A young lady and her children passed by as Yoh and HoroHoro went back under the deck wondering the corridors searching for their room.
"G-60. G-60.." Yoh muttered quietly to himself. Not paying to much attention he accidentally bumps into a woman. "Oh sorry Ma'am!"
"Nice going…" HoroHoro snickered.
Yoh lightly shook his head and kept looking till he finally found the room. "Oh here it is!"
HoroHoro had his gazed fixed on a pretty young lady who had passed by him and smiled at him. Quickly he turned away and walked into the room.
Two other guys were there already.
"Hey how you doing! I'm Yoh Asakura!" He said introducing himself to the one sitting on the bed. He turned to other standing holding out his hand. "Yoh Asakura nice to meet you!"
The other guy shook his hand.
Yoh lightly patted him on the back and turned to see HoroHoro who was already on the top bunk of the bed. "Hey who says you get top bunk huh!?" Yoh said tickling his friend.
"Ha Ha your were two slow it's mine now!" HoroHoro laughed fluffing the pillow beneath his head.
Yoh shrugged and went down to the bottom bunk of the bed.
The two other boys looked at each other confusedly.
Back where Hao was in the parlor suite walking amongst one of the rooms holding an empty glass in one hand and a bottle of champagne in his other hand.
"This is your private promenade deck sir." The attendant said following behind him.
Hao walked over and looked out the window into the water below.
"Would you be requiring anything sir?"
Hao shook his head and waved him off.
"Excuse me…" with that the attendant left the room.
In the other room Anna was taking out the pictures of art work she had brought along with her.
"This one?" the Maid asked.
Anna shook her head. "No."
"It had a lot of faces on it."
"This is the one." Anna said pulling it out.
"Would you like them all out miss?"
Anna nodded. "Yes. We need a little color in this room."
Hao walked back into the room leaning against the doorway. "God not those finger paintings again. They certainly were a waste of money."
Anna just rolled her eyes. "The difference between Hao's taste in art and mine is that I have some. Their fascinating." She said putting one of the paintings she was holding down on the couch. "It's like…being inside a dream or something. There's truth but no logic."
"What's the artist's name?" the Maid asked curiously.
"Something Picasso…" Anna replied.
Hao chuckled. "Something Picasso. He won't amount to a thing. He won't trust me! At least they were cheap."
Anna ignored what he said and walked into the other room to hang up the painting somewhere.
Hao shoved the bottle into a bucket of ice as he sipped the champagne in his glass.
Later that night while Anna and Keiko were heading to dinner they met a girl that came aboard . She was one of the very rich people on the ship. Her name was Tamera but we all called her the "Unsinkable Tameo."
Carrying her bags she set them down and turned to the attendants. "Well I wasn't going to wait for ya all day…you think you can manage?" she said handing him one of her bags.
Her husband had struck gold somewhere out west and she was what Keiko called "new money."
By the next afternoon they steaming west from the coast of Ireland with nothing out ahead of them but ocean.
On top of the ship the Captain and his second man stood gazing out ahead.
"Take it to sea Mr. Murdock…Lets stretch her legs." the Captain said with a smile.
"Yes sir." he replied walking away to the were the others were. "All ahead full."
They nodded and put it on full.
Everyone did as told now doing what they needed to make ship pick up speed.
Yoh and HoroHoro ran to very front of the ship looking down in the deep ocean taking in the salty air the cool breeze running through their hair.
"Whoa this is sooo cool!" HoroHoro said.
"Yeah it sure is!" Yoh agreed.
"21 knots sir." Mr. Murdock said going back beside the Captain once more.
He simply smiled once more.
Yoh was looking around till he spotted something in the water.
"HoroHoro look! Look!" he said pointing to the dolphin right infront of the ship.
HoroHoro looked down to where Yoh pointed. "Sweet!"
Jus then another dolphin came and swam beside the other.
"Hey there is another one!"
More of them came and now there was about four of five them.
They swam faster.
"HoroHoro look! That one is going to jump!"
The dolphin then jumped up a few good feet and dived back down into the water.
Yoh and HoroHoro laughed watching the dolphins down below jump and play.
Yoh then jumped up onto the railing. "Woo!" He slightly leaned back.
"I can see the Statue Of Liberty already!" HoroHoro pointed out. "But it's very small of course."
Suddenly Yoh stood all the way up and shouted out. "I'M THE KING OF THE WORLD!!"
HoroHoro cracked up. "You mean Shaman King!"
"Damn right!" Yoh cheered proudly.
Both Yoh and HoroHoro started cheering happily.
Yoh then let out a victory "howl."
Down back in the dinning room Anna was with a group of people talking.
"She's the most largest moving object ever made by the hand of man in all history. And our master shipbuilder Mr. Andrews here designed her from the keel plates up." Mr. Ismay explained. \
"I may have knocked her together but the idea was Mr. Ismay's." Mr. Andrews said. "He envisioned a steamer so grand in scale…and so luxurious in its appointments that its supremacy would never challenged. And here she is. Willed into solid reality." He said patting the table.
Anna put this thing in her mouth at the end it had a cigarette on it. She lit it and put it between her fingers and in her mouth and took a puff.
Keiko glared at her. "You know I don't like that Anna…"
Anna looked over at her mother not saying anything as she blew out the smoke.
"She knows." Hao said taking the cig and putting it out.
Anna glared at him.
Tameo looked at him strangely.
"We'll both have the lamb. Rare with very little mint sauce. "
Anna looked away.
"You like lamb right Sweet pea?" Hao asked turning to Anna.
Anna just softly smiled.
Tameo looked between them. "You going to cut her meat for her too there Hao?" she teased.
Hao looked at her and blinked.
"Hey who thought of the name Titanic?" Tameo asked. She looked over at Mr. Ismay. "Was it you?"
"Yes actually. I wanted to convey sheer size. And size means stability, luxury, and above all strength."
"Do you know of Dr. Freud Mr. Ismay?" Anna asked. "His ideas about the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest to you."
Some of them laughed to her statement but Keiko seemed somewhat annoyed.
"What's gotten into you?" she whispered over to her daughter.
"Excuse me." Anna muttered getting up from the table walking away.
"I do apologize." Keiko said.
"She's a pistol Hao. Hope you can handle her." Tameo said with a small chuckle.
"I may have to start minding what she reads from now on won't I miss Tameo?" Hao responded.
"Freud…who is he? Is he a passenger?"
