Talk Like a Pirate Day

[Feebeefi]

*DPK sticks her hand out and waves it franticly for she has no air left*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

somoen grabs it and pulls her out of the water, its Will.

[Feebeefi]

*Will pulls DPK out.DPK is gasping for breath*

Thanks..................Will

*stands up and looks for Eomund*

He must have thought I was dead.Well the White Shark won't sink anymore!!

[Nessa the Dancer]

She needs bailing out though.
grabs some large buckets goes down to the flooded areas and starts baliling the water out the mast will have to wait for a bit till the water has gone.

[Eomund]

thinks whats goin' on.... interesting....

[Feebeefi]

*gives Eomund some buckets*

You can help us along with everyone to get rid of the water

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

there has to be a faster way, if only we could pump it out.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess goes backk into the cave and brings out large planks of wood. She tosses them to those on deck.* Here! Use 'em! I'm gonna git some some o' the treasures ter sell at our next port. OY! WAT BE THAT? *points at the Black Pearl.* I CLAIM IT AS MINE!!!!!!!!!!! *swims over to the Pearl and climbs onto its deck. She starts to empty the captain's room.* Bloody Barbossa!!!!!

[Feebeefi]

Thanks Bess!!

*looks at the broken mast*

We can't go anywhere til this is fixed.
*looks at eveyone* Any suggestions?

[Nibinaraniel]

WE CAN MAKE PORT HERE FOR A FEW DAYS!!!!! *shouts from the Pearl.*

[Feebeefi]

I am on the Pearl IBKlol

Well we need to think of something.We can't stay here forever.
*goes and gets some rum*

THIS will help us to think better!lol

[Nibinaraniel]

*smiles as she tastes rum for the first time in ten years. A grin spreads across her face.* How, bout' we build a new mast? There be plenty o' wood inside the cave. Oh, an' don't touch anything inside of the chests. Jes' the gold outside of them is safe.

[Wilwarin]

((Is it just me, or did the Black Pearl sink? I thought it sunk......*looks back several pages*....yep! It did. So I don't know what you guys are doin', unless yer wearing scuba gear you better get back to the White Shark.))

Anyway!

*Captain Wil is laying in the cave still, hurt very badly from a sword wound given to her by Barbosa just before Bess took over the fight. There is blood all over and she feels very faint. Looks around to see dead pirates laying every where, but all of her own crew have left*
Well, it looks like this is the end. I never though I would die here in this acursed place.
*A sound atracts her atention. It is her faithful monkey, Captain Jack. He comes over to her and grabs on to her thumb*
Ahh Captain Jack. Can ye git back to the White Shark? Tell them I'm still here.
*Pulls off her ring and gives it to the monkey*
Give this to someone on the ship, Jack. Show them where I am. Go!
*Watches as Captain Jack puts the ring in the pocket of his little vest, then runs with all speed out of the cave. Then she closes her eyes, and continues to bleed all over the stone floor from the sword wound in her side*

[Talorcen]

*Elcircano Talorcen cautiously steps into the cave*

I know such places are frequented by the likes of me. And I'm a stranger in these seas.

*spins round as he hears a moan*

A wounded sailor. She will need help.

*kneels down and unpacks some herbs and clean linen*

Just well I've learned a thing or two about treating a wound. Let's see, burdock juice, thyme, crushed coltsfoot leaves, cobwebs - well, that should make a suitable poultice to stop the bleeding and clean the wound.

"Lie still," he says to the sailor as she writhes with the sudden pain. "I'm trying to help you."

*after the bandeges having been applied, Wilwarin tries to sit up*

"Do you have a ship near?", the stranger asks, or shall I get some of my men from the Pride of Cosenza to bring you there, to safety?"

*Walwarin shakes her head*

"Let me stay here," she whispers.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess comes running in, looking very concerned.* Captain Wil?!? Cap'n!!!!!! YE ALIVE?!?! *hears a sound and draws her sword.* Cap'n? That be ye?

[Eomund]

Were is da Cap'n? I dont no.

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

hey listen, if we used the ropes and the mast of the defiant then we could build a wrench to lift up the mast and attach it to the ship.

[Eomund]

yes,
*starts doing what Will says*
good point

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

I thought so.

