Serious: Blizzard Pirates Chapter 4: The first one towards glory! (CLOSED)

Roko smiled at Angelica, so that's what she wanted. She wanted to feel in family, apparently, she wanted an atmosphere where she would feel loved and comfortable. Roko would give her what he wanted, he knew that she was this way because of her past, and they needed to soften her slowly. He looked at her working, she was a really good doctor.

"That's alright. Our cook can prepare something for you."-Roko said. -"You might find her in the kitchen. Wasabi?!?!?!"

Roko awaited for a response.

Wasabi was in the kitchen sobbing on the floor. She was eating a case of brownies. The thought of actually killing a person was too much for her. Wasabi walked toward the medic room holding a tray of her brownies "Is seph okay? Anybody wants some? They are fresh from the oven." she said. Wasabi saw that all of her crewmates were hurt.

"Meeee!!!! I want some!!" shouted Laxus in a very reckless way. He is half-regret that he shout it, because he was a stranger who get on the ship for random cause. He would look like in an idiot now that he just call out for a food that are only for her crew. He will join the crew, somehow. The captain look steong, and reliable. Whatever, he will think about it later. He's very hungry through the journey he take, and quite tired too. "May i?" asked Laxus.

The day was young, and the sky was mostly clear. Zarath sat alone on a bench near the middle of the island. The day had seemed gloomy to Zarath. What could a boy ask for when he was all alone in a big world. Zarath had just made by reverse mountain with a big steel raft, with a wood model just inside of the raft. Now, the raft was tossed aside like a broken rag doll. Zarath thought to himself that he had just gone through hell, and made it alive with pure luck. Zarath no longer had a raft, but pieces of wood strapped together. Sitting on a bench all alone, the wind gusted at Zarath's face. A bounty poster had rammed it's way sticking onto his face. Zarath took off the bounty poster and stared at it. "150,000? Who do they think I am?" , Zarath said ripping apart the paper. Zarath stomped his way off the bench as he shifted his arm towards the bench. Hot boiling lava dripped from under his sleeve pouring onto the ground. Hot steam rises from the ground as the rotation counties. Zarath slashed lava over the bench, burning not only the bench but the ripped pieces of paper. Zarath left a several burnt marks, but no one was around to give any proof about it. Zarath began to take a walk towards the dock where ships would have set sail. Zarath knew if he had fell into the water he would be pretty much screwed. Zarath stood up on the bank away from the sea staring off into space. Zarath had a feeling down his spine that something was near.

Angelica wasn't pleased, not one bit. She had demanded food and no one had brought it to her. Before the virus, she didn't have to lift a finger to get what she wanted. Servants did anything and everything she wanted. Being from a family full of doctors was a great benefit. "Son of a bitch." Angelica said stomping over to the cook. Angelica grabbed the brownies and downed them all. In an instant the food began to energize her body; her life return speeding up the process. "Don't worry about it, I inspected that marines body. He died of a heart attack, that was in no way connected to you." Angelica said coldly.

On the beach full of the discarded and broken marine ships, there stood one Pirate ship in the middle. On that ship, A man wearing a black fedora, A white silk shirt stained red in certain areas and leather pants stood on the deck. The man chuckled as he took a sip of wine, one of the many things he stole from the nearby town and leaving it bone dry on most food and drinks. The same man who managed to gather a small collection of ships on his beachfront and kept it hidden from the Navy.

The man watched as the ship approached closer to his 'turf', and smiled. With one movement of his arm, A deep beautiful tune played out from below him where a Women slightly older then him played a cello. The sound was loud and carried over to the ship and the island as it was joined by a sound that started faint on the ship, but grew louder as the ship drew near. The chorus of broken singing joined the cello as best it could as hostage marines tied to the decks of their broken ships started singing out "For HE's A joLLy goOD CaptaIn.... For he is a JolLy good CaptAIn..."

As Angelica injected Victoria's leg repairing her cell's her leg was as good as new as she came too she smiled at Angelica weakly.

"Thank you ever so much =)"

Deciding to stay on the ground for the moment to re-cooperate Victoria smiled at her wonderful crew mates.Then suddenly blushed from embaressment and stood up. And slowly moved to her room.

Roko was worried about how Wasabi would react to Seph's death, but there was nothing they could do if he had died of something unrated to them: a heart attack with unknown origins. He saw this guy he had noticed becore bu disn talk to, apparently he had appeared when the battle was almost over.

"And who would you happen to be?"-Roko asked as he walked out of the room to the deck, there was a beautiful melody coming from the island.-"And also... What brings you here?"

