**Chapter 16: Fall**

After she made it to the galley, she was officially exhausted. She sat in the spot she used last time. The men saved it for her at dinner, so she guessed it was hers now. There were a few crew members quietly talking across the table, and Killer seemed to be finishing up breakfast for everyone. She just sat and 'watched' him cook. His movements were so smooth and fluid. Almost like a dance, he moved with rhythmic motions that all seemed to flow together.

'BANG!' Something slammed down in front of her. She was a bit startled, not realizing how much she had been focused on Killer. It was the Captain standing beside her. "I swear, if you are lying about being able to use this weird-ass haki, I'm gonna just throw you overboard. Now stop staring at Killer's ass and answer my question!" She just nodded, still trying to wake back up. "I'm sorry, Captain, what was your question again? Killer just has an ass that demands my attention." He growled at her for that. "I'm bored and want a new score soon. Where can we find someone?" "OH, umm, let's see. Last I heard, there was a marine ship sailing nearby. Judging by our speed and direction, we might be near them if they stayed on their route."

He smiled at that. "Hmm, good. I wanted to kick some marine ass today. Any idea how close?" "No, not really. Just my sources say that they have been more active in pirate hunting in this area." "Guess we'll just have to get their attention then." He ruffled her hair and moved to his seat. Cytherea realized the thing Eustass slammed in front of her was a cup of coffee. She took a sip and looked at Killer. He glanced over at her, his heart rate increased a little, then continued cooking. It was the same chocolate coffee he made for her before. Then Eustass brought it to her. They were too cute sometimes.

Breakfast was loud and full of laughter. Gig sat beside her again, and Wire was on the other side. The crew was excited to hear there hopefully would be a battle today. In the middle of talking, Gig accidentally grabbed her cup of coffee. After taking a sip, he said, "HOLY SHIT, THIS IS GOOD!" He turned to face Killer. "Why does the newest recruit get the special coffee?" Before Killer could defend his obvious special treatment, Cytherea chimed in. "You can get special coffee too." Gig turned and stared at her, asking, "HOW? HAVE A VAGINA?"

The crew laughed at his remark, so she responded loudly with laughter. "NO, just give Killer a blow job. You got those pretty lips of yours. I'm sure you can get something better than coffee." Killer swung his legs over the bench and spread his legs wide, saying, "Yeah, Gig, show me how bad you want it?” The crew was stunned; they were not used to Killer playing along with their jokes.

The captain decided to break the silence. "Gig, either blow the man or shut the fuck up. I want to finish my breakfast." The whole crew broke down laughing; some of them were even falling over off their seats, laughing so hard. Cytherea was laughing along too. She managed to calm down enough to read Wire's heart rate. She had a small curiosity about what would make it change. The man was still eating his breakfast, but it was beating a little faster. She really needed to ask him how he did that.

Cytherea wanted to stay up a little longer before going to sleep. So she found a nice spot on the deck, sat down, and started her new book. The sun was out, and the sea had been mild, which was lucky considering it was the New World. The crew was going through what Cytherea assumed was their normal routine. She was leaning against the main mast, enjoying the mystery in her book. She also had another one of her music dials. It wasn't the one her Jiji was singing on; it was full of soft classical and relaxing music.

When Gig came up to grab her book, she just let it slide out of her hands. She looked up at him and removed her headphones. Cytherea could tell he was looking for a fight, and she was just sleepy and didn't feel like it. Gig seemed surprised that she just let him take her book. She spoke in a soft, almost innocent voice, "Did you want to borrow my book, Gig?"