[Eomund]

and you were right, start working

[Feebeefi]

*watches IBK run back to the cave.DPK follows and finds the captain*

CAP'AN!!! But I thought *looks back and looking confused*

Never mind.Lets get ye back to the Shark!!

*DPK lifts Wil and puts her in a boat and goes back to the shark theh rushes her to her cabin*

Anyone of ye good at medicine?!!!!

[Eomund]

no...... w'ere were you

[Feebeefi]

IBK went back to the caves and I went to see why and found the cap'an.

*DPK gets some cloth and cleans up some blood and is then left with a big wound*

Can one of ye get a CLEAN cloth from the Galley??

[Eomund]

okay

*runs and returns quickly.*

what now. Ship is almost repaired, where will ye go now?

[Feebeefi]

Thanks

*DPK wraps the bandage round*

Hopefully it'll heal quickly.

I don know.It be up to our Cap'an....

[Eomund]

Who ougt to be in command? Cap'n! W'ere is she.

[Feebeefi]

sssssssh!!

I made the cap'an go to sleep. She be in terrible pain and needs to rest.

I think we should stay here for a few days until the Cap'an is well enough to make decisions.

[Eomund]

okay. now should we eat?

[Feebeefi]

Well I think Red Morgan's cookin somethin but if you go down and try to nick anything you'll be sorry.
Trust me I know from experience.

Lets have a look at that mast

[Talorcen]

Is this thread reserved for certain people?

I joined last night - though I had to leave to go to sleep - and when I now returned I noticed it was completely ignored that I had found Wil in the cave and seen to her wound.

Confused :(

[Eomund]

*No sorry but you may join*

okay, look wills idea gave us a good beginning.

[Feebeefi]

*DPK turns to see someone climbing aboard the Shark*
Hey!!You're that person from inside the caves.I'm sorry but I had to get the Cap'an back here.

Welcome to the White Shark!! I be Dread Pirate Kidd but call me DPK:grin:

What be your pirate name?

[Eomund]

Yes and i am Eomund. DPK and I greet you in this faboulus thread.

[Feebeefi]

*DPK watches as this new person goes all shy*

Don't fear!! We will not harm you!

*turns to Eomund*

Do you think we should go to Tortuga??Maybe the mast will hold out long enough then we can get it properly repaired

[Eomund]

Yes, closest place! Defiant, move besides us!!!

[Feebeefi]

*yells to the Defiant*

We're goin to Tortuga!!

Now since the crew have now dissappeared somewhere I'll need your help Eomund.
As long as we don't run into any storn we'll be a'right

[Eomund]

Im always in your command, DPK! Now what shall i do!!!

[Feebeefi]

Lower the sails.We are now of to Tortuga!!

*goes to the wheel*

Since there's no-one around I'll take the helm!

[Eomund]

Helm? Aaaaa.. yes now we should look that golden sable i found!

[Feebeefi]

Eomund look ahead and see if there are any ships heading our way and check the weather as well

[Eomund]

Okay

*starts looking for ships and sees none, goes to chech temperature and finds out that it is about 30C.*

30C, no ships!!!

[Feebeefi]

Phew lets hope this weather lasts!

*DPK gollows the Defiant to Tortuga*

[Eomund]

Yeah we would be in a great thanks, one HOUR more and we will be there!

[Feebeefi]

YES!! We're here!!

There it is!!............Tortuga!!!

*looks up* Just in time as well. A storm looks like it's brewing

[Eomund]

huuh... we are saved closly, how is it Defiant? Look tortuga is burning.

[Feebeefi]

Nah it always looks like that!

*steers ship into shelter*

The Cap'an doesn't look too good. Take everyone to the pub and get us in a few drinks.I'm just going to help Wil

[Eomund]

Okay.... conquering conquerors we must conquer the bar that is unconqured!!!!! (hey i dont know what i wrote there.)

Charge!!!!!!

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

what in the devils name are you talking about man?

[Eomund]

We are charging an bar for ale!!!!! Will come on!!

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

erm ok

CHARGE!!!!

