The salty air blew once again, brushing the young man's golden hair in front of his face. He sat on the side of the boat with his feet hanging off the other wide. Brushing his face from his eyes to free his vision he peered into the depths of the water. Oh how he wanted to just jump on in and swim but that'd be awful stupid...and he wasn't quite up for a marathon swim to Joya. He had been advised to get down from there but he had shrugged off the warnings. He was a Fairy Tail wizard after all! He was more than capable of handling himself. "Ugh, hey Zero are we there yet?" he groaned as he took in another deep breath of salty sea air. It was a rather pleasant scene truth be told, but it had felt like years since they had departed for this missions and Tatsu was soon growing impatient.
The water began to get choppy, causing the boat to irk and jump. This caught Tatsu off guard as he soon felt his rear leave it's perch on the boats side. His eyes widened as he quickly turned, grabbing on to the edge of the boat before making a might descent into the great blue ocean! In most cases one would scream or panic but as the young wizard hung from a single arm he started to laugh. He pulled himself up slightly and planted both feet on to the side of the boat then jumped over like a kid would a small fence. He landed back on the boat , noticing that some of the sailors were watching and shaking their heads. It seemed to Tatsu that they were just as eager to arrive to their destination, but clearly for different reasons. "I'm not that much trouble am I?" he wondered as he slumped down and sat next to his traveling companion.
He didn't know much about this guy other than the fact he used some sort of water magic. Tatsu had tuned out during most of that conversation with Heero as he explained the concept of slayers. Who had time to listen to lecture when there were pretty Fairy Tail girls duking it out over the last piece of pecan pie?! Whatever the case was, Tatsu didn't mind his temporary partner, he must have been strong if Heero had recommended the two to go on this mission. It sounded quite dangerous...the exotic land..the animals that lurked in the jungle, the hunters that they would encounter and god knows what else?! It sounded like a real blast and Tatsu couldn't wait to get there.
"LAND HOOOO!"
A smile came across the wizards face as his Emerald eyes lit of with excitement. He jumped up and set his gaze , peering through the dissipated fog to sea the silhouette of mountains in the distance, standing watch like sentinels over the great land of Joya. "C'mon Zero get up, its time to get the show on the road!"
