Tetsuo gripped his shoulder and frowned. "Yeah, they're pretty famous, aren't they?" He asked. The frown was from what Samantha said.
~~
Shotaro groaned when she went under once more. He took in a breathe before going down, trying to grab her and bring her back to the surface.

Calli nodded to him before looking at Samantha and sighing audibly. "Fine, I'm coming..." she moaned. She waved to Tetsuo as she joined her friend. "Thanks!" she called.
~~~
Scarlet reattached herself to Shotaro and gave a few kicks to help bring them back to the surface. "Note to self... swordfighting in the water is not yet something I can do," she murmured, coughing a few times.

Want to have a marine spot Tetsuo and chase them? xD So they find out about him being Ace's son?))
~~
Shotaro gritted his teeth in pain. "COME ON!" He almost shouted as he kept going. He finally got to the boat and tossed the two onto it.

Sure, why not? xD]] Want me to rp the marine? I could have Calli's dad spot them aka Admiral Coby]]
~~~
Scarlet rolled onto her back, waiting until she caught her breath before sitting up. "Thanks," she gasped. She pushed strings of wet hair away from her face and glanced at the clone sprawled out beside her. "I owe ya one," she added.

Coby!? Omg... xD ))
~~
Shotora crawled onto the small boat and gasped for breathe. His jaw dropped when he saw the clone and who it looked like. "Wha?" He could only splutter.

"Let's just go, and I'm sorry I've had a bad past with a few of the nenbers," Samantha explained before she hears some stomping of troops. "Callie I think your dad is coming," Samantha said.

Yup xD *sniff* Our little Coby's all grown up now ;u; ]]
"My dad? Man, I told him I'd be back for dinner," Calli said, crossing her arms. She looked around, but couldn't see anyone coming yet.
~~~
"Yeah, I had the same reaction..." Scarlet murmured, seeing Shotaro's jaw drop. "I also dropped a fresh bag of strawberries, right after I paid for them," she added, wiping a fake tear from her eye.

Sauri pulled out a small transponder snail and brought it up to her mouth. "Surround the area, don't let them escape." She ordered before letting out a sigh. She would have to use a lot of energy to do this, but this was her best shot at capturing the target. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, holding out her palms. Green energy flowed out of her palms and she opened her eyes, stepping forward and dragging her hands up, a large root shooting out of the ground and shooting out over the ocean. She jumped up onto the root and ran along it as it shot forward towards the rowboat. She used some of the vines from the root to create a spear, which she was planning to use to impale the man who was getting away with her target.
The clone coughed once he was dragged into the rowboat, water spewing from his mouth. "That was super crazy.." he groaned
~
"Never seen her before in my life." Jax shrugged. "Didn't seem to be from around here."
"Yeah, And I'm not from here myself, so I wouldn't know." Kasopp added, watching after the girl who ran off in a hurry

Hi!]]
"Fine," Calli murmured, letting herself be pushed this time.
~~~
"So you're awake again, great timing," Scarlet said, looking over at the clone. "You're welcome, by the way, do you have any idea how heavy you are?" she added, poking him a few times.
~~~
"That was... odd," Kyoden murmured, watching the girl as well. He shrugged, and continued on leading Jax and Kasopp. Soon the flag of his crew was visible, floating in the wind between the multitude of masts.

"Um, I think that lady is trying to come after us." Shotaro pointed to the vines which were created to get over here. He quickly jumped off the row boat, grabbed the edge, and started kicking as fast as he could. "I'll be the motor for now," he mumbled, hoping they would get to the ship.
~~
Tetsuo raised an eyebrow at them and glanced over his shoulder. "Your father is part of the marines?" He asked, hoping they weren't coming for him. His feet followed the girls to the store and tilted his hat forward to cover his face.
~~
Kaori grabbed hold of a pole nearby and swung around it, sling shotting past the people she just met. "WHOO HOO!!" She yelled as she zipped past others, but slammed face first into a random ship.