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan Flint turns to the new crew member Hello there friend, my name is Morganna, better known as Mad Morgan Flint . Welcome aboard! Although now it seems we all have to disembark for a while. From what I've seen the Galley needs restocking and I must see if I can find a cat if they have them here.
Why don't you come with me and we'll see what we can find.

turns to DPK Is that fine with you?

[Feebeefi]

Sure everyone can go and do what they want in Tortuga. I'm just tending the Cap'an. She ain holdin out as well as I thought

[Wilwarin]

*Wil moans from her bed and opens her eyes. She sees DPK, Mad Morgan and a stranger standing by her side*
Wha...what's goin' on? What happened?

[Eomund]

*in da bar*

a ale of beer now!!!!

[Feebeefi]

Cap'an we have a new crew mate.
Lie still.You were badly wounded in the caves and this person saved your life.

How are ye feelin now?

*DPK looks concerned*

[Eomund]

*in the bar*

Will, w'at ya think if da cap'n is okay? We ought to go to see 'er.

[Wilwarin]

*Wil takes another look at the stranger, but her vision is hazy. She looks at DPK again*
I feel.....uhg! *Winces in pain*
Where's Captain Jack? I sent him to look fer you.

[Feebeefi]

Cap'an??

*notices Wil looks very pale.DPK checks the wound to see the bandage has come off.DPK puts a new one on and ties it up tight*

Hopefully that'll sort things out

JACK!!

*Jack runs and jumps on her shoulder*

[Eomund]

*runs to the ship and finds there capn okay*

yay, cap'n are you alright!

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan turns to stranger
Shall we go my friend? And what is you name?

heads off into the town in search of suplies and a cat

[Feebeefi]

Cap'an do you feel strong enough to go into Tortuga?

*Wil shakes head*

In that case....*pulls out some rum* we'll drink here then!

[Wilwarin]

*Wil winces again from the monkey jumping on her. She lifts her arm weakly and pats his head* Good old Jack.
*Looks at DPK again* Where are we?

[Eomund]

Tortuga, sir? *says Eomund coming there quickly.*

Have you haven a good night sleep.

[Wilwarin]

Tortuga? What are we doin' here? What happened? What about the Black Pearl and Barbosa? *Winces again and takes a deep breath*

[Eomund]

Barbarossa dead, Black Pearl destroyed or at least we t'ink so! Mast broken to us!!!

[Feebeefi]

OK I'll explain.
Barbossa and crew dead
We were attacked by several ships and all them dead
Our mast was destroyed but we built a temporary one
We thought we would go to Tortuga to get it fixed

I thinks thats about it

o and the curse was lifted:grin:

Update: Eomund you are so quick!

[Eomund]

yay, she got a better review, mine was a close one. How ya feelin'?

[Wilwarin]

*Wil hears the news but doesn't respond. She is finding it more dificult to speak. She closes her eyes for a full minute and the others think she has fallen asleep. Then she opens them again*
DPK. I'm not doin' too good, am I?

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan and the stranger enter the town and Mad Morgan starts hunting for the stores
We need food that's going to last and plenty of it. Hope they wont mind me borrowing some money, it is for the good of the ship.
They enter a store and start searching out supplies

[Eomund]

I think not, can i go to search some medicine? It would be a great help to you.

[Wilwarin]

*Wil tries to laugh but then thinks better of it* Eomund. Sucking up to the captain are ye? I haven't forgoten what you pulled back at the cave. I don't take direct disregard fer orders lightly. Ye just watch yerself.

[Feebeefi]

Lie still Wil.Ye will feel bad for a few days

*looks worried then has an idea*

Rum!!!! It brilliant at healing!!

*undoes bandages and cleans the wound with rum then wraps it back up*

Thats should help ye a little

What ye need is blood.Ye lost a lot in those caves

[Eomund]

W'at???????? Caves????? I dont remember anything????

[Wilwarin]

Thank ye mate *she says to DPK. Ignores Eomund*
DPK, Take car o' things around here fer me will ya? Keep an eye on Eomund. Don't leave Tortuga until I can take command again, or at least until I say.
*White spots swim before her eyes. Winces again*
Take care of Captain Jack fer me too. He'll be hungry.
*Closes eyes and is completely out of it*

[Feebeefi]

*DPK nods*

Will do Cap'an.Sleep is the best thing for ye now.Call when ye wake up so I can take anther look at ye

Eomund go and have some fun in Tortuga since ye haven't been before.But if ye can go to the medicine shop and get a mess of stuff then I be grateful

*goes and feeds Monkey Jack*

[Talorcen]

I give up on this. Obviously, no one has read my post. Not only did I clean and bandage Wil's wound, I also have my own ship.