He had expected for Laxus to follow him. He climbed to the quarterdecks and took the wheel, directing the ship to the island, it gently approached it and Roko saw a man and a mermais between a series of marine destroyed ships. The mermaid was playing the melody and singing.

Roko threw the anchor down.

"Crew! We're at the island!"

Damn! I thought it's a first come, first serve. That woman ate all of it!! What kind of woman, that eat food so fast!? Maybe she's an okama. murmured Laxus, looking toward Angelica eating all the food. As he watch Angelica, Roko came out from his room asking him some question. He listen to the question and attempt to answer, but Roko had walk away again. He follow Roko, as he heard him saying something again. Arrive, eh? Sound good murmured Laxus as he smile. He alway want to come here, to Grandline. He wait for Roko to end all his action and now that his action have end, he finally speak up. "I'm your crewmate" said Laxus as he smile toward Roko. It might sound silly, but Laxus have evidence that he's part of the crew.

As the ship dropped anchor, Romeo cackled a sadist level of grin. Not 30 seconds after the anchor hit, Explosions burst from the decks of the ruined ships as the Navy prisoners were blown to kingdom come. After the smoke settled, those remaining did not seem very 'alive'. The horrible singing of the marines were gone and the only thing left was the cello playing....

Tyren came flying and stopped on Roko's right shoulder, what a cool pet he had. Roko looked back at Laxus as he said that he was Roko's crewmates. That could only mean that he wanted to join the crew. Roko looked at him from the shoes to the face: he didnt seem like a bad person.

"My crewmate, you say? So you want to be our nakama-"-but suddenly the marineships that were all around the beach exploded, horrible screams of pain burst into the air, but after some time they all stopped. The only thing that was left to listen was the melody of the mermaid and the sound of the sea.-"What the hell just happened? -Roko had turned to look at the ships and then again at Laxus- What's your name?"

Zarath let down the hood of his jacket as he raised his head to the sky. Was anybody out there at all. Zarath thought that this island was no fun, but he was the silent type of guy. Zarath began walking towards the sea bank where he heard loud explosions. "Marines?" he said out loud. But the marines wasn't striking, they were getting destroyed in return. One by one the marine ships got busted from explosions, Zarath had his eyes wide open seeing such destruction. "What the hell?", Zarath said out loud. The boy had not seen such destruction before, ever in his life. Not ever since he was a small child. Zarath didn't care for the marines, but he didn't like the dreadful screams and cries filling the air. "Magma Lifter..." Zarath said to himself as boiling magma formed from his hands into a surf board shape. The magma hardened and cooled. Zarath stood on the board as he began to fly to the ship near the dock. Seeing that the marines were helpless, he had now just heard a soft cello play. By now, it had stopped. Zarath and his board came closer to the ship. "Oi!" Zarath said as he landed on the head piece of there ship. Zarath gripped the board and squeezed it as it dissolved into pieces of ash. Zarath looked down at the ship wondering if anyone would notice him. Zarath's sliver hair stood out as he once again called out, "Oi!!!".

Ted and King Zastur stared on in confusion for a while at the sudden stream of new comers appeared, to which Ted asked; Ummm I don't think they were here when we went up the mountain. Are they new?, to which King Zastur looked on with annoyance. Thy both then gaspd in suprise as their new doctor heald up he onjuries from the sharp bone were healed in mere seconds, though while Ted was thankful Zastur was still suspicous of the woman."It's sometimes worrying how trusting the captain is. Ah! We need to collect a reward for the seagulls! Ted go fetc as much fish as ou can carry. Peck! Hurry up you lazy Southbird and lead that new doctor lass to the seagulls!", the king ordered. Shortly afterwards King Zastur was startled by the sudden apperance of another new comer and the sounds of a marine shp being destryoed, to wich he let out a frightened squeak beforecoughing and bellowing pompously; "Who on earth decides to so rudely disgrace thefigure head of our ship? Speak, peasent!"
Ted the Hiking Bear complied quickly without a word, and rushed over to the kitchen where he wet up to Wasabi and then attmpted some mime to communicate with her, where he imitated a fish, then aeagull and then pointed at his mouth as the universal signal for feeding. Peck the southbird was watching from above for the time being, doing his best to tend to the seagulls, and flew down imedietly to get Angelica's attention squaking an motionin he to follow him.