"Yeah, she wants him," Scarlet said, pointing at the clone. After Shotaro started pushing the rowboat along she stood on wobbly legs with her remaining sword still unsheathed, ready to attempt fighting if Sauri came close enough. Her free hand was holding onto the rim of the rowboat, keeping her steady.
~~~
Calli nodded. "Yup, he's an admiral," she said, strolling into the shop behind Samantha. She giggled, glancing back over her shoulder. "He doesn't know I'm friends with a pirate though."
~~~
"What was that?!" A gruff, low voice called out as soon as Kaori slammed into the ship. The voice belonged to a tall rugged-looking man with simple clothing and a long black coat hanging off his shoulders. He stepped out onto the deck and looked down, scratching his beard after seeing Kaori. "What do you think yer doing to my ship!? I already have a broken mast, I don't need a cracked hull on top of that!"
Kyoden's next step hesitated, he knew that voice anywhere. "That would be my captain," he said, looking back at Jax and Kasopp. "Wonder what happened, he does not sound too happy..."

"I'm not surprised," Shotaro grumbled as he kicked faster. "Are we closed to your ship yet?" He asked. Well, he hoped it was their ship or someone won't be happy to see their ship gone.
~~
Tetsuo tilted his head. "Friend with a pirate?" He asked, rubbing his chin. "Is that your girlfriend here or me?" He asked with a slight grin.
~~
Kaori lifted her head to look at the pirate and she flashed him a smile. "Well, hi!" She greeted happily. "I like your beard!" She reached up, arms extending and grabbing hold of the ship's edge before flinging herself onto the boat.

Hello!]]
"We're almost there. If you stop kicking now it'll float the rest of the way," Scarlet said. She sheathed the sword and turned around to offer her hand to Shotaro, to help pull him back on board.
~~~
"I was talking about Samantha, but more friends are always welcome," Calli said with a laugh. "I'm Calli, by the way." She looked out the shop door once more and sure enough saw her father rounding the corner. He was conversing with a few of the local soldiers and hadn't seemed to notice them yet.
~~~
"Flattery's not gettin' ya anywhere with me," the pirate growled. He took a few steps back when the girl landed on the deck before him, scratching his head as he wondered how that girl managed to stretch her arms like that. His angered expression returned and he pointed to the side of the ship. "Soon as the shipwright gets here I'll have 'im look at the hull. If it's the slightest bit broken you're paying for it!"

Shotaro grabbed her hand and pulled himself onto the boat. "Is it your ship?" He asked hopefully. "I don't want to steal someone else's ship..."
~~
Tetsuo also noticed her father and the other marines. "Uh oh..." He tilted his hat down more and placed his hand over the tattoo. "Let's hope your dad doesn't notice me."
~~
Kaori grinned more at his voice. "Aye, aye captain!" She straightened up and saluted. "Can I pay with my services though?"

"Yes, it's my ship," Scarlet said, looking up at it. "Man, I was so worried it was gonna float away and I'd never see it again," she sighed, wiping the back of her hand across her forehead.
~~~
Calli ducked behind a sales display, but couldn't help but peek out a bit from behind as the marines neared the center of the square.
"The Whitebeard pirates?! Here?" The admiral suddenly exclaimed. "Surely whoever reported this was mistaken."
One of the marines shrugged and shook his head. "We received more than one report of this man, admiral Coby, and all of the sightings perfectly described the Whitebeard pirates' symbol."
"Has anything been done about this yet?" Coby asked.
"Well, not yet, actually..."
~~~
The pirate narrowed his eyes, giving his beard another scratch. "With your services, eh? What can ye do?" he asked.

"Good thing I came here when I did." Shotaro couldn't help but feel proud about himself. "I don't think you two would make it out without me." He slightly grinned, but it left as quickly as it came. He knew they were still in danger with that one lady still around.
~~
Tetsuo chuckled when she hid and glanced over his shoulder. If the marines found him then there will be a show for the entire town to see because he won't go down without a fight. His feet pivoted so his body faced the marines and he made sure his hat didn't move though.
