"Mi-mi-mi-mi!" Puss laughed as he with his cat-eared pirates stood collected around the bed, with the snoring navigator in it. "Got you now, squirt." He laughed, raising up a bag, and drew it downwards, obviously intending to put Alejandro in the bag, but as the bag came down, Alejandro rolled to his side, thus avoiding it.
"Huh?" Puss blinked, and tried to put down the bag again, and then again, and again. Yet each time, Alejandro rolled to the side, and avoided the bag.
"LAY STILL YOU DAMN SQUIRT!" Puss yelled, before suddenly, a cane found its way to under his knees, and pulled is legs away from under him, so Puss fell to the ground. "WHAT THE HELL!?" he exclaimed looking up.
To realise, that Alejandro was smirking, fully awake as he looked at them from under his hat. "You really think you can take me by surprise that easily?" Alejandro asked, as he yawned deeply.
"YOU WERE A SLEEP!" Puss yelled.
"Please, my entire childhood, pirates have tried to wake me up, using ice-water, torches and swords for fun. No disrespect or any-thing, since you are a cat and all, but most other pirates are way more stealthy than you are, I mean, at last Julian back in the day, tried to be quiet." Alejandro stated as he sat up and yawned stretching his arms. "So what do you want Puss?" he asked, scratching his hair. "I'm pretty tired, so can we make this short, maybe?" he asked.
"There is no way that silver haired boy was the child of a celestial dragon!" Puss exclaimed.
"Wow, sorry Puss, I must have underestimated you." Alejandro blinked. "I thought it would have taken you another week at least to figure that one out." He smirked, crossing his arms.
"OI ARE YOU MOCKING ME!? Puss asked in a angry voice.
"Me? Never!" Alejandro exclaimed as if was highly offended. "And certainly not such an intelligent, legendary, strong pirate as yourself." He stated. "That would be rude."
"Why thank you.. WAIT!" Puss yelled. "You are mocking me again!" he exclaimed.
Alejandro shrugged. "Sorry." He stated. "But please be a good kitty now and let me sleep." He yawned. "That's what lovely Elly told me to do, and I would never disrespect her wishes." He stated, laying back, with his hat back over his eyes.
"I WILL NOT BE A GOOD KITTY!" Puss yelled, as he drew a sword, and aimed it straight at Alejandro, whom rolled aside, and landed on the floor, standing up holding his hat.
"Hey, that was pretty uncalled for, don't you think?" Alejandro asked leaning on his cane, holding his hat with the other hand.
"No." Puss stated. "THIS IS!" he stated launching for Alejandro.
Only for Alejandro to step aside, and trip the cat pirate with his cane.
"Nice try, but perhaps you should watch your footing a bit more." Alejandro commented in a smirk.
"YOU LITTLE!" Puss yelled, zooming back for Alejandro, whom parried the sword with the cane, and put it down.
Then he laughed. "Oh it's been a while since I've been engaged probably!" Alejandro exclaimed. "I feared I had might gotten a little rusty, come at me Puss, pare, pare DUCK!" he stated, as he ducked himself, so Puss fell forwards, as his sword wasn't stopped.
Then he hissed as he stood up. "You little squirt!" as he turned around and blinked. "Hey, where did he go?" he asked, making all the cat pirates shrug.
"Over here!" a voice sounded from the window, and they all turned around, to see Alejandro sitting in the window. "I'm sorry, but could you please, not destroy that hotel room? We kind of paid for it all-ready." He stated. "If you want to play, go out-side."
"You little!" Puss hissed.
"Ta!" Alejandro grinned as he waved at them, then grabbed the roof above them, and was gone from sight in an instance.
"AFTER HIM!" Puss yelled, as they all ran towards the window, and pushed each other to get out first.
Alejandro in the mean-time, had easily climbed to the roof top, and now had to bite together as he rubbed his sore leg.
Well.. he just had to ignore the pain for now, and hopefully Elly wouldn't be to upset..
"THERE HE IS!" A cat pirate yelled pointing at him.
"GET HIM!" Puss yelled from beneath.
"Heh." Alejandro smiled a little strained, as he threw away his cane, and turned around to run, pushing away any pain, as he took a leap from the roof top, and landed on the next one.
