Seagulls can be heard in the sky above the marine ship, the weather was clear, warm and pleasant with a cool breeze in the air, it was perfect weather to sail. Whiles on the ship, those with a good set of ears called hear the faint echo of a deep voice "da~" those that were familiar with the sound knew it came from no other then Dexter the platypus. Dexter was a simple minded individual, he said few words and spent most of his time in the arms of Captain Annabel or lazing around the ship like some useless ragdoll, Captain Annabel on the other hand was known for her wicked charm and devilish attitude.

Bede bede bebe debe, debe debe...catcha... "Who is it?" Annabel spoke out in a rude tone "how many times have I told you to speak more politely woman..." the deep voice spoke out on the other side, seeming quite annoyed by Annabels tone "oh! Rear Admiral Bainy-sama!! whats up!!" "sigh...you'll never learn...did you get the message?" taking a letter out of the drew she smirked and looked at the letter "aye, I did, but are you sure? it seems very uncharacteristic for them to be on this island" "I am sure, whiles I'm dealing with business in the New world, I want you to deal with the issue there, I don't know what those basterds are up to, but bring them in at all cost" "gotcha boss man" placing the den den down she looks at the letter once again "eeeh, what are those creeps doing anyways..."

Meanwhile on the main deck.

CRASH!!!! A load thud was head as Starburst fell from the mask of the ship "What the hell!!" "Get off me you idiot!!" the marines yelled out below as Starburst fell on top of them "eeh? hey what are you guys doing?" She said in a tired way as the two grunts push's her off them "what do you mean! you fell on us!" the grunt yelled out again as he pointed at the mask "what was you doing up there anyways..." said the other grunt. It took a few moment to sink in as Starburst looked up at the mask and then back down at the two angry grunts "huh, must of been asleep..." "Alseep...how can you fall asleep on the mask..." "I think your missing the point here..." spoke the grunts.

Dusting her self off she stood her self up and started to do some stretch's "oh well, I feel better now anyways so how about we get some food" the grunts where too shocked to even respond to the wired looking marine, whiles sighing to them self's they simply shrugged the situation off and then nodded at starburst "delisheshe!" she started to laugh to her self as she looked up to the sky, the blue skies reflected of her helmet as she looked up at them, "it sure is a nice day" she would smile to her self under the helmet she was wearing.

Starburst would then walk up to the front of the ship, ahead of her was a island, coloured in dark red, wonder what island that is, she thought to her self as she rested her arms at the back of her head, her eyes would fill with excitement as she continued to look at the mysterious island, who knows what lies there, what food that they make there and most of all, what strong foes that could be lurking there, "delisheshe" she laughed to herself in excitement as she allowed her imagination run wild.

It was a beautiful day, a rare luxury on the oceans of the grand line. At least, a rare luxury for it to last more than a few minutes. Quimby had been keeping himself busy staying on top of chores on deck, best to get the work done while he could enjoy the weather, after all. "Ah, definitely nice to be on board a navy ship again! Feels a bit off to be in uniform on public transports."

He was mopping up part of the deck when he heard a loud thud and some commotion behind him to discover that someone had just fallen from higher up on the mast. He vaguely recognized her by the unique helmet she wore as one of his newly-assigned companions, Ms. Starburst. He scratched his head at how casually she got up from that fall and that she seemed totally oblivious to the fact it should have hurt. "Must be one hell of a good helmet, that's for sure..."

The somewhat older marine was just finishing his current task as this went on, so he carefully rested the mop out of the way and went toward the front of the ship, both to see the island they were approaching and make sure that the younger woman didn't suffer any delayed response to the spill she took earlier.

Rust Pit island certainly lived up to its name, at least by the color he could see from a distance. "Haa, it is always nice to finally see something on the horizon after being at sea for a few days! They say the place has a special kind of metal that only shows up here, definitely gives the place a nice color if nothing else. You seem to be feeling alright, do you fall from high places often or is that helmet just that good?"

Starburst seemed not to be concussed or anything, but thinking about her well-being gave him something to think about before lunch so he stuck with it for now. Besides, if he was going to be on assignment with her he ought to at least take a moment to get acquainted.

