Mission 32:The hunt for a pirate.

[lily]

Kaito was wondering into a town where the buildings where circle. "Hmm...that's a little odd.." He said out loud as he saw some people on the road ahead. "Oi!" He called out to the group "Have you seen thi-.." He stopped mid sentence as he looked at their heads. They were round! Kaito tried to compose himself "Excuse me? Have you seen this man?" He held up the wanted poster of Frilly Beard. The group of people all shook their heads as they saw his picture. "Huh.." sighed Kaito as he walked over to a hill slightly outside of the town. He sat down on it and said "I better hurry and find this guy soon or else i'll never find him.." he put his hands behind his head and layed back on the hill.

Aruha landed on Noro Island after being at sea for atleast 2 weeks. She jumped off her boat and onto the sands of the beach. Laying on the beach for a little while she took in the feeling of something that didn't rock on her feet, even though it was just sand it felt much better than wood. After taking in a good amount of sand she got up, retrieved her axe and quiver from the boat and continued on.

As she walked into town she remembered she had pocketed a wanted poster. Opening it up she saw the name "Captain Frilly Beard". He didn't seem to tough, but then she didn't seem to tough either she was only a 12 year old girl. Amused she remembered why she had picked this poster up.

~~Flashback Scene (FTW)~~
Aruha was walking around Water 7 in boredom. Silently eavesdropping on some people standing around a wanted poster board. They were talking about the Frilly Beard and how he had been spotted in a Noro Town on the Dream Route. After overhearing that Aruha was curious as to his this man was. Once the people left the board she had secretly pocketed the wanted poster and ran off.

Grabbing her boat she had floated off back towards her starting point so she could get on the Dream Route. It had taken some time and after a while she just remembered she was going to Noro Town and not the reason why. . . .

~~End Flashback~~

As Aruha walked around she noticed a boy running around seeing if people recognized someone on a piece of paper he was holding. On closer inspection she was surprised to see that he was also looking for Captain Frilly Beard. Intrigued at the possibility of help she had followed him in the silence as she had learned to in the forest. As he lay on the hill she had finally approached him.

Standing over him and looking down, though not so close that he could look up his skirt (you know all boys are pervs, or the majority at least, no offense to yours if he isn't but its just for precaution). She started talking "So your looking for this Frilly Beard too ehh? . .. . Mind joining up with me, some company would be nice once and a while." She waited for the response . . .

There was a very old woman, probably around 90 years old or more, sitting on one of the tables outside the restaurant and drinking tea. She had beautiful long silver hair and was wearing a black dress. Not the sort of elegant black but a black that was closer to gray and showed how old the dress was. And yes, she was sitting ON the table, not no the chair beside it but on the table, letting her feet rest on the chair and watching the people around her.

"Hey Girl!" she called the waitress, who clear for everyone wasn't a girl anymore, but probably in her forties. "Bring me another cup of tea. This time I try the one called "Happy Day", and don't you dare to put in any sugar, that just kills the flavor!"

Arianrhod D. Scarlet (the D. was standing for Darshana and was not related at all to the famous D. some people were caring in their name) opened a newspaper she had fished out of the trash and began to read it. There was also a bounty poster in it and Arian took a look at it.

"Look at that Kyon!" she said to the ginger cat at her side, that was sitting on a large and heavy looking frying pan. "Captain Frilly Beard! HA! The names they give themself today are turning more and more stupid! Beard this beard that.... I wouldn't be surprised if there is a Baldy Beard around somewhere."

Arian took the cup of tea from the hands of the not so happy looking waitress. The woman wasn't used to guests that were sitting on the table, but since this was an old person she decided not to say anything.

Quietly Arian drank her tea while she wondered what kids this day were doing with a wanted poster of a well.. wanted criminal. She didn't liked the thought of them running around with something like that, who knew if they weren't going to do anything stupid, and in the short time she had been sitting here she already spotted two of them.
She took another gulp of her tea while trying asking herself if she should poke her nose into this.

The answer was of course yes.

At the same restaurant there sat a young lady with perfectly white skin and silky black hair. She was beautiful. She seemed to be blind as her eye was closed at all times. She was dressed completely in black and used an black umbrella to block the sun. Her dress was well made and a bit extravagant, it caught a lot of attention. She gave of the air off being an important person. She was a sight and made many passersby curious and pause their step before they moved on.

Aikoh was amused by the fact she was drawing attention. She sat near the old woman, who was loud in her opinion. She ignored her for the most part and silently sipped her tea. She listened closely to her surroundings to find something interesting. She was intrigued by the fact she heard the name "frilly beard so many times around the same time. She thought it was a weird name, barbaric and uncreative to be exact. She listened carefully for more information on the pirate but little was spoken out loud, the loud old woman was still bothering her. She elegantly lifted herself from the chair she had been seated on and walked up to the woman. "excuse me, madam can you please be a bit more silent?" She politely asked, she was taught that the elderly people deserved respect even if they were only old and not wise. She noticed the cat just moments after reaching their table. "What a lovely cat, is it yours?" she said and smiled in the direction of the cat. Aikoh had not opened her eye for a minute, she may have only one blind eye but she kept her other closed most of the time.

On this sunny day there was a slight breeze outside which made Yushiro's silky blue hair flow in the wind. After his sudden change in appearance from his dyed white hair to his natural blue hair, he could move around freely without having being chased by marines. He had his two swords, one on each side of his waist shining in the light.

He walked through the town getting weird looks from everyone and he gave them right back. He had never seen people with such round heads except back at his home town, there was this kid who had a round head. He continued walking until he reached the center of the town and he noticed someone normal looking holding up a wanted poster. He walked a little bit closer and saw that it was a picture of Frilly Beard. Yushiro walked up to this man that is now laying on a hill and asked, "So your looking for Frilly beard as well. The names Santoryu Yushiro. Nice to meet you."
