Alka Anarchy
Alka would wait but a moment before submerging herself to go back into the cavern and wait for who knows what to happen next. Tired, Alka wanted to, but could not sleep. She had a sinking feeling that if she did go to sleep, she would be needed, and no one would be able to rouse her. Alka had a trained habit to always go to sleep underwater, and since all of her fellow nakama, or allies, were unable to swim, they could not reach her. "What a nuisance. It makes no sense for her to go out risking it alone. I don't care if he says he's not bothered too much by it or whatever he did say to pacify her. She's young, and I'd call her naive. Maybe some ambition. Now...this one on the other hand..." Alka began, her eyes shifting down towards the sleeping Luna. This one has a better pirate spirit about her. A real pity that she only wakes at night.

☼☀ Sunny Tarpe ☀☼☞ Pirate ☠ Captain ☜ ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ xxxSunny took a deep, calming breath. She'd have to focus if they wanted to make it to Yoroi without incident. It didn't help her focus at all that this was the first time she'd brought a (conscious) person with her. Usually, it was just her carrying Luna. As she started manipulating the board so they were flying over the water, disturbing the water below, Sunny found it wasn't so easy carrying two (conscious) people. Plus, Soren weighed more than Luna, which weighed them down and took more effort. Still, she forced the board to fly high and hoped for the best. It might take longer than I previously thought, but no problem. "Don't let go; I might not be able to catch you if you fall, and I won't be able to follow you in," Sunny didn't necessarily expect an answer. Some people were squeamish when quickly soaring through the air. The first time she'd tried the technique, she'd stopped ten minutes in and threw up her lunch. Well, she'd just have to hope Soren had a stronger stomach than her.

★☾ Luna Tarpe ☽★☞ Pirate ☠ Captain ☜ ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ xxxLuna was laying on her back in the sand of Bekkou. She looked peaceful; nice, sweet, some might even call her attractive. That is, until she started to wake up. Immediately, the corner of her mouth twitched down and her eyes squeezed shut. Drawing a deep intake of breath, her eyes opened to see... well... it was really dark. There wasn't much to see. Except, of course, the giagantic mermaid that definitely wasn't there before. No... it wasn't the mermaid that'd changed- she wasn't on her boat anymore... and she felt strange...
xxxStrange or no, Luna was on her feet in an instant, glaring at Alka. "Oi! What the hell are you doing here, fish breath?" She clenched her breath and attempted to make her Ivory Spear from moonlight, as it was her favorite of weapons. Her eyes widened as a light weight, transparent spear appeared in her grip. My powers are weak... that must mean... Luna looked left and right in an almost desperate manner. Glare intensifying tenfold, she looked back to Alka. When she spoke, her words were heavily accented and spoken in a wobbling, forced-calm tone. "Where is my sister?"

Alka Anarchy
Fish breath? People seemed to like cutting shorter and shorter fuses for her temper, though Alka tried to understand. A lot had happened. "Good to see you awake at last, captain. If that's any indication as to what talking with your sister did for me, then let's hope that's good enough. I'm tired, pissed off, and it's about bloody time you woke up. Your sister and my captain went to go drop off a marine she shanked in the attempted defense of myself, whom she thought was going to attack me. Anyway, we shanghai'd him and I brought you all here. They talked things out while talking at me, and now she went back with him to drop him off....Naive thing. I was told explicitly to "stay here", and "I'll be right back". Right back, nothing. Last I heard, I presume they were headed back to Yoroi Island, where we met him and were attacked. Before I grab you and we rush off to fix her mistake, I gotta ask....was she dropped on her head as a baby?....repeatedly? She wouldn't let me drown the marine, or even throw him when we were "in range" of an island. It's really inconvenient that you're sleeping when I'd prefer to have your opinion. That said, are you ready to leave now?" Alka didn't exactly converse with Luna, but more or less talked at her. Her hand extended forward, as if to indicate how she planned on taking Luna anywhere at this point in time. Sure, she might have included a small lie or two in the area, but it sounded to her like something that Sunny would say. Now, whether or not Luna believed that or not was another boat in the sea entirely.

