Chapter One: New recruit of Diverse Characteristics

Having an enchanted key on your back all the time was fun, especially when it did not mind you when you decided to hack it all about at anyone who tried to take it from you. Currently the scene was traditional, A.B.A. faced against Johnny, a chivalrous bandit who took in homeless girls and took care of them, all the while teaching them to steal. A.B.A. currently accused him of trying to trick her to join in order to take her key from her.

"You just want Paracelsus!" A.B.A. shouted to Johnny.

Johnny looked surprised, and then he smiled. "No, what I want is for you to live an interesting life, rather than a live off the streets one."

A.B.A. didn't quite understand what she was hearing, for once, she actually heard someone care! She decided that she should probably ask Paracelsus. She turned to him and it rolled its eyes. A.B.A. smiled and turned to the anxious Johnny.

"Well….if you are telling the truth…I suppose." At that instant Johnny grabbed her and flew towards the May ship. May spun around as Johnny ran passed, almost causing her to spill her Ramen noodles.

"Hey! Johnny! Who's that?" May asked him with jealousy.

Johnny turned around and let go of ABA, ABA giving a sigh of relief. He then smiled broadly to his companion. "Could you believe it? I found her walking the streets with old rags for clothes, a key and eyes that looked like they haven't slept in days!" He rubbed ABA's head and soon pulled away, finding her hair dirtier than he thought. He gasped. "Gah! May!"

May slurped the last of her food and dropped her plate, doing a salute. "Yes Johnny?"

"Emergency Wash down! Her! All units!" Johnny then pointed at a surprised ABA.

"Eh?" she asked in confusion.

Suddenly May blew a large whistle, causing a bunch of crew members wielding cleaning materials; including Dizzy and April to appear from their post.

"What is it May?" Dizzy asked politely.

"Code Orange! May yelled while pointing at a surprised ABA.

The girls gasped at ABA's dirty body and tackled her immediately, causing her to yelp, then they carried her off, leaving the enchanted key behind, an annoyed look on its normally emotionless face.

"Well, time to get back to our new wide screen television! May, inform me when you are done!" Johnny yelled out to her, leaving for the common decks.

Later ABA opened her eyes to find herself in a bath tub full of more bubbles than she thought possible, her yes widened.

"Holy Keys!" She cursed.

"Hey! No cussing!" May scolded, pulling out a sponge and some heavy duty shampoo.

Dizzy examined ABA closely, her wings taking great interest in the key sticking out the side of her head. Necro tried tugging it lightly while Undine poked it with her index finger. Dizzy asked her a personal question.

"How long has it been since your last clean up?" Dizzy asked.

ABA shyly looked around, looking at all of the girls with cleaning devices.

"Um….never?"

The girls gasped, and Dizzy fainted. May ran up to her and took out her whistle again, but not before grinning maliciously at ABA, causing her to move back more than May's previous "Get in your face" act had done.

"Scrub her down dawgs!" May shouted, blowing her whistle like a mad person.

Then girls all began scrubbing her down, ABA wondered if she would see the light of day again, feeling that they were taking it too far, although she liked feeling clean. After what seemed like a 4 hour scrub down, which it probably was, they suddenly threw her behind a curtain for new clothes.

"Gah!" ABA shouted as she flew through the air, the girls jumped behind it and started dressing her in random things. Dizzy was revived and began helping the others.

Soon enough they pulled back the drapes and put her in front of a mirror. ABA noted that all they did to her downward spiky hair was make it clean, in which case, it was down in the classic short hair style. She definitely noticed the clothes though, since they thought ABA looked good in punk, they gave her Black under clothing (you know what I mean!) a black T-shirt with a picture of a key on it, a leather jacket with far too many buckles, chains and pockets that were nearly useless, and black tight jeans, along with snug comfortable black boots…and black socks.

ABA blinked and touched her face, noticing she now had new black leather gloves, like her old ones. Her eyes were still tired, that's the only thing she recognized, feeling sweaty she took off the annoying gloves. "Gah…"

"It's the only thing we had in your size! Besides, looks good!" May commented, patting her shoulder. ABA grimaced.

"You should get some rest!" Dizzy pointed to her eyes. "You have some huge moons under those pools!" ABA looked at her strangely. She sighed.

