"Well, every week at our family restaurant, my father would make the special 'Kitchen Sink Soup'." She knew the name was silly and she tried for years to make him change it, but he just wouldn't. "And, exactly what was it?" Shanks questioned. "That was the weird part." She told him, "People would come from all around to try it, but it was always disgusting, but it was never the same." She continued. "My father would take some of the best soup recipes he had, and mix them all together in a large pot, and call it kitchen sink." Kale laughed a bit, "I remember when I was.." She tried to remember her age, and then suddenly, "eight." continuing the story, "I finally decided to try it, and I was so mortified, that I tried to get him to take it off the menu. It was awful, cheese and...wine and I think there might have been peas." She shrugged. "It was terrible." She laughed. "Sort of like, how your move looked."

He laughed, it was interesting story and it fit for this. This could be another thing Kale could add to the list of things, that are mixed together; but shouldn't be. "Be that as it may, you still have to show me your Pirate Finale; if you want to know where to get an amazing cape like mine," He told her, grinning slightly. At talk cape, Kale's mouth fell open and suddenly, she was taking stance. "Alright, let's get this over with then!" She shouted, eager to get cape retrieving information. "Turn your foot in." Shanks pressed. "It'll give you more kick during the dash, well; assuming you planned to dash." He laughed, but Kale did as she was told.

After turning her foot, Kale took a breath and steadied herself to begin. "Alright Kale; whenever you're ready." He told her soothingly. Kale nodded simply and glanced to Shanks. Kale took off at a dash and began the move, swinging the sword, thrusting, uppercutting. It was all an awkward flurry of movements, and she really didn't like it -- but it was a finale so, she would finish, and be done. Midway through the 'attack' Kale lost her balance and fell forward, hitting the ground roughly. She groaned painfully, as she lay there; looking up at the sky. Suddenly a shadow was over her and Shanks was looking down at her. "Are you alright, Kale?"

He looked worried, and in her mildly unconscious state, she gave him a lopsided smile. "I think so." She replied, drowsily. He frowned and sat down next to her, and checked her head for any strange bumps or indentations, but found none. He figured, she'd probably just knocked her head a little, when she hit the ground. Kale coughed slightly, and turned to the side, finally being able to intake breath from having the air knocked out of her. Shank's moved and lifted her head, to allow her to breath better. "That was quite a fall you took." He told her seriously. Kale smiled, "Yeah." She murmured and closed her eyes again. Shanks watched her a moment, her head sitting on his lap. "Don't go to sleep, Kale." He warned.

Noah tried once more he took a larger running start as well as lifted his fingers from the blade seconds before making contact with Bascud's body. The kick had much more strength behind it than it had previously. Bascud fell back and hit the dirt, he seemed genuinely happy that Noah had gotten it right, as did Noah. However the smile that appeared on Noah's face was in response to the pain he had inflicted not the accomplishing of doing the technique correctly. Bascud stood up moments later, "Alright, off you go, don't be getting into any trouble." Noah took his cutlass out of the ground and sheathed it. He then went on his merry way.

Kale wasn't listening, though she was already almost asleep. Shanks frowned a bit, and shook her a bit. "Come on Kale, you've got to wake up." He demanded. "You can't go to sleep now, you won't get to learn where I get my cool cape from!" He was starting to get really worried. Horror stories about going to sleep when you had a concussion came flooding back to him, and he shook Kale harder. "Damn it, Kale!" He hissed. "Wake up or I swear; I will not tell you where to get a cape." He struggled. Kale groaned softly, and slowly opened her eyes. "But you promised..." She whispered. "As long as I finished your training..." Shanks sighed softly, "You have to finish first." He told her smiling a little at her. Kale got up and nodded, slowly. She took another breath, preparing to try again. Taking stance, she glanced towards him. "Get ready to tell me your secrets." She yelled, still feeling woozy.