A leap that was normally very easy for him, as he had spend years on perfecting his roof jumping, but upon impact this time, his eyes widened in pain, as he let out a big. "UF!"
He didn't have to much time, to linger on that though, as the cat pirates were in full pursuit, and they weren't shy of roof jumping either.
"Just because two fishmen or women are in family, doesn't mean they are of the same species." Ryu read, as she sat beside Yanopp, on some steps on the street. "Two siblings, with the same parents, can be of two different species entirely, just as long as some-one, down the family tree, were a species, the child could become that. That is why Fishmen and Fishwomen, don't look at appearances the same was a humans does, for them, difference of appearance has no meaning."
"So that'll mean, that if you do have family out there, they don't necessarily look like you?" Yanopp commented, taking a bite out of an apple she was sitting with, looking at the book.
"I think so." Ryu nodded. "Mermaids and fishmen are also fully capable of having children together, so any family doesn't need to be fishmen or women, they could be mermaids or mermen."
"hmm." Yanopp nodded, taking another bite of her apple, then she swallowed. "I wouldn't be surprised if you got some mermaid in you, you are elegant like one." She stated.
Ryu shrugged as she smiled. "Perhaps, who knows?" she asked.
Just that moment, some-thing fell down from above, and landed in a big crash in the flower bed, right behind the two young star pirates.
"Huh?" The two young women blinked as they turned around, to witness a young man laying there on his back groaning.
"Alejandro?" Yanopp blinked confused.
Alejandro blinked, and then looked at Yanopp, to brighten up. "SENORITA!" he exclaimed happily.
Only for a voice to sound above. "THERE HE IS! AND I RECOGNISE THAT GOBLIN WOMAN TO! SHE WAS ON THE SHIP!"
At that Yanopp looked up, and faced a bunch of cat people up on the roof, looking down at them.
"Well, I guess it's time to go." Alejandro stated, standing up. "HURRY SENORITA!" he exclaimed, grabbing Yanopp's wrist, pulling her with him, just as a bunch of a catpirate jumped down.
Though compleately passed over Ryu, whom was still cloaked, hiding her appearance, and she could only blink, as she looked at the backs of the cat pirates, disappearing into the allies.
"WHAT THE HELL KIND OF MESS HAVE YOU NOW GOTTEN YOURSEL INTO!?" Yanopp yelled, as she was pulled with Alejandro through the streets.
"They attacked me! I was just taking a nap!" Alejandro exclaimed.
"Has it occurred to you that they might attacked you, because you lied to them!?" Yanopp shouted back.
That made Alejandro blinked. "You think so?" he asked.
"YOU ARE SUCH A FUCKING IDIOT!" Yanopp yelled.
Alejandro though sighed deeply. "I love you senorita." He stated, in a smile.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Yanopp shouted, just as they ran into a blind alley. "Now what do we do?" she asked.
Only for Alejandro to open one of the back-alley doors. "Where there is a door, there is a way." He presented.
"You mean going into some-ones home!?" Yanopp asked.
"After you senorita." Alejandro gestured with his hand.
Yanopp gaped at the navigator, but then, as a bunch of cat pirates came for them, she seemed to change her mind, as she zoomed into the door, Alejandro closely following suite, for them to find themselves inside of a kitchen, filled with cooks and big pans.. and very angry cooks. That started to yell at them, and throw things at, them as they made their way to the dining room.
It ended up being to their advantages though, as the cooks had really been worked up when the cat pirates came, and they didn't even get to enter before they had boiling hot gravy thrown into their faces.
Finally, the two star pirates were on the other-side back on a crowded street, breathing heavily in and out, looking wide-eyed out in the air.
Just as a new voice came in front of them. "So you thought you would get away so easily?"
"ARGH!" Yanopp screamed, and kicked the black cat away that had talked, so it flew through the air screaming.
"MAAAAAAAUUUUUUWWWW!"
"OH GOD!" Yanopp exclaimed covering her mouth with her mouth with her hands. "I'm sorry! I.."
"You just kicked Captain Puss." Alejandro blinked, then he smirked, and then he laughed.
