Time: 20:00 Location: Mirrorball waters
A large metal ship was sailing towards the island. Within there were sounds of clashing metal. The sound continually filled the air with each passing wave. Something was within the ship, but what? Time:20:01 Location: S.H.I.P. Mess Hall
Sonny was dancing atop of the table smacking everything he could with his spoons to a beat. He seemed to be drumming, attempting to entertain his fellow pupils. Being on this ship had been quite dull. Nothing but chores for a few days, but they were supposedly going to get their first mission tonight. A small hole opened up in the ceiling as a long mechanical arm reached down and snatched the spoons from his hands, then pushed him into a chair.
“Stop with the racket would ya? Thank you One. As you are all aware, we are nearing Mirrorba-“
“I heard there were monstrous pirates blowing up everything and taking away all the happy! Will we get to go beat them up?” Sonny stood up in his chair as he interrupted the mechanical voice which was filling the room.
“No, you are not sufficiently prepared for that. In fact, they left the night of the destruction, fortunately no main characters were injured. What you will be doing here, though, is tracking down a new threat. This pirate currently has no known bounty, but what we do know is that he has been stealing anything vanilla in the city. He is but a minor nuisance at the moment so he should prove to be good practice for you. We will be docking in a few minutes, please prepare for whatever awaits you.”
With that the voice faded away and Sonny looked at the other two sitting with him before he jumped up and yelled at the top of his lungs, “IT’S ADVENTURE TIME!”

Rebecca sighed with relief when those robot arm things took away sonny's spoons, she was starting to get a headache from all of that but then she heard sonny mention that they would be dealing with monstrous pirates. "Finally! I didn't come to this division to do chores all the time.." she grabbed her rifle, ready to deal with anything those pirates could throw at her then she heard that robot voice thing correct sonny. "Not prepared?! Only one small time pirate!?" Rebecca shouted at the voice and started to poke the ceiling with the butt of her rifle. "we can totally handle more than that!" she gave up on poking and sat down and grumbled about the situation while waiting to hit shore.

Frowning at Sonny's behaviour, Marina continued sharpening her personal katana, focusing on the blade's mirror-like surface while an angry red-haired girl glared back. When the voice removed Sonny's cutlery and debriefed them it didn't improve her mood much. "I should've just stayed at that base if I'd known I'd be cleaning up after these two and wackjob rookies. Just hurry and get us to shore." Sword sheathed, she folded her arms and waited for their robotic transport to stop, hoping one serious pirate hadn't chose to flee from the scene just yet.

Villain relaxed on one of the smaller, private docks on Mirrorball island, enjoying a day well spent. His pet parrot perched on his hat a few feet away, while the pirate lay back on the wood and looked up at the stars. Well, star, it was only four in the afternoon. A moment later he blinked, trying to get the blindness out of his eyes before picking up his hat and walking back into town.
Four hours later, and his collection was almost done; Villain had been having severe cravings lately, and now almost everything vanilla on the island was in a sack that he had slung over his shoulder. It was a surprisingly small collection, but plenty good enough.

“Well then….are you lot ready for this mission? POSITIONS MAGOTS!” Enigma’s voice had suddenly changed into a much more authoritative one as the arms pushed Sonny back into his seat.
“I have been waiting so long for this….”
Suddenly the chairs flipped over as they each fell into a strange slide and were led into a dark cylinder. It was too narrow for them to all fit together, so they laid on their sides one atop of the other. Sonny was the first one as he saw an opening ahead of himself. He began to crawl towards it when he heard Enigma.
“FIRE!!!!”
A loud bang filled the room as Sonny was shot out, looking back he saw an interesting fact. It was a cannon. He then saw where he was flying towards, a large wall of course. Sonny felt his head and noticed he had a helmet on, when did that get there? Either way, he crashed into…..a window and fell onto a bed? He got lucky, real lucky……then a pot fell on his head, good thing he had a helmet.

Before she could argue back Marina was dropped into the narrow tunnel too, colliding hard against her two crewmates. In the dark space, she sniffed trying to lift her head above someones armpit. "Bleh..is that gunpowde-AHHHHH!" Soaring through the air, blinded by a helmet which had been rammed over her wild red hair Marina hit something hard and then something that felt like Sonny.

Rebecca was about to get up and start poking the ceiling again for calling them maggots but before she could she and the other started....falling? She almost dropped her rifle but she quickly grabbed it and hugged it for dear life, she had no idea what was going on, it had gotten dark, she shut her eyes and then a loud bang and they were soaring through the air, rebecca opened an eye to take a peek and saw a wall that she was flying towards. "oh no oh no!" Rebecca was eager for action but not so so eager about being fired from a cannon. She braced for impact with the wall but when she opened her eyes she was in a room, what had just happened... She noticed her allies in the same room. "um so now what?"

