Vesh peaked around the side of the table, watching as the fool moved in closer. He grinned as the bar women cheered on the boy. He knew she would see him in a less faltering light in about three seconds. Vesh rolled out from the table and stood. The boy has the gun out but Vesh moved fast. "Wire Wound." Vesh crossed his hand and made an odd motion. The wires that were to both sides of Sora and near floor level started to twist and formed pockets of tightening wire. It was a very odd move, as if the three wires were not tied to his hand, or the wall, but they looked like they were. As it was going, Sora was trapped in about three of the ever increasing loops of metal. If one was to make it around his neck he could be killed, but as it was, the only loops he had been caught in was one on the left hand and one on the right foot. "Gotcha!" Vesh pulled on the wires making the snare like loops tighten around the limbs they had snatched. Vesh looked over at the beautiful women. "Can I get your number, it would be so sad if I tried so hard to show off and it was all for nothing." He gave her his most winning smile. Then turned his attention back to the kid who was trying something. |

"Scrap metal? Well you're in luck, hon! There were some pirates the other day, and they tried something on one of my girls -- without paying too!" she said at Krest, frowning at the memory. "We taught them a lesson, me and the girls, with a little help from Sora. They ran away, tails between their legs. They forgot to pay, of course, but at least they had the decency to 'leave behind' their weapons! Now, some of 'em had swords, so go ahead and help yourself -- they're in the drawer left of the liquor cabinet." She nodded over to the kitchen door briefly before turning back to the battle at hand. Sora stopped abruptly when the wires tightened over his hand and foot. What the...?! Dammit! He stumbled as his foot stepped into a circle of wiring and was pulled. Managing to put his free foot on the ground, he resisted the pull for a milisecond before, thinking quickly, he stepped on the wire, making it pull a little bit more but effectively stopping it. Managing to avoid getting his left hand caught by pulling it back quickly, he stopped, trying to stabilize himself. Acting in the heat of the moment, he quickly loosed another shot at the man before crouching down quickly attempting to untie the the wire around his right foot.

"Thanks, with luck I'll get it done before that fight's over." Krest briskly walked to the mentioned drawer and found some of the mentioned weapons, well, if i can get one of these blades bent right I can use it... Taking one of the swords with him back to the lobby, Krest tried to use the metal in the blade of it to cover the hole in his saxophone. This was a difficult task without any tools to work with, "Sorry to keep asking, but you don't suppose you have somthing I can use to break off a piece of this sword... Maybe that "Vesh" character brought something?" Krest shrugged as he set his project down on a table nearby and watched the battle for a bit longer. |

Vesh was surprised when his attack aimed at the arm had missed. The kid was fast and was able to avoid it, not an easy thing to do in the circumstances. It would not be easy to stop this kid, but Vesh had an idea. As soon as the wire had missed its mark, he pulled his hand free of it and lifted a table only just blocking another chalk bullet as it smashed into the wood. Out of choices for his normal tactics, he kept as much pressure on the wire he had managed to get around Sora's leg and kicked off the table he had used as a shield. This had a two fold effect, first, it sent the table sliding at Sora with a good bit of force behind it. Second, it pushed Vesh away from Sora, and with the wire still anchored in place it only made the bind on the kids leg tighter. At this point it should be starting to hurt pretty bad, as well as cut off the blood flow. The down side to the tactic was he was now out of cover and had no way to block an attack. So, he moved onto the mental side of the world of war. "So, this is the best you got? Poor beautiful lady will be so sad when you fail." Vesh winked over at her. The trap was now set, would the boy fall into it? |

Felicia faceplanted at Krest's words. "Right-o, hon. Must've slipped my mind!" She said, giggling drunkenly. "Wait just a sec." She put down her half-empty pint on the table as she walked over to the kitchen. She came back with a toolkit under her arm. Grunting as she lifted it up, she put it on next to Krest. "There we are! You should find a hammer in there, and anything else you might need, hon." She winked at him confidently before sitting down again, watching the fight. Sora looked up from his unsuccessful attempt to free himself from the ever tightening wires, hearing the thump of something being kicked. A table was sliding towards him. Crap. On the other hand, he saw Vesh pretty much defenseless. Thinking quickly, he shot twice at the man over the table. He then braced himself against the table, rushing headfirst into it with a jump low to the ground, hands folded in front of his face. Colliding with the bottom part of the table, it fell over, narrowly missing his feet as he crashes through. "Argh!" He grunted as he held in the pain. Dammit! My arm feels numb! Rolling as he landed, he tumbled all the way over to Vesh. Lying face up, he aimed his gun straight at the man's head, holding in his tears of pain. "D-dead." He proclaimed.

