(Various shenanigans)

The blue girl pauses. "...what? Of course not - I reformed in a pile of gold and treasures, so I figured you had to have taken me into...wherever this is."

"I've never seen you before in my life. And what do you mean, ''reform?" ''Syrup asks.

The girl sighs. "Alright, here - you have to recognize this."

She turns around, revealing that she has a blue, teardrop-shaped gemstone embedded in her back. "Ringing any bells?"

"Not for me...but it might for my crew. If you let me go..." Syrup trails off, letting her captor connect the dots.

After a moment, the blue girl sighs. "Fine."

She waves her hand, and the water around Syrup disperses, which only leaves her soaking wet.

"Make it quick." The girl orders.

"It will be; don't worry about that..." Syrup wrings out her hair, and then opens the door, peeking her head out of her quarters and tlking to her crew. "Say, who's the one who dropped off this beautiful blue gem in my treasure pile?"

Almost immediately, the pelican who retrieved said gem flies down, eagerly awaiting Syrup's approval.

"So, it was you, then!" Syrup looks down with a grin. "Where did you find it?"

The crew member gestures to the water.

"The water...I see. Thank you for your gift, fellow picaroon." Syrup winks, closes the door, and turns to the blue girl with a deadpan stare. "Well? Is that good enough for you?"

"I...was in the water?" The blue girl shakes her head. "That doesn't make any sense...I may not be as aware of my environment while reforming, but I'd know if I got thrown into the ocean. So how'd I..."

"Good question. I have no idea. In any case, feel free to leave me and the Black Sugar Gang behind when we stop here. I have no intention of becoming a kidnapper." Syrup remarks, before sighing. "First the fish swim away in a panic, and now this..."

"What was that?" The girl looks at the captain.

"Something is going down in Diamond City, and I intend to figure out what it is." Syrup explains. "Nothing you should be concerned about."

The blue girl is silent for a moment, before looking out the door.

"What are you-" And then the girl pulls herself back in, looking at Syrup.

"It's the city up ahead, right?" She asks.

"...yes..." Syrup isn't quite sure where she's going with this.

The blue girl then closes her eyes, holding out her hand and curling her fingers. Her hair suddenly seems to flow as if a breeze is going through.

Captain Syrup stumbles a bit as the boat rocks for some reason, and she goes out to the deck. "What's going on!?"

"C-captain!" One of the spear-weilding pirates runs up to Syrup. "We can't row anymore! The ship is...the ship is..."

Syrup runs to the side and looks over. Her eyes widen. The ship is being lifted up by the water, with it completely surrounding the bottom half of the ship.

Syrup runs back into the quarters. "What are you doing?"

"You said you wanted to go to the city up ahead, right?" The blue girl points out. "I'm just speeding up the process."

She pulls her arm back, and thrusts it forward.

The ship zips through the air like a rocket.

'"If ye break me ship, ye will feel worse than ye ever have in your landlubber life, you...you...blue STRUMPET!" 'Syrup yells, slipping into language more befitting of a pirate.

"Yeah, good luck with that. And it's Lapis, by the way. Lapis Lazuli." Lapis remarks, looking at Syrup.
