The little sky pirate sobered slightly upon the arrival of Zed. Her fingers curled tightly against TFs jacket as he wrapped his arm around her, glaring hatefully at the Shadow Master.
"...no." She said, remaining rather uneven on her feet. When TF challenged him to a game, she looked curiously up at the gypsy and smirked a bit before nodding, "Yesh.." giggling in her inebriated state.

Zed's eyes shone bright with anger at Kuromei's disobedience, and at the gypsy. He flicked his arm blades open and closed in rapid succession, a clear sign of his irritation. Shadows around the room flickered to life and moved erratically around the room, almost like a sea of darkness. They way they moved almost seemed to make the room shake, the darkness becoming oppressing.
"I have no quarrel with you, Card master, step aside and allow me to take the girl, do not let your sense of "chivalry" cause any problems." Zed rumbled, the underlying threat clear. Zed was not in the mood for this, at this very moment ninja's at his temple were most likely being slaughtered, "I suggest you move away from my apprentice before I get violent." The threat blunt and clear this time.
Three runes, black in color, would arrange themselves in a triangle beneath TF, silent, the only trace of them was visual. Zed's eyes narrowed at TF, he would not partake in this game, he was here for the girl and nothing was going to stop him, all resistance would be eliminated, whether by force or persuasion.
Shadow people follow him everywhere he goes. Looking over his shoulder, the paranoia flows.
Sky noticed something beneath TF and frowned, wrinkling her brow quickly with worry. "God damnit." She cursed as the intoxication slowly began to melt away. It would take a bit, but given the tension and the adrenaline rush of the situation she no longer was able to enjoy it. She turned to TF, discreetly sliding her fingers into her jacket before raising her hands up to wrap around his shoulders.
"I gotta go.." She said in a slightly pouty voice, sliding her hand down his chest before she'd move it to his hand and slipped the origami crane into TFs hold. Her fingers caressed between his as her other hand would rise up to draw his head down. She'd whisper lightly in his ear, "I'm sorry.. Don't follow us.. It's too dangerous." Drawing back, Sky cupped his cheek and, like on the airship some months ago, would draw him into a long, lingering kiss allowing it to deepen as it might.
Unfortunately she wouldn't be able to keep it for too long. As she slipped away, she would turn to Zed and grudgingly make her way towards him. A hateful look set in those ethereal violet eyes.
"This had better be fucking good, Zed." Glaring daggers at him as the distance was closed between them. She didn't want anyone to get hurt over her - especially not TF.

"My, my, a soft spot for the gypsy, I would have thought you could do so much better, Kuro." Zed mocked. As Kuromei reached him he began his technique, with a few quick snaps of his arms and hands another portal formed against the door behind him, "In you go." He growled at her. Shadows would again flicker to life in the room, giving anyone who would try to stop him second thoughts.
Zed chuckled lightly as he called to the barkeeper, "Sorry for the interruption, my apprentice just doesn't know when to quit." Zed was fully aware of kuro's drunken state, it would only make his plot more interesting. Two shadow clones sprung from the shadows, grabbing Kuromei by her arms, making sure she wouldn't try anything. She was his most reluctant student and he felt he could never be too careful with her.

Twisted Fate had made a plan, he was going to get Gangplank involved in this as well as the other patrons of the bar, but right as he sorting through the cards he would use to pull of that maneuver when Sky's hand put something into hand and he felt her fingers slip away.
Twisted Fate leaned forward and took the kiss as long as he could. It had been too long since he had done that, but now their brief reunion was cut short by a ninja from the shadows. This pissed the Cardmaster off, but Sky told him not to. As she drew away he lifted up his hat a bit so she could see his golden eyes glow. "Alright darlin' whatever ya' say. Just be careful..." He trailed off but when the shadows sprung and grabbed Mai he almost leaped to action.
He tipped his hat to her, as a sign of farewell, "Ah'm sure Destiny will have us meet again soon." As much as he hated to see her go, the gypsy had a funny feeling it would be sooner rather than later.

