The Orleander

Okimi smiled, "I'd love some food" Okimi said and followed him down the stairs. It was dark as she walked down and she had to feel her way to the stairs. The stairs were lit up by laneterns obviously there so no one would trip and fall down the stairs hurting themselves. "Kaito are we going to have Pirate food?" She asked exidetly. She always wanted pirate food.

The Decimator

Tze thanked the musician as he walked out the door. He always enjoyed a nice sonata. Tze followed the sailor out the door, and proceeded to the bridge, where Chou was already waiting for him. The bridge fell quiet, and remained quiet. Tze looked around the small bridge, noting the silence. He has them trained nicely , though Tze as he walked to the front of the bridge and stood in front of the large viewing window.

“Lookout station, any close by contacts?, asked Tze, not showing any emotion towards this possible treacherous crew. “No surface contacts sir, the scopes are clear” , replied a lone man in the back of the bridge.

“Good. Navigation; what’s out current heading and destination” , asked Tze, making sure the navigator was doing his job. “Current heading is 096, and our current destination is the coast of the Earth Kingdom” , replied the Navigator as he glanced down at his map.

“Very good. Engine control, full power to both engines and maintain our current course” , ordered Tze, trying to get a feel for his... temporary crew. “Aye Aye sir” , responded the Chief of the boat. Within a few seconds, the ship jumped back, as the engines were throttled up to full

“Very good. Now it’s time for me to announce our orders” , started Tze, as he glared back around the bridge. “We are to proceed East to the coast of the Earth Kingdom in pursuit of a pirate ship suspected of containing contraband stolen from Fire Nation ports and private property of Fire Nation Nobles. Once we reach the coastline, we will divide our small fleet and search each of five known harbors. If we do find the pirate ship, we are not to engage until General Li arrives with the remainder of the armada” , informed Tze, maintaining his usually cold monotone voice. “Return to your posts. Lookout station, watch for any sign of the pirate ship” , added Tze as he walked through the bridge and out the door. He hated this with a passion. Tze wanted to get to the Earth Kingdom as quickly as possible.

The Orleander
Kaito raised a brow. "Um, sorry to burst your bubble Okimi but theres no such thing as Pirate Food. People think we eat barbaric food, but we eat food like everyone else does. Just a whole load of Rum more." He discovered that the kitchen was empty. There were seasonings, and everything needed to cook, but nothing to cook itself. "Um, Okimi remind me to stock up on food while we're in Gaoling. We're out, all we have is water and rum." He sulked as his stomach growled.

The Orleander

Okimi must have been in her own little world, and didn't hear him. He repeated himself, "We don't have any food. So we won't be able to eat until morning when we reach Gaoling." Kaito looked at the clock on the wall, it was midnight, and they weren't going to reach Gaoling until another eight hours or so. "It's okay though, only in a few hours." Kaito walked over and sat on the counter, he got a jug of rum and took a sip. "I love rum. It's not heavy enough to get you drunk quickly, and it's tastey." He gave Okimi a sheepish smile.

The Orleander

Okimi blushed. She wasn't paying attention as she often does. "Well when we get food can I make dinner once..." She said smiling. She followed Kaito over to the counter and watched him take out a jug of rum, "Oh... what is it?" Okimi said, "And what is drunk?" She said curiosly. She knew little... very little...

The Orleander

"Drunk is a light poisoning that you get from a type of drink called Alchohol. It goes away quickly sometimes, and rum is like the lightest kind of alchohol. Here take a swig." he put it in the simplist terms he could, and offered Okimi the jug. The syrup-like taste of the rum in his mouth.

Orleander

"No sake? Damn. Oh well, rum will do," Tao said, helping himself to some rum. He wasn't necessarily what you would call a drunkard, he had just happened to find sake and got himself drunk.

OOC: Well, I will be leaving soon, so this will be the last post for the Orleander in Fire Nation Waters. Then when I return....then when Raja returns, we will RP getting a few crew members in Gaoling.

The Orleander

The night went by quickly, and by the time the sun began to rise on the horizon, the Orleander was finished traversing the Mountain Current. The ship gently floated towards their first destination, Goaling. There they would search for a few people that seemed like material for their crew, stock up on food supplies, and such. As the full sun took it's place in the sky, the Orleander left Fire Nation Waters, heading for the docks.

~~The Orleander~~

Okimi had taken to curiousity to rum and even though it was the lightest form of alchol she had a little more then her thin body could hanle. Okimi spent the night talking away just gulping down the rum. She had passed out at the table and chair. She woke up early in the morning as dawns fire fingers rose from the east. Her headed pounded as she stared at the empty ktichen of the Orleander.

Okimie felt as if her stomach was coming was coming up and it might as well did. She threw up in the hallway outside the kitchen. Okimi fell over slighly, "Oh god" She said and walked back into the kitchen where she grabbed a towel and soaked it with water. Okimi whiped up her mess, she snuck up lightly to the top of the ship throwing the towel over the edge figuring they wouldn't want that back. She saw land coming over the horizen but the sun made her head feel as if it would burst.

Her small feet creaked softly on the stairs as she walked as light as she could down to the kitchen and throw up all the cabinets. She found one package of tea. Okimi smiled and made her self a cup of tea. She sat back down in the chair she had passed down in the night before. She took slow sips of the tea her hangover slowly fading away. Though she didn't know it had been it. After sitting in the dark and quiet she walked back to the top of the ship to find Kaito as she was feeling conciderbly better but as she came to the top of the stairs she saw they were docking in Gaoling.

Hanamaro sat in the chair for a while and then noticed that he wasn' heairing any snoring. That's weird, Kange always snores when she asleep. Maybe I should go check up to see if she is okay Hanamaro thought while getting up. He went over to the room and peeked inside and saw that Kange was awake. He walked over to her, sat down on the bed and then asked "is everything okay, or is something on your mind?"
