What does it take to be a pirate? For that matter, what does it take to survive, prosper and become strong? Here was one adventurer, daring to dream and dive into a life of lunacy and ludicrous luxuries. Ah, the life at sea, some are fitted for it more than others. The backstabbing, cursing, roughhousing, killing, yelling, laughing, feasting, thieving and any other –ing could put of many, but not this one, oh no. Len was here, prepared to stake his life for the life at sea, and neither Poseidon, Odin, Zeus nor Leviathan would impede him.

How the hell did I get to this island? Len thought, not really expecting an answer. Well, he did have a point, sure he had a journey to start and everything, but there must’ve been grander places to begin questing right? Oh well, gotta play with the cards that are dealt… he succumbed. Looking around, he saw, nothing. Well, nothing worth mentioning at least, just the regular ol’ town with an inn, tavern, market and a collection of other useless knickknacks and buildings. Looking around again, he arrived at the conclusion that he was the most interesting thing on this island probably.

He was a bit strange though, standing around in the sun with a gray sweat shirt and sweat pants. His black hair was messy (as usual) and fell over his forehead, just barely meeting his brown eyes. With an audible yawn, he stirred his legs, and moved in small strides against the cobblestone with his black shoes. Along with the soft thud of black leather on stone, there was the dull clunk of wood on earth. What was that anyway? Actually, if you examined Len closely, very closely though, you would probably need exceptional eyesight or the abilities of Sherlock Holmes to detect this but, he was carrying a nine foot spear beside him. Ah yes, the almost famous Konpaku Kayou, glistening against the sun with its three, black tainted blades, and black-white stripe pattern. When you think about it, the spear was probably what made Len interesting anyway, at least at first glance.

“What to do?” Len hissed, as he continued moving through the quaint town. “If I plan to eventually make it there… I’ll need a crew, and a ship.”

And, was it at that very point that he decided? “Yosh! Time to form the Blitz Pirates!”

Yar, and so we begin the colorful tale of the Blitz Pirates.

Nick was a poor soul. After leaving his home of Shiropp Village, he set off to find a Pirate Crew, a crew of friendly, cool, and mostly fun loving Pirates. Nick was only 16 and all he wanted was a good Pirate life. Days...just wandering. Is there not a Pirate crew out there that I can join up with? I thought I would at least find one or two, Good Pirate crews. All hope was lost for Nick, as he slugged forward. He was on Ikimo Island, so there were people, jobs, and food...but Nick knew if he decided to stop his search nothing would go right. Eventually, Nick was back in the city, head up and was heading towards a tavern or restuarant.

Barely, but surely Nick could hear someone talking.

“If I plan to eventually make it there… I’ll need a crew, and a ship.”

Nick head rose as he heard that. His tan skin gained its color back, and its shiny tint returned. Along with that was a smile on his face. A crew...a ship. Pirates!! Nick focused his eyes on the voice, so he could go check out the crew that he was hearing about.

“Yosh! Time to form the Blitz Pirates!”

Blitz Pirates. They must be getting ready to leave, and he's gathering his crew. Nick was desperate and this was a spark of hope, and he had to take a chance. Nick then set off on foot, and followed the voice. "Blitz Pirates!!! Blitz Pirates!! Wait...wait Blitz!!! WAIT!! BLITZ PIRATES!!!" Nick yelled hoping to catch the attention of the Captain as he followed the feint voice.

But really, am I going to find anyone in this town? Len asked himself. Arriving at the conclusion, he slumped over and mumbled, “Wish I picked a livelier island…” His pace was brought down considerably, along with his mood. But, he couldn’t dillydally for long, someone was on his tail!

“BLITZ PIRATES!!!” an ominous voice yelled.

Len turned his head, a thousand thoughts racing through his head at once, until one finally registered in his head, @#&*%. Did the marines already find me out?! Their better than I thought, I haven’t even done my first pirating act! He picked up his pace, until he realized that he was standing in front of a dead end. I’ve never captured a vessel, never uncovered any sunken treasure, I’ve never even set out to the Grand Line, and then, in a burst of rage he screamed, “You won’t take me alive!”

Brandishing his trusty spear, Len stuck it well out in front of him, ready to impale and piece anyone who wanted to take his freedom. Cause, to a pirate, freedom is more important than treasure, or strength, or anything else; at least to this pirate.

