vi veri veniversum vivus vici
As he lay on the metal deck with shouting voices and the giant trash can man looked on he chuckled to himself and played with a bell on his hat. As men poured in shouting at him and wondering what to do he saw the trash can man doing what he could only assume was stare at him. He chuckled "Oh pretty boy do tell, is that old yeller looking whelp going to pull through or not?" he chuckled as the heap of metal tensed at his words. "Don't worry" he said faking tears "Give it to me straight doc I can take it" With that he was hoisted from the ground and carried off to a large solid metal storage room with thick steel walls and placed in a chair.
Soon chains were brought in and he was chained to the chair completely. The men left him for some time to regain order on the ship and search for possible accomplices. Shouting was heard from outside the doors for quite some time and then hushed whispers. The large door swung open to reveal a rather unimpressionable man in the later years of his life. Though when he opened the door he found the killer hanging in what appeared to be a hammock made with the very chains he had been tied down in.
The man who could only be the Captain stopped for a second and rocked back towards the door but then strode to the middle of the room. "I am sure asking you why you are here, who sent you, and what the hell kind of man you even are would be useless, correct?" Shaco spun in his chains prepared to entice this gentleman and now found himself hanging by his feet upside down from the chains so that his face was only inches from the mans own.
The inhumanly large grin of the assassins face sat naught but inches from the captains mouth as he began to talk. His high pitched voice rather than being annoying or embarrassing actually came across terrifyingly sinister. "I was here to play tag with the blonde brat sirrrr that is all so if i could just be on my way you can all go back to trying to find treasure island, or booty, or whatever it is you do" The captain felt is anger swelling at this man, if it even was one, his face alone was too distorted to be human wasn't it? He checked his temper as he replied "Why would you kill Aren? What could he have possibly done to deserve this?" The being before him cackled maniacally as he grinned revealing his teeth that somehow were more than an inch long. "Well of course he did something! I can assure you I have no idea what but I had to give him a pat on the back for whatever it was." He paused grinning. "Figuratively speaking that is" he cooed. "What you must understand my water friend is that I just do what the man says and have a blast doing it, nothing more than that"
The captain thought this might be his key to some real information, although as this man talked he realized that his mental state might make real information impossible. "What man tells you what to do?" he asked calmly and listened intently. Shaco reeled back from the mans face back up into his chains and sat with his legs dangling over the edge of his makeshift nest. He looked utterly taken aback at what the captain had just said.He let out a groan "Well the man with the hat of course, who did you think I was talking about" he leaned back in his chains. "The man tells me go on the seacar, find the blonde brat, and give him a tickle. So I find the seacar, I play hide and seek for awhile and watch the fish play in the water for a few days or whatever, feed the brat his apple and then I'm here talking to you" he looked back at the captain as he finished his sentence.
Just as the captain opened his mouth to reply a thunderous tremor moved through the ship. The captain grinned a little. "You have really upset Nautilus you know." Shaco looked confused for a moment until he made the connection and a grin flashed across his face. "Oh you mean the garbage can man, Yes I'm not sure if he is more upset that I bopped his friend or that he broke my friend when he hugged him" he swung himself down hanging by his hands now. "If he is sad about my friend breaking tell him not to worry I can always make more"
The captain opened his mouth to say something and quickly closing it realizing that his efforts were in vain, even if this killer wanted to tell him he wasn't sure the thing even knew how to do so in a way anyone but himself would understand. He shook his head and turned and left the room. Sealing the psychotic thing in behind him. Yet as the last few inches of the door swung shut he could hear the faintest spine tingling chuckles coming from inside the hold.
