[Slowly walked toward the blond-fur cat sitting in a small livingroom by a roaring fireplace.] Jiro: Rinji, my dear friend, it's been too long [Got up and the two catmen embraced, Jiro patted him on the back and then sat back down in his seat as he let go of him] Please, sit, lets talk! Jiro: Ah, spider, yes. [He took one sip of coffee, and spat it out] Wait, what?! Spider? Dreamworld? You mean this place isn't real?! Rinji: What's that [Sipping his coffee] Rinji: Hmph... yeah... I may have over done it a little.

[Slowly walked toward the blond-fur cat sitting in a small livingroom by a roaring fireplace.] Jiro: Rinji, my dear friend, it's been too long [Got up and the two catmen embraced, Jiro patted him on the back and then sat back down in his seat as he let go of him] Please, sit, lets talk! Rinji: Well, I don't have a whole lot of time right now, [He sat, and Jiro handed him a cup of coffee from the side table beside them. Which is strange because Rinji didn't see one there before.] You see, we're kind of inside of a spider... in a dream world. Jiro: Ah, spider, yes. [He took one sip of coffee, and spat it out] Wait, what?! Spider? Dreamworld? You mean this place isn't real?! Rinji: Well... kind of, it's a long story. Basically, I'm in the dream world, and I can only assume that you are dreaming. But listen to me, and listen carefully. Where is Nekoshima? Jiro: Where? Rinji, come on. You know as well as I do that it's not so simple as to point it out on a map. The Tribunal has worked for centuries to keep it away from the World Government's sight. I can't just give you an eternal pose, as much as I'd like to. It's also entirely too off the beaten path to find with a log pose. I'm sorry, Rinji. But there is good news. [He added, since Rinji really seemed to be getting down on such news.] Rinji: What's that [Sipping his coffee] Jiro: I am on an island close to the Redline, in the New World. [Rinji's ears perked up as he heard this] The island is called "Fringe." And if I read the newspaper right, you caused a couple of waves on Usted Island with that Commander Kola guy. Rinji: Hmph... yeah... I may have over done it a little. Jiro: A little? You do know using your claws in anger is a serious offense on Nekoshima. Rinji: Yes, [Grim look] I know. Jiro: But that's only the half of it, you cut the guy's face up to such an extent that he went absolutely crazy. Rinji: I KNOW!! [Snapping at Jiro] That bastard deserved every single swipe of it! Threatening me is one thing, threatening my crew is another! But when you threaten my family, I stop at absolutely nothing! That son of a bitch drew out my anger like poison from a wound, and I snapped! Jiro: You don't know what you did, Rin. With the intelligence I've been keeping on you, I found out that he not only went crazy and killed an entire crew of Marines, but also used a piece of glass to slice off all of the skin from his whole face. Jiro: Yeah, and he disappeared. Something tells me he's going to be gunning for you, Rin. You need to keep that violence in check before you do something you'll regret... again. I know you, you wouldn't do that unless you were seriously driven to, and were I in your situation, I may have done the same thing. Jiro: Oh, man, come here. [Got up from his chair and sat beside Rinji, putting his hand on the back of his head and hugging him. That was when Rinji really began to let go of it all. He cried, everything that has been happening to his crew, all of the things he's lost and gained along the way. It all washed out of him at the sight of his oldest and dearest friend] Rinji: It hasn't been easy to be away from my home. I'd give anything to find it and see Migoto... Kiria... all of them. [sniff] Everyone. Jiro: I know [patting Rinji's back] It's good to see you. Rinji: Oh, I can't put it into words. I've tried everything to find our homeland. Seeing you is the very next best thing, I promise [Wiped his tears on his furry arm] Jiro: Come and find me on Fringe, I can help you with anything you need. I have connections everywhere in the system. Rinji: I must be going now, so you might want to wake up. Do you still play the g-- Jiro: Like you need to ask, I wouldn't give this thing up for all the fish in All Blue. [He pushed up his green sunglasses and grinned] Rinji: Of course, but something has definitely changed about me... [Menacing grin] Jiro: What do you m--- what?! Rinji's fur turned entirely purple and white again, and he began to fill the entire room with purple and white tiger stripes. Jiro: What the hell did you do, Rin? Rinji: I ate the Neko Neko devil fruit, Model: Cheshire Cat. I'm not entirely sure what it does as a whole, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. Jiro: You ate a devil fruit?! Rinji: A Mythic Zoan type, yes. Jiro: .... I'm speechless... and jealous at the same time. You lucky bastard. Rinji: Mewhahahahaha! See you on the other side! Chio: You have got to be kidding me... Spider Rinji: Mewhahahahaha! I think I can see my house from---