Nick continued running, even though the crew he was looking for had said nothing. So, Nick was following his memory on where the voice had came from. Damn...why won't he say anything else. I have to meet this Pirates...I want to meet these Blitz Pirates. Nick thoughts ceased, but he then heard something else.

“You won’t take me alive!”

There he is again! That means...the Marines are there!! Sweet...he and his crew are probably bravely fighting Marines!! If I get there I can aid him and then he'll see my skills and let me join! Sweet!! Nick speed picked up as he followed the voice, and soon was getting close. Wierd. I don't here no cannons, swords, or anything. Maybe I missed a turn or something. No, that's not it. Maybe the Pirates have been captured by the Marines, or visa-versa. I wonder... Nick pushed his body faster as he eagerly anticipated meeting up with the Blitz Pirates. Nick Z. Tendo...member of the Blitz Pirates. Blitz Pirates infamous member...Nick Z. Tendo!! Either way when they say my name it'll sound cool!! Hehe... Again the voice was gone, but Nick still followed what he remembered. I have to get him to say something else.

"HEY!!! WHAT'S YOUR NAME, PIRATE!!! I'M NICK Z. TENDO!!! YOU'RE PART OF THE BLITZ PIRATES RIGHT!!!" Nick exclaimed. If I get a reply, then I got him.

He was expecting to hear the rumble of many feet, the cursing of the sea dogs and the oh so corny speech that marines were infamous for. He was expecting twenty, no thirty men to corner him, each of them veterans wearing their scars proudly. After all, if these marines had the audacity to scream the name of his group, and charge after him, then they must’ve been some tough bastards. Len prepared for the incoming onslaught, he gripped his spear firmly and widened his stance. Well, for better or worse…

Moments before Len broke into a sprint to collide with the incoming marines, he saw his follower. That’s right, follower, no plural! How could this be? How could a pirate of his reputation be taken so easily?! Did the marines really underestimate him this much? Well, they just sent a recruit of theirs to certain doom. After all, holding back wasn’t the plan, especially against a marine.

His pursuer was a boy, and announcing his name like that… this Nick kid was definitely fresh. “Just one?” Len said, half surprised, half annoyed. “Well, that’s me; I’m the captain I suppose. And I don’t just give out my name, especially not to dead men. Sorry kid, when you get to Davy Jones, tell him L was the name of the executioner that cut your life short.” And with a dash, Len swung his trusty spear toward the Nick kid.

The forest creaked a little in the distance and without much of a warning a few hundred multi colored birds flew from the forest. These birds few from the forest and began to swam the small port city. Peoples screams could be heard as the birds began to take all forms of shiny objects from people. They started to fly away with them back into the forest. This was so random and sudden it didn't seem to make sense at all.

Suddenly a few twenty birds came flying at you two. They started to all grab onto the Konpaku Kayou as it was shiny. They all together started to lift it up and began to take it away, that was if they where not stopped before hand would. The birds seemed to be out of there mind. There where all kinds of shapes and sizes, the birds didn't seem to have anything in common other then they where all birds. They started back to the forest where they came from, as fast as they had come. With or without the Konpaku Kayou.

Nick saw the one man and he himself was half shock and half confused. I've been chasing one man? Where's the Marines? Where's the Blitz Pirates? Who the hell is this dude, just some other guy? Nick thought as he stood face to face with him. Before he knew it Len was throwing at spear at him. A spear!! Eek! Nick's eyes widened as the spear sped towards him, and the sharp point intimidating him the most know it could easily pierce through him. "Wha!?" He said as he began to move his feet and try to dodge, but before anything happened a flock of birds came and took the spear. Nick's eyeballs nearly popped out of his head as he was saved by...mere birds.

"WHA!!!" He exclaimed seeing the man's spear taken away. Phew. I thought I would have to use the Powers of the Devil. Then a sinister grin came across Nick's face as he proceeded towards Len. "MWUHAHAHA! How do you feel now, my minions of birds have taken your weapon. Now what Mister!? Why did you attack me in the first place, huh!!? Where's the Blitz Pirates huh!!?" Nick asked throwing out question after question.

