Akieen Cloud

Indaya glanced here and there as she led him to her clan home, as they entered she pushed him against a wall and whispered to him. "Listen, don't start anything, it would be hard for me to stand against my entire clan." "And why would you go against your clan?" "I told you I want peace. I won't let you get into a fight and kill any of my clan." She pulled a ribbon from her hair and tied his wrists lightly together, looking up at him her eyes met his and she looked away, a light blush sneaking across her cheeks. She looked up as a few of the elder members ran up to her and looked at Lycerus. "You finally got the leader. Good we can kill them all now." "There will be no deaths, he has traded himslef for his men, I am keeping him alive and well, that means healthy, for questioning." "Indaya, you do realize the uproar this will casue in the clan?" "Yes, but I think that they will not challange me." She led Lycerus through her home and to the cells, she opened the door and let his wrists go, she stepped back as he went into the cell and the wlaked in after him. "I think this is a small problem...my caln will declare clan kill on me soon." She handed him the wide ribbon and nodded. "To keep the sweat from your eyes, it gets hot down here. I'll bring food and water at anytime you wish, only ever ask me, the others will not hesitate to poison you." "You show concern for an enemy." "Call it what you want. I just think a friendship could arise here if we let it and I'm willing." She gently put a hand on his shoulder. "You'll not be in here long. You have my word." She walked out and closed the door sighing. She walked away and took a member by the collar. "If anyone goes near that cell other then me, I'll cut their throat. So make sure they don't." He saluted and stood gaurd. Late in the next night Lycerus looked up to see her smiling through the bars of his cell. "Time to go." She opened the cell and walked him through the hold till he was at the back entrance. "Your men are outside waiting for you, go quickly. Do not be seen." "Why are you doing this?" "Becasue I want the deaths to end, I want peace, and I feel like you could do it." "Why me?" "I do not know. But the funny thing is, I trust you." She took his hand and shook it lightly, then throwing caution to the wind she stood up on tip toe quickly and kissed him on the cheek. "Now go." She pushed him and the shut the door behind her.

Lie closed her eyes and leaned back smileing. "Well, been a while for that, if you rmember the last time you kissed me was on the dock just outside Berniom, when you and your dad left. You just kissed me and ran, you doing that this time Dante?" He shook his head. "No, I can't really go anywhere either Lie." She smiled and nodded. "True." He kissed her agian and she felt her body lean into his and felt him eract by wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her close. She put a hand on his chest and pushed him back slowly. "We can't Dante, not here, not now. I have the crew to worry about right now, and the storm thats just outside this cove ready to kill us all. It's not time yet. To soon, I mean...jsut not ready." "I understand Lie." "Thank you Dante. There's just to much at stake at this moment." She kissed him this time, lingering and tender. "Not saying I wouldn't like to...it's just not a good time." "You don't have to explain your-self Lie...I understand." "I know." She pulled him down and pinned him to the bed, straddeling his waist. "You know, I could probably still kick your ass today. If the storm is still there in the morning, how bout' a good sparring match? Just to see where I stand now." "I wouldn't want to hurt you." "Yeah, right. You hurt me? You wouldn't hurt me if your life depended on it." "Like you said though...we did hate each other." "Yes Dante. Did." She leaned down and kissed im once more before rolling on her side and curling up beside him on her cot. "Better stop now before we can't." She smiled with him and sighed. "So sparring match tomarrow. Deal?" "Fine, deal." "Good, time for bed." He went to move and she yanked him bck down. "You sleep here tonight. It get cold in here and I need some extra heat. Not only that. I've missed you." "I've missed you too Lie." she closed her eyes and let sleep take her as the night set the rest of the way in on them.

Lie picked up a pebble and threw it hitting Dante in the back of the head on purpose. "As much trouble as he wants to give me I suppose." She looked up at Jem and sighed. "We knew each other as kids...we I suppose were friends back then but now..." She threw another pebble and frowned when he caught it and threw it inot he water. "He's just a jerk." She sat and watched Dante and sulked, but after a few minutes she decided that she would wade out and find soemthing to do. She floated on her back as teh moon rose slowly, her shirt now slightly trasnparent from the warm water. She straightend and made her way back to the ship ringing her shirt out as she went. she shot a sideways glance at Dante before she boarded and went to her cabin to dry and change again.

