[b]Chapter Twenty Four[/b]
"I told you, she got on one of the ships to Southern Tatakoi." The shadow told Royal. After Lilly had gotten away he went back to the bar, where he found out Jospeh had gotten to the hospital. He needed to know where he could find Lilly, and now he had a favour in with the shadow. "My sources say she hasn't arrived yet. But you have to get on a boat and catch her Royal."
[spoiler]For Roy[/spoiler]
English
-
"I'm getting a little sick of this Chase. Wish I could just activate my powers or something." He said, to no in particular as he looked at the shadow and extended a hand "I owe you one, thanks."
-
He felt an invisible force kick him in the balls as the Shadow took the handshake. "Ya, no problem Royal. Now you best be on your way, otherwise that girl is as good as gone."
-
He visibly flinched from the kick, taking a step back but forcing a smile. "See you..." Roy said, turning around and stumbling out the club
-
As he walked out into the street, he knew he would have to take a boat out of the city. So, Royal did just that. He made his way to the docks of Teluria where he was soon able to buy a ticket that was heading to Tatakoi. The ship was massive. It had a steel hill and probably four dozen windows that must have been cabins for passengers. As he stood by the ramp leading up to the ship, he saw he bought a ticket for a cruise ship.
-
"Time for some fun...." Royal said to himself as he boarded the ship
-
As he walked up a small brunette woman in a red uniform handed him a pass card. "Here, so you can get to your room. Enjoy your stay!" She told Royal. The card had the words "Room 64b"
-
"Thanks." Roy said simply, headed deeper into the ship
-
The ship was incredibly fancy with expensive wood floors and other ridiculously high maintenance items. Royal made his way to his room, which seemed to be in the middle of the cruise ship.
-
"Nice place." He said to himself as he found his room and went inside
-
The lights came on in the room. There was a queen sized bed ahead of Roy and an Aquarium in the wall behind the bed. The room was square shaped and on the left wall there seemed to be a large digital clock that covered it that gave Royal the time. It was 8:00pm, and Royal had just realized how tired he was. The trip to the coast would take probably three days... So he had plenty of time to rest.
-
"Nice place." Roy said, going into the bathroom to brush his teeth
-
The bathroom was white and tropical with small palm trees in jars that rested on the granite sink and other such items.
-
He grabbed a standard hotel issued toothbrush and some toothpaste, wetting the brush and putting on the paste After brushing his teeth, he took a hot shower, with steam fogging up much of the room He rearmoured afterwards and checked the time
-
It was 8:30. Wow-wee! [spoiler]Its still the same old room lol[/spoiler]
-
"Might as well get some rest." Roy said, casting a ward over the door that, if forcibly opened, would lead to an empty room He jumped onto the bed, falling asleep instantly
-
It seemed almost instant when he awoke. The large clock on the side of the wall stated it was 9:00am... Two days from when Royal had last gone to bed.
-
"Nice. Needed the sleep." He said with a long yawn as he got to his feet
-
There was a small schedule on the wall that stated that breakfast would be served in ten minutes, and that he was supposed to make his way to the main deck for that.
-
"Dope." He said, going off to the main deck
-
As he arrived there he saw dozens of people sitting down and eating already. There were probably a hundred tables set on the deck and there was a large buffet that looked like it was being prepared for the occupants. Royal couldn't help but hear meaningless things as he made his way to a seat. People were talking about the latest fashion, the newest tech, their own incredibly difficult problems like doing the laundry...
-
"Fúcking idiots...." He mumbled to himself as he found and took his seat
-
Royal smelt the bacon in the air and could hear it sizzling on a nearby grill. Now he smelt a variety of foods, all of which made him hungry. But, this was short lived. He saw a large group walk to the main deck. They all wore the familiar white suits with black Kevlar and each one had a pistol strapped to their hips. Coldbourne's. That being said, they too were talking in leisure....
-
His outfit suddenly changed to that of a vacationer, trunks meant for swimming, a Hawaiian T-shirt and large Sombrero for a hat, to cover his face
-
Fashion sense, 10/10. The Coldbourne's sat down at some of the empty tables surrounding royal and continued to talk. They didn't see him, from the looks of it.
-
He got up from the table, moving over to the buffet and stocking up on food, going back to his chair