As she was day dreaming into the distance, listening to what he had to say she smiled behind her helmet "Indeed, as much as the sea is relaxing, there is only so much of it I can take before I'm bursting to get into action again" Looking at man he mentioned about the unique colour of the island was due to the rare metal that was found on this island "interesting, hmm...didn't know that" she said in wonder, the marine soon mentioned about her fall from earlier, for a moment she thought about it and then let out a light chuckle "dilishishi, Well, the helmet sure helps, my body aches slightly from the fall but I'm fine besides that, I must of gotten bored and fell asleep, what a fool huh?!"

Starburst brought out her hand to the marine for a hand shake "I'm Miss Starburst By the way, Apprentice of the ship and super hero of the marins" pointing into the air with her other hand rested on her hips, she posed for the man before she continued speaking her "look forward to working with you". Relaxing her posture, she then noticed the shields he had on his back and arms "hm? why do you have three shields? isn't that hard to use?" she asked in a curious manner, it wasn't everyday she met somebody that used three shields, was certainly a unique sight.

"All units place attend to the main deck" boomed the voice from the den den speaker "Seemes like there isn't time for food..grr, was hoping to get some grub before the mission started..." she grumbled in a depressed manner whiles hanging her head, just as she started to make her way to the main deck, she stopped and turned back to the man "Lets hope they have food at the meeting, right?" she said hopfully as she turned and continued to walk to the main Deck.

At the main deck Annabel would be standing on a small platform with Dexter the Platypus laying on his back beside her foot. Captain Annabel was wearing a black and purple dress with black boots, her white hair would be tied in a pig tail that was being held up by a purple bow, she would also be wearing the typical marine coats but with a Captains badge stitched onto it. "Alright guys, this is the mission, We have a group of pirates known as the Bloody Sun Pirates, Their crew is pretty big that spreads way out into the New World and mostly are known to be involved in slave and illegal weapon trades" Flicking her hair to one side she got out a bounty poster which revealed a strange looking man named Neofeed backfire, which had a bounty of 80,000,000 on it, the man on the poster was blocking most of his face with his hands only revealing sickly green eyes and a top hat.

"Don't be threatened by his bounty, it isn't his strength that got him his bounty, it's what he can do, unfortunately I haven't got enough information on him to till you due to or kind Rare Admiral not telling me...sigh...anyways, I want you guys to patrol the island for any odd activities and if any members of the Bloody Sun Pirates are spotted you are to bring them in, but remember Neofeed is our main priority, head out" with a nod of her head, she bends over to pick up Dexter and heads back into the captains room.

Starburst scratching the top of her helmet and tilts her head to one side "hmm...this all seems odd...what do you think?" she turned to the shield man, asking curiously about the mission, whatever the case, they needed to catch this Neofeed, whatever he did to get that bounty on his head sure made the marines mad.

"Huh, well I suppose when you're that durable there's room to slip up once in awhile, better to fall in a place where nobody can take advantage.
Barkus Quimby, Seaman, good to meet you, Miss!"
He firmly took the handshake and considered the introduction.

"Super Hero, huh? I didn't think we actually had those, but I guess that explains why you've got a codename, doesn't it. But, hey, if you're in this for the savin' folks then we aren't so different! 'Serve and protect' is the name of the game far as I'm concerned, we ought to get along fine out there!"

At the question of his shields, Quimby stood up a bit straighter, "It's a bit off the wall, I'll admit it. But when your dealing with dangerous folks or disasters someone's gotta take cover and it's my job to make sure they've got something to get behind, ya know? Besides, you use these small ones long enough and they feel as natural as your own fists,
but better at stopping attacks..."
he trailed off a bit as if suddenly lost in a memory, absentmindedly rubbing his forearm.

The older man snapped back to reality when the speaker called out to assemble on deck and Starburst remarked about not having time to eat after all. He personally found Captain Annabel's choice of attire a bit unprofessional, but didn't bother saying anything about it since it clearly didn't interfere with her work if the higher ups didn't give her too much grief about it, the mission details were much more important than personal dress code. Once they had their orders, Miss Starburst turned to him to talk about the mission.

