(ooc: Ok we got this RP started good luck all and don’t forget to have fun )Jack was staring far onto that line that divides heaven and earth, the earth was now the Hitsuji Archipelago, the Kuroi Village to be more precise. The weather was nice, the sun was up high shining upon the ship, there was a fresh northern breeze and the water a clear, they were approaching a dangerous island for pirates; Jack had heard some tales about this archipelago and by what he had heard it wouldn’t be an easy task to escape from this island alive, if they were discovered that is, their only option would be to stay low, maybe pass as a couple of merchants? The crew flag was still hidden in the hold, every effort was necessary to keep a low profile, a problem would be Tanrei’s bounty, due to his size he would be an easy target for any bounty hunter or marine; that got him thinking, a kid that young already had a bounty while a man like himself didn’t had any, Jack would have to work on that latter, now he had to restock the ship, and do some minor repairs too, after the last encounter the Salty Cog could use some more planks and nails. Jack was on the back of the ship holding the rudder in place, an idiotic task if one may say so; it was practically useless the need to stay and hold the rudder, Tanrei was an Inventor, maybe he could make a system that would hold the rudder in any position required without the need for a person to hold it… The shade was nice under the thin sheet of white cloth held by the several polls in the back of the ship; Jack took advantage of this calm moment to talk to Tanrei: “We’re getting close to an island filled with bounty hunters, I didn’t want to stop here but we need supplies, and the ship could use some repairs, we’ll have to keep a low profile if we are to get out of here, think you can handle it? |

The sun's rays softly shone through the white cloth as Tanrei laid on the deck below, sheltering from it's warm light and taking much satisfaction from the salty cool breeze. The moment felt surreal to him. It's almost as if time has never existed but things move on with it's need. For Tanrei, even though it may seem he is in a state of relaxation, his mind was in a depression. Boredom may be the reason but a weak example and was completely tired of eating those rations, daily. He worried if he would ever be able to have real food. As Tanrei lays there, taking no notice of the world around him. His captain approached him “We’re getting close to an island filled with bounty hunters, I didn’t want to stop here but we need supplies, and the ship could use some repairs, we’ll have to keep a low profile if we are to get out of here, think you can handle it?" He looked at the white haired man with a raised eyebrow and a chuckled " Hahaha~ little scrawny bawnty hawntas won't be able to take down this genius" Tanrei sat up, pointing his thumb to his head and sticking his tongue out as a little joke " I have Cawptn' here to help me too" he said with his blushed cheeks and a cheeky smile as well. He felt protected, knowing his captain wouldn't want to lose his very first nakama. Tanrei finally clicked "an islawnd!?" he immediately stood up and ran for the edge of the ship "Food!" Somewhere in his brain the instinct of desired well cooked meals meant more than anything to him right now but other thought came soon after "...awh right, sawpplies too," saying with a large grin. Time slowly came back to motion in his life. A new fresh start. |

(ooc: finally I’m able to post, sry for being so late, and of such bad quality )It was clear that Tanrei didn’t know the real danger of this archipelago, not even Jack could predict what would happen, he just knew that these islands were famous for having bounty hunters and was just being too cautious, adventure should be planned, it should be spontaneous and carefree, Jack set this toughs aside with the now locked rudder, it was held in place with a nearby plank, that should hold it until docking. He lifted the sail and prepared for landing. The streets were filled with people, some curious ones were grouping to see the new comers, they were less than expected, and maybe the lack of a pirate flag didn’t attract them. Jack took the tiny window of opportunity on the landing in which no one from outside the boat could ear them talking: “I’ll be heading towards the marine officer to get the latest bounty list, try not to get lost.” Jack grinned at Tanrei; he was unsure the young boy knew why he would get the bounty list but it would be best if he didn’t follow Jack. Jack was just acting like a local actually, arrive an island and picking up the latest bounty list was sure to be common there, there was another reason for that action; Jack was recruiting new nakama and knowing who might cause some trouble and who was strong was vital to get a good crew, he was using his lack of bounty to his advantage, in this marine world he would be getting one soon… |

