Because i need to see the environment so i can kidnap her

`Down the lane of a bustling street, there was a decently sized food booth. Shouting among the chefs in the back, food that definitely wasn't up to code, and two people tending to customers in the front. A savory scent wafted out from behind the counters, and a black haired staff collecting coins with a not quite amiable smile.`
Nellie
Amidst the street filled with people, stood out a pirate swordsman known as - Kaito Fuze, striding amongst the other people that didn't blend in quite well with him, as some of the clothing on his upper torso were visibly ripped with neither old nor recent wounds. It was almost in an instant, when a peculiar, but luring smell had traveled up in the nose of the swordsman and a loud growl from his stomach erupted. The smell combined with his hunger had lead him to a food booth, but before he could inquire on the food, the sight of the black haired woman caught his eye, observing what she was doing. It was not long until he bumped right into her and made her drop her coins, as if to initiate a conversation as he was instantly picking up the coins.

**"Sorry about that, the smell of this place is really hypnotizing. I'm Kaito, by the way, and you?"**
Christina
I regret to inform you

Shes not out in the street

`Terlaee spun around sharply, a flare of agitation licking up her spine before she took a breath and brought back her customer service mask.`

**"Oh, that's quite alright,"** `she beamed- though, not genuinely- and gently however insistently ushered him out of the booth and to the other side, sitting him firmly on the stool. She took the coins back, and went to hand it off to the other employee as she walked back behind the counter.` **"You've a strong name, Kaito. I trust you've been on plenty adventures today, judging by your attire?"**

`However much she disliked working with customers like this, he seemed to be the type to have a few spare coins for her to swindle. She was getting paid GOOD cash, too, and selling meals was what she was being paid for, so...`

**"They say a day of activity heeds a hearty meal. Can we tempt you with anything?"**
Nellie
Kaito just let her guide him onto the stool and just stared at her the entire way with a slight smile, as he noticed that she was tad bit frustrated, but decided not to comment on it - rather try to seem like he didn't notice. The swordsman just sat back and just placed all of his attention on the black haired woman as she talked, however, the longer he looked at her, the more uncanny she seemed to Kaito. It was obvious to the swordsman by this point that she wasn't a human and as much as the sea taught Kaito, she was some sort of creature of the sea. 

**"Of course.. Of course... You see - I am a seafarer, as I like to call myself, but a more orthodox term would most likely be - pirate. I've experienced much on the sea and seen quite a lot, not to mention treasures, but..."**

The swordsman trailed off as it finally clicked in his head, her figure was too alluring, yet in it's own way - it had a negative energy that would dispel any attraction that people could find in her. Siren, a damned siren. He already had experience with such creatures in his own crew, and not to mention in the sea, Kaito just saw too many features that propagated his beliefs. And so, with his belief settled firm, he proceeded to stand up and grab the woman by the throat, to the point, where she could barely talk, but still - pulling her closer to himself. 

**"...I've also seen creatures that try to lure you with their voice and kill you, yet you don't do the same. You may be smarter, but if you try to pull anything, everyone around here will try to kill you as well. Now, I just want a talk with you, and you won't be harmed." **
Brandon
Tell me if its a bit too unfair for you
Christina
WHY IS HE SQUARING UP 2 SECONDS IN
Brandon
Dawg he knows how sirens look and act

And plus the guy is really on edge all the time
Christina
Yeah but js cause shes a siren hes tweaking?
Brandon
Not tweaking, but he likes to extort people

If given the opportunity, he will abuse his power on those he deems fit
Christina
In front of all these people?? 😭
Brandon
He doesn't really care plus he did it in a slightly more discreet way

So only the closest people see what he is doing

`Her eyes briefly widened at his outburst, but just as quickly narrowed. He was holding her throat with a good amount of strength, though, through tensing the skin there, it wasn't quite inhibiting her ability to breathe. However, her voice had a slight rasp to it as she spoke, in a much darker tone, devoid of the cheeriness it held moments before.`

**"I'd advise you to let go of me,"** `She warned, reaching up to grab his wrist, and with her superior strength, wrenching it off of her throat. Teralee held his hand idly, not hard enough to break any bones or cause damage, but enough so that he wouldn't be able to pull it free any time soon.` **"Seriously, men have no manners these days. It's not right to accompany an invitation with a threat, you know that?"**
Christina
She can crush rocks
Brandon
Against a human that has trained almost his whole life
Christina
She can crush rocks
Brandon
Why can she crush rocks
Christina
Read the doc its listed as one of her abilities

One of the sirens highest stats is strength

And shes from the twilight zone of the ocean

So higher body density is needed for a sturdier body strcuture

That comes with muscle density

More density = more strength
Nellie
The swordsman just looked at her with his determined gaze, it was his most common expression when faced with someone, who had superior abilities. As it was not his first time trying to battle sirens, he just thought of what he could do break free out of this situation - remembering that all he needed was his indomitable spirit to lead him into victory. 

