Taka's POV
I continued to explore the ship, asking people what they were doing, if they needed help, if the job was hard, if they liked
their job, ect. They usually didn't like it, so they would try to hit me. But thankfully, unlike my brother, I'm quick. I can beat Rock Lee sen-sei to the Hokage's mountain and back. I worked on it for so long I neglected Strength. I can't lift even a small bolder.
"Hey, hey Reaver!" I called to Reaver that was looking to the distant land.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Are you really the best shot in the world?" I asked.
"Well, I am." Reaver laughed.
"Hey, hey Reaver!" I called again.
"Yes little Taka?" He replied.
"Are you possibly the best shot that ever lived?" I asked.
"Well...You could say that, since it's true!" Reaver gloated.
"Hey, hey Reaver!" I yelled.
"Yes?" He questioned once again.
"My brother said you have this awesome gun called the Dragon Roaster 84." I commented.
"Dragon Stomper 48," He corrected. "Full speed! If we make good pace we will be at Ferrelden by Dusk!"
"Hey, hey Reaver!" I beckoned.
"What is it now!" He asked annoyed.
"Where's Hammer and Garth?" I asked.
"Hammer's up North in Ferrelden somewhere and Garth is still in Samarkland." Reaver answered.
"Hey, hey Rea-" I began.
"THAT'S IT! SHUT UP! OR I SHALL SHUT YOU UP FOREVER!" Reaver yelled.
"If you wanted me to stop, you should've said: 'Taka, stop.'" I said. I walked away from Reaver. I climbed up the mast. I sat on the sail, I looked to the land.
"Big brother, if you managed to save Albion. Can I manage to save Ferrelden?" I questioned myself. Sure I looked like my brother. I had silver hair, blue eyes and pale skin, just as he. But we were very different. Takashi wore simple clothing, a tee shirt and cargo shorts, I wear a tee shirt under a brown vest and brown pants. (Um, Takashi's look as changed as of recently) Takashi can control himself, he does not obey anyone for a bad reason, he is somewhat harsh, gets angered easily and shows it with violence. I obey every order, every favor, every command that does not involve evil, I am kinder
than Takashi, more gentle and I do not get angered over something small.
"People expect so much of me, because of you." I spoke.
Yukitaka's POV
I opened my eyes, I was in a hut.
"Oh, so you awaken, the second of your fellows." a female voice said. I turned to a woman. She had black hair tied up, pale skin and purple, somewhat revealing, clothing with feathers.
"Yes. I am Yukitaka. A Rouge-Mage. Yes they exist, I'm not telling you how I became one though." I said.
"I wasn't planning on asking, I am Morrigan." She introduced.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"The Koracori Wilds." She replied.
"You saved us didn't you?" I asked. (Yukitaka's 12, forgot to mention)
"My mother did actually, you should thank her. Oh, and your friend is awake, he's outside." Morrigan said.
"I'm sorry, I know neither of these people, we met while fleeing. All I know is that the knight called the woman Briar." I explained.
"Well, nevertheless the man would still want to see you, he's outside, quite worried about his female fellow." She said pointing to the door. I nodded I pushed open the door.
"Will she be alright?" The knight asked, looking very worried.
"For the fifteenth time: YES!" An old woman exclaimed.
"Hello." I spoke. They both looked at me.
"Oh you've awaken." The old woman commented.
"Yes, I have. Knight, we have not been acquainted yet, I am Yukitaka, Rouge and Mage of the Village of Frost. The village that fell to the Darkspawn demons." I cursed.
"You want to kill them too? Well, I'm Alistair, an ex Templar. The woman that was with me is Briar, a Mage." Alistair explained.
"A Templar and a Mage together? Isn't that sacrilegious?" I asked with a sly smile.
"Well, yes she's a very pretty Mage but we're only friends! Partners really! But, I am really worried about her. Will she be-" He began.
"YES! Now ask again I will turn you into a frog and keep you like that until Briar wakes up," The old man threatened. "And I am Flemmeth."
"And if Alistair is a frog will Briar have to kiss him for him to turn back human?" I chuckled.
"That actually is a good idea." Flemmeth smiled.
"No, no, no! No me-turning-into-a-frog-and-Briar-kissing-me-to-turn-back spell!" Alistair exclaimed. Flemmeth chuckled along with me.
"Don't worry, so long as you don't ask again I won't turn you into a frog." Flemmeth laughed. Alistair sighed, he was obviously worried about Briar.
Sparrow's POV
"Full speed ahead! Onto the shores of Ostagar!" Reaver yelled.
"Funny, weren't the Wardens supposed to meet us?" I asked.
"Yes, maybe they're running a bit late since we're running ear-" Reaver began. That was followed by a loud noise that sounded like stomping feet. I looked up at Reaver, Taka was hanging on his torso climbing to his head. Reaver struggled
to make him let go. Taka reached his head and looked out to the shore.
"OOOO! Is that Ferrelden?" He asked excitedly.
"Yes Taka, it is Ferrelden." I giggled.
"You can get a better view up here than on the mast. Reaver, can you tell me the secrets of being tall?" I asked.
"I'll tell you...IF YOU GET OFF MY HEAD!" Reaver exclaimed. He began to flail his arms for Taka to get off, Taka finally let go.
Taka's POV
"Ok, you must not hop on people, first of all it's rude, second if you want to be tall you can't." Reaver explained.
