Spoiler:

Where was he, it was cold and dark. He was sitting in an upright position against a wall of some sort. He'd feel the cold metal of chains around his wrists and would extend his arms in an attempt to free himself to no avail. He made no audible noise because it was obvious what had occurred, he had been kidnapped, by whom was unclear but it was distinctly clear it had to be either one of two parties. Pirates or marines, those were the only two factions that could have possibly held ill will towards Tee. Getting out, no that wasn't the issue, the issue was preparing himself for what possibly could be awaiting him beyond the dark room and the shackles. He'd stand slowly by leaning against the wall for support and walk as far as he chains would allow which was only a few feet. The chains connected to the floor in some way, obviously there would be two different ways in which Tee could go about escaping. He could acquire a key, or simply break out with force. Usually force was his forte but sometimes one needed to finesse their way out of a situation, and that's just what Tee would do. Eventually somebody would come down to check on him or something and that's when he decided he would strike. Until then he sulked back down against the wall and nodded his head down as if still unconscious.

His patience was high because he knew his ever so slowly rising hunger for blood would be satisfied soon enough. The first victim being the next poor individual to step foot wherever the hell he was. Time seemed to remain stagnant because Tee couldn't tell if it were minutes or hours that had gone by but he heard multiple latches in front of him and then a door open in towards him letting in a blinding beam of light. Something he wasn't expecting, his eyes had just been beginning to get accustomed to the darkness, he was momentarily stunned and closed his eyes shielding his hands over his eyes to aid in protecting his eyes from the near blinding light that penetrated the once still darkness. Upon finally having his eyes accustomed to the light he'd look up to see two dingy looking men behind bars, meaning he was in a  cell of some sort. Standard metal bars to keep him in as well as shackles on the ground. He could tell he was on a ship given the amount of movement and way in which the movement occurred all around him.

The men came in joking and laughing about some obsolete topic, this however only helped to increase Tee's anger, he knew that in five minutes he would no longer be behind bars, and those two men would no longer be alive. Their deaths had already been replayed a multitude of times in his mind. One would find himself being suffocated and the other would quite literally be killed from the inside out. He'd watch them with the same ever changing emotionless face the entire time. They'd came in laughing and then directed their attention toward Tee, their prisoner merely to feel the need to laugh at his imprisonment. An action Tee would not respond to, with words anyway. They'd look at him and begin taunting and speaking to him and making references to him as if he weren't shit. However he ignored them, blocking them out knowing what was inevitably about to occur. The instant they turned their backs to the table in the far corner of the small five by five meter room with the cell being two by two in the corner Tee's hair would extend and grow longer and longer than it's normal proportions.

And only in a matter of seconds his hair would be  long enough to reach across almost the entire room. Two long thick strands would make their way toward the two pirate "guards" whom had their back turned to the table while they were busy conversing and doing whatever they were doing. Simultaneously one strand would make it's way quickly around the first guards neck, the second would force it's way into the second guard's mouth sprouting through all openings. The hair would travel up the nasal passageway suffocating him from the inside out. His eyes would pop out with the force of the hair within his body, his entire face dripping with blood drenching Tee's hair in the crimson bodily fluids. The first would attempt to grab the hair with both hands at a feeble attempt to allow him breathing room. His friend would have died within seconds however the first guard would have a slow death. He'd struggle, attempting to gasp for air and flailing his arms upon realizing that he had wasted time and energy trying to release the hair from his neck.

Flailing quickly turned to less and less movement and then eventually no movement at all. As Tee allowed the hair on his head that was once five meters to recede back to it's normal length the two bodies would drop to the floor rather obnoxiously. The second one's head hitting the table with force on the way to the ground. The table nearly flipped over, but didn't thankfully. Tee froze for a moment to listen half hoping nobody heard and half hoping somebody did so he would have a reason to quench his thirst for blood more. However although the guards were dead this did not solve hos problem, he was still chained to the floor and was still in a cage on a random ship. He came to the conclusion that the chains would be something he would have to deal with up until the point he found a key of some sort. The two pirates whom had initially entered didn't have one or at least not in plain site.

So slowly a strand would extend to the base of the chains that were connected to wooden rings and would pull against them pretty easily forcing them apart. Tee would still have his hands chained together similar to handcuffs however he would at the very least be mobile without hand usage. The chains however made a ridiculous amount of noise and with the door open it was hard not to be heard. To the right side of the halfway through the open door footsteps could be heard getting louder and louder.It was obvious reinforcements were coming to check out the situation. Either the men had taken too long or they heard all the noise, regardless Tee now knew he had to deal with at least two more threats being able to hear the footsteps and tell it was more than one individual. So his hair would extend once more, he'd anticipate the footsteps and when they'd get to the door and would have a sharpened hair strand trained at the door for the first one who entered.

