Hi and happy fall :3

I read your fic about the dancer yuu and absolutely loved it! Could I request a yuu with an interest in poetry and baking with Azul, Jamil or Malleus? You could often find them singing to Frank Sinatra while making treats! Feel free to ignore and I hope you have a pleasant day 😁

~You guys are so sweet~

I don't know how to fit poetry and singing but I can see what I can do.

Three Times fem!Yuu was caught by surprise

Ramshackle does have a kitchen, its not big but it was cozy. Yuu had put a lot of love into keeping it stocked with flour and spices. Grim had his several bowls on the counter for his meal times, each with a different design. Grim was very spoiled because Yuu made his every meal and snack.

"My henchmen makes the best food ever! She even cooks better then Tray and Jamil!" Grim boasted as he ate his lunch especially made by Yuu.

His tuna sandwiches were cut in cute cat heads, with beautifully glazed mini croissants along with a fruit parfait. With it was a little note from Yuu.

"Be good. For gods sake be good. Love you!"-Yuu♡

The word got around and many people wanted to try it. While Ace and Deuce could play the best friend card others had to take different routes.

○•Azul○°

Azul wasn't able to ask Yuu directly but he wanted to eat at Ramshackle. Instead of being direct he asked the tweels to help him.

Jade and Floyd would remark on how morose Azul has been and how he has lost his taste for most sweets. Azul was hardly eating now.

Yuu of course was distressed to hear this.

"Poor Azul! Is it something to do with him being a mer?" Yuu asked innocentlyvwith her head tilted slightly like a puppy.

"Yes, he's withering away as we speak. At this rate we may have to return to sea for the sake of his health." Floyd said holding back a laugh.

Yuu bought it immediately because they know nothing about mer physiology.

Jade suggested that the best way to help Azul is trying someone else's cooking.

Yuu offered to invite the Octotrio to her home for dinner. She would prepare something great for them.

Yuu set to cooking as soon as she gathered ingredients.

Azul hated healthy food so no salad.

Wait a minute.

THAT'S PROBABLY WHY HE'S SICK!

"Those eels have probably been letting him eat whatever he wants and now he can't eat!" Yuu yelled as she started cutting chicken.

Almost immediately she switched up the menu. Ratatouille, baked marinated chicken, and for dessert as a treat, tiramisu.

Azul won't be enthusiastic, but he won't have a choice

The Octotrio arrived around 6 pm as Yuu was mixing the tiramisu. She was too distracted to hear Grim opening the front door and letting her guest in or hear the footsteps headed to the kitchen.

"Somewhere beyond the sea

Somewhere waitin' for me

My lover stands on golden sands

And watches the ships that go sailin'"

Yuu hummed as she poured the coffee mix over the final layer and grabbing a piping bag.

Azul wanted to originally greet her but after watching her focus on her cake, he didn't want to interrupt.

It was a cute song.

Somewhere beyond the sea

She's there watchin' for me

If I could fly like birds on high

Then straight to her arms, I'd go sailin'

Yuu frosted the cake as she sang. When she tuned to grab the cocoa powder she shrieked.

Azul looked like a dark shadow as he lingered in the doorway and had spooked her.

"Sorry! Sorry!" Azul held up his hands defensively as she screamed.

"DONT DO THAT!" Yuu yelled trying to calm down. "Azul, you could have just come in."

"I didn't want to interrupt you." Azul wanted to sound apologetic but couldn't manage it. Her face was a pretty shade of pink just like a shrimp with the size to match. Floyd was onto something.

Despite the food not being his usual fair Azul relented and found it being pretty good. Even if it was mostly veggies. When the coffee cake was served Azul finally got to eat something he really wanted. If he had to suffer eating nothing but greens again for Yuu's desserts he'd do it again.

Fortunately or unfortunately Yuu would be taking special interest in all of Azul's meals from now one.

You know what they say: "Men live longer when a woman is in charge."

《Jamil》

Jamil didn't try anything underhanded to taste Yuu's cooking. He didn't even need to say much.

"I'm trying a few new recipes. Do you want to come to the Scarabia drom to help?" Jamil asked as they packed up their books after class.

"I'd love too!" Yuu smiled excitedly as she practically dragged Jamil off to the dorms.

Jamil was caught off guard but relented since he was used to this from Kalim. However holding Yuu's hand wasn't something he was used too. It felt warm like the sun on a breezy day.

