--------------RECAP--------------"Don't take a tone with me, you redhead whore! Stay in there you three and don't make a sound! Got it?"
"Yes dear brother, we've got it."
"Kari! UGH! Why must you torment me?"
Giggles are heard from the room.
--------------STORY--------------A blue haired boy sat in his cabin. He shared it with four others, but currently he was the only one let in it. 'Davis has gone with Tai to reload weaponry and food supplies, like usual. Cody is up in the Navigation Cabin with Izzy trying to find the best way to get to the Isle del Muerto. T.K. finished the inventory and is making sure the oar slaves are doing ok. If not Tai'll have to go buy some later. Matt is in his cabin doing who knows what, probably sleeping. Joe is checking medical supplies. It seems everyone is doing something, everyone except me.' The 18 year old heaved a huge sigh. 'Guess there isn't much for a linguist to do on a pirate ship. I feel so useless. When I joined the Avenger crew, I thought I could be some use, but now I see that knowing 24 languages doesn't help us that much. Sure, I usually go shopping with them, in case they need a translator, but lately…'
He sighed yet again, continued his thinking, and spoke aloud, "Davis keeps this ship together, literally. He knows every inch of it and its makings. He worked in a shipyard for 5 years and was damn good at it. He helps restock spare supplies and parts for this ship. T.K. is Matt's younger brother. He takes care of inventory and watches the ship whilst everyone else the captain trusts—besides the Navigators—is on shore. Kari stays because Tai stays. She's also the 'diplomat' between the slave girls and the upper-rank crew. Izzy, well duh, that's obvious. He's the Navigator and Cody is training to be what Izzy is now. You need at least two navigators to know where you're going and in case one dies or something, I guess. Tai, well other than being Matt's best friend, he's the first mate. He bosses everyone around and has a good eye for slaves and food. He's a great fighter. For the most part, they all are. Tai's also great at smithy work, if ever we need the occasional chain or sword repair. He's really handy to have around. Joe, wow, yea he's great. He's the doctor. I think I'd like to try my hand at healing. He truly is a great doctor. But me? Where do I fit in? I translate languages. I, I," the boy heaved a great sigh again, "I do nothing. I'm just another slap-jawed average, rage buckling crew member."
"Beg your pardon Ken, but that's not true."
"Joe! I, I thought I was alone," Ken stuttered.
"It's alright. I'm sorry, I was just passing by when I heard you talking. Something great about Davis, I had to stop and listen."
Both boys snicker at the idea. "It's just, I don't feel like I should be in the top circle of crew members. What did I do to deserve it?"
"Believe it or not, you influence the Captain a lot. You help talk some sense into him sometimes. You are one of his dear friends. You helped start the Avenger. Do you realize that if you hadn't been there from the start, the Avenger would've never taken shape? You are a good diplomat yourself. And you're great at finding things. You are very loyal to the Captain, and he appreciates that so much. You are also the only one who can truly put Davis in his ease, T.K.'s conversationalist, and Tai's savior when he can't stand Davis. Also, if that isn't enough, you converse with Izzy, Cody and myself on a high intellectual basis. You have a knack for remembering everything, listen well, and are quite helpful. That is why you are also my apprentice."
"Wha'?"
"Yea! I asked Matt if you could be my apprentice since we have a growing need for a doctor the farther south we head. Sneezing, coughing, wheezing and everything pops up with the warmer weather. And you did say you'd like to try your hand at something. Matt at first was slightly hesitant, but I informed him that T.K. was technically his apprentice and had a big important job while out in the sea and Davis was in the same boat with T.K., being Tai's 'apprentice' but holding his own job at sea, and Cody was Izzy's true apprentice. I told Matt that you had an important job as well, but only seemed to be using it on land, and were the only cabin boy without a job, he agreed."
"Really?" asked an enthused Ken.
"Really, really," beamed Joe.
"Sweet!"
The boys just laughed and carried on excited, friendly conversations.
-------Elsewhere-------
A loud knocking came pounding through the English Oak door. A certain blonde headed 21-year-old stirred slightly. The banging continued.
"Captain!"
He rolled over and put his pillow over his head.
"CAPTAIN!"
"WHAT?" shouted the now half-awake man, standing up and reaching for his belt.
"We're all ready to go into town, just waiting for your orders."
"Tai, why don't you just go away?" he asked as he slipped his belt on. He walked to the door as he tightened the piece of leather around his muscular waist. He opened the thick, solid, embellished door and found his best friend staring off to the right.