★☾ Luna Tarpe ☽★☞ Pirate ☠ Captain ☜┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ xxxLuna analyzed the information and was, for a while, surprised the huge mermaid wasn't an enemy. "So you joined the crew... You guys must've had an interesting day." Shaking her head, she let the transparent spear disappear completely and looked up to Alka, her face stony and seemingly angry, but softer than it had been. "Considering we were babies at the same time, I can't say for sure if she was dropped on her head, but there's definitely something wrong with that girl." Luna sighed, shooting the mermaid's hand a suspicious look. Well, this girl is in the crew now. I should give her the benefit of a doubt, at the very least. She stepped forward, though hesitating a bit. Was she supposed to step on the mermaid's hand or wait to be picked up?

Alka Anarchy
Yes...interesting was a word to describe it. Miserable was also another good word for it. Alka was used to people shooting her angry glances, though it did them no good. Fair enough though, she figured when Luna replied that she figured something was wrong with her sister. She frowned when Luna hesitated, but tried and tried to give her the benefit of the doubt, that she was probably ignorant of how this worked. "All right, so this is how it works. Your ship got lost. I'll find it later. For now though, I move faster, and am just as reliable at storing people. Since everyone of my passengers before I got here was a devil fruit user, I had to keep you dry, or dry enough anyway. So you, Sunny, and the footstool marine rode in my mouth. Certainly effective, and you obviously didn't wake up, so it must not have been too disgusting. Anyway, so I'm going to take and put you in my mouth, under my tongue so that I don't swallow you, and then we're going to leave this cavern, to which I will open my mouth and let you out. I'm hungry, and tired, so I'm very likely to swallow you if I continued like I was fine. After I open my mouth and you get out, you climb on top of my head, and hold on. We'll go where you need to go, and probably make much better time than Sunny did getting to Yoroi.....that IS where you want to go, right?"

★☾ Luna Tarpe ☽★☞ Pirate ☠ Captain ☜┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ xxx"If Sunny's there, we're going," Luna said, without hesitation. Of course she wasn't going to hesitate on that; Sunny was her sister. There was no way she'd let some idiot marine captain take her away. "Let's get this over with quickly. I want my sister back by dawn." Looking at Alka with a flat face- it wasn't a scowl, but it wasn't quite a smile- she added, "Since Sunny's been dragging you around all day, I can only assume you're exhausted at this point. Don't worry about the rescue- leave it to me." From Luna, that would probably be the best reassurance anyone (save for Sunny) would get. Now all there was to do was really wait to be taken to Yoroi- though the two seconds she'd spend in Alka's mouth were going to be gross.

Alka Anarchy
"Good. Oh, and one second." Alka paused, retracting her hand and abruptly sinking her head into the surface of the water. A slurping noise could be heard before she rose up and apparently was using sea water as a mouthwash or gargle. It was a bit disturbing to know her mouth was rather foul smelling, so at least it would smell more like sea water and salt than it would of natural...smells. Eventually Alka made a gargling noise and spit it back out, offering her hand out to grab Luna and nodded, before opening her mouth and putting her in, as usual, under her tongue. Alka took care in closing her mouth and of not really using her tongue to do a whole lot. She knew that most actions she could do normally would kill humans, so she dove after closing her mouth and tried to do gentle motions. The trip took a few more than two seconds, probably about twenty, but at last Luna would see Alka's mouth opening, and a hand come to the edge of the mouth for her to grab on and pull her out. Once she was clear, Alka moved the hand to the top of her head. Yes, it was wet, but there was plenty to hang on and tangle up in. "Fantastic. Hold on and we'll go." So it was, and so Luna and Alka set off once again for Yoroi Island. **Exit Alka and Luna to Yoroi Island** (:

