We all went up to the doors of the church, which were close. Mari tried opening it, but it wouldn't budge. I sensed dark magic the moment I placed my hand upon it. Wait, I hear something.
"No, stay back!", I hear someone shout from the other side.
"You verminous traitor, you thought you could spark a mutiny against ME and live?", said another voice, "We made a pact, Sabatini. You own me a debt, and death too"
*Gasp* No! We have to get him out of there!
"Wind Speaker, try to open this door!"
"Will do"
Wind Speaker press both hands onto the door and started muttering some words. A light blue line began surrounding the edges of the door and brakes the spell, causing the door to slam open.
"AAAACK!"
N-NOOOO!
"…Hmmm, and who be this?"
We…we were…too late. He killed him, with a sword through the heart. Captain Blood is questioning us, but I could answer watching how he just tossed Sabatini's body a side like he was trash. Tears run down my face, my body shivers, and I grip my staff. My expression has turn from sadness and anger.
"Tara?"
"You…YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!"
"Hahaha, I like to see you try", Captain Blood teased, "Get them lads", he said pointing his bloodied sword at us.
After he said that, a huge black smoke surrounded him. Suddenly, Captain Blood was gone. What was left was a group of undead skeletons.
"That coward!", I said in rage.
"Tara!", I heard Mari say while placing her hand on my shoulder, "I know you're ticked, but we've got to fight these guys and we're going to need you!"
"*Sigh* Okay", I said, "But we'll need some more help"
"WATCH OUT!", Mari shouted moving me out the way of an attack then blocking it, "What help, and…WHERE is it?!", she questioned struggling to hold her block then kicked the enemy back.
"…Here!", I shouted spinning my staff then slamming the top to the ground, "Rise, rise from the depth and serve me!"
"Wwweeeeee….ssseeerrrve"
I summoned the spirits from beyond and they possessed the skeletons laying on the ground around us. Some were full skeletons, while some were missing parts of their bones.
"Attack these undead pirate scum!", I command pointing to the enemy.
There was no hesitation, all of them started attacking.
"Hey save some for me!", Mari shouted running into the fight.
"Same for me", Wind Speaker said moving in.
Barracuda looked at me, as if waiting for my command.
"Do you wish to attack too?"
They stuck out its tongue, making a face of discuss. I agree, I wouldn't want to bite any dusty old bone either. I would joining the fight, but summoning THAT many undead, kinda tired me out. So I just use the juju spell on all of them. Which tired me out some more. I need to make an energy boost potion.
"AH!", the enemy shouted before being smashed into bone dust.
"HAHAHAHAHA, Tara did you see that?!", Mari laughed pointing at the fallen enemy.
"Watch your back Mari"
"Huh-OH BOY!", Mari shouted seeing the skeleton about to attack.
Mari quickly dodged the swinging swing that almost hit her, then before she could hit back, the skeletons ally stopped the next swing with its bone hands. This gave Mari a chance to strike back. Wind Speaker on the other hand, handled his fight really well. He grabbed a one of the enemies by the leg and started attacking the other skeletons with them. Heheh, it was pretty funny. Easy to say, this battle was ours to win.
"Wooohhooo, man that was fun!", Mari said smiling while resting her axe on her shoulder, "And you fought well, spirit"
"Thank you, it was quite fun"
Phew, glad that's over. My attention went over to Sabatini, I couldn't help but walk over to his body. I stood by it, feel sad how…we couldn't. I kneeled down and properly place him on the ground, and rest his arms on his chest.
"….I'm…so sorry", I said resting my hands on my knees tearing up.
"It's okay", said a voice.
Huh? I looked up and saw a light over Sabatini's body, it move to the side. And there he was.
"It wasn't your fault kid", Sabatini said to me, "But you must finish what I started"
"*Sniff*…What we're you doing to cause your death?", I asked wiping my eyes.
"I was trying to stop him by finding the cards"
"Cards?", Mari questioned.
"Yes the cards, the sisters will know what I'm talking about", Sabatini said, "You need to go to Isla de los Muertos"
"But we don't know where that is", Mari said.
"I do", Sabatini said, "Please, let me join you and help you stop that monster. Only then I can rest In peace"
"Alright", I said standing up, "Guild us to La…um, Ila de lo Mer ummm
"Isla de los Muertos", Sabatini corrected.
Y-yea, that", I said rubbing my head.
