Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yugi was shocked to see the gun pulled out on Kaiba. Before he could say anything, Kaiba agreed to it and went up to the crows next. He sighed in relief. Seeing Kaiba yell to the sky made him sweatdrop. No matter what, they couldn't convince Kaiba this was really going on.

Gabriella smiled deviously when the gun was pulled out. She woundered what this man would do under pressure. Seems he valued his life- he listened. As he walked up to the crow's nest- Gabriella said, "Your friend is a loon, eh? Or maybe he's had to much of the drink?" She really thought he was crazy, he speaks as if he was from the future. "Maybe he's confusing 'pirates' with 'vikings', numb nut," she added.

[[it's all good Artea. Heh and about being mean- don't worry, my person can be a rotten b***h sometimes.... actually a lot sweatdrop .... I don't mean it either!]]

Kanamie burst out in laughter at Kiba's actions, and snickered at Gabriella's comment "actually yes he is a very confused man, and instead of num nuts try no nuts...it fits him better...." Kanamie smirked knowing it would mostlikely get his attention "he's a blubbering coward..... a fool who thinks he's too good fr everyone.... a pathetic excuse for a man all around if you ask me...." she snorted and continued sitting on the rim of the ship as she held on to a tightly fastened rope.

((Okay everyone prepare for the ultimate Kaiba treatment biggrin ))

Kaiba overheard the strangers talking about him behind his back. In response, he jumped down from the crow's nest and landed in between the "captain" and the other insolent girl. He gave the second girl his most intimidating glare, "You dare call me a coward?! When it is you and your comrades who kidnapped myself, Yugi, and Ishizu from our homes and stuck us in this...theme park ride rip-off of a holographic simulation, and expect us to play pirate with you! It is you who are the cowards, trying to intimidate us into submission! I dare whoever you work for to come and face me directly! They wouldn't last a minute against me in a straight confrontation. They are as much the coward as you are!" Then he turned to the captain and grabbed her wrists to prevent her from drawing her pistol, and gave her the same glare, "As for you, captain, don't mistake my previous action as obeidience. I only went up there because it suited my interests. Do you honestly think you're the first person to point a gun at me?! Do you honestly think you can intimidate me with that primitive pea shooter of yours? I laugh at your pathetic attempt at scare tactics. Pirate. Humph...You don't know the meaning of the word! With only myself and my brother, I stole the fortune of the most powerful and intimidating man in the world and barely lifted a finger doing so! Since then I have kept it safe from those who would deprive me of what is rightfully mine. When you have reached my level, then you can try to bring me down...and fail! And don't try to play dumb either! I'm on to you and your 'crew.' Don't expect me to believe that you don't know how we got here. I don't know about Yugi or Ishizu, but my home has the most sophisticated security system known to man. No one can singlehandedly break into my home, kidnap me, and bring me here without some kind of help, which leaves only a few possiblities. One: You and your crew are all part of this simulation, which means I have absolutely nothing to fear from you whatsoever. Two: You or some members of your crew are in fact flesh and blood and are therefore working for the mastermind behind this abduction. In either case, whether through some kind of affiliation, or through programming, you know who's responsible for all of this! Is it Gozoburo?! Noah?! Or the Big Five!? Or all of them together? They do have access to the level of technology necessary to pull this off. Or maybe it's one of my other competitors too frightened by me to show their face like a man! Whoever's behind this, I demand answers and I want them NOW!" Kaiba moved in closer and stared directly into the eyes of the woman who calls herself "captain" with his most intimidating stare once again and squeezed her wrists with all of his strength to finalize his point, "I will not be intimidated or controlled! DO YOU HEAR ME!"

Kaiba felt the bullet whizz by his head, "So, it's just like back then, when the holograms actually felt real. I must be on my guard." He looked at Yugi, "Is what that other girl said true?"

Kaiba felt the blade of the sword on his neck and the small amount of blood that he lost, "So...just like the world that Gozoboro and the others created, the holograms feel real and you can actually get injured," he thought, Well regardless, I know how my enemies work. I'll get them to talk no matter what!" Then he released the "captain" and turned very slowly to the woman who held him at sword point...and laughed, "This is ridiculous! First Yugi wants me to believe in such ridiculous notions as magic and destiny and reincarnation, and now you add time travel to the list and actually expect me to believe that over my perfectly resonable explanation of what is going on here? If you have an alternative line of reasoning, I suggest you base it in reality, not science fiction. But if you are that insistant in getting me to play along, I have a proposition for you. Regardless of what we both believe is going on, we have one thing in common...we agree that some outside party is manipulating things and I have strong reason to believe that you 'pirates' know who. Therefore I challenge you to a game of your choice. Duel Monsters, chess, chinese checkers, go fish, whatever you want. If you win, I'll play this ridiculous game and join your crew without question. I'll even reduce myself to a lowly cabin boy. If I win, we end this charade right here and now and you tell me everything you know about what is truly going on and release us. Do you accept?"

((Kaiba's never one to back down because of a little opposition wink ))

Kanamie chuckled " it been a while since i dueled...... so a monster duel it is......" she moved her blade and sheathed it. she popped her nuckles and her neck "but we do it the old fassion way no technology what so ever....." she cleaned up an area on the deck to play and put a cover down and tok out a deck of her own and sat elegantly. she took out her deck and began shuffling it expertly.

Gabriella turned around, now a bit aggitated. "What ever a 'hologram' is, stop calling me it. And if I find out it's something bad, you'll get a bullet right in the knee cap," she said with a growl. She notice they were playing a game. Uninterested, she wayed the anchor then sat on the railing of the boat.

Yugi nodded at Kaiba, "It is, everyone was passed out. We came aboard then asked to go back to search for everyone." He then shook his head and continued, "I never believed in time travel, but it seems we are back in time." Yugi didn't like all of this violence, but it's hard to not witness violent around pirates. "Duel monsters?" he mummbled. This was going to be interesting.

[[what happened to Y.Marik and the girl playing Mia? That's all we need is Mia getting angry as well xd ]]