~~
"I can do this!" Kaori suddenly stretched her arm and randomly punched a stranger down at the dock. The person got knocked out quickly. "Also, this." She made her body into a giant balloon basically and floated around a little.

"I think I would have just sunk or something eventually. We definitely wouldn't have made it to my ship. So yeah, thanks again," Scarlet said, one corner of her mouth curling up. The side of her ship was nearly within arm's reach now and she moved to the front of the rowboat, ready to grab onto whatever she could.
~~~
"He's going to see you!" Calli squeaked from her hiding spot, though her voice came out a little louder than planned. The marines heard it and looked in their direction. After a moment of scrutiny, their eyes widened.
"Admiral, the young man standing at the shop across the way fits the descriptions we've been given," one of them said in a hushed tone.
Coby frowned, but calmly followed the gazes of his colleagues to Tetsuo. He adjusted his glasses and took a few steps forward. "You there, excuse me, but could you lift your hat and state your name?" he asked.
~~~
The pirate looked on with interest, and let out a hearty chuckle when Kaori inflated into a balloon. "You're certainly an interesting one! You must have eaten a devil fruit. I think we can use ye on the ship," he said.
Kyoden was quickly leading Jax and Kasopp to the ship he called home, and was on his way down the boardwalk at the tail end of the conversation.
Rip random stranger xD]]

"Um, would you mind if I came on board?" Shotaro asked anxiously. The lady didn't seem quite happy with him rescuing the two and if she got ahold of him... Well, he's dead meat then. "I helped you now can you help me?" He almost begged this time.
~~
Tetsuo lifted the hat, flashing Coby a sly smile. "And what if I don't give ye my name?" He asked, placing his hands onto his hips. "Do I get fined?" The smile widened and became more goofy. He couldn't wait to have a little fun now.
~~
Kaori let out the air and flopped down on her butt. She noticed the man she went past as she escaped the one angry man. "Hey! You're the guy who told me to watch where I'm going!"

]] "No, you saved me and now I'm going to leave you here to face her alone." Scarlet said in a completely deadpan tone, but she could only hold it for so long before laughing. "Of course! I did say I owe ya one. I'm probably gonna need more help getting away from all this anyway." ~~~ "I'm afraid not. Wait a minute..." Coby said, his voice drifting off at the end. This young man's face looked too familiar, as he made the realization his eyes widened and his jaw nearly dropped. Memories of the war that happened so many years ago flooded into his mind. "You look just like him..." he whispered. I hope it's ok that Coby recognized that.He was the spitting image of Portgas D Ace. Not only that, but it was a face he recognized by too many wanted posters. He took the coat from his shoulders and looked Tetsuo squarely in the eyes. "I'm going to need you to come with me, but I can tell that is not going to happen easily." he said. ~~~ "Yeah, I am," Kyoden said, hiding his surprise. "Jarret, you're letting her join?" he asked, looking at the pirate. "That's captain to you, and I am. She's going to pay for her damages by workin' around here," he answered, giving Kyoden a scolding look. Sorry for the poof!]]

Shotaro's face had paled at her first response, but turned light pink when she started laughing. "Oh, right." He picked up Affy with a grunt and found a place to grab onto the ship. "I really hope we can get out of here fast enough."
~~~
Tetsuo grinned widely when Coby finally connected the dots. "You are one hundred percent correct, my good friend." He took his hat off, placing it on his chest and bowing before dropping it back on top of his head. "The son of Ace has arrived to gaze upon this landmark!" He gestured to the stage.
~~~
Kaori giggled a little at their small quarrel. "You have to be stuck with me now, but don't worry, I'll make sure I bother you." She winked at him teasingly before giving the captain a thumbs up.

Scarlet laughed again, grabbing onto a board and starting to pull herself up, grabbing onto a porthole window next. "Me too, the vine thing that girl's standing on seems like it can move pretty fast..." she grunted, slowly making her way up the side of the ship.
~~~
Gasps and murmurs rose from the passersby within earshot, and suddenly all the attention was on Tetsuo and Coby. Calli's attention was also fixed on them, her eyes sparkling, this was the first time seeing her father on the job after all. She knew of the name Ace, and knew he was an important pirate, but that was all before she was born and had only heard a few stories about him from her father.