Upon a glimpse of clothing the hair would project itself toward the first pirate penetrating skin in the middle of his forehead and penetrating quite a few inches deep. The wound definitely deadly the man if not dead on impact would have severe head trauma but regardless he would fall to the ground body limp. Two more would follow suit seconds behind him both meeting the same fate as the first. The hair which was still trained towards the door would go and simply strike the second entering pirate in the neck more towards his left side causing it to go through and stab the third pirate in the neck as well in the middle since they were for the most part lined up behind one another, albeit off slightly. The strands of hair would penetrate leaving both to suffer from blood loss as the blood would ooze from the various positions in their throats. Their eyes would widen as they wouldn't even be aware of what had happened until it had happened. Muffled screams of agony would hardly be heard as they attempted to apply pressure to the never ending flow of blood from the wound.

A smile would form upon Tee's face as his hair would slowly recede back to normal length. Drenched in blood from the opponents who had just lost their lives moments before. Tee would

WC:1396

Moments after the remaining pirates had ceased to live His hair would extend once more, however this time to his handcuffs. In order to go anywhere the first step stood in releasing himself from the hardly worthy of the name prison he had been confined to. Another bundle of hair would make it's way to the front of the cell. Wrapping almost vine like across the entrance, and heaving heavily with all it's power. This made the cell door budge however not completely displacing it, however it was more than enough for Tee to slip through, so that's what would occur the hair would at both the handcuffs and the door simultaneously, the desired result of having completely removed the handcuffs had occurred however removing the entire door was a no go. It was fine, all Tee needed was to be able to escape. He'd walk out the door which was the only way light had entered the cell he was currently in. Exiting led to a rather narrow hallway giving him two directions to choose from left or right. To the left he could see the hallway split into two other direction and had a multitude of rooms on the way down the hall on both sides.

Tee made no attempt to mask any noise at this point, he began to walk casually to the right where at the end of the hall a ladder leading upwards existed. This has to be the way to upper deck as Tee assumed that they were underneath the ship which was a pretty accurate assumption. He ascended up the ladder upon reaching it at the end of the hall and could see the beam of bright light that could only be sunlight from above in the day sky. So he was this much closer to finding his way off of the ship that he had no business being on in the first place. Climbing up the ladder he would feel in the back of the ladder were rubber grooves which aided in climbing up the ladder and finding ones grip while climbing. He stopped momentarily because he remembered vaguely an old friend who had once shared with him his idea of helping to add grips to ladders making a pirate ship more safe. He couldn't remember where he remembered this friend from but he knew it was somebody from back in South Blue probably before he had awoken on that island having been attacked by the pirates. That had really fucked up his memory but he brushed it off and kept climbing the ladder eventually reaching the top.

He'd look around shielding his eyes from the sun which seemed to blind him to no end. He'd look around, pirates performing regular duties keeping the ship operating carrying around barrels and the Captain at the helm of the ship bellowing with another mate about something. None of them had seemed to even acknowledge his existence up until Tee started to walk up to the captain who eventually noticed who he was. Or who he used to be, their prisoner, the pirates hand would go to his waist where a pistol would be holstered on his right hand side. At this distance of about seven meters away he could easily draw his weapon and shoot Tee before Tee could even think about getting closer than he was. By this time all movement had stopped and all eyes were on Tee and the Captain.

The other's hadn't joined in so it appeared to Tee that they were allowing him and the Captain of the ship duke it out one on one. This however being a mistake on their part Tee would relax himself looking seemingly into the soul of the Captain. "Listen, you captured me, so these will be your consequences" And upon finishing his last word he rush toward the opponent with a newfound speed he had not utilized thus far. Closing the distance between him and the Captain rather quickly and a swift punch to the jaw. While the captain was recovering from the blow Tee would swiftly with his free hand grab for the gun One Shot was reaching for previously and claim it as his. He'd cock it back and aim it point black at the Captain who would freeze in his tracks not particularly expecting this chain of events to occur. The Captain still frozen with either fear or surprise at the chain of events that had just occurred would find themselves in the same situation Tee had just found himself in. Tee would shout directly toward the Captain

"Get the fuck downstairs and into the cell"

He had no intention of repeating himself and should he have needed to a gun shot wound somewhere would probably be enough to convince the man to find his way down to their jail one way or another. He had pretty much taken over the ship, nobody dared combat him or make a false move for he had their Captain's life in his hands and they knew that it wasn't worth it. They were smart as well seeing as Tee had no qualms of shooting the Captain as opposed to jailing him however Tee preferred the man to be jailed. So he would see to it personally that the Captain was properly bound to the cell next to the one he resided in, in the same way Tee was bound if not tighter. As Tee reascended back to the top it appeared as though nobody had moved and Tee proceeded to close the way down into the ship which was the only way to the now bound Captain.

