Chapter 15

Chapter 15 - Gramp-Sensei's Advice

How Things Work: The Admiralty
Noble Hendo is the head of the Navy, and takes care of it's responsibilities. He is treated as the Head Admiral, and there are 3 Admirals below him. The 3 Admirals are Admiral Blaze, Admiral Yuhei, and Admiral Deruge. Each Admiral is over only 5 ships, Norea having an extremely small navy. Each Admiral can post their own Captains, but the Head Admiral can overrule them.
Admiral Blaze is a tactical master, and an expert at inspiring his troops. No one dares cross him, because of his massive offensive ability. He's from the Romu Clan.
Admiral Yuhei is more accustomed to relief missions, but is no slouch when it comes to fighting. Her marines love her, and any one of them would die for her. She's from the Sehyara Clan.
Admiral Deruge is the newest Admiral, and still has as of yet to prove himself. Admiral Blaze is his hero, and he tries to take after him, though he's more sensitive. He's from the Kayuchi Clan.

A.N: I may possibly end this segment soon, as I'm running out of topics. If I did, I'll probably have to come up with something to replace it.

Act 1, Scene 1 [Moresuke Town Hall]
Mayor Jakirusa's Aide: You have a guest, sir.
Mayor Jakirusa: Bring them in.
[Enter Sparrow]
Jakirusa: What is your business?
Sparrow: I've heard that you're not Prince Irakura's biggest fan.
Jakirusa: No. I am not. What of it?
Sparrow: I have an offer for you. I am the leader of a rebel orginazation, named Ameyura. Our goal is the complete overthrow of Irakura and his supporters. The problem is, we need a base, a place to stay. That's where you come in. In return for providing us a home, we are willing to work for the betterment of the village. We would be subject to you, and wuold always ask your permission before executing missions, as well as providing security for the village. What say you?
Jakirusa: Give me some time to consider your proposal. Treason is not to be taken lightly.
Sparrow: Of course. I have to get some supplies anyways.

Scene 2 [Store]
Sparrow: I need everything on this list, but double.
Ekura: That will be 50 Tera's.
Sparrow: Can I pay in Aga's?
Ekura: Sure, but that'll be 500 Aga's!
Sparrow: Here you go! I'll be back later to pick up my supplies.
Ekura: Gekkou! Here, collect everything on this list, and do it quickly! And carefully!
Sparrow: Your brother?
Ekura: Yes. He drives mother crazy.
[Enter Burei]
Burei: Ekura, my sweet! Have you got my usual?
Ekura: Don't call me that... and here it is.
Sparrow: A bunch of candy? What are you, five?
Burei: My precious! By the way, we have a date later, sweetums.
Ekura: I'm not your girlfriend!
Burei: It'd be a pity if something happened to Gekkou...
Ekura: No!
Sparrow: I've heard enough! Leave her alone!
Burei: You... punched me! You touched me!
Sparrow: Get out before I hit you again!
[Exit Burei]
Ekura: You shouldn't have done that. Bad things happen to people who cross Burei. He's Kuzaya!
Sparrow: That infamous gang has a branch in a small village like this?!
Ekura: Thank heaven, no. Burei came here from a big city a while ago. His Kuzaya tattoo earned him respect among the guys, and now he commands them like a wanna-be gang. I'm afraid something bad's going to happen to you now...
Sparrow: Don't worry, I can take care of myself!
[Exit Sparrow]

Act 2, Scene 1 [Moresuke Street]
[Sparrow is set upon by numerous thugs. She can beat them individually, but is overwhelmed by the large group. Gramps saves her from a severe beating.]
Gramps: Never go alone! If you ever wanna accomplish anything, you need your friends.
Sparrow: Ah... thanks... where do these guys hang out?
Gramps: An abandoned building. You an't miss it, it's the only one. But what's your plan?
Sparrow: I'm gonna teach these guys a lesson.
Gramps: You can't accomplish anything without your friends!
Sparrow: I know... thank you for the advice.

Scene 2 [Abandoned Building]
[Burei is chilling with his cronies, then Enter Sparrow]
Burei: What is she doing here?! I thought you guys took care of her!
Thug: The old guy helped her out.
Burei: Guess I'll have to teach her myself! Grab her!
Sparrow: I wouldn't do that! My friends wouldn't appreciate that.
[Enter Atsura, Jyakuge and Koiki... through the wall]
Atsura: Sparrow said that some punks needed to be taught a lesson?
Burei: Every man for himself! Run!
Sparrow: Gramps was right... never go it alone!

A Quick Look At ~ The Kuzaya
The Kuzaya is one of three gangs that make up the Triad. The other two are the Naparabo and the Akuma. The Kuzaya is stronger than the Naparabo, but weaker than the Akuma. The Kuzaya is very strong in small villages and towns, and thrives without competition, unlike the other two. They're normally organized into small-time street gangs. They have no centralized leadership, but answer to the Traid leader, as do all the members of the Triad.'

Next time, the Grand Tournament begins! Noble Bepo gives a speech, while Sparrow comes face to face with her enemy, Samurai Sanyuta of the Kachyu Clan! Each Noble's team is introduced as well.
