[Two months ago, during that bizarre trip down to Solare Island, Zack found himself in a bit of a bind. Up against some sort of monster in the shape of a weird sun with a face. But that was hardly the strangest part.

The strangest part was during his fight to take down the creature, a crewmate that happened to be fighting alongside him, turned against him in a flash.

He remembers seeing glowing eyes. And a figure that was hardly anything human.]

Vin! Vincent...! You around?

[He's on the dock of the Seventh Heaven now, trying to see if he can track the man down. But that's the hard part... This guy is harder to track down than a cat with a can of tuna.]

[As it happens, he is. He hadn't been aboard when the ship had last been out to sea, but now that its docked, he's taken the opportunity retrieve some of his things (which don't number many).

He isn't leaving, but until this isn't a problem, he's dangerous. He's aware of this.

He might be seen in the shadows, though, heading toward the gangplank. He doesn't go to respond at first, but Zack is clearly insistent.

Is he around?]

No.

[No????]

Hey! ... Hey!

[Luckily, Zack is the annoyingly insistent kind. So, when he gets barely a hint of Vincent sulking in the ship's shadows, he jumps on it.]

Hold on! I've been looking everywhere for you, man!

[chaosvessel]

[There's a part of him which knows he owes Zack an explanation, but the fact that he's still breathing tells him at least that Chaos didn't end the man. That's fortunate.

He doesn't know where to start, though, and that's part of the problem.]

What is it?
