People were gathering around the liquid sources. They were blocking an easy track to get to them. Why did he follow his brothers again? Oh right, they seemed amusing at the time. Now they didn't. Now he blamed them for his skin burning. No, he didn't blame them, he blamed the Boto. That conniving little jerk; why had it come to him in the first place? It hadn't given him anything useful.
Although it seemed easier to pick up everyone's conversations now, despite all the noise. Weird. Nevertheless, Zuri slowly turned his head to listen to everyone and decide who would be best to talk to... Oh, there were two teenagers over there; one talking about eating a car...
Eh? He didn't know a Pae'il stomach was acidic enough to do that.
Zuri raked his arm with his oddly long nails before making his way over to a blue boy with very odd ears and a prettier green and blue girl. When he arrived near them, he frowned before poking the female angel lightly in the arm. "Sorry," his voice sounded rough and scratchy, almost as if he had a sore throat... but he didn't look sick. "Could... could you please get me some water? I can't," Zuri started itching his arm furiously, "get over there with all the people gathered, and you're closer." He felt bad for asking someone and interrupting their conversation, but he had to get something down his throat, or something on his body, or something to soothe the itch and burn.

Tiffany turned with her own refreshments in hand and walked away from the table, facing the stage. She saw an elder shortly after hearing the voice trying to hype the crowd. She nods once, more to herself then anything, an elder would recieve the recognition she believed they deserved, of course a faery elder would recieve the highest recognition but still.
"Just play something with a fun beat!" Bel yelled as she pulled her brother into the crowd with a laugh and a grin.
Dar did his best to keep his balace on the sand as he was pulled "Are you trying to get me bowled over??" he asked her shaking his head at the same time.

"Hi!" repeats Kelebek, attempting to dust herself off. "A bayse geh-tar? What's it do? What're the strings for?" She peers closely at it.

Jazz smiled at the teen. "Alright, something with a fun beat." She looked to her band as she thought about what that might be.
Zoe cocked her eyebrow. "Well, it plays music. Wait and watch...and listen." The adult angel laughed a little at that statement.
"Something Beach Boys!" Luau LuLu suggested.
"Whatever you want, Mom." Jet agreed.
"Okay, Surfin Safari!"
Let's go surfin' now
Everybody's learning how
Come on and safari with me
(Come on and safari with...)
Early in the morning we'll be startin out
Some honeys will be comin' along
We're loadin' up my woody
with the boards inside
and heading out singing our song

We're going on safari to the islands this year
So if you're coming get ready to go
Come on (surf route) baby wait and see (surfin' safari)
Yes I'm gonna (surf route) take you surfin' (surfin' safari) with me

After the song was over Zoe looked to the Naiad. "Like it?"

Joi smiled and took a sip of the punch she'd gotten for herself and glanced towards the crowd. She'd noticed Estralita had showed up with some others. "Are they your brother and sister?" she inquired, noticing the similarities between the 2 angels.
She's caught sight of the blue fae out of the corner of her eye and nearly dropped her drink. She looked so familar. Almost like her dad's sister. But it couldn't be ... her aunt was older. Was it a cousin? "Who's the fae you arrived with? I think I know her from somewhere..."
---
A slight bit anxiety hit Xanthea when she seen the poor boy beside her seemed to not be doing so well. Quickly she turned to grab a cup and looked around for a possible source of water. Seeing nothing, she figured the punch had to have water of some form in it, so she scooped up a glassful to hand to the parced teen. "I'm so sorry here!"
"Oh my, are you ok? Do you need any help? I don't think there's any drinking water nearby...." she cut off abruptly when she got an idea. "be right back."
She scuttled off towards one of the many faerie attendants and asked about if there was a source for water, for like the youngins or something, and was quickly directed to a coiled up hose off to the side of the festivities. It was hard to see what it was exactly connected to, but the island itself was always full of surprises so she didn't question it. Not at first anyway.
She headed back to the teen, "The fairies told me that they have a hose for water over there," she pointed towards its generall location, "in case of fires or messes and stuff."
---
The little pink Faun was just soaking every up. So many new sensations, sights, sounds, feelings. It was senses overload for her. When the music started, she immediately ran up towards the singing group and hopped excitedly. She'd never heard such sounds before; it was nothing like the music in the Tree.
"Play again!" she squealed when the song was over.

