Lagoon (P) Dag and I

Postby Nevermore » 01/26/2015 6:51 PM

The sea felt angry, waves crushing hard against the caves walls, thank god for the shelter her home provided. "We ain't 'oin any were" she huffed angrily, throwing a pebble across the ferocious sea. She looked back to her companion who seemed to be deep asleep nothing caused him any stress "what a dip tard" she spat sulking to her knees gazing into the hungry sea. "All aye wan'ed was tah swim" she sighed in defeat.

The fantastic Dr. Caladium (known for his trade on the out skirts of the royal city for his botanics) was on his yearly hunt for exotic specimens. He had been scouring these coasts lines for the past four days, procuring an agreeable number of odd species, and watching the sky growing angrier by the day. His practice was sometimes received rather distastefully by strangers, being that the practice of cultivating poisonous plants did sound rather dark in nature. His fantastically bright appearance could be seen all but crawling across the dark shaded beach, not another soul in sight. The palm trees all bent in the wind, Dr. Caladium's Bright green coat flapped behind him.

"Why would one suppose it refers to the sun?
Does the dawn not refer to the moment a new day is revealed?

VanDarth poked her head out from behind her giant sleeping partner observing the peaceful expression the creature wore as it slept, it ticked her off. With a mischievous plan she backed away from the monster. Hehehe, she chuckled plotting his demise. His claws twitched alerting Darth of his potential awakening. "It's tuh late fur yah" she chuckled her fingers dancing together waiting for her trap to go off with glee.

Dr. Caladium pulled a small shovel from his thick tan utility belt, by small one could refer to it as being no bigger than a wolf claw, and carefully removed a small sprout from between a pair of boulders. It was a delicate little thing. Adjusting his bizarre spectacles to better analyze its tiny leaves as he carefully dropped the muddy black sand and it's sprout into an impossibly little brown jar that came from a pouch on the same belt, he frowned.
Shaking his head slightly, he pulled his coat away from his left side and opened the square box-like device that hung off his belt, there he had an assortment of tiny plants in similar containers, organized in little sections, "Water hemlock. Well, welcome to the family. You're sure to grow to be a beauty. Wish you hadn't chosen a place like this to try to grow, you never would have made it." he smiled softly and somehow, it was as though the little sprout understood him.

Darths expression shown brightly with delight her Dragon fell into her trap with ease " I told yah, yer were tuh late" she snickered getting close to the wide eyed dragon who was now in full restraints ropes tied like a professional wrapped around his legs tail head and wings tightly the monster jerked it's head in annoyance "I done did it again" VanDarth sqealed. So pleased with her work she recklessly got closer to the dragon "watch ah gone due about it" she teased him ruffling his nose. His tail struggled in its restraint, but it flawlessly continued to show just how annoyed the beast was.

He stood up and sighed into the wind, "especially with this storm. So many little ones will be uprooted and washed away by sun down." Dr. Caladium was looking out at the sea, the tide was high and the waves were furious. He was mere feet from the tree line and the tide was already at his feet. There was a rock faced hill coming up, one that he would be wise to climb if he wanted to continue his hunt much longer. There wasn't a ship on the water, and soon there wouldn't be a person on the beach, once he finally called it quits in this weather.
The wind pounded his ears and the dry salted trees moaned and cracked in each other as he left the tree line and hiked up the incline. Soon he realized that this was only the rim of a large sea cave that bowed across the lagoon, "O my!" he could hear the wind wailing and echoing though its mouth and the water's reflection danced fiercely on its ceiling.

She was laughing straight from her stomach "Okay okay." She said looking in the eyes of her friend "let me help yah out" her smile was too big and she couldn't quite get it to sober up. Unsheathing her sword she started to cut the rope off, she first loosened his tail which he than swung it right in front of her face leaping out of the way she landed right next to the anchor the roe had been tied to and in that moment his tail came flying back towards her missing her by a foot but hitting the anchor perfectly out of the cave and into the biggest monster they both didn't want to play with today. But luck would have it the sea devoured the anchor sucking everything it was attached to down into its belly. In one fluid motion both the sea dragon and VanDarth were sinking into the sea.

The sound of laughter echoed intensely through the cave, it was almost impossible to identify at all, and then words, Dr. Caladium had no idea what this person was saying but it was all soon followed by sure sounds of dismay. a loud splash, thunks.... and then the voice was completely gone.
Dr. Caladium didn't converse with many sea plants, not because he had anything against them, he was just more of the land dweller himself, but a feeling of stomach lurching panic had him reaching his hands into the choppy waters at the sea cave's lowest ramp. Plants don't speak like people, verbal conversation was never for plants (not to say they don't enjoy the acknowledgment), so just being in contact or near a plant was all he needed to ask for information. Plants spoke fast, but acted slowly, so it was mere seconds before he was carefully rushing his way toward the location he was informed on. What to do now was beyond him. He was, after all, only a poisonous plant botanist most days. But an option was tickling his mind threateningly, an option he wasn't fond of... but was fondness any excuse to throw a life away?

