[spoiler=Hero Intro #1 by Andx: Christophe]

It was a marvelous day as far as Christophe was concerned. The clouds were few, the sun was bright, the wind was strong, and the upcoming MAP operation was going to be going into effect shortly enough. At this early point in the morning, about five AM, Christophe got up and got ready. He cleaned up a bit and put on a dark green version of his usual black coat and black magician's hat. His usually red and black checkered shirt remained the same however. He grabbed his staff and literally put it into his hat for storage. His white gloves on had, a deck of cards in pocket, and everything else in place, he was ready to head out on deck.

 

As of yet the ship had no person who was purely a navigator. Christophe was decent at the art so he'd been keeping the ship on course for the voyage so far. As such he expected to see few, if not none, of his crew out this early in the morning. His crew was always up and ready to go but not always as early as he was. Christophe stepped up to the wheel, looked at the nearby compass and then to the island on the horizon, and saw they were still on course. The sky was getting bright as the very top edge of the sun began coming into view.

 

It was at times like these where Christophe thought about things. For awhile now he'd been worried about his new crew. His second and current crew was the one he had formed after having his original crew crushed in an encounter with the Marines. Those had been some of the best friends of his life. He missed them all greatly and still was regularly tortured with nightmares of that battle. By some cruel twist of fate he survived and at one point had not been able to forgive himself for that.

 

But things were different now. He couldn't afford to dwell on the past as much. He had to run the alliance of pirate crews, now nearly two hundred crews strong. He had to lead the offensive. He had to worry though that he might not be connecting to his new crew as much as he would. He worried he was too distant or that they might not consider him to be their friend as much as their captain.

 

Today things were going to be exciting. A major Marine supply base was mainly the only thing occupying this large island near the Red Line in the North Blue that they were currently approaching. Info Christophe had been given was that this place was a major supply point that fed into the Marines stationed in the North Blue and the Grand Line. Several battles against the Marines had failed supposedly in part due to the back up of men and weapons coming from this point. As such Christophe had taken it upon his crew to see to its destruction. Of course, he'd have to give the details of the mission shortly. They weren't the only crew of pirates on this job and things had to be coordinated.

"I'm getting a bit ahead of myself with all my thoughts. The day hasn't even hardly started." Christophe said quietly. For now he had to wait until his crew was ready to go.

 

 

[spoiler=Hero Intro #2 by PrimalFear: Yukimura & Takumi]

Yukimura had just woke up as he stood from the cot in his room, he walked quietly over to Takumi who lied a few feet away from him in a second cot. "Get up you lazy ass, we have to prepare the crew and the ship for the upcoming battle," he said kicking the much younger Takumi. Then walking away from the bed he put on his shirt and readied himself to go out on the deck of the ship. "Lets go Takumi."

 

Takumi rolled over on the bed and muttered something to low that Yukimura couldn't understand. "Whatever give me a minute," he said back. He rolled out of bed as he stood up and stretched out his body.

 

Mean while Yukimura walked out on the deck to see his captain, "Good morning Cap, no one else is up yet?" He didn't pay much attention to his captains answer as he all ready new their was no one else up except Christophe, Takumi who he just woke up and himself.

 

Finally Takumi came out on the deck he was wearing a green shirt cutoff at the arms and a pair of tan pants and a pair of black boots. "All right Yukimura and Captain what shall we do for the moment?" With that he walked over and sat on the rail of the ship gazing out at the open water.

 

 

[spoiler=Villain Intro Post #1 by PrimalFear: Michi]

Michi stood up from his desk inside the Marine headquarters office and turned to look out his window. He had just received information from a ship waiting outside the gate with a prisoner from Impel Down. It was the long awaited Private execution of a former Pirate who's name was classified. He had sent his most trusted Admiral Gewähltes, who is not only a loyal Admiral but a good friend to Michi as well to escort the prisoner back to Headquarters for the execution.

 

Michi grabbed his Admiral robe from the chair as he turned back and headed for the door of the office. Many high ranking officers followed and escorted Michi down in the elevator to meet Admiral Gewähltes at the gates to Headquarters. Once reaching the lowest floor Michi and the officers marched out of the elevator and up the 200 yard Bridge where the Marine Headquarters Ship waited to release the criminal.

 

Behind the ship Michi could see the vast number of Ships behind it that diverted any unwanted escape attempts or the chance of the Marine Headquarters ship to be attacked. Finally Michi and the others arrived at the base of the Ship as the plank was laid down for the passengers to exit onto the Bridge.