Alka Anarchy
After probably a two hour swim at her pace, Alka finally crawled into the only accessible socket of the island's namesake shell. "Ugh...Uooohh...feel like I'm gonna pass out. S-soundsss good. Want food....ehh......noooouuoooo...food, forget it. Sleep firsssst." In probably the most slurred speech one could ever hear slip between probably the worlds' most beautiful creatures, Alka simply laid down around the far side of the "island", and drifted slowly into slumber. Of course, it might be days before she'd wake up, but with no need to come above the surface of the water aside from the apparently bypassed hunger, Alka effectively moved into a mini-hibernation of sorts. Alka never had dreams, for whatever reason. She did however, move in her sleep, but only rolling and shifting...certainly nothing to worry of actually slipping back out into the ocean from her current location, though it would nudge the island closer and closer towards the socket, collapsing the sand to nearly obstruct the socket's entryway inside the island, and to the then world's second most wanted being.

 A man who'd been floating along on a piece of drift woof got god knew how long finally washed up on shore... He dragged his now skinny, due to a lack of food- carcass onto the beach as he for what ever reason just kept trying to get hire up the shore... "need to... get to... higher... ground..." He mumbled to himself looking exhausted... As he finally got to his feet, he managed about three steps- before tripping and falling into what seemed to be some kind of hole like crack... He hit a wall with his shoulder, causing him great pain as he seemed to enter some kind of giant cave like anomaly... All he could see was blurry water... And a large whitish blurry image floating in it... 'sad it ends... before I could get a look... at that ship...' He thought with a quiet exhausted laugh as he shut his eye's slowly- only to land on/between something(s) soft, bounding up once, before landing on it again... It was like... laying on the surface of water... But he wasn't sinking? All he knew was... He felt warm? Somewhat safe... He quickly passed out at the thought of it.
((to lazy to make a format right now lol))

Alka Anarchy
It wasn't that Alka floated while sleeping, quite the converse. Gravity held firm its grip on the leviathan mermaid. She was just that big. It wasn't usually a problem if she slept on her front, but her current toss and turn position left her on her back, and consequently, saving the young man's life...albeit unconsciously. However, they were sensitive, and whatever had dropped or flopped onto her chest wasn't moving or getting off. It was certainly warm, which meant a being. Anything that got up there would have had to climb on her to get that far, and she thought she would have felt that. Like an alarm clock, albeit one attached to her, Alka slowly opened her mouth and began sitting up. Propping herself up on her elbows, her head cleared the water, and stared down at her chest, but noticing the offending object on her shirt. It took a while for her to see it clearly, but her eyes widened in a sort of rage as she did. "Y-Y-You...you...just...YOU!!" Alka promptly shifted her weight on to one elbow and with her free hand now, she plucked him off of her chest and abruptly tossed him to the sand. "Listen here, you filthy, lecherous human! I am NOT your personal sleeping mattress! I don't know how you got in here, but I aim to make certain you are SO leaving in a very small box, floating out to sea for the birds to eat! ARE YOU HEARING ME!?!" Alka hadn't quite realized yet that this human was not conscious, and therefore...no. No he wasn't hearing her. Furiously did Alka storm about the cavern, just waiting for him to wake up. Once conscious of the fact that he was unconscious, she thumped her tail and beat the sand with her fist. She ground her teeth, not having any real way to make him say he was sorry or prepare to pay in retribution for his "offense".

As Hiro was tossed so abruptly onto the sands, he hit it with a slide as he remained passed out... After ten minutes of furious thrashing and such nots. His eye's came to a slow open as a blurry image could be seen apparently angry? In front of him as he leaned up slowly. He looked up at Alka, rubbing his eye's to try and clear them as he simply stared up at the giant fish girl for about ten seconds. "You're quite beautiful" He said calmly as he smiled up at her. His smile was fairly large, and was genuinely happy- or at least as close to such as one could be just after waking up... "Why does one as beautiful as your self look so angry my dear? Has something happened? Can I do anything to make it better? I'm sure I can make anything you'd need" He said reaching into his jacket. "just a moment" He said before pulling out a tiny carved wooden rose as he held it up to Alka. "Here!" He said, that smile of his still not fading... "I made it my self! something for a pretty lady, and a sample of what I can do" He said... Well he was either a player... Or half out of it... Probably a little of both.. But this was one of those 'don't judge a book by it's cover' type of situations really...