OKay, ow I think I'll be the only one really answer this the way I think the kid wanted it answered, he never asked what turnes you on when you look for people. IF that were teh case I could say My ifance' and be doen but nope. what turns mwe on is being bitten. It's a fetish that my fiance gaot me into when we first started dating and it grew on me, being bitten and then there are a few others, I have a spot on my neck that wne kissed, big one there, nad weird as it may be, hands and eyes. I absolutly adore my fiance's hands and eyes, he has theose big gentl hands that make me feel safe and his eyes, he talks with his eyes, I can read everything I want right there. so thats mine.

Lie stepped out onto the deck and sighed as a cool breeze blew back her hair. The cove was small but it held a peace to it tht she had never known. Climbing down she saw Dante looking out and she had to smile to her-slef he was thinking, he always got that look on his face when he thought, even as a kid. She waded through the shallows and stopped next to him. He didn't seem to notice but she didn't care. "Your father did he make it out of the ship before it went down?" "Does it look it?" "Just asking, my father did, he was on drift wood...he died from his burns." She saw a flicker in his eys and took in a deep breath. She grabed his hand and yanked him towards the ship. "We need to talk, alone. And don;t you worry it's nothing nasty. It's about what happen that night when the Royal Crown burt down int he water." She dragged him ontot he ship and into her quaters. "Dante, something happend that nioght, it was when we were leaving this very cove. Do you remember? It was like another ship had fired but there was nothign there." "The cooks left the stoves on. That's what happen." "Then what was the blast I heard? Explainthat one genius." "Powder checks for the cannons. Look are you always this paranoid?" "Are you always such a dickhead?" "Around people I don't like? Yes." "Figures. Look something happened that day Dante. I know it." "Your the only one then. Nothing happened, it weas a freak accident. That's all." "Believe what you want Dante, I know something happened. I know." He moved for the door and she grabbed his arm lightly. "Do you really hate me so much now Dante?" "Lie things can't rewind, we changed to much, we're not the kids we were." "I know that. But can't we still try to be friends?" "Friends always lead other places Lie, I came to protect you, thats all." "But why did you come to protect me Dante? If it's just casue my father asked you to then you can get the hell out. I don't need a babysitter." "Lie..." "Get out." He walked out and she leaned on the door fighting the tears that wanted to flow but she didn't let them. He really wasn't the same person that he had been, she woundered what could have happened to make him so cold. So cold to not even want to be her freind, or so he said. She walked out to see him standign there but walked past him and back down to the beach. Night was closeing in and she sat on a sand dune and watched the sun set on the alm water outside the reach of the storm on the other side of the cove. She chanced a galnce at Dante and saw him watching her, she frowned at him and turned her back on him looking at the sand she took deep breathes trying to let her anger get the better of her.

Indaya scratched her chin thoughtfully. "The leader of the Black Dragons for his men...is it a fair trade Lycerus?" "That is up to you Indaya." A shiver ran up her spine as he spoke her name. She hook her head shaking it off and looked at him. "Take your men and get off of my territory. I do not want you. I want peace. I want to walk to the market and not worry about my weapons becasue I would be safe." He nodded. "I'll release them and have them meet you here. Afterwards, we will meet only in public and as friends. Beside, how do I know that this isn't smoe clever trcik for you to get information on my clan?" she walked up to him and seemed to challange him with her own minimal height to his. "I will not be made a fool of." "You do that by letting me go." "Then come with me, and trade your-self. I'll not let my clan touch you." She began to lead the way back to her clan home.

It was another day for the students at Brutises School for delincuents, lunch was beign srved and as usual things were hot. Not the food but the students, the teenagers in the school. Fights were beginign to form everywhere and things were about to get ugly for a younger boy that seemd to have just but admitted. Surrounded by six older boys the small blonde looked frightened but ready for the fight when a teenage girl stepped in. "Do we have a problem here fellas?" The larger boy leered at her and leaned in as if to kiss her but spoke. "Your in the way Ty. It's impolite to get between people who are intorducing themselves." "Beating on a person doesn't sound like an introduction to me." She flipped back her brown hair and smirked. It was apparent she didn't intend to move. "I'll make you move girl." "Try it Kol and you'll see your-self in a trash can." He looked at her and laughed. "Lets find out." She saw the boy behind her move back to back and smiled as the fight got started more of her friends came to help. From the other side of the room a parol officer was watching, he nodded and went to the office giving the main officer theit files. "Are you sure these are the ones you wnat for this project?" "Yes Director, I"m positive. They seem to get along and this girl seems to be the jey to that. I think they could have a second chance in the real world." A drugie, a alcholholic and gang leader, and many more here who have society disorders, you think they could make it our there again?" "With the right help and guiedance yes. They could go back to school, get jobs. Those are the conditions. They each pitch in or they all come back here." "And the conditions?" "They must get a job, keep up good grades in thier studies, no smoking, no drugs, no alcholhol unless in the house and approved by me. they will live under one roof and share the same home. I will of corse be living with them to make sure that everything goes as planned. If one screws up they are all back here in this place." "Sounds like you have it figured oue\t Officer Dunly. I give you permission. Lets call these kids to the office and inform them they are getting a second chance at life. A second breath of fresh air." Okay, here'e the deal you are a delincuent that is attedning a correctional institute. You have been picked to go through a project that lets a selct few have another chance at life in the real world.

