				The waves crashed against the hull of their newly acquired ship sending sea spray airborne.&nbsp; The mist stung in their eyes and left a salty taste in their mouths.&nbsp; It was the taste of freedom.&nbsp; The three young pirates had commandeered the ship a few days ago.&nbsp; The previous owners had docked in their seaside village in South Blue and ransacked the town for supplies.&nbsp; While the pirates who called themselves the Mohawk pirates were busy looting, the three friends jumped on board and raised the anchor.&nbsp; The stranded Mohawks stood on shore and shouted their vows to catch them and make them sorry they were ever born.&nbsp; Sailing into the horizon and to new adventures waiting to unfold before them, the three crewmates were faced with their first serious decisions.&nbsp; They needed a name for themselves and a name for their ship.<br><br>Kaizokusame was a fishman, a tigershark fishman to be precise.&nbsp; His body was tan with darker brown tiger stripes across his back, arms, and legs.&nbsp; He had a dorsal fin in the center of his back and fins on each of his arms and legs.&nbsp; His oversized mouth had rows upon rows of razor sharp teeth and his eyes were that of a shark with a cat-like pupil.&nbsp; His hands and feet were webbed for fast swimming.&nbsp; He wore a purple headband, indicating his level of fishman karate.&nbsp; He also wore black karate pants and no shirt preferring to show off his stripes.<br><br>“Whoa! Lookee at what I found hidden in the Captain’s room!” He excitedly waved a treasure map in the air showing his two friends the prize he just discovered.&nbsp; When he unrolled it, it plotted a course to Cherry Blossom Island and had a picture of a fruit drawn on it.&nbsp; He scratched his head, “But what is it?” he asked his crewmates.<br>

				Kimiko a lithe young woman appeared besides Kai peering over his massive shoulder. Her eye's lit up at the site of the fruit "That shape thats" she stopped for a moment and ran inside the ship where she'd set her bag. As she knelt by it the cut off denim rode up her behind and her large breasts and long dark blue hair hung as she pulled out a book. She began to flick through it arriving at the most tatty and most&nbsp; viewed page of the entire book. Her&nbsp; eye's lit up and she skipped out onto the deck again "It's the fruit I've been after the Hira Hira no mi" she shut it and looked at her two companions "We have to get it" she said looking seriously into Kai's eye's. The village she'd lived in for the last two or so years was not Kimiko original home. It was in fact her third home the first being a little village also in South Blue and the second being a gilded cage at the Shabondy Archipeligo. She shook her head not wanting to remember those days until she could kill her target.<br><br>The dancer trained girl watched Kai with interest as she awaited his response to her demand. As he was the strongest it seemed fitting that he would be the captain "So captain what do you say?" she asked chuckling deciding never to call the fish man captain again. <br><br>--------------------------------

				Raiga Tanaka, a strong swordsman that was more than meets the eye, eyed Kimiko's Lithe form as she became excited from their 'captain' showing her a map. "Oi, here she goes again, dragging us along on another treasure hunt." Raiga said, shaking his head as he peaked into the inner ship to glance at Kimiko, noticing the denim shorts she wore ride up, showing off her toned butt. Raiga pulled back just when she got up, and moved away from the door as she came back out, listening to her as she demanded they go secure the fruit on Cherry Blossom Island. "Oi, what do you want with a devil fruit?" Raiga asked Kimiko. Being slightly taller than her, he ran a hand through her hair, messing it up a little playfully. "They're nothing but trouble...especially mine..I can't even use it without growing to twice the size of this ship." Raiga said with a sigh. He knew that his fruit was powerful, plus it supplied a rather nice sword, but until he could control it, it did have it's drawbacks.

				Kimiko’s captain comment caught Kai by surprise.&nbsp; Red circles of embarrassment formed on his cheeks as he scratched the back of his head and grinned a big toothy smile.&nbsp; “Are you sure you want to be a Devil’s Fruit user?” he asked the buxom Kimiko.&nbsp; “You can’t swim any more once you eat the fruit.”&nbsp; The thought of not being able to swim terrified Kai, but nevertheless he was mesmerized by Kimiko’s bravery.&nbsp; He was a fishman and he felt at home in the blue depths of the sea.&nbsp; One of the disadvantages of being a fishman was that he could never eat a devil fruit and be able to swim in the ocean, but that was also a huge benefit.&nbsp; Being able to stay underwater indefinitely was the ultimate defense against a Devil Fruit user.&nbsp; <br><br>Seeing the resolve and determination in Kimiko’s eyes, Kai gave his first order as the acting captain.&nbsp; Awkwardly he said, “Set a course for Cherry Blossom Island” as he stood up, puffed his chest, and planted his fists on his hips taking the most heroic and noble pose that he could form and looking completely amateur in the process.<br>

				"Of course I'm sure Raiga, Kai" she said putting her hands on her hips "You two know I've been researching Logia this'll be my best chance to get at those Tenryuubito and avoid being killed by an Admiral. My skill and strength is no way near the appropriate level yet." She nodded her head at Kai's command and scurried over to the helm for now she was the unofficial helmsmen and navigator. Granted however her navigation was pretty basic as far as sailing was concerned. She thought back to her time in the grand line it was short and she'd pretty much stayed in her "owners" compound until she managed to escape on a marine ship. She turned the wheel in the general direction then called up "Hoist the sails" she called before muttering "Or whatever".<br><br>(Erm not bad.&nbsp; <br><br>They arrived at Cherry Blossom Isle a few days later it was a rather small island with only one or two settlements. At the centre lay a massive forest which was rumoured to be guarded by a giant and his dragon.* The only other major area on the island is the Marine outpost which is among the most poorly undermanned and underfunded bases in South blue. <br><br>Kimiko leaned against the side of the ship looking at the island with awe she was looking forward to finding this Devils Fruit. If it was the one she wanted then she would be very happy if not they could still make a good deal of money on it. Either way she was looking forward to it, leaning back Kimiko drew her two knives** tossing them into the air she caught them and turned swiping at the air. "My friends I'll make sure I still use you" she said grinning.<br><br><br>(*This'll be fun to explore. XD<br>** They are on her right hip set in away that she can grab them both at the same time with only her fingers.

				Raiga shook his head at Kimiko, her buxom form showing as she walked...she had really developed well over the years. Raiga shook his head at the though, watching her go off to get them started towards Cherry Blossom Island. "That girl is trouble.." Raiga said to himself, shrugging. "...Good thing I like trouble." He said with a laugh, watching her scurry around and prepare the ship.<br><br>Once they arrived at Cherry Blossom isle, they docked and went ashore to explore the island. They had glanced a Marine outpost on the way in, and had stayed well clear. Raiga looked at the forest before them, and looked at Kimiko, then their "Captain" Kai. "So...I'm guessing the fruit is in there." He said, pointing to the forest. "...Great...I always wanted to kill a dragon..." Raiga said to Kimiko playfully.<br><br><br>(OOC: I'm Assuming Raiga And Kimiko have known each other, at least for a few years.)