Yuu immediately took over the Scarabia kitchen as they began prepping.

"Let's try making baklava or jam rolls." Yuu pulled out the mixing bowls as she watched Jamil sigh and grab the eggs from the fridge.

He wanted to be slightly annoyed by her but he found her excitement endearing. She really enjoyed cooking while Jamil thought it was just a chore, something he had to do.

The two carried on as Jamil focused on making dinner and Yuu on her desserts. Every so often their hands would brush against each other to grab something and breaking the bubble of their own worlds. It was harder to focuse but eventually they silently worked together.

Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

If you can use some exotic booze

There's a bar in far Bombay

Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away…

Yuu sang under her breath as she rolled out dough. Jamil couldn't hear her at first bu his ears picked up a whisper.

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru

In llama-land there's a one-man band

And he'll toot his flute for you

Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue

Okay now he could hear it over the sound of the samosas he was frying. When he looked up he could see Yuu very focused on her buns as her tongue poked out trying to get it just right.

Once I get you up there

Where the air is rarefied

We'll just glide

Starry-eyed

Once I get you up there

I'll be holding you so near

You may hear

Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Yuu looked so cute as she cooked.

Jamil was so distracted that he didn't notice his samosa were starting to burn. He panicked when the smoke caused the fire alarm to go off and there was alot of yelling.

Yuu tripped and long story short a bowl of frosting landed on her head. It was a mess.

As mad a she was at first Yuu burst out laughing as Jamil frantic tried to stop the alarm.

" So the new recipe was harder then you thought?" Yuu laughed.

Jamil turned to see her on the ground in her own sorry state and couldn't help laughing himself.

"Speak for yourself. Those buns better be worth it." Jamil said taking a towel to wipe the fosting off Yuu's cheeks.

They were in the end but next time they would be more careful in the kitchen.

☆Malleus☆

Yuu had been concerned for the welfare of the students of Diasomnia after seeing Lilia cook. Whe mix up sugar and salt and didn't preheat the oven. She started a crusade to help the poor souls who had to eat Lilia's food.

It stated with Yuu whining that she made too much pasta last night and it would go to waste but Ruggie was somehow summoned from the ether and happily took it off her hands. Yuu swore that last time Ruggie was at her dorm she had stuffed him like a pig and feed him until he begged her to stop. ( RIP Ruggie, Yuu's grandmother instincts are stronger then Trey's)

After that Yuu would invite Diasomnia members to dinner but the invites got lost or Grim burned them because he didn't want anymore guests.

Yuu's last plan was to leave baked goods in goodie bags around the dorm. Unfortunately cookies and cupcakes popping up at random doesn't make people want to eat them. Unless your one of the more unhinged students on campus. Ruggie, Ace, and Floyd began hunting down the treats. Which lead to a race among students to get as many as they can like a scavenger hunt. Rook took the hunt part too seriously and used the sweets as lures.

Malleus became aware of the the hunt when he found a bag of cookies inside a gargoyles mouth. It had a note inside.

Homemade cookies are sweet to eat

Fun to bake and good to eat

I hope these few will bring you cheer

To last long after they dissappear

Malleus was fascinated by what he believed to br a human tradition or part of a holiday. He began finding more of the goddie bags and collected each of the poems. He went as asking everyone in the dorm for their bags so he could collect them all.

He boasted about having the biggest collection as he talked about the cute drawings that were written on the papers that were clearly meant for him.

They say life is unfair and I know it's not true

Because I made cupcakes and they are just for you

His curiosity lead him to searching for the bandit that was leaving these treats everywhere.

One night he spotted a figure leaving a brightly colored bag in the mouth of a gargoyle.

"Excuse me?" Malleus called from behind.

The figure jumped in surprise as their basket dropped to the ground.

Malleus bent over to pick it up and tired to apologize to scarring them he looked up the recognized those eyes.

"Good Evening Miss Yuu. I didn't mean to scare you."

"OH, It's only you! I'm glad it wasn't a monster." Yuu sighed in relief.

"Is a monster after you?" Malleus asked concerned now "Perhaps you should walk with me in case it tries to grab you."

"Don't say stuff like that. What if something does show up?" Yuu said bitting her lower lip in worry.

Malleus didn't respond wondering if she forgot who she was talking to.

"What are you doing here. Did you perhaps wish to meet me here to walk it me instead of at your dorm?"

