Not to be mistaken [Ruki && Open]
« Thread Started on Jan 3, 2008, 8:01am »

_{She had not appeared as a little teenager this time. She was really tired of being mistaken as one of the crew. So, she had dressed as the exact opposite of all the pirates. She was a tall, slender woman that day, dressed in robes of fine silk, a delicate pink in color. Her eyes were a deep shade of gray, rimmed by a line of black that made them all the most striking. Changing her appearance amused her so much, and she was able to do it without using her power much, so she amused her childish temper by doing it a lot. She even saw to details, and she had got black wavy hair and thick eyelashes that lined her eyes temptingly.

Her cheeks were red. Even transporting was taking power nowadays. She didn't know what had happened to her, but she knew it was not good. Something was wrong, and she had to solve it, and solve it fast. And of course, all the problems came when she had a war looming up on the horizon. She wished she had been one of those mystics who could change the flux of time. But she was not. Besides, her power was majestic, when enleashed to it's whole. She didn't even know if she could still unleash it that way.

400 years had made her rusty. 400 hundred years since no one had attacked her. 400 years of peace and homage. Dear dear. She had probably become lazy. Suddenly, she heard a light step coming down the corridor, and she turned in that direction. The dress was restraining. Perhaps she should have chosen some other attire.}

Ruki sighed audibly, The crew was drunk-acting like jerks as always, actually their jerkiness was not so bad, But when it crossed the line from acting tipsy to be so drunk they mistaken their own captain for some ****able girl the party was OVER, Not that they ever actually listened to him, unless they where total clear and had gotten into their way to small brains that he was their leader and that was not without a reason. with anyone else of the pirates as the leader they would crash into the closest island and die because they where to stupid to swim into land..

He sighed once more, his feet's tapping lightly against the wooden stairs as he untied his long currently raven hair. When he reached the door he realized there was someone standing at the deck, A female.. and she looked rich. Ruki shacked his head, that was impossible, no one could enter the ship from nowhere.. wait.. wasn't it a folklore about something like that? "weeh.. Overload"... his mind screamed of the hard try to think and then he gave, No matter how much he wanted to reject it he couldn't change the fact he was tired and if not alittle tipsy from the wine (yes, he did drink wine).

Ruki opened the door and walked out on the deck, heading towards the unexpected guest. "Why hello, if i knew i where expecting guests i would have cleaned here, ohh well.. if i can live in this mess than so can you.. for however long you plan to say.. right Mystic?""Yaaay.. Overload finished" he whined inwardly, his brain hadn't failed him, It worked, it worked.. only alittle slower because of the alcohol in his system.

(sorry for the state of this post.. I'm tired and my brain, much like my characters, don't work properly right now)

Dianora looked disapprovingly as a tipsy young man walked across the ship, towards her. She had seen many lives destroyed by that intoxicating liquid. And especially those of pirates. In fact, of all sea faring men. Somehow the liquid poison held a special allure for those who had a profession in the sea. She shook her head. She had heard the newest leader of the pirates was a little smarter than the rest. This was probably him. But no man could resist such addictions. It seemed only womens, or rather Mystics, who could escape them completely. But then, the Mystics could do a lot that other people couldn't. And of course there were perils to that, too. It was going to happen.

It was hot. Her eyes flashed a tepid white, and a soft wind started blowing. She looked at the man in front of her with a sour look on the beautiful face she had conjured, and those gray eyes looked at the man in front of her, taking him in. They became stern and imposing, but by the time he finished speaking, they had become soft again. She did not have the capacity to look imposing at all. It was such a shame. She was a mystic, after all. And she looked like a baby, and felt like a baby. Well, he knew what she was. She changed back into her normal form, as quick as a blink of the eye, again into the 16 year old girl, back into the white poncho and jeans that she knew so well. Back into that soft brown eyed look and gentle brown hair.

"Perhaps it would have better if you had," she said in her soft voice, almost childishly teasing. "Oh yes, I am a Mystic." She yawned, and smiled, "Maybe I shall decide to stay here a while. Then again, maybe I'll leave after inspecting the ship. What concern is it of yours? I am Mystic. I bow to no law, except my own."