"Why?" I asked quizzically.
"Because if you were tall and hopped on a person they would find it most uncomfortable." Reaver grumbled. I got my palm out and made a hand sign. Out of my hand popped a apple.
"Sorry, have this." I said. Reaver took the apple. He stared at it for a moment, he looked how red and firm the apple was. He looked at me and I smiled. He hesitated at first, but he then took a small bite. He looked at the apple again. He smiled and he gingerly took another bite, a bigger one. He continued until what was left of the apple was a thin core.
"How do you do that?" Reaver asked, pleased with the apple he had eaten. I smiled, Reaver liked me better than he liked Takashi at first.
"It's a special technique, or spell as you call it that few of the Haru clan are born with. Well, even though my father's from a different branch. I inhered the chakra nature. It combines Wind, Earth and Water. The wind represents the seed being
carried, the seed finds a new home in the earth and the water nurtures the seed to have it grow." I explained.
"I asked how you did it not some story told for generations by your family. Drop anchor! Ready the boats! And Taka could you-" Reaver began. I tossed him another apple.
"Thank you." He said, he took a bite once again. I went onto a small boat with Sparrow and Reaver and a few other pirates.
"So, how much longer will it take?" Sparrow asked.
"45 minutes, 35 if we're lucky." Reaver calculated.
"That takes too long," I exclaimed, I made a hand sign. "Wind style, spinning gust!" I went to the back and held out my hand. The tiny boat went faster than a jet ski.
"TAKA! SLOW DOWN! WE'RE GOING TO CRASH INTO THE LAND!" Reaver yelled. I looked ahead. We were VERY Close to land.
"Wind style! Sonic wave!" I yelled. A sonic boom was sent forward, we stopped.
"That was exciting." Sparrow laughed. We all stepped off the raft. We searched around with Reaver's pirates. No people to be found.
"Where in Avo's name is everyone?" Reaver asked.
"I don't know, maybe-" Sparrow began.
"DEMONS! DEMONS!" a voice yelled. Several of Reaver's pirates were being chased by deformed, demonic creatures. Reaver quickly pulled out his pistol and so did Sparrow. I reached into my pouch. I pulled out a bag full of plant seeds. I threw one to the ground.
"Plant Style, Blade of Nature!" I yelled. From the ground sprouted a katana, it's hilt was gold and covered in vines. I ran up to the monsters, I slashed them quickly, not slicing them into pieces but cutting the skin. Reaver shot heads like no tomorrow, Sparrow used various spells, some Takashi nii-chan told me about. The pirates fought as well, some were killed by the stronger ones.
"Plant style, binding vine thorns!" I yelled. Vines protruded from the ground, they tied the enemies and stabbed them with large thorns.
"Where are the Grey Wardens?" Sparrow exclaimed. We fought our way to the camp at Ostagar. Or what was the camp. Everything was torn, dead bodies everywhere.
"Did, did the Grey Wardens, did they..." I spoke.
"They were attacked." Reaver sighed.
"Maybe some managed to escape, let's head up North." Sparow suggested. We searched the camp getting everything we needed. Some bronze, silver, gold, potions, injury kits ect. We headed up North.
Briar's POV
I slowly woke up, I felt sheets against my body. I saw the woman earlier, from the Wilds, Morrigan I think.
"Oh, finally awake? It's been a day and a half. Your friends is outside he was worried about you." Morrigan explained.
"What happened to the darkspawn? The war? The King?" I asked.
"The darkspawn took over, they won the war, the king is dead. The ones who were supposed to attack retreated." Morrigan explained.
"That stupid, ugh. I wish to see Alistair now." Briar sighed.
"Oh, and a child, a Rouge-Mage he calls himself, is with him. Named Yukitaka, he helped you get out of the tower." Morrigan added. I quickly exited the hut, I saw Alistair staring out into nowhere and the boy with him.
"Alistair." I called. Alistair turned to me.
"Briar! I'm so glad your ok!" Alistair exclaimed.
"He was so worried." Flemmeth said.
"Indeed, so worried Flemmeth here threatened to turn him into a frog." Yukitaka laughed.
"No turning my friend into a frog." I laughed.
"Listen what will we do?" Alistair asked. I pondered for a moment, what will we do. What will two Grey Wardens and a Rouge-Mage do? Then it hit me.
"The treaties!" I yelled.
"Yes! Dwarfs, Elves, Mages! We can have the trendies for it! We can make an army! And I remember something Duncan was talking about, Heroes from Albion! They were supposed to have come today! Who knows where they are..." Alistair sighed.
"Maybe we can find them." I suggested.
"We may, they're supposed to dock near Ostagar...They would look for us, we could run into them." Alistair said.
"That is possible." Yukitaka added.
"Mother the stew is boiling," Morrigan said walking out of the hut. "Shall it just be for us, or will we have 3 guests for the evening?"
"Morrigan, go with them." Flemmeth began.
"Such a shame-WHAT?" Morrigan yelled.
"I have trained you for it, you are ready." Flemmeth said.
"What?" Alistair also exclaimed.
"I think we should just get this underway." I said.
"I agree with Briar, now's not a time to argue." Yukitaka explained. We all agreed, Morrigan went to get her things. Then we were off. Yukitaka, Morrigan, Alistair and me.