"You there! Get away from there! Those whores are to remain locked up until we leave, understood?"
"Aye sir! Joel just wanted the redhead down in the kitchens."
"He can wait!" Tai shouted back. Whispering he added, "And she can stay locked up forever."
A chuckling captain asked his best friend, "Don't like her, eh?"
"Oh, hey Matt. A shirt is probably a good idea."
Yamato looked down at his bare, toned, tan chest and said, "You're probably right." He turned back in, grabbed a nice poofy-sleeved regal shirt and put it on. Buttoning the dark blue vest closed over the white shirt, he stepped into the sunshine. "All right, gather the crew."
"All hands on deck! You heard me! All hands on deck!" Tai roared.
"Looks like we have a gathering welcoming crowd on shore."
"I doubt it T.K. You'll have to be extra alert. If you thought Lorluga was bad brother, Southwort will blow your mind. 'Course last time we came, we didn't leave 'em too favorable towards us."
"Yea I remember."
The "upper-crust" of the crew had assembled in a circle off to the side of the deck by the slave girls' door.
"Why is every door we have English Oak?"
"Because Cody, it's strong! And durable and reliable and lasting and-"
"Alright Davis, I got it." Cody rolled his eyes at his friend's antics. Along with Cody and Davis, T.K., Yamato, Tai and Izzy had gathered to the right of the rest of the crew. Joe and Ken were just coming up from the cabins and barracks. The cabins where the seven friends slept were in a hallway that contained 9 rooms. One was for the Navigation Cabin, one for Kari, one for Tai, one for Joe, one for Izzy, and one for the four sharing a cabin. Once they gain a few more years, they can separate and have their own cabins. Then out of their side hallway is the main hallway with all the barracks. The 100 some odd crew slept there. Joel had his sleeping quarters off the kitchen. The ship had four doors around it. One for the captain's chambers, one for the 4 down stairs that lead to the slave girls' quarters, one for the cabins and barracks, and one final one that led to the levels below the barracks. In that one, the doctor's "office", the kitchen and the lowest decks resided. The slaves' quarters, the row deck, the supplies, the weaponry, everything was down that door. You would never guess that all that connected the way it did, but it was an amazing ship.
"Alright, we must be back here long before nightfall. It is midmorning now. Be back by mid afternoon. Tai, Davis, Ken and Joe, you will go do your supplies rounds. Take a few strong, trustworthy—as much as possible—crewmembers to carry your stuff for you. T.K., Izzy, and Cody will stay here with the slaves and a good portion of the crew. They can rotate in groups of I don't know, er, 25 or something to come spend a half-hour each out there. Get them off the ship. Maybe forty-five minutes, maybe an hour, but I'll let you three decide. The business of mine is my own. I feel slightly generous today for some reason, and will act upon it. So, you all know what to do. Have fun. It'll be the last time we dock for a while. And it's the 18th of April. 20 days since we had our first discussion, meaning 20 days have ticked off our 109 days, which means, 89 days are left. 89 days and we are right on schedule. Let's not blow this. We have one shot and the gap is closing fast. LET'S MOVE!"
Tai goes to inform the crew of the day's agenda while the other 6 go about their own business. Yamato walks over to the slave girls' cabin as the noise and commotion begin. The soft jingle of keys floats to the captain's ears as he pulls out the ring bearing an assortment of keys. He gently sticks one in the first door and unlocks it.
-------Meanwhile, in the "Hell Hole" -------
Three girls are sitting around, laughing their heads off at the horrified expression on the other one's face.
"There is hair sticking up? Where? You mean, my overly bushy hair is messed up? Oh no! Someone will pay!" The horrified expression turns to scrunched up anger as the actress gets up and shuffles, shoulders hunched and flexing her muscles, around the small room. She grunts with every step. The other three girls cannot stop laughing at her impression of the first mate.
"You sound just like my brother!"
The three girls all crack up laughing again.
"You know, even though he does that, it is kinda cute." Mimi giggles, "Wait! I mean!"
"OOOOOHHHHH!" The other three girls taunt.
"I totally did NOT just say that. Oh crap. Guys! SORA! Please remove yourself from the floor! It is NOT funny!"
The actress was rolling around on the floor, obviously thinking the fact that her best friend liking such a doof was hilarious. Kari and Yolei lost the breath they were holding and fell to the floor as well. The three were laughing so hard, they didn't hear the keys outside the door. But Sora heard them enter the lock and stopped laughing abruptly.
"Shh!" She hissed, "Get up!"
