[center] Dromena Wanting to keep track of her weapons, Dromena kept files of parchment detailing her creations and what they were capable of. At the moment she was describing the composition of her newest sword and felt quite proud of it. She couldn’t wait to test it out. When she heard a knock on her door and begin to open without her permission, she had to stop herself from testing out her new weapon, like she wanted to a few moments ago, on the intruder. Dromena quietly observed the captain as he stepped in her room and privately was glad she had not reacted on instinct and threw her blade at him. “I have a feeling this make take some time. Please take a seat, Captain, if you wish. ” she spoke neutrally, quickly clearly her desk. She waved her hand to the empty chair across from her, motioning for Fenrir to sit. “What is it you want to discuss?” she asked courteously. Nemesis Nemesis smiled. “Thanks sounds like an acceptable arrangement, thank you Videl.” she thanked earnestly, excited at the prospect of training with the strong vampire. The former princess had never done any physical workouts like she saw during Videl training and was unsure as to what they would actually be doing. All she knew was that whatever regime he came up with, it obviously worked for him, and hopefully it would work for her too. “What must I do to prepare? Will I be required to gather any items?” she asked curiously. Charlie Charlie frowned as he heard Protettore’s declaration, but he was not frowning at the young vampire, but at one of his old memories. “Um…honestly, this training probably came at an excellent time then. I mean, that the Captain is not here. When I first joined the crew I did not know how to swim either, and when he figured it out he pushed me into the ocean and told me to learn quickly otherwise I would drown and die or be left behind by the ship. Since it was still moving, still.” he explained, sighing as he remembered that horrible experience. “I really did learn how to swim, but I do not want you to go through that. I feel depressed just thinking about that…”he mumbled. Charlie did not know what to do about the situation, though. There was no way he was going to be like Jecht and throw the child into the water, but he did not want to disobey the captain’s orders. “Er, I am not much of a teacher. I learned by nearly drowning, I would not know where to start with teaching you…um…I will go find someone. Wait here. Please.” he requested nervously, silently hoping that the child did not run away and hide as soon as he left. He briskly strode towards the rooms again and silently wished that the person he was seeking was nearby. He reached the room and knocked on the door. “Mariemaia?” he called out. “Can you help me with something Jecht wants done?” He remembered the female pirate and how the captain sunk her ship during their first meeting. Charlie figured that she knew how to swim since she didn’t drown after she lost the duel with Jecht. Well, at least he hoped so. Cepheus “Well if it isn’t the captain’s pet bitch.” Cepheus snarled at the random vampire he encountered, not even bothering to learn his name. There were few vampires on the crew that he bothered to learn the names of, the rest were just nameless fools who he hoped to send to mother Cerberus one day. He was really annoyed to encounter one of them so soon after dealing with Jecht’s ridiculousness earlier. “You belong with the rest of the human livestock you- AHH!” the vampire had began to say, but Cepheus snatched his neck and choked him in order to stop him from speaking. “Shut your mouth.” he growled darkly. “If you know what is good for you.” Cepheus was tempted to throw him overboard and wondered if Jecht would even notice if one of his crew members had mysteriously disappeared. He figured that, yes Jecht would notice, and then the vampires would be given even more reason to hate him. So instead, he just tossed him against the wall and quickly retreated before he could be attacked from behind. Jecht Jecht was dreaming. Dreaming of something strange. There was a large sign, with large words in English. The dream Jecht squint his eyes and even with his vampire sight could barely make out what it said: THE END. The letters were written in a bright green color. He snorted, figuring that it was drawn by some sort of child. Such an unelegant scripture, he mused. The dream Jecht felt confused by it but he pressed a giant blue arrow that suddenly appeared next to him. The sign saying “THE END.” suddenly disappeared. His surroundings turned black and he instantly went on his guard. Then, he heard a sound unexpected. He heard laughter. Strange, mysterious laughter. The vampire cautiously glanced around and there, he saw it. A green monster. He had green skin and his face look like a skull with bright red eyes and wore a strange outfit. His scent was strange and he could not tell what he was. And floating around him were heads of what he thought was human, based on the smell since he actually could tell this time, with large X’s drawn with blood covering the face. The X's would disappear and then reappear. The heads had white eyes but he figured it was because they were obviously dead. The creature was also glowing for some reason but he could not tell why. The dream Jecht stared at the creature in confusion, wondering when the laughs would stop. [/center]
