Vivi Nefertari princess of Alabasta a desert kingdom in the grand line sat on her father's lap in the throne room of the royal palace located in the capital city Alubarna the hall filled with the guards, while he told her of the need to listen to the people and not put herself above them as they will be her family when she becomes queen. Vivi is a thirteen year old girl with blue hair done up into a ponytail and large almond coloured eyes, wearing a sleeveless white gown a little to longer for her as it seems to be tied up at the back yet still covers all her legs only showing her sandals. she nods happily as she looks at her father king Cobra and then goes back to practising listening to requests of the guards, as they make up problems for her to fix that will help her in the future. Cobra is a man of average height starting to show wrinkles although most seem to be from smiling he also has long curly black hair with a tied off beard, he wears a green yellow trimmed robe with a orange sash keeping it closed. After a while a strange problem was raised about their being too many birds "dirtying" the statues. Once the princess heard bird she turned and started looking straight at Pell with the eyes only someone not getting the intended meaning could pull off, the princess said in a stern child like voice " Pell when you finish doing whatever you was doing clean up afterwards, people have worked hard to make the statues you shouldn't be making them dirty" she nodded to herself proud of being able to be stern with her friend. The throne room fell silent Vivi looked around seeing red faces then her dad started shaking thinking she was wrong she was about to apologize but was stop when the throne room burst out into laughter while Pell replied in a strained voice " of course princess I will make sure to ... clean up after myself from now on" face twitching the whole time as the guards laughed harder hearing his reply, until he promised to train them into the ground until the birds no longer bothered them, the threat made clear with a glare reinforced with the eyes only a bird of prey has any right to have thanks to the devil fruit that made him a falcon-man.
The king was about ready to call it a day when in walked a man roughly 6'7 in height with fangs of blood red hair poking out of a bandanna between a pair of cold, dull and jaded sapphires 'it's like he has lived for far too long, a pair of eyes like that didn't belong on a such a young face' thought Cobra. The roughly twenty year old's face looked gentle, delicate like a blink or a twitch of the lips would shatter it thin eyebrows a straight and defined nose naturally narrow eyes thin lips a face only marred by three scares running parallel on each tanned cheek. He was shrouded from the neck down in a black suit red tie combo that stretched at the arms slightly with a downed hood stitched in to the back, thin waist and the colour making him look thinner than he was with a pair of knuckle plated fingerless gloves, very strange cloths for a person travelling the desert. Once the shock of a person just walking into the palace pass did the king remember that there were guards posted outside the door but no one heard the noise of a fight 'this man is strong or stealthy' thought Pell also noticing the lack of noise from the area he came from.
Once the man was in the centre of the room he bowed with a brief flicker of respect and warmth in his eyes at Cobra and Vivi respectively "what can i do for you stranger, a drink perhaps with clothes like yours you must have been parched out in the sun" said the king with false calm as he looked at the dangerous man in front of him the only reason he didn't order the guards to attack was the brief flicker he saw in those eyes. The man raised back up looking at the king with what could only be sympathy " i wouldn't waste a limited resource so freely Cobra but i have something that could help with that recent problem " said the man sending the message he knew something about the draught that has come about since a year ago. the king frowns 'the way he worded it made it seem like this draught will not end soon', that is not a laughing matter to a person from the desert. sending a message to Pell to take Vivi outside to play, he turns back to the stranger with a serious face and asks a question he should of asked first " who are you stranger?" looking him dead in the eyes waiting for the answer that he won't remember knowing no matter how many times he is told it in the years to come. The red head smirks an inside joke playing in his head as emotion now comes onto his face enhancing the amusement in his once dull eyes as a fox like grin grows out of the smirk and replies "Naruto Uzumaki got it memorized?"