"No need, I could hear you down your mini hallway." Came the voice of the Captain. He opened the door and looked around. The scene was in fact, still comical. Sora was standing, looking defiant as ever (still hasn't done anything with the Captain) at him, arms crossed. 'She's so beautiful. Where the hell did that come from? Grip Ishida, get one!' He looked around to see Yolei and Kari frozen in the process of getting up and Mimi had her hands on her hips. He imagined instead of the shocked looks on the faces of the three younger girls, Mimi's had held a disapproving glare while Kari, Sora and Yolei's were lit up with laughter. Sora's now held a harsh glare. "Softening your gaze is not illegal, ya know," Yamato said as he looked at Kari. Sora scoffed, but didn't soften her gaze.
"I came to keep my promise. But, you are coming with me one by one. Kari, you won't take long, you will come first. So come on, let's go." He held out his arm for her to take. She calmly walked over and took it and they left the room. The three slave girls heard him lock both doors on the way behind them.
"They ruin all our fun," pouted Sora.
-------In Southwort-------
"What does he think he's doing back here? After the stunt he pulled last time? Didn't we tell him never to come back? Look at them! The crew will soon be drunk and we can get them to tell us anything."
"Don't be so sure. Not just anyone can be crew member on the Avenger."
"Anymore."
"Well yes, but still. You know…"
"They say Captain Ishida was 16 when he started that ship."
"Nope, he were 10."
"What?"
"Yup, he's been doin' this pirate thing for 11 years."
"Hmph. Still. He's a fucking bitch, and he will pay."
"Who's that girl with him."
"That's Kari, remember her?"
"Oh yea."
"Heh, heh. The boss'll be happy now…"
The two mysterious men run off in search of their boss.
-------Elsewhere-------
"Alright Kari, just pick a damn outfit. You can have two, since you have three already."
"Thanks Yamato!"
"Call me Matt."
"Wow, does that mean I'm part of your most trusted circle? 'Cause you only let seven people call you that."
"Well, how else am I supposed to deal with you?" He spat. She looked slightly taken aback, and hurt. "I'm sorry. I just thought I made it clear there was to be no love on my ship."
"Oh," Kari blushed a deep crimson.
"Whatever. Just, never again alright?"
"Thank you Matt. I'm sorry." She hugged him and grinned widely.
'Man, I must be getting soft' he thought, "Alright geroff! Just, pick something."
Ten minutes later, Kari had picked a beautiful pink dress with unique stars on them. They had a circle for the center and four long diamond shaped points. Four lines came from the diagonals to complete the star look. They were on the split ruffle in the center of her skirt. It was tight from her waist up and was sleeveless. The 2-inch straps rested on the edge of her shoulders with a wide squareish neckline. There were two skirts. The top layer opened at the waist and made an upside down V. It matched the soft pink top half of the dress. The white bottom skirt was visible only where the top skirt parted. The symbol stars were on the white skirt. (A/N: Work with me. I hate dresses and never wear them so…imagine for me please? Lol…) It was beautiful and complimented her figure nicely. She also had a pale yellow loose fitting, short dress that breathed quite nicely. It was spaghetti strapped and came down to her mid thigh. She knew the pale yellow outfit would be wonderful going south, but didn't know why she picked the royal looking dress. Maybe it was because it seemed so regal, but something inside her just wanted it. So she got it.
The two shoppers made their way to the checkout, when something caught the captain's eye. It was two men. They were just standing there, staring idiotically at them. One was tall and quite thin. One was short and quite fat. Both, however, were hairy and dirty and carried swords. Yamato put them away in his memory and led his best friend's little sister to the counter.
-------Back on the Avenger-------
"So, other than Tai, why doesn't Southwort seem to like the Avenger and her crew?" The other two just giggle. "Why?" They grew silent.
"Well Sora, erm."
"Yolei," Mimi sends their purple-headed friend a soft glare, "That is a story we let Kari tell."
"Yea, that's proper."
"Yea you two, no suspense or curiosity there," remarked the sarcastic redhead.
"It's just that we weren't here yet. It was the story on how Kari came to the Avenger."
-------Meanwhile, behind the clothing shop-------
"Remember. It was five and a half years ago."
"I remember sir." the tall one said.
"Aye, me too." the fat one agreed
"That blonde bastard took her away from me."
"And thebigger one!" the fat guy added.
"But mainly that brown-haired one." the tall one added.
"Yes, her brother."
"Left you humiliated didn't they? Auh, auh, auh," the fat guy laughed a horrible stupid sounding laugh.