				From the shore, Cherry Blossom Island lived up to its name.&nbsp; Populating the coastline beautiful pink and white blossoms could be seen in front of a thick forest.&nbsp; The distant village buildings were of a round design and colored to match the cherry blossoms.&nbsp; They had pink or white walls with shutters and matching doors.&nbsp; The village had a quiet peaceful atmosphere about it.<br><br>Still not fully realizing the dangers that waited for them, Kai confidently strutted past the cherry blossom trees and into the forest.&nbsp; The thick canopy of the tropical trees choked out the sun casting a perpetual nighttime broken only by a stray beam of sunlight passing through the treetops.&nbsp; Wild animal noises and owl hoots added to the eerie atmosphere.&nbsp; Kai’s pace slowed a little and stopped when he realized that he had never been in a jungle before, he felt completely out of place.&nbsp; Coral reefs and beaches were his natural environment, he felt at home there.&nbsp; Suddenly, a terrifying roar erupted throughout the forest.&nbsp; Birds fled into the sky simultaneously and the forest grew deathly quiet as the sound of the bird’s beating wings faded away.&nbsp; A whoosh of air and another roar came from over their heads, this time much closer than before.&nbsp; Shivers ran up and down Kai’s spine, “Wha… wha… what was th-th-that?”&nbsp; He pulled out the map that was tucked into his belt and unrolled it to double check their route.&nbsp; Hoping to find a safer and less spooky way he began to read the map.&nbsp; It appeared that their destination was a grove of giant cherry blossom trees in the middle of the forest and the only way there was straight ahead.<br>

				(Maybe about three years she would have come to Kai's and Raiga's home after escaping. She didn't pick the island and just got off at the first South Blue island the warship landed at. )<br><br>"I doubt it's a real dragon this isn't the Grand line" she said following Kai casually she followed him into the forest and found it all very quite. The amount of trees astounded as any other forest she'd seen weren't nearly as packed as this one. She turned at the sound of the roar "Erm it's a big cat nothing for you to worry about Kai. Though they are stealthy things." She walked on ahead listening closely she'd never seen one in the wild but her "Owner" ensured she was as worldly as possible while adding in a good few restrictions. Unfortunately he never factored in what she'd learned in her earlier years which limited how naive she was. But on that not she was still far from knowing anything and she'd never had the chance to explore the Grandline so it would be new even to her.<br><br>They travelled for a good hour finally beginning to climb a steep hill which was supposed to be the cave. Kimiko frowned and not caring about her two friends removed he top showing off a silver halter neck bikini top. "Damn it's so hot. You doing ok Kai? We can try and find some water if you need it?" she asked glancing at him knowing he'd be suffering the most in such heat. Because though Kimiko found it was all too sweltering being human meant she didn't have to worry about it to badly."

				The sound of a roar made Raiga jump a little, though he played it off by pretending to have not been surprised at all, merely leaping a tiny branch that lay in the path. Raiga shook his head. "I swear, Kimi..if you get us killed over this.." Raiga said..of course it was an empty threat, and not a good one at that..for some reason, he found that he could never hurt her..she had grown on him too much in the last three years for him to do that. Raiga continued to look around cautiously, and, reaching behind him, decided to pull out his sword. This part was about the only thing he could control about his fruit, currently...he could pull out his sword without transforming at all, practically. Raiga pulled the blade from behind him, and the fierce Katana gleamed in the sunlight. It was much larger and heavier than a normal katana, making Raiga slightly clumsy with it, but he could still hold his own in a fight.<br><br>Raiga watched Kimiko as she removed her top, seeing, with slight disappointment, that she had on a Bikini top underneath, though her buxom bust clearly showed through, even with it on. "Yeah you're right..it is hot..we need to get Kai some water before he becomes a fish stick." Raiga said, looking around. If worst came to worst, he could always grow to have a better view...of course, anything on the island would be able to spot him easily, giving them away in an instant.

				After trudging through the forest for what seemed like all day, Kai was parched.&nbsp; His skin had begun to dry out from being away from the sea for so long.&nbsp; Panting as if he were stranded in the desert, Kai tried and failed to produce any moisture in his mouth.&nbsp; <br>"Yeah you're right... it is hot... we need to get Kai some water before he becomes a fish stick." Raiga said and Kai imagined himself as a crispy golden fishstick with stickman arms and legs.&nbsp; Another monstrous roar erupted, only this time it was from Kai's stomach.&nbsp; "Hehe, some water, and lunch sounds like a good idea right about now.&nbsp; But we should move forward, according to the map, the grove is just through this cave.&nbsp; We can get Kimi's fruit and be back to the ship in time for lunch!"<br><br>As they made their way through the cave stalactites and stalagmites began to creep from the ceiling and floors creating a maze.&nbsp; Kai wandered around and before he knew it, he was separated from the group and lost.&nbsp; He did however manage to find a small pool of water and scooped the moisture onto his dried hide.&nbsp; After moisturizing for a few minutes he wandered aimlessly until he found the mouth of the cave on the other side.&nbsp; The scene that unfolded before him was breathtaking.&nbsp; The sight of a well kept grove of magnificent cherry blossom trees left him speechless.&nbsp; He looked for his friends but they weren’t around.&nbsp; He decided to have a look around while they caught up to him.<br><br>Wandering through the rows of the trees he spied a much larger tree and began to migrate towards it. Not looking at where he was going, he collided with something and fell flat on his back.&nbsp; From his view on the ground he looked up and saw Kimiko’s fruit.&nbsp; It was near the top of the giant cherry blossom tree.&nbsp; Kai looked at what he had collided with and found the bottom of an extraordinarily large boot.&nbsp; He crawled around the boot to find a sleeping giant propped up against the giant cherry blossom tree.&nbsp; Slowly and quietly Kai backed away and returned to the mouth of the cave and waited for his friends.&nbsp; When they arrived, he told Kimiko, “Oi hey! I found yer fruit! But it’s at the top of that giant tree and there’s a giant sleeping under it!”<br>

				After wondering in the cave for a while she found they were separated and she was stuck in the dark. Gulping the busty brunette drew a flare from her hip bag and lit it. The sudden flaring of light caused a very unlike able reaction in the caves occupants and she swore. She ducked down narrowly avoiding a swarm of bats then she stood drawing one of her knives and taking a stance.<br><br>It was some time later when she emerged from the cave on the other side and spotted the grove. A grin crossed her lips as she saw Kai climbing back up now far from being a dried husk. I you're not a husk any more Kai" she said grinning.<br><br>(lame but rather quick post.)

				Raiga laughed as he heard bats flare up and fly out of the cave, knowing instantly where Kimiko was after the three of them had gotten separated. Raiga smirked. He could only guess what she was trying to do..probably fight them off or something. <br><br>Raiga emerged from the cave not long after Kimiko, and looked at the tree, and giant, ahead of them. "Wow...That's going to be one hell of a fight." Raiga said to himself, looking to Kimiko and Kai. "...You sure we need this fruit?...He's going to be pissed when we take it, you know."

