Title: Pirates of Aegir
Post by: Telquessewen on February 24, 2004, 07:52:49 PM
Plot: This story takes place in the make up world called Aegir. It is much like our planet Earth, in the respects that it has polar ice caps, land (deserts, forests, mountain ranges). However, more than half of the planet is covered in water. The main populous of Aegir are "humanoid" in nature, except some have gills which enable them to breathe underwater. They are mammals, have two legs, you know what I'm getting at... If you wish, you can be from another planet in the solar system, the look of the alien populous can be created to your liking (hybrids, etc). However, technology has not advanced too far. The only advanced weapons available are early versions of guns (which take forever to load), there are no cars, no airplanes, you get the picture. Most of the planet has magic however. Not the Dragon Ball Z type "oh-look-at-me-I-can-destroy-the-planet-in-one-ki-blast-type" it's all simple based. Think early Sailor Moon powers (in other words, magic attacks can only destroy a couple of people at a time). Other magic consists of healing, etc. You get where I'm going. Basically this is a mix of early technology with magic mixed in.
Our Pirate story takes place during this time. The main Pirate ship is called the Bowfin. The Bowfin was made from the skeleton of a ironwhale. It is a submersible frigate, meaning in can travel underwater much like a submarine. However, unlike a submarine which pushes its way through the water with propellors, the bowfin has two pair of fins and 'swims' while underwater, much like a whale or sea tortoise. When on the surface of the water, the Bowfin can still use it fins for propulsion but usually instead uses its giant sail that's spread between its two angled masts. The masts can pivot, enabling the giant sail to be angled into the wind. They use the sail instead of the fins whenever possible to conserve on glares which power the fins. The stern fins, however, are always used for steering. The underbelly of the frigate has a large bay door from which the whales can pass between the moon pool inside the ship, where whales can rest, get fed and be tended by their owners, and the sea outside the ship. Because of some confusion, I will make this clear. This ship does not fly in the air. It can go completely underwater or on the surface of the water. Hope that clears up some confusion you guys may have had.
The Pirates on the ship do what Pirates do best. They steal, plunder, loot, OH MY ^^! At the current time the crew is plundering shipping lanes, and taking what they please. I'm not exactly sure what will happen from then on out, but I'm sure our lovely teenage imaginations will think up some fun adventurous story. For now, I'm meerley laying out the beginning plot.
If you would like to join, it is probably mandatory that you be a pirate on the Bowfin. If you would like to be on another ship, then please consult me (Tweak) first. If you would like to be a non-pirate, then also talk to me. I'm sure I could figure out a way for you to fit into the plot. That's all for now!
NPC's
Captain Adder ~ Captain of the Bowfin. He has very darkly tanned skin, and a tall muscular build. Adder is very bossy, and can be quite ruthless when he wants to be. The crew respects him, and vice versa.

Mayday sat on the deck of the Bowfin. She squinted her eyes as she surveyed the surface of the ocean. Unfortunately, there were no other ships in sight. As the ship moved along, the waves hit the sides causing ocean spray to hit Mayday. She didn't mind too much. The sun had been beating down on her all day, a little water wouldn't hurt. With that thought she began to think how wonderful it would be to go for a swim. Suddenly her wish was met. The wind began to die down, causing the ship to stop.
"What's goin' on?" Mayday asked the Captain.
"Damn winds," he spat, "we're stuck in the doldrums for a day or so. Nothin' to do but sit around..."
"Maybe a ship will come by?" Mayday suggested. "Ne'ways, I'm goin' for a swim. Be back in a bit."
Mayday threw off her cloak, and dived down into the water below.
"She is such a fish," the Captain mumbled to himself. |

