Children of the Sea [Katherine]

[Nothingness]

August 6^th

His course was set--he'd return to Port Royal, then return to Agrabah, then return here. There was work that needed to be done, but there was one problem that stood before Clive--he had no means of making it to either world. Still, he couldn't allow himself to stop now--no, not while the determination was still burning inside him.

Walking towards the ship's lot, he started looking around for any sort of pilot willing to take him. If not for free, then he would at least give them payment worth the trouble. Not being picky, he went over to the first person he saw: a woman dressed in familiar garb--dressed as a sailor. Perhaps another child of the sea would offer him assistance.

Please make this interesting.

Recap time. The swordsman left the fight early and then never came back. Coming to that wasn't even worthwhile. Katherine didn't even get to fight anyone really, though that was her own choice since she wasn't about to fight in the snow. She left that world as quickly as possible, then traveling for a while before she decided to finally stop. Maybe she should go back home. Maybe not. She wasn't on any sort of mission at the moment, not even getting any income at the moment. It might be better to go home where she could get some munny at the very least, or go to this world to see if she could find anything worthwhile.

She hadn't landed on Radiant Garden too long ago, the world bright compared to the others she had been on recently. People were repairing the town and going about their daily business, many different travelers alike. None of them looked the same, most of them boring. No Heartless around here either, or at least not in this area. There had to be at least some around here, or maybe even someone to fight. Anything to relieve this boredom.

Well, the 'anything' to relieve said boredom was someone approaching her. Hmm, interesting. His clothing looked sort of like it was from home. Maybe by chance he was from there. Or maybe he wasn't and he was just trying to get her to talk to him for something about who knows what. Eh, whatever. She'd find out. "Can I help you with something? she asked, her arms crossed.

As Interesting As You Want

The woman's accent confirmed his suspicions; the two of them were, in fact, of the same world. Good, that might help. "I need a ride. Simple as that. To Port Royal, Agrabah, and wherever I decide after that. As far as payment, whatever you want." Clive wasn't going to be picky--he needed off this rock in anyway possible. Still, he felt that a warning would be best to give, though he doubted it would be necessary. "The reasons are personal, but I may need you to accompany me to where I need to go. For safety reasons, though, you can leave me to dry if you so wish."

Now all he had to do was see if she would take the bait.

[Fate]

Bait taken.

His accent confirmed that he was, indeed, from Port Royal. And he wanted a ride back there and then to Agrabah, that desert world if she wasn't mistaken. Then it would be who knows where. She thought about it. She never got anything from that fight the swordsman made her go to, which she really wasn't pleased with. This guy knew that she would want payment though-- really straightforward about what he wanted and was willing to pay whatever. She needed munny, so maybe that would work. And he wasn't forcing her to help.

"Munny's all I need at the moment, and I do need to make my way back home as well..." she said in reply, looking back at him. She wasn't like every other pirate that was obsessed with treasure, though she certainly wouldn't say no to it if it was offered. There wasn't much of a downside to this as far as she could see, except maybe being stuck with him after Agrabah; it would all depend on how much time they were going to spend in each world. And it would also depend on if he held up his end of the deal. It seemed like he would so far, but she would make sure he would just in case.

She grinned. "I think you've got yourself a deal." She stuck out her hand to shake his. "Katherine. Anything else I should know?"

Then We're Agreed

He's a Pirate

Only munny? Well, then this would be no problem whatsoever. She'd get her munny, no problem, although it would involved work on both their parts. After all, the Caves certainly had an abundance of munny.

He took her hand and shook it firmly. "That we do. My name's Clive." Letting go, he put a hand to his chin thoughtfully, thinking of what else she should be aware of. After a moment, he held out a bag of munny and handed it to her, answering. "You'll get the rest of the payment in Agrabah, though you may have to work a bit more for it."

He could only think of one last thing to say: "We'll leave whenever you're ready."

[Fate]

At least this guy has good taste in music.

Clive. All right then, now she had a name and some of his munny. Did she need anything else? Seeing as she had already been stocked up on supplies from the get-go and she hadn't used much of them yet, she was good to go. "All right, then I'm ready to go." She pocketed the munny quickly. She was more than fine getting the rest of the payment in Agrabah, even working for it.

Leading the way to her ship, she opened the door and gestured for him to go through first. "Climb on it, make yourself comfortable, and we'll leave." There wasn't much in this ship either since Katherine wasn't into decorating that much. There was a journal hidden somewhere with some notes and the usual couple of rooms. Other than that, nothing. Maybe she'd find something back home to put in here to make it more interesting.
