but whatever. What's done is done."
Cuttersbury: Drych Lake Spa- Hot Springs
Jett was all for a massage. Man, was he really that clueless about what they were? Well, no matter. The trio had a new mission at hand. Once they figured out who screamed for their life, then they could carry out the rest of the day. She followed the two males towards the spa, slightly surprised that Gramps was a little faster than he looked.
She watched as Jett sprinted off. "That guy is gonna fall. He's going to slip and smack right into something. And he's going to fall." She spoke to no one in particular, but it was loud enough for Gramps to hear. Cap squawked when Jett slid to a stop. Nani, slightly disappointed, looked at the bird. "Aw man, he didn't fall." She laughed softly and stood in front of the doors.
"Well if course you can't go in there! It's for laaaddiiiiess. What makes you think it was a lass anyway? Coulda been one of the guys that screamed, never know." She laughed a bit. "Go check it out will ya?" She pointed to the sign then looked between the two males. "Never fear, the pirate captain will make sure everything is fine and dandy." She pushed the door open and Captain flew inside, deciding to perch high up on the wall that separated the two hot springs.
"Oi! Anyone in need of saving? We heard a scream and decided to...see if there was someone being attacked." Her attention turned to the rather serene looking hot springs. "This place looks nice..." She noticed everyone else seemingly relaxed as well.
Oh kay! Now I will post! Sorry for the hold up.
The deed is done.

Ooh, I'll have a post up. after I finish mah cereal
Just as he was about to sit back, he was suddenly grabbed and turned. He let out a small yelp as his arm was pulled behind his back quite forcefully. "Ow. . ." Before he could say anything else, Akito was gone. Hiro rubbed his shoulder and then his wrist before standing up. The servant had saw what happened and his eyes widened as he rushed over to the prince.
"Your highness! Are you okay? Do you need me to fetch the Emperor? Or a medic?" He carefully reached out, but hesitated in grabbing his arm to check. The prince held his arm out and with the little medical knowledge the servant did have, he checked to make sure nothing was broken. "It feels fine. . . But-"
"It's fine. It's just a little sore, but that will wear off. It's okay, I promise. . . It was probably just an accident." The prince stopped rubbing his shoulder and looked in the direction Akito went in. "He's fast."
"An accident?!"
Before the servant could say anything else, Hironori looked at him. "Tell the my father that I'll be running a bit late. No, don't tell him what happened. You can just say Akito ran off. . . Because he got nervous or something. No need getting anyone else involved okay? Akito is probably punishing himself enough." The servant bowed and went to deliver the message. He sighed and walked off in the direction Akito went. Despite having such a large home, he felt the shorter male would have more than likely hid outside. After all, he didn't feel comfortable anywhere else besides the training grounds. . . "Maybe that's where he went."
Hironori picked up his pace until he made it into the training room. 'Not here?' "Hm. . " He looked around and then went outside. Still, there was no one in sight. With a slight huff, he turned and caught the attention of a few servants. "Have you seen Akito anywhere?" Two of them shook their heads and apologized, but the third spoke up.
"He ran to the training grounds not too long ago your highness. He couldn't have came back in without anyone noticing. . . After all, there are many servants here." She bowed afterward and the the waited for his response.
"Hm. . . You don't think he went off the grounds do you?"
"It's likely, but I don't suggest you going out alone. It's dangerous."
"Don't worry. You the will know where I am. And if I don't return within the hour. . . Or at least twenty minutes you can send servants to find me." He seemed satisfied with the idea and walked off. The servants gave nervous glances towards each other but complied with his wishes. One planned to stay behind in the training area and wait out those twenty minutes just to be sure. She watched as the prince moved off the grounds and pauses at the thick forest.
"Akito?" He called out to the trees. He didn't hear anything so he ended up moving further. He realized that the deeper through the forest he went, the darker it became. A small orb grew in his hand, producing a bright light in order for him to see. However, there was still nothing but trees and it was eerily quiet as well. "Akito? If you're going to panic and run away, do you mind just hiding in the palace?" He tugged his robe off a low branch but continued on. He looked back, hoping that straight ahead would be the direction to get back home. It might have even been a good idea to turn around at this point consisting he had no idea where he was.
"You're not going to get in any trouble Akito. I'm sure it was just an accident. And it's very impolite to keep people waiting when they called for a meal. . ." Hironori sighed and turned around, slowly heading back towards the way he came- or at least hoped it was the way he came. The prince moved slow to give Akito the chance if he was there, and he was also trying to find familiarity in the darkness, which wasn't going so well. So, he just kept going straight.

Aoba listened and nodded at his first statement. "Mhm, I'm a fallen angel." He grew quiet again to let Homura speak. The next thing made Aoba smile sheepishly. "Different? Yeah, I do believe I have discovered that." He blushed lightly at being called special and unique. He was none of those things, at least he didn't think so, but somehow a blind demon thought otherwise. He looked down shyly, not knowing what to say, but it soon turned into more curiosity as he spoke of examinations. His eyes went to Kuro in a slightly concerned fashion. But the fallen angel relaxed almost instantly, not feeling anything to worry about.
The last thing Aoba wanted was to be used as a test subject. He doubted that would happen, but there was no point in not worrying about it. The thoughts faded before they could go off on a tangent and cause him to be unfocused. He stepped back as Dani moved out of the way to avoid his wings and watched Homura with a curious gaze. The fallen angel involuntarily flinched when the blind demon brought his hand up. Both recoiled from the other's movements as if they were both afraid of each other. "Up to me? What exactly. . ." He shuffled and looked at the hand that was out along with those white eyes. 'He's asking if he could touch? Of course. He does have to use his other senses.' Aoba gave a small nod and inched forward. His hand slowly reached up to Homura's, careful not to frighten him or anything.
Aoba's eyes never left Homura, wondering what expression he would have from the interaction, and still being a little cautious because he was a demon. The fallen angel guided Homura's hand up to his cheek and pressed it there gently. With a nod, he slowly let's go and lets Homura touch his face. He's tense at first, being so close to the demon, but slowly and surely he relaxed. Aoba put his hands behind him, fiddling with his wings and waiting for him to be done.
Dani had peered over the loft to watch older brother. He 'hmphed' finding it unfair that he wasn't allowed to touch the angel until 'forever' later. His nails scratched the wood he rested on before he yawned and got bored of them.