Coby motioned to the other marines with him but kept his attention on Tetsuo. "Get the townspeople somewhere safe, it will be bad if they accidentally get caught up in this," he said quietly. "I hope it has lived up to your expectations, son of Ace. I am sorry to say this, but my job requires me to bring you in." He took a deep breath to clear any conflicting feelings away before rushing at Tetsuo.
~~~
"Great. Wonderful," Kyoden muttered, shaking his head. "Well, at least I'm not the bottom rung of the ladder anymore," he added with a small smirk, crossing his arms.
Jarret just laughed, clapping Kyoden on the back. "Boy, go show 'er the ropes while I speak with the shipwright here," he said.
"What? Fine."

Shotaro watches her go up onto the ship. He found a place to climb up from, hooking his fingers to the window and pulling himself up. Without really caring, he threw the clone onto the ship so he didn't have extra weight to carry. After a few more minutes of climbing and estimating where to grab hold, he got onto the ship and sank to the ground. "Thank goodness!"
~~
The gasps and shock expressions from the people made this more entertaining. "You're absolutely right," he said before turning and running up the side of the store. Half way up, his legs kicked off and did a back flip, landing right behind the captain. He threw a punch right between Coby's shoulder blades, hoping to do some damage.
~~
Kaori clasped her hands together with excitement. Her very first crew to work with! It felt just like her father's crew except they respected Luffy a little bit more, only a little though. "What's first?" She asked.

Sauri switched the vines direction, heading towards Scarlet's ship. She aimed her spear straight at Scarlet's back, seeing as she was the one who was able to steer the boat. "I'm sorry it had to be this way." She whispered before sending the spear soaring, straight towards Scarlet.
Right before it hit the back of her collarbone though, it was stopped by The Clone, who grabbed it out of mid air. His eyes were dark as he gripped the weapon tight and turned to look at their attacker. "Leave. Them. Alone!" He yelled as he hurled the spear straight at Sauri.
Sauri barely had time to switch the direction of the vines upwards, the spear shooting straight through the middle of it and ripping off a piece of it. Sauri flew up into the air and was sent diving towards the ocean. She quickly shot out a smaller vine out and it wrapped around the mast of Scarlets ship, swinging her around the boat. She released her hold on it and landed on the broken vine that hung in mid air. Her heart was beating rapidly, she didn't expect that at all. But she couldn't let it stop her from completing her mission. The state her bridge was in, she wouldnt be able to build on it anymore, but she could still halt the ship from here. She flipped her hand and made three rose thorn shurikens, hurling them at the three of them.

Scarlet whirled around hearing the commotion going on behind her after stepping onto the deck of the ship. "We're not in the clear just yet, thorns incoming!" she yelled, seeing the thorns flying closer every second. After deciding she wasn't good at hitting things in the air like that, she jumped and rolled behind the mast.
~~~
Calli grabbed Samantha by the shoulder and pulled her behind the display that was serving as her hiding spot. As she watched Tetsuo go after her father she slapped her hands over her mouth to keep herself from calling out.
Coby's eyes followed the pirate's movements and flicked to the side as his head turned to look behind him. His feet changed position first, his upper body then spinning around to match. A quick "Rankyaku!" escaped his lips before throwing his arm at the pirate, sending out a small compressed air blade (only after making sure there were no civilians behind him of course).
~~~
"Just a moment," Kyoden said to Kaori before looking back over his shoulder at the captain. "Oi Jarret, the blond one wants to join us too. He needs a better ride than a rowboat," he called over, pointing at Kasopp.
"Boy, what did I just finish telling ye?" the older man grumbled before turning around and looking at Kasopp. "SO? I'll ask you the same thing as the little lady over there. What can you do?"
"I'll call you captain when you make me first mate," Kyoden said with a plastic grin. He turned back to Kaori. "So, everything interesting is below deck. This way." he said, heading down a narrow stairway.
