-------- The Island --------

Baterilla appears to be long stretched out beach in the middle of the ocean. The island is filled with palm trees and houses scattered around. There is no real city or town. It's one of the calmest islands in the ocean.

~ Sovo Beach ~

The northern beach. Many of the houses on the island are located scattered around Sovo beach. Some of them even drift in the sea but remain close to the shore.

~ Breezy Harbor ~

A small harbor on the south side of the island. It was build with a giant lighthouse so that ships wouldn't approach from the north and crash into houses.

Link chuckled a little at they got closer to the island, "well bubbles or not, welcome to paradise" he said while standing up with a grin, a soft breeze pushed past them and Link grabbed one of the oars to paddle them into Breezy Harbour

She nodded, "bubbles are still awesome.." She mumbled under her breath and looked at the island. She felt herself get a bit worried, would something go wrong again?

Link drifted the boat towards the Harbor, he maneuvered it then settled on a spot and tied the dingy down, "alright, I supposed clothes are out first objective?" he asked knowing there wouldn't be much to do on this island

Ula nodded and looked down at her dress, "that would be an idea..." she struggled to get off the dingy but managed. She looked at her surroundings and sighed; she wanted bubbles..

Link grabbed a few jewels from a barrel then filled his pockets, "we can call it a gift from your parents" he said with a grin, "I think the shop is up there" he said pointing up a street in the town

She nodded and started walking. She didn't feel so bad buying things with stolen jewels, but for her a ship was not something you should steal.

Link sealed up the barrel then joined her up the path, he grinned as he led her around a corner then stopped in front of the only store he'd seen on this island, "not very big is it?" he said still enjoying the atmosphere of the island

She nodded, "it's kinda cute," she stated, talking about the size more then anything else.

Link chuckled a little, "well I'm glad you like it, cause on this island, you're pretty much stuck with it" he said knowing she'd like what was inside more then the looks from the outside, it seemed to be how they did things here, plain on the outside but spectacular inside

She scrunched her nose, "I'm stuck with this?" She asked as she looked the outside over more. She sighed, "I guess we should go inside..?"

Link grinned slightly, "yeah... there's really not much else then this dump, but after you" he said gesturing her to the door still smiling

She raised an eyebrow at his smile and walked in. She gasped at the brightness of the store. There were things EVERYWHERE! She ran around like a kid in a candy store, looking at every single thing.

Link chuckled to himself at her reaction, he'd always loved how they did that on this island, he closed the door behind him as he walked in then walked through the store to the counter watching Ula with a grin

Ula picked out something less classy; a dress shirt, black pants, and a loos jacket-and brought them over.

"Can I get these?" She asked, then noticed a pear of boots and grabbed those too. She smiled cutely, "pleeeeeeease?"

Link looked at everything she'd picked up with raised eyebrows but when she asked if she could have them all he just grinned, "you can get what ever you like, but I'm not helping to carry anything" he said thinking how funny it would be watching her try and carry everything the find somewhere to store it on the dingy

Ula smiled, "just this!" She gestured at the stuff in her arms again, she didn't care much for stuff, she just wanted to get out of this dress.

Link smiled and looked at the stuff, he guessed at the price and put a few gems on the counter to pay for it, "there might be a change room in here as well" he suggested thinking she'd like to get changed sooner rather then later

She nodded and scampered off to get changed.

The woman at the counter laughed, "cute girl. Sister or girlfriend?" She asked as she rang him threw, noticing their similar hair colours.

Link laughed a little then shrugged, "neither, I am hoping she'll be my navigator though, but she wants to be a pirate" he said leaning against the counter, he looked over at the change rooms and wondered what pirate crew she would join

The woman looked at him funny, "no offense, but she doesn't seam like the pirate type.."

Ula struggled to get out if her dress since it was mostly wet and ruined. She slipped into her new cloths and looked herself over. She shrugged and stranded pulling her wavy hair into a ponytail.

