There was a dock full of ships that were next to the castle off shore. There were men in drag clothes working on ships top and bottom. A man named miroku, who was wearing a loose white shirt and wearing black pants and black boots. He looked like he was pointing out where the men should work on next.
"Ok men, Looks like it aint gonna work, bring the sails down!"
The men started sighing and grumbling as they took the enormous sails down.
"Yeah yeah stop whining ladies! All we gotta do is get the other sails and we're good!"
Then seconds later, the prince Inuyasha was walking over on the deck for the ships, and over near one which his friend Miroku was finishing up.
"So whats new on the docks?" said inuyasha.
Miroku looked up behind him, "Oh wassup Inuyasha? Nothing we FINALLY figured out why this ship wasnt working right." he pointed to the ship and kept looking at the sails that were being tied up by the crew.
Inuyasha looked at the sails. "Well?"
Miroku looked at him "Well what?"
Inuyasha was confused and asked "Whats wrong with it?"
Miroku was acting dumb. "Oh! the sails were too small. we have to order new ones. AGAIN. ugh."
"Ha! I told you the sails werent going to be the right size! Now, on a different subject, Im going to ask you if you want to go on a little boat ride with me..."
Miroku laughed. "You running away from suitors again?"
"NO." Inuyasha immediately said.
"Inuyasha, man i know you. Whenever you say 'little boat ride' you mean 'get me the hell out of here' and you know im the only one here who can manage sails right. face it, YOU CANT COMMIT! HA!"
"Oh shut up like you know me! whatever, ok, your right. its this... princess from a small town called Bakerton. I never even heard of it, but apparently, 'She can bake pies better than any other kingdom.' And she is OBSESSED with pie! I mean, she creeps the hell out of me! *in a girly voice* 'I want our wedding cake to be a pie! It should have blueberries and sugar and love!'. I mean, are my parents just playing with me now? the week before was a princess who had no personality, with her black hair, black clothes, and if i remember, BLACK EYES and she absolutely hated me. I just need to get out of here and on the sea. So can ya help me out here?"
Miroku was staring at the ground and then looked at him. "Im sorry what?"
Inuyasha growled. "I order you to take me out at sea NOW!"
Miroku "Ok ok sheesh you could have just asked."
"you gave me no choice, you never listen."
"Lighten up man, there will be a girl, and shes gonna steal your heart. Give it time man. And hey, she might be even interested in your boring ass stories!"
Inuyasha sighed. "I doubt it Miroku. Im beginning to think marraige is not for me EVER. There can never be someone just like me..."
Miroku laughed. "Ha, inuyasha, stop being so picky and be more open to the ladies. I mean we do got some hotties that hang out at the winery!"
"No thanks dude, I dont go out with whores. So lets take The Seahorse out and then..."
"-Woah there crazy dude! um... The Seahorse is a pretty big ship for a little boat ride"
"If you know me, I go overbaord ALL the time."
Miroku sighed. "Ok, but let me get a crew out here because... its a FUCKING HUGE SHIP."
"Alright alright do it! besides, its my ship, I built it, you remember."
"Well, duh! i was your co-architect! im not saying its a bad ship, but i would rather use it on special occasions. like, oh i dont know, your WEDDING?"
"WHAT WEDDING!" he growled
Miroku started laughing and turned around to start heading towards the crew, then turned back and said "Inuyasha, just shut up and for once ENJOY YOURSELF!" and then her turned around again heading and talking to the crew, who seemed excited to take the seahorse out.
Night time had finally come and the ship was out in the sea, and everyone was having a pretty good time. the ship was filled with lights, the crew had nothing to do and the sea seemed pretty calm, so miroku thought it be nice to have everyone let loose and have fun. the crew started to play their own music and drank liquir from barrels. miroku went up to inuyasha who was standing at the very front of the ship looking out to the dead calm blue sea.
"hey man your missing out on a pretty decent party down there"
"yeah, just not in the mood."
he went up and stared at inuyasha and started waving his hand in front of his calm expression
"You will give your inheritance to Miroku..."
He smacked his hand out of his face "Oh shut up! im just thinkin is all and i dont feel like getting drunk... we dont know if something will happen and we would have to rely on drunken sailors to get out of a situation."
"Lighten up inuyasha... its just a small party and we only have four barrels for thirteen men. we'll be fine."
they heard a man yelling "Hey everyone! i found a whole cabin of beer!" everyone cheered and yelled.
Inuyasha looked back at miroku and glared.
Miroku smiled awkwardly and said "Heh... heh... im sure they'll be responsible."
Inuyasha sighed "whatever... we always turn out ok anyways."
Miroku "so... ."
"what?"
"Im serious dude... why have you been acting so lame these past few weeks? I KNOW its not just because of the suitors..."
"IM NOT ACTING LAME!"
"Uh yeah, you are. What's going on with you? seriously?"
Inuyasha sighed and looked out at sea. "IF you must know... I really do want to find someone. A girl ya know? Or at least SOMETHING."
Miroku turned around "Well if you find something, like treasure, I call half. If its a person, then they're all yours." and went back down to the party.
"Whatever." then he felt something wet on his face. "Rain? nah it has the be ocean breeze." he decided to go back to the party, as strange darker clouds came over head.
