Seagulls call as a ship moves over peaceful blue waters. A pan of the boat from bow to stern reveals... Passengers strolling across both the upper and mid decks.
Blake
Blake rests her hands on the rail and stares out at the ocean. She blinks and looks over her right shoulder, somewhat startled. Two kids laugh over a joke. Blake almost smiles and turns to look back at the ocean.
Footsteps approach.
Captain: Traveling alone?
Blake jumps and grips the hilt of Gambol Shroud. She halts her action when she sees the captain of the boat.
Captain: (holding up his hands in a reassuring manner) Now, now, no threat here. Just here to chat.
Blake hesitates before relaxing her posture with a roll of her eyes.
Blake: And why is that?
The Captain lowers his arms and then twists to lean idly onto the rail.
Captain: Well, not many people travel by boat on their own. It can be quite a lonely voyage. But I found those that do tend to have the more... interesting stories.
Blake turns away from the Captain.
Blake: Maybe it's just... better for some people to be alone.
The two kids run behind Blake laughing and she gasps again, not expecting the noise behind her. She turns and blinks at them trying to reset her calm.
Captain: (laughing) Maybe, but with your paranoia, I think a few friendly faces wouldn't hurt.
Blake: Who says I'm paranoid?!
Captain: (laughing again) No one, dear, no one. I'll leave you be.
The Captain turns and walks away, then stops.
Captain: But uh, fair warning: these trips can be awfully boring.
The Captain continues on his way and Blake stares after him. Once he's gone, she turns and looks at the ground for a few seconds before reaching up and undoing her bow.
Blake: Mmm.
She holds the ribbon out over the railing.
Blake: Won't be needing this.
Blake lets go and watches the ribbon swirl in the air once before landing on the water. She turns and walks away.
As she passes inside, a hooded figure is shown to be watching her from a distance.
Beside the ribbon on the ocean, the large scales of a sea creature are seen moving just above the surface. After they pass, the ribbon is gone.
D. Sleek
Sleek and Taiyang just got home after they've bought a bunch of stuff for the house and they've also got something special from Ironwood. He told the two to give it to Yang when they got home.
Taiyang: Hey, kid. Could you...
D. Sleek: I got it!
Sleek opened the door with his right feet and saw Yang's sitting on a couch, saddened.