As he looked around there would be one man who looked to be rather familiar, he would walk up to Tee as if he knew Tee personally and say

"Remember me?"

Tee did not remember who the man was. He was about Tee's height a little more skinnier and Tee felt like he knew the man from somewhere but couldn't quite place where.

"You know back on Centauruea---"

He would keep talking but Tee would hear none of it, he had a flashback, the man before him younger far younger, they were kids even. His friend Kritus was staying over and his dad was as usual drunk and arguing with his mom. Tee was used to it but Kritus, was from a rather stable household and hadn't been exposed to such behavior. That night Tee and Kritus became close and it stunted their friendship which abruptly ended when Tee left and his memory loss didn't help the situation in the slightest.

Tee felt a wave of familiarity and peace encase him but then he remembered where he was and his goal and was back on alert as quickly as he had gotten off of it.

TWC: 2540

Stamina:

So now Tee was in control of everything, the crew all looked toward him as he emerged from below having subdued their captain to his own ship like a bitch. He owned that ship now and for a moment his childhood friend didn't exist, he simply ran things as of now. This was the first time he had been taken out of his element being captured and such, so finding his way back to his ship was essential and Tee knew he had to get information out of the crew that stood before him somehow. So pulling his former best friend aside he whispered innocently

"Where the hell are we?

He'd await the answer and would receive a rather prompt response at the same tone as his question.

"Where we are is of little importance but I can show you where your ship is."

This peaked Tee's interest and meant that Kritus was trying to stick with him for a while. Which is fine by Tee, but he had a hard time being alright with it. He was used to wanted to go solo and for once he didn't mind a plus one. This bothered him but he dismissed it as a simple change of moods before directing his attention back to Kritus with his response.

"Ok, that's fine--"

He was interrupted by the various shouts from pirates on deck shouting

"MARINES!! MARINES!!! MARINES!!!

Somebody had spotted a marine ship headed right towards them from the northwest direction directly to the ships left. A rather large ship proudly declaring the marine flag numerous times on the vessel. This gave Tee a rush however, being involved in most likely is to become a three party fight given the pirates, the marines and then Tee against both factions. However Tee welcomed the challenge and hardly cared that he could fairly easily die or worse that wasn't on his mind. What was on his mind was killing, it was familiar, something he always took comfort in doing and the fact was lately he had been feeling quite weird. He felt he was changing in ways he didn't mentally approve of but couldn't physically control. So perhaps bloodshed would ease that pain was his thought, so instead of running around frantic like the rest of the crew at this point he merely stood tall facing the marine ship awaiting what was to occur. As it enclosed pirates were at the ready having a line of full cannons on Que to fire. Then Tee realized who the fuck would be talking on behalf of the pirates since their captain was in custody. Tee would look back and seemingly on que the Captain would emerge from below smiling at Tee but ignoring him for the moment. The Marine Captain would emerge at the bow of the boat standing proud and tall over the pirates who's ship was significantly smaller than the marine ship, probably only slightly larger than Tee's Deathbringer.

"So what brings you here Fry? One Shot would shout towards the marine ship, no doubt that was the marines name and since they were on such familiar terms it was clear that this wasn't their first encounter and there was certainly some history between the two. Fry would simply respond,

"Can we not play this game anymore, just stop resisting capture and once your debt is paid to society we can all be just.

One shot merely laughed, a hearty laugh and would sigh and reply to the Marine Commander.

"Well you know which one i choose right?"

He'd ask while drawing out a gun from his holster, a plethora of marines fall forward from behind the before solo captain, rifles drawn and pointed down on the pirates who were currently at a disadvantage. Which meant Tee was at a disadvantage and he didn't like the odds. He needed a place he could at least take cover while the marines would open fire on One Shot and his crew. The obvious choice would be to go down and wait out the battle a little in the lower parts of the ship so that's just what Tee would do. He was rather hungry anyway, so before either party fired while they were just standing off with their firearms Tee would casually walk back toward the entrance to below the ship and start to descend. As he got lower he would hear the loud boom of cannon fire and the multitude of bullets both close and far being fired a few ricocheting inside of the entrance he had neglected to close, but none dared fall as far down as he was. So upon reaching the floor he'd begin aimlessly walking and would come across the kitchen after a few minutes if walking. He'd have passed the cell he was in and the cell One Shot had been in as well, peering in, his looked precisely the same as when he had left originally, aside from the five bodies which had been propped up against the bars of the jail probably to be given a burial later however that would need to be done in the next few hours or the whole ship would reek.