Lie let the minimal sun beam down on her looking out to the water they just came from, dark and black, dangerous, the way she liked it, but she wouldn't risk her crew. She sat up from being on her back and looked around Dante was sitting under a tree, his legs crossed, head down, he seemed in deep thought about something, she thought best not to disturb him. She looked around more and caught a glimps of Sano watching her, she smiled and rolled her eyes. [I]'That's the problem with being a female captin,all the guys fall for you.'[/I] She stood and walked around streching her legs, this was where her and her father used to spend their time together. She looked back at Dante and sighed. [I]'What was father thinking, I believe there is moer to this arranged marriage story then he lets on...let's find out shall we?'[/I] She slowly walked over to Dante and stood above him, he wasn't asleep, she could see that her-self. She flopped onto the sand infront of him and waved a hand infront of his face, she jumped only slightly as he grabbed it. She blinked at him, he wasn't even looking at her, he had moved so quick;y but his hand was gentel on her wrist. "what do you wnat?" "About my father and this whole arranged marriage thing-" "I'm not marriring you." "Never said you were. I was going to ask what's the reasoning behind it." "I can't tell you that." "Why not?" "You and I are not in love, therefore, I can not tell you." He opened his eyes then and looked her over lingering slightly but not yeilding any emotion. "You know what Father thought I'd see in you I'll never know." "Likewise captin. Why our parents thought I would want a spoiled brat like you will forever baffle me." "Than why don't you leave!?" "I have a duty to fulfill!" "Screw your duty! You hate me so much then get out of here!" "I never said I hate you!" She stood quickly and kicked sand onto his lap. "Well you could've fooled me." She spun on her heel and stalked away, she climbed the rope ladder back onto the ship and went to her cabin, going through her trunk she pulled out a old black and white picture of her father and another man, he was tall and handsome...he was Dante's father, she could tell by the face. "Why did you two do this to us? We always hated each other more then the world around us." She looked into the background of the picture to see her-self as a little girl wresteling with a young boy her age...Dante. "I never thought I would see him again...he's so diffrent than he was then...so much more...collected." She threw the picture down and smiled as a seashell came into veiw, she picked it up and smiled more. ```````````````````````````` "Hey Lie! Check this out!" "What do you want jerk?" "Will you shutup and just come over here." Lie walked over and gapped at the shell in Dante's hand. It was a pale blue and shimmered like a gem. "Wow...how did you find that?" "I stepped on it, ther's another piece there." Lie picked it up and held it to the sun. "You think it's worth anything you think?" "What's with you and treasure?" "I'm a pirate, that's what we trhink about." "Your not a pirate, your a girl!" "Shutup Dante!" "Make me!" Lie tackeld the boy to the ground and began to wrestle him to the ground again. she pinned him and smiled. "I win again." "I'll get stronger then you won't beat me." They looked up as their fathers called them back and both made sand fly as they raced back to their fathers. ````````````````````````````````` Lie sighed and leaned on her bed. "He's so diffrent now, yet so much the same. It's odd to think our father's knew how close we got sailing together. Or how worried I was when we wnet under that he was dead along with the rest of the ship's crew. But now...I have to act as if I don;t remember him. Just to save my-self from huging him. Though he doesn't make that so hard, hugging him now would be like hugging a catus." She sighed again and let the sound of the waves come and go through her cabin relax her. "This is gonna be a rough trip." She looked at the picture once more and smiled. "father, give me strength, and the patience to deal with him...I feel I'm going to need it."