Alka Anarchy
A look of indignation crossed Alka's face, and it was quite clear. If it was the one thing being giant did for her, it was to clearly get across one's facial expressions as a reflection of her mood. And she was good at expressing them. Her eyebrow twitched as her face scrunched up as he seemed to take her presence so...so casually. She threw her head back and nearly screamed her answer. "Anything happened?! You touched my breasts!!!" Her chest heaved as she drew in and exhaled breath rapidly before finally slamming her hands down on either side of them and put her face about as close to level with his as she could. "What IS it with your human mothers? Do they insist on dropping EVERY child they give birth to? Don't you know who I am?? You're talking to me like I'm just your average passer-by and you're peddling stuff. It didn't work back at fishman island, and it's definitely not gonna work now, unless you have something my size, which you don't! And what IS that anyway? It's so tiny, I can't very well see it. Also, how DID you get in here? The only entrance is inaccessible to humans, since your kind can't dive down that deep without equipment....and you don't have any on. So then, you're here in the middle of nowhere because......?"

"T-touched y-you b-breasts!?!?!?" He yelled as his face turned red... He face palmed him self as he held up both his hands. "I'M SORRY!!! I DIDN'T KNOW!!!!" He cried out still apparently treating the size difference like it was nothing... "And I'm afraid I don't know who you are- I'm Hirosama!" He said holding up his tiny hand for a shake. "it's a pleasure to meet you ms..." He trailed off as he waited to hear her name. "I'm sure I could make something for you size with great ease! maybe a hair clip or something of that nature? just name what you want! anything! it's the least I can do for what I..." He looked down at his hands, before looking at Alka's chest. 'how is that even possible?' He thought to him self as he looked back up at Alka with a big smile yet again before pointing up at the cieling. "I fell through a hole up there" He said gripping his shoulder as he flinched slightly. "that's right... I hit my shoulder... I'm afraid you might have to wait a little while on that gift..." He mumbled lowering his head in shame...

Alka Anarchy
Alka rolled her eyes, and shook her head at his attempts to apologize. It was one of those "get over it" moments for her. He'd done it and there was nothing he could do for her to apologize. So it just happened. Time to get over it, get back to normal work, and somehow find her crew. Sighing, Alka picked him up by the torso, and rose up slightly. "So you fell through one of the cracks. I see. Well, now at least I know that it isn't safe to sleep here anymore if YOU fell through. So much for the home. At any rate, if you can stop staring at my chest long enough to hear me, my name is Alka, and I don't like humans. I'm a part-time pirate and the rest of the time a free-lance revolutionary destroying government facilities in the hopes of eliminating the bubbleheads the marines seem to serve....you aren't one of those miserable lapdogs...are you? Ahh, never mind. It won't matter anyway, so quit feeling sorry for yourself and tell me where it is you want to be dropped off. Barring Yoroi Island, of course. I've visited there once too many here recently, so unless you've got a destination in mind, I suppose I'll tow you around...er...Hee...Hih...Heerow...Hiro. There. That'll do. It somewhat resembles a name. So before you state that, what do you do for a living...anything...useful?" Alka launched question after question, but seemingly held more important ones towards the end of her "speech". With some difficulty pronouncing his name, Alka figured it was a good halfway meeting point. She tried to pronounce his name and call him by it, and in turn, she hoped that he did something useful. Being friendly wasn't among her strong points, but she certainly couldn't have this guy ratting out where she had stayed.