Sky scowled lightly, "Like you?" She snapped back at him, "No thanks." She nearly remarked about him and his shadows, but cut herself off before she managed to push things too far. Sky reluctantly would make her way towards the portal, glancing back at TF with a deepening frown. She didn't want to go. This wasn't fair! But what choice did she really have?
As she felt the hands of shadows grasp her shoulder, and shove her forward into the portal, a series of Ionian curses would escape her lips before disappearing into the darkness. This did not please her in the slightest. Not at all. But at least TF was safe.. And she was sure they'd see each other again. Hopefully soon.
The origami crane twitched within TFs hold after the portal would close, slipping free if it allowed it to before unfolding in front of him to be read.
I knew it'd come to this.. He'd take me away before I had a chance to explain some things. I made a mistake, and tried to get information.. Got caught, and here I am now.. because Zed managed to save me from being killed. Can't say much.. But if I fuck up, I'm dead. And by dead, I mean probably gutted and strewn across Ionia. Not really very appealing. I'll tell you a story next time we meet.. I'm sure you got a few to share, too. Will send you cranes when I can. They'll always be able to find you. Sorry... and.. I miss you.."

Gangplank breathed a sigh of relief when Zed left without any blood spilt. Last thing he wanted was a fight, especially when he was half drunk.
Fate looked disappointed at Skys leaving, but he knew that the Cardmaster would find her again. He had a habit of running into people of his past, even the ones he didn't want to.
He turned to Scrod, his last opponent in the contest. He didn't know how he felt, but Gangplanks mood had definitely soured. Also his mind had somewhat cleared from the threat of a ninja.
"Ah' dun feel like drinking now more Scrod. Pot's yurs if you want it."
He leaned in closer to the old gunman. He didn't want anyone to hear what he said. "If yer' looking for some work, I be lookin' for some extra help. I be sailin' to Demacia in a fews days with some important cargo. If yer' interested, see me after."

Zeds presence was enough to get Scrod to start thinking straight again, he could tell there was tension in the room and something might have gone down had Zed not finally left, taking Sky with him.
Something about Zed rubbed Scrod the wrong way, and it wasn't just because he was taking Sky away obviously against her will. Even though he was completely smashed he could tell he was dangerous and full of malice, and as much as he wanted to just floor the ninja he knew it'd probably be futile. Even if he wasn't piss ass drunk. That aside he definitely perked up when he heard GP call the contest he'd almost forgotten about.
"So...I win huh? It aint uhh, how I thought it'd go down but...HAH, Ol' Scrod's leavin' 'ere 3000g in the green!" he slurred out, still a little drunk.
Taking out his pipe to toke it a few times, he listened closely to Gangplanks proposition when he leaned in and sat there thinking. Sure he was a retired merc and no longer at his prime, but that didn't mean he couldn't still get the job done. Then there was the fact that possibly one of the most rich, famous and feared pirate of Bilgewater was asking him himself to join his crew. Worst case scenario he figured, was that he'd die in a blaze of glory instead of old age and that was ok in his book.
"Alrite then GP I'm in...I'll sail fer' your brand, when you plannin' on leavin' n' whatnot?" he managed to reply without slurring anymore somehow, it was probably whatever he had in his pipe that helped sober him up a bit.

Twisted Fate sighed and ordered a drink to drown out the sorrow before, when the crane slipped out and showed him the message. He read it carefully before sighing once again. It was then that the drink arrived, he let the crane rest on his unoccupied hand, "Just let her know, that I miss her too and to be safe. Destiny will handle our next meeting." The Cardmaster told the crane before releasing it to carry his message back to Mai.
"Cheers." The depressed man said to no one in particular before taking a long drink.

After Gangplank had left Scrod was at the bar still a bit recovering from the spiked booze. After he had collected his winnings, he prepared to leave the bar to get ready for whatever Gangplank had asked him to join his crew for.
On his way out he gave Pete some gold to get everyone still in the bar a round on him, and with that he left.

August 3rd, 23 CLE
The doors to Plankwalkin' Pete's swung open as a mustachioed man walked into the tavern. A big grin on his face, a twinkle in his eye with his frilly dress shirt unbuttoned to expose the rug that he called chest hair to the world, Jurante made his way towards the bartender. His rapier was sheathed on his left side while a gauche was sheathed on his right. A pair of pistols clacked against the side of his thigh with every step he took.
Pushing past the crowd, the pirate motioned for two rounds of rum, slapped some valors onto the counter, and then started to happily drink the mugs.