"Oh no, I was just putting more cookies out. I remembered that you always come to this spot during your club activities so I wanted to leave something here for you. Ace and the others keep finding all my other spots. Cater is making it worse because he keeps posting about what spots he's found." Yuu pouted as she slung her basket from her hand to the crook of her elbow.

Malleus was shocked but it melted into warmth as he realized what she was actually doing.

"So you wanted to give these to me?" Malleus asked fondly.

"Yeah, but every plan I make gets interrupted." Yuu said still pouting as she counted her remaining bags.

"Then why don't you just give them to me directly?" Malleus smiled teasingly taking the cookie bag from the gargoyles mouth.

Yuu opened her mouth to respond before immediately shutting it. Her face turned red as she realized how needlessly complicated she had made this.

Malleus laughed at his child of man who came up with the oddest little schemes. She was too cute.

Even the note she left was adorable.

Life is like a thorny rose

Not perfect but always beautiful

Pirate starters

"Avast, matey! You be lookin' for adventure on the high seas?"

"I seek the thrill of the open ocean and the treasure that lies beneath."

"Care to join me on this grand voyage?"

"I've heard tales of a legendary pirate captain who roams these waters. They say he's ruthless and cunning."

"This ship is our ticket to freedom and fortune."

"We'll sail together, facing the perils of the deep as one crew."

"You have my loyalty, captain. I'll stand by your side, ready to face whatever challenges come our way."

"Together, we'll conquer the seas."

"There's a storm brewin' on the horizon."

"We must prepare the ship and batten down the hatches."

"Aye, the seas can be merciless, but we've weathered storms before. We'll navigate the tempest and emerge stronger on the other side."

"They're sailin' in our territory. We can't let 'em trespass without a fight."

"They'll soon learn that challengin' us comes at a high price. Let's teach 'em a lesson they won't forget."

"I've got a map that leads to a hidden treasure island. But we'll need a skilled crew to help us navigate the traps and claim the loot."

"Let's chart our course and seize that treasure."

"You've got quick reflexes with a sword. Care to show me a few moves?"

"I've heard whispers of a fabled sea monster that lurks in these waters. They say it's as big as a ship."

"The legends speak of a creature that strikes fear into the hearts of even the bravest pirates. But fear not, we'll face it together, with cannons blazing."

"The constant danger and the code of the seas weigh heavy on my conscience."

"No shame in chartin' a new course."

"Is it the thrill, the freedom, or the quest for riches?"

"We've captured a merchant ship, and the crew is beggin' for mercy. What shall we do with 'em?"

"I'm so hungry," Luffy whined, hanging his head on the edge of the boat.

"When the hell are we gonna reach land anyway?" Zoro groaned as looked in the distance.

"Who knows? We're just sailin' on the wind and the waves, going where they take us. We might not ever even reach the land. Nah, I guess we will someday," Luffy sighed.

"That someday better be today. 'Cause if I don't get some food soon, I'm gonna resort to eating some people. Lookin' at you, Zoro," you groaned from your spot sprawled out on the floor, side-eyeing the green-haired man.

He just scoffed and looked away from you, but you could've sworn you saw something red on his cheeks.

"Don't you find it dumb that someone trying to be King of the Pirates doesn't have a single navigational skill?" Zoro asked Luffy, furrowing his eyebrows.

"Not really. I just drift around. What about you? Aren't you some famous bounty hunter who's sailed the seas?" Luffy asked.

"He has a point," you chimed.

"I don't have any recollection of ever calling myself a bounty hunter. I set out onto the open sea in search of just one man, but then I couldn't get back to my village. By that point, I had no choice but to go after pirate ships to earn a living," Zoro answered, looking up into the sky.

"Oh, I see. So you're just lost," Luffy said, still staring down at the water.

You snickered.

"Hey, don't put it like that!" Zoro exclaimed, slamming his foot on the boat and making it rock.

Since you were on the ground, you got thrown up into the air and landed on a certain someone's lap.

"Bastard! I could've fallen off the boat," you growled in Zoro's face, furrowing your eyebrows.

You expected him to yell back at you but that redness came back to his cheeks and he looked away from you again.

"Get off," He grumbled.

You suddenly realized your position, sitting on his crotch, and your cheeks burned as you quickly crawled off.

"Your fault for rocking the boat," you grumbled under your breath as you looked away from him.

That's when you saw Luffy's hat floating over the sail and getting ready to fall in the ocean, but Zoro caught it before it could.