Kale turned her foot in and dashed forward, preparing to begin. Shanks, almost stopped her but watched as she began. This time, as she did the moves, slashes, thrusts, uppercuts; she didn't get caught off guard and fall. This time she did it, not falling off balance, when she finished the move she wobbled uncomfortably, looking towards Shanks. "Time to pay up." She groaned towards him. He opened his mouth to speak, but Kale promptly passed out. He was there fast enough to catch her with his arm, and lay her down gently. "It was a pleasure to meet you Kale, and when you seek me out; I will gladly tell you where to get a cape like mine.." He turned and then stopped, once again looking over his shoulder towards her sleeping form; "But you don't need one to look as cool as me, you already do." He promised, and then was gone walking away.

Morgan walked through Misty peak with a smile on her face, a twinkle in her eye, and a kick in her step. She was oddly enough happy which was rare for her these days. The life of a Marine was a hard one, always in constant fear of Pirates killing you just for wandering around but today was different! She wasn't going to let anything worry her, as far as she was concerned she was invincible. She was dressed in her full Marine uniform, from her skirt to her head but she wasn't going to worry about that. She was proud of herself dammit! She soon began to whistle a tune when it was then that she saw something that greatly interested her...

It was a bar, plain and simple. Though her entire life she had never been into one and she was intrested. Well, to say she had never been in a bar would be a lie, she had been to plent of bars but that was only to arrest the occasional drunkard who just wouldn't leave. Slowly Morgan made her way towards the front entrance. At the front door there was a sign that read "The Rusty Nail" Hm, that's an interesting name for a bar... Morgan thought to herself. She was now having second thoughts about going in, like what if she attracted too much attention in her uniform, what if the liqour didn't mix well with her system?

Morgan swallowed hard as she finally made the decision. She was going into the bar. Slowly she pushed open the doors and saw before her the scum of Misty Peak. Everyone in their stared directly at her and her uniformed body. Slowly she strutted in, standing at five foot' nine she really didn't look like much to fear. She sat at a bar stool next to a man who had large dreadlocks and a mustache. Somehow she felt as though she had seen him before but she couldn't put her finger on where exactly she had seen him before, though she stared straight ahead not wanting to seem like she was looking at him.

As she sat trying not to seem too suspicious a bartender walked up to the side of her, just out of her vision. She of course didn't notice him because of the fact she was concentrating too hard on not concentrating on the man that sat next to her. The Bartender shocked her though by saying "What'll it be?" Morgan gasped and fell off of the stool head first. She quickly regained herself though and chuckled saying "I'm alright!" Aloud for everyone around to hear. The Bartender simply sighed and then said "What'll it be?" Once again though in a much more aggravated tone then he had previously used.

Morgan was about to speak but then paused s**t, what should I order... she thought but then she came up with an idea. "I'll have whatever's popular!" The man simply grunted and then said "Shot of rum it is then..." Morgan blew out a puff of air, she was so ditsy as of late it was weird. The man who she had taken notice to earlier turned to her and said "I'd be careful with that fellow. He likes to rip off young ladies such as yourself who don't have a clue what they're talking about." Morgan turned to him, fire ablaze in her eyes. " What did you say to me!?" If it was one thing Morgan hated it was to look stupid...

Unda stood in the temple holding his sword in one hand slightly in front of him. Opposing him was the red haired pirate "Shanks" who was holding his own sword. Unda needed to learn how to fight, something with a weapon and not the reckless stuff he knew. "OK shanks, ill show you my strength." Taking a step towards his teacher Unda delivered a powerful horizontal slash to shanks who parried it like a professional, but with a pull on the blade like one that was used to fighting with a saw

"Now Unda, I want you to show me a thrust." Showing Unda how to grip the sword and the stance used Shankes returned to his fighting position ready to counter. "Now, begin."
Taking a step forward Unda thrust out his right hand sending the blade point first at Shanks who again parried like a pro. Determined not to be outdone ash quickly withdrew the sword before thrusting it back at shanks only to meet similar result.

Giving a laugh SHanks continued to Parry Unda's strikes until separating them after a few blows. "Don't strike like that, pick your spot and the go for the kill."
Growling in frustration Unda raised his sword again and noticed something, Shank's guard drifted slightly to the right leaving the very edge of his body unprotected. Taking his shot Unda gave a fake to the right before spinning and delivering a powerful thrust to shank's left, missing completely.
