Job Title: Find the "One Piece"
Rank: B
Player Requirements: B rank or 2 C rank minimum. 4 max allowed on the job.
Job Requirements: 40 posts minimum, with a minimum word count of 300 per post. Can only be completed once for a character.
Job Location: Divide Island
Job Description: A new job request has appeared on the job boards all over Fiore. A map to a mystical item has been uncovered, and points to Divide Island as the location of the buried treasure. The sailor that made the job is offering to ferry a group of up to three mages over to help in uncovering the treasure. As payment, he will allow you to keep some of the jewels found, but the majority will go to him! As a warning in the job, he mentions a pirate and his crew have stolen the map and are already on the island searching for the "One Piece" in the hopes of getting it first. Get to the island, defeat Blackstache the pirate, and then uncover the treasure using the map dropped by the boss. It is said that this treasure is what really caused the divide that the island is named after.

You must meet up with the captain of the ship at the Hargeon Town main docks, where he will discuss with you what you are doing before setting sail for Divide Island. No one knows what the "One Piece" is, but he goes on and on for the entirety of the trip over sea about how "He just can't let the pirates have it." After the pirates are defeated, you must actually find the buried treasure on the island and dig it up. (Must roll an attack dice for each person that digs to see if you dug in the right spot.)
Enemies:
Weak:
Midget Brigands x3
These midgets have a strange habit of wearing pots as hats growing giant mushrooms out of them. They only attack physically, and are pretty weak, dealing 1 C rank of damage per hit. Take 1 B rank damage to defeat. Don't make fun of them, or they will try to swarm the person laughing.

Normal:
Hammer Wielding Pirates x2
These pirates are trained in throwing hammers as their course of attack. Both have an unlimited of hammers, and can throw four per turn and deal B rank for each that hits. Take 3 B rank to defeat. While good at throwing the hammers, they are terrible when within melee range and will instead try to back up to throw their weapons.

Strong:
Blacksatche's Pet: Anomaly, the tamed vulcan.
Blackstache had managed what some thing to be impossible; taming a vulcan! The vulcan attacks physically, and once per turn will throw explosive barrels at each person in the party. Physical hits deal B rank damage, the barrels dealing A rank damage. Takes 10 B rank hits to defeat. Only one can be rolled. Any more of them will be turned into 2 normal rolls.

BOSS: Blackstache

The leader of the pirates you are racing for the "One Piece" that is said to be the reason for Divide Island's divide. As an A rank wizard Blackstache has his own unique make magic, Cannon Make Magic. He is able to create cannons that can fire any type of object out of them, which are also made with the magic. Shots fired from the cannon deal A rank damage to all that get hit. Takes 15 B rank hits to take down.

Reward:
10k jewels
B rank Exp + 1 Extra rank of B Exp.
One person in the group gets the legendary "One Piece," a one piece bikini that fits any who wears it; and can change color at will.

They were surprised as the girl had no care. She was beautiful in Zeno's eyes, though she had quite a scary aura which was telling them not to mess with her.

They would watch as Marianna mercilessly tricked the man, suddenly he got closer towards her, spouting out nonsense as if it was his wife. Then it happened, in mere seconds his throat was attacked by a blood-sucking devil which seemed to deem life as nothing but a pebble on a road. Seeing this would make the two gulped loud enough for her to hear, though they were more shocked then they had ever been, they decided too play it cool as suddenly the infectious madness the girl bared was gone, the sunlight which shone so brightly to the point where one would be blinded by a quick look at the blazing fiery was also gone. The skies were dark, fitting the blood-sucking vampires aura which seemed to be more bloodthirsty than ever. But it got worse, her aura would darken more than ever as she began to completely devour the captains body, piece by piece she would devour mercilessly, going as far as possibly eating the booty like groceries. This was a first for the two as they decided it would be wrong to interrupt her meal. As they slowly backed off, they would slowly think what was she? a vampire? she had to be. She was quite evil, a little indecent, and she just ate a whole goddamn body so that's telling them something. What was even more confusing was that Marianna would cry as she devoured him, it was if she didn't want to but had to. And they were in no position to stop her because they were slowly backing away, making sure that they themselves don't get devoured by Marianna or get caught in her infectious madness which had no effect on them before because they were simply angry and focused on nothing else except their goal, but in this case, they should be running for the hills. Though instead, the turned around, and let Marianna do her thing, they knew that everyone had their secrets, and this must be hers, so did the right thing by facing the other way and waiting for her to finish her non-humane meal which seemed to last for a long time considering she was devouring the whole body.

"Umm..we should probably get to digging for that treasure, so we'll go on ahead while...you uh, do your thing." Zeno would say awkwardly as they would begin digging everywhere for hidden loot, mention one spot on that island and they had definitely checked it, though they were too naive to actually search under the cave where Blackstache and his crew where.

OOC : Kind of lost muse here :/ I'll try better next post.