Sonny looked around and found himself covered in something red. He then looked at Marina and noticed that she too, was covered in said red liquidy thing. She was atop of some sort of cake shaped like a human, not just any human, but a marine.
”Y-y-you killed me!”
Sonny immediately began to run around, not noticing that they were in a bakery with a distinct lack of vanilla pastries, or that he was covered in cherry filling. He ran and ran, until he crashed into Rebecca, knocking her into some pastries. So far, the odds of succeeding in their mission was quite low.

Supressing the urge to beat the younger recruit senseless, Marina wiped some cherry filling from her face. "Believe me I wish I did..." She looked at the ruined bakery. She was never fond of pastries, they were too dry, and took too long to eat when she could instead be fighting. Cleaning her katanas' sheathes of red, she looked over her two comrades. "Clean-up making more mess; only we could manage that."

Villain, as it turned out, had been in the back of the bakery when the roof had been demolished, and he took no notice of the disruption at all as he walked out past the group and started dumping trays of pastries into a large bag. He glanced over at Sonny, took note of his uniform, and promptly ignored it.
"Aye, matey, could you pass me that tray of crullers behind you? Ah'm robbin' the place, an' I need to get a move on. Lotsa places to rob, y'know?"

Rebecca stood up and brushed herself off, she was ready to kick some pirate butt however she wasn't prepared for sonny running around while covered in icing or something. "Hey calm down your not dea-" she was cut off by sonny knocking her into pastries, chocolate cream filled ones most of basically exploded. "Hey! Watch where your going!" she noticed some of the cream that was on her hand and quickly licked it off, a bright smile quickly appeared on her face. "Tastes good" she said while grabbing some more on her finger tip and licking it off, she seemed to quickly forget about the current situation. Rebecca started to giggle a bit but stopped when someone entered the room and started asking to help rob the place. Rebecca started to think to herself. 'wasn't the pirate we were looking for...small time? Maybe...' Rebecca stood up, grabbed her rifle and pointed it at the person robbing the place. "Die pirate!" she pulled the trigger but instead of a bullet chocolate filling from the pastries squirted out. "Eh?" she paused a few seconds before grabbing the rifle by the barrel and holding it like a bat. "your going down!"

When the mysterious man of mystery came into the room, Sonny was in awe. There was only one thing this man could be……A MAGICAL BAKER FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION!!!!
Then Rebecca fired her rifle. Sonny jumped in front of it and took the chocolate blow and then became frightened. This baker could fill objects with creamy goodness with his mind! Of course then he remembered what he had asked for and smiled as he grabbed the yummy treats. He put them in the bag for the man and then saw how much more deliciousness was in there. It all made sense now.
”Easter Bunny, take me with you. I will help you make kids happy!”

Marina watched in horror as the chocolate splattered from the gun, to be blocked by that stupid, childish, annoying boy she had to call her "equal". "Sonnnnnnnnnny! What are you doing? You baka! He's a pirate! Screw this, Nitouryuu...Ta-Wha!!" Unsheathing her blades, she stepped to begin her launch into the slash. Only to slip in cherry filling. And plop into a sponge cake piled with frosting. A wedding cake. A big one. With bows and hearts and doves. All made of soft frosting. A lot of frosting.
Lurching out of the mountain of coloured sugar, Marina's eyebrow twitched. "I. Don't. Like. Cake!" She shook the frosting from her red hair, glowering as the pirate grabbed the bag full of disgusting sweetness...and Sonny. "Stop now before I cut you into layers cur!" She sighed as she noticed several white bows stuck down her hooded uniform jacket.

Rebecca ignored sonny being...sonny and charged towards the pastry pirate. "DIE PIRATE! DIE!!!" She swung her rifle like a bat, although she was a better shot than she was at melee so she just kept on swinging until she hit something. Or she would have had she not almost slipped on more pastry, Rebecca managed to catch herself by grabbing the counter. 'These damn but delicious snacks are making us look bad...' Rebecca thought to herself. "Get the pastry pirate out of the pastry place!" She started charging towards the pastry pirate in a attempt to tackle him, making sure to avoid anything on the ground this time....

Villain shoved Sonny fully into the bag and cinched it up, carefully sidestepping the charge of the other two and letting them smash into each other before walking out the back door. Admittedly, a lot of pastries had been destroyed, but he had no interest in anything other than the best. He was planning on taking them across to another island and selling them to buy a ship, although the fact that he had no way of storing them or even keeping them from crushing each other had never crossed his mind.
"Arr, I take it you want to join me in a life on the high seas, robbin' anyone we find? You'd make a good crewman, matey."
