She simply smiled and nodded, walking out and pacing to the general store. Scarlett continued, her dog carrying her stuff behind her as they walked with the partnership of Deon. Things seemed ok but marines started to flock. People were talking everywhere Dammit...this isn't good...looks like we may have a fight on our hands She told Deon quietly. It was just her luck that she had her Katana with her... "Haku take the stuff and get out of sight, We're being messed with here" She told the Dog sternly. Haku barked and ran as quickly as he could. She looked around quickly but subtly. They were onto them, it wasn't safe to stay here any longer, rumors had obviously got to the marines faster than she thought, and of course pirates were to blame.

"Seems that way doesn't it."He said in a low tone back to her. He was aware of the marines that seemed to be closing in on them. At any moment he was ready to pull out any one or both his guns if necessary. He had gotten bored from not fighting in awhile anyways. "Well we have two options. One I can use one of my flash pods to blind them long enough for us to get away. Or two, we end them here and now." He spoke in a low tone again as he continued walking casually with her.

" I reckon we have three options...." She smirked and lifted the sword from her back from its slot, holding the hilt firm. She swung it out and readied herself. The marines seemed to react almost instantly. She was approached by many recruits, and in one slash she propelled them back. "the last option is all or nothing..."
Scarlett managed to get them out of the way and ran for cover, after shouting to Deon. " take care of these guys, ill be back in a minute!". She ran off at a quic pace and made herself scarce. It was time to bring those rumors to life so they could escape. She cornered a free space and started to run and as she did so, with a "poof" she was turned into a dragon, she was galloping until her wings flew her up into the air at a soaring fast rate. She took flight easily and flew into the sky. Scarlett had to make sure she could get there attention but she had to pick up her belongings first. She traveled over to haku and summoned him to get aboard with their stuff before heading over to the scene

Deon pulled the one gun that was meant for his left hand, from under his cloak. These marines were weak so one gun was all that he felt was necessary to use against them. He laughed at the marines, as Scarlet had blown them back with one swing. Take care of them she said. And so I shall. He raised his gun towards all the marines left standing and they charged him almost on instinct afterward. He fired the significant amount of shots necessary and struck them all in the chest. The marines stopped shortly after because they were confused. They expected the bullets to pierce their bodies but they didn't. They became confident and felt they had nothing to fear. That was until Deon pressed the side of his gun, and jumped to the roof of a nearby building. The bullets that landed on the marines exploded at the exact same time. "Patient Impact, you got to love it." he chuckled. "That was a little fun." He waited until he saw Scarlett again. He was hoping she would return before more marines came. He knew his attack made more than the necessary amount of noise to draw the other marines attention.

Take to the sea and sky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From out of the pale blue sky a dragon covered over the sun, the ground darkening as it flew over. people stopped to look above. Certainly got the attention. The dragon descended landing in the midst of the fight and roaring ferociously. The village folk backed away screaming and shouting. It swung round with its tail and sent approaching marines flying. With one final screech the dragon turned to Deon. For a moment the dragons eyes connected to him.
The damage on the town wasn't too bad but it was worrying. Scarlett felt somewhat guilty that she had scared the locals out of their wits, she hoped there weren't that many casualties but right now there wasn't much of a choice. Haku jumped off the dragon and barked to Deon, gesturing him to run for it. They had to get out of there, the last thing Scarlett wanted was to be captured but hopefully the advantage seemed to lay in her hands. She was impressed at Deon's attacks, the were stunning and in-explainable!
The dragon ran forward slightly, making everyone move aside so that Deon could make his escape. The dragon flew up effortless in its ascend into the sky. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wichita R. Pitt
Fast approaching the island of Orlantayga, a moderately large fleet of marine ships, with a very large woman stomping her foot on the deck and pointing towards the island. She seemed to be shouting at the crew, presumably to move faster. The ships apparently were approaching from the southwest, and intent on trying to block any sea vessels from escaping. The woman on deck, also the commander of the fleet, was none other than probably the most corrupt marine in the entire of West Blue, Wichita Pitt. More exaggerated motions and gesturing would lead the ships to open cannon fire on the island. She seemed to be yelling in a high pitched, shrill yell, and pointing exactly at the dragon. Aboard the ships, Wichita's words were more than easily understandable, as it sounded more along the lines equivalent of blasting every syllable of her speech into their faces with breath that most would have considered rancid. "C'MON!!!! You see that, do you see that, you worthless bags of meat!? THAT is MY battle flying away from me, and that is YOUR chance of getting out of this without bandages on your arses! The only thing stopping me from doing that now to you is that there are PEOPLE on that island, whose collective worth MIGHT come to a sum of about HALF of what that dragon would have netted ME. You'd BEST get these tubs there faster, FAASSTERRR. I want them all captured and collared, YOU HEAR ME!??!?!" Practically screaming at them, Wichita stood near the front of the boat, just waiting for the boat to get close enough that she could jump onto the island. The rest of the fleet had orders to intercept and stop any outgoing vessels with people on it. If it however, was a business vessel, such as carrying goods for trade, it was to be searched, but let pass. Wichita knew the importance of vendors, after all. Everyone else though...totally open game.

