Motz provided refreshments lovingly to the exotic women, and carefully to the other two, whilst the guys were practically tossing their drinks. Davy took a sip and continued to train himself against Jade who continued to have a lovely mood since the crew decided to head to Babylon island.
Jade: Your Haki has improved immensely... In such a short amount of time too.
Davy: I wouldn't call fighting at max power for several hours straight, "short".
Tiga: You fought a bubblegum lady and got this tough? Awww... I wish I got to fight them too!
Hopping onto Davy's shoulders, Tiga swinged her legs.
Tiga: Would have gone, Nya, nya! And could have gotten so much clout for beating up bubblegum!
Victor: You didn't think that through at all....
Motz: Shut it it's brilliant.
Tiga: Yeah, shut up!
Jade: Either way... I'm impressed. You clearly are your father's son.
Davy: Being some dudes son has nothing to do with it! This is purely me!
Shin: And are you going to be purely enough to take everything on Babylon?
Davy: Jade said we'd have help.
Jade: Right. We'll meet up with them on a nearby archipelago to Babylon. A nice resort where you all can get some rest before the war.
Ruby: Whoa, wouldn't it be obvious that we'll be coming to attack.
Jade: Not if we make it obvious.
Jade: The moment has been prepared for. Worry only about the part you'll play.
Davy: Yeah. Let's just worry about getting Az back. And letting Kai meet his maker...
Motz: Your Haki might have improved, but don't underestimate Kai, he'll already have improved since last time.
Motz: That sea stone coating will be a problem for you... So maybe I should fight him.
Davy: I ain't afraid of some nerd... With the Advanced versions of Haki in my arsenal.
Davy: I can now develope level 4.
Victor: Level 4?
Shin: Yeah, isn't tornados not enough? Where would you even go next?
Davy: I'll get there once I achieve an RPM of a million at least.
(BRRRRRRRRRR)
Davy: And after my fight with Lu-Lu, I've shifted into High Gear!
(Opening Theme)
Arriving at an archipelago of islands, the Wanted Dead crew drifted into port at the center island where they noticed two familiar ships belonging to the other two Oncoming Storms.
Davy:?
Jade:(smiles)
Everyone but Jade left the ship, which along with the other two vessels began to sink into the water. Jade waved her pirate upstarts goodbye.
Jade: Go on, relax. We'll meet up at the end of the week.
(Splooosh)
Victor: She's getting on my nerves with her attitude.
Davy: It's clear as day... All this has nothing to do with Azriel. I gotta find Leo and Scales.
Davy: Ughh... What a pain. You guys go ahead and do whatever you gotta before we head to Babylon.
Davy: I've gotta find my fellow Storms.
Separating from the group, Davy heads out in search for Leo and Scales.
Tiga: I wonder if anyone here wants to spar!
Ruby: Why don't we check the shops fitst?
Tiga:(taps fingers) I dunno... I feel kinda dirty paying for a fight...
Ruby: I meant to shop for supplies!
Metana: Ooh! Let me come!
Ruby: Sure we'll make it a girls night.
Metana:(giggles)
Motz: Allow me to accompany you-
Ruby: No.
Motz: Urk!!?
Metana: Didn't you hear, it's a girls night out.
Tiga: You ain't a lady, so scram! Nya-haha!
The ladies leave Motz on his knees slamming the ground with his fist.
Motz: Damn you Kai! Damn you straight to hell! Why was that moss for brains born a lady whilst I was made an lame man!?
Motz: It's not fair!
Victor:(pulls out Zody) I can give you the necessary hole to join them.
Motz: Go throw a bullseye.
Shin: Knock it off you two! I'm about to put you to work!
Motz/Victor:(tilts head)
With bags under his eyes, Shin determination shined through.
Shin: Come with me, and I'll show you how we're going to get Azriel back!
Having asked around, Davy found the workers here had loose lips and would tell him whatever he desired.
Told where Scales room was, he quickly crossed islands via an underwater bridge.
Night was upon the archipelago, once Davy arrived in the small village where every guest stayed. Knocking on the door of where Scales was supposed to be, Davy J heard light foot steps.
The door slid open, not to reveal Scales, but one of his crew mates in a loose bathrobe.
Gin: Did you forget the room key~?
Gin:!?!
Davy:....
Davy: He's not here, is he?
Gin quickly closes her robe and tighten it.
Gin:(clears throat)....
Gin:(monotone voice) D-Davy J. I assume you're looking for my captain.
Davy: Just going to play it off like you're not secretly a lovey dovey fish lady?
Gin: I don't know what you're talking about. I was here...to..uhm...
Gin: Tell my captain I've finished my task.
Davy: I don't really care about that. Scales ain't here, then where is he?
Gin:.... Buying... An assortment of things.
Davy; Ah... Let me guess, soy sauce?
Gin: Yes...
Davy: Makes sense, goes great with fish.
Gin:(blushing)!?!!
Jones walks off, to continue his search for Scales and Leo.
Through the echoes of arguing, Davy discovered both the Oncoming Storms close to throwing hands. Davy quickly and casual entered their conversation.
Davy: Yo, ho, ho.
Scales/Leo:?
Scales: Heh, if it isn't the man wanted nothing but Dead.
Leo:(yawn)
Leo: You believe something is going on with the Helllords now?
Davy: Put a sock in it. Yeah, you had a point. It's time we talked about what's about to go down.
Scales: Can we save it for tomorrow?
Davy: Have your sushi later, I need as much time as I can get to develop something of mine...
Davy: So let's get this done here and now.
Leo: Agreed.
Scales:(shrugs)
Scales: Then we should probably find some place private. Wouldn't want any eavesdroppers.
They each glances at a rat holding a tiny newspaper, each wore a different hat and tiny outfit.
Davy:(mumbles) Dapper little rats...