"Frankly, I'm not sure what the difference is between 'being strong' and 'being able to do something that earns a big bounty' is in terms of how worried we should be, but him and his band sound like trouble and that means we deal with it. Few things are worse than slavers, don't much care how strong they are, they're asking for trouble. In my experience, there's always something else going on behind a big bounty; I just try to think about what I can do with the parts I get, really. The politics are too baffling to worry about unless something's obviously fishy."

Listening to what Barkus had to say about the mission, she couldn't agree more with him, it didn't matter what the bounty was or how strong he was, he obviously did something bad to earn that bounty, and if there was something in the works in the background they could deal with it when the time comes so there was no point in worrying about it.

"Deleshishi! you're right, well as long as we work together I'm sure we will take them down, no matter what they are up too, as marines, it's our duty to bring them in" nodding to her self she looked out to the sea, she could see the ship was reaching the docks, so that only had a certain amount of time to get ready before the mission started. "I'm going to get some supplies before heading out, better to be ready then unorganized, right?" she said whiles having her hands on her hips, she would then turn towards the supply room to receive what she needed for the mission.

A few moments later the ship eventually reached the docks, it was finally time to depart and start the mission, Starburst waited at the plank of the ship that lead down to the docks, walking down then she would look around, "wow, everything is almost a reddish brown colour, kind of reminds me of Gesso Island where all the colour was gone from it" she thought out load to her self.

"E-Excuse me, m-my name is Charlie, I-I-I have been assign to work with you for this mission...M-Ma'am" whispered a shy voice, Starburst turned around and looked down, there in front of her was a black haired marine with sharp green eyes, he looked young but he was no kid, he looked like he could of been 16 or 18, it was really hard to tell, not that it mattered when it came to joining the marines, the boy wore the typical marine uniform, he had no coat on so that showed that he was new to the marines and he wore the baseball cap as well.

"Well no need to be shy there Charlie, you have been assigned to one of the best marines out there, Miss Starburst, Hero of the marines" she yelled out in a heroic manner whiles flashing a stylish pose, the boy stood there in amazement, as if he just seen one of his all time hero's come to life "so cooool" he said in amazement, which only boosted her ego even more "Deleshishi!!" she chuckled as she remained in the pose.

Starburst's agreement and overall positivity was refreshing compared to most of the other marines Quimby had worked with in the past. He went along with the super hero apprentice to pick up any supplies they were warranted. With the last-minute preparations taken care of it was finally time to disembark. The reddish appearance of much of the island was a bit more noticeable up close, but it wasn't as oppressive as the dominant color on Brick Blues had been.

"I don't know if it's just a difference in the color itself, but I have to say that the red here is much easier to tolerate than the Blue on Brick Blues...
maybe it's the weather? You said you were on an all-white island? Cripes, are all these places color-coded or something?"
He shook his head a bit to clear it up, "Bah, not important. What matters now is that we figure out how to get where we need to. We can better enjoy the scenery once this backfire guy is in check."

It was then that a shy young marine introduced himself as part of their little detachment, charlie was his name. Miss Starburst wasted no time on trying to ease the kid's nerves, or at least Barkus guessed that was her intention, with a hefty dose of what could only be called heroic bravado as she said he was with some of the best the marines had to offer. He personally rolled his eyes at the posturing, but it seemed to make a good impression on the youngster. "Might be getting a little ahead of yourself, Miss, but I guess I can't complain too much about someone having enthusiasm for their job. Either way, good to meet you, Charlie. Stay on your toes and I'll give it my best to see that we get back in one piece."

He offered a slightly more mellow encouragement after giving the Hero a touch of criticism. It was good to be confident, but it was another thing entirely to make someone think you're a big shot when you're still technically an apprentice.

Charlie smiled at Barkus as he reassured to get them all back safely "T-thank you sir" he politely replied in an awkward manner. the three would soon walk on until they reached a small village, by the site of the entrance to the village was a rusty sign saying 'Welcome to Cango Village', it was a rather small town, primarily constructed of cheap brick buildings and cheap housing with really few businesses and entertainment, the town was big enough to supply at least three hundred people, so it was a tight community.