Len had his fair share of battles; he isn’t exactly blood crazy, but the exhilarating feel of knowing that you’re giving it all, clashing with an opponent, using your wits and strength, bleeding, cursing, swinging, yelling, and the silence afterwards. The sense of completion after a well fought and deserving battle, it wasn’t bliss, but it was a something. Well, right before this battle began; this feeling was stolen from him!

“What the-” Len exclaimed, as a cornucopia of collected birds, swarmed him and clasped onto his konpaku kayou. If he was more aware, maybe Len might’ve resisted the birds and grabbed his weapon from their talons, but alas, their bright colors and sudden squawking could misbalance any old fool. With a tug, the flock of birds wrestled his spear away from him, and Len was left weaponless. It took a moment for all of this to register… wait for it… wait for it… now, “WHAT THE – BIRDS?!”

Blowing by the now forgotten Nick, Len darted out of the alley, screaming,“STUPID BIRDS, GIVE ME BACK MY SPEAR!” He followed them till the end of town, constantly checking where he was going and their position in the sky. When he saw them fly over the trees of the forest, he cursed and yelled, “Oh I am SO having you guys for dinner tonight!” and dashed into the trees.

The birds flew deep into the forest till they got to a small clearing area. Well it wasn't so clear anymore. It was full of shiny things. Everything from the most useless of marbles to god pieces. It looked like a wonderland of things just scattered around, although mostly useless. The birds where dropping off the things they had found here. Checking the new things that came where strangely enough a few bears. Moles where sorting, and parrot with a monocle and a note pad was checking thing off a list sitting on one of the bears shoulders.

"Awk! 186! Awk!"

The parrot bellowed as he looked at another gold piece. The stolen weapon was atop a large pile now in the center of the sorting area.

You where not spotted yet, and you had a few good chooses. Hide in the bushes and watch, or just run out and take everyone head on.




If you stayed back at the town, there wasn't much going on. A few panicked people trying to figure out what happened but that was about it.

He ignored me...That @#&*%!! That ignorant @#&*%!! I'm gonna kick his ass!!! Nick's face became a dark red, as he was furious at the recent happening. He balled his fist up tightly, ready to unleash some pain upon Len. But, before he noticed...Len was gone. "@#&*%!! Coward!! Get back here! First, I'm gonna kick your ass for trying to kill me with your freakin' spear of death. Then I'm gonna kick your ass for ignoring me!!" Nick said as he chased after Len. Len was a reasonably amount ahead of Nick so it would be hard for him to catch. But he pursed filled with rage. That rage growing with each step seeing he had no way to vent. "GET BACK HERE YOU @#&*%!!!"

Revenge. Oh, what a powerful motive that is, especially when THE DAMN BIRDS STOLE YOUR WEAPON! Thieves, that’s what they are, gutless, cowardly, winged thieves. That weapon was special; after all, Len had it for, was it four years now? With that weapon he managed his first successful hit on… no; I’m not going to think back to that time. Len thought, interrupting his mind from further progressing into forbidden territory. But the more he tried not to think about it, the more images escaped his clutches and formed before his eyes.

Refusing to see him again, Len did the only thing that would take his attention away… jump right into a stupid situation. He darted out of his camouflage, straight into enemy territory. He breached the perimeter, but was instantly blinded by the multitude of shininess. Sparkles here, glittering there, oh when will it ever stop?! And finally, perched atop a massive pile of shiny junk, stood the Konpaku Kayou. Ignorant of the surrounding bears and other critters, Len demanded, “Give me back my spear!”

Well, animals can’t be that tough to beat, but oh no, today just had to keep on getting worse. Nick (remember Nick?) came running after him, screaming profanities and other phrases too hardcore for this friendly site. Why the hell is he mad at me? He thought, after all, these birds did save Nick from a beating, if anything he should be grateful! “Oy, I don’t know what you want, but I’ll deal with you a bit later. I have a weapon to retrieve.”

He turned his attention back to the weapon, and the animals which stood in his path, “I’m gonna have a big meal tonight!” he said with a slightly (just slightly) crazed look in his eyes.

One of the bears turned and looked at Len as if he was crazy. The bear turned to one of the other bears who simply nodded and continued what he was doing. The bear after getting the nod stood on his back legs and raised his fist to Len like a boxer. This looked very odd for a bear. The bear moved closer to Len clearly ready to take him on. He seemed to be a gaurdish person, ready to defend the Vast treasures that where hidden here. Right now he only seemed to notice Len.