				"It'll be one hell of a fight if we wake him up. You two stay here and I'll get it" she said hurrying down into the grove. She ran a little while until she was in ear shot and then stopped now sneaking watching the sleeping figure. She moved as he snored each loud snore giving her the time to move towards the tree. At the base she noted one thing, the top of the tree wasn't just tree but something else. Kimiko pursed her lips and began to climb doing it as quietly as possible. Had she or Kai thought to looking the giants side satchel they would have found the fruit. But none of them present would have realised until it was too late that the fruit on top of the tree was a decoy a carefully&nbsp; carved wooden spring that when touched would awaken the groves master and his pet. She continued to climb taking it slow examining every foot and hand hole and testing them before using them completely. After half an hour she made it to the top and with a grin she approached the fruit. <br><br>She grasped it and instantly realised her mistake "Oh shit" she muttered hearing the complicated sounds that would set off the natural alarm clock for the giant. Kimiko moved to get away when behind her the dragon awoke. It snorted and seemed to examine her with the mind of a lecherous old man. "Lovely" Kimiko again muttered before rushing to climb down the tree and leaping onto the giants clothes as it awoke and with a start stood "Who the hell woke me up?" he grumbled half asleep.

				Kai watched&nbsp; kimiko from the mouth of the cave.&nbsp; She snuck up to the top of the tree and had her hands on the fruit when suddenly the dragon woke up.&nbsp; The fearsome creature eyed Kimiko and she jumped onto the giant waking him up too.&nbsp; "RUN <br>KIMI!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.&nbsp; He knew if she could just make it into the cave, then the giant and the dragon would be too big to follow them.&nbsp;

				( Urk annoyingly reloaded the page and lost what I was typing. Whats here now will likely not be as good as the first version. )<br><br>Kimiko slid down the giants front leaping from his belt to his belt bag, on the inside it was a mess stuffed with many things some unpleasant others more pleasant. She lost her footing as the giant began to move his voice loud enough for her to hear him say something about destroying the cave entrance. Hearing this she panic briefly before calming herself and taking the time to look around. She finally found it after a few minutes a small chest with the fruit on the inside "The Hira Hira no Mi" Kimiko muttered licking her lips deciding to eat it later. Kimiko removed the fruit putting it into her satchel then climbed out of the bag the box under her arm as she climbed using her knives. It was a difficult task but she doubted she'd have much chance of escaping with out a divergent. <br><br>At the top of the bag she looked down in time to see the giant standing before the cave "Kai throw this" she yelled tossing the box to Kai for him to throw. After this she began to climb out of the giants bag hoping Raiga would use his fruit power.

				Raiga saw the giant begin to move, and shook his head. "Damn it, Kimiko!" He yelled, seeing the dragon fly off while the giant got up to his feet, being massive in size...but not too big for Raiga to handle. He smirked, and began to change...scales covered his body, but he stayed humanoid. His Teeth sharpened, and his nose grew into a snout, taking on the features of a dragon, including slit-eyes. Two dragon heads burst from growing shoulders, each roaring at the Giant. Raiga's sword, in his hand, grew along with him, changing size to fit his new titanic size..but now he could easily swing it around. Raiga was larger than the giant, larger than even the trees. He grabbed it with two hands, stopping it's advance while his other two heads bit the Giant's shoulders. "Go Kimiko! Get to safety!" Raiga called to her loudly.

				Kai caught the box.&nbsp; Although he was confused at Kimi's request, he acquieced.&nbsp; Holding the box high above his head and shouting to get the Giant's attention.&nbsp; When the giant looked his way, Kai hurled the box away creating an opening for Raiga.&nbsp; "Oi, it's getting too cramped around here!" he said when Raiga transformed.&nbsp; Knowing that there could be an epic battle, Kai hurried Kimi, "Hurry Kimi, it's going to get crazy real fast, we need to go, Jump!"&nbsp; He held out his arms to show Kimiko that he would catch her.

				"Oh shut up I'm going as fast as I can" Kimiko muttered sliding down the bag using her knives to cut into the leather and slow her descent. She stopped at the base of the bag and turned to Kai after he'd yelled then she leaped. She let out a childish weeeee and landed in the Fishmans arms "Shall we go captain?" Kimiko said winking as she hopped out of his arms and hurried into the cave "You guy's catch me up" she yelled doubting they wouldn't be able to catch her quickly. After another few minutes she'd exited the other side of the cave and made it to the base of&nbsp; the mountain below the entrance. She with drew the fruit then examining it closely before taking a bite of it. As she bit into the fruit Kimiko was forced to hold back a retch the fruit was utterly terrible as the book had said. After swallowing she stuffed it down her throat taking as little time as possible to eat the foul tasting fruit. Once she'd eaten it she remained sitting glad she couldn't see the shade of green her face had turned.<br><br>As per the books instructions she'd eaten it though she'd later learn she'd misread the passage, finding out she only needed to swallow one bite of the fruit to acquire the power and not the whole thing. After letting it settle she pulled from her little pack a small canteen and took a swig of water "Start with a small part of your body " she muttered holding up her pinky and focusing one what she knew her power would be. Slowly cracks began to appear on her finger and the whole thing slowly began to float upwards, with a strong focus the petals began to fly around her hand.

				Raiga grunted, holding onto the Giant, his two other heads staying locked into it's flesh. Once Kai and Kimi were clear, Raiga decided to use his full power, planting his feet firmly. Through brute strength alone, he began to lift the giant, and tossed it across the forest...causing it to land, more or less, right in the navy base on the island. Raiga looked at the spectacle for a moment, eyeing the dragon that was flying over head, and looked down to Kimi and Kai. "...Ehh..guys...we're going to have a small problem with the navy soon..." Raiga said to them both...the giant was slowly getting to it's feet aswell, making things worse.

				Kimi landed perfectly into Kai’s arms.&nbsp; When she called him captain again, his cheeks reddened again and he could only display a big toothy grin for a moment.&nbsp; Kimi left a trail of dust as she ran into the cave. Kai tried his best to keep up, but his webbed feet were made for swimming, not running.&nbsp; When he found Kimi at the cave entrance, she was experimenting with her new power.&nbsp; “Eh? Not bad Kimi!” Kai stated when he saw that Kimi’s hand was turning into pink and white cherry blossom petals.<br><br>A shadow passed from overhead and Kai saw the giant flying like a missile into the marine outpost.&nbsp; “Oh great!&nbsp; The Marines are going to be angry.&nbsp; I don’t wanna go to prison Kimi! Let’s get to the ship and escape!”&nbsp; Kai screamed.&nbsp; As he looked over the trees to the dock where the ship was, Kai could see a second ship pulling alongside theirs.&nbsp; He noticed the flag, a familiar flag.&nbsp; “The Mohawk Pirates!!!&nbsp; They’re stealing their ship back, Nuuuuuu!”&nbsp; Kai bolted through the forest as fast as his webbed feet could carry him.<br>

				Kimiko smiled at the complement she liked Kai though his species and her sexual preferences meant sex wouldn't happen. She did know that she'd be interested if she was straight at least.* She followed his gazed after seeing the giant being tossed over the mountian seemingly in a random direction "And Rai says I cause problems" she muttered catching up to Kai after a little while. "Lets take care of those marines" she said drawing her knives and holding them at her side and rushing forward she stopped mid run skidding to stop as a bullet narrowly missed her. She turned and saw of course the Marines a small band of them including their captain who carried an axe** in his right hand. She frowned and took a stance "I'll take these guys instead Kai."<br><br><br>(*Haphazard sentence!<br>** Yes I realise he's kind of like Morgan but it's just an axe. Also again seriously when are we setting this?)