"This place seemed to have seen better days" Starburst said quietly to the others as she looked at the cheaply constructed buildings in front of her. "I soppose we should start looking around here first, to see if others have seen the man, just remember to not give out too much information, don't want to panic them" she advice the others as she made her way forward into the town.

As soon as the group entered they where met by an old lady, the old lady wore a brown dress with a white apron over it, she was covered in rust and wore a cloth around her head, she did seem like your typical old woman "Marines? I sure hope nothing is wrong" turning towards the old woman she smiled under her mask "have no fear ma'am, we are simply looking for somebody" The old lady simply looked puzzled at the helmet woman, but smiled regardless in a clueless manner "Well if you're looking for somebody your safest bet would be Rast stop, our inn, all sorts of folk pass though there, just ask for Jess, though I have to warn you, he can be quit protective, he has lived here for some time now"

Listening to the old lady she nodded and looked back at the others, "it seems we got our first lead them, lets go" turning back to the lady, she bows her head in respect "thank you ma'am" Starburst then walks off into town to see this man called Jess, she just hoped he would be corporative.

Leaving the ship and taking the rear behind Starburst and Charlie, Quimby kept an eye on their surroundings as they went toward their village destination. The place had a sort of rustic appeal, a little rundown but still functional enough not to be called a dump.

"Well, I'd guess that most the things on a place called Rust Pit have seen better days. Still, the place seems like it's keeping afloat well enough for its age. Seems like it'd be a pretty effective hole to hide in as well if someone didn't want to call attention to themselves." He took a few glances around the streets ahead and shook his head slightly, "Kind of difficult to tell which buildings are still in use."

Obviously, the presence of marines, including an oddly dressed one, drew some attention from the locals who quickly became concerned about what could bring them there. He didn't much like being a source of discomfort, but took it as a good sign since mild concern usually meant there wasn't much in the way of obvious danger in town so a few simple words from the masked marine were sufficient to ease the tension a bit, allowing a minor lead to be doled out by a local elderly lady. There wasn't much for the older navy man to add to the exchange so as they passed her he gave a polite nod and a quick "Thank you, ma'am." before proceeding toward the Rast Stop.

"I hope that our man hasn't found a way to get close with these folks, if I know the protective sort then there could be trouble if we poke around. Almost hope the man's made a nuisance of himself, it'll be a lot easier if we can have the support of the villagers." He spoke in a somewhat hushed tone, trying to be cautious about how he seemed to the populace. He certainly couldn't work a crowd, but maybe that was a talent the Hero apprentice could bring to the table. He would do his best job, looking tough and keeping an eye out for anything he needed to get in the way of.

A few moments went by as the trio made there way through town, the town didn't seem that bust, you could see the of people having discussions, buying food from the odd stalls that where scattered around as they went by their every day life's. The trio would eventually arrived at the inn the old lady mentioned, Rast stop. as the three entered the inn their presences wasn't unnoticed as a few of the locals turned to look at them, stopping what ever they where doing, it wasn't every day that marines walked into a bar and when they did, usually trouble followed.

"Can I help you folks with anything?" a deep voice came out from behind the bar, the voice came from a rather tall man, well built and had a scalp hat could blind a blind man, he wasn't wearing anything that stood out, a typical barman look, jeans, white t-shirt and an apron that went over his clothes, I guess the only thing that would be noticeable about this guy was the scar that went across his face.

"Was about to ask you the same thing" Starburst answered back as she made her way towards the barman "you wouldn't be Jess by any chance would you?" the man simply stopped what he was doing, he looked back at the weirdly dressed female and replied in a rather defensive manner "Depends what you want?" "We are looking for a guy, we was told that you have lived here for some time now and would most likely know the guy we are looking for, his name is Neofeed backfire, heard of him?" the name shot he barman like a bullet to the heart, his eyes shrunk and an angry frown crossed his face "I wont have anything to do with this, now get out of my bar" the barman was obviously upset by this name, the locals behind them didn't know what was happening, but some could be seen standing up from their seats in concern for their friendly barman friend.