 

 

 

[spoiler=Villain Intro Post #2 by Andx: Goldenwind]

Another Impel Down assignment. Goldenwind's favorite job as an Admiral in the Marines. This particular pirate had apparently barely been captured and had required several vice-admirals to capture and he nearly killed one in the process. Even battered and stripped of his devil fruit ability by kairouseki he still remained quite a threat. Of course he had immediately been taken to level six of Impel Down, the lowest floor reserved for only the worst of pirates. Most, if not all of the worthless pieces of trash were awaiting death penalties.

 

As Goldenwind had entered Impel Down, he was greeted energetically by a low ranking jailer. Of course that was after his initial reaction to the sight of a wolf with gold colored fur with strange blue markings wearing an Admiral's jacket like a cape. The higher ups of Impel Down seemed to enjoy scaring a new jailer each time they knew Goldenwind was to be showing up. Goldenwind let out a bit of a laugh as the jailer jumped back at his entrance. After he regained himself he greeted him and then walked off muttering something about the others and getting them back for playing that joke on them.

 

It wasn't long before the Warden himself had greeted Goldenwind and warmly welcomed him to Impel Down. The previous Warden, Magellan, had become unfit for duty roughly ten years ago and the Vice-warden left when he did. The current Warden was certainly less capable of maintaining order than Magellan had been. Magellan had even maintained order and respect after the massive escape of Monkey D. Luffy and hundreds of others. It was no wonder then that Michi wanted Goldenwind to visit so frequently.

 

It hadn't taken long to get to level six and the infamous criminal had been removed from his cell with a lot of precautions in place. All four demon guards, with their relatively new trainer, were present as were a few dozen other jailers. The criminal seemed to have sustained a severely bad beating not too long ago. No doubt to prepare for his transfer. Goldenwind walked up to him.

"So you thinking about fighting back today? Tell me whenever you do and I'll be sure to rip out your jugular for you on the spot." he said. The transfer itself was peaceful, due in part to the strong level or haki Goldenwind was letting out. Quite a few jailers were unconscious by the time they made it back to level one but it was a necessary precaution for this pirate.

 

As Goldenwind came out of Impel Down the contrast between the dark depths of the prison and the bright sky was a bit jarring. His sight quickly settled and he saw several Vice-Admirals standing at the edge of the pier; the slight breeze was ruffling his fur and the coat. Goldenwind and the Warden brought the criminal and gave the basic "We hereby transfer so-and-so to Marine custody." After that Goldenwind and the criminal stepped on deck. After he was secure Goldenwind stopped using his haki.

 

After a quick trip through the Gate of Justice and the Tub Current, the ships had arrived at Marineford. As the ship drew in a large group of Marines both at Marineford and at the various ships at sea were present. The one who caught Goldenwind's attention was his friend and the Fleet Commander, Michi Kohaku. The ship docked and the wooden board was let out. Goldenwind took the lead off the boat with the criminal right behind him. He stood in front of Michi, and looked up as his height required him to.

"This one's a fighter. He hasn't passed out from all the haki I used around him. Oh right, procedure procedure. From the custody of Impel Down, I Admiral Goldenwind Gewahltes bring this criminal, sentenced to private execution, into the custody of Marineford and of Fleet Commander Kohaku." he said doing what little he could to make a bow.

 

 

[ANBU]

Kano awakes, earlier than his usual time as he usually slept until late in the day, his Pistol laying right next to his hand. "The Captains probably already up, seems early, much too early for me, guess I should see if we have any chances to get at Marines today" he thinks to himself as he slowly gets up. Kano exits the room in his usual clothing the shirt with the folded down collar, the pants and the large sash around his waist and his Pistol in his right hand, tucking it into the edge of the Right side of the sash, so that it only just doesn't fall but is just sticking out the sash. He closes the door as he turns walking out towards deck watching around him as he wonders who else is up. Kano then steps out onto the deck recoiling slightly until he realises that the light hadn't flooded the deck as much as usual, his preference of shadows leading to him hating most from of light. Kano then turns seeing Takumi sitting on the rail watching the water. "seems like barely anyone is up now.." he mumbles to himself as he looks around yawning. Kano then looks across towards the wheel seeing Christophe standing at it. "Morning...Cap'n.." he says slowly seeming to appear to almost go back to sleep for half a second before standing up properly.

[Christian Exodia]

Alex was up the whole night before, planning strategies to attack, surprise, split up, none made since. "Well, it depends on one, WHERE we LAND. And Two, WHERE we ENTER. I think I should wait for the sight of where, where, & when. I'll ente-I got it!" Alex's finger pointed up, as if there was a light bulb over his head. He drew schematics on strategies. He will explain later. He slipped his black whole-body jacket on, but kept it unbuttoned. His wolf mask he slid on easily. He started practicing his attacks on the dummies. He put his staff in the case on the back of the jacket. He then smiled, on how much of a good job he did.

