"Gah?!"
Vorian didn't respond. He was out cold.
"Vorian??"
Stephanie knew he was right. She needed to find land, and soon.
She glanced over the side, and almost stopped. Was that weed? She staggered to the wheel, and grabbed it. The kelp pushed them off the reef, into the deeper water. She glanced at it, wondering whether she should say thank-you. But she glanced around, searching desperately for some land that might be close. She spotted a small, dark lump on the horizon. Though she couldn't tell how far away it was, or how large the land could be, but she made her way toward it. The wind started blowing fiercly. It was almost as if some invisible force was helping them...
The lump became bigger much quicker than she had expected; they were there in less that twinty minutes. All the while, the ship began to slowly sink.
All the crew-mates from lower decks had come to the top, escaping the water. Some ran around the deck, pumping water and trying to make the ship go faster. Others yelled at Stephanie. Others glanced at Vorian, unsure of why he was there.
They made it to the island just as the ship was about to go under. The capitain gave the order to take the ship right to the shore, where they would beach it. It wouldn't be able to float.
Then the pirates converged on Stephanie.

Vorian stood slowly, his eyes a pulsing bright red and his fangs threatening to overtake his chin.
"Well, that took a bit more out of me than expected."
Vorian felt for his sword and realised he had left it in his room. He sighed and looked meaningfully at the captain, then looked threateningly at the converging crew. Vorian slowly raised his right hand as he stepped in front of Stephanie. His nails lengthened and sharpened to a point, gleaming in the sunlight.
"No one is to touch the girl, she is under my protection."

(the captain was made aware that vorian is a vampire when he contracted vorian.)

(Aaah, I was wondering why he'd just go out and make himself known :P)

Stephanie blinked. She stared at his nails. Now this was something equivalently weird to last night.
She stared at the back of Vorian's head. She hadn't expected him to do anything about her punishment. She'd stepped in on him and his... workings last night anyway. Wouldn't it have been easier just to get the one that threatened his position out of the way?
Though she knew this, she was smart enough to keep her trap shut.
She looked past him, wondering what the captain's reaction would be to this interuption from this strange man.

(I suppose I'll play the captain until we can get someone to be him. Basically imagine captain barbosa.)

The captain smiled and laughed, great guwaffs (sp?) that caused him to bend over with their force. When he was finished he cleared his throat and tried to keep the mirth from overtaking him again.
"Alright, Ye best leave the lass be, I payed a hefty sum for that man. He's to be our new ace in the hole should we ever come up against somethin..."
The captain paused here for emphasis,
"particularly tricky."
The captain smiled again and looked at Stephanie.
"And the lass does seem to be havin many redeeming qualities, the foremost being that she is one of the best ship's navigators to ever sail these here seas. So I suppose I could be lettin this slide,
The captain pointed at stephanie and gave her a stern look,
"Just this once."

(LOL! Okay :D and I think you mean guffaws :sarcasm: <-- that's immediately what I imagined xD)

Stephanie cocked an eyebrow. aside from the uproarious laughter, that was not the answer she'd been expacting. The captain usually ignored her for all's worth, and now he was complimenting her? How strange.
But she relaxed her face into what she hoped was remorse.
"I deeply apologise for what happened, Captain," Stephanie said solemly, "I assure you it won't happen again."
"Aye," someone said, "But we'll have no other time to expect this from thee, do we? We shan't get off this accursed island with a half-drowned ship!"
The crew grumbled in agreement. Stephanie frowned. That was a good point. She glanced at the ship's hull. It was mangled, the thick bottom was ripped and ragged, with great chunks missing in some places. It was a wonder that it hadn't sunk within two minutes. They wouldn't be able to get off the island without help.

(... Ok, let us discuss plot. I have no friggin clue where to go from here. ^^; )

(Erm... I have no idea... o_O Maybe if I don't get Twilight to join, we can send requests to all our friends. If that doesnt work, then we can make up other characters and see if people will take them on. If nobody does, we can just choose random characters and play them. Any of that sound good?)

(*thumbs up* Alright. let us send requests so our friends.)

(Okeedai ^-^)

(K, here's my progress: I sent a mail to 5 ppl, 1 I havent heard from, 2 arent interested, One is interested an might join, the last I sent her profile to you.)

