((Open to anyone and anything who wants to jump in))
The doors to the small tavern creaked open and Chika casually and quietly strode in with her black and white dress. She sat down at the bar and as the bartender greeted her, she gave him a playful grin.
"Rum, sir - dark, please," she said quietly. The barkeep raised an eyebrow and smirked.
"You're a pirate? Rum's a little strong for a lady--"
"Captain Herrlock wants a rum, sir," Chika interrupted and crossed her arms on the table, waiting for her drink to arrive. The man merely shrugged, shook his head, and then obediently got the lady her drink. The glass was placed in front of Chika, who took it and downed it in an instant without so much as a sputter or dribble of any of the foul-smelling liquid, and she set the glass back down on the counter before getting to her feet.
She was just about to leave when someone let out a wolf whistle. She turned to face the person it came from, the whole time saying, "You better hope I know who you are..."

"You should." Nero walked in, his gave the tavern a look of disgust. "I am the second Captian to lord Zelos, and you are one as well...correct?"

Chika let out a small sigh of relief. "Oh, it's only you. I was almost afraid I'd have to get my dress dirty 'taking out the trash'," she answered calmly and looked Nero over.
Creepy. That was the only thing she could think about his appearance, really.
"Captain...Whitemarrow? I know I've heard of the name but we've rarely worked together from what I remember," Chika said and then straightened herself out to be a bit more presentable, "and yes, I happen to be the other captain to Lord Zelos. Captain Chika Herrlock, sir."

"Oh yes... we haven't worked together, Lord Zelos's orders don't come in as much as they used to." Nero looked away first before looking back at her. "and I am Captian Nero Whitemarrow. At ease Captian Herrlock."

"That they don't, which more or less allows me for more time to...find some business of my own to take care of," she gave another sweeping glance around the tavern and shuddered, "it's a pleasure to meet you finally, Captain Whitemarrow. Dare I ask how you've been keeping yourself busy without the orders from our king?"
This was her colleague, and as such Chika would want to find out more about him. Sometimes, it was good to know about the people you were to be working with.

"Grim Dagger," he said simply, "Xisa's Captian and I were testing some of the heroes."

Chika smiled. "Is that so? I hear they are quite strong and are to not be underestimated. Would you agree with that?"
At the moment, Nero appeared to be...well, fine. She hadn't seen him with any injuries, so she would have hoped that the heroes he was testing with Captain Dagger were long done in.

"For now...no," Nero said, "But they seem to have hidden strengths that when unleash pose a serious threat. I have encounted a Vizard."

"A Vizard, you say? How fascinating," Chika's lip curled with a sly smile, "and they have not been disposed of, is that it? Do you have any information on this Vizard? How about the other heroes? I have yet to encounter one myself."

"I have only encountered two, Andy Jammer and Mark Fri. I easily dispatched Fri, although I feel like he has more power than he let on. Grim almost defeated Jammer until his Vizard took over."

"Andy Jammer and Mark Fri," Chika repeated, she'd have to remember those names, "and one of them you say is a Vizard? Since you mention a one Mark Fri not performing to his full potential in battle, would I be correct to guess that Jammer is the Vizard?"
Chika was interested, these were people who she thought she'd like to meet. Not to mention that there were even more heroes out in the world that they had yet to encounter and defeat before they grew stronger.
"It sounds to me that these heroes need to be disposed of as quickly as possible - especially the one who did battle with Captain Dagger. I'll probably be taking a leave to venture some of the other kingdoms and try to find out whatever I can about the other heroes as I've heard there are several more yet. I hear there's a new dumb king in Santo-Luce - I'll probably head there first to see if any of these heroes have also heard the news and are moving in for an easy kill on the new king Frexton."
She grinned then, "What say you to that, Captain Whitemarrow? Unless you have any other ideas?"