[Andx]

Yukimura, Takumi, and Kano had all gathered on deck at right about the same times. It was surprising as he hadn't expected a single member of the crew to get up and about for at least another half hour. However it was nice to see them ready, well mostly ready, to go. A little tired yes, but ready to go.

"Hello all. The three of you are up quite early considering the time. It makes me wonder if my tricks are that good that you come to see them earlier each day." Christophe said with a bit of a laugh. His feeling he wasn't connecting with his crew was probably an exaggeration of how Christophe really felt. They were always joking around.

 

"As for what we can go about doing. There's not a whole lot at the moment. The operation starts in two hours and breakfast hasn't been served yet. I'd rather formally brief everyone at once. It's more convenient and performing the same thing twice is a quite a bore if you ask me. For now, just check on the ship's conditions and wait for the others to get out here I suppose." Christophe said. He pulled out his deck and shuffled the cards around a bit. It was a little thing he did when he was bored. He then flexed the deck to the point where the other cards flew in a straight line into his other hand.

[Guest Tainted Black]

To anyone who had been looking for the ship's cook, or self-proclaimed chef, John had been in the kitchen all morning, whipping up breakfast, as per the usual. He knew what they usually said each morning about how he made something from nothing, but he was rather humble. He thought it was just simple food, nothing that any of them could not do. Still, he took pride in his work. As he finished setting up the table, he threw his knife towards the wall, before it disappeared, appearing outside to hit a bell, signifying the food was almost done. He thought, as he sat down in his seat and waited.

[Christian Exodia]

Alex heard that, & his eyes widened. "FOOD! FOOD! FOOD! FOOD!" He proclaimed, trying to get out but repeatedly smashing into the door. He eventually realized he needed to open the door to get to the epic dish John had prepared for the meal. Breakfast was okay, not as good as Lunch & Dinner, but Alex needed it to survive the morning: His training routine was a total on his body. After the first meal, Alex's personality would change. He then walked out on deck, & waited. He chuckled & said, "Hello Christophe. Do you have any food on you?"

[ANBU]

Kano looks around as Christophe joked about his tricks, he also turned back towards the door he had came through to walk onto the deck, after Christophe finished talking he saw Alex. When Alex asked about food Kano laughes slightly, "Alex, you do know that we will probably have to wait for the others to wake.. unless we're alloud to go down and have the food now..". Kano then starts walking down towards the door going to go check if John had finished making al the breakfast yet. "hmm.. I wonder which food he has decided to make us for breakfast today, doesn't matter to much since all of his dishes taste good" Kan thinks to himself as he walks.

[PrimalFear]

Yukimura looked up at his Captain, Christophe do you really think that your tricks being good is why we get us up so early? Well I think it's more that your tricks are good enough to use on us when we are asleep!!" Yukimura couldn't help but burst out laughing at his own remark, "I'm just playing Captain, of course your tricks are good and we all love to see you perform them." Yukimura stood up and looked out at the sea.

 

"Ya know Captain from here on out I doubt their will be any turning back! I believe we will bring the world into a new age where the people of this world wont have to suffer the consequences of what the government wants." Yukimura turned back to his Captain, "So think we should head to Breakfast so we can get to the briefing of our mission?"

 

 

 

Takumi was still sitting on the rail of the ship while others exited their sleeping quarters an met up on deck and some even left the deck to do odd things around the ship, making sure everything was according to plan and that nothing was wrong with the ship. Takumi overheard his Captain speak about the briefing of the mission after breakfast, and then he over heard a few other conversations between other ship mates. The only one that peaked his interest though was the one he had just heard from his Sensai and Captain.

 

"Well Sensai and Captain I don't mean to interrupt your conversation but I'm getting hungry myself, although I'm not sure if it's hungry for food or anticipation of what we have instore for us." With that Takumi stood up and walked over to Yukimura, he stood waiting for their Captain to finish what he was saying before they all headed down to eat breakfast.

[Nexev]

Father Restruct was at the bottom of the ship, lower than anyone dared to go.

 

For one thing, it was outside.

 

The father was fiddling with a couple of mecahnisms he installed there. If he could get the hull to survive pressure change easy it would be simple to sink to mermaid island or disappear from a enemy's sightlines.

 

Granted this would be easier on shore were he might not accidentally sink the ship and kill everyone on board but safety is the adversary of innovation.

 

If he started putting anything off he will never do it.

 

However, knowing the time it must be breakfest.

 

John DID promise him fried eel omlets....

 

 

Omlete or ship....

 

Omlete wins.

 

 

With a grin James attached his hook to the footholds he instaled on the ship and climbed up.