The town was pretty quiet, though it was hard to tell how much of that was caused by the uneasy tension marine presences brought with them. It wasn't hard to find the inn, the place looked about like Quimby would have expected: dimly lit and occupied by scattered, somewhat gruff figures. Folks that weren't in the best places of their lives. The aesthetic of the place was completed by the barman, Jess, looked like he was probably the sort that wouldn't need to hire a bouncer to deal with rowdy characters. He seemed like he had seen his fair share of scraps, maybe more, and that was something that Barkus could relate to. It was mostly a matter of how he'd earned those scars that was open to interpretation.

That's why he wasn't too surprised by how defensive the man became when dealing with marines, especially when it was revealed they were looking for someone. "Okay, looks like the name means something here.
That's a good start. We're here to bring the man in, so I'm sorry we have to bring it up. If he's causing trouble for you, we're here to help, if you're protecting him we'll need to know why."


He wasn't what he'd call a master negotiator, but Quimby was at least familiar with the position of distrust they were in here and was doing his best to alleviate that. "Of course, if now's a bad time, the walk here made me thirsty so I'd be happy to buy a drink for the trouble and step out.
My job's to protect folks, so don't expect me to beat answers out of you just because you don't open up to strangers in uniform."
He put his hands up at the end of the statement to seem nonthreatening before looking to the others to see if they were on the same page.

Listening to the other marine he let out a deep sigh, waving his hands to the customers behind them to sit down and carry on with their business "look, I know your only doing your job but believe me you don't want to get involved in this, that name only brings bad karma and I don't want any trouble, these people live simple lives and I don't want them getting hurt" though he looked angry his voice had a subtle kindness to it, it was obvious that he cared for the people in this town.

"We understand your concerns sir, but we really need to know about this guys where about, like you said, we are only doing our jobs and as soon as you help us the sooner we can put this guy behind bars" Starburst kindly responded, attempted to calm the situation. Jess remained silent for a moment, looking at the three marines with a stern look, putting down his clothe he called other one of the other staff "Take over whiles I deal with this will you" The maid simply nodded "Better we take this out back" opening the door he allowed the three marines to enter into the back room where they could have more privacy.

Charlie was the first to sit down, he looked nervous as Jess took out a pack of cigarettes and started to light one up, with the smoke being haled out of the mans nostrils he looked really intimidating with that stern look on his face "I didn't know they recruited children in marines now days" "I-I'am not a c-child! I-I'm twenty years o-old!!" he yelled out in annoyance "tch, whatever you say boy" he said in return in a teasing manner "Please reframe your self from teasing our colleges sir" Starburst said in a calm but protective manner "now then, could you please tell us what you know".

"Listen, I'm only telling you this because I don't want trouble, I did a lot of stuff in the past and I don't want it catching up to me and hurting those around me, so you have to promise you'll protect the people in this town, got me? otherwise I wont say shit, and if I do end up tell you and you fail to protect anyone, I'll kill you myself, you get me?" Jess seemed very serious, he didn't care if he was threatening marines or not, he seemed like the type of guy that would do anything to protect the people he cared for, but what was this guy hiding?

It looked for a moment like perhaps things were going to get violent as Jess left someone to tend to his duties while he escorted the marines out back. It wasn't entirely the case, however, as the barkeep lit a cigarette and teased their younger companion a bit. The young marine seemed to take offense, but Quimby just gave a gruff chuckle, "Easy there, chief, you're kinda proving his point. Just take the jab and keep moving if you wanna prove anything." he gave the "kid" a playful punch on the shoulder that may have hurt more than intended before turning his attention back to their contact.

