And you thought it was me who was going to be evil.

@ Flynt - No you're not going to turn evil.
Bowing reverently, the Druid answered, "I'm sure I don't know. I'm only repeating what the trees tell me." Turning back to Gashka, she replied with fire in her eyes, "The Carver. That monster is the most elusive creature ever to stalk this area. Even our abilities combined with those of The Protector can't pin him down. You say you have a companion that has been in that thing's clutches, and lived? Could you bring him here?"
Gashka |
She nods and mounts Chevalier, "If it would help us to figure out how to defeat that...that thing, then Ill do anything you ask of me. Could you figure out what was done to him?" She asks while sitting on the horse.

She nods, "I understand, it's more help than I could have hoped for. If there's even a chance of being able to figure out this mystery.....then it's worth it. He may not be able to answer too many questions though as he remembers nothing of what happened to him. Ill return with him as soon as I can. Thank you, thank you so much." Looking over at Terra she says, "C'mon lets get back to the ship. Ill need you to stay there and explain to the others what's going on while I bring Chris back. The sooner we have some answers, the better." She explains the plan to Terra as they exit the grove together.
Stopping the horse by Flynt she reaches out her hand for him to get on and explains what she intends to do. "When we get back to the ship, would you mind making sure he gets some water while I find Chris? I just don't wanna take too long doing this. I know my Mr. Pirate pants is eager to head for the ruins." She giggles despite herself.

"I'm not exactly sure about it all myself. Right now we're going back to the ship for me to fetch Chris and take him back to the grove. They might be able to tell us something that will help us against the carver/piper....whatever it is. Then once we have as much information as we can get, we head to the ruins." Once back at the ship, she leaves Chevalier in Flynts very capable hands while she looks for Chris.

Chris follows the sailors about on the deck of the ship, trying not to be distracted by Tehanna and her beauty.

Confused as to what Chris is doing on deck she shakes her head and finds Tikkle with Jeggs. Walking over to the pair she taps Tikkle on the arm, "Hey...I need to talk to you for just a minute." She cocks an eyebrow at him with her familiar, this talk is not optional look as she turns and heads for his cabin.

Tikkle |
As Tikkle turns around to speak with Gashka, Jeggs tries to capitalize on the opening, for which he catches an elbow to the beak. "Yes, love? What can I help you with?"

Smirking at her Pirate she crooks a finger at him to follow her. "Tikkle you're absolutely.....oh nevermind. Just come with me to your cabin please. Id like our talk to be a little more.....private." She shakes her head and smiles as she grabs him by the paw and has him follow her. "C'mon Capt Pirate Pants...." She giggles slightly.

Stopping the horse by Flynt she reaches out her hand for him to get on and explains what she intends to do. "When we get back to the ship, would you mind making sure he gets some water while I find Chris? I just don't wanna take too long doing this.

"Yea, of course I will."
Flynt |
Once back at the ship, Terra pulls Flynt aside.
Is there something you wanna say? I mean this marked soul thing? should I be worried? Terra looks a bit concerned about him and their relationship.
"I've told you and Gashka everything. I have no idea about my marked soul. Frankly that part is new for me." Flynt shrugs.
Gashka |
No...no way. Absolutely NOT!!! Don't even mess with my head like that man. It's not funny and right now I'm just hoping that Tikkle don't get it into his head to pick me up and try to carry me to his cabin like some kind of caveman. *nervous laughter*
Gashka |
I think we're all a bit curious at this point. That's why I'm trying to get as much information as possible. The more we know the less likely we're to be surprised by something and have our asses handed to us. I don't think he'd do that. I mean...he wouldn't....
Tikkle |
...right now I'm just hoping that Tikkle don't get it into his head to pick me up and try to carry me to his cabin like some kind of caveman. *nervous laughter*
somehow you know me... that is EXACTLY what I was thinking even before you said that xD
Tikkle cocks an eyebrow at her seductive movement right as he sees his opportunity to show off: the jib sheet (a rope) was too heavily weighted for one person, but if he had guessed correctly, it would be just enough to counter most of his and Gashka's weight.
He catches up to her as she walks by it, wraps his left arm up in the sheet, and grabs her at the waist with his right. "Lets use the shortcut," he says as he kicks the rope loose of the cleat and jumps. Just as expected, it carries the two of them smoothly over the railing in front of the tiller and gently lowers them to right in front of the door to Tikkle's cabin, which he opens.
"After you my sweet"

Gashka doesn't even have time to scream as she's suddenly lifted off the ground and then suddenly infront of his cabin door. Once she gets her breath back she turns around with a pouty smirk and bats at his arm, though not too hard. "Tikkle Ashcoat don't you ever go swingin through the air like that with me without a warning again. You're lucky I love ya so damn much." She says as she walks into the cabin while shaking her head.

