Welcome to Gaia! ::

Raruick was rudely awoken by a violent shove that toppled him out of his chair. As he hit the ground he growled darkly and jumped to his feet. "There better be a good reason for wh-" Before he could finish his sentence, realization dawned on him. At some point, he slipped into a deep sleep, and currently there was loud banging on the door. As soon as he stopped yelling and realized, the banging stopped, followed by rushed murmuring.

Hsingra had slowly began to drift off as the banging began on the door, she had heard the voices of the crew hollering to capture the girl. She had run to Captain Raurick's side assuming him to be awake and pretending for when they came in, but after a few convincing snores, she knew otherwise. "Wake up" She had whispered into his ears a few times before resorting to pushing. When she finally woke him up, he roared, but silenced and turned his attentiont o the door.

Raurick stormed over to the door and tore it open to see a few dozen men there, looking shocked to see him growling at them. They caught themselves and raised their swords to attack, but before a successful move could be made, Raurick snapped his fingers and lit them all up in flames. "Mutiny is punishable by death." He growled as he slammed the door shut after dispelling the flames from the corpses.

Arc held his head in his hands, slumped over to hide his face. He felt like he was on the verge of insanity.
Kill them.
Don't kill them.
You've killed before and managed to keep cool.
Shut up! I don't know why this bothers me.
Ki~ill them.
The last remark the voice in his head sounded singsong-ish and he snapped, standing up suddenly and pointing his claw gauntlets at Loda and Desert one at each throat. "I have nothing now but a useless crew. You have two good members Syori." He moved both hands back, preparing to stab their throats when he whirled around and cut a deep gash into the thick wooden flag pole. "The lion caught a bird but let it go, hoping that it will come back and sing instead of being silent with fear." He muttered before standing upright and pointed to The Blue Pearl with a claw. "Go, heal yourselves and pray that we never cross paths ever again."

(( Telepathy? I'd prefer some good old fashion normality with exception to hard earned accuracy with guns or exceptional ability with swords play from tons of past training. ))

Desert looked at Arc and tried to stand up. He pulled on his shirt and looked him in the eyes. "You are one of the people in this world that I can't stand." Then he pulled away . "At the same time though, I have a feeling you are going to be a big help sometime. See yea, lion of the sea. I pray that the next time we meet I am at full health so I can beat the crap out of you." He smiled and picked up Syori and got her to her feet. "Let's go, you too Loda."

Loda stood up and walked towards the short distance between his ship and the Black Lion, his shoulder bumped against Arc's before whispering. "You know you're never going to recover from this..." He muttered as he took the bullets out from his gun slowly, then suddenly he put his gun up to Arc's eye and fired, there was no bullet but a small explosion flared at the end of the pistol. With a scowl he jumped over the distance of space between his ship and turned The Blue Pearl away and began sailing off, ignoring the bullets that had found purchase in his body; one stuck in his shoulder, another on his thigh. The worst though was in his chest stuck between two ribs and encased half an inch below from his heart. "Syori, take care of Desert. I'll continue steering we need to get away."

Arc had stood up with his back turned away from the leaving party when Loda stopped beside him as he was heading back to his own ship, within seconds there was a gun to his face and an explosion right in front of his eye, a ringing in his ears from the boom of the gun. He screamed and fell down to his knees again, the crew were gathered unsure of whether to kill him or not since he was in a weakened state, others wanted him for protection as long as nobody said a word about his new problems they will still fear him.

cool

"Here you go." Asimo said throwing 6 bags of hold in front of Loda, Desert, and Syori. "I figured since you all made a good distraction, you guys earned a share." he said to them. He then took his daggers back from Desert " These are very hard to replace so dont ever take them."