Sophia Inara stood at the railing at the starboard side of the ship looking over. Her chestnut brown hair, once alive with energy of the wind now lay limply at her shoulders. She watched the waves splash against the side of the ship in quiet contemplation. Stuck in the middle of the sea, wind abandoning the ship to lethargic doldrums. Most around the ship took advantage of the respite by relaxing and casually carrying about business on the ship. She felt them shy away from her though, like a scarecrow perched on the side of the ship. She stared at the water again, with renewed conviction. The rest of the crew stared in wonder as her hair shifted color, darkening until it stood out like a beacon among the bright sky. A tear ran down her pale face.
Who would stop me if I decided to jump. And if I started to sink, would any of them be there to help me? And would they even bother to look for me before the wind carried the ship off again? No they wouldn’t.
Inara felt her body move closer and closer to the edge, until she was practically hanging off it, her tears dropping down into the great body of water below. But then she caught the glimpse of an elegant figure moving through the waves. Twisting and turning like a creature of the sea herself, so elegant and awe-inspiring. It was Mayday.
She would help me. She would see me drowning and rush to save me, and there would be nothing I could do to stop her. She would care.
Inara stepped back from the railing her hair changing back to brown and her skin regaining a healthy shade. She had a difficult time releasing her hands from the sides, as they were covered in a thin frost and had frozen onto the rails. Inara rubbed her hands together to warm them back up, a task easily accomplished in the mid-day sun.
“Hello Credence.” she said to herself.
Inara thought of going back to her room for a while to rest, but decided against it. It was a beautiful day, and she decided she needed someone to talk to for a little while, if for nothing else but to reaffirm her of her own existence. Inara walked to the side of the ship where Mayday would find it easiest and therefore most likely end up pulling herself back on board and waited. |

Mayday twisted and turned in the water, and let the soothing feeling of the gentle waves wash over her. After a few good minutes of swimming around and admiring the fish below, she decided to come to the surface. As she did so, she lay on her back and looked up above. In her sight she saw Inara standing next to the side railing of the ship. She stared at Inara's figure for awhile, noticing that Inara had been doing the same.
Mayday noticed that Inara seemed to be waiting for her. Usually Mayday would stay in the water and come out when she felt like it, but this time it was different. She got a feeling as though she HAD to get out of the water, and she HAD to talk to Inara. Mayday decided to go up and talk to her, so she swam to the side of the ship and began to climb it until she reached the upper deck.
Mayday swung herself onto the deck and stood dripping wet next to Inara. She brushed her golden blonde hair out of her eyes, and wrung out the excess water from her tunic. "You ok?" she asked Inara while leaning against the side railing. |

Nathrach stepped out from the cabin of the ship onto the deck. Ahhh...he thought, it isss a fine and wonderrrful day. With the sssun out like thisss it would be easssy for thisss one to trrrain.
Nathrach took up a position near the edge of the boat so that he could feel the spray of the sea in his face every so often. From his back he withdrew his sword and began a series of chopping and slicing techniques. From the corner of his eye he caught sight of Mayday and Inara sitting opposite him on the deck, talking about something or other.
Few thingsss worrry thisss one in life, but that one sssendsss chillsss down ourrr ssspine.
Nathrach shrugged the thoughts of her off and took another swipe at the air with his massive sword. |

Inara watched as the Lizard, Nathrach, swung his sword through the air. She almost thought he looked silly, a rather large lizard jumping around in a mock combative stance, but she would hate to be that imaginary enemy right now. She heard a splash down below and directed her attention back to the sea as Mayday emerged from the surface of the water, climbed up the ladder, then heaved herself over the rails and onto the deck of the ship. She was almost as graceful out of the water as in it. It was something Inara was actually quite jealous of.
When Mayday asked her if she was okay, Inara's mind raced.
"Y..Y..Yeah" Inara had some problems speaking to anyone when directly spoken to. Inara felt a bit more comfortable around Mayday then most other people, but she was also afraid of what Mayday would think if she told her exactly what she had been thinking of.
"I...I just saw you swimming around in the ocean... and it looked all wet...I mean cool... and relaxing...".
Great. . . real smooth. Not at all pathetic.

