The Beginning of a Journey

Lazuki couldn't believe she was going to do this. She pointed East, then started to blow air out of her mouth. She felt so silly. She was the terror of the seas. Pirates didn't even know if she was a spirit or not, thinking that a spirit cursed all pirates, yet she was doing this.

"So, Eastern Air Temple, right?" He then felt her breath on his face, for she was blowing in his face. He then heard Zehir, "Oh, I get you Lazuki. Sorry about that." He smiled, "So, we are off to see the mechanic! The wonder mechanic that's odd!"

Zehir had no idea what the last thing Gysu said meant, but she nodded and started following these two. She had nothing better to do anyway.

Lazuki smiled. She was content to have another to come with her. She shot an explosion in the air, not a violent one, but a big one in the direction of the temple. She tapped Gysu’s armor, signaling him to walk again, with the girl by their side.

"I guess that means we should walk forward." Gysu said, and so he started to walk forward, not mentioning anything about having to carry Lazukia around in his arms. He looked at Zehir, "So, any news on whatever happened to Alex? I mean, he just vanished without a trace. There is no way that is possible."

Zehir began walking along the other two with Gysu starting small talk about the past. He asked about Alex, even though he probably knew that she knew just as much as he did. "I'm not sure, he just disappeared in the middle of that ball you took us to" she said, remembering the events of that entire night and shuddering a bit.

Lazuki started to look around, because Zehir was talking to Gysu. She saw a ship. It was a pirate ship, a moderate size at that, probably full. She smiled a dark, evil grin, and jumped off of Gysu. She started to run towards the boat, determined to see each and every one die. She didn't care if Gysu and Zehir followed, but the need the ship, so she didn't blow it up just yet.

A pirate looked down from the boat, and his smile quickly faded. "This is the end of all of us." He said to his ship mates. One of them turned to him. "What is it this time? We run out of ale?" He asked. "No. The crimson spark is real. And climbing up our boat right now."

"I think that we better go after her," Gysu said as Lazuki jumped out of his arms. He was a little startled by the act, so he naturally fell back a bit. He looked at Zehir, "Shall we follow her?" He asked. Without even waiting for an answer, he rook off after her. Gysu saw her swim out to sea and he shuddered as she got onto the ship, he could never stand the things himself. What with him getting seasick and all.

Zehir was stunned when Lazuki ran away. Maybe Gysu was actually a kidnapper, and she was escaping, but then Zehir watched her run at a pirate ship and swim to it. Her kidnapper theory still made sense, but it was baseless and Zehir was too confused to think about it. While Gysu stopped at the sea, Zehir continued on, swimming to catch up to Lazuki and floundering up a ladder. She was hardly a swimmer, but she managed. Lazu was probably already in the middle of doing whatever she had in mind.

By the time Zehir got to the ship, all that was left was her and the captain. The deck looked like something out of a horror movie, skulls were ripped apart, jaws were ripped out, some of the jaws were in another pirates skull. Some had their whole lower or upper bodies completely missing. A few was sliced completely in half. The Captain started to scramble away, but Lazuki stomped deep into his chest, breaking his ribs. "Please... " He looked at Zehir. "Help...Me..." She punched into his stomach twice, the second piercing it. She pulled his organs out, one by, one, hoping he felt every wonderful second. She turned back to Zehir a demented, evil smile on her face, stained with blood.

Gysu looked over and he saw a small boat, "Why didn't they just use this to get on over there?" He mused to himself, as he walked over to it. He got into it, the boat started rocking side to side. Gysu's stomach started churning, he was never the sea fairing type. He puked over the side of the boat and he started using the oars to row his way on over to the ship, once there he climbed it. He got to the top and he looked around, "Lazuki... I guess you really don't like pirates, huh?" He walked on over to the pirate captain. "This is Black Dog. He used to be worth three thousand copper pieces. Now I don't have any money to purchase food for our trip." He turned around and looked at Lazuki, his armor giving off the look of a uniform, "He was worth more alive than he is dead. I could have eaten this week if he was left alive."

Zehir made it to the top of the ladder and was horrified by what she saw. Some sort of bloody massacre had happened on this boat, and she wondered who could have caused it. There was no way Lazuki had done this in...Zehir looked to her right and saw her stomp a man right in the ribs. She heard the sickening crack and winced. The man spotted Zehir and pleaded her for help, but before she could even think about it, Lazuki had ripped out his intestines. Zehir tried very hard not barf.