((AWESOME!!! xDDD Now the story might actually get somewhere! xD
But first we have to get off 'this accursed island'... -.-))

~Gylfie's intro~

As the shipwrecked crew camped around a dimly lit fire, the call of an owl could be heard in the distance. But this was no ordinary call and definitely no ordinary owl either. The owl had shiny silver & white feathers, sapphire blue eyes and a moon shaped crest on her beak. This owl was indeed the legendary Guiding Owl, Gylfie and as her call echoed throughout the island a change began within.

((YAY Hi, Twilight!! xDDD))

Stephanie, her back to the fire and a few paces away from the rest of the crew in self-imposed exile, glanced up at the trees as she heard a sound. It sounded sort of like an owl... just not quite the same.
Vorian was somewhere out of Stephanie's line of sight, but she could tell that he wasn't near her. She was glad; what she needed now was some well-deserved alone time. She may have been a pirate, but even a pirate could feel the horrible guilt of having done something so wrong as to the possibility that people who trusted her had almost been drowned in the ship that she had been controlling.
Stephanie listened for the owl again, but no further calls issued.

Vorian stood in a clearing, the moonlight shining on his pale skin. He looked like a statue molded by a very talented artist. This illusion was accented by the fact that vorian was as still as stone. He wore nothing and his long black hair was unbound, flowing across his shoulders and back, shining eerily in the moonlight. Vorian was hunting, his pointed ears were intently listening for the sounds of large game.

Just before the final stages of the change were completed, Gylfie picked up the scent of a hunter. But it was too late, she had changed into her human form and was sure the hunter would have picked up her scent already. Taking cover in a near by cave, Gylfie waited for the snowy white human features to subside and be replaced with her exotic tan skin, jet black hair and sapphire blue eyes.

((ERG I have youth activaties now =_=
You two have fun! ^-^))

Vorian suddenly caught the scent of a large and powerful creature. He took a few seconds trying to identify it. Owl? no, human? His interest was caught, until he identifed the subtle, soft aroma of the creature. He sighed and turned his attention elsewhere.
"Female..."

Cautiously, Gylfie walked out of the cave and towards her nest where she had gathered some human clothes. Once she was covered, she set out in search of the shipwrecked crew, but also keeping one eye out for the hunter.

The fire suddenly sparked high. Stephanie looked back at it, startled. Most of the crew were snoring by now. The fire had been left to burn out. But now it was picking up again. How strange.
Stephanie scanned the sleeping figures, but she didn't see Vorian. Maybe he was... eating.
She shifted back into her position, her back becoming warmer from the new fire. At least there was one comfort in ebing alone: You had no one trying to steal your warmth.
Her stomach grumbled. Again.
"How I wish I had a sweet apple..."

Yukina yawned as she wolk up. Streaching she looked around her small hut that she had made for herself over the years.Going outside she looked around .Then blinked.She could smell ne comers to the island. She growled. Did every loss ship have to crash here and desterb her peace?Then another sent caught her attion."another vampire?",she said then sighing she walked along the deep fringes of the island. Following the sent of the new commers.She came across them , all huddeled around a camp fire. Loking around she jumped up into a tree.Watching them.

Stephanie had the sudden feeling that she was being watched. She didn't look around though; that was always a give away. Without moving her head, she carefully scanned the trees again. Maybe the owl was closer than she thought.
Then she caught a flash of movement. What was it? She could hardly see it; the forest was beginning to fog up. But it looked like... a person?

Yukina , growling quitly hopping down she walked towards the group."what are youdoing here!",she demanded fircely.Then looking up sshe spotted some of the ship and growled.. "let me guess, went off course?",she asied as she was suddenly sitting on a bolder on the other saide of the camp fire.

Stephanie stared at the girl. She was asking what they were doing here? What the heck was she doing here??
Stephanie waited, but nobody spoke. So she answered.
"Can't ye tell? We're shipwrecked."
"Aye, and it be because of that lass's lack of concentrated that we be here!" Someone growled. People grumbled in agreement, as usual. Stephanie needed to find who that annoying voice belonged to and wring their neck.

"well , i can give you suplyes , then you can get off my island",she streaching.She then looked as the fog rolled in."but wait till morning",she said then looked at Stephanie."so , can you tell me were the other vampire is...."

Stephanie blinked. "Vampire?"
Maybe she meant Vorian; he was the only strange one she knew about.
"Er... If you mean Vorian..." Stephanie looked around the small camp. Vorian hadn't come back. "I don't think he's here..." Stephanie turned back to the girl.
"What's a vampire?" Stephanie asked curiously.