Nathrach envied Mayday as the water rolled off her sleek feminine form. To be ssso clossse to the sssea...would that I could do sssuch a thing.
At that moment a man came in front of him, interrupting his thoughts. Nathrach paused in his combat motions for a moment to consider the one who had the audacity to interrupt the Senior-Man-At-Arms during one of his training sessions. He didn't recognize the man, which didn't particularly surprise him. Most humans looked the same to him anyway.
"You mussst be new. I am Nathrach, and you have interrupted my training. What is it you want?" He said, glaring at the man through the narrowed slits of his eyelids.
"Yeah, I'm new, that's why the captain sent me to you to test my combat skills." The man said, trying to look as though he were in complete control. Nathrach's trained eye noticed a slight tremble in his hands, however.
"Very well," He said, "Ssspar with me." Nathrach withdrew held his large sword at a diagonal behind him so that the point was resting on the ground. Anyone who knew him also knew that this was his preferred fighting stance, and from it he could launch all manner of fast, heavy attacks. The other man withdrew his weapon, a saber, and took up a fencing stance, one hand raised behind him, while his sword hand remained in front of him. Nathrach allowed a slight grin to form on his reptilian features.
By this time, a small crowd had gathered to watch the display, mostly wanting to see Nathrach pummel the poor sod before he knew the fight began. Nathrach was always one to please a crowd...
He quickly lunged forward with a feint to the right, leading with his left foot. The man quickly parried and came in for a counter-attack, but failed to notice that Nathrach was reversing his momentum. When the man finished his attack, Nathrach was already to his left. Nathrach batted the back of the man's head with the flat of his bladeand quickly followed the motion with a sweeping kick in the same direction. The man was on his back and grumbling before he knew what had happened, and Nathrach stood above him, the point of his sword just inches from the man's throat.
"Thisss one hasss much to learn. Bring him to me when he isss well again." |

Niondel
was resting on the deck, when he saw a group gather around he stood
lazily seeing a lizard take down a man with a sabre. The man with
the sabre was fast but surprising the lizard got the best of him.
Niondel smiled, He's a smart fighter, fast
but not the fastest but his tactic seemed to make up for it...
especially with his brute strength and that blade....
Niondel climbed up a
level and leaned on a rail, "Not much of a match from what I
saw..." |

| Nathrach's keen sense of hearing caught the
remark. "What isss it you wish demon ssspawn? Perhapsss you would
like to try your luck? You should not flap your tongue at me if you
wish it to remain in your mouth." Nathrach didn't like humans, most
people knew that, but he hated demons even more. A cross between a
demon and a human didn't exactly rank very high on his "good"
list. |

"Flap my
tongue?"
Niondel
laughed and jumped down, "My dear friend, it wasn't much of a match
because you took care of him so quickly and with such relative
ease."
"Also I do
not believe in such simple thing as in 'luck' but rather fate."
Niondel pulled a thin
dagger from his vest and twirled in through his fingers. "Also I'm
not one for a pointless battle..." |

"Know
that I hold no love for you, and any battle between usss would not
be pointlesss. I am paid to do my job,
not to asssociate myssself with foul creaturesss sssuch az
yourssself."
Nathrach turned from the man then and cleaved
the air once more with his sword. Talking with people he didn't like
always made him want to cut something...or someone.
Ssstupid demon-ssspawn...Ssstupid
humansss...
Nathrach took another swipe, this one taking
out an unsuspecting barrel of ale in the process. Not like he drank
the stuff anyway....
OOC: Funny how he hates demons when, by all
outward appearances, he looks more like one than your character, eh

Mayday
briefly watched the match between Nathrach and the newbie. Normally
she would've found it quite entertaining to watch, but on this
particular day she didn't feel very up to it. As Nathrach quickly
defeated the newcomer; Mayday glanced back over to Inara.
"Feel up for a swim?"
she asked. "It is a hot day," Mayday noticed the sun beating down
against the deck of the ship. |

Inara's
face brightened considerably at Mayday's suggestion. "Swim? Beneath
the sparkling surface and waves of cadence? With fishes and whales
and lobsters? No. . . not lobsters. Too occupied with their own
agendas, no time for swimming."
Inara giggled a bit at Mayday's confusion. "I
don't think I know how to swim, but you can swim good enough for
both of us I think." Without a word in otherwise from Mayday she
leaped over the railing into the rolling sea.