"Yea, they did. But did you have to bring it up?" The tall, thin guy whispered out of the corner of his mouth. He had a higher voice and kinda evil-henchman sounding. The short, fat one had a deep voice with a hint of slowness to it.
"Mention it only if you want to die," shot the thicker man. He had a thick, not fat, profile and was tall, but not as tall as the other man. The three of them were sitting in the shadow of the shop.
"Sorry boss, duh, I didn't. It's just that t'ese tings are, just…arg."
"Pathetic."
"So what's the plan?" Hissed the tallest member.
"Well, here's what will do. Gather the others first."
-------"Hell Hole" -------
"Thank you again Matt."
"Your welcome Kari. You, you're next."
"Her name is Mimi."
"I knew that."
Kari giggled, Mimi and Yolei try to hide their smiles and Sora scoffed. The captain quickly regained his composure and held out a helping hand to the pink haired girl. Again, the soft click of the lock was heard as the two shoppers left the cabin.
"Poor Mimi," the redhead sympathized and shook her head.
"So Kari, what did you get?" Yolei beamed.
-------Back at the shop-------
"You are allowed to get three items."
"Anything?"
"Anything. You can get clothes, stuff for your quarters, anything."
10 minutes later, all Mimi had was a decent sized mirror.
"Can't you pick any clothes?" An exasperated captain asked.
The pink haired girl blushed and mumbled an apology.
"I'm sorry, it's just I never thought-"
"That something like this would happen. Yea well. Might as well. We've got some gold and treasure, why not?"
'Ever since Sor came aboard, he's acted so differently. He's actually being nice to us slave girls, instead of tolerant. Even still, wow that's a cute top' Her thought train was interrupted when she saw what looked like a t-shirt that would show her stomach. Upon closer inspection she saw that it was really like a jacket. It was a t-shirt that showed her stomach, had a tie in the front that looked like it would tie right below the middle of her chest and show off her wonderful figure. It was lime green and had a teardrop shaped symbol on the left side. But in the teardrop was a hole. The hole had a dot inside of it. Mimi knew she wanted it, but she looked and in her hands were a mirror for her and the others and a short summer dress that looked like Kari's. Only hers was pale pink instead of pale yellow. Sora had advised them not to get anything white. If she got the shirt, what would she wear with it? They were told to get something like the short summer dress for when they went south, but that would mean she would have to put back the mirror. Selflessly, she blinked and looked away, right onto a pair of neon orange capris. They were slightly baggy and had flowing legs. Mimi fell in love with them. The green top with the teardrop forgotten, Mimi picked up the work pant capris.
"'Guaranteed to last no matter how much scrubbing you do on your knees. Will last up to three years with proper use.' Oh! May I captain? Please?"
'Tai will kill me if I don't so' "Sure. But it's your three things."
-------Back on the Avenger-------
"So you got a fancy dress and a simple summer dress?"
"Yea Sor, I did."
"They are SO cute!" Yolei was all smiles. She couldn't wait for Mimi to come back so she could have a turn.
"Kari, what do you have in your room?"
"Everything. A mirror, a bed, everything my brother has."
"So, the lap of luxury eh?"
"Yea. It's quite nice," Kari looked guiltily around the small cabin her three best friends shared.
"Hey, don't worry about it. We're doing fine. Have been for years!"
"You're always so optimistic Yolei."
"And that's why we love her!"
"Mimi!" the other three shouted.
"What did you get?"
"The summer dress, these awesome capris and a mirror so we can admire our beautiful selves."
"And you called Yolei optimistic."
"Geeze Sor, we are all beautiful. Get over it."
"Next please." Yolei got up and walked towards a laughing captain. Sora just rolled her eyes at the trio of younger ladies. They really did amuse her.
"Whatever," she sighed.
-------Brown's Weaponry-------
"What kind of name is that?"
"Shut up Davis. Ah yes hi! You must be Mr. Brown."
"Ye', wha's it to da likes o' yee?"
"We'd like to make this purchase."
"Oh! Buseeness men, a'ight. C'mon o'er here den."
"Ken, what else do we have to do?"
"Well Joe, we went to the Armory, the Market, the Shipyard, the Miscellaneous store for medicinal and navigational supplies and tools. Food, armor, spare parts, our stuff; all we need but the weapons. We're doing that now.
-------Avenger's "Hell Hole" -------
"So you're trying to say that Tai was taken up to some other city, while you were sold down to Southwort?"
