Book 5! Reader X Baki Characters ~The Bottle Of Curse~

Tentacled threat

(They are planning to behead me!No..No!I have to do something..!,I have to escape!I have to get something to defend myself from them!,before it's too late! Something!,anything!),you thought to yourself panicking and looked around you frantically,but there was nothing you could use.

In the moment of crisis,you suddenly noticed something next to you,as if it had appeared at that exact moment next to you,inches away from your feet.It was shinning brightly,immediately catching your attention.

(A golden..,dagger?Where did this come from?)-"Aah!", your thoughts were cut off as the men's arguing got louder,and soon enough they were going to draw their attention back to you.

You got back up on your feet and stabled yourself on the shaky ship,picking up the dagger and unsheathed it from it's golden case.Immediatly when you stood up,the shorter looking man's eyes fell on you,and he somehow looked at you with terror in his eyes,as if you were some terrifying monster or something.

You were confused,and for a moment you thought that maybe something or someone else was behind you,and that would explain why he looked scared.You turned behind you,with the golden dagger still in your hand,but noone was there.

In the meanwhile,while you were busy looking behind you,the terrified man was shaking with fear and pointed to his comrade to look behind them,and his comrade eventually did so,causing him to freeze in disbelief.

They were now both looking at you,as your back was turned to them and then they noticed that your body had started to relax from being stiff,unlike your hand that was gripping into something,really tightly.

They looked at it with trembling eyes,a golden dagger shinning like the sun,the shiny blade looking threatening in your grasp.The men backed away cautiously, fearing that at any moment you would attack.

Last thing you remembered out of all that scenario,was that you slowly turned your head to look behind you,and met eyes with both of the horrified men.Afterwards,you remembered nothing.

Back to the present!:

You had fallen unconscious,too tired to stay awake.Once Retsu's and the others attention returned back to you,they panicked seeing that you had lost consciousness,but Guevaru reassured them that you were just sleeping.

Yujiro held your hand cautiously in his while everyone around you discussed amongst eachother on what their next move would be,when he noticed that you were holding something in your grasp.

He checked if anyone around him was looking,and when he reassured noone was,he opened your hand and revealed that what you were clutching in your grasp, was the ultimate source of power,in it's small,keychain form.

One hour later,you found yourself sleeping in the Captain's Quarters,covered under a blanket.The sun's bright light filled the room from the broken window,and you could see dust float around in the air.

You sat up on the bed and rubbed your eyes before stretching your arms.You had no idea how long you had been asleep,but you felt like you had a really good nap as now you had completely restocked your stamina.

You noticed that someone was sitting on the beds edge,and squinted your eyes to take a closer look.It was Guevaru,and he seemed to be doing something,but you couldn't quite tell with his back turned to you.You were about to tap his shoulder,when you heard him hiss in pain.
