Captain Zero sat looking at the teak wood wall across from the heavy oak desk in front of him like he was in a trance. 'But father! Learning is so boring!!' the little boy exclaimed disapprovingly. 'To bad son, sometimes we all have to do things we don't like; and in this case it would be your training, if you're going to take over my ship like you want to you're going to have to go through all the training I had to go through with my father when I was your age.' the man said. The little boy just sighed and continued molding the little forms of clay until they looked exactly how they are supposed to, and yet, his father still hadn't praised him. Zero shook his head to free himself from the memory that had overtook his consciousness; this happened a lot when he was all alone on a quiet ship. All his men had gone out to the tavern of the small town they docked in, no doubt they are being rowdy and drunken buffoons. Zero leaned back in his big chair and closed his eyes again, his feet on the desk 'Might as well sleep since there is nothing else to do' The next day Zero awoke to the moaning and groaning off his crew, clearly they were still hung over and tired from last night; 'That is what they get for not knowing how to control themselves' he sighed softly to himself as he slowly got up from his chair and Kuro flew to his shoulder as if being beckoned by some imaginary voice. "It is time to do your rounds Kuro, go see what is up n the ship, tell the bumbling idiots to quiet down and get back to work, and make sure you search the ship for anything out of the ordinary. Got it?" the captain belted out. 'Your wish, is my command Lord Zero' Kuro spoke straight to his mind this time as he flew off to do what he was told.
Kuro flew around belting out orders to the lackeys whom seemed surprised that the bird was talking to them instead f the captain like he always does. He flew low into the corridor of the ship which lead directly to the hull of the ship. SQUACK! the loud noise came from the bird as if trying to scare off some invisible intruders on the ship.
