Here is the next chapter. I still need a few more for the Supernovas.

Chapter 24: Rivals and Friends formed.

The sound of metal clashing as Draco's swords and Helios's metal bottom boots clashed again, and then the two jumped back and stared at each other for a few minutes as a crowed formed around the two fighters.

"I was right." Helios said with a huge smile on his face as he stared at the swordsman, who also had a big smile on his face.

"About what?" Draco asked as he stood up right and then placed both his swords in front of him.

"Your loads of fun." he yelled as he ran forward and swung his leg around, as he did that, he yelled, "Howling Kick."

"Dragon Claw." Draco said as his right sword made contact with the boot and then the two went on their battle dance as they used Howling Kick and Dragon Claw respectfully.


Meanwhile at the docks, Bubbles was sitting with Jewel at a table and they were enjoying some drinks, and they had a knock out and bond Jamie by their feet. As they sat there, Jewel rubbed his jaw and then he looked down, and glared at the fish-lady.

"Get over it." Bubbles said as he sipped his drink.

"She beat a marine for no good reason." Jewel defended himself and groaned as he rubbed his jaw.

"You called her a dumb, filthy fish person. I'd kick your ass if was her, too." Bubbles said as he sipped his drink and then suddenly, his Den Den Mushi rang out and so he answered it.

"Report." he said into the special snail and then he heard Sia's voice from the other line.

"Me and Bert have obtain our quarry." Sia said through the snail, and Bubbles smiled at this.

"Good, now have the marines spread the rumor that we caught two pirates and a ship." Bubbles said through the snail.

"Yes sure, and then we will bring you them." Sia said as he hung up. After that, Bubbles sat back and smiled as his plan as working perfectly.


Back with Draco and Helios, the two continued their little duel and didn't give an inch to the other. After a few more clashes, the two jumped back and stared at each other, panting.

"Your tougher then I thought.' Helios said as tried to catch his breath.

"Yeah, I have to say the same." Draco said as he had a little trouble to lift his sword. As the two stare at each other, suddenly Helios charge forward and spun around throwing his leg out.

"Howling Round House." Helios yelled as he swung his leg around and Draco readied him self to block it with his right sword. But just as the two were about to clash, a large fire came from the sky and it separated the two. As the two looked at the fire, it began to lesson in size and then a form began to emerge from it and Helios' eyes widen as he stared at the fire.

"Helios, look at all the trouble you caused" the figure said as it became more clear and then showed it was a large human-like wolf made of fire.

"B-b-but Larentia." Helios said as he tried to reason with the figure. It just turned towards him and glared at him, which frightens him.

"No buts, let's go." she said and then she turned towards Draco, who had his swords ready to defend him self. She took a step close, and then,...she bowed down and spoke, "I'm sorry for all the trouble he caused to you." And after that, Helios walked up to her and then she used to fire to take both of them away from the area. Leaving a confused Draco and crowed. After a few minutes of just standing there, he sheathed both his swords and then continued on his way. On top of a building nearby, The fire formed and then both Larentia and Helios appeared.

"Why did you have to do that? I was having so much fun with him." Helios whined as he sat down and pouted.

"We told you not to make to much trouble. We just stated our journey and now we might have to leave before he have the supplies we need. What do you think Ryu would think?" Larentia said as she stood there and wondered were her captain was.


In a local tavern, loud laughter could be heard and people stared at a large table full of food and drinks. And seated at the table were two young men drinking and enjoying each others company. The two were Raven and Ryu, and their laughter grow louder as they told each other stories.

"So, your navigator stole a girls panties and stowed them to you all while she was still in the room?" Ryu asked as he smiled big and waited for a response.

"Yeah, along with my first mate's prized sword." Raven answered and then the two burst into loud laughter as they both took big bites from large piece of meat. As they chewed, Ryu got a question stuck in his mind and he had to ask.

"So, how many crew mates do you have?" Ryu asked as he swallowed his mouth full and then took a drink.

