10… Sanctuary Isn't Such a Haven

The pirates and I landed in what was once Sanctuary, but now was Burning to Death of Smouldering Ashtown. I coughed, as did many around me, and I saw two pairs of wings, on yellow and green, the other bright purple. "Maya and Lilith are over there I'll go meet them. Scarlett, your crew will have a greater advantage split up over multiple flanks." I spilt the pirates and positioned them. "We are go! Move!" Scarlett followed me, and we joined the other Sirens.

"What is she doing here? Thought she was gone for good. Lil, should we kill her?" I put my body between them and Scarlett. "No, don't do that. You'll regret it once you find out what I know." They returned their focus to the loaders and engineers, and Scarlett fought with me. I wished she would use her mark, but I didn't know what it did.

After a long time, she decided she needed it. "Wanna mess with the bull," She removed the cover, "You get the horns!" She activated her mark, and her wings appeared. She dove over a few loaders, knocking them over with her hook, with a few showoff-y tricks in there. She flew over top of the city. Maya and Lilith watched in astonishment. Their wings disappeared, so they were completely focused on the giant green 'bird' in the sky, and so was everyone else. Scarlett hovered for a bit, then shouted. More like a high pitched shriek. It busted all the windows, and the loaders engines malfunctioned. They shut down, and the engineers suits closed in around them. They looked like cans under a steam roller.

After minutes of high pitched yells, Scarlett landed, and her wings faded. She cracked her neck, and then returned to us. "Sorry 'bout that. Phaseshreik. Probably should have warned you of the noise." Her voice said sorry, but her face said 'Wanna kill me now?'. The others stared at her and I smiled. Then I remembered Patty.