He wasn't intimidated by the imposing figure wreathed in smoke, but acknowledged that Jess definitely had the tough look down pat. The threatening language said plenty about what kind of life he had before, but Quimby felt a strong connection to this small town barman who would do anything for his own. The marine smiled and stepped forward

"Getting between people and trouble's my life! Give us what we need and I'll personally make sure your trust's not wasted. We fail to shield you and yours, you can do whatever ya want with me; it's a deal!" He gave a slightly gravelly laugh and extended a hand as if to shake on it. These were his kind of people, simple folks that did what they had to in order to get by. It didn't matter that Jess had something of a checkered past, heck, Barkus had been on the wrong side of the law a few times himself before someone got him an in with the marines.

Jessie grinned at the playfulness between Quimby and the boy, watching the boy give an annoyed look towards Quimby. He sighed deeply to him self as he heard Quimby's words, he moved his cigarette to his mouth taking another puff from it "I used to be apart of a huge pirate organization known as the Bloody Sun Pirates" he let loose a nostalgic grin whiles chuckling lightly to him self "heh, I had a pretty high bounty on my head back in those days, we used to loot what we wanted and be as free as we liked" taking the cigarette he flicked the ash's on the floor and suddenly turned serious "What I didn't know all that came at a price, I didn't care for the bounty on my head as I could always look after my self, but the price was to high to call what we had freedom"

Jess let loose another deep sigh as he put out the cigarette out on the table "The higher ups where getting involved in something ... something wrong ... I was up for looting villagers and doing the odd illegal trading for business sake but what they where doing went beyond piratesy" Jess went quite for a moment before continuing "so I decided it wasn't worth it anymore, I wanted out, so I made a deal with one of the marines that wanted to take down the Bloody Sun Pirates, I traded the information I knew about the pirate group for a new identity, so as far as they know I was token away and executed by the marines"

Again, he pursed again before saying one name "Neofeed Backfire" he narrowed his eyes "You do not have to fair his strength, he was always the weak type, I always thought of him as a rat, hiding and sneaking around, sticking his noes in other peoples business, he pissed me off..." Jess moved other to the other side of the room as he reached over for a small glass and started to pour him self a drink "He is a spy, and as much of a coward the man was, he was a good spy at that, he most likely got his high bounty from sticking his noes into the wrong type of business"

Starburst could only listen to the man as he told his story of once being a pirate to serving his time and becoming a new man, it kind of proved to her that even pirates could change, as much of a bloody history this man had, he decided to take his punishment and live out a peaceful life. Starburst tightened her fists, she could barely contain the emotional tears that began to tear up behind her helmet, but managed to shake it off by shaking her head "You must of been though so much to get this far" she said in a teary manner, turning towards Quimby she spoke out to him in a more calming tone "but, that probably explain why the man has such an unnecessary high bounty, he obviously got some valuable information"

She then thought to her self what kind of information would get you that sort of bounty though, like if the information was that important then wouldn't they send the higher ups after him? after all, they warn't even ensigns, at this point they warn't even apart of the marines properly yet. There was no time to over think this though "Jess, we will keep to our promise and protect you and this town" she said as she nodded towards him, however, just as she said that every one was suddenly blasted back by an explosion, wood, splinter, glass and rubble flew everywhere as the building set ablaze, luckily the four that where at the back of the building didn't get the full force of the explosion but would still get pretty beaten up.

The high pitch sound of ringing echoed in Starbursts ear drum as she lifted her head from the ground, she couldn't see much, only thick cloud of smoke and the sounds of people screaming, what was going on..everything happened so suddenly, at first she couldn't make out what was going on, but as she slowly rose from the broken wood that landed on her, her eyes shrunk as she saw a huge shadowy figure in the distance, surrounded by thick smoke, the only thing she could see what the faint stear of dark yellow eyes.

The story made sense, and explained why he wanted to avoid getting involved. A person's past doesn't really die and a life trying to escape from it is pretty fragile. The story gave a bit of information about the man they were looking for, but didn't say much about where to look for him. "Good of you to share, knowing a bit of how he works might get us closer to him. Wish we had a bit more to go on but, like you said, he's a tough rat to catch."