Tee would eventually come across a medium sized kitchen on his right hand side and would slide in. He could do for some food right about now, he hadn't eaten since he had awoken and had to deal with what he had today. So rummaging through all their amenities he'd find plenty of good food but something he found that particularly sparked his taste buds was the delicacy of the baby seal. Pushing everything else aside he would prepare the baby seal, raw, it had to be raw. He prepared it with spices and various condiments making it the perfect meal. The best he'd ever had, he bit into it messily no fork no spoon merely grasped it and brought it in close to his mouth. After a singular bite he was in heaven, cloud nine one might say having experienced a feeling of ecstasy only drugs could accomplish. He'd quickly engulf the meal and move on to the other items he had acquired from various places in the kitchen and begin to enjoy those as well. Although still not nearly enjoying them as much as he had the baby seal. After about twenty minutes of enjoying this hearty meal he'd slowly walk back towards the way back up to the outside of the ship. He'd slowly climb to hear less gunshots significantly and now they only appeared to be on One Shot's ship. Tee would emerge on to the main deck to see marines and pirates fighting all around him. A few marines would run towards him with swords drawn ready to attack. Tee merely slashed his arm horizontally at the marines, a wave of compressed air would be propelled outward toward the marines, effectively slicing their torso areas. Leaving deep laceration wounds on all three of them, blood loss would be quick and if not treated their deaths would be imminent. A few of the fights would cease and eyes would divert their attention to Tee whom had just downed the two marines. The marine captain, the man One Shot referred to as Fry had tossed a pirate to the side after having been strangling him previously upon seeing Tee do his men as dirty as he had.

Fry was simply attempting to stick up for his fellow marines and he initiated a fighting stance towards Tee, Tee took this as a test of strength and didn't initiate a fighting style but stood tall to show he wasn't afraid of going head to head with the marine even if he wasn't the strongest. The Marine would run toward Tee and when getting within a couple feet Tee would engage his go to engage his technique to make him as hard as iron but would hear a gunshot from his left. He wouldn't see the bullet but he'd see the effect it had. Hitting the Marine Fry square in the jaw and ricocheting away in a random direction. Fry stooped stood stunned and rubbed his head as if he had just been hit in the head as opposed to shot with a gun.

Somebody who could bounce bullets of their bodies was probably not somebody Tee would want to be going head to head with because he knew he wasn't capable of such feats, however he could kill somebody a hundred different ways with a spoon. So as his confusion dissipated he'd direct his attention once more to Tee, before getting bombarded with bullets from one shot who was quite accurately shooting a fully automatic weapon at the Marine Commander. And Fry was simply taking the bullets acting as if it was somebody punching him as opposed to shooting him, bounding off looking like moving vibrations. He'd reach One Shot and at that point Tee would avert his attention to whatever kept bumping into his arm to the right of him. It was Kritus,

"Let's go we can use this to go find your ship."

Kritus would point to a decent sized boat at the left side of the ship. They'd steady their way into it quickly and Kritus would press a button and the ship would descend into the water below.

TWC: 4107[/color]

The boat luckily wasn't a row boat and didn't require any manual labor to operate because Tee had no intentions of powering such a vessel. It ran on the power of a dial that operated like a motor but better and far more powerful allowing for the boat to move faster than the ship could move. Tee thought maybe if he incorporated the dial technology into his ships he could improve them significantly. Up until this point however him and his former friend were sitting in silence this could be Tee's time to ask how he'd been but he felt foreign in his new world with his new emotions he knew not how to go about a conversation with his old friend. He was almost scared, something he hadn't felt since his dad's first drunken rage. Scared not for his life or anything but certainly for his emotions. He was lost he didn't know how to feel so he simply asked a generic question.

"So how's it been after all this time?"

"Oh so you do remember me huh, well fuck you too."

Tee would think damn he deserved that but then be upset with himself for thinking that. Nobody else could have ever talked to him like that without their death being shortly after but Tee didn't feel the yearn to kill him in fact he felt the yearn to allow him to relieve himself upon Tee emotionally. It was the old him coming back, he'd slowly begin to remember how he was and how he currently was and the two versions of himself conflicted greatly with one another. He knew he was to keep acting how he had been for the past few months but he wanted so badly to go back to the old him. But he couldn't show that weakness so he had to slowly become a new him with the qualities of both.