**"I'm sorry, but I just despise sirens. Maybe you aren't like that one other feller, though I think it's a bit too late for those formalities, but now..."**

Kaito just looked at her with the most ravenous eyes that a man could have, she could both feel and see the muscles tense up in the body of the swordsman as she held down his arm. 

**"YOU... GET OFF OF ME." **

Kaito climbed up to the edge of the counter and started pulling the siren backwards whilst grabbing her hand with both of his hands, whilst using the counter itself as leverage against the overwhelming strength of the siren, all in an attempt to pull her out and destabilize her balance.
Brandon
Why my all rps with sirens become combat rp
Christina
Cause ur character is a tweaker

Shit would not have happened if you didnt grab her first
Brandon
Nah im just tweaking today

Its influencing my character

`Teralee watched him get up onto the counter, and immediately took a step to stabilize herself. Though, she soon realized the commotion this was about to cause, and she couldn't have that kind of attention on her. So, she let go of his wrist, yanked her arm free by pulling his hands away from her as well as pulling back, and then booked it.`

**"Since you asked *So* Nicely,"** `she said, sliding into the crowd immediately and swiftly walking through in the direction of the shore. She couldn't lead him to where she was staying- with how crazy he was, he'd probably get all his pirate friends to poach her for coins. Only place he wouldn't be able to follow her for any decent amount of time was the ocean.`
Christina
Gotta get ready for dance now so respond whenever and ill write when im free
Nellie
As she let go of Kaito, he just awkwardly fell backwards with a shocked expression as he did not expect to be just let go that easily. The body of the swordsman just smashed through some table and he laid there for a good second as his lust for battle slowly disappeared, instead replaced with a sense of shame that he just attacked a woman like that - harming his own ego. 

**"Wait... WAIT."**

Instantly, he got up and started chasing after her, but as she entered the crowd and disappeared, so did his hopes of finding her. Kaito hopelessly bumped through other people, however it was not long until he just gave up and sat on a nearby bench in absolute disappointment. Still, his shame for his actions ever so lingered within him and in fear of it never leaving him, he decided to commit to an effort that he wasn't even sure would work:

**"PLEASE! COME BACK! IT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING!" **
The swordsman came to his knees after his hopeless, yet loud shout, while the people around him stared him down like some freak, but yet he still remained with his disappointed face - staring at the ground.

`The area she was in wasn't too far from the shore, so it was only about 10 minutes of speed walking before the sea was in sight. She didn't believe that nutjob was still after her, but one could never be too careful.`

**"Fucking pirates..."** `She mumbled, walking to a discreet area where there were no eyes to see her. Teralee jumped into the water, and swam down. Maybe she'd linger down there for a week or so. His type didn't usually pursue for more than that.`
Nellie
Kaito, by this point would have fallen asleep whilst sitting on the bench with his arms crossed - though even if he seemed vulnerable in this position, he was never into a deep enough sleep to not feel anyone trying to grab his swords. However, he still had a bounty on his head, but as his head flopped downwards and in the same time hiding his face, Kaito was quite safe in his current position.

The day was starting to set as the sun hovered mid-way in the sea, sun rays beaming just right by Kaito's resting body. Slowly, the swordsman's eyes started to unlatch, yet he still remained in the same position and let off a quiet sigh. He just hoped someone would try to aggravate him for a real reason, instead of suspicions like he did last time.
Christina

˚₊·͟͟͞➳❥ *Walking around as the day fell unto night, Ash was pondering on the future of the crew. Now more than ever before. Typically, his guard is always raised but due to this, emotional and interesting occasion, it was lower than usual. His eyes jumped towards the sight of a man hunched over on a bench, almost like he was asleep. Taking a couple of steps closer and getting a better inspection, he came to realize that it was none other than Kaito. Now, of course the sniper couldn't just greet him normally.*

˚₊·͟͟͞➳❥ *Ash's eyes jumped around looking for something to help him out. Almost instantly, he found a bucket, which caused an idea to go off in his head. Grabbing a bucket, he would go on to the nearest source of cold water and fill it up. Making sure to waste no time. Returning to the bench, he was quiet as one could be and dumped the ice cold water on the swordsman. Trying his best not to laugh in the meantime.*
Christina
I feel like thats a hesh response no?

Like yall meet up then you find me

Cause what am i gonna do in response to someone pouring water on someone thats not me
Nellie
*...*

**"YOU LITTLE BASTARD."**

It was enough for Kaito to see the lower body of the perpetrator that dumped cold water onto him to know who did it, and it was nobody else other than - Ash. He jumped up in pure shock from the cold water, his wet hair hiding some of his face, but it wasn't long until he got used to the water. The swordsman just smiled slightly and got to the side of the sniper, patting his shoulder.