"Three, a first mate, cook, and navigator." Raven said as he took another huge bite of meat and then chugged a whole bottle of whine. As the two enjoyed their feast, two young marines came walking in and were talking.

"Hey did you hear that two pirates were captured?" one said to the other, and this got both Raven's and Ryu's attention.

"Yeah, and a ship. I heard it's going to be destroyed in five minutes." the other one said, and this made both Raven and Ryu burst form their seats, stare at each other, and then both yelled at the same time.

"I'VE GOT TO GO!" and with that, both of them placed money on the table to ay for their meal and then both of them ran right out of the restaurant and into two deferent directions. But what they didn't notice, was a blacked cloak figure was watching them from a table with a young girl sitting across from him. She was of average height, had long, blonde hair, a large bust, and wear a coat over a white shirt and a skirt.

"So, do they please you. Sir?" she asked as she looked at her figure.

"Yes, they do." the fugre said in a pleased tone as he took a sip of his drink.


Raven ran as fast as he could to the docks to check on his ship and friends. As he got closer and closer, his mind was racing and sweat ran down his face.

'Come on, Come oc. I have to hurry and get them off this island.' Raven thought to him self as he was just about at the dock. He turned the corner and stopped in his tracks as he stared straight forward. In front of him, Bubbles sat in a chair facing him with both Bert and Sia standing on ether side of him with both Takashi and Edgar bond and on their knees, while Jamie was still lying on her side, out cold.. Bubbles took a sip from his tea as he stared straight at Raven, who had his fist clinched and glared at him as he spoke.

"Ah, 'Blood-Red' Raven. Nice to finally meet you" Bubbles said as he finished his tea and as he placed the class down, he stood from his chair. Raven's teeth were clinched so tight that blood came from his lip. So, he used it by swiping his thumb over it and then he charged towards the young marine. But as he was about to make contact, Bubbles balled up his fist and then threw his fist well before Raven was near him and then suddenly, Raven was thrown back and skidded a few feet until he stopped.

"You bastard." Raven said as he got up and then he charged again, and as he throw his punch this time, Bubbles simply placed his palm out and as they were about to make contact, Raven's fist jolted to the side and this drew him off balance. Raven recoved and then throw punches wildly, but each time Bubbles deflected them and then after more moves Bubbles throw his own punch as he yell.

"Bubbles Fist." and as he made contact with Raven, he was sent flying down the street. As Raven was soring through the air, Bubbles said, "Soru." and then he suddenly appeared a few feet behind Raven, he then swung his leg around and as he made contact with Raven's head, he yelled, "Bubble Kick." And this sent Raven right into a building , destroying it. As Bubbles landed, both Bert and Sia stared in awe at what he had done, while Takashi and Edgar stared in shock on how easy he beat their captain.


Meanwhile in the middle of the city, Draco was calmly walking through the crows and watched as the people went through their normal lives. As he was walking, he noticed a large clock tower and saw that it was about six.

"Hmm, almost time to go get our ship." Draco said as he stopped and took a deep breath, but then he suddenly heard a woman's voice.

"Is that a fire?" she cried out and as Draco looked, he could tell it wasn't any fire.

"Please, please, please." he said under his breath as he hoped it wasn't from were he thought it was coming from.

"I think it's coming from the docks." a man said, and this made Draco let out a loud sigh.

"Damn it." Draco said as he took off and headed towards the smoke, what he didn't notice was three figures watching him.

"So, this is the guy you played with huh Helios?" Ryu asked his crew mate.

"Yep, he was lots of fun." Helios said with a wicked smile on his face and then he turned towards Larentia.

"Well, what should we do Ryu?" she asked as she stared at her captain. He stood there for a moment and then he had a huge smile on his face.

"Let's find out were he's heading." Ryu said as the three began to follow the swordsman.

TBC.


Will Draco get there in time? What does Ryu have planned? And can they get away from Bubbles and continued their journey? And who was the cloaked figure and what did he want with Raven and Ryu?


Well, that's it and I hope you liked it. Please read and Review, and I still need oc for certain rolls.