So she was the rumored dragon.If he hadn't noticed Haku, Deon wouldn't have figured out that it was Scarlett. But he was still surprised to see such a fabled creature in person. He snapped back into attention as Haku barked at him. He followed Haku with ease keeping up with the dog, while Scarlet was above soaring through the sky. He looked back, while running and noticed the marine ship that was coming towards the island. He smiled and turned away from the ship. Their goal was to escape so for now he would let Haku lead the way.

Wichita R. Pitt
At last and for what seemed like forever did the boat draw close enough for her to leap from its deck and on to the island itself. However, things were already fleeing. Never a good sign. Turning back to the crew then preparing to dock, she yelled orders at them. "OY! Usual drill! Anyone who's a legit merchant, leave them alone. Everyone else is fair game! I expect to see those holds full when I get back! I'm going after that thing!" Wichita yelled, pointing at the dragon with a wild grin. With that, she took off in a sprint down a large street that seemed open enough towards the dragon. She seemed to quickly pass Deon, with her much longer stride and the matched or even beat pace, she aimed to get a running start and use the crest of the hill as a "take-off point". Meanwhile, the rest of her marines understood their orders and once they had finished docking, rushed into town with the sole intent to capture as many people as they could.

Take to the sea and sky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Damn....here come the cavalry, just what we need, the higher-up's trying to get their filthy no good hands on a pirate prize. There not going to care about civilians...should i go back to save them? Scarlett thought. She couldn't talk in her dragon state but her thoughts were running through her mind. She hesitated in flight but noticed a woman below with rather alarming features. The dragon did a 360 turn about in the sky and faced the woman. I thought so....You're a marine arent you She said to herself swooping over to try and knock the woman. She intentionally missed as if giving a warning not to come any closer or even follow for that matter. Her Dragon form propelled like a rocket to catch up with Her new Captain, Deon. That Marine certainly looked business...this wasn't going to be easy and people were going to be hurt out of this; as much as she wanted to escape, the lives of civilians had to be saved, she and Deon were the threat and she wasn't going to let it be their fault because of them. Scarlett was a pirate but she wasn't going to sacrifice innocent people, of course marines didn't visualize pirates that way in the slightest.
Haku lead the way to the dock, marines were still on their tail and they need a ship. Scarlett had told Haku the plan of action, he was indeed a smart pooch and this wasnt wasted in the slightest. He dashed to the pier and looked around trying to find a ship. Haku then looked to Deon and barked as if to say "Pick one" and the dog nuzzled his leg in a gestural manner .

Wichita R. Pitt
Too right she was, and behind Wichita were ships of marines pouring in and entering houses. Sure, they could certainly be stopped, but with an entire fleet's worth to try and stop and try to avoid or battle their commander? It wasn't a particularly appealing or easy task. The dragon abruptly reversed its direction and zoomed over head. Heh, that was close....like a warning not to go further. I'll be hung before I'll listen to something that simple though...and I'm kinda tired of just watching....let's do this. The mental "conversation" over and done with, Wichita ceased running and proceeded to begin growing...an already eye-boggling feat as it was with her super-human size. Within a moment's notice though, Wichita now was much larger, knocking houses down simply by brushing them when she turned around and jumped. Her wings caught air, and she began flapping around, getting the hang of flying for a bit before swooping towards the dragon herself. "Heh heh! Fight me, dragon! Or are you going to try and run from me? It's not going to hurt unless you make it hurt!"

