Captain Scarblade sat in his cabin contemplating his next move. He hadn't had too bad of luck since the Marqua campaign but it was still bugging him. How could that nobody usul have beaten a great pirate captain like him? Not to mention he had hit a hurricane and his ship was badly damaged and he wasn't sure how long it would stay afloat without repairs. Just then he got the news he'd been waiting two days for. Outside he heard his lookout yell "Land Ho!" Scarblade came out of his cabin and looked up at the moehog in the crows nest
"Which island, Mogo?" He asked the moehog.
"Scurvy Island Cap'n" Mogo replied back.
"All hands on deck!" Scarblade yelled and from bellow deck came his crew of a hundred good strong pets. "Prepare to land"
"Where we landing cap'n" Scarblade's first mate Benny asked
"Scurvy Island" He told the Bruce. When they came a little closer to the island Scarblade yelled "Lower the anchor, raise the sails!" and The Revenge came to a halt in Scurvy Island Harbor. As Scarblade's crew disembarked onto the island Scarblade went to find someone to make general repairs on his ship. He found the tuskaninny in question in the local tavern and approached him.
"Turk" Scarblade snarled startling the poor tuskanny out of its wits for a moment.
"Yes Mr. Scarblade" Turk said warily, you could never tell what mood Scarblade was in and if you caught him in a bad mood and said the wrong thing you might be getting a one way ticket to Davy Jone's locker.
"I need you and your pets to do general repairs on me ship again. You know the deal" Scarblade replied.
"Aye, I do" Turk said, "I repair your ship for five dubloons an hour and you don't kill me."
"Exactly" Scarblade replied, "Aren't we a smart tuskaninny. Now get to work." Turk hurried out of the tavern to get his workpets and start work on the ship. Scarblade meanwhile ordered a bottle of rum and sat down to drink.
When he finished his drink he headed to the harbor to supervise the work. The tusk ninny's pets were on it, fixing the broken boards and ripped sails.
"Anything happen" He asked Benny.
"Not much" Benny replied, "We did see our old ship sail by though."
"Me old ship?" Scarblade asked puzzled.
"The Black Pawkeet" Benny replied.
"Oh" Scarblade replied. Truth be known he didn't really consider The Black Pawkeet his ship. It had just been a ship he'd used to carry weapons to take Marqua but the fact that the captain of the ship had sided with the Marquans and helped them win pissed him off to no end. He wanted revenge on that usul. "Benny" He said, smiling wickedly "Tell the crew to find a place to stay. We're going to be here awhile."