He handed it back to Luffy and the two sat back down, Luffy staring down at the hat in his hands for ten minutes.

"Luffy. You're gonna drop that thing again. I thought it was important," Zoro stated.

"It is. Thanks," Luffy smiled.

"Uh, I am so hungry. It's killing me," Zoro groaned.

You sighed and glanced up into the sky to see a bird.

"Look, it's a bird."

"I know! Let's eat it!" Luffy smiled.

"Huh? How do we catch it?" Zoro asked.

"Leave that to me! Gum Gum-!" "Luffy, no! That bird is-!"

But it was too late.

Straw Hat already shot himself in the air and went straight for the bird, but it caught him in it's beak.

"Huge," you sighed, finishing your sentence.

"Help me!" He started shouting as the bird carried him away.

Zoro quickly grabbed your only two oars and paddled as if his life depended on it.

"You moron! What the hell's goin' on now?!" Zoro shouted.

"I tried to tell you that the damn bird was gigantic!" you shouted as well, putting your hands to the side of your mouth so Luffy could hear you.

"Can't you fly up there and grab him?!" Zoro exclaimed, snapping his head over to you.

"And get snatched up, too?!" you sarcastically shouted.

"Hey! You there! Stop! Please! Men overboard!" one guy began shouting from not too far ahead.

It looked like there were three of them.

"I can't believe we find ship wreckers at a time like this! I can't stop, you're just gonna have to jump in!" Zoro called.

"What?!" The men exclaimed as they swam to the sides of the boat and climbed in, just before they could get mowed down.

"I'm actually impressed you made it onboard," Zoro smirked.

"Are you trying to kill us?!" They shouted in unison.

"Stop the boat. Now. The three of us are members of Buggy the Clown's pirate crew. This boat is ours now!" The leader drew his sword, pointing it at me.

"Excuse me?" you asked in a dangerously low voice, narrowing your eyes at the three.

You proceeded to beat them to a pulp.

"Today is not the day. I'm tired, hungry, and my damn captain just got taken by a predatory bird. If you want to live to see the rest of your days then I suggest you paddle," you growled as you snatched the oars from Zoro and shoved them into the arms of the other pirates.

You looked back in the sky to see that Luffy and the bird were nowhere in sight.

"Thanks to you three idiots, we've lost sight of our friend."

"Knowing Luffy, he'll probably pull off something once he spots land," Zoro stated, looking up in the sky.

There was a long silence.

"So, any ideas about what we do now?" The lead henchman asked.

"Good question. If Captain Buggy finds out a girl stole our boat and our treasure, we're history," His comrade agreed.

"I know," The third one sadly agreed.

"Huh? So who is this Buggy guy?" Zoro asked.

"Uh. You've never heard of Buggy the Clown?!" The third one exclaimed.

"Nope," Zoro answered.

"He's the ruthless captain of our pirate ship. And he's eaten one of the Devil Fruits. Above everything else, he is one truly terrifying man," The leader answered, resting his hands on his knees.

海賊狩

You docked at the port that was in the direction Luffy was taken when a gigantic boom rang through the air.

"That was one heck of an explosion," Zoro stated seriously.

"It looked like it was one of the Captain's beloved Buggy Balls," one of the henchmen said fearfully.

"Buggy balls?" you cocked a brow.

海賊狩

You and Zoro got on the boat the henchmen told you that Luffy would be on, and as soon as you landed, the two of you saw Luffy trapped in a cage and a girl about to be turned into mincemeat.

Zoro quickly got in front of her and used his swords to block their attack.

You went over to the girl and helped her up.

"Hey now. It's not very nice of you guys to gang up on the poor girl," Zoro growled as he held the men in place with two swords.

"Zoro! (y/n)!" Luffy happily exclaimed.

"Are your hands alright?" you asked as you carefully took her hands in yours, examining her injuries.

The burn, luckily, wasn't too bad, and would heal pretty quickly.

"Whew! What a relief! I'm glad you found us. Now hurry up and come get me out of here," Luffy sighed.

"How do you keep getting yourself into these situations? First, a bird flies off with you, and now we find you trapped in a cage," Zoro asked, furrowing his eyebrows.

"It's an interesting story, actually," Luffy shrugged.

"Hey, that little brat just called him Zoro!" one of the crew members gasped.

You started walking over to Luffy's cage with Zoro when a creepy voice spoke up.