				Kai burst through the shadowy forest in a sprint to save the ship from the Mohawk Pirates.&nbsp; The giant and the Marines were being fought by his friends so the task of saving the ship was left up to him.&nbsp; Kai ran down the dock and stopped right at the edge where the ship was docked.&nbsp; “Mohawk Pirates!&nbsp; We stole your ship fair and square, if you want it back, then, you’ll have ta fight me for it!”<br><br>The Mohawk Pirates burst into laughter at the fishman’s challenge.&nbsp; “You think you can beat the fearsome Mohawk Pirates?&nbsp; HarHarHar, we’re going to turn you into fishbait!”&nbsp; The crew charged with their swords drawn but Kaizokusame stood his ground.&nbsp; Making ready the stance for Karakusagawara Seiken, Kai punched the air declaring the attack, “Arabesque Brick Fist!”&nbsp; The Mohawk Pirates kept rushing straight into the attack not knowing the Fishman Karate technique had a delay to it.&nbsp; A second or two later, the first charging pirate caught the technique in the gut and went flying backwards into the sea.&nbsp; The rest of the crew skidded to a halt, “What was that?&nbsp; What hit him?”&nbsp; If Kai had fully mastered the technique, it would have cleared the dock of all of the pirates, but unfortunately he needed practice and lots of it.<br><br>“Get that fishman bastard!” The pirates yelled in unison.&nbsp; When the first pirate reached Kai he attacked with a sword slash. Kai dodged planting a Wantō Giri firmly into the back of the man’s neck sending him crashing onto the wooden planks of the dock.&nbsp; Planting his foot on the unconscious pirate’s back Kai said, “Who want some more Fishman Karate!?”&nbsp; Pleased with himself, he giggled triumphantly.<br><br>From the deck of the ship, the Mohawk Pirate Captain watched the fishman easily dispatch his crew.&nbsp; “I will put the test to your Fishman Karate!” he declared as he jumped onto the dock.&nbsp; Easily towering 8 feet tall, the Mohawked Captain dwarfed Kai.<br><br>(to be continued…)<br>

				As the captain rushed Kimiko waited and then side stepped the axe taking bits of her hair as it flowed with her movement. She hissed then jumped slashing at his arm with both knives as he caught her in the gut. Stumbling Kimiko focused completely on her defense this being her first test in real combat. They all lined up, and with a gleeful grin the massive captain stood and gave the final order "fire" with the order the six remaining marines fired. Six bullets hurtled out of the rifles, but only four hit Kimiko and they seemed to pass right through her. Kimiko raised herself to stand at her full height which was still smaller then the shortest marine and she grinned. The marines stared at Kimiko at the four holes in her body resealed with a lutter of petals. She smiled at them hiding that she was quite tired she was too early in thinking she could defend against most moves. "Good thing I cut those head shots up" Kimiko muttered lowing the knives*. <br><br>She examined her footing as the wholes in her torso resealed "Damn they still sent me back a bit " she muttered realising she may have taken some damage from the bullets or at least from the shock. She felt her belly and chest finding no wounds only to realise as her hands touched bare flesh that she'd messed up. A quick look to the floor and Kimiko exploded "Damn it all you made me ruin my best bikini" she screamed rushing one arm holding her breasts in check as she barrelled into the staring marines. She took out the one right in front of her as she leap kneeing him in the chin then she she performed a quick split kick taking down two more of the marines who had recovered after their comrade was K.O. She landed and looked up one marine coming at her with his cutless she again focused and the mostly shallow cut ceased to occur. Before he he even had a chance to notice she lashed out with her right arm slashing his neck then she hurried past him in time to avoid another axe strike. "Quehehehehehehehe so you can move little pirate Saseko-Chan**" the marine said standing "oh yes, one of my men is behind you" he said and in response she back kicked and to her surprised hit a body. The marine went down a down clutching at his privates muttering "Why captain?"<br><br>Kimiko gave the captain contemptuous look then "I think I'm with your lackey why did you give his position away? He might have caught me if he did" she said. The captain scoffed "I am the great captain Morgan*** and I decide to fight whom ever I wish. If you want to fight me you best take this". Kimiko raised her brow as he whipped his jacket off his shoulder and tossed it at her indicating fowl play. Kimiko as soon as the coat flew up wards leaped into a single handed back flip again avoiding an axe strike, the coat it self receiving a blow that tore through it like wet paper. "You must think I'm stupid to fall for that" she said rushing by him and cutting off one of his coats sleeves, then with it in hand she created more distance before wrapping it around her chest creating a make shift tube top. "Erm gigantic body and axe, bad breath low tactics I bet you need to pay for sex right?" she said chuckling leaping over a low axe strike. "Shut the hell up you fucking bitch" Morgan yelled going for a downwards strike again. He stopped suddenly as he received a fist to the stomach and was then left to fall onto his arse after receiving the blow. "Look genius" Kimiko placed&nbsp; a foot on his neck&nbsp; "I'm fast, tough, not a blithering idiot and more gorgeous then you are ever going to tap. Give up or I'll make you my first kill not on my list" she said her voice husky and taunting. <br><br>The marine growled and began to say the words never, when Kimiko with the reflexes of a cat slashed his throat. Standing fully Kimiko walked away picking up the remains of her badly repaired bikini. "Thanks Kai and Rai I wouldn't have survived that blow to the stomach with out your toughness training." Kimiko then wince putting her left hand to her stomach and wincing "I won't be wearing any midriff tops for a week" Kimiko muttered sourly wiping her knives clean before sheathing them. She walked at a leisurely pace aiming to rejoin Kai and Rai.<br><br><br>(*Just gonna explain this she was bent over forwards her arms crossed over her stomach to make the captain think he'd winded her. Then she timed her strike and brought both arms up cutting the two bullets coming at her head. It's hard to describe and I'd need to video it. :/ I can't describe it nor draw it.<br>** A word for prostitute instead of wench also chan you know little.<br>*** Father or coincidence of Captain Morgan oooooooooor just laziness you decide! )<br><br>-------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>At the same time in the Grand Line on the shores of Alabasta* a particular marine and his crew battled another group of pirates the "Dragon Soul" pirates. Kain let out a furious roar and dashed through a line of pirates. His swords whirled cutting at the knee's and elbows of the pirates leading to them falling. He stopped turned and kicked knocking another pirate onto his back side before slashing across his neck with the reverse edges of his blades. "Small fries every one of them small fries" he growled round housing another pirate across the face. He glanced up at the sound of an explosion and several marines falling. He stood and turned rushing for the centre of town to find several soldiers down including his fellow elites "Damn what’s going on?" he muttered stopping in his rush by marine. He checked his air ways and smiled to find the man wasn't dead he went to stand telling the marines following him to start getting people to safety when the marine choked out a gasp. "Captains half dead, pirates’ right hand, a devil" the marines coughing intensified and Kain knelt beside him "say no more that's an order you'll kill yourself."<br><br>The man shook his head "Already dead, captain can't beat dragon soul captain, swordsmanship as good as yours." The dying marine released another choking cough his blood splattering onto Kain. Then the marine fell silent and died "Damn that pirates going to die" he growled standing "No he's going to Impel Down" Kain then said remembering they didn’t kill if they could help it, head quarters liked it’s executions gritted his teeth turned. "All marines keep back get the living to shelter your two follow me" Kain ordered pointing at a nearby pair of elites. They nodded and followed it took them five minutes to reach the centre to find his captain being kicked to the ground. Kain felt his anger rise his minimal Haki radiating "One who mistreats the sword shall loose that sword" he muttered remembering the only words he still held to heart that his father had told him years before. "Father as a pirate is scum as a swordsman he is just", Kain mutters this mantra a few more times before dashing forward skidding to his knee's raising his swords and crossing his right arm over his left his left, cutlass blades pointing inwards to block the blow. "My name is Tsukiya Katsumoto" he hissed standing as the elites drag the their captain** away "They call me Haki Yoma Kain you would be?". The two swords man as if in silent respect took a few steps backwards "I am Falkin August, owner of the Nenshousuna and captain of the Dragon Soul Pirates. 100,000,000 Beli bounty I suspect I'll get another thirty for killing you and your captain kid." The pirate then let out a boisterous laugh and Kain replied by tossing aside his coat and taking a stance. "No mercy, X- CUTTER" Kain then dashed forward creating two cuts across Falkins chest while taking his hand off, Falkin fell and turned his head gasping as he saw the coat hit the ground just as he did.***<br><br><br>(*Pretty much before Crocodile started helping.<br>** He's not dead the only logical way for Kain to become a captain is for him to receive a triple promotion. In that respect his commander has to recommend it and I've up'd the threat level of the pirate he takes out.<br>*** Kains coat has a few heavy weights in it hence his speed. When he removes it he's serious.<br>Edited this post one part of it made no sense. )