**"But I can't lie, you did get me..."**

**"...HOWEVER, you just asked for it."**
As if in an instant, Kaito jumped forwards, but as he did - his arms reached to his back and all the way to Ash's head, before holding onto his forehead and neck with both hands and just lifting his legs off the ground, dropping straight down.
Christina
Oh my god this dude is always tryna fight
Rhonda
˚₊·͟͟͞➳❥ *The sudden reaction from Kaito and the move that he pulled off caused him a bit of pain, but, he didn't care? It wasn't all that much. Instead, he was laughing. He rolled over onto his back and was uncontrollably laughing. After a good 30 seconds of it he would eventually dust himself off, and push himself back to his feet. Attempting to collect himself, he took a deep breath. He was almost successful too, until he got another look at Kaito's face. It was still dripping with freezing cold water and the poor guy's hair was completely soaked. He tried his best to contain it. Actually, that was a lie. He started laughing again, this time harder than before. Falling onto the bench, it took a minute before he was able to recollect himself this time. He didn't understand why this made him laugh so, but it didn't really matter anyway.*

˚₊·͟͟͞➳❥ *Eventually getting back to his feet, Ash was smiling loud and proud. He let out a sigh before giving the soaking wet swordsman the question he'd been thinking.*

➹ ***"Why the fuck are you out here just sitting on the bench like you're not some wanted pirate?!"*** ➹
Christina
Are we sure ashura isnt a girl

That fc is the most fem ass shit ive seen ever
Nellie
Kaito got up just as fast as he knocked Ash down, but still as he looked down - the bastard was still laughing. With the most annoyed expression, he just stood there motionless with his hands on his hips, just waiting for him to quiet down. The swordsman noticed though that he was laughing right at his face, which made him slick back his hair to look more presentable.

**"You talk like you aren't a wanted pirate either, strolling around here like nobody is after your head too."**

The swordsman trailed off for a tad bit as he thought of what to say, but there were little words that could properly describe what he previously did in full honesty without making him look like some villain - which he didn't want to be, or at least admit to himself that he was. Kaito just looked off into the sea that was now almost absent of the sun, before returning back to Ash.

**"I started a fight with a siren - we both probably aren't too big fans of sirens, but anyways, damn coral eater was too strong. Though, she bailed when people started noticing her, and I chased after her. Obviously I didn't find her, so I kinda fell asleep."**
Christina
CORAL EATER LMFAOOO
Joe
Okay now it's time for this
Rhonda
˚₊·͟͟͞➳❥ *Ash shrugged off Kaito's comment about walking around without a care, simply because it was the opposite of the truth. At least he wasn't the one just laid out on some random bench. The way that Kaito expressed how sirens essentially made him feel weird almost rubbed Ash the wrong way. It really felt weird because of the way that the crew had been set up. A truly confused expression was pulled into his face as Kaito finished what he was saying.* 

➹ ***"No- I think that's just you Kaito.. I don't really have a problem with sirens. I actually kind of pity them. My question is, why do you dislike them, considering who our captain was? Plus, she saved your life, even with the disdain that she felt towards our gender."*** ➹

Sitting there as he awaited Kaito's answer, Ash took a look around. That's when what the second part of what Kaito said really hit him. His head picked back up and looked at the swordsman once more, once again with a confused expression. This time, much more intense. It was confusion mixed with genuine a slight bit of irritation. They're supposed to be keeping on the low and he's just out here starting fights for seemingly no reason. 

➹ ***"Kaito. I want you to look me dead in my eyes when you answer me. What good reason could you have possibly had to start a fight with a random siren. And THEN, you had the audacity to lose. Why? How? What happened?"*** ➹
Brandon
PINGING WON'T MAKE IY FASTER
Nellie
Kaito just stood there, having little emotion in his face, whilst listening to Ashura with crossed arms. His face locked onto a wall, it was obvious that he was thinking about something hard in his mind, but he was having his own moral crisis. The swordsman was having an internal struggle on trying to decide whether to be a villain or a vigilante. Both sides tugged on him hard as he did have his reasons, but nothing was decided.

**"I don't dislike them, I just don't trust them. They all either hate a specific, but common trait or just are arrogant fools that jump into depths, thinking they have all the power that they need to achieve that impossible goal. Our captain had that same problem, and look where she is now."**

The swordsman started pacing around with his arms on his hips, listening to the sniper and there was yet again a struggle of morality within himself. Yet this time - he was quick to decide his words and choice, deciding to squat down and bring his hands together whilst keeping eye contact with Ash. However, that gaze was broken by the sea as he noticed the sun barely holding itself over the water, yet his face lowered to the ground and an expression of annoyance came upon his face as he gritted his teeth.

**"Why did I let myself devolve into such a half-assed piece of shit?! It's too late now... Damned if I know what's right anymore. Who cares, it is what it is. No choice, but to face what I've done. As a Warrior... No road left but the one that leads to the end, and I'll reach it even if it's the last thing I do!"**
With that, he stood up slowly as he kept looking towards the beach not too far from here, deciding to just start sprinting full speed toward the beach from there. What he was thinking was ridiculous and non-sensical to others, but he had to use all the chances he had.
