16:00, G-7, New world, Grand line.
It was a quiet afternoon, warm, but with a nice breeze that kept the Marines comfortable during work hours. Speaking of which, someone seems to be skipping it as we speak, someone by the name of Rune.
Alone was Rune, on his bed, sleeping as if it was night. A knock on the door didn't faze the sleeping man, but the louder slam of the door however did.
"ALFIRE RUNE, IT IS 16:00, AND YOU THINK IT'S SLEEP TIME?" Says an older man, gray hair and a sharp mustache. Known to G-7 as Varry D. Tino.
The man, named Rune rubs his forehead and yawns as Tino Glares at him. "Old man, sleep time is when my body doesn't want to work, so buzz off." He grabs a blanket and pulls it over himself, before it gets taken by Tino...and tossed out the window.
"Rune, you are a captain of the marines, you need to set an example for all our newcomers." Tino pulls Rune up and on his feet, forcing the man to wake up fully. "Whatever old man, Should be 4:00, Right?"
Tino with a vine showing on his forehead forces himself to say in as calm as he can. "First of all, we use Military time, so say 16:00, and two, you got lots of work ahead of you, SO….so go and finish it before I burst a vain."
Rune signs and waves off Tino. "Don't know what you're worried about, I always complete it."
And with that, Tino leaves, letting Rune sit down at his desk. He looks at the desk, three pens, two blue, one black, all with teeth marks on the ends of them. Next to them was a mirror, silver and polished, with a mark of his family on the back of it.
He picks it up to look at himself. Long face, large eyebrows, bags that never go away no matter the amount of sleep had, and choppy hair. He sighs. "The only thing attractive about me is my body, but the face ruins it. Damn." He places the Mirror down and looks at the stack of paper on the left side of the desk.
Fifty sheets huh. "Well, this is going to be easier than I thought." and with that he went to work, taking a sheet, reading it twice and writing down basic stuff about the lower ranking Marines.
"Huh, Tim seems to be be caught taking some rations from the storage, but seeing as he's been trying hard for that promotion, he deserves it."
18:00, G-7, New world, Grand line.
Two hours later, he places the sheets back where he found them and pushed a button on the wall, signaling that he finished. With a glance at the Clock on the wall, he noticed it was around 6:00. "Well, I might as well get some training done before bed." He stood up put on his Official jacket, not putting his hand in the sleeves because who does that? And walks out of the room.
As he walks the hallway, the sun still in the sky, if causing a small orange among the yellow. He frowns, he's more of a sunrise person then a sunset, even if he sleeps though both. He looks back to the hallway to see a lower rank marine, Ensign it seems, looking at a newspaper, recent if he had to guess. He asks a not too quiet to scare him and not too loud to scare him voice, "Hey Ensign, what seems to be the problem?"
The man blinks before looking at me, holding his hand into a salute. "Sir, I've gotten the Newspaper, seems that the Strawhat pirates along with the former Warlord Law have beaten the also former Warlord, Donflamingo." He returns his hand to his side to give me the newspaper.
"At ease kid, no need to be formal to me, but if what you say is true…" He looks over the newspaper, blinks, reads it again, and gives it back to the Ensign "Oh boy, those Strawhats sure know how to sell newspapers." He smirks before telling the Ensign. "Thanks for the report, you get a pass from any cleaning job around the base, just say Rune said so."
The Ensign blinks in surprise before bowing. "Thank you si- uh Thank you Rune, you're the best!" He sprints off, seemingly happy. He Waves the guy goodbye before his face turns into a frown. 'Great, first Marineford war, than an Alliance with the heart Pirates, now this?' He sighs before walking back to where he was heading, the captain training yard.
18:10, G-7, New world, Grand line.
Ten minutes later He reaches the yard, with one of the many keys in his pocket, he opens the door and walks in. The place is empty, seems like the other captains trained earlier, which is fine with him, training alone is peaceful, training with others is a chore. He takes off the Jacket on a hook and stands in a middle of a circle, seemingly a target.
He closes his eyes, waiting for the perfect time, 'most others would just dodge, which is fine, but I…" dozens of arrows fly, he moves and with a small chop, each arrow gets destroyed, more and more come, but he easily moves faster along with it and soon it stops. He doesn't move for a second, before bending back and kicks the the spear sent from behind him."...Prefer a challenge' He opens his eyes, seeing arrows broken and the spear, torn in half by his foot. "Wow, Steel? Seems that this training is getting upgraded."
"It has to if it has to deal with your dumb strength Rune." Says a voice from the door. He Looks and of all people, it has to be her, it couldn't be someone he wanted to talk to. He glares and looks at the speaker of the voice. "Hello, Sister."
She looks back with half closed eyes, ignoring the disdain in his voice. "How's my little brother doing, Do you think you can fight pirates in that shape?" He rolls his eyes "You were born a minute before me, don't think that makes you 'Wiser'." He turns to a training dummy and starts with basics, hoping she'll go away, knowing that she won't. She walks closer, not wearing her jacket, she probably forced it on some lower rank to clean it for her. "Rune, as your higher ranking officer, I would like you to call me by my title." She says in a mocking tone.
He Glares at her, before sighing, turning around and and salute. "Yes, Commodore Lissa, what do you want of me?" His sister smirks harder than before, having a fun time with this. "Well, you see, we got information on something about you, something you seem to have forgotten to tell above."
He sweats, 'Oh no, did they found out about that? No, there's no way that they could, I slept through all the swimming training and finished it with the written tests, and because I do paperwork, I can't have been seen on a boat. Damn damn DAMN.' He starts to turn pink.
She looks down at her pad saying in the way she knows will irritate him, "Alfire Rune, you are found to have ate a Devil Fruit, more so this fruit was on the lookout list by the World Government. Have you or Have you not ate the Blood Blood fruit?"