It seemed like the tale was getting to Miss Hero's heart, not surprising but still kind of funny to see that she could get so emotional after presenting herself like a stern officer. There wasn't any time to bust her on it, however, as after she promised to protect the town a bomb went off loudly and bathed the front of the bar in flames. The blast shook Quimby's feet but the heavy shield kept him grounded and blocked most of the debris from the initial blast. He was pushed to his hands and knees by the force of it, but managed to quickly get back up

"Damn! Speak of the devil! Keep low and focus on helping the wounded, I'll bust open a path to get out!"

Without really waiting for word from the others, Barkus pulled the big shield from his back and pushed into the front of the inn. There was smoke and fire everywhere and the booze behind the counter was not making it any better. It was hard to see, getting harder to breathe, and it probably wouldn't be long before the whole place came down on top of them. The sounds of fire crackling, the ringing in his ears from the explosion, the screaming of people in danger, it was overwhelming. He had no idea where to start with it all until he saw the figure standing in the way of the entrance.

*huff* "step. one. remove immediate threats." He spoke low and half-coughed it. He then lowered himself and surveyed the path in front of him, no visible civilians in the way but a lot of debris. He certainly couldn't stop to help anyone with a menacing figure right there so he readied himself and pushed forward with all his might to ram his shield into everything between him and the exit!

Quimby Rammed through all that was in his way, he managed to continue till he reached his target, slamming into the enemy, as he did Quimby would hear something heavy land on the floor followed by something grabbing his shield, this however would not stop the bulldozer that was Quimby as he would continue to knock the threat back. In took a few seconds to stop Quimby but the threat managed to stomp their feet into the ground, halting Quimby and his shield.

A few moments past as only the sounds of cashing stones beneath them could be heard. The clode of dust soon past as Quimby soon saw first hand what the threat was. Towering over him was a huge green scaled lizardman standing at a massive eight feet tall and the size of a house, his skales where green with black spikes all over his body, his spiky long red hair went down his spine, over his chest he had a belt that had ammunition to what ever weapon he had before he dropped it, the one thing that stood out however was the tattoo on his right chest of the bloody sun pirates.

"oh? what's this? somebody with a bite to them? heh show me what you have mar-" before he could finish Jess suddenly burst out of know where and slammed his head into the lizardmans head knocking him back a few meters away from Quimby "Back off!!!" rubbing his head the Lizardman grinned wickedly towards Jess "Looks like the information that Backfire gave us was true after all, tell me, how was dieing?" Jess tightened his fist whiles stepping forward "No need to ask, you'll experience it soon enough" The Lizardmans grin soon turned into a twisted chuckle "hahaha!!! you where always were a laugh Jess, but seriously, hanging out with marines?"

"Leave Jess alone villain!!" Starburst suddenly yelled out "he has redeemed him self!" Jess didn't respond, only looked pissed off "leave him alone? redeemed himself? what kind of crap is that?" As he turned to face starburst the sand of his feet pressing agents the ground ground be heard, he raised his eyebrow as he spoke in an annoyed tone "Once a pirate, always a pirate, isn't that what you marines say? eeeh? and what if I don't leave, what are you going to do about it?" Starburst gazed at the Lizardman with a serious glear behind her helmet "I'm going to punch you" the Lizardman simply grined "oh? is that so..."

"Leave it marine!!! this is between him and me!!" Starburst simply blinked at Jess, not saying a single word, was he planning to fight this guy one to one? she couldn't simply stand by and watch him fight this killer on his own. She tightened up her fist more and took a step forward "take one more move and I'll take you out myself..." Jess said deeply as he looked at her, her eyes widened only to see not a threat, but the look of a hurt man, this man went through so much to redeem himself to suddenly having to deal with his past again... "I get you..." she said lowly as she stood back.

"You know, this reminds me of this boy I met once met, cute little fella, tried to kill me because I destroyed his village, so I tied him to a tree and simply laughed at him" The lizardman simply chuckled to him self "I guess my point is that he reminds me a lot like you Jess, your just a scared little boy deep in side" Jess gritted his teeth and took a few steps forward "I had enough of your bullshit, Zeelf!" Starburst simply watched as the fight between a former pirate and the now known Zeelf begun, how deep of a history dose these two have between each other anyways? and not only that, Zeelf mentioned something about Backfire, he must differently be on this island then!