been swiming in the open ocean like she always does and came up to

She laid on her back floating and she began to sing a sorrowful, yet

background. |

Nathrach
returned to his quarters in the cabin and took out some of his Yjira wine, the only alcohol he would
touch. It was one of the few relics he had of his past life. Only three bottlesss left...When we return to
port I will have to remember to gather the ingredientsss to make
more...or, I could sssteal them the next time we find a ship to
raid...That'sss what we need! Another raid...
Nathrach left his

time they would intercept a shipping lane, hoping that time would be
soon. |

| Mayday
dove in after Inara. She saw her friend below her, and she decided
to swim after her. Little air bubbles from Inara, hit her face and
tickled her. Mayday tried to laugh, but instead she inhaled water.
Upon realizing this, Mayday bolted back up to the surface and began
to cough up as much water as she could. "Not very smart, eh?" she
stated aloud, hoping Inara was already above the surface. To her
dismay, Inara was not above the surface
yet... |

Iruka was
still just floating on her back, singing whatever words she felt in
her heart. After awhile she stopped singing and just talked to no
one in particular.
"It is just another one of those days," She
sighed. "I don't want to be alone anymore."
Iruka looked about the
horizon again hoping there would be something to explore. Her wish
had be granted as her red eyes caught sight of the ship. Her
curiosity got the best of her as dove under the water for a
refreshing swim toward the floating object. Under the water Iruka
felt that something was not right.

Inara's
mind swam as her body sunk. The water felt so good, wrapping around
her like an icy blanket. She muttered a few words in awe, but saw
the words change to bubbles before her and float up to the surface.
A surface that was rapidly getting darker. Inara struggled against
the water, trying to force her body upward.
Nope, guess I can't swim
She tried to let out a
call to Mayday, but it ended up muffled and distant sounding even
coming from her own mouth. With nothing to do, Inara decided to lay
back and wait. Struggling wasn't going to do her any
good. |

Iruka was
nearing the ship when she heard words she did not understand. Being
sensitive to vibrations or sounds passing through the water, Iruka
felt a struggle a little ahead and below her. She was determined to
find out what it was that was causing this disturbance. She swam
deeper and caught a glimpse of a female. Hope shown in Iruka's eyes
as she thought to herself.
Have I finally found
another of my kind? By gods please be someone like me.
As Iruka continued to
get closer she realized it was not one of her kind but the female's
body showed no resistance to the water but she was not swiming just
sinking.
Kami! I have to save them, they are going to
die.
Iruka
swam faster towards the woman yelling at herself.
Iruka you idiot, they
are drowning and you just sit there in a trance thinking she is like
you.
Iruka
came up behind the woman, and Iruka brought her arms under the
woman's arms. Kicking her tail fins Iruka propelled the two to the
top. Iruka and the woman emerged at the surface to let the woman get
air back into her lungs. |

News
traveled that a girl had jumped ship who couldn't swim, and that
some strange looking woman not of the crew had saved her. His
question for the captain forgotten, Nathrach joined many others in
peering over the side of the boat at the trio now in the water.
Ah, it wasss her who jumped off the ship. I
might have guesssed. That girl isss mossst definitely insssane. But
who iz thisss one? She looksss no more human than I...well, maybe a
bit more human than I.
If he could have, Nathrach would have gladly
done the same as the girl many times. Ah, but alas he could not. Not
only could he not swim, he would surely freeze to death should he
try.

Inara
blacked out briefly, her vision fading into an abyss of endless
darkness. She felt her body ascend through the water, carried by
some unknown force. She emerged from above the waves in a sudden
burst and then floated into the stars. She tried to call to them, to
speak to those sparkling little points an eternity away. But of
course they wouldn't listen. They were always right in front of her,
but ever so far away.
"So beautiful, why won't they answer me?" She
reached for the stars, seeking to touch them. Closer. Just a little
bit closer.
Just
when Inara thought she was about to finally reach the stars, the
blackness melted away, replaced by the mid-day sky. Inara found
herself laying face up on the deck of the ship, surrounded by the
crew, and looking into the two deep eyes that shone brighter then
the sun itself staring back at her. |

Iruka had
carried the girl to the surface, but was soon left in the background
as a woman who was very good at swimming come and take the female
Iruka was holding. Iruka watched on as they brought the brunette
onto the deck of the ship with no one noticing her. Iruka just
floated there taking in all that was going on, but felt down. No one
had said anything to her. Iruka's red eyes filled with sorrow as she
began to sing a sorrowful song, while she was turning to leave the
ship and everyone aboard.