"So you're Zoro. If you're here for my head, you've got quite a struggle before you," A clown-looking captain crossed his arms.

"No. Not interested. I gave up pirate hunting. I'm here for my friend," Zoro calmly replied.

"But I'm interested though. Killing you would bolster my reputation," The captain smirked.

"If you try, you'll die," Zoro said darkly, glaring at Clown Face.

"Oh. Is that so?" Clown Face grinned, pulling out two cutlasses.

"I tried to warn you, but oh well," Zoro sighed.

The crew members started chanting "Buggy" as the two men stood off, Clown Face licking his swords and Zoro putting his third sword in his mouth and getting into a fighting stance.

You moved off to the side so you weren't in the way.

Buggy ran for Zoro and jumped in the air, now having four cutlasses in one hand, but Zoro cut right through him, the pieces falling to the floor.

Zoro tucked his swords back into his holster.

"That wasn't much of a fight, now was it," He glared at Buggy's body.

'Something's not right.'

"Way to go, Zoro!" Luffy cheered.

The other pirates began laughing and you furrowed my eyebrows as you turned to them.

"Why are they laughing?"

"Their captain is laying dead on the ground and yet they're still laughing? What's going on?" The redheaded girl asked.

"Fellas. What do you find so damn funny?" Zoro glared at the pirates, his back turned so he couldn't see Buggy rise up from the ground.

Your eyes went wide as Buggy stabbed him in the side, Zoro yelling out in pain.

"ZORO!" You and Luffy shouted in unison.

Buggy's severed hand pulled out the cutlass and returned to his wrist.

"The Chop Chop fruit. That's the name of the Devil Fruit that's given me my powers. I'm a Chop-Chop person, and now I can never be defeated by the sword!" Buggy maniacally laughed as he reconnected his torso with his legs.

You quickly whipped out your pistol from your holster and shot him in the foot to see if that would do anything.

His yell of pain gave you your answer.

"We can do guns if you want," you spat, grabbing your other one out of your other holster.

Your outfit was simple. A white tube top with a brown, burlap, miniskirt, a belt with a holster for your mace and pistols, and a gold anklet that hung loosely on your Greek sandaled feet.

"So he's a Chop Chop man? That's pretty freaky," Luffy deadpanned.

"So angry. I didn't hit any vital organs on your little boyfriend, but that's a serious wound he has there. So I'm guessing I am the winner! But now it's your turn, girl. Don't think I'll let you shooting me go without punishment," Buggy smirked, his henchmen cheering for him.

"I let my guard down. Stupid mistake," Zoro strained, slowly trying to get up.

"It was. Now, can you fight? I can't take on the crew and Bozo over here by myself," you asked him in a low voice, keeping your eyes on Clown Face.

"Stabbing him in the back was a cowardly move, you Big Nose!" Luffy shouted.

The entire crew went silent.

"What's that...you..said! Who's got a big nose?!" Buggy shouted, throwing a cutlass at Luffy.

"Luffy!" Zoro exclaimed.

But Straw Hat managed to catch it with his teeth.

"I'm gonna kick your ass as soon as I get out of this cage!" Luffy smiled, breaking the sword.

"You kick my ass? You've got a lot of nerve, kid. No, I'm afraid all four of you are going to die here today, by my own hand. So if you're going to do any ass kicking, you better do it soon," Buggy laughed.

"We're done for. It's all over," the redhead girl said sadly.

"I refuse to die! (y/n)! Get ready!" Luffy shouted, smiling.

"You better have a really good plan or else we're all dead!" You ad Redhead shouted back in unison.

It suddenly clicked and you smirked.

"I gotcha," you nodded in a low voice.

"Impudent girl! Time to die!" Buggy shouted, attacking you with all five of his swords.

You blocked every single one of his swipes, managing to bash his torso in half and then get behind him.

"I already told you I'm-Hey! Listen when I'm talking to you!" Buggy shouted once he realized you were running to the cannon, Zoro over your shoulder.

You placed him down in front of you before getting under the cannon and pushing up, straining to lift it.

"AGH!" you shouted, making your wings help push, flipping it over to face the other pirates.

Zoro's eyes went wide as he watched you, and the pirates' faces lit up in terror.

"Crap, the cannon's pointed at us! No!" Buggy exclaimed.

"Hurry! Light it!" you ordered the girl.

"Right!" She nodded.

