The shifts between the commanders had switched.  Sak was now under the protection of the hot headed second commander, and Marco had yet to take his revenge.

The crew was still stuck on the Moby Dick, with the only news being they would be reaching an island within another week.  Because of the wait the crew had found ways to entertain themselves for the week.

Day 1
      Sak was sat on th corner of a table that was being used by Ace and a few others to play cards and gamble.  Sak had made way into the center of the table many times in order to peck the gold coins there. 

   There had not been a problem at first, but that quickly changed when Ace had to stop Sak from trying to swallow the coins.  Each time the small fluff-ball would make its way to the middle of the table it was sent back to the corner.

After Ace was done losing he looked back to collect Sak, and be off to bed. 

There was no bird on the table however;  there was only a black smudge where the bird had once been.

Day 2
     Ace had been able to find Sak in the kitchen, although his blunder was nearly caught by Thatch who walked into the room shortly after.

     Not wanting to have another incident like the day before Ace decided to spend his second day birdy-sitting on the main deck.  He had wanted to be safe, but the whole thing was starting to become boring.  His mind started to drift and sooner than he knew it Ace had slipped into sleep.

     Sak noticed Ace sleeping and snuggled into him.  Sak climbed up onto Ace's hat; making him sneeze when Sak's feathers brushed against his nose.

"Achoo!"

~~(30 minutes Later)~~

"Pfff"

"Ha...haha.."

Some of the Whitebeard Pirates in the first, second, and third divisions were gathered around an unconscious second division commander whoms face was smeared in black smudges.

Day 3
     It was day three and the second division commander was growing extremely anxious to reach the next island.  He was barely able to hold still with all the energy clogging up his system.

     His excess energy turned into an annoyance for some of the other crewmembers because Ace would set some of their clothes or hair a light while walking by them.

"Ace!  You've already set five people on fire today.  Do you think you could cool it?" Thatch asked.  The pompadour sporting man was upset because he had been amongst the casualties.

"Yeah commander you think you could keep from making me a living bonfire again?" The voice came from Teach, a member under the second division, who had fallen victim to Ace's fire four times already.

Ace gave them a grin "Hey, come on I can't help it!  So no long faces alright".

As Ace continued trying to get them to lighten up he did not realize that he once again started to set things on fire.  Not noticing the flames none of the men were prepared for Sak to be engulfed in the flames.  Sure enough there was a small panic when the baby bird was suddenly chirping while on fire. 

Sak did not seem to be bothered by the flames however.  Instead of screeching from being burned Sak sat happily on the table, chirping as if it were nothing.  Sak also began to grow noticeably larger while in the flames.

Despite the bird's unaffected stance the men were quick to put out the fire.  They looked over the bird to inspect for injuries, but no damage seemed to be done.  Instead of a small puffball however Sak had the form of a young bird with slick backed, black feathers.
