Action Fisherman's Horizon -Smoke on the Water-

[It had been only a few days since Shelke had entered this world. She had went to a few classes and tried to talk to others. It seems that none of the students share her apprehension. Of course, they had not been a part of Deepground. Shelke hates the Garden already. The sudden kidnapping, the recruiting and all the unfamiliar faces, it all reminds her of that forsaken place of evil, Deepground. That's the last thing she wants to think about. Back had home she had been moving on,in this place her mind goes in circles.

She needed to escape the Garden. Glad that they had stopped in Fisherman's Horizon, Shelke had nearly ran out into the town. Now, as noon shoppers spill into the town she sits near the water's edge. The quiet suits her, and she is enjoying it. Her stuffy school-issued shoes and socks are stripped and laying carelessly on the ground. She sits on a rock with her feet hanging off into the water.

Shelke is silently contemplating her escape, when a strange sensation sweeps through her. Her slight figure is humming for a second, then it dissipates, leaving Shelke gasping. She stands up quickly. But before the girl can turn to leave, the feeling shakes her again. With a small gasp of surprise, she watches as her small arms fade into wispy clouds of blue gas than back to normal.]

Oh...

[The reason why no one in class shared her views were because the ones who did were the ones who didn't show up to class at all. Marvelous, although he did tend to go into the Garden because the cafeteria was more than available, for the most part stayed in the town and had gotten into the habit of skipping rocks due to the fact that there was absolutely nothing worth doing in this place. Pirate he may be but, without a ship, he wasn't going to raid the town....even with the boat, raiding was bad form.

When the small girl arrived to the water's edge, he paid no mind to her at first until he heard the surprised noise and he looked over.]

Should be careful. The locals who are afraid of different people aren't opposed to attack.

[Picking up another flat stone, he threw it out over the water, watching it skip over the waves with a small smirk on his lips.]

Or so I've heard.

[She doesn't hesitate to get her composure back. Her usual emotionless expression replaces her surprised one.]

I do not fear attacks from the likes of these people. [She looks almost proud] But they should fear me. [ Naughty Shelke. Already back to her old ways.]

[Judging by how she looked, she wasn't very threatening but, at the same time, Marvelous could see that she wasn't necessarily bluffing.

Still, he just kept the smirk on his face.]

Think you can take on everyone who gives you a hard time?

[ She doesn't even blink. Her answer is instantaneous]

Yes. Everyone. [Though she still was shaken by watching her body turn into smoke...]

[Well, she was confident. Or thick headed. Nonetheless, Marvelous approved, even if it's just from some kid.]

So that power of yours to disappear. It'll let you beat everyone? [Because she sounded surprised when it happened and that wasn't the reaction of someone who was confident in her strength.]

[ She looks away]

I don't need special powers to do what I need.

[But what this man had seen had not been true disappearing. She had reduced to vapors. Perhaps this place really was doing experiments on the kidnapped. She wanted to demonstrate why she was called "The Transparent", but she couldn't call her chameleon-like ability forward. There seemed to a block.]

[Well, that part he could agree with to an extent. Marvelous had an array of powers thanks to the ranger keys in his possession but, he didn't use them unless necessary.

But she seemed more ashamed of that power. He wasn't even aware that wasn't her usual ability. And now he was curious as to why. Pulling out his sword, he smirked at her.]

Show me what you can do then.

[ There is a pause as the girl takes in the challenge. What Shelke takes out of the holsters on her hips looks like some sort of short mechanical nunchaku.]

As you wish.

[In an instant, the mechanical contraptions in her hands spark to life with crackling electricity. She meets the man's eyes, her own bright with sparks.]

[There's a grin on his face as she pulls out her weapons and quickly, he charges in, swinging his sword at her.

Just to see if she would be any sort of a challenge for him.]

[ The charge only slightly surprises her. She is pleased to see her speed hasn't been effected like everything else. With her EM Sabers held in front of her, Shelke runs forward, seeming to slide along the ground.]

[Marvelous notes her own speed but kept going with an attack. She may be faster than he was but, he had some doubts that she has the brute strength that he did.

So once he got close, he raised his sword to swing and, with his free hand, quickly pulled out his gun and fired it.]

[The bullet from the gun grazes her right arm. She ignores it, likely not even knowing it is there. Adrenaline does some interesting things. Seeing him raise his arm to swing, she throws on EM saber up to block the incoming blow.]

[As she blocks the swing, Marvelous just kept pushing down, using his strength in his arm to keep the blade in place.]

You're not bad for some military dog.

I am nobody's dog!

[Every thought in her brain is pointing to her best strategy. Seeming to disappear for a second she dashes back. Her arm aches from holding him back. ]

[As she vanished, with the lack of resistance, Marvelous stumbled forward, tripping slightly but easily regaining balance. He didn't even see her move and that interested him.]

The cadet uniform says otherwise.

A uniform is sometimes as much a disguise as anything. [Wow. That sure sounds a little too profound to be coming out of what appears to be a ten year old's mouth]

In all honesty, my views of this school are less than what these clothes portray.

Then why are you a part of it if you don't have high views of the place? [Although the fact that she doesn't like it did make her in better regards in his opinion. Simply because he ditched the place all together and continued with his life of piracy.]

Where else would I go? I am a nineteen year old girl in a strange world.

[There is a flash of mischief in her eyes]

Besides, how else do I find information better than be in the enemy's midst?

So live off their dime and find ways to beat them. I like how you think.

[With that said, no point in fighting really so he put away his gun and dropped his arm holding his sword.]

Tell me everything you know about the Garden. Who's in charge, any plans they have to let us go back to our worlds and the blueprints of the place itself. If you keep doing that for me, once I get a ship, you can leave there and join my crew.

Being part of your crew sounds more appealing than twiddling my thumbs here.

I'll find out what I can. From what I know, the Headmaster is called Cid. They speak of his kindness.

A kind headmaster. [Sure, if he was the only one who gave them a place to live when no one else would, even with being forced into military, he must seem like a saint.]

Keep looking in to any information about the Time Compression or the workings of the place itself. It'll take some time to get a ship together but, just know that if you leave to join me, you'd be working under me as a pirate with everyone against you. You up for that?

I will do as you request.

[Marvelous grins. Doesn't care about repercussions, wanted to escape and was willing to find out information during her stay until he got a ship together. Not bad.

He held out his hand to her.]

Good to have you aboard.