Gashka |
While I hadn't thought I would be swung through the air like some damsel in some Tarzan movie...I pretty much figured that your pirate butt would pull off some crazy maneuver like that. It's just who you are and one of the many reasons that she loves you, like she said, so damn much. Lol Though, a warning might keep ya from getting yelled at next time. hehehe I don't know how long we'll up, having some hot tea right now...but we're both feeling pretty wiped out.
Tikkle |
Who else but Tikkle? Ba-dat-dum, dadum-dum hey!

Gashka |
Gashka goes and sits on his bed as she waits for Tikkle to come in and shut the door.
Once he's in the room and the door is shut she says, "I need to talk to you about Chris. He has a scar, that he doesn't remember getting, that's very similar to those of the Carver victims. I told the Druid I saw in the grove about it.....and they want me to bring him to them. They might be able to provide us with more information.....but there's never actually been a survivor of his handiwork before, so.....I wanted to go back to the grove with him to see what, if anything they can tell us. Also, why do you have him playing around with your other sailors Ashy? He's a healer and a damn fine alchemist.....so, I thought that was enough to be included on this ship.....you aren't trying to impose any of those silly rules of yours that you rarely follow yourself are you?" She shakes her head, "Anyways I just wanted to let you know what was going on before I took off again with your newest recruit. Oh, Flynt can't go back with me to the grove, something about his soul being tainted by something." She stands up and stretches before standing in front of him as he sits on the bed.
"I'm sorry to drop all of this on you, but I really need to snatch Chris and get going. Ill be back as soon as I can okay?" She stands there for a minute with her arms wrapped around his neck as she waits to see what he has to say.

As the crew set about their duties and trained the newest crew members, a female messenger arrived with a parcel. "Pardon me, I'm looking for a young man that looks like...Oh never mind, I see him."
Seeing Christophe, she walked over to him and said, "I have a package here for you, from a Master Spellshard."
Tikkle |
"Chris was adamant that he join the crew, and in the middle of a hurricane I have no need of a healer who can't sail. He has to learn all that just like every other member. In fact, most pirate ships go down because their crews, however bloodthirsty and infamous, can't sail properly. So far as my rules, my captain taught them to me, and they have their purpose. All that said, Chris' first responsibility is still to our cause. Take him as you will, I'm gonna see about procuring a faster way to the ruins."
Just as he finishes there is a knock at the door. "Cap'n, messenger aboard. Has a package for the new bloke."
"I'll be out in a moment." Tikkle pauses before exiting, "Is that all, love?"

Shaken from his thoughts by the messenger, Chris takes the package. "Thank you."
He fishes out a gold piece and hands it to the woman.

Jeggs |
Jeggs is standing on the gangplank. "When boardin a ship, it's only courtesy te' give regards to the Cap'n, Lass. He'll be right out." He is obviously not intending to be threatening in any way, unless it comes to that.

Gashka |
She cocks an eyebrow at him, "Nope, but the rest can....wait. I have too many thoughts in my head right now....but later we'll talk further." She turns and walks out to find Chris and see what the messenger brought in case it was bad.

Gashka |
Her eyes get a little big as she looks at the box a little apprehensively, "Ooohhh be careful....no telling what's in there then. I wonder if I should have Tikkle and the others over here for this just in case something....weird happens?"
Gashka |
"Okay...wait right there don't open it till we have everyone around you." Gashka almost seems more nervous than Chris at not having any idea what could possibly be in the package that pertains to the place he last remembered being at before having three years of his life just sucked away along with his memory of them.
Looking around she spies Tikkle and some of the others nearby, she knew Flynt was down on the docks with Terra and the horse. Going to the closest railing to them she yells down, "Hey!! Flynt, Terra...put Chevalier up and get up here A.S.A.P!" She wasn't sure what was in the box and it may be nothing, but they had been through enough weird s&!* lately to know that anything was possible.
Once she was sure she had Flynt and Terra's attention, she looks over at Anyka and Jin as they stood together on the deck, I hope I'm right in remembering where people are and beckons them to come over to where she stands with Chris as well. Then seeing Tikkle heading towards the messenger girl she hails him, "Tickle Ashcoat! Hurry up and get back over here, I want everyone right here in case this is some crazy something. There's been far too much crazy s&@@ going on lately for me to trust anything, and I'd rather have us all together if something were to happen. Better safe than sorry. And if it's not something crazy, then we're safe and I just look like a crazy lady...but that's okay as long as we're all safe." She transfers back and forth from one foot to the other nervously as they wait for everyone to show up so they can see what's inside the box. Maybe it was nothing, maybe just a note, or perhaps another crazy portal or something...but, whatever it was she'd be damned if she'd just stand there and let Chris open some strange box by himself.
Gashka |
I'll get ya back to see the druids as long as we don't get sucked into some scary alternate dimension or whatever again. Answers are answers though I guess....