"Wait! The cannon's still loaded with a special Buggy Ball! I don't wanna go out like this! Done in by my own balls!" Buggy shouted.

Redhead lit the fuse.

"I can't believe you just did that, yo ungrateful little girl! Wait! N-N-No! Stop! Stop it now!"

Buggy's rants were interrupted by the deafening boom of the cannon.

The Captain and the Kid

I never used to miss the chance To climb up on his knee Listen to the many tales Of life upon the sea

We'd go sailin' back on barkentines An' talk of things he did Tomorrow just a day away For the captain and the kid

His world had gone from sailin' ships To rakin' mom's backyard He never could adjust to land Although he tried so hard

We both were growin' older then Wiser with our years That's when I came to understand The course his heart still steered

He died about a month ago While winter filled the air And though I cried, I was so proud To love a man so rare

He's somewhere on the ocean now A place he outta be With one hand on the starboard rail He's wavin' back at me

I never used to miss the chance To climb up on his knee Listen to his many tales Of life upon the sea

We'd go sailin' back on barkentines Talk of things he did The world was just a day away For the captain and the kid

For the captain And this kid

so I was bored last night and found @stardustshimmer’s Meta Pirate Au and I ended up writing a 2500 word fanfic about it.

Edit: I have now posted this to my Ao3 and you can read it here if you’d prefer the layout :)

Cw: nothing too serious there is a fight scene but nothing graphic

and without further ado, here’s my silly fanfic :D

It was a common theme in every old sailor’s tall-tale that the sea held mystery and wonder that none could comprehend.

Stories of larger than life beasts that could bring an entire galleon down without so much as a warning were passed around from port to port.

Warnings spoken from one fisherman to the next told of odd creatures that got caught in the fishing nets of ships, and if they weren’t thrown back into the depths, the ship was doomed to sail into a storm and crash upon the rocks.

“So, do ya’ think all that’s real?” Asked a pirate that obviously didn’t understand the meaning of ‘loose lips sink ships’ to their friend.

The second person in the conversation thought for a moment, “hmm, can’t say I do. Most of those stories are just made up to ward away the weak of heart from treasure.”

The initiator of the conversation scoffed, “but ya’ gotta think it’s weird what ‘appened to The Squeaks last week! They got one a’the best captains ‘round- and yet after they fished up that weird fish they sailed straight into a storm!”

The wiser of the two quickly shushed their friend, “hey! We got no clue if he could be around. Hush up, will ya?”

Though unfortunately, the ‘he’ that the sailor had been referring to had already overheard what the two had been conversing about.

Captain Meta was a relatively new captain, but he had already made a name for himself as the Swordsman of the Sea. His capabilities with his mighty sword, Galaxia, was spoken about in taverns with reverence and caution.

The captain moved from his place in the shadows back towards where his ship, the Halberd, was anchored hoping that there hadn’t been any delays with restocking the ship of the items that the seven person crew needed.

Even from the back alleys, Captain Meta could hear the low rumblings of conversation from the island’s market. It was at times like this that the pirate was grateful for the life that he led. The sounds of the sea and waves were a far pleasanter sound than the bustle of a town.

Soon enough, Meta arrived at the side of the island where the Halberd was anchored, and to the captain’s delight the crew had finished loading up the last of the cargo just a moment before he had returned.

“Captain,” Axe -the pirate that often took the steering wheel- began, “I know it’s ill advised to stay in one place for too long, but I don’t like the look of the clouds off the coast. I think we should stay put until they clear.”

Axe’s suggestion then caused the Halberd's quartermaster, Vul, to squawk in surprise. “Axe, you know we can’t let those blasted Squeaks get ahead of us! We gotta keep sailin’!”

Captain Meta waved Vul’s reprimands off, “Vul, calm yourself. I just got word from the locals that the Squeaks sailed into a storm themselves. It seems as though the bilge rats are far off course from finding that broach of ours.”

Though, Vul once again made his thoughts known, “Captain, I understand what you’re saying, but I’m positive that we can get past those clouds before any storm hits.”

With a sigh, Meta gave into Vul’s advice, and ordered the sails to be lowered taking the bird-like pirate on his word.

In an instant, the pearly white sails filled with wind, and the Halberd was out to sea once more.

Keeping a keen eye on the storm clouds brewing above, Axe sailed over a sea that grew darker with each passing minute.