Nathrach
as just remembering about his question to the captain when he
stopped, cocked his head toward the ocean, and fell entranced into a
dreamlike state.
That....voice....
He turned about and
came to the railing of the ship once more, searching for the source
of the beautiful melody. He saw the figure floating away, singing
all the while and could not bear the thought of letting her go.
The next few moments
came as a blur to Nathrach as in one instant he stood, longing to be
with the source of the voice, and the next, water came rushing up to
him, swallowing him whole. He willed his limbs to move in the
direction of the voice, but they grew cold, and unable to move.
Without the warmth of the sun, Nathrach's body became useless, and
he sank, much like a rock, down toward the bottom of the ocean.
Oddly enough, whether it was from his blood slowing, and not flowing
into his brain, or whether from the sheer ecstacy of embracing the
ocean...he couldn't find the will to care.

Iruka
heard a splash that brought her out of her singing reverie and
mentally slapped herself. Iruka! how dumb
can you be. Do not sing next to the boat, we do not need more people
to fall to their deaths. Iruka then swam under to the source of
the one who had gone overboard. She was in awe of this creature, who
was not human, but he was sinking and looked stiff as if his body
would not function in the water.
With a lot of effort she managed to reach the
lizard man and pull him into the well under the large ship, that she
had noticed a few dolphins enter. She changed her fins into feet,
and not used to putting weight on her legs she stumbled to get the
lizard man up onto the deck of the ship, hoping the sun would warm
him up.
Iruka's
red eyes gazed around as some of the men just stared at her with
gaping mouths. (hint: she doesn't wear clothes) Not knowing why they
were staring Iruka asked the crew. She was hesitant under their
gaze.

Inara
turned her head to see laying next to her the lizard creature that
resided on the boat. He was wet and appeared quite docile, which was
an indicator that his blood temperature was dangerously low. Pity Inara thought, she kinda liked the
lizard thing for no reason she could pinpoint exactly. She touched
the creatures hand, feeling it's scaly smoothness.
As Inara lapsed into
unconsciousness, a gentle heat exuded from her body, that
transferred through her hand into the lizard's
body. |

Nathrach
inhaled a soft hiss, and looked to Iruka. "Thank you for taking me
aboard the ship," he managed to whisper. He then turned to see who
else he owed his life to, and snapped fully back into consciousness.
"Do not touch me demon-ssspawn! Better to have died in the ocean
than to be sssaved by one of your foul nature! Back! Back!" he
hissed. Nathrach composed himself and quickly left the cabin and
walked onto the deck.
All things considered, it wasn't so bad. He had
known the touch of the ocean, and he wanted nothing more than to
find a way to embrace it once more. |

was kneeled next to Inara, on the deck of the ship. Strands of her
golden bleached hair lay drenched in front of her face. Every so
often small water droplets could be seen falling from them. Her
orangey eyes reflected the light perfectly, they almost looked
firey. Mayday glanced at the newcomer and felt the need to say
something. She wanted to say thanks, but decided against it. After
all, she was a pirate, not a sissy. She could come up with a better
line than that. " Who are 'ya anyways?" she began. Mayday wasn't one
to offer comforting and soothing words, no, she had to state
everything blatantly. But as those words escaped her mouth,
subconciously her hand was nearing closer toward
Inara's. |

