(Sec 29) * * * * *

As the Delphinus docked at Maramba Port, Vyse turned to Luffy, "We won't be here too long. We only have one old friend here to see if they'd like to re-join. Do you mind staying here?"

"Yosh. I'll start looking for Mystery Ossan."

"Mystery Ossan?"

"I believe that's his nick name for Davy Jones," Chopper explained.

"Ah. Alright, Aika, Fina and I won't be too long."

As Vyse and the others arrived at the Tavern, they were quite surprised at how empty it was. The only people there were the Bar Keep and Merida, both of which were sitting doing nothing. Merida looked up when Vyse and the others as they walked in, and she brightened up.

"Vyse!"

"Merida, good to see you."

"How have you all been?"

"Well, since the wedding, things have been kinda slow."

"It's been slow here, too. All the sailors that used to come here are all off exploring the new lands since the South Ocean calmed down."

"That's a shame."

"I wish I could come back and be a part of the Blue Rouges."

"Funny you should mention that," Aika said.

"We were coming here hoping you'd like to re-join," Fina stated.

"REALLY!?"

Vyse gave a nod.

"YEAH! I've started to miss the days of sailing with you. OH! I have a friend that seems to really liked the sound of your adventures. Do you mind if she came along."

"Um, sure. But shouldn't you introduce us first?"

"HEY!" The Bar Keep said, "How about giving me some business and buying a drink."

Vyse turned to Aika and Fina, "One quick drink?"

"Sure."

So they finished their drinks and went of to Merida's Apartment to meet her friend.

"Syre? I have a few people I'd like you to meet."

A woman came to the door. She was about 5"3', had shoulder-length black hair, cat ears tail(also black, but a bit brighter than her hair), small demon wings, and wore glasses, with blue-green eyes behind them, a black scarf, a red belly T-shirt and a 3/4 Jeans.

Syre saw Vyse and went hysterical, "OhMyGosh!" She flung the door open all the way and zoomed out, giving Merida a tight hug, "EEEEE! Vyse!My-Name-Is-Syreren-But-You-Can-Call-Me-Syre!I-Really-Like-How-Awesome-Your-Adventures-Sounded!Can-I-Join-Your-Crew!?I-Use-Daggers-And-Can-Bite-My-Enemies!Whatever-Positions-You-Have-Opened-I'll-Take!But-I'm-Really-Clumsy!Can-I-Join-Your-Crew!?Can-I!?Can-I!?Can-I!?"

Vyse, Aika and Fina just stood there a moment as Syreren was flying circles around them and talking a mile a minute. Merida held her hand up, and when the opportunity presented itself, grabbed Syreren's Tail, who let out a yelp of pain and surprise as she fell hitting her bottom on the floor. As she stood up she rubbed her behind, "I told you I don't like it when you grab my tail," Syreren said in a slightly whiny voice.

"You were talking so fast Vyse couldn't here what you were saying."

Syreren blinked a couple of times and turned to Vyse, "EEEE!"

Merida grabbed Syreren's ear before she could repeat exactly what she just did.

"Ah! Okay, okay, I'll try to be calm about it." Syreren was able to tell Vyse calmly of what she would be able to do as one of his crew members.

"There, was that so hard?" Merida asked.

"Yes, but it was worth it," Syreren turned to Vyse, "Can I Join!?"

"Alright, But what position would you like?"

"Um...I'm really good at cleaning things. And with my wings I can reach hard to get places."

"Are you okay with being a Deck Hand?"

"EEEEE!"

"Okay! Okay, you can join."

Syreren gave Vyse a Vice Grip of a hug before zooming back into the apartment and coming back out a couple minutes later with a few suitcases which had all of her and Merida's stuff. Syreren was also wearing Black Combat Boots and a Broad Belt with two bags where her daggers were. She gave one Bag to Merida before she zoomed off, checked out of the Inn, and went to the docks where she found the Delphinus.

By the time Vyse and the other three caught up, the ship was practically blinding them from how shiny it looked. Vyse went up to the bridge while Aika and Fina took Merida to where she'd be sleeping. When Vyse stepped in, He saw Syreren Vice Hugging Chopper.

"He's such a cute Tanuki!"

"I'm not a Tanuki! I'm a Reindeer! Let me Go!"

"Alright, I guess you all know Syreren now. Off To Nasard!"

(Sec 30) * * * * *

Nasard was back to the way it once was over a year ago. The Docks weren't only rebuilt, but had been expanded now that there were two more countries conducting Trades. The Main Attraction now would be "Vize and Crew Look A Likes Show", which had a lot more members that looked like Vyse's Crew, and were doing Weekly Shows imitating the Adventure's Vyse had written about.

"Are we Going to be able to see the show!?" Luffy and Syre asked.

"Of course," Vyse replied, "We'll be staying the night in this city. The show starts at later, so how about we look around town?"

"Well, well, well," a Familiar Voice said, "If it isn't our Favorite Captain."

Vyse turned around. Just as he figured, Vize had found him, and in record Time, too.

"Hey, Vize, How's been business?"

"Running very nicely. Osman was kind enough to finance everything relating to your show, since people don't seem to be getting sick of your amazing adventures."

"...Osman...is paying for everything?" Vyse questioned, "That doesn't sound like her..."

"Well, she gets 30% of all the profit."

"That still doesn't sound right."

"OKAY! 45%."

"That sounds more like it. Say, you think you'd be able to score extra tickets for me, my crew, and my new friends?"