The member 'Arz' has done the following action : Dice Rolls

'Damage Dice' :

They would continue digging non-stop as the dirt would rise up from beneath its calm surface because of them planting and pulling their hands out of the dirt so fast. By now, they had given up on finding the treasure and wondered if the sailor would still pay them for doing his dirty work. But then they realized in awe that the treasure was what the sailor was using to pay them. They would begin to cry in a way that would make others laugh as they tears fell in a comical way. Oddly, they would begin to pray by bowing on the ground and lifting their head back up, "Oh God! How will we buy food!? This job was our only chance of getting some decent house and food money!" Zeno would cry, still bowing up and down like an idiot while his furry flying companion, Tito, would do the exact same. This would probably let people believe they were crazy, food addicted idiots. And that was pretty accurate as that could describe those energetic fur-balls easily. They would stop bowing eventually and look up at the sky, this time, they were completely quiet, not even an squeak would be heard. This was most likely they're tired phase were they just daydreamed the rest of the day like complete utter idiots, but it felt nice, so it wasn't that bad. But they were woken up by footsteps not far away, so they made it look like they weren't slacking and got back to digging. As the footsteps got clearer, they already knew they had beaten all the pirates, except for that poor one that was devoured. So it was obvious that it was Marianna, and as she came, she would walk towards a tree and lean on it. But this time she wasn't in her devilish, cold-blooded form, rather her beautiful humanoid self.

They would try not to make direct eye contact with her as they were pretty shocked considering what they saw. So it was quite reasonable for the two to be quite flustered by her sudden 'true form' and her 'cold-blooded self' which was not a good mix, probably not the greatest when she was angry. So the two would stay quiet and continue digging, trying to make sure they don't push her over the edge, even though she said something bad about his best friend, Zeno and Tito were kind and forgiving people, so they had most likely already forgotten about it. Suddenly her heavenly voice would reach out to them as she pulled out a piece of cotton like fabric out of her attire which was quite bloodied, probably from the incident where she ate a whole damn person. The fabric she pulled out would be later be explained by her to be a map, which he also explained that he was pointing further east, which was convenient, since that way was where the ship was. And also the spot where all the trees were cut down and there were holes everywhere. "If that's correct, then that means the pirates searching there did a lousy job." Tito would say as he made an awkward giggle.

They would end up dashing towards the patch of cut down trees, each step making a crater as the small pieces of rock and dust would float up because of the pressure that was put on the ground. As they ran, Zeno would think why the sailor was so greedy about the treasure anyway, possibly he just wanted to be rich. Or he wanted something that was valuable to him that was in there. That was something they would never know without getting the treasure to him. They had already beaten all the pirates and the only bit left was the hard part, finding the treasure which was so close yet so far. As they would finally see the view of the patch of cut down trees, they would begin to slow down their pace and walk towards it cautiously, making sure there was no pirates left preparing for a sneak attack, which would end in the pirates demise, but it was still better to be careful. 

After checking the area cautiously they would walk towards the spot where the map said the treasure was. "Well, apparently it's right here!" Zeno would yell, waving to his companions as he stood over the exact spot that the map said where the treasure was. "The pirates were too dumb to even read the map properly." Tito would say as he shrugged and sweated at the pirates stupidity. Suddenly Zeno would encase his fist which was gripped tightly with crimson flames and crimson lightning which flickered around the flame encased hand. He would then smash the fist into the ground multiple times until a gold piece was shining from the ground, making Zeno and Tito look at each other with a wide grin across their faces exactly like when they would be eating a delicious food. They would continue digging until the chest was quite clear, but the bad thing was that the chest needed a key. "What the hell!?" Zeno would yell as he would slap himself so he could imagine the lock wasn't there, but it was. "Well, they wouldn't keep treasure in a chest without something to keep it locked in there, would they?" Tito would say logically, "Plus, you can't open it with force, Zeno, because you would most likely disintegrate it. We're in quite of a predicament here!"  Tito and Zeno would begin bowing again, until they stopped and looked at Marianna. "You didn't happen to find a key from the pirates, did you?" Zeno would ask as his crimson orbs would gaze into her soul.

OOC : You can make it that the sailor had it or, the key from the blackstache. Or if there is any other thing that you can do to unlock it.

As they would listen to Marianna, they would recognize she was right. They were just not using Zeno's magic in the right way. Sure, his fire can be explosive and can disintegrate things, but maybe if he was able to concentrate all the explosive fire into the lock, it would most definitely disintegrate and they would gain complete access to the treasure chest. So without an ounce of hesitation, Zeno would grab the lock firmly, concentrating his crimson flames into his palms, slowly making the the golden lock melt, causing it to drip on the ground, disintegrating some of the surface, it would then harden on the surface. Zeno would look at Tito and Marianna with a wide grin across his face, then redirecting his vision back to the treasure chest as he slowly opened it. Showing the majestic views of luxurious money and a....one piece bikini. They're jaws would drop as they saw the bikini, deciding that it would be best for them not to inquire about it and instead just pick it up and take it to the sailor which was waiting patiently for them on his ship. Though they had only a 30 meter walk, they would enjoy it as they had no more fighting to do. Just a peaceful walk towards the sailor's boat, and getting their reward is all they had left to do, and of course sail back to the Hargeon Docks.

 

As they would venture through the forest to get out, they would notice that many animals had been exploring, possibly because they had defeated the pirates and now they are at peace. Maybe the animals were hiding the whole time because they were scared of the pirates taking their land. But right now, they were no better than the pirates, they had killed many of them, going as far as completely eating the flesh of one of them. Zeno couldn't be proud for what he had done, he had reacted wrong, he should have stopped her, he should of just defeated them and left.