Sorry, it was perhaps a wrong idea to join an ongoing game.

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

see's talorcen

hello I'm will.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess walks in and smiles at Talorcen.* Thank ye, ye did a grea' favor in findin' Cap'n Wil! I be Iron Bess Kidd. An' ye are? *holds out a hand in greeting.* I don' bite, ye know..... *mutters "hard under her breath.* Why the bloody 'ell did ye leave yer ship at the Isle DeMuerta? *looks around.* Good ol' Tortuga! *frowns a moment and runs off to see the Captain. She tosses the new pirate a package as she runs.* Where be Cap'n Wil?

[Talorcen]

I didna leave ta Pride of Cosenza behind of my free will. One of ye sons of a klabauterman put a cutlass to my throat. Thought mayhap I'd poked that hole into yer captain, while the only thing I did was to clean and bind her wound. And all that messing around wit' ta bindings and rum won't improve her condition, I'm 'fraid. I ken a bit 'bout healing.

Weel, as it goes, after some time, ta feller wit' ta cutlass disappeared, and he better makes sure I won't see him ta next few hours.

My navigation officer will come after me with ta Pride of Cosenza, and in case I've gotten enough rum into me til then, I'll tell him the whole thing was a misunderstanding. I'm not the type to bear grudges.

I'm known as Agantyr, though I haven't sailed the Caribbean yet. I'm more at home in the northern seas. Hunting whales an' sic.

[Nibinaraniel]

*comes running back after she couldn't find the captain.* Welcome aboard, Agantyr! Ye hun' whales? Wat fer? No decent pirate would hun' whales...... *scrutinizes him.* Ye really don' look like on...... *thinks, then pulls out two bottles of rum.* I got me own stash. Ye up fer a drink?

[Talorcen]

Always, tack sa mycket.

*opens the bottle, throws his head back and let its contents run down his throat*

To tell ye ta truth, hunting whale makes a fine lot of siller. We had a contract wit' ta king of Norway that worked well for a long time. But on our last journey his good-fer-nothing son insisted in coming wit' us. Now, mind ye, ta lad was a landlubber if ye've ever seen one, and a nuisance. And one day, he happened to go overboard.

*grins mischieviously*

Not that ta king was overly fond of his son, but he put a price on my head, nevertheless. That's why I'm here now.

[Nibinaraniel]

*grins widely.* Well, yer safe here!

[Talorcen]

*grins back*

I hope so. I renamed my ship, the Svarta Hravn for Pride of Cosenza to erease any trace of my origins.


(It is some fun to keep trace of two forums, and at the same time write a short story retelling a Breton legend - in a very different style. At least, my background music, "Don Sebastiano" by Donizetti, suits the pirates somewhat.)

[Nibinaraniel]

Anne? Ye alive?????

[Eomund]

I 'ink shes alive. IBK, how's da cap'n feelin'?

[Feebeefi]

The Cap'an seems to be a lil better but we have to wait and see.She has left me in charge of the Shark til she's better.

Welcome Agantyr!!! Welcome abroad the White Shark!!

Crewmates, feel free to do what ye like in Tortuga. I'll stay here with the Cap'an and tend to her

[Wilwarin]

*Wil stirs again. She sees DPK sitting in a chair on the other side of the cabin drinking rum. Wil lifts up her blankets and sees a bunch of bandages on her side, all soaked and dripping with blood, staining the bedsheets* uhg, no wonder I feel so bad.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess comes into the room, looking very concerned.* Cap'n? I be sorry fer all the trouble I cause ye. I'm no' worth so much. Maybe I shoul' leave ye....

[Wilwarin]

Ah Bess, ye are a handful I'll give ye that. Ye just need t' realize that I am the captain of this ship, and when I give orders I mean them to be followed. But if yer truely sorry I guess I can forgo putting ye the stocks this time. I don't want ye t' leave, just don't let anythin' like this happen again!

