Hector thought about everything

Hector Barbossa thought about everything in an empty SEKAI. He thought that his life had turned over three hundred and sixty degrees. It was divided into two parts. Before and after. On black and white. Who was he? He was a pirate, a Baron of the Caspian Sea, the Captain of the Black Pearl (Sparrow does not count). And what's the matter with him now?       After he was resurrected by Tia Dalma, Barbossa immediately had a lot of problems.    First, the East India Campaign became enraged and began executing pirates. Because of this, the council was created, but!   Okay, he was resurrected by a sea witch. But the Kraken ate the Sparrow! And he and his team had to sail to the edge of the world to save his ass from certain fate. Norrington also clung like a tick. I'd rather go to Beckett! Why did you sail with them, you idiot?        Okay, the Sparrow was saved, and then? And then they started rocking the ship. Bottom line: he, Sparrow, Norrington, young Turner and Miss Swan got into the wrong place.    In that space (if you can call that place that) They met a girl. Or a not girl. Hector still did not understand the approximate age of the stranger (like sixteen, but looks too young), but he vividly remembered her name and appearance. Her name was Hatsune Miku and she looked a little strange: long turquoise ponytails, huge eyes (atypical for humans), a miniskirt with a shirt and a blue tie, long knee-high boots and elbow-length armbands. And the voice... it's too squeaky! Then all five of them were sent to different places.     Barbossa was not greeted too joyfully in an empty sekai. This place had no beginning or end. There were only iron columns and triangles coming out of the floor. The inhabitants of this world were also extraordinary: a blue-haired guy with a stony face all the time, the twins are too timid, the pink-haired and short-haired are too pretentious (have you seen their breasts?). Only one Miku was more normal, but unlike that first "merry girl", this version is calm and silent. Instead of a flashy outfit, there is a modest white knee-length dress with black straps and a red bow on the collar, long grayish tails, mismatched eyes, and one black sock on the right foot. Where the second one went, Barbossa never found out.       Also, four young Asian girls, whose names Hector never remembered, get into this world by some kind of magic. But despite this, they gave him new clothes. In principle, it's not that bad. Only for him it is atypical: a white shirt with a huge gray collar and a red bow on it; two black belts (one was put on the elbow for some reason, and the second over the shoulder), gray pants and dark blue boots. Also, one of the Asian women with pink hair combed it and made a small pigtail. Hector was grateful, of course, but he just didn't have to take the hat away!       Barbossa, thinking about this, looked around. What an empty and boring place this is. How has he not died of boredom yet? Sitting down on the floor and leaning against the protruding triangle, he looked up. - Fog… As usual.        Suddenly, the man heard someone's footsteps. Hector became alert. Although what should he be afraid of, if there are so few people here, and at least he has more or less found out everything. Barbossa didn't even pay attention to the right person, and just looked straight ahead. -Hector-sama?        The pirate looked up and saw Mika in front of him. Hector chuckled. - Good afternoon, dear Miku. Is something wrong?        The girl did not answer and sat down next to Barbossa. Hector snorted, and turning away, went back to his thoughts. Suddenly, Hatsune gently poked his cheek. - What are you doing?-Barbossa asked sternly. - Your skin is so old! - Miku said admiringly. -Thanks for the compliment- Barbossa said sarcastically. - It's like I've never seen grown-up people. - No, never. - Well, you'll grow up and then you'll see - Barbossa snapped. -I'll never grow up, Hector-sama… - What do you mean you won't?- The man asked dryly.        Miku didn't answer, as if she was thinking how to say it. Hector looked at the little girl again and wondered, "How is it not going to become an adult? Is she ill with something?" -Unfortunately,- the white-haired one began,- none of us Virtual Singers will ever know what it's like to "grow up." We are not human. We don't know what "being born" is, what "growing up" and "aging" are, and what "death" is. We were immediately given a certain age and character, and we will "live" with them until the end. Although when they work with vocaloids, that is, with us, and create wonderful songs, the authors can radically change us: from our name to our history. But still, for everyone, we will remain the way we were created right away. - So you'll always be a young girl? - Hector asked, interested. -I'll always be sixteen- Miku nodded. -That's good,- Barbossa grinned.- You will always look young and cheerful. You will never know the pain in your soul and in your body. And most importantly, you will not die. - That's what I've always been interested in finding out, - the girl lowered her gaze and closed her eyes.- We have never seen adults who have been through a lot of things. And I think they are unusual. After all, they have learned a lot. They were first children, then teenagers, and then adults. They can teach everyone to be smart. When you Hector-sama appeared in this sekai,- Miku smiled,- you became a real treasure for us. You are the person who can teach us something.       Hector was embarrassed. He had never been told that. Especially girls. - I also like your rough wrinkled skin! - Miku opened her eyes and smiled broadly.- So unusual!        Hatsune poked Hector's cheek again. The man sighed. "Well…  she has a love for my skin," - thought Barbossa. - Can you tell us about your world? Miku asked, without taking her eyes off Barbossa. - Well, what should I tell you about? I'm a pirate myself. World… Well, the world is with ordinary people, if only from the eighteenth century. My world doesn't have your virtuality and all that. -How interesting- Miku said.        Barbossa, realizing that the singer would not let go, decided to tell about everything he knew and remembered. The girl just listened to him and did not interrupt. It took a long time, and Miku finally got up and was going to go somewhere. Hector looked at her. - Hector-sama, I'll be there soon, - as if reading Barbossa's thoughts, the white-haired girl said.- You are very interesting to tell!        The girl left. Hector sat back down and looked at the world again. Strangely, he seemed to feel better now. Barbossa smiled. - That's a little minx, she could talk the old man!        Hector thought about everything in the empty SEKAI. But still, he realized that this place was not so dreary.