				“My name is Macho-Man Mohawk Jones.” The Mohawk Captain declared with a raspy growling voice and a missing front tooth.&nbsp; He stood 8 feet tall wearing a leopard print speedo, mirror reflective sunglasses, a bright red skullcap with matching wrestling boots, and a championship wrestling belt slung over his shoulder.&nbsp; His crew began to chant, “Ma-cho- Ma-cho- Ma-cho-“ <br><br>Cracking his knuckles against themselves, the pirate captain informed Kai, “I’m da South Blue wrestling champ, yer a cruisin’ fer a bruisin’ partner!”&nbsp; He threw his arms up in the air and his crew went nuts with cheers and applause.<br><br>“Sooo Coool!” Kai said with stars in his eyes.&nbsp; Before he could snap out of it, Macho-Man Mohawk Jones leapt into the air and crashed down on Kais starstruck head with an elbow.&nbsp; Kai crashed to the dock and without time to react, he felt himself being lifted into the air.&nbsp; The champ picked him up in a helicopter spin and slammed the fishman down onto the dock again.&nbsp; Macho-Man jumped up and frog splashed down on top of Kai, pinning his shoulders.&nbsp; Out of nowhere, a Mohawk pirate with a referee shirt showed up and began to count.&nbsp; “ONE!” he began as he smacked his hand down onto the wooden planks.&nbsp; “TWO!” *smack*&nbsp; “THR—“ he stopped his hand just before finishing the count as Kai kicked out of the pin.<br><br>The Champ sprang to his feet and argued with the referee, “That was three! One, two, three!”&nbsp; The referee shook his head and tapped his shoulder signaling that the pin was broke.&nbsp; While the two were arguing, Kai slipped off of the dock and into the water.&nbsp; When the two noticed that their opponent was missing, the began to look around.&nbsp; The crew/spectators shouted and pointed to a sharkfin on the surface of the water, but the Mohawk Captain didn’t hear in time.&nbsp; Kai jumped out of the water declaring his attack, “Feeding Frenzy!”&nbsp; The fishman sunk is razor sharp teeth into Macho-Man Mohawk Jones’ shoulder.&nbsp; Instinctively, Kai jerked his body back and forth using the motion to cut even deeper into the Champ.&nbsp; With a flick of his neck, Kai slung the pirate into the sea.&nbsp; Standing on the dock, with the taste of blood on his tongue, Kai began to frenzy.&nbsp; “Blood Rage!” the fishman screamed his next attack as he shot into the water like a torpedo.&nbsp; Darting back and forth he struck the pirate captain with each pass.&nbsp; At least a dozen times Macho-Man Mohawk Jones was hit with Kai’s strongest attack.&nbsp; In the water, the pirate proved to be no match for fishman karate.<br><br>Kai grabbed the now unconscious and sinking pirate and flung him onto the dock.&nbsp; The fishman then jumped out of the water onto his opponent, pinning his shoulders to the dock.&nbsp; The referee slid in next to them and began to count.&nbsp; “ONE! TWO!, THREE!” he yelled each time smacking his hand down to emphasize each count.&nbsp; “We have a new champion!” He declared as he held up Kai’s arm by the wrist.&nbsp; &nbsp;The referee then took the belt and handed it to Kai.<br>

				Kimiko arrived at the scene of Kai's battle just as he finished it and she couldn't help but sweat drop. She had no doubt he was stronger then the Mohawk's captain but this she had to admit was embarrassing still holding her top up she walked by the group "I'll be on the ship" before she headed onboard to shower and change. She made a mental note to replace her bikini as as of right now it was useless. She also hoped no one was really looking as she hated the idea of being seen with a sleeve as top. That thought entered her mind and she scurried up onto the boat and into the ships bath room taking no time to strip herself down.*<br><br>-----------------------------------------<br><br>With two swipes through the air then Kain sheathed his swords running them over the top of their sheaths before sliding them home.** He looked over his shoulder at the huddled figure of Falkin August a swordsman with no visible respect for the sword. Kain turned to approach the figure watching the blood from his right arm gush onto the floor leaving a steadily growing pool. Falkin then began to stand and turned to face Kain his breath heavy as he gripped the stump where his hand had been. "So your Kaji's boy" he growled glaring daggers at the Marine. Kain glared back "My father is scum and I only respect his teachings of the sword I'm going to turn those skills against him and grow beyond them as well. You better lay down before I lay you out for you." Falkin and Kain glared at each other then with his only remain arm he grabbed a the hilt of his knife. The pirate's skill and eye's however caught none of Kains counter as the marine dashed forward his fist meeting Falkins nose as he was knocked backwards to role a couple of feet.<br><br>It was a short time later that the marines had returned to their warship, the pirates and their captain&nbsp; locked up but kept alive. Kain sat by the captain the ships doctor a rather fetching woman called Mitsuko standing above him. "Will the captain be alright?" he asked giving Mitsuko a curious look which Mitsuko replied with a chuckle "Yes he'll probably wake up tonight." Kain nodded then stood holding the sword Nenshosuna while grinning Mitsuko had asked him about the sword and he admitted that he'd claimed it for the swords sake. If he hadn't it would likely end up locked away never to be used again. "Sensei we're heading back to head quarters to have these fools locked up" she gave him a curt nod then turned to one of her nurses "Keep an aye on the Captain" she said before following Kain onto the main deck. Orders were given for the warship to set off it would take them a couple of days to reach the Marineford. <br><br><br><br><br><br>(* Yeah I figure using a sleeve as a make shift top would luck pretty stupid.<br>** I mean the traditional sword sheath I'm not entirely sure of it's meaning I must admit.