OOC: Sorry to ne gone so long, things have been really hectic latley. I'll get Cain back as well here soon today if he ever wakes up ^^. Lie was under the waves and holding her breath as long asd possible, she knew that they were on their way, and she knew she easn't going anywher either, her rope made sure of that. She felt strong arms hauling her back by the rope around her waist and was surprised that in no time she was pulled back up to the deck along with the two that had dived in to save her. sano looked at her through soaked hair. "You have got to be more careful." "I always am. Lets get this thing to shore and take a break I've been to this Island before, it has a good cove we can huddle in." She went back to the helm and steered the heavy ship to the cove and smiled as they past the rocks and into calm waters and silnet area. Sano and Jem smiled, Jem looked up. "I don't think I know this cove, it's nice, does it have a name?" "It sure does. Hang Man's Cove, hats off gents." They past a large rock that had nooses and skeletons hanging from it. Jem swallowed. "Are you nuts Lie...this is where they hang the pirates and murderers." "Niot anymore...the place was siad to be haunted." Saqno nodded. "the ghosts came back to kill the king and get revange. I'm with Jem on this...we should turn back. It's not safe." "It's the safest place around. I stayed here for three weeks and I'm alive. We'll be fine." Dante looked at her and smirked. "How could you survive a three week stay at an abandonded island, no food, no water?" "The cove is full of fish and lobsters, clams, oysters...take your pick, there's a stream that run straight through that is fresh water. My father brought me here as well on one of our raids. I'm not ashamed to be a pirate, and as such the pirate of old protect me here with this haven of a sanctuary. Mow if you excuses me, I have my dinner to catch, and don;t worry about swimming, there's no current and the water stays warm year round. ven in winter. So enjoy a break already." she stripped out of her pants and shirt to reveal a two piece black swim suit underneathe. She waded out and then dived in, her arms making long strokes, she went under and came back up with two of the biggest lobsters the crew had evr seen. "There's a cave under that rock, if you want one or two how wever many, go get them, since the water's warm, they're easy to handle." she walked through the water and back to shore taking a long leaf she stripped it into pices and made timber, taking her pistol she used the spark and soon \had a good fire going, placing her clothes down beside the fire she went back to the shyip and came back in shorts and a cut off shirt tied just under her breasts. "Well, I think we landed oursleves in a hurricane out there, so make yourselves at home, we'll be here for the next day or so, they last longer out in the water then they do on land." Ron looked at her. "Is there anychance any of it will get inhere?" "Is it in here now?" "No." "There's your answer." She went under a aplm tree and began to eat the lobster she had caught and cooked just moments before.

Lie tapped Ron on the shoulder and smiled slightly as he jumped. "I see it, I alreasy tolde Jem to head for it, You should probably go back down to the Deck, I'm going down my-self. Get everyone back to their cabins, I'll get us there. Don't hesitate. Just do it." He nodded and she climbed down after him carefully, reaching the deck she watched as Ron and the others began to get below deck. She had just begaun to run to the helm when the biggest wave hit, it hit her hard and she went down. She gritted her teeth as she slid across the deck and hit the side. "Damnit!" She looked up and cursed again as the next wave hit sending her over the side and into the surf.

Indaya arrived only an hour after leaving and saw with a hint of surprise that the Dragon LEader was waiting for her. She let a small smile curl on her lips. "I see your reputation perceeds you." He inclined his head slightly and looked back up at her. "You speak of peace between the two clans, not that this would not please me as well, it is not that simple, we have our clans to think about. A choice like this could lead to Clan Kill, and that is not something I want to face Dragon." She sat down under the tree and sighed. "Indaya, that is my name, we were never properly introduced to one another...we did not have much privacy to speak as we do here." She looked up at the clear night sky and let another sigh escape her. "This city has been my home for years, I'd do anything to protect it and keep it whole...I just never thought that it would mean tearing it apart with rival gangs...it pains me to see the city like this." She looked back at him and let her eyes take him in. "Your reputation eggsaterates your apperance. It makes you sound like an ugly old man." She let a giggle escape her throat not noticeing the shift in his eyes as he listened to her. "So, speak your proposition Dragon."

Lie couldn't help but smile, this was her kind of crew. "Alright, Jem, take over the helm, we have to get the safety boays down so they don't go overboard with the waves, we also gotta go down to the lower deks and make sure we don't have any leaks, she's gettin slugish. Lastly I need a fool big enough to go topside to the crow's nest and watch for shallows and land masses that'll sneak up on us in this weather. Hope to it now." She stopped Azuroth and slapped a hand on his shoulder. "Good to know your on our side here." She rushed past with the others as Jem took her spot.