Link chuckled a little, "I know what you mean, bloodthirsty and heartless doesn't fit her at all, but what she does is up to her, I'm just helping her out" he said remembering how she was kidnapped by that lightning pirate to probably be sold as a slave

The woman nodded and handed him change, "good luck."

Ula ran out, her hair all up in a ponytail except for her bangs, "what do you think?"

Link smiled at her as he took the belli then turned to Ula as she came running out and grinned, "well I don't think anyone's going to scared of you being a noble now, so perfect" he said still smiling

Ula rolled her eyes but giggled, she was happy to feel more mobile now that she wasn't in a wet dress, "where are we going now?"

Link shrugged and thought for a moment, "well if we're looking at getting a ship then I know Librie Island is known for many big markets and rare products, so it's probably the best place to look, but with a marine base there I doubt you'll find a pirate ship to join"

She nodded, "then lets go there?" She offered, not carrying so much about finding a crew she could be a part of just yet.

Link looked over at the girl at the counter waved as he walked to the door, "cheers, see ya next time" he called back to her, then he walked out the door back onto the streets, he looked over at Ula and added "well you may have to wait to be a pirate with all the marines, but at least you can help me pick a good ship" he sugggested

Ula nodded with a smile, "sounds fun!" She took his hand and let him lead the way.

Link smiled as they headed bad to the dingy, "alright mis navigator, which way we heading?" he asked opening a barrel for her to put things into after they'd arrived at the boat

She put her dress in the barrel and looked T the water then the sun, then back at the water, "that way," she pointed.

Link shrugged and began paddling in the direction she pointed, "so, how're the new clothes going princess?" he asked while smiling up at the clear sky

She shrugged, "cloths are cloths," she answered simply and played with the water. She remembered back to when she kissed him and wondered if he liked it at all. Did she?

Link chuckled to himself a little and thought back to what they'd been through, then he thought that maybe she could make it as a common person, he didn't know many nobles that would say 'clothes are clothes' and she'd even ignored the whole princess comment

Ula looked over at him, she wanted to splash him, but would that hurt him? "Link? Are you aloud to get wet?"

Link stopped laughing with a sigh then looked back down at her with a friendly smile, "yeah, getting wet isn't a problem, it's still water that gets me" he said thinking she had an interest in devil fruits

((still water as in large bodies of water, rain or a splash in the face doesn't effect them, they need to be submerged))

((Kk))

Ula smirked and dipped her hand in the water. She dragged it up and carried some out. She gestured it to him and giggled when it hit his face.

Link fell back when the water hit him, he began spluttering and writhing around in the back of the dingy acting as though he was about to die

Ula arched an eyebrow at him and watched. She was terrified he would die, but he said he'd be fine... So she watched.

Link stopped moving then propped himself up with his arms and looked at her, "I thought you'd at least try and help me" he said looking at her as if he was emotionally hurt

She giggled, "if you did it a little longer I would have," she smiled. She went over to him, "did I get you all wet?" She teased and kissed all the water off his face.

((kissed the water off his face?))

Link put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her back a little so he had some room, "alright, alright, I'm not going to die any time soon" he said he'd made her think he was about to then he looked up at her and smiled

((Yup.))

Ula giggled and sat back in her spot. She played with the water again. She watched it slip threw her fingers, "how much longer?" She asked, feeling tired.

Link used his sleeve to wipe his face clean then looked out in the direction they were heading and shrugged, "if you want to sleep you may as well lie down, but you're the navigator, all I know is we'll get there fast if I paddle" he said with a grin and began paddling faster to make the dingy speed through the water

Ula nodded tiredly and folded her arms over the edge of the dinghy and rested her chin on them. She kept her hand in the water to keep herself awake.

Link looked out at the horizon while their dingy sped along the water, soon he noticed a small dot in the distance, as it quickly got bigger he noticed it was an island, "well I suppose that's the island, eh Navigator?"

Ula looked over at the island and smiled slightly, "it appears so." She sat up properly and sighed.

(I posted on the island)

((Kk))