Take to the sea and sky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hm..now i get it shes some kind of super human...could she be a Wotan?...surely not, maybe that was a devil fruit power.. She thought quickly, but there wasn't much time to ponder; the dragon swooped fast and let the woman catch onto her. With a slight adjustment she barreled higher going straight up and over the woman, managing to quickly tail behind and down towards the city. She landed for a moment and deliberately scared off the civilians as if to say "run away from here". Locals, being stupid as they were did so and even though it wasn't exactly the nicest and calmest way of doing things at least they would be safe for some time. She looked up in her dragon form, at the wonderous looking woman who had grown a considerable size. This is going to be rough, I hope Deon and Haku are safe...but its better they keep out of the way.
The Dragon grunted, stomping its foot. So this is what you want huh... With a snarl she roared and then let out a fury of flames towards the sky. Our fight begins here.... It was lucky, most of the area was a little spaced out and since some buildings were crushed it was more easier to move and she was glad it became deserted since the civilians cleared away from the scene. She spotted a few marines and fire bolted them away with a few quick breaths. Patience now becoming her motive, she haulted and groaned quietly in wait of the Wotan Woman.

Wichita R. Pitt
A sort of evil laugh, or perhaps a snigger would be the best word to describe the sound emitted from between Wichita's teeth. "Eheh...heheh...ehehheh. Perfect. I'd ask your name, but then again...I don't think it'll matter!" With that, Wichita kicked into a building and hefted it up to her arm, where she promptly chucked it at the dragon woman. Not stopping there, Wichita took off after the thrown projectile, and instinctively reached for a weapon that ultimately ended up not being there. Curses. A brief thought, as well as adding a note to ask for a weapon that would grow with her, ran through her mind. So the dragon spat fire, fairly common and predictable, but practical as well. That in mind, Wichita ran the risk anyway. It wasn't as if she had any real looks to keep nice or anything. Upon closing the distance, she leaped up off of one foot and performed a roundhouse kick aimed towards the dragon herself, though it wasn't specifically aimed, so saying the torso as the target would be the most likely.

Take to the sea and sky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With one fire breath the dragon broke the flying object but the rumble was rough and her scales could only protect her so much from the impact of it. She managed to dodge the first roundhouse but was fooled by the upcoming other kick which firmly kicked her in her torso. She was lucky the dragon form was tough but it didn't mean it wasn't painful for her. With a slight struggle before taking off she flew airborne, maybe this approach wasn't going to last, perhaps her sword would be useful, but it was with Haku! She should of anticipated this much sooner but she never thought a giant woman would be her opponent.
The dragon snarled and again shot a ferocious fire ball towards her, she expected her to dodge this and flew higher. Soon she was going to get tired, and she didnt have long. Once tired she couldn't turn back to her human form so easily, it was effort after all. If she was ever injured she would usually use whatever she had left to turn human again, but she doubt she would have time at the end of this. If she could try to get her human form sooner she may have a chance to get away, she thought.

Deon K. Zaraki
Deon didn't become frantic as he saw the huge marine woman run passed him and Haku. On the other hand he was more worried about Scarlett. He was about to look back to see how she was doing when Haku nudged his leg directing him to pick one of the up coming ships. He pointed towards the ship he wanted. "Haku, that's the one but I'm going to try and help Scarlett out from here." He stopped and looked back to see her struggling with the giant. "Since she is hitting the marine high I will hit her low." He raised his right hand as he said, "Sango." He unleashed a massive charge of electricity from his hand. He didn't have time to worry about the buildings that seemed to become chard before crumbling apart as the attack hit them and swiftly continued forward towards Witchita's waist. He hoped this would be enough to bring her to her knees and knock her out. That way Scarlett would be able to get away.

Wichita R. Pitt
Unexpected to the dragon woman, Wichita waited to see her next actual movement, and was pleased at it. Anything that could be different and unexpected was a pleasant surprise, and this was...while not completely unexpected, airborne combat was different for her. Again jumping off of the ground to move to close combat with this dragon, she leaped straight for the dragon, the fireball impacting against an upraised left forearm that swung off to the side...as if she had been trying to bat it away. The smell of burning skin filled the air around her, but it didn't seem to deter her, wings flapping and driving her closer. It also served in avoiding a nasty electrical shock that could have come from below. Now, Wichita could easily have ended this fight, by focusing her efforts on simply cracking the dragon over the head until it would turn back into a human. She didn't carry a dragon sized collar..that would have been awkward to move with. So instead, she would have to beat on her opponent, and then attempt to put it on. Not likely though, as that electrical shock she'd narrowly avoided came from an ally of hers. Two for the price of one? Not happening, sadly. Apparently she'd have to "purchase" both. The latter seemed interesting to fight. Both Devil Fruit users, huh? I guess my presence makes it a three-way. Too bad that they don't stand a chance against my own devil fruit.