Using the toolkit, Krest quickly bent a chunk of metal from one of the swords into a shape that would fit over the hole in his saxophone. After hammering it in, it seemed to fit well enough for the instrument to be playable. "Well, given the time and supplies, this will work fine until I can get an upgrade on you..." The sound of the fighting in the 'arena' seemed to have heated up significantly, the fight was about over. "Well, seems I finished jerry-rigging my saxophone just in time for my turn to come around. . . unless someone feels like calling it a night." (apologies for the short post, I've been doing a lot of work on a site with a smaller average post length lately.) |

Vesh reacted quickly at the kid's assault -- but not quickly enough. One of the bullets hit him on his right shoulder, and he stumbled mid-dodge from the stinging pain. He started to stand up, only to find the kid straight below him, pointing the gun right at his head. They remained motionless, as if frozen in time for a few seconds, before Vesh grinned. "Dead? Hah!" He said, letting out a short bark of laughter "Dead indeed! Course, if I wasn't dead from that bullet, I would certainly be dead now!" He erupted into laughter, as Sora's face assumed a relieved expression. "Well, kiddo, you passed the test." He said as he offered his hand, smiling down at him. Sora took it gratefully, though he winced when his right arm sent a jolt of pain. "And we'll have to get your arm fixed up." Vesh said, noticing the brief flash on his face. Cradling his right arm, Sora walked over to where Krest was sitting. Felicia was behind the counter, grabbing a first aid kit from the back. Vesh took off his jacket and weaponry as he followed the boy, before gesturing for him to show his arm. Hesitating, he slowly extended his arm, letting out a small grunt of pain. Examining the arm with light touches, he assessed the damage. "Well," He said after a while, "Your arm's okay -- you just twisted it and left a rather large bruise when you crashed through that table." He picked up some ointment from the kit, reading Muscle Reviver! on the side, and applied it up to Sora's elbow. "There we are!" He said once he finished. "Don't move it too much and it'll heal overnight. Now." He rubbed his hands together and picked up his jacket. "You did well on that test, my boy. I'll have to contact my boss for the confirmation first, though, so I'll be leaving for now -- I left my Den Den Mushi on my ship. "As for you," Here he gestured to Krest, "You don't seem like the fighting type, but we welcome all kinds at G.O.D. I'll let it slide this time... But you better not disappoint!" He said, smiling encouragingly at him all the while. "As for you, pretty lady..." He said, walking over to Felicia. "Any chance you'd be willing to wait for me tomorrow? I think you and I can have quite a lot to... Discuss." He said, ending with a wink. And with that he walked off. "Jerk." Felicia said after a while, her face tinged with red. "What kind of man would hurt a poor little boy, especially one as cute as you?" She said as she hugged Sora. "H-hey," He protested weakly. "I agreed to it. And besides, I'm not a kid." She just smiled at this. "'Course you're not." She said, ruffling his hair. Sighing, Sora picked up his bag and jacket, turning his head to Krest. "I dunno about you, but it's been an eventful day. I'm going to sleep." He walked up the stairs and opened the leftmost door. The bloodstain on the left wall was still as big and vivid as it was last time he was here, but he ignored it, throwing his bag to a corner before falling onto a bed.

Krest followed behind Sora into the room, "Well, can't say this is the best room I've slept in. I have had worse though." Sora flopped onto the bed as he got ready to go to sleep, "Well, before you go to sleep, would you mind telling me a little about yourself? To be fair, I'll tell you something about me: most of my life growing up was pretty boring, I'm also considered by many to be a jinx as most people I've worked with have been subject to fatal accidents. With that bit out of the way, mind telling me your story? Of course, you don't have to if you want to sleep now, it's been a long day." Krest leaned against the wall opposing the bloodstained one and closed his eyes as he awaited the response of his temporary partner. . . ((OOC: by the way, safe to assume there's more than one bed in the room? he can fall asleep leaning against the wall if there's only one.)) Edited by Togamau, Dec 8 2010, 04:21 PM.