"Yo ho,
yo ho, a pirate's life for me..."
A smallish wooden raft drifted calmly in the
ocean.
"Meriel,
sing that one more time and I will throw
you overboard."
Okay, maybe not so calmly. But it was floating,
and (unbeknownst to it) it was heading towards a port.
Meriel Rhian frowned
at her twin sister, then grinned. "So let the sun shine in, face it
with a grin, smilers never lose, and frowners never win..."
"Oh, come on, Rie..." Kailani Rhian groaned, but she
was ignored. Sighing, she turned her attentions to the ocean
surrounding them. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath of
salty air. When she opened them, she could see ships a ways ahead.
Her eyes caught on the one closest to them.
"Hey, we're getting
close," she announced, nudging her sister. "Look, there's a ship
over there."
"Kai,
you said that about an hour ago to get me to stop singing. Do you
really want me to repeat that spectacle?"
"I'm serious this
time. Look." Kailani pointed at the ship that had caught her eye
before.
"Awright!!" Meriel cheered. She leaned down,
grabbed an oar, and began to row. "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for
me!" Kailani took this as her cue to grab her oar and start rowing
faster than ever.
With this added speed, they reached the ship in
fairly good time, but they couldn't see anyone aboard. Ever the
optimists, they circled around it until Kailani spotted a tall,
lanky-looking man leaning against the rail of the ship.
"Oi there!" Meriel
shouted. "We're travelers! Can we come
aboard?" |

"Tha~anks!" Meriel hollered, maneuvering the
raft over to the side of the ship.
"Ah...so how do you propose that we get up
there?" Kailani asked bemusedly. She leaned upwards and called to
the man, "Excuse me! Would you mind maybe lowering a rope of some
sort? That is, unless there's an easier
entrance." |

Kailani
took the rope that had been flung down and tied it to their raft.
Once satisfied that it was secure, she nodded to Meriel.
As she mounted the
rope and began to climb, Meriel asked, "You put the locking charm on
our chests, right?"
"Of course," Kailani replied, glancing at the
two wooden chests that lay on the raft. "They aren't going anywhere
unless we move them."
Meriel grinned and kept climbing until she
could hoist herself over the edge of the ship. She was soon followed
by Kailani, who cast one last glance at their raft before facing
their welcomer.
"Thanks for the rope," Meriel said, flashing
the man with a winning smile. "I'm Meriel Rhian."
Kailani nodded. "My
thanks, too. I'm Kailani Rhian. What's your
name?" |

"I am Iruka, I have been alone all my life. I

Iruka pointed to Inara, "Drowning and brought her back to the

sat up on one of the high platforms, scrawling in a journal with

sisters, another female - who knows what else will happen today...
He proceeded
to sketch what observations he could make of these new characters,
pausing every now and then to lift the shard of charcoal from the
paper and squint in their direction. He finished, closed the book
and set it down, and extinguished his cigarette all in one swift

over the girl in front of him. She was new. She was clueless. But
most importantly, she wasn't afraid of him. Interresssting...
Perhaps he would be
able to have a companion in this god-forsaken hell hole of a ship.
Demons, ugly humans. You name it. Wait...Demons?

Suddenly
Sebastien's face dropped deliberately in front of Kenda's as he had
let himself hang upside-down from the ropes, his knees curled around
them and feet intertwined like an acrobat.
"Ha! I think a day
like this would distract me from my
work. Eh Ken' ?" he said playfully. He expertly released his grip
from the ropes, allowing himself to drop to the deck in the
undeniable personification of a cat. He swiftly drew his sword, and
focused the blade dangerously close to Kenda's throat. 'Arr! Shiver
me timbers. I challege you, yeh dirty sea dog to a duel for the
lovely ladies... Arr!"
He suddenly paused from his moment of theatrics
to point his sword to the floor, and turned to face the newcomers.
"If you'll pardon me my ladies - i, fortunately or unfortunately for
you, would be Sebastien -" he said with a quick bow and possibly the
most mischief grin in human existance. He winked at the purple eyed
newcomer, before ending his intermission and resuming his stance to
face Kenda. "C'mon Kenny, I'm in the mood for a skrimish. Plus you

had followed Kenda over to the rail and leaned over to watch him
work. She sat on the rail and, hooking her knees over the edge of

entered the captain's quarters wth Iruka in tow. Entering the room
uninvited was something that could probably get you killed, but
Nathrach had certain special...bonuses for being the
Senior-Man-At-Arms aboard the Bowfin.
"Captain, the audienssse you requesssted iz
here. Thisss one prezentsss Iruka, Kailani, and Meriel." He said in
the most dignified voice he could muster. he may not like doing it,
but that doesn't mean he was going to let the captain know that.

