[REISHA DAWSON]

[atrb=valign,top][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,300,true][atrb=style,padding: 10px; border-radius: 0px;] It was dark outside, and quite possibly a little offsetting for anyone who was used to this place. Today marked the fourth year since she had joined the marines. And yet still she was a petty officer. Of course, it was a high enough rank but it was still the lowest of the officers. What could she do with such a meager title? Her voice held no real authority, and with how underpopulated South Blue seemed to be as of late, she would get nowhere by staying here. Reisha had put in a request with her commanding officer to move to a different marine base out in the East Blue. They were still building new headquarters there, and she knew it was the opportune place to be. Reisha was ambitious. And she was good at almost everything she did. So it was a smart move to try and squeeze into a new base before power started being corrupted without her being there to witness its formation. Because there was no way to stop this process, but if you were there from the beginning, you knew how to exploit it. Reisha Dawson followed the law, and she would never break it unless she deemed it unjust. So she had cunning ways of abusing the already-abused system. And she would tell no one. It was her secret, as everything else in life was. A certain infamy of her enigmatic nature clung to her name desperately, and it wasn't something she could or even wanted to shake. Boarding the marine vessel, the purple-haired girl got acquainted with the ship and settled into her bunker for the night. She changed into her pajamas and rolled into her temporary bed. It would only be a few days until she arrived at East Blue, and until then she could only wait as this was not her division and therefore her duties didn't exist here. Closing her eyes, the young woman soon began falling to sleep as the sound of the crashing waves outside the ship lulled her into a light slumber.

[atrb=valign,top][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,300,true][atrb=style,padding: 10px; border-radius: 0px;] Finally, the day of arrival was here. At sunrise, Reisha arose from her bed. Disrobing, she proceeded to then take a shower and cleanse her body of all impurities. After she was done, she wrapped a towel around herself and went into her suitcase to pull out her usual outfit. It was a purple dress that extended to her knees and exposed her arms and cleavage. However, she slipped on a white lab coat-like jacket and buttoned the button over her chest. Brushing her hair out, she left it down and extending to her waist as per the usual. She picked up her reading glasses and slipped them in her breast pocket before zipping her suitcase up and checking her room to make sure everything was in order. Once that was done, she brought her suitcase out of the barracks and up to the surface of the ship. Reisha rested it against the railing and then went back down to the kitchen to grab a plate of eggs and sausage, as well as some orange juice. Once she finished, she headed back up to meet with the captain of the vessel and make sure her travel arrangements were still in order. Everything seemed good to go, and all she had left to do was wait for the ship to dock in East Blue. They were headed for Goa Kingdom, where she would find her new marine base. Sighing out, she rested her hands on the railing of the ship and stared out at the wide expanse of water. Before too much longer, the purple-haired woman was shaken from her reverie as one of the crew mates announced they were at the pier. The ship was anchored and the boarding zone opened. She gathered her suitcase and walked off the ship, taking in the extravagance of Goa Kingdom. It truly was something else. But she made no smile or sign of pleasure, for this was business. And with that, she headed toward her next destination.