(OOC: Course there's another bed~ I did ask for a room for three after all. ;) Sora grunted as Krest struck up a conversation with him, rather annoyed that he had to stay awake, but he turned and sat upright nonetheless, not wanting to disrespect the older man. He listened to him intently, his curiosity piqued. He nodded when the other man was done, pausing to pick up his bag before speaking up. "Well..." He said as he pondered on what to say. "I'm nothing special myself. I was raised by a doctor, on his ship -- He was a wandering doctor -- and his daughter. Well, the doctor, mostly. The daughter was more like a sister to me. We went island to island, never stopping for long, just long enough to help people who are sick or hurt. We went to small, remote islands mostly, cause usually it's places like there that need help the most. "Well, I spent all my life on that ship, just helping Doc when he needed it, and other times I spent either exploring the island we were currently on or, if I felt like it or we were still in the middle of the ocean--" Here he paused to take out the item he was searching for in his bag -- a well-worn sketchbook and some drawing utensils. "Drawing." Sighing contentedly, he put his bag down on the floor and leaned back against the bed, opening his book for an empty page. "'Course, I don't draw professionally or anything -- it's just a hobby of mine, I guess. It's what happens to be something I both like and I'm good at." He scratched his head, a light blush forming in his cheeks as he said the next words. "In fact, it's because of this crazy obsession with drawing that led me here." Mostly, He thought, But he doesn't need to know that yet. "I heard a lot of things about the Grand Line. Some of them scary, some of them beautiful, but all of them exciting. I heard so much, that I realized something;" He said, speaking slowly. "I want to see. I want to see these islands, see all these wonderful places that everyone keeps talking about. I want to gaze of them with my own eyes, to revel in the view. "And, of course," He said, emphasizing these last words, "I want to draw them. To make a picture of the entirety of the Grand Line. Something that can last for the rest of my life, that I could know of something that I've drawn." "Well," He said, having picked something to draw -- Krest, he thought, since I got to know him somehow -- "That's most of my story. I just hunt bounties for the money, so I can get by. I started off at an island nearby not too long ago, and I ended up here somehow. Having failed to capture any bounties, I took up serving in bars and inns. Met Felicia three weeks back. I like her, and working here, but the business seemed kind of... I dunno, questionable I guess, so I looked for other places too." Having said that, he continued to sketch with long, smooth strokes with his pencil, his previous exhaustion all but forgotten as his face smoothed into one of childish delight. |

Krest was definitely surprised to hear of Sora's life ambitions. An artist, eh? I never would have guessed with how he handles himself; of course, who can guess things like that? Krest started to space out a little as he thought about what Sora had said (which was pretty deep stuff, for sure. Life dreams and stuff like that deserve a minute to think). His staying still while thinking likely made him easier to draw. "Man, I have to say those are some nice dreams to have, Sora. It almost makes me wish that I had something like that to go after. I'm not really the kind of person to get my hopes up for something, afraid that fate may have other plans, y'know? *sigh* I'm probably just too lazy to find something I want, in all honesty." Taking a break from his monologuing, Krest looked up to see Sora sketching with childlike enthusiasm and looking up at him occasionally. "Wait a second... you were drawing me while I was rambling? Good thing I wasn't talking very animatedly, may have screwed up your reference." Maintaining the position he was in, Krest spoke up again before closing his eyes, "Just tell me when you finish, I think we've both been up long enough. We have things to discuss tomorrow... or now, if you feel like it." |