"Uh no, not siblings of mine, they are siblings to each other though, thats Beldaran and Darius... They seem to think I'm their mother... dont ask me" she added suddenly, knowing how odd that sounded "And the fae is Tiffany.. You'll have to forgive me I'm a lil disorientated right now, I dont remember a lot of this stuff being around yesterday, these naiads, fauns, even the isle the way it is... I dont get it I just dont" Estra told Joi
The two siblings cheered dancing with the music hollaring for more once the song was done

Zuri was so grateful for the punch that he beamed at her from ear to ear before taking the glass and practically dumping it down his throat as if he was a sink. Having some water in his system felt so good, even if it was in the form of punch. Why did it tingle as it went down his throat? No matter, he felt like he could use his voice again, for at least a little bit of time.
The beautiful angel girl then rushed off to go find something, apparently having a good idea. That left Zuri with the overly acidic stomach dude who had really ugly ears. Knitting his brows, the naiad cautiously edged away from the strange angel and waited for the prettier angel to return.
She was coming back! Oh good. ...With news of WATER! And fresh water, at that?! Zuri all but squealed in his excitement as he swiped a cup off the table and ran to the hose, refilling it many times and dumping it on his head at first, before dropping the cup altogether and practically bathing in the hose water. The poor guy must've been dried out pretty bad.
Zuri swiped the cup off the ground and poured himself a glass of water before returning to the blue and green angel with a bright grin from ear to ear. "Thank you so much. I was drying out really bad there... really bad." His voice sounded a lot better now, and he was no longer trying to itch himself with his long nails. However, he was now drenched from head to toe, and was tracking water in the sands. After pausing, he offered, "I'm Zuri Seabrook."
------
"Magnus!" Texas stopped in front of the punch, letting go of his fae brother's hand. "Today, we feast and drink like kings! While I'm usually not for your hedonism--"
"You're far too simple sometimes."
Texas cleared his throat. "Yes. But today, we are hedonists! Let's drink and be merry, Magnus." He poured Magnus out a glass and handed it to him before pouring himself one. "This mood has gone too far, and it's time to get your out of your funk." The demonic clinked his glass to Magnus', though Magnus didn't bother moving his own glass. "Cheers." Down the hatchet went Texas' glass, and all too quickly was he off to get another.
But he hardly felt like drinking today. Magnus looked down at his glass and knit his brows, trying to figure out what to do. Texas obviously wanted to cheer him up, and Texas always knew him best. Plus, Magnus always used this stuff to cheer other people up. There was no reason why it wouldn't work on him, too.
...Bah, he was thinking too much. "Cheers," he offered, belatedly, before downing his own glass and offering back to Texas for a refill.
Texas smirked. "Now we're talking!" Perhaps he could get his instinctual hedonist back after all.

Zoe looked to Kelebek and then back to the guitar. "Well, um... it plugs into this." She pointed to the amp sitting next to her. "From there I don't know." She smiled halfly as she wasn't so sure.
Jazz watched the teens dance and smiled. "Alright how about another one? A great song to get this crowd pumped!" She then turned to her band. "Hot, Hot, Hot."
Jet nodded. "That would do it!" He agreed with him mother.
Luau LuLu nodded and began to play once Jazz was ready for them.

The Pae'il just can't get enough of a good party.
The Faes' Luau attracted Pae'il like bees to pollen, or like flies to a lamp, or like sharks to blood--whatever particular analogy used depended on the Pae talked to, of course. The band that played between the hula girl's performances left the Pae'il dancing their socks off, and the hula girl's performances left the audience in awe. The faes were already constantly refilling the punch; it looked like some of the Pae'il were enjoying it a little too much. Still, this was a celebration to remember--and it was about to be a feast.
The roasted pig was finished! One of the fae flew over with an apple and stuck it in the roasted pig's mouth, giggling. It twenty of the small little fae to pick up the pig and escort it over to the table and silver platter that was already set out. One fae rang a large bell to get everyone's attention, and the throng quickly formed around the food.
...Unfortunately, that meant everyone missed what was really going on.
"It looks like we've found a great feast today, lads!"
"Aye, cap'n! This'll make our jobs easier, everyone's distracted."
A grey-blue Pae'il wearing a tricorner hat turned to the angelic Pae'il next to him and quirked a brow. "Of course it will, boy! Now stop flappin' your gums." He stepped onto the sands, leaving his large wooden frigate behind him. ...And a looming frigate it was. The sails were so large and the sun was angled in such a way that it left a large shadow in the sands of Sein Beach below.
Not saying another word, the new arrivals did exactly as they planned long before they arrived.
The lovely hula dancer was heading towards the roasted pig, wanting to get a taste of what smelled so good herself. Unfortunately, she wouldn't get to do that today. Hands grabbed her hands and tied them together. "HELP!!" she managed to scream, before the arrivals dragged her away.
But it was too little too late. One of the faes dropped what she was doing and tried to fly off after her, but they had moved too fast, and the beloved woman was gone. She whirled around to see the large frigate behind them--how had they missed that?!--with more Pae'il stepping off and joining the celebration with kegs of alcohol and large chests--though the ones with the large chests were running off in various directions. They were dressed simply in torn blouses and slacks, and many carried weapons with them. She managed to catch sight of a flintlock gun, and many had cutlasses on their backs. Was that a wand with a jolly roger on it?!
No way, it couldn't be...
"PIRATES?!?!"