"Extra Tickets? No problem. After all, We wouldn't be doing so well if you didn't give us a detailed copy of your adventures. So, who's Dopleganger Number Two?" Vize asked, turning to Luffy.

"I'm Luffy, Pleased to meet Cha!"

"He's Captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. He needed some spare cloths after an accident with my sword closet."

"HaHa! I want a copy of that later."

"We'll see," Vyse said with a laugh.

"Here's your Tickets, show starts in four hours. We just finished your story again, so we'll be at the beginning tonight, unless you want to put on a special Show Tonight?"

"You mean do a Battle?"

"I don't see why not, plus, I'd be able to sell more tickets if this is a one time show."

"It's a deal," Vyse held out his hand for a shake. Vize shook it.

"Alright, I'll go let Osman know what's going on and start selling like mad," and with that, Vize ran off with the special news.

Vyse and Luffy went to see if Osman was going to be joining the crew. When the reached Osman's Business, it was bustling with activity. Merchants from all over the world were trying to get in to see if they'd be able to join Osman's Trade. Seeing as time wasn't of the essence, they waited for their turn. Eventually, Vyse and Luffy were able to meet with Osman.

"And what can I do for...VYSE!?" Osman asked very surprised.

"Osman?" Vyse asked.

Apparently, the last year had been very good to Osman. She had lost a LOT of weight and was now not only slim, but had a very gracious and curvy figure.

"What Ca I do for the Great King of the Blue Rouges?" Osman asked, anticipating a great deal coming her way.

"I was coming by to see how things were going, very well, I'm guessing from the crowds?"

"OH, Very Well, Indeed."

"So I'm guessing re-joining my crew would be out of the question?"

"I'm afraid so, but it was nice of you to drop by."

"well, at least let me sell something to you."

"Sell?"

"I have quite a few Black Maps and MoonBerries that I have no purpose to keep."

"Black Maps aren't worth all that much, but Moon Berries!? Those are rare!"

"I have quite a stash made up."

"Well let me see!" Vyse brought out a big bag filled with about a thousand or so Moon Berries. "Oh MY!" Osman tried one, "These are the real deal! And these aren't like the ones I've had before. I'll give you 100 Gold for each one."

"I could get a better price somewhere else," Vyse said with a smug look.

"Ohhhh...500 Each!"

"Hmmm...I don't know..."

"750 A Piece!"

"Deal! There were exactly 1001 in that bag. The first was free. So let me see...That will be 750,000 gold please."

"Vyse, you sly dog. I'd only go up that high for you," Osman said as she went over to her vault to retrieve the money.

"You'll get your money back at some point. After all, I will be helping Vize do a Once In A Life Time Show tonight."

"Sigh, I suppose you're right. Here's your Money," she put three bags down, "Each one has 250,000 gold pieces in it. That better be one hell of a show!"

"Don't you worry about that. Pleasure doing Business with you" Vyse said as he picked up two of the heavy bags, Luffy picking up the third. 'Wow,' Vyse thought to himself, 'No wonder she was able to get into shape, these things can be quite a workout.'

By the time Luffy and Vyse put the new loot onto the ship, it was just about time for the show.

"So, you want me to take this fight?" Luffy said with a grin.

"We'll see what the audience wants."

Luffy and Vyse were able to meet up with the others and give them their tickets(which were all Front Row Seats)."LADIES AND GENTALMEN!" Osman said with a loud Voice into the Microphone, "Thank you for joining us tonight! We have a VERY special show tonight! Instead of our usual performance in which Vize and his crew of Duplicates act out Vyse's Adventures, Vize shall be doing Battle against either Vyse, or one of his crew members or friends, since they have joined us tonight!"

There was Ooh's, Aah's, and Roars from the crowd as Vize walked on stage and had the mic handed to him.

"Thank You! Thank You! Yes, you heard right, this is a Once in a Lifetime Performance! Vyse has brought some Pirate Friends of his known as the Straw Hat Pirates! Now will Members from Both Crews Please Stand and come on Stage on who wants to fight me!?"

Vyse, Khazim, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji all stood and walked onto the stage.

"So, we all know Captain Vyse. Khazim the Gunner was one of our countries protectors! So lets take a look at these three!" Vize walked over to Luffy, "Now, who are you? Tell us about yourself."

"I'm Monkey D. Luffy, Captain of the Straw Hats, and I'm going to be King of the Pirates!"

"OH, such a bold statement to make. And you, good sir?" holding the mic to Zoro.

"I am Roanola Zoro. I am a Master of Sintaru, a Three Sword Style, and will one day be the best swordsman in the world."

"Wow, we got guys with big dreams tonight! And you...sir, no smoking in the building, please?"

Sanji put out his cigarette, but kept it in his mouth, "Sorry about that. Force of habit. I am Sanji, the Cook of the crew. I fight with my legs, because if I do anything to my hands, I lose my great cooking. My dream is to one day find the sea which holds all the fish from the four corners of the Globe, and set up a restaurant."

"That's very interesting! ALRIGHT! Now then, my guests, who will be fighting me tonight?"

There was a loud rawr of the five names being yelled out, making it very difficult to hear who was supposed to be chosen. Vize eventually figured who had one.

"Tonight...I shall be fighting...ROANOLA ZORO!"

Another loud rawr erupted from the crowd, "The four of you may go back to your seats and enjoy the show!"