				As Kimi and Kai went to go take care of their other enemies, Raiga was left with dealing with the giant and his dragon. Trying to make sure not to step on anyone, least of all Kai and Kimi, Raiga's size made moving slightly difficult. His two extra, dragon heads moved and watched the dragon flying over head, while he himself moved towards the Marine headquarters, and the Giant that had landed within, knowing it would be angry.<br><br>Raiga reached the giant with minimal effort, trees snapping in his wake from his massive size as he moved through the forest. His shoulder connected with the giant, who's feet scraped against the marble of the marine building as Raiga pushed him deeper into the destroyed headquarters. All the while, his extra heads watched the dragon on high so that Raiga wouldn't be taken by surprise, their necks surprisingly agile.<br><br>The Giant through a punch at him, which caught Raiga, slightly taller than the giant, in the chin, a solid uppercut that sent him stumbling back. His Dragon heads roared in protest, and Raiga regained his footing, throwing a punch at the giant, catching him in the arm. Their blows echoed through the island, and the Dragon above roared, diving down. Raiga's other heads roared in response, and he moved out of the way at the last second, letting the dragon swoop into it's master for a headbutt.<br><br>Grabbing the dragon's tail, Raiga's size increased more, growing a third head on his massive body, the increase in strength helping him to swing the dragon, by the tail, as if it were some kind of flail, smashing through pillars and sending it flying headlong into it's master, sending them both through the back of the HQ and out the other side. "ooh..he's going to be pissed about that." Raiga said to himself as he turned and began to run back to the ship. They would have to leave, and now. Trees snapping, ground shaking with each thundering foot step, Raiga made it back to the ship in a hurry to see Kai win over the Mohawk Captain, as well as Kimi disappear inside. "Kai, We need to go...like, yesterday...he's going to be pissed when he wakes up..and so is that damn dragon!" Raiga said to Kai, looking back to see if he had been followed already. His size shrunk down back to normal...leaving Raiga suspended in mid-air for a moment from the sudden change. Rather comically, he hung in the air for just long enough to realize this, then fell down onto the deck of the boat with a loud 'thump!'. "...Ooow...Need to learn how to make that gradual..." Raiga said to himself. "Come on, Kai! Let's get out of here!"

				Still basking in the glory of his victory, Kai snapped out of it when he heard the collision of the giant and dragon smashing into the Marine Base.&nbsp; When Kimiko went by, barely covering herself, Kai’s perverted nature got the best of him and he couldn’t help but to sneak a peek.&nbsp; <br><br>Kai was grinning with delight at Kimiko when Raiga rushed past him, “"Kai, We need to go...like, yesterday...he's going to be pissed when he wakes up...and so is that damn dragon!"<br><br>“Right!” Kai followed Raiga onto the ship, biting the rope that bound the ship to the dock with his razor sharp teeth before jumping onboard.&nbsp; “Set sail for Logue Town!” he said pointing in a random direction before he realized he had no idea which way Logue Town was.&nbsp; The thought occurred to him that it may be necessary to get a navigator if they had any hope of finding the Grande Line.&nbsp; His stomach grumbling also reminded him that they would need a cook soon too.&nbsp; He was getting tired of hunting sushi for his meals.<br>

				~Marine ford, two days later~<br><br>Kain arrived as ordered at the largest meeting room at Marineford* the door was opened and he entered. All the way up the room sat a variety of officers mostly the highest ranking, among them sat Kains current commanding officer. They gave the other a nod as Kain was directed to sit he did so, back straight hands on his knee's then he waited. It was a few minutes before the man at the head spoke "Due to your recent activities in defeating the captain of the Dragon Soul pirates at Alabasta and due to your captains and many other offices recommendation." Kain almost scowled as the man at the front coughed before speaking "You, Tsukiya Katsumoto will be promoted to the rank of captain and awarded your own ship and crew. You may request a single boon in addition to your increase pay and the bounty reward". Kain leaned forward and let it look as if he was thinking then he looked up "I would like to keep the sword I claimed from the Dragon Soul captain." "Very well" said the Fleet Admiral nodding before with drawing three bounty sheets. "Now our next order of business are these three new bounties."<br><br>Kain watched as three sheets were slapped onto the ground in front of the Fleet admiral then unveil by the F.A. drawing them from right to left across the ground. The middle image caught Kains eye instantly and he growled under his breath "Kimiko you're a pirate now?" he muttered half unsure whether he could believe what he saw. However his worse fears were confirmed as the FA described the destruction of a Marine base, crew and another pirate crew on Sakura Isle in South blue. When the meeting ended Kain instantly bowed deeply "I request permission to intercept them at Louge Town Gensui-Dono" he said still bowed.<br><br>It was only two hours later and the preparations for Kains ship were ready he'd ordered a few additions to be made to the ship but soon enough he knew they would be read.<br><br><br>~Louge town, Three days later**~<br><br><br>"Ok guy's don't hold back shoot and stab me for the next five minutes don't stop until those five minutes are up." As Kimiko said this a person to her right yelled out for them to begin and immediately Kimiko focused. Her body became Sakura blossom as each bullet and blade penetrated her body. She didn't move&nbsp; and used only her senses*** as they those that remained of the Mohawk crew attacked. Once the five minutes ended she turned and thrust her right palm out "Hiru Hiru Mixer" this knocked the pirate onto his back. She grinned once it was done "Ah that was fun wasn't it gentlemen?" she said grinning at her "sparring partners".&nbsp; Strolled over to the railings and leaned against them "With that your debt of stopping Kai from tossing you off the ship is repaid. From here on you'll have to prove you're useful to him not me." <br><br>Kimiko then disappeared into the ships bathroom she let out a breath of relief "Five days and I've got it down" she muttered thinking of the many hours she'd spent mastering the change.****<br><br><br>(*The one you first see before Luffy's bounty is approved. At least in the manga. <br>** Basically it's five days time skip we just know the Marine ships are just a bit faster. Might leave Louge town arrival to you dudes.<br>*** All<br>**** Basically she's mastered the ability to become the element but only has one actual attack. Partly because I still can't think of any that aren't for much later. <br><br>Ok Never mind I just came up with a few though.

				Raiga watched Kimiko froma hammock hung high above the deck, watching her as she practiced her new found powers. He himself needed practice as well...but growing to the size of a mountain on a tiny little boat like this wouldn't be a good idea, so he could only practice on islands, and, speaking of islands, he could see one in the distance. "Oi, Kimi..tell Kai there's and island ahead...I think it's Logue Town." Raiga called down to Kimiko, swinging down from his place on high, landing on the deck with little problems. "..Whatever it is..it better have food." Raiga said to himself, looking at the approaching island. "I'm tired of Sushi all the time..."<br><br>Raiga Yawned, and looked at the Mohawk pirates. He had mixed feelings about letting them stay...they could be useful, but they could also turn traitor should someone defeat Kai.&nbsp; He shook his head, and yawned, leaning against the railing, waiting for Kimi and Kai to come see the island.