The young boy leaned against the rail of the ship, seemingly unaffected by the large waves hitting the boat for and backwards like a tennis ball, a small chuckle was heard-
"Ohh but it is, I'm the captain of this ship, everything happening here is of my concern weather you like it or not. You might be a mystic, you might have the ability to kill me as easily as i kill a fly, But i don't fear you, nor death or suffering. If i did i would never have boarded a pirate ship, far less taken the control of it."
he stopped before thinking, Did pirates have any laws? not that he had heard about, and it really would be a shame if no one told their captain of the rules so he just assumed there existed none.

He sighed slightly, being 'in charge' was not the easiest thing, well of course it wasn't.. not when you had a crew of barbarian idiots who always looked for a reason to celebrate, well..at least you couldn't say the pirates life was a depressing life, it just became alittle to much for the young boy. As the captain he was expected to do several things, including to be able to drinking wine without vomiting it up after on, this was a ability he had yet to learn as he was to young to enjoy or at all like the 'pleasure' of alcohol, But nonetheless he tried because he was raised up never to say he disliked something before he tried. witch also was the reason why he right now wondered why his mind was working at least 10times slower than normal.

without really thinking further about it he noticed the girl..well this form of the mystic seemed to be around his age, weirdly enough.
"You'll probably be mad about this, but isn't it kinda cruel to be that old and still use the look of a teenager? wonder how you'd look like if you had a 400 year old body.." He laughed over a random picture of a box of ashes or a half dead mummy or something, not that he really believed she would end up like that, But it was the Imagination of a child, After all, if you stripped him of his captain and pirate tittle that was all he was: a child.

Her lips parted into a smile, and her eyes smiled with it, and there was something honest and sweet about that innocent sixteen year old face. It hid the face of a malicious woman, who had killed many, and killed them brutally, so brutally that some of these stories might make this hardered pirate blanch. But she did not care to recount them. She had done as she could, and had to, under the circumstances. If she had been harsh, it had been neccesary. And perhaps the act of desperation in those killings made her face less malicious, made it seem gentler, and softer. It could be nothing else, because mystic powers could change the color, shape and size of those eyes, but she could change the truth that is visible in all eyes. They were the window to the soul.

She was listening, trying to look uniterested, remarking when he finished, "And what *yawn* makes you think I care?" She paused for effect, and muttered, "I'm not interested. Sure I can kill you in a flash, and you don't care...but where would that get any of us. I consider living a far worse punishment, frankly. There's a war coming up, young man. It's not advisable to not care about your life in such situations." She looked down, and then up again. "I've lived 433 years. I've witnessed and participated in 347 wars here on Sea of Shadows, give or take a few. I think it may be safe to take my advice, considering your situation."

"I come to warn you. Heed my words. Attack the mystics, or in any way show some sort of disrespect or treachery against us, and you will regret it. Beyond that I really do not care. Do what you wish. Die, kill yourself, torture each other, betray each other, loot, become friends, search for treasure, whatever. It will provide some entertainment for us, perhaps. But one foot on the island...and you can be sure of the consequences. When they are finished, not one of you shall remain."

She heard his next question, and she smiled aimably. She doubted if any mystic in the history of the world had ever been asked such an audacious question, but to give credit to the boy, he was half-drunk, and she looked more like a sixteen year old. And she felt like a ten your old. She had giggled helplessly for the first moment after he had asked his question. Then she felt compelled to answer. "I don't think anyone has ever asked a mystic such a question. But I am absoulutely sure that I will be the first mystic to answer such a question. I like being young, going back my more carefree days. I have been in this form so long that I have grown comfortable in it. Actually..." she smiled lazily, "I don't remember what I looked like, so many years ago. Something like this, I think." She changed into a pale young girl with purple eyes and a funny looking nose. She then changed back, and grimaced. "Perhaps not exactly like that. But, mystics don't age. Age is nothing for us. If I remained in my original form, I would still look like the six year old I was when I discovered my ability. But I prefer this form."