However for now he had nothing further to say to his"friend" and would simply stay quiet the entire ride to his ship. Tee had no clue where they were and it was probably best that Kritus had brought Tee here anyway seeing as Tee had literally no clue where the fuck he was and he wasn't the best at taking directions. But there his ship was docked at some random dock on orange island it appeared to be.

"Here's your ship, now maybe I'll see you around"

Tee thought that was pretty dumb, the ocean was a vast place if they wanted to see one another again they'd have to make it happen but he was too surprised at what had occurred to really process saying anything to Kritus so he would merely nod in agreement. He'd give a casual wave as he climbed atop the dock and then onto his ship respectively. He'd remove the anchor and get Deathbringer ready to sail. Now Tee could finally just sail, and go after his goal more of becoming a more prominent pirate and entering the Grand Line. He began to think, he needed more and faster ways to become more prominent, and the best ways would be to go against the World Government and to fuck with prominent marines wherever he was. So he knew that if he wanted to become feared one easy thing he could do is just going around and killing or perhaps to be creative capturing marines wherever he went. He kept that in the back of his mind, he didn't have a problem killing any other faction however killing those two would probably yield the most benefit to him,

But when he was out of eyesight of Orange town he'd, look back and see however a looming familiar marine ship behind him. It was the exact ship of the Commander by the name of Fry. So it was obvious OneShot and his crew had lost the battle and had either been captured or killed by Fry. Tee wasn't precisely sure what Fry's power was but he knew bullets would only stun the man so Tee had to figure another way to incapacitate him because overpowering him was most likely not an option. Just like on One Shot's ship the marine ship which was not up on Tee's ship would loom over Tee's ship, however Tee would not give this ship time to setup and have the marines rain bullets down from above because unlike Fry Tee was not immune to bullets and thus needed an alternate plan to ensure his victory. So he would run up on the air seemingly floating but pretty much jumping on air and would Geppo all the way to the marine ship on their main deck.

They were gathered around their Commander, however there were only five subordinates some of which who had sustained minor injuries. it appeared the Commander had indeed suffered from that battle with the Pirates, it had diminished his numbers greatly but he himself was still left unharmed, so Tee would have to figure out a way to take care of Fry.

Off to the left Tee would see a stream of water in the distance, and the closer it got the more he would realize that it was Kritus on his dial boat, the stream of water being the water the dial repelled to maintain movement through the water. The marines would face their attention to Tee however not noticing that Kritus was coming along the left side although by the time he finally got up there Tee would have probably handled the situation already. So now with five basic marines and a Commander facing his way all Tee could really do was prepare himself for battle. Suddenly hair would grow rapidly from almost every position hair could come from except in the face area still allowing for Tee to see what he was doing. Hair would extend down and toward the marines, first toward the five basic marines completely engulfing them and crushing them in a trap of hair. The hair completely surrounding them on all sides given the large amount of hair that had been produced, it would be cast around them and quickly condensed to crush the five marines that had been dumb enough to allow themselves to be caught in such a basic technique. They would be crushed, some limbs would even be crushed entirely, but for the most part it was just lots of blunt damage and moderate wounds that would be suffered. Now the entirety of the hair on Tee's body would be drenched in blood when the hair had returned back to normal length. And he had blood all over him given the hair had originated from all over his body, but the hair on his head looked almost like it was purposely died red when in reality it was only red because of the blood that stained it. The Commander would merely blink before dashing towards Tee and delivering a punch to his stomach. But quickly his fist would vibrate and send Tee flying backward into one of the pillars holding up one of the flags. Easily cracking the wooden beam as Tee was sent flying into it.

So now Tee knew he didn't want to get close to this man, he wasn't stronger than him and apparently he has some type of ability that can repel his opponents away in a painful way. So now it was Tee's goal to defeat the man without the help of physical means or force. So for now he would need to stay away from him. The man rushed him again but this time Tee jumped back quickly not wanted to be within his range, but the man was within Tee's hair range and if used correctly Tee could kill the man with his hair without being forceful. So Tee would allow his scarlet stained hair to extend once more and flow as he dodged the Marine Commander Fry frantically. Then just as fry went to punch Tee once more Tee would allow his hair to surround fry but that was merely a distraction. The real attack was hair going up Fry's nose and mouth cutting off his breathing and going down his throat deep enough to puncture his esophagus. External injures he could probably prevent but internal not so much.