Sora glanced up from his drawing as he listened to Krest talk, listening closely to his words as he continued drawing, occasionally glancing over to the man for a point of reference. He started when Krest noticed he was drawing him. "Ah, it's no problem for you to move, actually." He said with and apologetic tone. "I don't usually draw based on something that's in front of me, you see. I just look at something, commit it to memory, visualize it and use that as a reference." He smiled at the man. "Course, I usually need to look now and again, just in case I missed something." "But that doesn't matter now, cause I... Am.... Done!" He scratched a few more lines onto the picture before finishing with a flourish of his hand. Putting down his pencil, he looked at his picture. He drew Krest in a sitting position, his back against the wall with one of his legs straight and the other bent. He was playing his sax in a leisurely kind of manner, with a cheerful, if rather sleepy face. Not bad, He thought to himself, But still needs a lot of work. He put the sketchbook on a table next to the bed, leaving it open on his newest sketch. "Well, I should really go to sleep now..." He said as he stifled a yawn. "Night." He lay down on his bed and closed his eyes, falling asleep shortly after. --- Sora woke up feeling refreshed, though still a lot sleepy. Rubbing his eyes open, he looked out the window, determining it to be around six or so. He stood up, stretching and yawning as he walked downstairs, heading for the kitchen. The main room was strangely quiet. No one was in sight, and only the sounds of the morning could be heard. No customers huh? He thought as he entered the kitchen. They're probably still "Busy", though whatever that means, I probably don't want to know. The smells of cooked food wafted from the kitchen, making him shuffle quicker through the door. Inside, Felicia was cooking eggs and toast. His mouth watered at the sight. The woman turned her head at him when he entered. "G'morning!" She said with a smile. He offered a weak grin in return. "'Morning. Mind if I stay for breakfast?" She shook her head. "'Course not! And you should wake up Krest too -- I'm making breakfast for three after all." He pouted in response. "Naww... I don't feel like going up there again. Besides, the guy'll probably wake up when he's hungry enough." He walked over to the dinner table and sat down on a chair, laying his head down as he waited for the food to finish, still feeling a little sleepy. |

Krest slept pretty well throughout the evening, no dreams to speak of. Hearing footsteps leading out of the room woke him up after about a minute. He would have gotten out of bed quicker, but he knew that Sora likely wouldn't have gone far without telling him anything about it. They were still working together, after all. Stepping out of the room, he could smell food, good food. If nothing else, it expelled the last bit of sleepiness from him before he was thinking that the food was likely for customers and, as far as he knew, breakfast wasn't necessarily included in the cost of sleeping there. . . which he didn't really pay for to begin with. Stepping into the main room, Krest overheard the tail end of the conversation between Sora and Felicia,"-the guy'll probably wake up when he's hungry enough." "Well, I'm certainly awake now. So, what is it I'm hungry enough for? I assume since you said it'd bring me here that it's included with the room or that I'm just that hungry. . . not sure which, really." Krest sat down at the nearest chair and started playing his saxophone, it was a bit of a slow number like the rising sun on a misty morning... if not for the fact that it was out of tune thanks to the shoddy repair job he'd done for it last night, under present conditions it was a bit more like the rising sun on a somewhat soggy morning. |

Sora and Felicia both turned to the man as he entered. Felicia gave a small smile. "Good morning, Krest. I'm just about finished with breakfast, so if you would wait..." She trailed off as a kettle whistled, steam blowing out of the little spout. She gingerly picked up the kettle and put it on the side, letting it cool. Sora sat up as the man started to play, staying silent as he listened to the slow song. Though the battered instrument Krest played gave a somewhat queer tune, he could still respect the overall sound of the thing. He was never one for playing music himself, but he always liked to listen. A ghost of a smile crept upon his face as he cocked his head a little to hear better. "Done!" Felicia exclaimed after a few minutes. She proudly lifted a plate of toast, stacked rather high, alongside a large plate with eggs on it. "Here you go, boys." She said, putting the plates on the table. She walked back, grabbing the kettle and a tray with glasses. Two of them were already filled -- one with milk, evidently for Sora, and the other with a tan colored, but otherwise clear liquid that Sora immediately identified as -- "Felicia, you're not supposed to drink beer on mornings!" Sora protested. She just laughed, however. "Hah! I don't get drunk! I just get... More excited is all!" She said with a giggle as she sat down on a chair, put the tray and kettle down and picked up her glass, sipping at it before grabbing a piece of toast. Sora sighed and shook his head, before reaching for an egg, cooked sunny-side up. "So." Felicia started a while after they started eating. "It's already 6 and that Vesh character doesn't seem to be coming. What're you two gonna do?" Sora froze mid-chew. Well, I knew this was coming either way. He looked over to Felicia, who was glancing at him curiously. He shifted uncomfortably. "I have enough Beli for it, so I'm thinking of going to an island closer to the Grand Line." Felicia's expression changed into one of surprise at the words. She opened and closed her mouth a couple of times, looking like she wants to speak but failing to form the words, before bending her head down, looking depressed. "Oh." She said, her voice barely a whisper. "I see." An awkward silence followed, and Sora's eyes flitted back and forth between the depressed woman and Krest. After a while, he turned to Krest. "W-what about you, Krest? What're you going to do?" |