Necro popped out from nowhere and pointed at her. "In other words you look like crap! Go to sleep you sicko!" Then he disappeared. Dizzy raised a finger, but closed her mouth and retreated, she thought ABA had the picture.

"Well…I guess I am kind of sleepy." ABA then proceeded with April to an unoccupied room; soon enough April came back out. The girls looked at her expectantly. "Did you know she hadn't slept a wink since she was born?" May gasped. "She should be dead!"

"Well…I don't know…perhaps she is different….however, she really looked like she needed sleep." Dizzy added. The girls nodded quietly and left the Bathroom/make up room/dresser/…you get it!

Meanwhile Johnny was interested with the Key ABA had before, it looked like it could use a disembodied voice to speak, he heard it growl! He just needed it to speak.

"Come on! You can talk to Johnny; I just want to know about the girl!"

The key narrowed its eyes. "Shut up! Fool!"

Johnny backed up, surprised. "So, you can speak!"

"Yes, I can."

"So you mind telling me about ABA?"

"You mean besides the fact that she does nothing but carry me around, hug me and stare at me while I try to sleep? I swear she didn't sleep a wink in her life because of her obsession!"

"Uh…I suppose…"

"Oh…well I got nothing."

"Hmm….I was thinking about allowing her to join my crew. She could use that fighting skill to help us."

"Hmm…I don't know…she can be…hard to tolerate…"

"What do you mean?"

"Two words….Sugar, Caffeine."

"Not another one!" Johnny held his head in disbelief.

"Yep."

"She uses that stuff in order to stay awake and stare at you?"

"A pure whack job, eh?"

"Crap…"

As soon as Johnny finished his conversation with the inanimate object, May walked in, closing the door behind her. "So what's with the deal? Giving us special orders like that?"

"Simple my princess." Johnny replied. "She was in need, innocent and a street rat, I could not possibly let such a run down looking girl get away."

"Sometimes I think you might care too much."

"If I didn't I might not have you or anyone else up here, it was a very thin line, I am always thickening it, I'd say by now, it would take a pretty long sword to cut it."

"Hmm…I suppose." May's reply came thoughtfully.

"So, what is she doing now?"

"Sleeping."

"Hmm…I thought so. Well we shall have a robbery tomorrow; we'll see if she can join us tomorrow, if she has rested enough, then I'll give her some pirate clothes." Johnny said to May coolly.

"Alright, no need to worry about her street clothes; we have it taken care of!" May told him.

"Ok, take her key here and put it in her room, she might maul someone for it tomorrow, the thing told me she 'stares' at it when it's night time."

"Eh?" May asked.

"Sigh…Never mind, just bring it to her room, then you can go play." Johnny informed her.

"Ok Johnny!" May then left the room.

The next morning was made quite noticeable to ABA, because someone had opened her window by a little, ABA decided she should sleep a little longer; she liked the feeling and wanted it to last for awhile. After about 4 more hours added to her already 8 hour rest, she woke up again, energized and feeling great. ABA stretched for awhile, allowing her muscles to wake up. She brushed her hair in the style she had it in after her bath and put back on her 'clothes', soon enough she noticed her Key on the floor.

"Paracelsus!" ABA squeaked, rushing over to it and hugging it furiously. "My good friend! How I missed your Round ness!"

"Argh!" It screamed.

"Come now, my hugs aren't that bad!"

"No, but that buckle in my side hurts!"

ABA looked down and seen that her shirt was obviously dangerous to Paracelsus' health, so she took it off. "I didn't like that shirt anyway, it was sticky and hot…" She snuggled with the Key for a few more moments and noticed her stomach growl. "I'm hungry!" She shouted, then she rushed out of her room and towards the decks, where a few of the girls were heading towards the kitchens, ABA decided to follow.

"Hmmm…your eyes don't have circles under then anymore!"

"Yeah, isn't that great? I didn't know sleep was so great! I had dreams too!" ABA smiled at the key.

"Yeah…sure is…"

As they both walked towards the kitchens, while Ky leaped down from a pole and took out a walkie-talkie. Concealing him self in a shadow.

"I found one of the eight legendary weapons Kliff!" Ky reported.

"Good! Try and get it!" Kliff responded.

"Yes sir." Then Ky began following ABA silently, ABA unaware of the Godly knight following her.
