Emilia: "You need my help?"
Henry: "Yeah, we need your help"
He asks with a serious face.
Emilia stands up from her lounger, putting her sunglasses on to then walk to the stairs, leading down to the boat interior, ignoring Henry while doing.
Jack then walks to Henry, patting him on his shoulder from behind. Seeing Henry shocked by the hard rejection of his sister kind of makes him smile a little, knowing his ideas would have been better.
Jack: "You did great boss; you know someone else who could help us?"
He says mockingly.
He calls him boss as a sign of mockery and revenge for loosing the vote to him.
Henry: "I mean, I think so"
He responds to jack. Jack disappeares in his thoughts, thinking if Henry was joking about
knowing more people or if he really ment it, getting goosebumps of thinking that they might be worse than his very own sister. Leaving him with an expression of shock and fear.
Henry chases down Emillia to the boat interior, trying to maybe make her overthink her decision
Henry: "Wait Emillia, please we need your help",
Henry looks around the boat-storage room. He sees a lot of boxes filled with fish, left and right.
Henry: "Whoa Emilia, I didn't think you would be interested in the fish business.
Emilia: "Leave me alone Henry"
She calls from the distance,
Emilia: "What ever it is you need help in, it will only bring me more trouble than I already have."
A little note of sadness is in her voice while rejecting Henry, that little sadness is enough
for Henry to not leave it like that.
Henry: "Then let me help you first big sis, what is it, tell me"
He calls into the distance, hoping for an answer.
Emilia comes out from a door at the other side of boat-storage room, fully dressed in a dark blue shirt and some dark blue jeans.
Emilia: "Henry, if you could help me, I would have asked you"
She says after walking to him and before she passes him to walk up the stairs. Henry turns to Emilia.
Emilia: "But I didn't, so leave me alone"
She speaks, not turning around and showing him her back.
Henry: "B-but big sis"
Emilia: "Im sorry Henry, I can't help you".
Emilia walks up the stairs, where she sees Jack leaning at the mast and Lenny, sitting
on the lounger.
Emilia: "And who are you two?"
She says in a serious tone.
Jack: "You should at least hear him out you know?"
Jack says in his cool-boy tone, trying to impress her a little but also attempting to
at least let Henry talk to her.
Emillia is in disbelief,
Emilia: "Im sorry but in whatever mess he brought you in, it ain't my problem"
She walks down off the boat on the plank, before heading into the town.
Henry comes up the stairs, sad from the harsh words and rejection by his own sister.
Jack: "She always like that?"
He asks Henry,
Henry: "I don't know, maybe I just didn't notice until now"
He answers in a sad tone.
…
Emilia: "What was he thinking, coming out of nowhere and doing like it is important, as if i don't have my own things to solve"
She says in her head, walking down the streets of the small port city with a plastic bag in her right hand.
???: "Emilia, wait!"
A man calls from behind, it is Daniel in his sailor uniform.
Emilia turns around and faces Daniel.
Emilia: "What do you want Daniel, I am busy"
Daniel: "I-I guessed that we have to go to the same place so I thought it would be a good idea that we walk together"
Emilia: "Whatever"
She says, rolling her eyes and turning around again.
Daniel quickly catches up to her and then slows down, so he has the same walking tempo as Emilia.
Daniel: "Sooo, what did your brother want from you"
He asks, trying to break the silence.
Emilia: "Nothing Daniel, matter of fact, mind your own business"
She responses, not even giving him a glance while talking.
Daniel: "I-I am sorry, I just wanted to-"
Emilia interrupts Daniel
Emilia: "Whoops, sorry Danny but we are here".
They stop in-front of a wooden door of a big storage hall.
The big main door is closed, so Emilia knocks with her left on the wooden door.
Daniel looks sad for being interrupted without warning, but he quickly forgets it after noticing
that he got called with a nickname by Emilia, leading to his face turning red.
Emilia: "Broker, im here, open the damn door, I brought what you wanted."
She calls, waiting and quickly gets un patient, knocking harder this time.
Emilia: "Broker, open the fucking door"
She shouts, scaring Daniel, leading to him taking a step back.
Daniel: "Emilia, w-w-we should be m-more p-patient y-you know?"
Emilia ignores Daniels warning, leading to her kicking the door aggressively, ultimately opening it.
Emilia: "Broker"
She says to the man, sitting on top of wooden boxes in the middle of the hall, being surrounded by a handful of people.
Broker, a dark-skinned, long dread-headed guy, wearing a thick winter jacket, with animal
fur attached at his hood, just smiles at Emilia.
Broker's left eye is orange with three, black horizontal lines engraved in it.
Broker: "Yo guys, lemme introduce ya to a badd chick"
He says with his deep voice
Emilia: "Shut up broker, I have what you want"
She responds, throwing the plastic-bag in her right hand in-front of him.
The hall is big and dark, from the holes on the roof sunlight penetrates in, basically highlighting the bag.
Broker: "That's what im talking about"
He says, nodding one of the guys around him, another dark-skinned muscleman, basically giving him the order to bring him the bag.
Broker looks inside the plastic bag. Inside are small liquid bottles with a colorless liquid.
Emilia: "So we are we're even, right?"
She asks Broker with a serious face.
Broker: " Fisher's liquid. It can be won from a special type of fish, swimming deep in the Lumarian Ocean. Fishing them is basically illegal now since they are threatened with extinction because of organizations mass-farmed them to gain the liquid and its narcotic effects, making it a drug. Now the market price for one of those bottles skyrocketed making it difficult to even buy one."
Emilia: "What you want Broker; I brought you what you want"
Broker: "Yeah you are right."
He says, before violently throwing them on the grounds.
Daniel jumps back frightened, while Emilia watches on the ground with sadness, making an expression if she had been caught doing something bad.
Broker stands up from his boxes walking closely to Emilia, confronting her face to
face,
Broker: "Did you forget what my left eye can do? It shows me the information of something
when I hold it in my left hand."
Emilia: "I didn't know that it's not real, the bos-"
Broker interrupts her,
Broker: "The Boss?"
He laughs psychopathic, echoing through the hall, making Daniel and her uncomfortable.
Emillia: "What you don't believe me? Ask him"
She says while Broker laughs get louder.
Broker: "YEAH MAYBE I SHOULD!"
He says while still laughing, before pointing into a dark area, revealing a person walking out of it.
A white, middle-aged man with little hair on his head.
Daniel: "B-boss"
