[center][h1]East Blue[/h1] [h2]Lt. Of The Marines[/h2] [h3]Raven Booth[/h3][/center] Raven walked through the town, the people seemed at ease. They weren’t making much fuss and bowed their heads as he walked past.[color=f7941d] “Tch… Am I really not going to find anything here?”[/color] He thought to himself, making his way to a little cafe at the center of the village. It was a nice little shop, Raven made his way inside and sat down at one of the tables. “OH! A marine! What a sight!” An elderly man came out from the back room, brandishing a broom and an apron. [color=f7941d]“I’m Marine Lt. Raven Booth.”[/color] Raven spoke confidently, adjusting his sunglasses. “A Lieutenant in our part of the island! What did we do to deserve such honors sir!” The old man didn’t seem serious when he spoke, his facial expression barely even changed. [color=f7941d]“Tch...”[/color] Raven’s eye twitched… why was he being looked down on… he should be seen as a cool hero! People should look at him and call his name “Raven-sama! Thank you for saving us~” “Raven-Sama~ So cool!” He was lost in his own thoughts as he gripped his jacket and pulled with his teeth. “So, were you looking for some food? I’ve got a shop to run you know!” Raven sighed and placed his elbow on the table, resting his chin in his palm.[color=f7941d] “Yeah yeah… I’d like some iced tea.”[/color] “Oh.. big spender.” Raven’s eye twitched again at the old man’s comments. [color=f7941d]“Look here old man! I’m not here by choice alright! There’ was a huge storm out at sea and my men are basically as useful as a hand full of rocks! So I don’t need your sass too!” [/color] The old man stared Raven down. “That’s more like a marine.” The lt. Stopped for a moment, [color=f7941d]“What the hell are you talking about?”[/color] The old man sighed and placed a glass full of ice down on the table. “The marine Lt. In charge of the base just a few towns over. He’s just like you. Full of vim and vigor… and venom.” He poured some black tea into the glass. “He keeps the bandits away… but the people have to pay tribute to you damn marines every month and we’re going broke.” Raven grabbed the glass, downing the tea and slamming a handful of beli on the table. [color=f7941d]“Thanks for the tea.”[/color] He adjusted his sunglasses as he stormed out of the building. “Pff… least he tips well.”