"HE STARTLED ME!" Yanopp exclaimed.
And Alejandro laughed whole-heartedly, holding his stomach, then he wiped his eye. "Hahaha! His face! It was so good!"
"WOULD YOU SHUT UP!" Yanopp exclaimed, kicking Alejandro over the knee.. the wrong knee.
So suddenly his eyes widened in pain, and Alejandro grimaced as he held his knee, and fell to the ground.
"Oh god! I'm so sorry!" Yanopp exclaimed. "I didn't.."
"It's.. fine.." Alejandro hissed from where he sat on the ground, his eyes watering from the pain.
"Are.. are you sure?" Yanopp asked.
"Uhu." Alejandro nodded, having bit together as hard as he could, clearly in deep pain.
"And you, are you okay? I mean." Yanopp hesitated.
"I told it was okay." Alejandro exclaimed.
"I was talking to Puss." Yanopp snorted.
"WHAT!?" Alejandro exclaimed. "Puss!? He is the one who attacked me!"
The black cat though, laid on the ground, having spirals instead of eyes, looking completely out of it.
Carefully Yanopp picked up the cat, only for it to act like a complete limp ragdoll in her hands. "I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed. "You just scared me! I… I mean."
"Hey, he started it, you don't have to feel sorry for him." Alejandro pointed out a little annoyed, rubbing his pained leg.
"But look at him, he.. he's so.." Yanopp bit her lip, shaking the cat. "HALLOO! Wake up!" she asked. "Please say I didn't kill you!" she exclaimed.
Only for the cat to open his eyes and hiss at her. "PUT ME DOWN GOBLIN WOMAN!"
"ARGH!" Yanopp exclaimed letting go of the cat, so he landed on the ground with a thumb.
"Auw! Be careful! You all-ready hurt me bad enough all-ready. " Puss sniffed. "It huuuurts." He cried rolling around, on the ground.
"Tch." Alejandro snorted picking Puss up in the skin-nip of his neck, holding the cat up in the air. "A little kick and you turn into a complete coward, how could I expect any-thing else from you?" he asked.
"HEY PUT ME DOWN! YOU INSOLENT LITTLE SQUIRT!" Puss exclaimed.
"Will you then promise to leave us alone?" Alejandro asked.
Puss snorted as he looked away.
"Oi!" Alejandro shook the cat in the neck. "We came here, to have a nice couple of days collection supplies before going to the grand-line, can you let us do that?" he asked.
"I wont make any promises." Puss snorted looking away.
Only for a fist coming raging down, giving the cat a new bump on his head.
"How about now?" Yanopp asked cracking her knuckles.
"You people are mean." Puss cried.
"YOU CHASED US DOWN THE STREET!" Both Alejandro and Yanopp screamed.
"Waah, I'm in pain, I can barely breath." Puss exclaimed, wining as if he was in pain. "These people are killing me, maaaauwww!"
"Tch, coward." Alejandro snorted, letting go of the cat so he dumped down on the ground.
Then Alejandro stood up himself, hissing a bit, but managed to find a walking pace he could deal with.
Yanopp walking beside him down the street, just as a cat called out.
"How will I ever find my crew new, mauw, I can't even walk mauw." The cat cried. "These people are cruel, truly cruel."
That made the two stop up, and looked annoyed in front of them, with very similar face-expressions.
"Well." Yanopp exhaled. "What are you waiting for, go pick him up."
"Why me?" Alejandro asked. "It hurts walking as it is." He grimaced.
"He is your friend." Yanopp stated, looking at Alejandro as she crossed her arms.
"Senorita, where would you get such a weird idea?" Alejandro asked.
"Well, if you play, you have to clean up." Yanopp stated.
A little while after, a black cat was satisfied hanging on Alejandros shoulder.
"Goblin woman, I was wrong about you. Any-one whom can make squirt quiet has my respect." Puss purred.
"Hey, I am not a goblin, and the name is Yanopp." Yanopp hissed.
"Uhu." Puss nodded with closed eyes, as if he didn't even give a care.
"I'm starting to regret this." Yanopp admitted in a tired expression.
"Starting?" Alejandro asked, in a equally tired face expression.