Fry struggled and struggled and pulled the hair from within his mouth and nose gasping for air while still holding the hair. He'd pull on it hoping to get Tee to budge but with the hair resisting and Tee there was no way he could pull Tee however he could vibrate him, and that's what he did. Vibrations would find their way all throughout Tee through his hair. Although it was significantly weaker it was still painful. Tee would extend his hair further and force it down Fry's throat once more still vibrating, this time however because the hair would be vibrating as well it would be vibrating within Fry and would literally tear up his insides. His own vibrations doing him in and leaving Tee damn near concussed. Kritus would climb over the edge of the boat seemingly on cue ready to fight sword drawn but not required, Tee would have handled it, a few of the marines were probably still alive but Tee had no interest in ending their lives with Kritus around.

"So want to catch up, my ships right down there?"

He'd say pointing at his ship below the ship they were currently on. Kritus would nod.

TWC: 5700

Now on Tee's ship standing on the deck with the ship stationary and the marine ship behind looming still above Tee before him and his friend caught up had to disrespect the marines. But no this time he wouldn't simply destroy the ship he would leave the ship here for somebody to find because somebody would indeed find it. He would defile the marine jolly roger he'd climb up to each of the three tall proud marine flags take them all down and draw his jolly roger on them making it clear who had done this work here. Now immediately the marines might nit be clear what the symbol was that was covering their marine insignia but eventually they would know that it belongs to the Death Pirates. That would be the name of the pirate crew Tee was to eventually put together. The Death Pirates with perhaps Hakai would join and perhaps Tee's old friend had he any useful skills in Tee's eyes.

So upon defiling the flags Tee would rehang them proudly, he'd continue to defile anything marked as the marines with his own mark including the dead marines uniforms themselves even going as far to replace each badge the Commander owned with his mark. He cared little for what they stood for because now sharing Tee's mark they'd all be unified to declare one meaning Tee's dominance over any and all that opposed him and this was simply something he wanted to make clear. So now both Tee and Kritus made their way to Deathbringer and Tee headed off in some random direction not quite clear where he was going in the slightest.

"Orange is back that way"

Kritus would say while pointing northeast, Tee would redirect the vessel in the direction he pointed since he had no real goal anyway orange town would be his goal. Besides he had to pick back up Hakai whom he had casually left there anyway. So now more carefully Tee would attempt to gain information about the past with Kritus without making him upset or anything.

"So how'd you wind up in that crew man?

Tee would ask, Kritus would respond casually with a

"Well after you left, when i found out about what you went to go do, I knew it was time for me to do so as well, we were supposed to do it together though.

"Yea i know i know, it's not too late to do it the right way though"
Tee would say with a slight genuine smile on his face. The first genuine smile in weeks since Tee had hit his head and lost his memory. He had not REALLY smiled, maybe false smiles to get what he wanted but a real one with emotion behind it, no hadn't yet occurred and this was why Kritus scared him so much. He made Tee feel they had too much history but Kritus would help Tee become a new version of himself not at all like the old one or the current one. It would be one reborn form the ashes as if a phoenix in the flames, and the change was simply Tee getting reacquainted with his personality and actions. Upon docking on the island damn near immediately marines would pull up in the docking station opposite to Tee glaring him down intensely. They knew who he was and what he had done, marines piled off the ship and down the narrow docks and traversed their way to Tee himself. They had essentially trapped him, his only options to make it past them or to go back and sail on his ship. But leaving wasn't an option so fighting was what was going to happen.

Four marines rushed towards the two Tee not knowing weather or not if Kritus was capable of holding his own in combat despite the sword on his back decided to treat him like he didn't have any combat prowess and had already mentally prepared himself to take on all the marines solo. He had to devise a plan because he didn't want to waste all of his energy dealing with these low level marines after having fought a multitude of characters today who knew who else he would have to fight today before he got a chance to actually take a rest. So as they rushed Tee would rush toward them as well and in two swift movements all four would meet a finger penetrating their throats to their necks. Since they were in a row the first two to meet this fate would be the two on each respective end. Tee would extend his arms outward almost as if he had wings killing each with the pointer finger of each of his respective hands.