"Yea. When our parents were murdered, I guess it's just how things went. Tai had worked at that blacksmith's for almost seven years. I was just a baby, but I knew I would never forget my brother. I had a picture with me of my mom, dad, Tai and me. I was one, Tai was five, when they were murdered. Tai was taken away after that and I didn't see him until I was 12."
"Wow, eleven years. I feel even more sorry for him now."
"Yes Meems, your heart just sends out to him. He's a pirate, and as such cannot be trusted. You'll do better to take my advice and demolish those feelings before anyone else finds out."
"Sor-"
"Kari, continue," the redhead tried to desperately change the subject. 'I already had it happen to me. It doesn't need to happen to you too. You don't deserve it'
"T.K.'s a pirate."
"I meant with the story."
"Well, when I was 10, there was this guy. Roberto was his name. He was 15. He claimed to have fallen in love with me. He tried desperately to get me to be his. I wouldn't."
"Smart girl." Sora interjected.
They laugh and Kari continues, "Well, the only thing worth telling is a couple months before I turned 13, a ship arrived here. A ship called the Avenger. They came and something happened. My brother could tell you-"
"But he won't," Sora helped.
"No," Kari laughed, "But, the next thing anybody knew, a huge fight started. Eventually while I was trying to get away from Roberto, I ran right into someone."
"Tai?" Mimi asked.
"No, it was T.K."
"I'm telling the story!" Kari playfully rounded on Sora.
"Well?"
"Yea, alright. It was T.K. Anyways!" Kari yelled over the ooohhhhs of her two companions, "Something seemed to happen. I looked at him, and he looked at me. It was like I knew what Roberto thought he knew. I was living through everything he said he had. I just got lost in those clear blue eyes."
'Tell me about it. Wait a minute. Sora, easy girl'"Well, Roberto came and yelled at T.K. to let go of his girl. One look at me was all he needed to know I wasn't. They pulled out their swords and just as they were about to fight, Tai came rushing with Matt. It was three on three. Eventually T.K. shot Roberto in the arm and they got away. Luckily they took me with them. About twenty minutes later, Tai--who was close to 17--and I realized who we were. Tai looked at Matt, and Matt nodded. T.K. escorted me to the ship while Tai and Matt ran off somewhere. I've been with the Avenger ever since."
"Wow."
"Yea so. I'd say it's all been interesting."
"Sora?"
"We are all so different, yet all so the same."
"What do you mean?" asked Kari.
"I think I know," Mimi pondered.
"Welcome back Yolei!" Sora cut the conversation short. Five seconds later, the door swung open.
"Thanks Sor! Look! I got this really awesome thing. So I got the sundress thing and it's ok I guess. It's a light lavender."
"Matches your hair. You learn well young one." The four girls giggle.
"Thanks Meems. You taught me after all. Then, the awesome thing, I got the pants you had Meems, only mine are light purple. I love how they're the same material as our old rags (sarcasm). On the bottom, around the edge look! It has the teardrop symbol and this funky heart. It's a swirl on one side and on the other; it has a target, the hole with a dot. They're supposedly great for scrubbing on your knees," Yolei added when she saw the skeptical look on Sora's face. Yolei looked at Mimi and continued, "I saw what you were talking about. I really wanted one too. But instead of that lime green, the light purple. What? Purple's my favorite color and the lightness of it helps! But I did get this bandana. The other one got lost in that one storm back last week. I feel so naked without one. It's a blue-purple."
"I don't know if I'd call those capris. They go to right below your knees."
"Well Kari, geeze, they aren't pants, they aren't shorts. They are low rising though, really low rising." Mimi sighed. She did like to have more coverage, but they were the only things that would cover their knees in there. The longest anythings were the regal dress Kari bought and the capris Mimi and Yolei got. Everything else went to upper mid thigh and shorter. It was a shop for slave girls after all. The regal dress however, no one understood why it was there, but there was only one so, meh?
"Ahem," the captain cleared his throat, "Sora. I believe you are next in this thing we call order."
"Joy," she drawled.
-------Behind Brown's Weaponry-------
"So when you said, they had one more girl to shop for, you meant they would tomorrow right?" The sarcasm was apparent in the leader's voice. He was running out of patience, and time.
"Sir, they said one more."
"You are just lucky your companion found the rest of them. Too bad only one is here, her brother. Oh well. He will have to do. The captain would hurt the blonde brat, because they are brothers. But, the bush head will do. I'd've rather had the one that shot me and took my love away, but, he will do I guess."