Indaya continued walking. "Talk to me in three hours, like i said. We;ll disscuss things there." She chanced a glance back and then took off in a full run, heading straight for the high point, not wanting to hear the ridicule of her clan.

Indaya recgonized the young panter infront of her, Vergil, as inexperienced with fighting as he was with women. "Vergil, get out, this is a dissusion between me the the leader of the Black Dragons. Now, go." With wide eyes the young man nodded and ran off, INdaya turned to the Black Dragon leader and frowned. "You expect me to return those we have taken from you but yet you threaten my younger men? Seems an unfair trade Dragon." She was tense since the attack he had just shown to her, but she was aware of her strnegths, her greatest was speed, thankful for that she let her body go into her fighting mode, just in case. This meeting could indeed turn for the wost. Losse and relaxed she looked at him squarely. The most feared man in the city and she was only two feet from him, needless to say a thrill rush was trying to take effect on her but she held it back. "I think we should talk some place where we will be less likely to be inturupted...the high point in the northern city. It's been abandoned fro years. Three hours. See you there, then we shall speak of this agreement you want to establish. Till then." She turned and raised a hand in farewell then walked out slowly.

lie ran to the center mast, the one closest to the helm and tied a rope around it then the other end around herself. Grabbing the helm she held on tightly keeping the ship steady. This is a big one! Most likely to last for a few hours I suggest that you all get inside before it gets to bad!" They looked at her as if she were crazy. "A good captin never abandons their ship!...That's what father always taught me." She held on tightly as a wave washed over the deck and hit them hard, the large ship rocked and tipped, Sano looked up at her skepticly. "She can't take this, she'll tip." "She can hold it off." Lie put her chin to her chest and braced as the waved continued to crash onto the deck, getting larger and larger with every hit. "I thought I told you two to get inside before it gets to bad, you too Ron! Do it, this is an order from your captin!" She felt the breath rush from her lungs as a heavy wave hit her in the back. "Damn!" She looked down to see that they too had tied themselves to the mast. "Stupid fools..."

OOC: Okay everyone, I'm sorry I've been gone for a while but me nad my mother have moved, yet AGAIN, hopefully the last move I'll make is the one when I go home to my husand with our son. One can only hope... Lie looked at the deck, it was slick with foam, not good, that would make for bad footing when they had to put the sails up...she had a bad feeling about all this. She looked at Ron and rolle dher eyes. "I'll tell you now you sick drunk, I'll throw you overboard, I can't afford to have some drunk incompitant fool in this ship. I hate to tello you but that's not how it works here., Get sober and get with the program. Which means back to your cabin. I'll be doing a check, so you better get rid of that alchohol you have buddy, and by that I do not mean drink it. " She ran up the length of the ship as the wind began to get stronger, she took a hold on the helm and looked out as the sky turned black. "Shit...Everyone get to your cabins NOW!" She put her head down and prepared for the heavy storm.

Lie looked at him and frowned. "whatever, I still say my father was drunk when he said it. What ever he thought I would see in you he was mad." She turned and looked at the ship as the sun rose to high noon and sighed. This was her home now for the next several months, maybe even year, she had better get used to this. She looked back as the wind turned her hair away from her face and back towards the shore they had lelft only what felt like minutes ago. she blinked and frowned. "Storm...not good, I thought the sea was supposed to be clear till tongiht...that's what it looked like...damn." She spun on Dante and walked past him. "Help me, we have to get everyone in a cabin and soon, the wind changed to fast for it to be some light rain. We're fixing to be hit hard." She looked back and saw him still standing there. "Look I don't like you either but the stick can come out now. I have a crew to worry about." She turned and walked further away towards the sails.

Lie looked at him shocked and was thankful when Sano let out a low whistle and left them alone. "Your lieing. I was never promised to anyone, my father told me to find a good man and marry for love. He would never do that to me. You know that's not a very good pick up line buddy." She looked him in the eye and saw that he was serious. "If that's true then why let me find out now?" He shook his head. "I don't know, but I have no idea why my father whould give me such a air head for a wife." "Hey! That's not right! You don't evern know me!" He shrugged and looked away. "First impression means everything." "Than I supppose you really do have a stick up your ass?" He looked at her but she merely raised an eye brow and put her hands on her hips waiting for a comeback.

