Written - Looking for our crewmate

Hey guys, uh, what's up?

So listen, one of our crewmates has gone missing. Akira was with us on the island and Winry and I left to pick up some supplies but now we can't find him. Has anyone heard from or seen him?

I'd appreciate it if you help me with this.

Thanks.

I saw him when I arrived. I haven't seen him since.

I swear he was just here. Thanks I guess. I don't know where he could have gone.

Was he involved in the altercation [with my brother] at the port?

No, we're about two weeks out from the port. I saw it's been burned. At least, hopefully, we can get some supplies here.

It was on the island that I last saw him, if we're speaking of the same individual.

Unless he got there from here somehow. There are ways to do that. He's a werewolf, if that helps you. If not, don't worry about it too much.

What was the fire like, if you saw it?

[Given the way he'd acted, it didn't seem like it would be anyone else.]

Yes, that sounds like the man I met.

As for the fire... it spread quickly. Some of the flames were black.

[Amaterasu, that only he or his brother could extinguish before it burnt everything around it.]

Son of a bitch!

[There's a bit of a wait before he adds more.]

Thanks. He must have left the island through our Nav.

I can't give you any more of an idea of where he might be now, unfortunately.

I appreciate the help anyhow. Have we met before? Or spoken, I guess.

We have not.

Let me introduced myself then. I'm Edward Elric, captain of The Panthress.

Itachi Uchiha. [Though he says it the other way around. Translators, yes?]

I am currently aboard the Sinewave.

The Sinewave? I don't know it. I don't think I've met anyone on it. How do you like it? Even though this situation is not the greatest, sailing around is okay. Feels kind of adventurous.

It serves its purpose for now.

[It's a boat. That was good enough.]

I guess. It's difficult to be away from home, but I know everyone is looking for a way back.

One would think that the existence of a way here would mean that there's also a way home, yes.

Logically speaking, but at the end of last month I became a vampire temporarily. Completely illogical.

Temporarily? So it was merely an odd affliction that made you hunger for blood?

No, I was completely a vampire for about a week. The sun didn't rise, it was all very strange.

The sun didn't rise? That speaks of an illusion.

It certainly didn't feel like an an illusion. Winry was a werewolf herself, and the sky was strange and red. It felt like a week or so.

Most good illusions don't.

It sounds like a tsukuyomi. You can be held days in an illusion like that while no time passes in the real world.

I'm certain the time passed here though. It was strange all around. Akira didn't change, he stayed the same. There were these ghosts that attacked us and we had to leave our ship to get away from them.

It's merely an idea. I'm still new to this place, and wouldn't put anything past it after seeing who and what it can drag in.