In little under an hour, the waves grew choppy and turned from their usual sapphire hue, into a deep somber emerald color that was capped with white sea foam at the waves peak. Though still, the Halberd pressed on despite the obvious signs of a bad storm.

~~~~~~

By some miracle, the Halberd hadn’t been caught by the storm and had found calmer waters once the island they had been anchored at was out of sight -which caused Vul to act smug for the rest of the night.

As per usual, Meta took the first watch while the rest of the crew slept below deck. This gave him ample time to both listen to the waves as they rocked the ship from side to side, and to fantasize about the treasure that awaited him and the crew.

The broach of the ocean king was almost something of fiction. It was said to have the power to create storms that could sink any ship, have the wind always be in the sails, and could sell for a very pretty amount.

It was for these reasons that as soon as sightings of the broach had been spotted, Daroach and his crew -most commonly known as the Squeaks- had been sailing all around where the broach had been seen.

This in turn got the attention of Meta’s crew, as they were the closest thing that the Squeaks had to a rival.

However the most curious thing about the broach wasn’t its alleged powers, it was the manner in which it never followed the currents like any other overboard treasure would’ve.

From what stories Meta had heard, it almost seemed like the broach had a mind of its own.

Drawing the captain from his own thoughts was the distinguishable sound of loud and boisterous exclamations of a crew that had just secured a piece of valuable treasure.

In an instant, Meta drew his spyglass and looked across the dark sea that was illuminated only by the bright moon, and spotted the unmistakable insignia of the Squeak’s ship.

In one swift motion, the captain turned the steering wheel so that the Halberd faced what was once the port side, and rushed down the flight of stairs which led to where the crew had been asleep.

After only a minute, the crew had gathered their weapons and moved to the upper deck. It was then that they found that the Squeaks had not been shipwrecked by a storm like they’d previously believed, and by some cruel twist of luck, had found the broach before they had.

However, what the crew of the Halberd hadn’t been expecting was a voice as deep and imposing as thunder -a voice that didn’t fit the bill of any of the opposing crew- yelling over the Squeaks.

Even though they were still out of distance with the crew of mouse-like pirates, Meta could still hear most of the conversation clearly.

“You’re not gettin’ hold of my broach, you hear me!?” The loud voice yelled.

A pirate in a rich red coat and hat -the Captain of the Squeaks, Daroach- laughed at whoever had spoken, “you’re in no position to make demands, your majesty. Now hand over the treasure, and we’ll throw you back overboard. Deal?”

It was then that a pirate with yellow fur -the fastest member of the Squeaks, Spinni- alerted the rest of his crew of the Halberd and Captain Meta Knight’s presence.

A minute later, the Halberd was almost directly across from the Squeak’s ship, and it was then that Meta could clearly see who had been defying Daroach and apparently held the broach of the ocean king.

From the upper half of their body, Meta could’ve assumed they were a person of a similar type as Vul as they had royal blue feathers and what seemed to be a yellow beak.

However it was when the captain’s eyes trailed down that it became more noticeable that they were not like anyone else present on either ship, as to Meta’s surprise, the person had a tail like that of a fish. Making it clear that the person that the captain was looking at was a siren.

“Captain Meta! I was wondering when you’d finally show up, I didn’t want this night to get boring!” Daroach taunted, pulling the captain out of his fascination with the siren aboard the Squeak’s ship.

“Hand over the broach, Daroach, and we won’t have to blast your ship and crew of bilge rats to bits.” Vul commanded, aiming the canon towards the Squeak’s ship.

The pirate in the red coat sighed, “even if your threats convinced me in the slightest, I can’t get the blasted broach 'cause ‘his majesty’ over here is being difficult.”

The siren scoffed in offense, and was about to retort when Captain Meta spoke before him.

“Well then Daroach, how about we settle this like men?” He proposed as he drew Galaxia from her sheath, “winner keeps the broach.”

The crew of the Halberd shifted to a battle position and the Squeaks followed soon after.

“Sounds fine with me.” Daroach laughed, as the pirate marched forward and lowered the gangplank between the two ships, and a second later, a battle erupted between the two ships.

Upon the fight starting, Meta’s crew teamed up in pairs to face the Squeaks.

Axe and Mace worked together to move faster than Spinni could on his own and catch the yellow-furred pirate.

The unlikely duo of Javelin and Trident worked to take on Doc who used his inventions against the two pirates.