Then pulling inward quickly almost instantly he would repeat the technique however these enemies would be closer together. That would be the only difference in the disposal of the second pair of marines. The four bodies would fall limp to the ground and the other marines would stop in their tracks proceed to retrieve their rifles from their backs knowing good and well that rushing Tee wasn't going to work but utilizing their rifles might. Little did they know that the rifles would be nearly as useless as running up on Tee would be. So now with roughly eleven marines left remaining and eleven rifles pointing towards him currently Tee was not quite sure how to get out of this situation, but then Kritus would appear behind one of the marines slashing upwards with his large two handed sword. Most likely causing a deep laceration from the burst of blood flying backwards Tee would see as well as the near instant collapse on the floor of the marine. The rest of the marines would then direct their attention back directing their rifles toward Kritus as well but Tee would use this to his advantage much like Kritus had and allow his hair to quickly extend once more.

His hair would travel toward the marines swiping at their feet similar to as if a large rope had swung horizontally across against their feet causing them to all fall to the ground. With them all falling it was now open season for Kritus and Tee. Kritus would slash abundantly with his sword leaving lots of blood in his wake and Tee would go with the far more precise and less messy tactic of his finger pistol simply penetrating into the marines necks leaving a trickle of blood and fucking up their breathing by ensuring he punctured their windpipes. And just like that 15 marines had been defeated right there on the docks of Orange Town, but it also showed Tee that he was no longer safe here at Orange Town or perhaps even East Blue as a whole. Marines had never been after him this much, even in South where he originated from. However he had done a little more than he usually did today so that could be a huge part of it. So for a while Tee would stay docked at Orange Town talking to Kritus relaxing and catching up with one another.

Kritus had helped Tee remember a great deal, and had Tee opening up like he hadn't done in forever. He was getting comfortable once more and beginning to open his shell. He almost thought to calming down a little bit. But just when the conversation got good and they began to talk about the time Tee had beat up a kid for stealing his milk back in school more marines showed up from inland probably heard about what happened, and with all those marine bodies in front of Deathbringer it was bound to bring trouble and for once Tee didn't want to kill the marines any more. So he undocked Deathbringer letting her loose into the free ocean, bringing them wherever the wind would be taking them because frankly as usual Tee had no clue where he was going.

Kritus again began to direct Tee to a location where they would be able to chill and talk in peace without having to worry about random pirates or Marines who might be trying to take the two in for their Pirate backgrounds. After a few hours it was starting to get dark and the harder Tee looked the more it looked like they were approaching a giant boat.

"What the hell is that ship out there?"

Tee would ask half squinting.

"It's the Baratie, a very famous neutral restaurant, a fantastic location to simply sit down and talk"

For a second Tee got the awkward feeling that his friend was attempting to wine and dine him but then those notions quickly disappeared. Tee would simply continue to head in the direction of the large boat imaging what it could possibly be like and if they served baby seals. As Kritus went on to explain what they were known for and the history behind the place Tee was only half listening however as once the thought of baby seals being at that world class restaurant all other thoughts went out the window, the only other thing Tee would be focused upon would be steering the ship in addition to the baby seals. Upon docking at the restaurant Kritus would be leading the way as if he had been there a multitude of times before. They would be seated at a table, and the inside would be quite luxurious, pretty much what you would expect from a world class restaurant on the water nonetheless. It was one of a kind, upon taking their seats the waiter would hand them each a menu attempting to make small talk.

Tee would simply pass back the menu and say

"Baby seal, that's what i want"

He did not look at the waiter nor acknowledge him after that because he existed for no other purpose then to delegate his food. Ensure it got delivered to this table, Tee also didn't care weather or not they had it on the menu because they would indeed be making this dish today one way or another. However to Tee's surprise the waiter would say in a slightly excited tone

"Sure we'll have that right out for you sir"

Tee was surprised but he didn't show it Kritus appeared to know what he wanted as well but Tee didn't even hear what he said because he wasn't paying him any attention at the time.

"So your a pirate Tee?

Kritus would ask him, a pretty dumb question but he would let that slide and simply go on to answering the question.

"Yes but my crew isn't set up yet, i got one guy who might be in my crew but he up and disappeared In orange town and it's been a few days so he could be anywhere.

So after a little more conversation the food would come and the baby seal that they brought out looked amazing. It was as if they had read Tee's mind it was raw, which most people would have gotten wrong, cooking it got rid of all the raw flavors that keeping it uncooked contained. And then lightly seasoning it with seasons of their choosing, Tee would take a messy bite, and somehow it was raw but he bit through it and it was like biting into butter. It was so smooth and seamless, whoever made it deserved to be labeled a food god. So in between bites Kritus seemed to be getting annoyed probably because of the way that Tee was eating but he didn't care in the slightest he would enjoy his meal and social norms would not stop that process.