lie looked at Dante and sighed as he didn't answer her, she shook her head and walked a little ways past him befroe reachingup and tapping his cheek lightly. "You know, you really oughta lighten up. You tend to live longer that way." She walked away and over towards Astroth. "So I hear you have a thing against pirates." "And if I do?" "You need to get over it. Almost half of this crew is was or has been a pirate or been part of piracy. Get used to seeing it. If you can't be under the command of a pirate I suggest you get off now while you can still make out what's left of the coast line. If you think you can deal than shut your trap about being all high and mighty. There's only one major rule on this piece of wood and that's me. You don't like it you can kiss my ass. I'm the daughter of a pirate and I am a pirate my self. Deal with it or get off at the next port. I'll have nothing interfereing with the way this ship is handeled. Understood?" "You have no right, you don't know what they-" "Your right I don't have an idea and quiet frankly I don;t give a damn. They could have cut off your dick and made you feed it to a dog for all I care. This is a ship and to be a ship the crew has to work together. So drop the smartass, tough guy act and move your alzy ass to doing something. Just becasue we here are pirates does not mean that we are as crule and as black hearted as the others that are in the same perfession. One person in a society doesn't paint the whole neightborhood for the others to follow. What makes a painting a paint are the diffrent colors and how they work together to make everything fit in place. Get with the program and be a sailor." She walked away and stood next to Dante and strange feeling of familiarity suddenly flooding her mind. "Tell me something, and be true. Have we ever met or crossed paths in anyway in our past?"

Lie streched as she emerged from her quarters to see everyone, or almost everyone on the ship already and the sun finally getting into the sky. "Well looks like I slept in, everyone here?" She looked around, the creey dude wasn't here yet and it seemed as everyone else was. "Oh, well looks like enough are, I suppose if people didn't want to be here they shouldn't have asked or offered their services." she turned and saw Dante looking at her coldy. "Oh, I suppose I was wrong. Well then since we're all here I suggest you all pull out the sails and get this thing moving unless you wish to stay here. Clarice I'll put you at the helm for now, you seem to know navigation pretty well. Alxe, Sano help me get the main sails out and full, we need to get out of here and as fast as possible. I have a feeling if we don't we're to miss a good wind." She worked withthem till they were out on the open water and sighed as the sea spray filtered across her face. This was what she missed the most. "Alrighty everyone, there's grub int eh mess hall to the left of the captins quarters, help yourself." they seemed to scatter and like a shot they were all in the mess hall save for Dante and Sano. She looked at both and felt a tension rise and she broke it by motioning for Sano to go ahead and eat. He nodded and did so. She jumped a rope and swung down to stand beside Dante. "So, what exactly are you leaving behind? Or what are you moving twards? I mean what brought you to sail away fromthat place?"

Indaya simply closed her eyes yet she felt the slight panic rise in her heart, he truly was more then they said. "No I do not wish to fight but if I must then I will. If I feel that my life is threatened I will lash out, as would any person." She looked at him and smiled gently, yet behind the smile he saw a deadly fighter. She took a deep breath to rest her racing heart and let it go as she continued to look at him. "By what means do you wish to talk to me over? What could the leader of the Black Dragons possibly have to say to me that I would be interested in?" She saw the question i n his eyes begfore he even spoke it. "And yes I am the leader of the White Panthers. Make noe mistake of that."

OCC: I'm back but I'll not be posting as frequently for a time, Thanks. Indaya looked around and sighed this was it. She pushed Kashka back as he tried to advance forward. "I go alone." "You will be killed." "I said, I go alone." She shoved him back and walked inside, she saw a lone figure sitting the middle and took a deep breath. She went to him and poked him in the shoulder causing him to turn and look at her, he blinked and stared then cleared his throat. Indaya was tense and she had her hands on her weapons tightly, she had heard stories about this leader and was taking a big risk just being this close to him.

Lieanda looked at them and nodded. "If this is everybody, lets go.I'll show you wich dock to go to and then you'll meet me there in the morning." "Why can we not leave tonight?" "Because, the water is choppy byond all reasoning tonight and it's suicide for even the best of sailors to try it. Thats why. If you want you can bunk here and get your stuff ready for the morning. If you have other things to do at your home I suggest you take care of them before you leave for we aren't comong back." They all nodded and looked at one another, Lie looked at them and blinked. "By the way, my name is Lieanda, you may call me Lie or captin, which ever you prefer." They all nodded, she lokoed at Dante. "And no more sneak ups, that was creepy." She walked away, feeling alittle better knowing that she had help going with her.
