Cowboys And Cowgirls

Chapter 4

Five months into their voyage they came across an uncharted island in the first half of the Grand Line. The only inhabitants were horses. There were Elemental, Light, and dark horses. Same for the unicorns and pegasi. There were no alicorns. Regular horses mixed with the other mythical horse. The crew watched, laughing, as Kiely and Shadow jumped off the boat and dashed off to mingle. The other crew members knew about Kiely's and Shadow's abilities. They soon followed and found the two talking to a big flaming unicorn. Kiely spotted ace and called out to him. The big unicorn turned its head to view the young captain as he approached. "This is Stryker. He is the leader of this herd and has offered to let his herd bond with the crew. He would bond with you and I and everyone would be able to pick a horse to bond with while all horses would also be bound to me." Kiely said. Ace nodded and bowed to Stryker. "It is an honor sir." He said. "Ki, would you explain the bonding to the crew?"

Kiely nodded and turned. "When a mythical horse or regular horse bonds with a human they can share thoughts, emotions, and become one. The horse usually picks the human they are most suited to bond with." The crew nodded and went off to mingle. Three hours later they left the horses minus Stryker and set sail. Stryker had explained that they would only have to call out along their mental link and their horse would appear. Every day the crew would take time out of their chore schedule to call to their bonded companions and hangout.

They soon reached the next island and found the 'Sea Knight' Jimbe waiting for them. He had heard of Ace's desire to take Whitebeard's head and came to stop him. They fought for five days before the old man arrived. Ace attacked while sending a call to Stryker who had left to check on his herd. Stryker appeared in a flash of fire just as Ace was sent flying. He maneuvered himself to be under Ace and caught him as he fell. Ki rode up on Shadow to stand next to him and Stryker. Ace whispered to Ki 'Take the crew back to the ship and travel ahead to the next island they plan to dock at. Ki nodded and slipped a Dark Elf Horse into Ace's bag. The horse was tiny and could disappear into shadows making it perfect for spying.

Ki wheeled Shadow around and signaled the crew. They ran after her, understanding their orders. Whitebeard watched the crew retreat in disgust and looked at Ace. He was surprised to see a smirk on the young captains face and spoke up. "Are you going to let your crew abandon you like that?" He watched as Ace dismounted his odd steed and stroke it's nose. The Horse snorted before galloping off after the crew. "No." Ace replied. "I'm just letting them get away and meet me later." Whitebeard looked at him in confusion but ace just smirked and lit his fists on fire.

Little did the Whitebeard Pirates know, the Spade Pirates had slipped right around them by using water horses, unicorns, and pegasi.
