OKO
A group of men roared jumping down on the black haired figure. The steel cage shuddered from the unbalanced weight and the gambling onlookers, cheered. "Kill her!", "Kill that cursed bitch!"
The men laughed only to stop as the air grew cold. Then blood sprayed the air and bodies flew in every direction. A woman of nineteen stood, pushing her bangs back into her left eyes, the purple irises stared dead at the bleeding men. She wore a snug waist black shirt with a purple hood and elbow long purple sleeves. A pair of black denim shorts reaching mid thigh, a purple 'x' was on the back left pocket. A pair of black wedge heels a purple head band and black studs finished it off.
She frowned dusting her shoulder off absent mindedly as the under ground gambling room burst into outraged roars. She frowned as a man struggled to his feet and a knife was pulled from his belt. A hiss escaped her black colored lips and she jumped away several times to avoid the blade. The man continued slashing at her. Finally he swung down and the blade caught her exposed side. Crimson tacky liquid sprayed the metal cages floor.
She growled in anger and swung her foot up, her black wedge high heel caught his chin and it snapped back with a sickening snap. She spun lowering her foot and sighed walking to the cage door. The crowd was still shouting, "STUPID CURSED BITCH!" "JUST DIE ALREADY!" The bars opened with a swift kick and she dropped out of the cage thumbs in her front pockets. Landing in a low crouch she rose and walked for the main door. A man sitting behind a large metal desk slid the stack of beli nearly off the counter for her to snatch up and vanish.
The crimson gold beams of sunlight shinning across Mocha Island made her pause tucking the beli into her shirt and turn to the right walking off.
OKO
A small girl in bright crimson pigtails and dark green dress giggled chasing her ball through the near empty streets of the city, her black flats smacking the cobbled streets. She tripped suddenly at a rut and fell face first with a squeal. The grapefruit sized blue and yellow striped ball bouncing away.
She hurriedly stood and sobbing chased after it screaming for it to come back. The odd colored ball rolled down the street taunting her and was about to go into a gutter, if a black wedge heel with purple stitching didn't set itself on top of it. The girl stopped in surprise dirt and tears smudged on her face. The raven haired woman removed her foot and bent down scooping up the ball and lowered herself to the twelve year olds level holding it out. "This yours kiddo?" she asked softly, the girl nodded taking it and smiled "Thank you nee-sama Kala" she said.
The purple eyes woman's heart skipped a beat and she reached out with her purple sleeve and rubbed the dirt from the girls face. "Just be careful 'Kay kid?" she asked and stood. The girl nodded and a sudden shout rang out, a red haired woman ran up yanking her daughter away from the cursed female and glared at her.
"But mama…she"
"Stay away from my Annie you filthy scum!"
Kala flinched visibly and the small girl was pushed away, only four feet away Annie looked back seeing Kala's shadow faced she could feel her little heart ache and tearing away from her mother ran over and hugged the taller woman around the knees quickly. "THANK YOU" she shouted loud enough to get attention released Kala running off to her shocked mother, Leaving an equally shocked Kala behind.
OKO
A gothic pirate ship sat anchored to the docks, and its crew stood in front of a large wooden sign, with bold black words it said
Welcome to Mocha Island the sweetest place on the grand line!
Population: two million
Have your sweets and eat them too!
A boot rose up and kicked it to the ground, the boots owner? Eustass 'Captain' Kidd; and he did not look to happy about the island, but then again did he ever look happy? Or not a dangerous
The Kidd pirates chuckled walking down the large road, Several islanders hurried out of there way, A few men in black uniforms stood by the main cities arched gate, They glanced up then lowered their heads again as if in respect. They didn't care about some measly pirates they were waiting for the true meaning of their presence.
XX
The only bar worth stepping in was the 'white spirit' and the owner, he was crazy enough to let the 'cursed woman' Kala work there. He was blue eyed man with short cropped brown hair. And a strong built from once being a pirate; his name was Rowan, and he only allowed criminals in his bar.
Rowan looked up as Kala walked in; he grinned at her and was acknowledged with a slight nod. "Got a rush coming in tonight kitten, Pirate ship arrived" he stated. "You feel up to doing two jobs?" Kala nodded curtly and disappeared into the back for a moment. A locker's squeaky hinges sounded and something landed with a slight thump before it closed. Kala walked back into the main room as the two busty blond waitresses walked in, "Hi Rowan, Hiya Kala" they sang before entering the back room, The bar owner chuckled picking up a bottle and poured a shot of dark green alcohol into a shot glass. It was held up catching the fading sunbeams and smiled at Kala; who sat on a barstool.
She took it with slender fingers and held it with a strange look. Rowan paused pouring himself a shot. "What is it kitten?" he asked setting the bottle down after four more glasses were filled, The blondes and two men walked in from the back a brunette and man with red and orange dyed hair, they also picked up a glass.
The taller blond with sapphire eyes was Hana the shorter with green was Mia, both wore mid thigh long pleated black skirts and black and dark gray midriff tee's with the kanji for spirit in white.
The brunette man had black eyes and wore a muscled black tee with spirit kanji on the front, and baggy jeans with silver chain, this was Laurence. The other had soft gray eyes and wore a white beater and baggy black knee long shorts the kanji symbol was in black for him, he was Max.
Kala chuckled, her dark laugh raising the glass higher. "To beating the hell outta people" she suggested. "AYE" the shouted and the glasses were thrown back. The green liquor burned their throats and their hands came down.
OKO
Shot glasses slammed into the bar counter and Laurence turned, away from Max and picked up a grog glass. "Hup!" he called tossing it over her shoulder, the cool glass landed in Max's open hand and he instantly filled it, setting the full mug on a tray. "KALA YOU'RE UP!" Rowan shouted from his poker table. The 'cursed' woman stood and slid of the raised platform stage for the large pirate and criminal filled bar, Weaving her way through to snatch up the large round tray. "Thanks kiddo!" Max shouted focusing on filling glasses.
The round disk was raised above her head as she slipped through the ground, Mia and Hana were ducking through arms with smaller trays on the lower section of floor to get the orders in. Kala always got larger order since she was strong enough to carry the tray and she owed Rowan it.
The man had came to Mocha island when she was ten and immediately fell in love with the cursed child always wanting a daughter he opened his bar with his four friend Hana, Mia Max and Laurence, And Kala was accepted into the awkward version of a family. It didn't stop Kala from going to the underground fighting cages. It was there she got her real money.
Of course Rowan didn't say anything; he cared for her too much and knew of her…unusual ability, if he was really anything of that girl's father, he thought she grew up fine. "Royal flush boys" he sang placing his cards down, profanities filled the air making him laugh
OKO
Kidd and his crew fell silent as a woman who didn't take their order walked to their corner, she spun the tray setting it down and straightened herself after a quick bow and turned on her heel. The hem of her hoodie rose up a few inches and they could see a tramp stamp tattoo on her lower back, the only part visible was a tribal vine like design, she walked down the raised section as a shout sounded from the bar. "KALA, Table seven!"
"She's an odd one captain" Killer commented as Kidd took a mug of grog. The red-head shrugged and his eyes turned to the door as four cloaked men entered sitting in a booth not to far away. Kidd's eyes narrowed as he realized they were watching the Kala girl. Something big was gonna happen while he was here, a dangerous grin crossed his face as he took a drink good some entertainment
OKO
Auragurl: kyaaa little girl's smile makes Kala happy! You have to remember she only grew up an outcast and with criminals so a little girl's innocent smile is rare when the islanders hate her X3
