The Sirens Song

Scottish Whiskey?

Kirito's Pov
The way Eugeo described what happened, the rope he was holding onto snapped but Yuuki is always making sure the ropes are secure and strong so how did it snap? Is somebody still trying to kill Eugeo? No how would they know that Eugeo would go and save Yuuki, how would they know any of this was going to happen, it doesn't make any sense, I guess we'll just have to see.

Eugeo's Pov
I was on the deck helping move some of the food into the kitchen with Asuna, she was nice when she stopped trying to kill me, I put the food down in the kitchen "is there anything else I can help with?" I asked, Asuna shook her head "no, that's all thankyou" she answered, I nodded "actually.....can I ask you something?" She asked, I turned around again to face her "uh? Sure" I answered, she looked down "is it nice.....your life?" She asked, I was a bit shocked by the question, I looked down "w-well......yeah it's nice I guess" I was lying, my life isn't nice at all, I can't even be with a person that I actually love or choose what I want to be, who would want a life like that? "Eugeo? Is something wrong?" Asuna asked snapping me out of my thoughts, I nodded "yeah, I'll get going now" I walked away. I bumped into someone on my way out "s-sorry" I apologised before looking at who it was, Kirito "is something wrong? You look upset" he asked, I nodded "yeah everything is fine, why wouldn't it be?" I answered, I tried to walk away, Kirito grabbed my arm "you can be honest here Eugeo...... do you miss Alice? Or maybe one of your other siblings?" He asked, I shook my head, I then realised something "wait...... how do you know her name?" I asked, Kirito seemed a bit shocked "I- uh..... d-didn't you tell me?" he asked, I know for a fact that I've never told him the names of any of my siblings "I never told you her name..... so how do you know it?" I asked, Kirito stayed quiet "how do you know?" I asked again, he didn't say anything again, instead he let my arm go and started to walk away "Kirito!" I yelled, he walked back into his cabin, I quickly followed him, I closed the door "Kirito answer me! How do you know?!" I yelled, Kirito was facing away from me "Kirito..... please just tell me how you know" I put my hand on his shoulder, he was still quiet, I heard a sniffle, is he....crying? (No he's panicking because his boyfriend is mad at him) "Kirito please" I requested "I just do..... I don't really remember how but I know your sisters name is Alice" He answered, I wasn't convinced but I decided not to question him anymore, I noticed he seemed to be panicking a bit, I stared at him in concern "I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to upset you" I apologised, he shook his head and turned to face me "we will be at pirates bay soon, will you accompany me to meet with someone?" He asked changing the subject, I nodded "of course captain" I answered. I admit, would still like to know how he knows my sisters name but it doesn't matter right now.

"Alright we might be gone for a while so Agil make sure nobody gets into trouble" I requested, I was in my cabin getting ready to leave, we had arrived in pirates bay and now I had to meet with an old friend, Eugeo was waiting for me outside. I put my hat on and walked out of my cabin, I saw Eugeo talking to Lizbeth, they have been getting along quite well, I walked up to them "alright Eugeo let's go" I walked past him and off the ship, Eugeo quickly followed me waving to Lizbeth, I looked around, this place was always a mess "alright Eugeo, stay close this place is pretty dangerous, if your with me you'll be safe" I said, Eugeo got a bit closer to me, to my delight, I considered holding his hand for a moment, I just went with it and held his hand, he looked at me confused "safety first cutie" I whispered, he gave me a disappointed look but didn't protest the idea. I walked down the dock and towards the tavern "so..... who are we meeting with?" Eugeo asked, I looked at him for a moment and then back at our path "an old friend" I answered, he looked confused. We arrived at the tavern and both went inside, I looked around until I saw a tall slim man with a black trench coat and a black button up shirt, his entire outfit was black with the occasional white of red, he wore black boots as well, his hat was covering his face as he sat back in his chair with his legs rested on the table. I walked up to the table and sat down in the chair in front of him, letting Eugeo's hand go, Eugeo sat down next to me "is he asleep?" Eugeo whispered to me, I shook my head "no he's trying to mess with us" I answered, the pirate sat sat up and got his legs off the table, he lifted his hat, we could now see his crimson red eyes and jet black, medium length hair that was tied into a low ponytail, his skin was so pale he looked like a ghost "how have you been Kirito?" He asked, he held his hand out to me, I took his hand and we shook hands "I've been fine, how about you?" I asked, he let my hand go "I'm fine" he noticed Eugeo who was staring at him "oh? Who's this?" He asked, I looked at Eugeo to signal for him to talk "uhh, I'm Eugeo" the blonde answered, the black haired pirate nodded "Eugeo....." he looked at me, I gestured for him to zip his mouth, he seemed to understand "what's your name?" Eugeo asked, the pirate smiled "ah sorry, how rude of me, I'm Captain Wraith of the Deaths Chariot" he answered, I gave a small sigh of relief "so what brings you here Kirito?" He asked, I looked at him again "well, you are the only one who knows how to get through Pixie Island safely, I came to ask if you could help us get through so we can get the first map" I answered, Wraith rested his head in his hand and took a sip of whiskey that came out of nowhere "what's in it for me?" He asked, I sighed, I knew he would ask that "I have 10 bottles of one of the rarest Scottish whiskeys on my boat, you get us their and back I'll give you all of it" I answered, he nodded "ok deal" Eugeo seemed a bit shocked "what? Who doesn't love some good Scottish whiskey?" Wraith stood up "let's get to my ship, we will leave soon" he said, Eugeo and I stood up as well, we both followed Wraith out "how do you two know each other?" Eugeo asked, Wraith laughed, a bit, I hit myself in the head in frustration, I knew what he was going to say "I've known Kirito here since he was 14, when he first became a pirate I was about...... 16, he joined my crew and brought his sister with him to-" in a panic I covered Wraith's mouth "that's enough! He doesn't need to know" I whisper yelled as I glared at Wraith, he nodded and stopped talking, I let him go, Eugeo looked a bit confused, he shook his head and looked at the path ahead. Eugeo can't find out who I am, who I really am.