The heavyweight of the Squeaks, Storo, was handled by Sword and Blade.

The two captains clashed against each other, with Meta using Galaxia and Daroach using his sharpened claws.

Everytime that Meta would slice, aiming to hit the pirate, Galaxia would only cut through air. To which Daroach would make his own counterattack, but find the same result.

This dance continued for what felt like hours, until finally, Meta saw his opening.

In one swift action, the captain sent Galaxia through Daroach’s red cape sending the mouse-like pirate to the ground as he drove the sword into the deck of the ship.

Meta stood over Daroach for a moment, emphasizing that the fight was over.

With a groan, the captain of the Squeaks conceded, “fine. You won, the broach and the siren are yours, blah blah blah, now get off my ship.”

Now with a smug look in his eyes, Meta and the rest of his crew crossed the gangplank back onto their own ship. A minute later, Storo begrudgingly transferred the broach and the siren to the Halberd and the Squeaks retreated.

“Go tend to your injuries, I will retrieve the broach.” Meta told his crew, to which they adhered to.

Finally Meta was face to face with the siren, it was at that point that the captain saw two things that he hadn’t noticed before.

The first of which being how the scales of the siren’s tail transitioned from a warm scarlet to an orange gentle as the sun’s first rays of light and ended in a bright and joyous yellow.

However the second thing the pirate noticed was the broach of the ocean king -a name that now made more sense- was just a small sapphire crystal stuck onto a seashell, but that wasn’t saying that the broach wasn’t beautiful, just that Meta had been expected more.

“Hey, uh, thanks for rescuin’ me from those guys. It really means lots to me, but I gotta get movin’, so if ya’ can just throw me back overboard that’d be nice of ya’.” The siren said, his tone almost sounding genuine.

Meta was quiet for a moment before sighing, “you are going to answer a few of my questions before I turn you loose.”

The siren rolled his eyes, like he had been expecting something like this.

“What is your name?”

The siren had a confused look on his face for a second, perhaps not expecting the questions to be that simple.

“It’s Dedede, and from what I’ve gathered you’re Captain Meta of the Halberd.”

Dedede wasn’t a name that Meta had anticipated, however it suited the siren well in the pirate’s opinion.

“So Dedede,” Meta began, starting the second round of questions, “what were you doing on the Squeak’s ship?”

Dedede turned his gaze to the ground, “they had my guppy, Kirby, I couldn’t let them just take ‘im away like that.”

Meta paused for a moment as he thought over what Dedede had just told him. “Did they even know that you had the broach?”

The siren just shook his head, “then it must’ve really just been dumb luck.” The pirate thought to himself.

“Speaking of that broach, how did you even come across it?”

Dedede smiled, “it’s been mine for as long as I can remember. I don’t remember who I got it from, but I know that I gotta keep on at all times, otherwise those Dark Matter Octopuses would get me in a flash.”

Meta held a perplexed look in his eyes for a second, “what are the ‘Dark Matter Octopuses’ that you speak of? I’ve never heard of anything like that.”

The siren shuddered, “I got no clue where they come from or what they even are, but what I do know is that I can never let ‘em near me otherwise they’d turn me into a raging monster. Though fortunately, my broach here doesn’t let that happen to me.”

In all of Meta’s years of life, not once did he ever consider that one day he would be talking to a siren that held an extremely valuable treasure, and consider letting the siren go with the treasure.

But here he was, doing exactly that.

On the horizon, morning had begun to break, the sight of which caused Dedede to visibly dishearten.

Dedede looked back to Meta after a minute of watching the sun rise with a pleading look in his eyes that just about broke the pirate’s heart.

With a sigh, Meta extended his gloved hand, “come on, your majesty, let’s get you back in the ocean where you belong.”

After a few minutes of work, Meta had successfully returned the siren to the ocean once again.

In all honesty, Meta was prepared to tell his crew that Dedede had escaped with the broach, and not give the siren another thought. Their lives could continue as usual, never meeting again.

However, Dedede wasn’t onboard with that plan.

Because before he swam back down into the depths of the ocean, the siren called back to the pirate.

“Hey Meta! If you ever want to find me again I’m usually hangin’ around Dreamland Cove! I’d love to see you try your hand at getting any of my other treasures.” And with that, Dedede disappeared under the waves.

Though he didn’t leave Meta without anything as a keepsake of their meeting, he left behind a warm feeling in Meta’s heart as the captain stood on the deck of the Halberd alone.
