Jiro: You wouldn't say that if the train were here. Come on. Rinji: But Jiro! The clock! It's... [Looked up at the clocktower to see that the time was three o'clock.] Time is running out, it's almost our bedtime yesterday. Jiro: What happened to the people in the clock? [All of the shadows around them were passing even faster around them.] We were a victim of time, it's almost then for us to go. Rinji: Jiro, wait! The minute before! Jiro: GAH! [Pushed off of the clocktower's wall and flew back. His body stuck in a slow motion state away from the tower.] Man: As the hour and the tides come into reality, it only inevitably leads you to me. Come to me, for the sickness is still waiting to tangle into the core. You were never warned, but you feel it. You feel the illness, it boils and swirls inside you like a pit in the void. [He leaned down and his face was just as tall as Rinji as he gazed at him through the bandages, his eyes hidden but his stare was just as horrid.] As you near, the pit runneth over. Rinji: NO! GET AWAY FROM ME! WHO ARE YOU!?!?! Man: As if you needed to know [His mouth opened, and green, horrific gas began to bellow out, engulfing Rinji in a cloud of sickness.] Jiro: RINJIIIIII!!!!! Rinji: GAH! [Jumped and sat up in bed, the fur on his chest was a mess, sticking up and pointing the wrong way all over.] Nikk: Hey. Rinji: [Yawned again.] 'Ey. Nikk: Nightmare? Rinji: Yeah [Opened the fridge and got some milk.] Nikk: Bad one? Rinji: There such a thing as a good one? Nikk: Of course, I once dreamed a tree came alive and threw all of its leaves at me. Rinji: [Drank some milk and then thought for a second.] You know, this is the most small talk I think I've heard you say. Nikk: Yeah, I'm bored. Alice is asleep so I just come in here because I know she'll be here soon. It's like... [took out her pocket watch] two in the morning. Rinji: Yeah, who's on watch? Nikk: It's Ellis's shift. Rinji: Fun, how are you liking her? Nikk: She's cool. I'm not a fan of cigarette smoke but I don't care. I'm use to it. Chio's better, and it's only been two weeks, so she's obviously a pretty good doctor. Rinji: Yeah, we'll need her too. I just got the newspaper yesterday, apparently our infamy went up a little bit. Nikk: I know, I went through your desk. Rinji: Eh?! [Looked shocked.] Nikk: My bounty went up to 100,000,000, more than likely because the Marines saw me with you, and considered me guilty by association. You, on the other hand are 450,000,000 now, quite the upgrade, and impressive. Rinji: Yes, if I know the New World, it's going to be littered with Bounty Hunters. A price like that is nothing to scoff at, that's for sure. Not to mention the rest of the crew's bounties. Everyone's went up. I did the math, all together it's-- Nikk: 1,390,000,000.... Rinji: ....yeah. Nikk: Hm, well, I'll go check our course real fast [Got down from the kitchen counter, straightening her black trench coat. She petted Rinji's head a little as she walked by.] If I'm right, the next island should be near by. Ellis: Ummm.. this started three seconds ago. Rinji: Aww.. man [Pulled out his Captain's whistle, and blew into it, hard.] ALL HANDS ON DECK!!!