The parot looked over at them and muttered something to himself before he continued counting.

"Awk, my word...Awk!"

The fight was on!

Time to choose your choses where slim. Slip past the bear, i mean how fast could he be? Or fight your way though this crowd and get your weapon back! Then again I guess you could run too.

Well Nick your not yet spotted but everything the same for you. Its a wonder with all they yelling. Either way, your chooses seem to be about the same. Stay and help fight? Maybe help the Bear? Maybe just give up and leave? You know what you want to do so lets see your chooses.

Deal with me later! We'll see who's gonna be dealing with who later. I know he better not let me get a hold of him, becasue he'll be done for. Nick finally had caught up with Len, but was blinded by the shine and glitter of the treasures the animals of the forest had found and collected. Wow. That's a lot of shiny crap. Nick then saw the spear in which Len tried to kill him with. It seems he loves that spear a lot, I guess I could break that peice of crap in half. That'll send him off crying. Nick was squenting his eyes from the bright shine of the items, so his vision was obstructed by light. He had developed a plan to slip through and take the spear and break it, but he soon took notice to something...a halted Len.

Why isn't he going to get his spear? I wonder. Is he planning something? I wonder why he's not charging like a fool...he's probably scared of these punk squirrels and parrots. Nick chuckled but with each step more things came visible. Soon, Nick noted some and his mouth dropped. "A be--" Before he completed his sentence he slapped his hand over his mouth and took a few steps back. A bear! Len is gonna have a hand full especially without his spear. Should I help him. No way, he should'nt have tried to kill me. HA, Payback is a bitch! Nick thought as he hid watching to see what would happen to Len.

Ever have the feeling where you’re between a rock and a hard place? How about a possible enemy and a bear? Yea, that’s what I thought. As it happens, that’s Len’s predicament right now! Well, one thing’s for sure, “Bear meat for dinner” Len mumbled, with a smirk on his face.

But, the fact of the matter is that Len is standing weaponless against a great, big, ugly bear. Alright, I think I can make short work of it… I’ll just need my spear. “Yosh…” And without a warning, he was off! He sprinted past the bear other creatures of the forest, scrambled up the pile of shiny (should be renamed shiny mountain) and grabbed his spear from the heap of junk. Shining brilliantly atop the miscellaneous items, Len looked like… like a hero. Except that he was sort of picking on animals… but that part will be omitted from the records anyway.

He grabbed his spear with his right hand; the smooth curve of the shaft fell into his palm without a hitch. Len looked around, and from his view he could see that he was surrounded well... time to hunt. He jumped into the air, and faced the ground so that his body was parallel to it. When he was several feet away from the bear, he swung his spear in a diagonal arc, hoping to slash the bear across the stomach, yelling, “Full Note!”

The series of unfortunate events for Len did seem rather humorous, but now was no time to joke. After all, there was a big angry bear ready to tear him limb from limb. If things where not bad enough, it appeared Nick had no intention of helping him. Not to mention that Nick had given himself away, and caused a bigger alert this time. The animals seemed to be getting a little upset. Not one human had followed but two. There could even be more. It was time to call in the big guns.

Hoping out from behind a pile of shiny objects came a kangaroo with a pair of boxing gloves on. In her pouch there was a baby with matching red gloves on. They seemed quite the contenders and now it was time to take on the intruders.

*******************
Kangaroo lvl 1
Strength: 80
Precision:0
Agility: 80
Fortitude: 10
Stamina: 30
*******************
Baby Roo lvl 1
Strength: 30
Precision:0
Agility: 30
Fortitude: 5
Stamina: 5
*******************

Len's attack would hit the bear as it turned to follow him. The bear howled out as it received the cut, its body in pain. It moved back down on all fours clearly not expecting that. It had to take a second to recover. Len was free again to choose to continue his assault or run with his new prize.




The roo was now ready to strike, however its opponent was not Len but rather Nick. The roo hopped rather quickly forward at Nick pulling back a fist. It then with a full power strike swung its fist out at Nick with the intentions of hitting him. However, this might not be what happened, it still tried. It's speed was considerable.
