Chapter 4. Matoya and Bikke's sexual innuendo.
-
"Well, we got everything done in Cornelia now." gushed Steve, as he looked back on their first quest.
"Yeah, it was fun." Added Nicola. "Who knows what we're going to do next?"
Steve answered. "Well, it seems that there's a Pirate invasion in Pravoka right now. And a witch seems to live nearby."
Reed spoke up. "Maybe this witch has a few powerful spells to help us save this land, huh?"
"Well, I dunno. I've heard the old hag's a bit senile." Herby responded.
"Yeah, maybe. She might have forgotten those powers..." Reed said.
Just then, the group ran into a solo Fighter.
"Hello, chaps!" Introduced the Fighter.
Everyone hmmed and hawed for a moment before introduction. "Hello to you as well." Steve said first. "I am Steve, one of the greatest Red Mages in the land!" Nicola smiled at Steve's ability to be grandiose.
She then introduced herself. "I am Nicola, an excellent, not to mention, lucky, Thief."
Reed was next. "I'm Reed."
Herby then stated his moniker. "And I'm Herby! Nice to meetcha. Who are you?"
The Fighter then mentioned himself to the party. "I am the mighty warrior, WUSSY!" (Hey, don't laugh! This is my Solo! Besides, this character Wussy! is a mighty Warrior!)
Everyone tried to stifle their laughter, but had succumbed to the fact that a 'mighty warrior' was called 'Wussy!', so they rolled on the ground laughing.
"Gimme your I.D.!" Herby added, for further comedic effect.
"Ah, you mean my Mage friends. Ah, they died." Wussy! stated sadly.
"Oh." Herby replied.
"Well, it was somewhat nice to meetcha." Wussy! ended. "If you encounter me later, please don't laugh at my name."
"OK, we're sorry." Steve said for the group. And they were off on their way again.
Soon, the party reached a cave.
"I heard this witch person lives in a cave rather than a house." Herby stated to this situation.
"Shall we enter, milady?" Steve offered his arm to Nicola in a friendly gesture.
"Yes, quite." Nicola blushed as she accepted his offer. Herby and Reed were not far behind.
After a little bit of walking, they had finally managed to enter a room. In it, a witch was stumbling and tripping about.
"Ouch!" The figure yelled.
"My eye... my eye!" The figure then cried. It was now obvious that she was a female.
"Ouch!" She screeched again.
"I can't see a blasted thing without my Crystal Eye!" She yelled. The group was startled somewhat. "Who could have stolen it from me?"
The party was significantly creeped out, but then they took the time for Nicola to loot the house, and then they fled.
Not before finding a broom, though.
Front-wards. Back-wards, anyway you see!
Such a strange spell to swish-swish-aree!
Tceles Nottub B.
Swish-Swish-Aroo!
The party was really frightened, and ran off to Pravoka.
After what seemed like an eternity of fighting and walking, the party finally reached Pravoka. They took a little nap, since a lot of the fights were brutal and nearly killed everyone. It was a miracle they came alive. They paid the Dancer 50 Gil, and took a little nap.
After their nap, it was clear that the town was pretty barren. Not many people wandered the streets. And the few that did only talked about pirates. It didn't take long for the party to find aforementioned pirates. They didn't look to tough, though. With bravry in their hearts, Reed stood up to talk to the buccaneers, though Steve almost led.
"You've got cannonballs of steel to be takin' on the Great Pirate, Bikke!"
"Hey! I happen to be female!" cried Nicola, obviously offended.
"Keelhaul 'em, boys!"
The crew was excited at a fight. "Aye-aye, Cap'n! We make their bones go crunch!"
The fight started. Reed and Nicola striked repeatedly while Steve cast support and Herby lit the crew on fire. Very soon, Bikke's Pirate Gang of Nine was reduced to no one else except Bikke himself.
Bikke, realizing there was no more fighting, apologized. He offered the Light Warriors a Ship, and swore that he'd buckle down and be an asset to Pravoka. The party forgave him, and set off on their way. Not before shopping, though.
Herby learned Blizzard and Temper spells, and Steve bought Nicola a Scimitar, which she thanked him for.
"My, Pravoka is sure expensive." Reed noticed.
"Well, might as well fight some more enemies, then." Steve noted.
"How 'bout we use our boat?" Herby suggested.
"What a novel idea!"
And thus, the party set off on their new boat, fighting creatures of the sea until they got the cash they needed.
