Busy Night Part 2

They hear the sound of flapping wings from above.

Jaxon: *Looks up* Hm?

He spots a winged creature.

Creature: *Swoops down and grabs Cinnamon*

Jaxon only sees it up close for a split second, but is able to make out leathery wings, red eyes and a grin with sharp fangs.

Creature: *Flies off with Cinnamon*

Reginald: Hm? *Turns around* Cinnamon? *Looks around* Cinnamon?!

Jaxon: You won't believe me, but a bird-like thing took her.

Reginald: *Looks to Jaxon* You're right. I don't believe you. *Looks around* Cinnamon! Where are you?!

Greenbeard: Should we help him?

Bhola: It's his problem. Let him deal with it.

Greenbeard: What about Cinnamon?

Bhola: What about her?

Jaxon: Leave her, I guess. If my word's no good to him, it's his loss. *Walks away* Nocturnal, Bhola, Greenbeard. We're-

Nocturnal: *Points up* There she is.

Reginald: *Looks up* Hm...

The winged creature is flying towards the center of town.

Reginald: *Starts to follow it*

Jaxon: ... I think we're done here.

Nocturnal: Captain. We should help him. If he's on our side, he may give us an advantage over Mr. Gold.

Jaxon: ... The man's a playboy.

Nocturnal: He's not ordinary. He has devil fruit.

Jaxon: Even so...

Nocturnal: Think of the possibilities he may achieve, captain.

Jaxon: .... *Looks to Greenbeard and Bhola for help on this conversation*

Bhola: He's a jerk and we don't even know what his devil fruit power is.

Greenbeard: We should help him find her because she might be in danger.

Bhola: People are in danger all the time. Are we really going to help every stranger who has a problem?

Greenbeard: We've been barely holding our own against Mr. Gold's organization. We should try to gather all the help we can get.

Jaxon: Oh, sure. Like Hogan? Muscle-bounded oaf can't even hold his own against one drunk.

Nocturnal: This isn't about Hogan, Captain. It's about Reginald and a woman he seems worried about.

Jaxon: ... *Looks to Bhola*

Bal: ... If you're looking for the woman, she's in the sky. Not uhh... Not Reginald's woman. That uhhh... Bird-Thing. That's a "She".

Jaxon: Wait... Where'd you come from?

Bal: . . . My momma.

Jaxon: *Tick mark* NOT THAT literally!

Bal: If you're thinking about saving her, I can track it. The woman that thing took though... Something's off about it.

Nocturnal: What do you mean?

Bal: There's no life in the woman.

Nocturnal: Another with devil fruit?

Bal: Not exactly. I can't rule out she does. But it's as if she's not even human. Like... She's not real.

Greenbeard: To be fair, She seemed to be a very acrobatic drunk.

Bhola: Can we please stay focused on the subject at hand. Are we going after them or not?

Jaxon: ... Hmmmm... *Looks to the sky* ... Hmmmm... *Looks to his ship* ... Might as well. It'll be forever until I fall asleep again.

Nocturnal: I'll go start by searching the downtown. Via by rooftops.

Bal: I'll go with her. I can see about detecting her life force.

Jaxon: Good. Bhola, you, Greenbeard and I will head to the other rooftops and be ready to go when they spot them.

Greenbeard: Ay. Captain!

Bhola: *Nods and looks a bit annoyed*

Bal senses Cinnamon's life force head towards the town square.

Bal: They're heading for town square.

Jaxon: Right. You two head that way then. Greenbeard, Bhola. Hold hands.

Bhola: What?

Greenbeard: *Grabs Bhola's hand*

Jaxon: *Touches their joining hands* Jump... Tri-Warp. *The three are teleported to a rooftop of random*