Before VanDarth could react she and her dragon made it to the bottom of the sea cave, the water pressure was high they must have been about fifty feet (give or take) below the surface. Her eyes began to go red. Her heart was picking up speed she jerked her head down to her ankle. It was caught in the rope. She tried to pull herself down to get closer to her problem. With her sword in hand she swung at it, in slow motion she pushed herself against the water and she than cut the rope that kept her at deaths door, as air bubbles escaped her mouth and nostrils she tried to swim up, but the pressure was beginning to take its effect she started seeing spots and darkness began to engulf her. A thrust of a tail sprang her closer to the surface with time only barely on her side Darth had made it to the surface. Bursting her head out of the water she gasped for her first bit of air following up with sudden coughing.

He watched the bubbles come up faster and faster until a young face emerged from the water, coughing and hacking.
"Thank goodness!" Dr. Caladium  climbed into the water, not going farther than knee deep to avoid drowning his specimen box. He reached for the girl and began to pull her to the raised rock platform where she presumably fell from. He was flooded with relief, "my goodness, young lady, are you alright? What on earth happened?" He was saying in a fumbled voice as he struggled to grasp her arm.It was int he middle of his question that he began to notice her appearance and questioned if he should be helping her out at al. The blade in her hand was a sure warning sign.

Purely exhausted she had no energy to swim ashore sinking back into the water she closed her eyes, then she felt the tug of someone bringing her back to land, in a jolt of panic she opened her eyes one staring at the stranger and the other a milky color unable to be seen through, but staring with equal intent "Who ye- cough" she stopped in mid sentence coughing up the last bit of salt water from her lungs. She swung her blade in the direction of the stranger in defense of the unknown. Darth jumped from the man extending her sword in his direction "What is a scallywag like yeh self do'en in a place like this?" she asked gesturing to the entity of her pirates cave, a ship that was ported inside riding the angry waves and the treasures that laid upon the land inside. Whipping the spit and salt water from her mouth she glared at the man prepared to fight for what was hers.

Of course, Dr. Caladium immediately released the girl upon assault, "C,calm down, honestly!" he stopped himself from falling into the water form where he stood.
Her words were like non sense at first, "Scallywag? Me?" his head bobbed to the side slightly, hands in front of himself, "I, I, I'm a botanist!" he spat quickly upon her threatening question, the cave was big enough to house an entire colony, ships included. How he missed it on beach before would have been hard to believe if it wasn't for his nature when plant scavenging. His eyes rarely left the ground before him. and it wasn't until this moment that he even noticed what was in the cave. The faint shine of gold and precious stones, the monster of a ship creaking and shifting in place against an impossibly tall stone dock like structure, "j, just a botanist." he gulped as he looked down his nose to her blade.

"What's this fine werd you speak of, Boat-nest?" she questioned her eyes still like daggers on the perpetrator. Her hair hung damp in clumps of silky hair and dreadlocks her face had many scars on it, but the ones that stuck out; were slits on the left side of her face that resembled gills and one that came down from her good eye on the same side. Her tan skin was dark against her scars. Darth was not a clean woman and she rarely liked being known as a woman, which meant hygiene was not one of her strong suits. This man was lucky the sea drug her down for a bath today. She shuffled her feet side to side trying to get the blood to circulate and warm her body. She didn't trust him, in fact his presence here only granted him his time of death.

"I study plants, miss. My sole purpose in this world is plants." He thought that leaving out the "poison" part would be for the best in this scenario. He was trying to get to his feet, being on one knee at present, his trousers were already soaked through in salt water. Most wouldn't mind it as much as he did, salt water never did well with him; Made him feel suffocated and sickly if exposed to it for too long. Thunder clapped on the rocks and he could hear heavy rain beginning to smack the cave's face. A sigh left him, he never held fear for very long, it was a plant trait he liked to think. She had the expression of a merciless sea rat, the fact she was hesitating at all surprised Dr. Caladium but he doubted she would show him freedom to leave much less look for plants here, "miss, if you're going to cut me down, may I request that you do not throw my body into the water like the previous foe you fell in with earlier? If it's not too much trouble that is..." it was partially for himself, partially in hopes of saving his specimens; yes, his little plants that were, indeed, his life.

VanDarth eyed the stranger and then drifted her eyes to the water "ah..." she exhaled, she forgot about her friend who was still tied up. Peering over the caves floor she watched air bubbles continuously reach the surface of the water. She glared back at the man "yee, Strip yer belongens!" she ordered by the tip of her blade. She wasn't fooling around death was all she thought of for this young man, if he wasn't going to be of use she would slice him down, but given her swimming skill and her inability to hold her breath for long lengths she would use this man. He was just an object if he couldn't survive in the water then it was a win win for her.