"Captain." The tone of voice Nathrach used confused her even more.
Iruka did not follow the orders Nathrach had just given and walked
right up to the captain. Her curiosity had gotten the better of her
as she looked back at Nathrach. "Sssso thisss isss a 'Captain,'
Lizard Man?"
What
she did not know, was that according to Nathrach she was not
supposed to address the captain in such a manner. Iruka's eyes

Nathrach, whose face was changing every time she'd look

"Meet me in my cabin when you are done. There are thingsss I wish to

Iruka looked at Nathrach. She composed herself
and spoke like she had heard the captain speak that was not very
much like Nathrach. Iruka still was very curious, but from somewhere
within her she was compelled to say, "I am a siren, who can change
her form to be on land or in water. I only remember being alone in
the vast waters, well the only siren. The creatures of the aqua
world do speak to me and I to them, but it just is not the same. I
have been on a search to find others like me, but to no avail. My
memory cannot tell you who my creators were, but I am not like those
people you call 'humans.' I can blend in with their kind, but I do
not know my true purpose or why I was created."
Iruka sat down as her
hair pooled around her body her eyes showed nothing. She looked as
though she did not say anything at all to Nathrach. She curled up in
the corner of the room and placed her head on her knees looking on
with curiosity. Iruka smiled at the lizard while she really had no
recollection of telling him anything. |

"Like
who?" Meriel asked, looking slightly impatient.
"Like whom," Kailani corrected her mildly.
"Whatever." |

"Er...all
righty, then," Meriel remarked after she failed to get a response.
"C'mon, Ace, let's go find the captain."
"We don't know where
the captain is," Kailani reminded her.
Meriel shrugged.
"Trial and error," she suggested. "It's never
failed me before....well, not much,
anyway." |

After a
silence that seemed quite long, Kailani nodded.
"All right, let's find
the captain," she relented. "Kenda, Sebastian, will you accompany
us?" |

smile. |

"Oh-kay!!" Meriel shouted. She took Sebastian
by the arm and motioned for Kailani to do the same to Kenda.
"Let's go then!" she
exclaimed, heading in a random direction. |

Sebastian
let out a 'weoh!' as the enthusiastic Meriel dragged him across the
deck. "W-where do you think your headed to m'lady? You know the ship
already? Ken? Help?"

"Of
course not!" Meriel replied cheerily. "But this direction's as good
as any, don't you think?"
Kailani sweatdropped and looked somewhat
apologetic for her sister's behavior, but she didn't
interrupt. |

half-smiled "Well, guess so," he said glancing back
nervously. |

"...."
Kailani, too, let the pair walk further ahead of her. She followed
Kenda behind some barrels, looking slightly inquisitive.
"What are you doing?"
she asked. |

Sebastian
stopped abrubtly, causint Meriel to jerk back towards him. He
chuckled.
"Well,
m'lady, since you seem intent on leading us somewhere interesting,
would you care to see my favorite spot on the whole ship?"

| He tilted
his eyebrows downward, and a smile crept across his face. "Follow
me!" he said. He suddenly broke into a run and charged down the
decks. Dodging this way and that. They approached a mast that
appeared to be somewhat centered on the bowfin. Mid-run, he suddenly
reached out and grabbed hold of the ropes. His feet and hands
climbed upwards, almost weightlessly in an elbaroate display in
defiance of gravity. Up...up he
climbed... |

"Right,
then," Meriel remarked. "I can't climb like that...I guess I'll take
a shortcut, then." She concentrated for a moment, and purple dragon
wings sprouted from her back. A few moments' flight allowed her to
catch up with Sebastian.
"Nice of you to help me up here," she said,
teasing him. |