Krest stopped abruptly as the food was brought forward, he was surprised slightly by how overwhelmingly appetizing the food appeared. "Well, if I wasn't hungry before, I am now! I have to say, this looks pretty good." Krest started eating while he was half-listening to the others. He had almost completely forgotten about Vesh and hadn't really given any thought to what exactly it was that he was going to do next since the marks they had agreed to go after were likely long gone by now. Having finished his bite of toast, he was about to speak about his plans when Sora spoke up and the awkward silence started. Deciding against interrupting, he started on eating an egg, but just as he was about to eat it Sora called to him in an attempt to restart the conversation. Krest put the egg down, "Well, to be honest, I haven't really made any plans on what I'll do next. I may head out to some place else but I don't know what I'll really do until the time comes. I might hang around here for awhile, at least until I can fix up my saxophone, the guy deserves proper maintenance after all that he's been through." |

"O-oh, I see. Well, good luck on your sax, I suppose." Sora concluded lamely. Dammit! Thank you, lame social skills, He thought, mentally facepalming. He was silent for a while, unable to find anything to say, before, glancing at the still downhearted Felicia, he stood up and said, "Well, I suppose I should uhh... Get my stuff ready." Felicia raised her head at this, an alarmed look on her face. "Wait, you're leaving now?" Sora shifted uncomfortably. "Well, not exactly... I'm gonna take the nine o'clock ship over to Stearr." They fell silent once more. He shifted uncomfortably once more, before nodding and going upstairs. --- Just put this here and... He pulled the flap of the bag forcefully, stretching the fabric to its limits before managing to secure the buckle. "There. All done!" He looked over his bulging bag, satisfied though a bit worried. He shrugged it off, though. I'll deal with stuff when stuff happens. He checked the clock. 7.30. Still got some time... He was just about to go down when he was enveloped in a pair of arms. "Stay." Sora sighed. I knew this was coming. "I can't." Felicia released her grip from him, and he turned around. "Why not?" She asked, her expression serious. "What does the Grand Line hold for you anyways? Besides, it's dangerous out there! People have lost their lives like it was nothing!" He shook his head, looking up at the taller woman. "What the Grand Line holds for me is the Line itself. And besides, it's just as dangerous here." She raised her voice. "You know it's different! There are monsters there! You can't --" She stopped in her tracks when she saw Sora's hurt look. She started again, her voice kinder this time. "Sora... You haven't been here for long, but... You've been like family to me." He looked away as the short time he spent here hit him. Me too. "You're just a kid. You can't possibly go in there and expect to survive, do you?" He shook his head. "It's not that simple. I have to go there." She took on a heartbroken expression. "Why? For this... Drawing thing?" He shook his head once more. "Not exactly." He said as he took out a picture from his pocket. He showed it to her. Felicia peered at it. "Who are..." She glanced at him before making the connection. "Are those... Your parents?" He nodded as he pocketed the picture of his parents back in place. "Yeah. They sent that along with this," He said as he took out a ring with a skull and crossbones engraved on top, only instead of the bones, there were muskets, and one eyehole resembled a scope instead. A piece of twine went through the hole so that it made for a necklace around his neck. "On my thirteenth birthday, not too long ago. Apparently, they're somewhere in the grand line." He hid the ring inside his clothes again, feeling the metal on his bare chest. "They've... Landed in unpleasant circumstances, so it's up to me to find them instead." Silence. Felicia looked down as she pondered all of this, before looking straight into Sora's eyes. "I can't stop you, can I?" Sora slowly shook his head. "Well then." She nodded to herself before walking out of the room, leaving a curious Sora alone. Later, when he was sketching idly in the kitchen, Felicia came and held out a piece of paper. He looked at her curiously, but she just motioned for him to take it. It read, 'Iou 1 Beer' His expression turned into one of puzzlement. She just smiled and said, "This here, is a ticket for one free glass of beer. You can get it once you're legal, so..." She looked at him in the eye. "You have to come back so you can share a drink with me. Okay?" Ah. He gave an understanding smile and pocketed the note. "Okay. I promise." Satisfied, Felicia nodded and walked out, leaving Sora to his thoughts. Edited by MadMadDan, Dec 27 2010, 07:42 AM.