				“Oooh!&nbsp; Logue Town!” Kai was excited, but he knew that he would need a disguise.&nbsp; Fishmen were a rare sight, and he had no desire to bring any unwanted attention to himself or his crew.&nbsp; A cloak to hide his sharkskin and face, some boots to hide his webbed feet – which made him walk awkwardly – and he was ready.<br><br>At the dock, there was a large sign with wanted posters pasted across it.&nbsp; A brief search and he found a poster with his picture on it.&nbsp; He was triumphantly holding up the championship belt, the former champion under his foot.&nbsp; He also found one of Raiga, in his three headed giant form, and one of Kimi.&nbsp; Her poster was quite good, a beautiful pose with blossom petals floating artistically.&nbsp; Quickly, he snatched all of their posters and returned to the ship.<br><br>“Oi! Kimi, Rai, lookee here” he said as he handed them their wanted posters.&nbsp; “We better be careful, we’re wanted men… er and women… now.” he told the crew.<br>

				Katsuo always loved hanging out by the docks and always took note of when new ships came in. He stood off to one side, wearing casual cloths some pants, a shirt, some boots, and a cloak that was open and might just be for decoration. If one knew what to look for one might be able to notice it was Katsuo from the wanted poster, but that meant you had to looking pretty hard. He was looking over the dock for his next easy target to steal from, and one person caught his eye.<br><br>The person seemed to be new, as he ran to the wanted board and picked up some posters. He watched him head back to their ship and even better it looked like a small crew. So they either wanted the posters because they were bounty hunters, which means they might have money or because they are pirates and glad to have bounties, which means they also might have money. New pirates like these were the best targets after all they tended to not know all the tricks there were to stealing things. For now he just walked by the ship and the crew looking them over, like one of the many other people on the dock as he waited for a chance to get something.

				Kimiko took her poster and blinked "That's interesting" she muttered sounding not entirely pleased. "I'm going to look around town" she said stepping inside the ship for a short while before disembarking. Passed through the crowd watching each face her money was scattered around different parts of her body. Some in her bra some tucked into her belt and some in a her bag all of it folded for easy hiding. She stopped as she noted a figure in a suit "Damn Nobunaga's already sent someone" she muttered continuing in her walk and strolling through an alleyway to her right.<br><br>------------------------------------<br><br>Kain stood at the front of his ship they'd set sail almost immediately after Kain had discovered the that his sister had earned herself a bounty. "A Fishman and a giant as well Kimiko's earn't some interesting allies" he muttered turning at a call from the mast. He turned to face one of his newest&nbsp; right hand a Lieutenant by the name of Anzu. He waited as she caught her breath before composing herself "We've spotted more pirates permission to intercept them Shenshou?" she said saluting. Kain grinned "Granted a pirates a pirate and I don't plan to let any escape me. Now that we're in the normal seas we don't have as much to worry about."&nbsp;

				Katsuo watched as one of the crew members seemed to get off the ship and heads out on her own, and into an alleyway. Oh, this is going to be to easy, he thought as he watched her. No one, especially pirates who are new to the city, know the alleyways and side streets of the city like Katsuo does. He walked a ways up from where the woman had entered into the alleyway and took a look around and before adjusting his cloak a bit to hide his face, he took one last look around. He smiled once he knew the coast was clear he ran right into a vendor, though it would look like it was accidental. When he did he pushed the vendor over and ruined some of his stuff and then kinda of scrambled to get up like he was being chased by someone. Well he wasn't before, but he was about to be as the vendor recovered from being ran into.<br><br>Katsuo got up and ran towards the alleyway, a small crowd just moved out of the way as the vendor and a marine that happened to be on the dock gave chase. Katsuo made a quick look behind him and smiled to himself as they chased after him shouting for him to stop. He took turn after turn down the alleyway till he finally came across the woman that got off the ship and was now in the alleyways. He would look like he didn't know where he was going as he ran into her. He was trying to knock her down, though it would feel more like he just ran into her either way he was going to take anything that he could.

				Kimiko and lead her prey into the alley way and with a few twists and turns separated him from the main crowd. When she stopped half way down another alleyway she turned to face him. The suited man stopped in his tracks as he came face to face with Kimiko "So you knew did you?" he asked grinning at Kimiko's grin. "Your husband" he began only to stop as he noted Kimiko's expression. Sweating he took a few steps back as Kimiko approached him "My husband? Now I thought both parties had to say vows before they were married?" Kimiko casually fingered one of her knives as she approached him. She had been about to tell him what he could tell the asshole who called himself her husband when from around the corner a hooded figure came running towards them.<br><br>Almost on automatic she shifted into a full petal form as the crowd of people passed her.<br><br>(meh post)

				Katsuo was surprised when he ran through the woman instead of hitting her, he was not expecting a logia type of devil fruit user to be his target. Either way he was not going to let this get him down as he continued to run pass the man and the girl who was now petals. He kept running through the alleyways losing the marine and vendor after awhile of running. He would take a minute to catch his breath as he sat in a roof of a building. He needed to rethink his target and about that crew as he sat on the roof looking out over the city.

				"Be careful!" Kai called out to Kimi as she departed the ship to explore the town.&nbsp; They were wanted outlaws now, they had to be very cautious of bounty hunters and marines.&nbsp; Especially Kai, a fishman would be entirely too easy to recognize.&nbsp; Thinking he would need a better disguise, Kai went below deck and rummaged around.&nbsp; When he returned, he looked more like a clown than anything else.&nbsp; A full head of bright red hair sat atop his head hiding his sharkfin.&nbsp; A lacey shirt with spilling ruffles everywhere his his sharkskin, a pair of trousers and boots, which still made him walk very awkwardly covered his legs and feet.&nbsp; <br><br>Feeling satisfied with his disguise, Kai went off in search of supplies.&nbsp; "Raiga, I'm going to go buy food and supplies, the Mohawks will watch the ship.&nbsp; I hear there is a good sword shop in town, you may want to check it out." And Kai disappeared to the market to buy supplies.<br><br>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>'blep-blep-blep' the den-den-mushi in the lieutenant's pocket began to sound.&nbsp; "Aoi Sakura Kimiko has been sighted near the docks, take your unit and capture her immediately!" the voice from the den-den-mushi said.<br><br>"Yes Sir!" the lieutenant saluted the snail, hung up, and began running towards the docks.

				Once the crowd has passed Kimiko found herself on all fours panting as her body slowly reformed once she could feel the stone floor with her bare hand, Kimiko took it and wiped her forehead with the back of her hand. Her heart raced as she looked up to see the Tenryubito's lackey was dead likely crushed to death under that sudden rush of people. They way he lay indicated he was reaching for something in his suit jacket when he was trampled. Had she not long ago gotten used to people being killed for no reason she would have puked, even so she shuddered at the site of his broken body. Slowly she began to stand then as she detected* someone be behind her on reflex she kicked backwards like a horse. She felt her heeled shoes pierce flesh and as she stepped forward and turned drawing her knife and slashing on automatic she shuddered.<br><br>The body before her crumpled to the ground blood pooling around it, her knife hit the ground and she turned running as fast as her legs would carry her. Cries of terror soon followed her and soon her feet had become petals and he speed was not due to running, but due to her propelling herself on two turbines of petals. She was soon away from the crying and found herself against a wall panting. "First kill in so long. Damn Nobunaga" she said trying to growl only for her voice to sound like a whimper instead.<br><br><br><br>(*hearing<br><br>Can Kimiko's nick name be Aoi Sakura Kimiko instead? ie Aoi Sakura as her nickname.)