"Yes sir."
-------Inside Brown's Weaponry-------
"Lemme jus' go to da back. See if'n I got yee one mor'."
"Alright, that'd be great Mr. Brown."
"You are so patient Ken. You and Joe both."
"Well Davis, if you don't hang around Tai so much, you might have some patience too."
"I heard that Joe!" They all just laugh.
"What's taking him so long?" asked Davis.
"There he is," said Ken.
"Wha' der yous t'ink yer tryin' to pull here eh? Tellin' me dat yer here to buy, when you don't half any money?"
"We've got plenty of money sir."
"Well then hand it over."
"YOU!" Tai spat in surprise and disgust.
"Aye, me."
"Who?" asked Davis, Ken and Joe.
"The Roberto!"
The Avenger's four representatives sweatdrop at the henchmen. "Pathetic," whispers Davis.
"Now you KNOW it's pathetic if Davis says it is."
"Hey!" Davis looks at Tai and pretends to be hurt.
"Get them!" Roberto shouted.
What no one noticed were the five other crewmates of the Avenger slip out with the weapons and head back to the ship.
-------The Clothing Shop-------
"I said they could get three things each."
Something caught the redhead's eye, "May I have four?"
"Four?"
"Yea, Kari's third." She said slyly.
The captain sighed, "There's no saying no anyways right?"
"Nope."
"Sure."
"Good," and Sora walked right over to the rack. She picked up the lime green top and the light purple top her friends had wanted. "Two down, two to go."
"Sir, why does she get four?"
"Because Avery, Kari got two. And I did say the other got three things."
"Righ' sir. Why did I come again?"
"To carry back her stuff."
"Righ'."
"Ok, I'm done. The stuff is in two bags. The bags are marked. They just need to be paid for."
"Avery."
"Yes Cap'ain."
"So, you got the two tops for your friends, the summer dress and what else?"
"I didn't get the summer dress."
"Wha? Then what did you get?" The shocked captain asked.
"None of your business," she turned and started to walk away.
He grabbed her hand and gently, but firmly pulled her back. "It is my business. I bought it right?"
"Stop it Yama, someone could see!" She violently whispered.
"Yama eh?"
"Yamato. Whatever! Just let go."
"You're my slave girl. You have to do what I want."
"And die for it? NO!" She hissed again.
"You don't die for sexual relations with a captain. You don't die if I hold onto you to keep my property, because babe, you cost a hell amount of my money. You only die if you get together with a captain. No relationship of any kind other than sexual. Most definitely, NO marriage."
"Well, then I guess I don't have to worry," she sighed. She was not defeated however, "just let go!" She twisted her wrist around to break free, but he twirled her with it and pressed her back against his chest.
He put his mouth right next to her ear and whispered, "Ah, ah, ah. No, no baby. You're staying right here with me."
'I hate it when he uses that voice. So husky, and deep and sexy and…WOA where did that come from? SORA! Honestly'
His warm breath on her ear tickled her every nerve.
"We should," Sora's breath caught in her throat. She cleared it and said, "we should really, probably, maybe, I mean. We should get back to the ship."
He pouted, then smirked, "Ok."
"CAPTAIN!"
"Avery?"
"The five remaining crew members just returned. They were with Tai and the others. They said they were ambushed! Half of our men went to help them, but it's not enough. T.K. is keeping the other half on the ship, but we need more men! They are outnumbered four to one!"
"How many did you say were sent to help?"
"About fifty sir!"
"Shit! Avery, take Sora back to the ship! Lock up the girls and send as many men possible to come help!"
-------Southwort's Court Circle-------
Fifty-three of the Avenger's crew along with Tai, Davis, Joe, and Ken are all fighting two or three men at a time. Lucky for them, they are the best fighters to sail the seven seas. Not just anyone was a pirate on Yamato's ship.
"My sister died years ago!"
After the initial shock and 'oh shit' look left Roberto's face he claimed, "Heartbreak no doubt!"
"Wow, I thought that would call you off. Get off me you fool!"
It's just one big bloody mess. Men from Southwort were laid low. Jaseem was taking on five or six at a time. He was a tall, strong, black man from the Middle East. A Moor. (A/N: I think. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm thinking of the one guy from Robin Hood Prince of Thieves) He was a wonderful asset to the Avenger and her crew. He saved Davis and Ken a few times from joining the already rotting carcasses strewn about the port town's ground. The fighting became more intense as 37 highly trained crewmen of the Avenger joined in with their Captain at the head.
