I'm more than happy to take requests for other stories, beside some stories I'm already working on other than this one. Anyway, Happy reading! ;)
Chapter 1: Escaping the Armada
I was lying on the wooden bench in the Armada's prison ship – The Erebus – because I was merely smuggling weaponry to the resistance, but the Armada found out where the smuggling operation is centred in. I still remember it: I was in one of the large warehouses, shifting one of the weapon crates to the backroom, when I heard loud banging at the front door. I thought it was the buyer at first, but I then heard a second set of banging and I yelled "I heard you the first time, I'm not deaf!" I then went over to the peep hole at the garage door and I saw a large squadron of Armada troops just about 5 feet from the roller door, then I sighed and then said "Gimme a moment…" then I raised the roller door and the armada had drawn their branded muskets against me. Their Spymaster, known as Deacon, asked me to come quietly and without any resistance and I responded "Yeah… you guys got the upper hand here." I then passed my musket over but then quickly turned on the safety just in case I don't accidentally misfire on an innocent and then passed it to Deacon, who is astounded that I gave up almost instantly as most pirates would just resist with all their might, but I told him "Well, aren't you putting me in a cell or not?"
I then heard a cannonball coming from somewhere and I came back to reality, the prison ship is rocking quite violently due to it being under fire, which I correctly assume is a rescue. I then heard a male adult voice saying "It must be one of these prisoners, search over there monkey!" I then thought (Monkey? It might be a burly captain with a moniquistan privateer) before I saw that I am indeed correct and the Moniquistan named Mr. Gandry said "Is this the pirate we're looking for?" The burly pirate with white beard (Definitely dyed because he isn't an elder) named BoochBeard responded "Hard to say. You there pirate, you're standing on me blindside: are ye a boy or a girl?" I made a puzzled face and I said "I'm definitely sure I'm a guy." BoochBeard awkwardly stood there and apologised because his sight isn't what it made itself to be, but I told him it's okay since the ship is getting shot at right now. Mr. Gandry then said "I beg my pardon, young sir, but what is your name?" I then responded "My name is Dead-Eye Daniel." Mr. Gandry then took off his hat and made a proper bow and he told BoochBeard "I told you, Captain, he's the one!" BoochBeard then replied "Hmm… If you say who you are, prove it. My firstmate and I know you are an orphan; this is going to be hard for you to reply… but how did ye lose your parents?" He was right; it is a hard thing to recount, but all I remember the last time I saw my parents alive is where I saw their ship being tailed by an Armada scout ship at the Cool Ranch Skyway. I then responded "They were attacked by the Armada. I was assured they didn't go down easily and that their funerals were lovely."
BoochBeard, Mr. Gandry and I shared a moment of silence in honor of my parent's valiant last moments (we ignored the constant cannon fire), before Boochbeard continued "Anyway, where were you raised at after that mishap?" I thought back and recall being raised by an admiral Marleybonian Dog and taught how to shoot accurately with spark throwers (which I picked up quite fluently, in fact, until my recent imprisonment, I practice my shooting 3 hours a day), then I made a sudden smile and replied "Marleybone. My foster father is an admiral in the military and I managed to be quite accurate with spark throwers." Mr. Gandry is intrigued and said "How did you end up locked in the Armada Prison Ship anyway?" I then responded quite clearly "I was recently caught smuggling weaponry to the resistance, when the Armada showed up. I was clearly outnumbered, so I gave up without a fight." Boochbeard then rubbed his chin and said "Fair enough, so I'm to take it that you're a Musketeer?" I nodded and then Boochbeard asked what kind of flag I would be using; I told both him and Mr. Gandry that the flag icon is a red and white target and the background for the flag is a blue and white cross, which they nodded because they understand why I chose that option. They then unlocked my cell door, but it got jammed before it even made 2 inches of space and Mr. Gandry said "Well now what do we do?" The answer came seconds later: a cannonball blasted the back of my cell and I said "Well that's fortunate. I'll come around through there." I then ran out of my cell to see my musket on the floor, so I picked it up, when I heard a male, scrawny voice coming from a nearby cell shouting "You there, Help!"
It was a crane student trained in Mooshu named Wing Chun, who is most likely trained in Kung-Fu; he told me that the lever for his cell door is to my left, so I pulled the said lever and when it opened, Wing decided to tag along with me. Now with a new partner, me, Wing Chun, Boochbeard and Mr. Gandry exited the prison area and onto the main deck, only to find Deacon at the bow of the ship. Wing then said angrily "Our jailor! Clockwork fiend, you will pay!" Deacon then said "I think not, the prisoner is not allowed to escape…" I then cut in "…so I can assume you are sending in your elite battle angels?" Deacon stood there, assumably surprised, then said "Yes. For a Musketeer, you are quite deductive. It's a shame I must be rid of you." Then from above, 3 clockwork angels with spark throwers appeared in front of me, so I first attacked the middle angel and made a couple of trick shots to weaken her enough, then she lets loose a flurry of spark shots at me. I then prepared to defeat the centre angel, when Wing Chun joined the battle and attacked the battle angel to my left by making a mid-air sweep kick and a flurry of punches after I defeated the centre angel with my spark rifle. Not surprisingly, the remaining two angels attacked both me and Wing, so I shot an incendiary round at the angel on my right as Wing Chun finished off the weakened angel by making a downward kick followed by two kicks from below. Deacon then said "Hm. Quite impressive, young pirate. It's not often the Armada has underestimated rebels like you. I must bid you, adieu." Deacon then shot at the explosives near Boochbeard before fleeing, with Boochbeard almost taken down by the blast.
Boochbeard then said "Yargh..! That blast nearly did me in! Pirate! Let's get back to me ship and sail to safe harbor." I nodded and both me and Wing Chun helped Boochbeard onto his ship, then I took the wheel and began sailing where Boochbeard is telling me to go – Skull Island. However, halfway to Skull Island, another Armada ship attacked the ship, but I didn't had any time to do broadside combat, so I continued sailing towards Skull Island until we're in a safe distance from the Armada, so we made dock at Skull Island and Boochbeard directed me to Captain Avery – a friend of his – after me, Wing Chun and Mr. Gandry helped Boochbeard to the medic building. Then me and Wing Chun bid farewell to our rescuers and we entered Captain Avery's mansion to see it filled with rare and exotic treasures from around the spiral, when a visibly older man with a white parrot on his shoulder introduced himself as Avery. I explained to him that me and Wing Chun are currently on the run from the Armada, then Avery said "Well, I don't mean to disappoint you, but I run a pirate haven here, not a charity. If you want me to hide you here, you have to work for it."