				Katsuo had been sitting on the roof for awhile, when he heard the scream and cries of terror from where he was. It was still close by, after all the dock was a good place to steal things from. He unfortunately he had also lost track of that one women that was his target before, hopefully she hadn't noticed anything about him, the last thing he needed was a devil fruit user chasing him. He still had his cloak on and up to hide him as he knew he wasn't out of the woods yet, after all more marines would be on the dock after that user showed her power. He slowly got up from where he was sitting and walked towards the edge of the roof, before jumping down.<br><br>Katsuo has bad luck, which is a very bad thing for a thief to have, but today seemed to be even worse then normal. As when he jumped down who did he have to land in front of, none other then the woman he tried to steal from. He would slowly get up and hope she didn't recognize him and he hoped more that she didn't know he was trying to steal from her.

				"I doubt they'll have anything as good as Kusanagi...but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to check." Raiga said to Kai, leaving the ship and moving down to the docks. No one, however, seemed to recognize him...something for the best, he supposed. "Sheesh...you'd think one person would know who I am..." Raiga said with a shake of his head, walking by the wanted posters, at least until he saw his own. Raiga's bounty was the highest out of the three, no doubt because of how much destruction his devil fruit powers could cause, but the picture on the poster....was a drawing rather than an actual photo.* A drawing that didn't do the swordsman justice. He ripped it off the board, glaring at it. "What the hell is this?" He said with disbelief, angry at his portrait, something that looked nothing like him!<br><br>(* Like Sanji. :D )

				By the time Katsuo appeared Kimiko had sunk to the floor her arms hugging her knee's. She stood immediately after Katsuo had landed on the ground beside her and with weary eye's she glared at him. "What do you want?" Kimiko asked. No sooner had she said this then a voice from behind called out. Kimiko hissed under her breath then turned "Get out of my face. Hira Hira: Soprano" Kimiko's foot flew upwards cutting her nearest target's face and sending his cap flying then. As she lowered her leg she lunged "Hira Hira: Mixer and Pirrouette" she finished performing the move as her legs became thousands of tiny little petals as sharp as a katana blade. <br><br>----------------------------<br><br>The ship that Kain lead was once again on it's way to Louge town after a detour to eliminate a pirate crew. A crew so weak Kain regretted wasting time on them their captain couldn't even reach him. Kain hadn't even bothered drawing his swords and had just relied on his fists and feet to take them out. "As soon as we reach Louge town I want every unit to split up force them into the main street where I'll be waiting." He turned as one of his crew brought him the Den Den mushi which continued to ring. He picked it up and began yet another conversation with the islands marine base.

				Katsuo looked down at the woman who was hugging her knees and seemed to maybe have been crying it was hard to say. He was glad that she didn't recognize him and that all she asked as she eyed him was what did he want. Though even more bad luck seemed to follow him as marines seemed to not be chasing him but her and had found her. Who ever he had tried to rob was definitely not on the good side of the law. He watched as the one of the marines came around the corner and was attacked by the woman. Though there was more then one and this one seemed to also recognize him or at least think that it might be Katsuo. This one also seemed to have a den den mushi and was already contacting the base. "I have found Aoi Sakura Kimiko and Katsuo might be working...." was already he managed to say before Katsuo rushed up and punched him clean in the jaw knocking him out, before hanging up the den den mushi.<br><br>There were only a few more marines around, but even so the longer he stayed here the more likely he was to be caught, but at the same time he couldn't leave the woman to fight them all on her own. Even though it looked like she could handle herself pretty well, he just couldn't it was not part of his code or his way. So for now he would stay and fight, still holding back his own devil fruit as he didn't want to reveal it quite yet.

				Raiga, still slightly angry over his wanted poster, which now lay crumbled on the ground behind him, made his way through the crowd, not noticing the Marines, and the Marines seeming to not notice him. He moved to the sword store, oblivious of the commotion around him, at least for the moment, not knowing Kimi was in trouble or that she had been found by marines. The Shop-keeper greeted him, but Raiga didn't say anything, turning his eye to the blades in the store instead. "Hmm..."

				After watching their comrades fall, the Marine squad began to back up giving the two outlaws some space.&nbsp; A second squad of marines appeared on the other side of the alley effectively trapping the pair in the alley.&nbsp; “Get the nets!” the lieutenant ordered from the back rank.<br><br>Crimson Jim raced down the street at a full run only to realize he had gotten turned around somehow.&nbsp; He found himself lost on the wrong side of the island.&nbsp; “Waaaa~” he yelled as he turned around and sprinted in the direction he came from.<br><br><br>Kaizokusame had unloaded the supplies and food and was ready to check out the island.&nbsp; He scanned the horizon and saw some Marine ships headed in to port.&nbsp; “That looks like trouble, I don’t have a good feeling about this…” he said to the Mohawks that were guarding the ship.&nbsp; “I’m going to try to find Kimi and Rai, I’ll be back as soon as I can.” He said as he waved and strolled down the dock taking in Logue Town.<br>

				Kimiko grinned as the marines attempted to ensnare her in a net it was a clumsy attempt she realised as she evaded them. "It'll take more then that" she said charging the marines and knocking the few in front of their Lieutenant to the ground. Then drawing one of her knives and with a loud cry she jammed it into the marines chest. "If you survive this tell Nobunaga he'll get his" then she took a dancing stance. "Hira Hira: Raqs Sharqi five feet" as she said this her body began to sway, most of the swaying coming from her hips slowly petals began to separate from her waist as bit by bit her hips and waist was a furious ring of blowing petals.<br><br>(Not brilliant but meh)

				"Hmm...none of these blades can even compare to my Kusanagi..." Raiga said to himself as he shook his head, leaving the shop. As soon as he came out, he found himself staring down several marines with guns pointed at him. "...Oh...Hi guys." Raiga said to them. "Raiga the dragon. We've been ordered to take you and your crew into custody." Said the commanding officer. Raiga simply shook his head. "We're not going to be that easy to catch, I'm afraid." Raiga said to the officer, smirking. The order to fire was given, and Raiga quickly pulled out his Kusanagi blade, thrusting it into the ground, forming a wall between himself and the gunshots, which bounced off the gigantic sword. Some Ricocheted into other soldiers. The marines that didn't get hit by the ricochet had to reload, and Raiga took this chance to strike. Gripping his blade, rather clumsily, he pulled it back out and swung the blade almost like a paddle, swatting the marines away and to the side. His blade disappeared as quickly as it had come, and Raiga took off running through Logue town, knowing the Marines would be right on his tail.

				Trying his best to fit in under his cloak, Kaizokusame mingled throughout the people of Logue Town.&nbsp; Marines seemed to be scattering everywhere giving Kai the feeling that something was not right.&nbsp; "I need to find Kimi and Rai so we can get outta here, I don't like this place." he said to himself as Rai came running into view.<br><br>"Hey, Rai, over here!" he shouted waving his hands and wondering why Rai would be running in a place like this.&nbsp; the answer came to just as fast as he had thought of the question, a squad of marines in hot pursuit not far behind Rai.<br><br>Kai times his strike, he waits for Rai to pass and when the first Marine is close enough he strikes.&nbsp; Spinning he slings his forearm around and shouts, "Wantō Giri" (a shark fin attack) as his fin slams into the front marine, knocking him into his comrades.&nbsp; <br><br>Kai bolts after Rai, running awkwardly (running is not a fishman strength) "Hey! Have you seen Kimi?" he asked Rai.
