THE LEGEND CONTINUES

The pitiful ship rocked back and forth among the merciless waves of the sea. Two men peered at eachother in the cluttered Captains quarters, both hot and sweaty with their previous exursions. One of the men, a dark haired, dark eyed somewhat scruffed pirate leaned forward a bit, his gaze never leaving his current companion. Blood from a cut on his cheek trickled down his jawline, staining his neck and the rim of his white vest but he did not seem to care, nor did he seem to care about the uncomfortable ride on the wild waters.

His companion, with dark hair past his shoulders and gentle brown eyes returned his gaze, he seemed a bit disturbed as he watched the pirate, a frown tainting his handsome face, "You should take care of that...." he said softly, gently brushing his own scarred cheek with his fingers, indicating the pirates cut.

The pirate just peered back at him with a blank expression, his dark eyes showing anything but warmth in them, he tilted his head slightly, a common gesture of his, but one his companion was just learning. "It's nothing." Was the simple reply. His gaze turned hard but he said nothing more, the thought of his brother dying in his arms was still fresh in his mind, not to mention how his companion had attacked him. Kilik was his name, that's what his brother said. He wanted to go to the west. His brother had told him to take him there....... and of course he could not deny the dying man's last request.

Also HE would be there. The damned Demon that murdered his crew. For every life that bastard took he planned to take out of it's disgusting grey hide.

"I'm sorry" Kilik was saying, he had finally broke the gaze and peered at his hands that rested on his knees, "I wish I could have done more....."

"Don't" Maxi replied, still peering at him "What's done is done, no one ever got anywhere regretting the past."

Kilik looked up, returning his gaze "Then what do you plan to do now?"

"I will take you West" Maxi replied "As my brother promised you. But soon we will have to port and restock, maybe hire a new crew....."

"Will this be sufficient?" Kilik pulled a golden medallion out of his pocket and placed it on the table "One of the Demons dropped it. It should be enough for provisions."

Maxi looked at the object then slowly picked it up, rolling the disk between his fingers, a soft smile played upon his lips "This should do just fine."

*********************************************************************************

For almost a month the two traveled together. they had grown more used to eachother company and hired a complete new crew. Maxi was taking to them greatly, being the hearty pirate he was, Kilik however was a bit more withdrawn, only emerging from his quarters to train on deck or dine with the others. Occasionly Maxi would talk with him at night, but no matter how close they got, Kilik was silent about why he wanted to head West.

Maxi had tried to gain any information he could on the Demon that murdered his crew, only finding out that the beast's name was Asteroth and he had been attacking ships and villages all around the vicinity. Maxi continued the pursuit, which was ok with Kilik, seeing as it led them in the preferred direction.

One day Maxi found Kilik training on deck. Maxi watched him, arms crossed over his broad chest. Kilik didn't seem to notice he had a spectator till Maxi hailed him.

"Wanna spar?" Maxi asked with a grin, a faint sparkle in his eye

Kilik watched him a moment then gave a slight nod of his head. he ducked into a stance, gripping the Kali Yuga a bit away from his body. Maxi too ducked down, reaching behind him and with a flashy swing, revealed his nunchaku. The two peered at eachother silently a moment then all of a sudden broke into an attack.

Kilik swiftly swung down with the Kali Yuga, aiming for Maxi's legs but the pirate jumped up, swinging his nunchaku back and kicking out with his right foot, Kilik ducked down avoiding the kick and shoving his staff up to block the nunchaku that swung at his head. Kilik hopped back on his left foot to gain distance then shoved the Kali Yuga at Maxi's legs again, but again the pirate dodged the attack.

Maxi grunted and with a hai swung his nunchaku in a wide arc down towards the ground, it hit Kilik's shoulder and the man stumbled back, wincing slightly at the pain, regaining his stance. Maxi swung the nunchaku out, catching it on his foot and spinning it out at Kilik's body. the nunchaku hit Kilik's legs once and the other fighter drew back with another wince, but barly seemed scathed. He swung the Kali Yuga at Maxi again which he blocked, but instead of drawing back, Kilik swung it back at Maxi catching the pirate off guard and knocking him back. Now it was Maxi's turn to wince.

"Nice hit" Maxi smirked, but quickly swung his nunchaku in a wide arc at Kilik. Kilik quickly smacked the attack away with the Kali Yuga and turned falling on his back, Maxi blinked at the strange display wondering if Kilik slipped.

"ARRRRRRRRRRGH!" Kilik swung his legs, pushing eown with the Kali Yuga, flinging himself high into the air, he swung the staff up over his head as Maxi gapped in shock, Maxi barely missed the hit as Kilik came crashing down, the Kali Yuga smacked the deck, cracking one of the boards under Kilik's force

"Jesus! What the Hell was that?!" Maxi blinked still a bit amazed at such a move, but a grin caressed his lips.

"LAND HO!"

Maxi and Kilik looked up at the crows nest as the announcement was made. Maxi then grinned at Kilik. "Next Port. Time for some well deserved rest wont you say. Besides it looks like you could use a bit of fun. IF ya get my meaning"

Kilik blinked a faint sight of color in his cheeks, Maxi chuckled "Oh come on Kilik! This tight assed routine is not very settling for the rest of us...."

Kilik frowned "Maxi....."

"Look. We'll take port, stock up and forget our problems for one night ok? Trust me you need it."

Kilik just sighed but gave in. Maxi clapped him on the shoulder, seeming in high spirits as the ship moved into port. Kilik stood with him silently, a distant look in his brown eye.