Wraith's Pov
I think Kirito is hiding who he is from Eugeo, although I don't know why Eugeo hasn't figured it out yet, it doesn't really concern me but I do believe Eugeo deserves to know, I won't tell him anything though, I'll leave that up to Kirito. I noticed that scar that looked like a cross on Eugeo's wrist that Kirito told me about way back when he was 16, it's a cruel world indeed.

Kirito's Pov
We arrived at Wraith's ship, Deaths Chariot, I know this ship like the back of my hand, before I became the captain of my own ship I was apart of Wraith's crew, I looked around a few people were on deck but I was looking for two certain people, I walked around the large ship, Eugeo followed closely behind me, suddenly a knife landed in the ground next to me and Eugeo, I didn't even flinch Eugeo jumped back a bit "I thought I was done with people trying to kill me" Eugeo mumbled, I sighed "no one is trying to kill you, it missed for a reason" just as I said this a girl with short silver hair landed in front of me, she was wearing a white button up shirt with a red corset around her waist, she also had black tights and knee high black boots "Kirito's right, the reason I missed is because I really didn't miss, I never miss" she explained, she held out her hand and her knife flew form the ground into her hand "h-how?" Eugeo looked so confused "show off!" Wraith yelled from the top deck "is he drunk again?" A blonde girl asked walking up to us, she was wearing a white shirt that was just off her shoulders and a brown corset, she had a black frilly skirt and knee high brown boots, her hair was tied into a high ponytail "I'm Ojo, a witch, I put a spell on Tsuki's knife so she can summon it back to her" Ojo introduced herself "and I'm Tsuki, the captains first mate" Tsuki introduced herself "fucking SHOW OFFS!!!!" Wraith yelled again, I looked up at him, he was hanging upside down on the sails now "how did he even get up there?" Ojo asked "it's easy" me and Tsuki both said together, Ojo sighed "I'll get him down" she then walked away "be a gentleman and help me will you?" She asked Eugeo, Eugeo nodded and followed her, that left Tsuki and I alone "he's not drunk he's just being Wraith" Tsuki said, I nodded "I know" we both looked at each other "so are you and Ojo dating yet?" I asked, Tsuki's face went red "n-no....." she mumbled, I sighed "even after all this time? ok" she smacked me in the head "shut up" she mumbled "I'm not stuck!! I just like being upside down, I'm like a bat!" I heard Wraith say, I looked up, he was somehow avoiding Ojo's spells the get him down, I started to laugh quietly, Tsuki joined in and we both eventually burst into laughter "same old captain" I took a breath trying to calm myself down. Wraith jumped down from where he was and in front of Tsuki and I "may I have a word with a fellow captain" he asked, I nodded. He led me into the captains cabin, we both just stood there, the door was open, Wraith looked out at Eugeo who was having a chat with Tsuki and Ojo "does he know?" Wraith asked, I shook my head "I haven't told him and he hasn't seemed to recognise me so...." I answered, Wraith gave me a disappointed look "he really does deserve to know, he thinks your dead, everyone does" he said, I looked down "I know..... but I can't tell him..... not yet" I explained "as long as you tell him eventually, Kazuto" I glared at Wraith for a moment "he would be disappointed" I mumbled "why? You were his friend" Wraith asked "that's exactly why, I was his friend and I abandoned him when he needed me" I explained "you needed to protect your sister" he added "I could have taken him with me, when he finds out who I am and what I've become he will never give me a chance to make things right" I explained, Wraith nodded "I suppose you have a point..... but don't hide it forever, it will just make things worse when he inevitably finds out" he explained, I nodded in agreement "yeah, your right" the room went quiet for a moment. I smiled and looked at Wraith "hey Wraith?" I asked, he looked at me "never call me Kazuto again, it doesn't sound right coming from you" I said, he laughed a bit "yeah, trust me that will never come out of my mouth again, I hated it" we both laughed a bit "so it's been a while since we last fought each other..... want to fight?" He asked, I nodded "yeah sure, I'll win this time though" I agreed, Wraith simply laughed "as if! I'll win this time" he protested.

(Umm......best friends?)
