Falchions amry was baording the ships when the Captain looked up to see the infamous Renji running towards him. "Kibo you bloody pirate." He looked towards his army. "Get onto the ships! Hurry! Ill hold this being off while you set sail. Ill catch up!"
He runs over and stands in front of Renji. He tals casually, "What is it that Kibo actually has against me? He sends you and dosnt come himself? You dont seem to get that your his tool. If you betray him he'll kill you in an instant. Your nothing but a lowly subject of his. Kibo will stab you in the back the minute he sees his chance. Now go and tell him to fight me in person. Ill be back in three weeks. He can wait that long to lose cant he? Now go!" He through a grenade which flashed and the giant hand came out of the ground to take Genji back.
"Thank you kibo. for this 'present' from so long ago. I know you missed it as it would be used against you, but as a pirate I couldnt help myself than to take a little something from your ships cabin while I was inside. You just are too funny to not have noticed the fake grenade I put in place of the real one. Now you will truly feel my anger."
As he stepped onto the ship a storm cloud gathered and he set sail with his fleet towards Tortuga. And Kibo.

Storm sketched a bow to Kibo.
"Excuse me, sir, but it seems as if your spirits have failed. I think I'll go give him a personal message of mine as yours have yet to be spoken and seems to have been shot to pieces."
She grinned.
"Besides, you'll have Zia and Maida to keep you company."
She waved her hand and the insationable duo stepped out of thin air.
"Hellohello again, Kibo!" "Seems we can't stop running into each other, no?"
Storm bowed again and stepped into the Between. An hour later and she stepped back out into the World As It Is in Falchion's cabin. Figuring she had a long wait till he came in, she skipped her lucky golden crown out of her pocket and across her knuckles.

Falchion entered his cabin without giving Storm a notice. "Well, what is it that you want. I told Kibo to fight me not you, for I have not vendetta of any sort against you." He looked at the crown she was holding. "So whats the relationship with you two? You seem to be close."
He walked over to the corner and fed his Cormorant a fish. It squawked and fell asleep. "And, what exactly do yout hink of him pirate wise?"

Storm shrugged.
"No, not really. He's a...capable pirate, if a bit on the honorfic side."
Her worn coin skipped across her narrow knuckles yet again.
"Why did you stop his spirit? 'Tisn't like your own men deserved more and humans die so quickly and easily."

He looked at her with a stare, "youll learn in time about me: I am loyal to all who serve me and they know that. That is how I defeated the Muslims in the middle east, because they knew they could count on me to have their backs and fight alongside them."

Kibo chuckled as Renji reappeared at his side. Kibo: You were sucessful? Renji: *grins* Damn straight. He holds up a map, with a small drawing of a ship, labeled "Falchion." Kibo peered closer at the dot, and noticed that it was, as he expected, moving. Kibo: Good. I take it he wants to fight me face to face? Renji: Yep. He doesn't realize that you were trying to let him off easy by sending me. Poor fool. Kibo: *shrugging* Oh well. Some people never learn, huh? On Falchion's ship, a small, round package rolls into his room. Tacked on the front is a note. "I found this a while ago. It was broken, so I reworked it a bit. Thanks for keeping me busy during those long afternoons! Oh, and I'm confident Storm can protect herself. Kibo"
The package, seeming on its own, opened, revealing a dummy grenade. The paper opens more, revealing a post script under Kibo's signature. "You have three seconds."

Storm shot him a pitying look.
"Loyalty is overrated. ’Tis a shame you haven't learned that just yet. You will once one of your under captains decides she'll be a better commander then you."
She grinned seeing the note appear.
"Kibo sends his love."
Storm drew a quick fiery rune in the air that flew back and hit her, fading as quickly as it came.
She thought for a moment.
"You seem a nice felleow, excluding the whole killing all the muslims thing."
Storm traced the same rune, inverted, and watched as it flew back into his chest and faded away.

"What was that? When that time comes I would gladly let them take over. Although for the fact that arrogance against someone is not the way to power. They will mos tlikely relinquish it after a week or too for they would mess up or make bad decisions etc. But if they truly are better tham me I will be forced to pay them enough to start a crew of their own and buy a ship and Ill take my ships elsewhere to find a new crew. Simple as that."

Kibo chuckles, walking into the room. The grenade fizzles, and pops harmlessly.
Kibo: Very nice. You didn't even break your stride. Maybe you're tougher than I gave you credit for. But not by much.
Kibo pulls his right glove off, and unsheathes the blade slung on his back.
Kibo: Shall we, or would you rather fight somewhere else? Ondeck, maybe?

Storm sighed magnanimously.
"Could you kill each other in a few moments, please? I'd like to know where a pirate commander-in-chief gets a bout of meek humility. I know sure as hell that I'd kill the attempted usurper and move on. And that was a protection rune. The shrapnel would've just blown through you."

"Ah, I give thanks to you for your caring." HE grinned at Storm. "Now Kibo, don't rush intot hings you can't get out of. Storm here, will be a judge of sorts. The terms will be :
-no necromancy stuff
-only swords may be used
-and don't bend around the rules becasue I used the wrong word fro your magic-ish ability you have.
Just make this a fair fight between two rivals. where is you win I will certainly give you 1 million florins. And you should wager somethigng as well, no?"

Kibo: No Necromancy. Sounds like a deal.
His left hand twitches slightly as he extends his right, accepting of the terms.
Kibo: I'll wager half the contents of my treasure store. That seems to be about 1 million florins, if I'm correct. Do we have a deal?

"Yes, a deal is a deal as what seems." Falchion walks over and shakes his hand before releasing and walking behind his desk. He unhatches a picture and behind it is a chest. He opens it and withdraws a peculiar pair of swords. One was curved backwards and had a parallel spike jutting out near the end. It was also had a faint navy blue luster. The other was longer and had a blade encrusted with jewels around a rectangular hole in the middle before connecting back at the end. "As for arena the deck is fine."

Storm had to laugh.
"Kibo is going to fight you without his necromancy?"
She turned to Kibo.
"No sucking out his soul with you're new sword. That comes later, after you get paid, savy?"

Kibo: Alright. I'll just hurt him a little. Maybe only take an arm.
He pulls on his left middle finger, and an arm-length, flesh-colored glove comes off, revealing a slender, blood-red hand.
Kibo: Like it? I got it in a fight to get this sword.
He holds his hand out, and a sword "grows" out of the palm, the bleached-bone hilt gleaming in the candlelight.
Kibo: It's called Charon's Claw. Don't worry, I won't let it kill you.
He looks at the skull at the pommel.
Kibo: Don't kill him. He's a friend, alright?
The jewels in the eye sockets flash, seemingly accepting his request.
Kibo: Alright then. See you on the deck, Falchion!
Kibo walks out the door, and up the stairs.