Soon others from other tables would begin to on look as well still however Tee didn't care in the slightest and proceed to finish his meal in the most slobbiest of fashions. It was obvious Kritus was ticked off but he didn't say anything. Tee being done and all and in a particularly good mood after the splendid meal he just had would call the waiter over obnoxiously and demand another meal of the same variety. If they could deliver twice Tee might just have to have the chef join his crew. But as soon as he ordered Kritus would cry out,

"No!! Don't get that shit I'm tired of listening and having to watch your obnoxious ass Tee"

Tee merely looked at Kritus and laughed coldly.

"Who the fuck do you think you are telling me what I can and can't eat?"

The waiter would disappear to retrieve Tee's food anyway but Tee and Kritus would continue arguing developing the situation into a scene.

"Look I'm eating my meal regardless if you have a problem with it you can do something about it"

Tee would say coldly upon taking a seat and remaining silent until the waiter came back. Kritus however remained standing arms folded, staring coldly at Tee for a few moments then diverting his gaze to the set of double doors that lead to the kitchen beyond. After a few minutes the waiter would emerge with food that was not Tee's getting his hopes up, Kritus had shifted quickly then shifted back to his original position upon realizing it wasn't Tee's food, however Tee was interested to see what Kritus had planned when Tee's food came out. Even tho Kritus did hold many dear memories Tee wasn't against fucking him up in the slightest, and that was obviously the new him talking. So finally after about twenty minutes the waiter walks out with two trays of food brings one to another table adjacent to the duo and then comes over to Tee hesitant. Tee outstretched his arms in an attempt to receive the food but then all you would see if the entire dish flying in the air. Baby seal flew everywhere and high as hell, Tee made no movements, he was shocked for once.

Kritus has smacked the dish upward, and there lay the fresh delicacy of baby seal on the floor being wasted.

"What the fuck"

he would say as he rose from his seat.

Kritus would unfold his arms and take a step toward Tee, after a few seconds of being chest to chest Kritus would push Tee, which would result in the immediate reaction of Tee lunging toward Kritus with a punch to the cheek. Kritus would be temporarily stunned but would respond with a punch of his own to Tee's stomach. But Tee wasn't having it, this time he sent a punch toward Kritus with all his power and effort behind it. When it connected with Kritu's jaw he would be sent flying back a few feet. But would get up as if nothing had occurred and slowly walk toward Tee, now drawing out his two handed sword. Tee took this as him wanting a death wish and would automatically shed himself of all emotions.

In battle emotions held one back and had no place, just as Tee would prepare himself to attack Kritus voice would echo throughout the restaurant from the right of Tee and the left of Kritus respectively.

"Who the hell wasted this food on the floor?"

Kritus would look over and then look back to Tee and say

"I did is that a fucking proble-"

But before even finishing his sentence the man that was once across the room about ten meters away now stood where Kritus once stood a few feet from Tee and Kritus was launched across the room toward a couple empty tables demolishing them immediately. The man had move from all the way over there and had kicked kritus with such force it sent him flying. This was a man Tee had interest in, especially since he was technically defending the baby seal. Tee would almost begin to ask if he could make the baby seal dish again when the man who was a few feet from him would send a kick flying in his direction. A dodge would be swift, however a counter attack was necessary Tee would send a flurry of punches at the chef who would as easily as Tee had dodged the chef's kick, Tee's punches would find themselves being dodged, each and every one of them. Far too easily by the chef. Then with blinding speed, the chef would launch a flurry of five kicks at Tee's midsection the last hitting him straight in the chest, propelling him back similar to Kritus.

"Now stop fucking fighting in my restaurant and you, I'll show you to waste food here."

He'd say pointing at Kritus who still was trying to stand tangled in the now broken pile of chairs and tables. The man would walk casually toward Kritus but Tee simply saw this as an opportunity to strike. Tee would show him turning his back on an opponent was a big mistake. Tee would seemingly disappear moving at blinding speeds toward the chef who turning his back with the powerful kick. Tee had no reason to hold back knowing the chef was capable of what he was capable of. So moving at blinding speeds when within a few meters his hair would begin to extend and now behind the chef would completely entangle around the chef, a move that should have left him immobilized and open to an attack.

However all he did was raise his leg so his knee was to his chest and kick outward completely destroying the hair. He'd turn around and look at Tee and thrust his leg that was to his knee at Tee. Tee made no attempt to move because he was too far for his leg to reach however a wave of compressed air was launched at Tee propelling him back once more. That was the last thing Tee remembered before waking up on his ship face up with the ship sailing to god knows where. He looked around, no sign of the Baratie, or his "friend" this could very well have been the last time he saw them and Tee had no clue where he was headed to, he was right back to square one.