Zarath sat there eyes crossed as he bent down, looking down at the man who had just spoken. "Peasant? Isn't that a little harsh? Some people are roman catholic " Zarath teased. "Well if you don't want me, I can go down.." Zarath said smiling. Zarath jumped over above the ship flipping 3 times in mid-air and landing on the ship. Zarath then stood among the everyone who was on the deck. Zarath looked around, there was many talented and some average local pirates. Very talented indeed, whoever was the captain was sworn to be one of the luckiest men alive. Zarath's stomach growled. Seeing new people had brought up his appetite, it's a weird sense of behavior. Zarath was REALLY low on food. He had nothing left. Thought, for Zarath he was somewhat interested in joining a pirate crew. But, he didn't want to join any average pirate crew. He also just didn't want to join off the bat. He wanted a story to go with it. Zarath held up his fist smiling, "What's up?".

Laxus watch as a Falcon fly and stop on Roko's shoulder. Pet, huh? Sound cool. murmured Laxus looking over the Falcon. He listen to Roko's replied but then his attention was caught by the sudden explosion. He turn back to the marine ship which was exploded. The one that did it...I'm impressed. murmured Laxus as he smile. What a weird guy he is...smiling all of a sudden, talking something ridiculous. Well..the ephitet, Joker really fit him after all. He heard Roko's question, as he quickly answer it. My name is Laxus. Umm..Laxus Kaiser. People call me by the nickname, Joker. Well that's the bully from the past, that call by that name. answered Laxus. And you? By the way, what's the crew name? he continued.

Roko was very interested in the mermaid and the man taht were in the beach, it could've only been them that cause all of this destruction. And then this other man appeared out of nowhere jumping around the ship...

"Dont worry King! It's alright, you dont have to make him leave." -then Roko turned to Laxus. -"So your name is Laxus? Alright, then I'll call you Joker like you want me to. My name is Roko Cloud, and I'm the captain of the Blizzard Pirates."

Then Roko turned to other guy.

"And you are?"

"Zarath....Just Zarath....Most people call me Full heat, but I dislike the name.." Zarath spoke out towards the captain of the crew. Zarath then walked towards the captain smiling as he lowered his fist looking into his eye. Zarath then thought of something...

"Roko cloud is it?" Zarath said smirking. Taking a look at the people near him, who else would have a silly name? Though Zarath is the silent type, he would speak again. "The captain of the Blizzard Pirates? How about you show me some of your skills?" Zarath said smiling.

Burning Molten lava fell from Zarath's sleeves reaching the floor as it shaped like a surf board, Zarath stood on it once again. The hot molten lava that was left over burned through the floor hitting the bottem ground. The lifter began to hover...

Roko smiled at Zarath. If he wanted to see hs abilities, he would see them.

"Tyren! Transform!" -Tyren flew from his shoulder into the air and flying towards the island, transformed in midair into a manticore and kept flying, he flung his tail, shooting a number of poisonous spikes towards a dead tree.- "Well done Tyren."

Then Roko took his broadsword from his back and placed the Thunder Crystal (for the people that dont know, the crystals are actually a camouflaged dials) and he performed the Thunder Vortex technique, shooting a blast of electricity to the same tree. The tree was broken in half by the impact of electricity and was left a little burnt.

Roko turned and looked at Zarath.

Every since they had gotten to the grandline, which had not been long. There had been one thing after another. People were coming out the wood works so to speak. They had just finished a battle and recruited some girl as there doctor now more people had arrived. Unlike the others Ruben walked away from the battle unscathed and would have delivered the finishing blow to that monter who was apparently one of the marines had it not been for Roko achieving it first.

No sooner then it took for a new training method come into his thoughts; suddenly he a wonderous sound not the singing but the melody that went a long with it. But then there was a large explosion.

Ruben having seen tyren flying away from the ship assumed that Roko had left the ship already. He had no attention of following after his captain like some scared guppy but Roko had happened to go in the same direction as music he had heard. Therefore when he arrived at the shore he found his captain standing infront of more people....

<M E R M A I D> "Oh and another fruit u s e r."

"Roko Cloud. Captain Roko, then. I like the crew name.." Said Laxus. He look at the other man, his name is Zarath. He somewhat surprise when the guy ask for him to show some skill. That's what he's been dying to know. He see the molten lava coming from the guy. "What a cool, strong and useful technique you have there! commented Laxus. He then watch Roko and Tyren skill. "Wow! You guy are awesome!" Laxus compliment as he clap his hand.

Roko jumped down from the ship. With this step, the Blizzard Pirates had officially started their journey through the grandline. Having some history from the West Blue and their adventures there, it was enough experience for them to be in a place like this. Roko and his crewmates were really strong and adept fighters, they gotten this strenght through hard training.

"Blizzard Pirates! We're officially in the first Grandline Island!!!"

Roko smiled at his crew as he saw Joker clap.