Upon docking, Tanrei was just as curious to the crowded docks as they were to the incoming dhow. He stood pressed against the edge, looking out and trying to pick up details and activity inward the island. Business occupying here and there, crates and cargo moving around constantly and merchants yelling and selling their merchandise. Tanrei as his excited as he was to ran and grab his bag. He simply did not want to waste a second of this new experience and wanted to be on-the-go as they just disembark. As His boots met with the wooden planked harbor, Tanrei was ready to run of into the unknown and see what might be available for him. Gadgets? tools? contraptions? thingamabobs?! His thoughts run through as fast as his feet but his feet and mind were halted by his captain's voice that caught his attention. “I’ll be heading towards the marine officer to get the latest bounty list, try not to get lost.” Tanrei nods in agreement but his captain's words flowed into one ear and out the other, "Aw'right Cawptn'!" he responded. The small conversation finished and he was already off in between the busy crowd, heading towards central town where hopefully he could find anything beneficial for his invention craves. If he finds it. |

Jack sighted, he had the feeling something wrong would happen to him, being careless in a bounty hunter feeling island was just counter productive for a pirate. He slowly tied the ship the harbour, after a few minutes the ship was properly parked, it still needed some repairs which would be costly for a pirate that didn’t pillage or plunder at all…Jack exited the ship just to encounter the head of the harbour, he was a middle aged man as tall as Jack, black hair and a unshaved face, the distinct smell of booze was present in all of his matter, he was grumpy and a bit loud. It seemed Jack had to pay some money for the right to park his ship in that harbour, fairy enough for Jack he gladly paid, after receiving his small pay the man looked at the Cog for a while, even for a drunk it was easy to see that it needed repairs; the man took out a piece of paper, it contained a map of the island and pointed to a red “X” in the map, it almost seemed like blood and it also had the stench of booze in it. According to the drunken fellow Jack could get his ship repaired in that harbour, according to the map it was a closed space which was hard to manoeuvre in, and according to the local species there should be some chorals around that area, it was most likely a trap of some sort but Jack accepted the filthy map gladly with a smile, he asked the man were the marine office was, the man grunted and pointed the a street, he probably realized Jack wasn’t a pirate. Tricking drunken people was just too easy. Jack headed towards the marine office, and disappeared into the crowd, his lack of bounty would surely be handy in that island… |

The sun was at its highest point in the sky and the town center was at its peak. People pushing and maneuvering between each other, shops cramped with buyers and products disappearing off of shelves. Even those on display. Tanrei was baffled and in awe to see so much activity. Consumerism is surely the hype when travelers arrive here and Tanrei felt it catching on to himself as well. He could make some use with some new materials and mechanisms for his inventing desires. However, with all this busy atmosphere it reminded him of a similar place elsewhere that was just as busy as here, his own home. Awestralia. Even though it is so far away in South Blue, it felt so close within his heart. The Red haired boy looked down at his necklace and lifted it on the palm of his hand while he gently took his silent moment looking at his parents photograph with his past self cradled safely within his mother's arms. Tanrei felt all stirred inside, The joy and pride of home as well as the sorrowful struggling past resurfacing in his thoughts. Tanrei shook it off and denied those feelings. He wanted none of it. To put his thoughts off his past, Tanrei decided to do some searching and shopping. He decided sense its to crowded for a 5"4 kid, it would be best to try out some stores located outside the central. As he walked down the alleyway to the next street, he finds a isolated shop at a three-way spit in the alleyway. Many unorthodox gadgets and gizmos were illustrated on signs and apparently it said it was open. The darkness that lingered in that shop said otherwise. Although Tanrei couldn't care less and took the opportunity to see what it had to offer and walked in. Upon entering, little bells binged and clicked to notify his entry to the vendor, but or she was nowhere to be seen. Maybe he when out for lunch? he thought as he looked around to see candles lit and mechanical toys in motion at display, but the shop was left open... Suddenly he heard creaks and steps behind a back door on the furthest wall of the shop. The naive Tanrei curiously went to check, maybe they are afraid of costumers? his mind questioned. As he got closer he heard small whispers and chatter from behind the door. He approached it and slightly turned it's handle and the voices fell silent. Tanrei thought it was very odd and placed his ear on the old wooden door. He heard "4..3..2.." and immediately Tanrei shifted back as far as he could because he realized what might be happening. It was suddenly confirmed as the door was busted down and an uproar of fierce blokes run out. (OOC: Sorry for the supper late post, been busy with personal issues but found some time to make this somewhat big post.) |