Alicia was heading with all the other paes to the large pig roast. She wasn't sure she wanted to eat anything with a face, but when in Rome as they said. Just then the hula girl was kidnapped and a ruckus ensued. "Oh my!" Pirates? "What should we do?" She asked no one in particular.
Mei Lien had been dancing with a few other pae when the commotion happened. She stopped and looked around seeing the pirates with weapons and the hula girl kidnapped. Her hand flew to her mouth and she shook. She was scared.

In her mind, Kelebek was racing toward the beach. She was diving back into the cool ocean, her home, her element. Her awkward legs fused back into her sleek tail and she was quickly gaining on the large wooden vessel. In her mind, she climbed up the ladder onto the deck where the lovely woman in the grass skirt was being held, and she beat the pirates into submission with her bare hands. No! With one of the guards' spears that they'd lent her as she went dashing toward the shore.
In reality, she hadn't moved at all. Frozen to the sand with fear and confusion. Kelebek forces herself to snap out of it and actually head toward the water. She dashes for the shoreline, but stumbles and falls on her face before she reaches it. Twice. When she finally makes it to the water, she sighs with relief as her tail reforms and she swims after the ship.
This is her chance. Her chance to be a hero and finally have friends.

Jazz and her band had taken the break to try the food when they saw what had happened. Being an elder Jazz felt she should do something. But what? She was only the elder of entertainment after all.
"Okay, folks I think we need a search party or something." She told the crowd of anyone who might listen. "Pirates?!"
Jet hadn't seen what had happened but he heard it all. What an odd thing. Pirates? Taking a Hula girl? Good thing it wasn't Bob up there.
The angel nodded to his mother. He would help if he could.
Luau LuLu watched in horror. She felt a kinship to the girl that was being drug away. At that moment she wasn't sure what to do. Nothing like that had happened before. That she knew of.
Zoe nodded to her grandma. Mist began to surround her as she was scared. This wasn't something she was used to either. They normally just played on the beach all day and had fun.

What to do, what to do?! The faes rushed around in a panic, trying to figure out what they could possibly do about the pirate invasion and the fact that the pirates had just captured the most lovely Hula dancer of them all.
Where had they even gone with her?!
She had to be somewhere on the Isle, in some place. Maybe they should send out a search party. Someone was bound to find her eventually. The faes came to an agreement before one flew out to the panicking group of Pae'il, megaphone floating in front of her so it was easier for them to hear.
"Everyone, everyone!" When she got everyone's attention, she smiled and nodded her head in thanks for continuing. "Nobody panic! Please, please, go back to celebrating, we'll find her! No silly pirates are going to ruin our day." She warily glanced in the direction that a few of the pirates were marching off in and bit her lip softly. At least, she hoped that no pirates were going to ruin their day.
After a small pause, she continued, "But we could use a little help! If anyone wants to help us find her, you could help most by splitting off in some direction--any direction!--and trying to see if you can search out where she went!"
In the meantime, some of the pirates stayed behind and made themselves at home at this little celebration. A chance to celebrate with much alcohol and food wasn't something the pirates had gotten to do often, after all, and they almost seemed as eager to celebrate as the Pae'il had been despite their plans. Perhaps they were celebrating their victory already...
(( If your Pae'il/Caretaker wants to help the Faes out in their search, follow this link.
Otherwise, keep partying! ))

Jazz looked the fairies. "I will do my best to try." Jazz was an elder and she wanted to help out. It wasn't right the the hula girl was just taken. They shouldn't be able to get away with that.
The elder looked to her band and told them, "Keep play and keep the pirates busy. I know you can do it without me." She smiled and nodded most to her son Jet. He would be better help this way and he needed to know that.
Jet nodded back to his mom. "Alright. Let's play something they might like." He chuckled as he thought of a song.
Luau LuLu agreed as well. This would help and that's what she wanted to do anyway. So the mixed angel got back to drum set and got ready. "Good luck!"
Zoe also went back to his guitar. She too would play and keep them busy. This was the best thing she could think to do.
Mother, mother ocean
I've heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters
Since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all
You see it all
I've watched the men who rode you
Switched from sails to steam
And in your belly you hold the treasures
Few have ever seen
Most of them dreams
Most of them dreams
Yes I am a pirate
Two hundred years too late
The cannons don't thunder
There's nothing to plunder
I'm an over forty victim of fate
Arriving too late
Arriving too late
I've done a bit of smuggling
And I've run my share of grass
I've made enough money to buy Miami
But I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last
Never meant to last
Well I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I past and I've rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I've got to stop wishin' got to go fishin'
I'm down to rock bottom again
With just a few friends
Just a few friends
I go for younger women(Trouuubllee)
Lived with several awhile
But I've ran them away
Hell, they come back some day
And still can manage to smile
Just takes a while
It just takes a while
Mother mother ocean
After all these years I've found
This occupational hazard be
My occupations just not around
Feels like I've drown
Gonna get drunk up town
Feels like I've drown
When I get drunk up town
