Jacaris paced outiside his small fishing hut, one hand on the sword sheathed at his side, the other rubbing his forehead. Nearby, a screech filled the air as a mermaid threw a dead dolphin at his hut, smashing through the only second floor window. Grimacing, he seated himself on the porch, hoping someone would come looking to fullfill his job request.
((EDIT: I spelled his name wrong... XDD ))

((Bow Chicka Bow Wow, the blind kid always shows up first))
"Jacaris? I'm Estrik here to fulfill the job request you put up!" he said, while putting his staff on his back in the holder. He walked up to Jacaris and put out his hand, waiting for a handshake. "Before we start, do you have any idea why they might be acting this way?" he asked while he waited, more people were coming, they always were.
((LMFAO! Its your character! I fixed the misspelling))

Crow showed up later then he thought, and was pleased an displeased to see Estrik there. He walked up, and spoke "High! I'm Crow, I'm hoping my telepathy and my experience with water could help with this problem." He looked over and gave a warm smile to Estrik. He wondered if Angelus would be coming too.

( DAMNIT. I had a whole post and IE killed it. >:[ )) [ 3000TH POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :] ]
Jacaris stood with excitement, grabbing both Crow and Estrik and dragging them onto the porch, "SHHH!!! They can hear you... But yes. I think there's a disturbance somewhere in the Dry Ocean and I want to find it and get rid of it."

"Ok," Estrik said with a sarcastic tone in his voice. He pinched his nose tight to avoid the smell of the rotting dolphin, "Just as a reminder, you might want to get that cleaned up." Estrik pulled out his staff and used it to lean on underneath the porch," So can you take us out there?"

"Is it possible for me to just go in the water, I could study them and then come back with my conclusion, then me and Estrik can work on a solution." Crow said looking out to the water, hoping to catch a glimpse of a mermaid.

"NOO THEY'LL RIP YOUR FACE OFF!" Jacaris screeched. He looked around the porch with shifty eyes, then spoke in a quieter tone, "My plan is to sail around the mermaid territory into the back of it, swim down there, dispose of their problemo, come back up, BAMO! We're done!" He pumped a fist into the air, a crooked smile splashed across his face.

Crow raised an eye at the man, who seemed to be insane. "It's seems you know what the problem is, and you just want to send us down there like puppets?" Crow said... seeming mad, then a smile went across his face. "Sounds like fun, as long as I get to go swimming!"

"Well, floating like puppets sounds fun," he said with a sarcastic tone in his voice. He had always hated swimming, he could swim, he just didn't like it from the depths of his heart. "But you still haven't told us what the problem is. It's pretty hard to dispose of something when you don't know what to dispose of." Estrik still leaned on his staff and sighed, he had met crazier, but this guy was definitely somewhere in his Top 10 Craziest People.

Jacaris quickly looked around, then pushed the two boys into the shack. He swiftly snapped shut the curtains and spoke, covering his mouth with his hands, "Cover your mouth, they might be able to lip read. But yes, mermaids are very protective and one of their major hotspots in their city has become contaminated and they think the people above ground did it. I need you two to go down there, avoid the merpeople, find the source of the contamination and kill and/or destroy it, then get back up here. Take this!" He held up two green rutabagas. From their color, they seemed radioactive, but apparantly they were... 'safe' to eat, as there were many, many different rutabaga stalks in the sink behind the man. And on the floor. And taped to the walls. And the ceilings. He spoke again, "Of course, I will be coming with you. I'll aid you in ever way possi- OHMYGOD LOOK OUT!" A dead porpoise flew through the window and crashed into Jacaris' table, smashing it into three pieces.
**Crow and Estrik recieved an item Seaborn Rutabaga A bright, bright green rutabaga about the size of one's fist If injested, the rutabaga gives the eater the ability to breathe, speak, move, fight, and use magic underwater with easy and fluidity *no pun intended*. Duration: One roleplay ONE-TIME USE ITEM!

Estrik began to chow down on the rutabaga, noting that either they tasted like pickles, or that he had been eating too much of the sour spuds. When it was finished he grabbed his staff and said to Jacaris, "Well, Let's go fix that mermaid problem!" Always knew that you couldn't trust something that didn't live on land, Croatoan said, faint because of the distance in the lunar cycle, but still there. The New Moon was coming soon, and that meant another rampage.

Jacaris shook his head at Estrik, "You're crazy boy. We should make a plan first!" He shoved the dead porpoise over and pulled out a wand from his pocket, "ABRA KADABRA!" He shouted, as the table reassembled itself, exactly the same as before, save the wet stain the water mammal had left.
"Abra kadabra!" He shouted again, three chairs falling around the table. Seating himself, he pulled out a large map of the Dry Ocean. In the center, a large red circle was inked thickly, "Mermaid's Territory." Just above the center, a second smaller, green, circle was marked as "Disturbance." Jacaris jabbed his wand at the circle, shouting, "HERE! We need to go here! But we need to find a way to avoid the merpeople, else they rip off our faces and tack them on their jackets for show!" He shook a fist.

"Well, what we need is some kind of distraction... Jacaris, do you have anything that could help us out?" Estrik said. The rutabaga seemed to take effect, he felt a strange longing for water. "If all else fails we could send Crow down there," he said in a joking tone. "Well, we should make a distraction, here," he said, pointing to the opposite side of the disturbance, which was astounding considering he was blind. It was a good thing whoever made the map made some indents in it. "But we need to make sure that it's something that would get all of the merpeople's attention, a huge beast of some sort?"

Crow sat with the Item he just received in his hand, wondering if he would need it. An Idea sprang into his head, and he asked. "Can the Mer-people survive without water? If they can, it would still be tough for them to move around and fight wouldn't it?" Crow said.

Jacaris screeched a laugh, "Silly silly silly potato boy!" He pointed his wand at Crow, "No no, they can go above it for possibly thirty minutes, then they die! We wouldn't want that, noooo, nooooo, silly Potato!" He shook his head, then jabbed his wand in Estrik's direction, "Exactly the right idea, but no! Not a creature! A GIANT RUTABAGA! YES! YES! YES!!!!" He shivered in excitement, then slammed his wand at the map, a giant blue blob sprouting at the southern end of it, "We drop the Rutabaga here! Merpeople CANNOT stay away from the rutabaganess of a rutabaga! We then go out to the disturbance and DESTROY IT!" He shook his wand violently, causing a thick spray of soy sauce to jet from the end, hitting Estrik in the face.
