The next morning, I got an early start on working out. I practiced using my angel demon magic. I figured out that I can fuse my magic with my animals magic only in that form. I can't do it in my regular form. After working out, I go down and fix some breakfast. I make veggie omelettes, fried ham, and some sausage. I fix myself a cup of herbal tea. I enjoy the peace before the guys get up. A few minutes, they barrel in. They look surprised that breakfast is made and eat. "This is good, little sis" says Killer politely. "I didn't know you knew how to cook". "Well I do". Kid gobbles his for down. I smile. I clean the dishes and get in leggings and a black and purple tube top.
"Okay, we are going to finish stocking supplies. Then we are finding that girl. Understand"? We all nod.
After a few hours of get supplies we need, we search for the little girl everywhere. Finally,hours, we Grace. She was hiding behind barrels on the outskirts of the town. "Hey, Grace". She yelped and put on a fighting stance. She calmed down when she saw me. "So, yesterday, you were going to tell us about this place, weren't you"? She nodded. "Not here, though. Follow me". We follow her to a little cottage in the woods.  When we get there, we see a lady, I'm guessing her mom, run up and hug her. She looks at us and backs up. "Look, we're not here to hurt you". "The last pirates who said that destroyed this island". I sigh. "We're here to help ma'am". "How do I know I can trust you filthy pirates"? "You don't. I wouldn't take that tone with us, if I were you" sneers kid. I grabbed his shoulder. "Maybe you should let me talk so we can get the info we need". He rolled his eyes.
"Look ma'am, I understand your skepticism about us. I used to be that way as well. Whatever you are going though, we need to understand so we can help". She sighed and gave in, seeing how we wouldn't take no for an answer.
She started telling us about the island and how it was peaceful. "What happened"? "Well, it started 5 years ago. It was a normal day when filthy pirates took over this island. Only the rich can live in town. The poor can't even afford food. Children have to starve because they are seen as pests, as burdens to society ". She tears up and I leaned her into my shoulder. I calmed her down. "I know exactly what you're going through ". "You... You do"?  I nod and remember what I went through. "I was sold, abused, raped"..Grace tugs at my leggings. "Yes"? "How are you still alive"? I grin. "Hope, and friends ". "What if you don't have any"? I get down to her level . "Of course you have some.. And we're going to kick these pirates asses for you". She smiles. "You promise "? I nod."I pinky promise ". She walks off to her room. "Thanks for that bluff. It made her smile for the first time in a while". I stare hard. "It wasn't a bluff. It was a promise. One I'm willing to keep". Kid smirks and chuckles. "You know, I thought the legend herself was supposed to be evil". I look shocked. "How did you.." "only your kind glows when close to their mate. They emit an unmistakable energy only talked about in history books and fables". "Well,I work hard to control the evil part. I use it for good". She smiles. She makes come pork curry with katsu chicken and sweet potato dumplings. "You guys hungry"? We nod and she fixes us some food. When I tell you it was like heaven on a plate, I'm not kidding. After we finish eating, we try to come up with a game plan. "I say we go find these assholes and take their heads. We can show them who's boss". "Captain, that plan could get us killed. We should try and be more stealthy about this, considering we don't even know who we are fighting". "He's right, Euey. Going in with no plan is a suicide mission to happen". He grunts.
We all go to sleep. We had an eventful day planned tomorrow. I just hope I'm strong enough to fight with the kid pirates.