Now, as fer Eomund, he's another matter. He isn't sorry fer his misbehavin', infact, he denied doin' any thin' wrong! I think a night in the stocks will be good fer 'im. *looks around* where is the troublemaker anyway?

[Nibinaraniel]

Understood, Cap'n! Haven' seen Eomund since we go' here, mam. Shall I go fin' 'im, cap?

[Wilwarin]

Aye, why don't ye do that. And where is the person I hear saved me life? I haven't been able to thank him properly yet. Or is he a she? I was so out of it the last time and I couldn't see clearly either.
*Winces in pain and tries to shift her position* ye know, I don't think me wound has stopped bleedin' yet. I wish we had a ship's surgeon, I think the wound needs to be stiched up, it's rather deep. Barbosa's sword went in quite far.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess pulls out some thread and a needle.* The man who saved ye is on board. Allow me ter sew tha' up fer ye cap. I'll go and find Eomund after I finish. Hol' still. * cleans the needle with some rum and stitches up the wound.* There ye go! I'll fin that bloody coward!

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr comes in and peeps over Bess' shoulder.*

"That doesn't look nice, but at least, it isn't festering. Seems my cleansing has worked, after all. Here, leave at little bit of the wound unstitched, even if that means a bit more blood oozing out. There is some miasma breeding in stitched wounds that will cause problems. If the oozing turns a clear liquid, it'll be fine. If there's pus, the wound will need to be cleaned with a hot iron."

*Bess looks at him in astonishment. Not only seems Agantyr to know quite a bit about surgery, he also has changed into a speech more educated than before.

He catches her look.*

"Aye, I have had some education. I'm the son of a nobleman, being born on the wrong side of the bed. My mother was a diarymaid, but very pretty. My father sent me to a monastery for a few years to learn to read and write, and some more things. I didn't mind, though I liked the lessons in sword fighting far better."

*He sighs.*

"In a way I belong nowhere. Too educated for a whale hunter or pirate, too low for a nobleman."


I do indeed know a bit about Mediaeval medicine.

[Nibinaraniel]

(As do I.)

I myself was educated, though much was in Rome. I was just making due with what I had. *hands him the needle.* So ye think ye kin do a better job, well go ahead, sir. *she says sir very sarcastically. He seems to forget that she is a Kidd.* I come from a noble line, meself. Bu' look where education got me! On the seas as a pirate! Not that I don' like it, bu' many would argue tha' I should have become a more respectable*said with disgust* lady. Bu' I love the freedom o' the sea. Naught better than bein' equal ter a man, says I. *looks over at Wil.* I best be goin' ter fin' th' Eomund... bloody traitor.... *mumbles in Latin about what she would do to Eomund if he was one of her crew members. She grabs a few guns and checks their ammo.* Cap? I be gettin' some food too, I haven' eaten in ten years... *grins at Agantyr. She mouths "Aztec gold" to him before bowing her head politely.*

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr takes up the needle and continues stitching Wil's wound.*

"High time my men come hither with the Pride of Cosenza," he mutters, "I'm in dire need of my scrolls and books. I don't know a thing about those Carribean Pirates. And that bodes trouble."

*He finishes the dressing of the wound. Wil is still unconscious.

Agantyr takes a seat at the table, gets a piece of parchment, a quill and a bottle with half-dried ink out of his portmanteau, and continues to write the tale about Mylior of Kerouac and Riothain of Kêr Ys. He is a skald, after all.


Frontunatley, nowadays there are not only scrolls, but the internet. I have to keep up on the pirates - a research that might well result in another story. :)

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess returns without Eomund, but with supplies. She smiles at Agantyr.* So what ye be doin' in the Caribbean, mate? Yer name sounds Icelandic....

[Elfdaughter]

*ED comes round. She must have taken a blow on her head. She groans.* What 'appened?

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

picks his mum up "you got hit on yer head and you fell over"

[Elfdaughter]

I can tell that. Are we back on the Defiant now, then?

[Eomund]

Hey Bess,

*runs up to the ship.*

why ye left me down 'ere.

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan walks out of the town, with a sack of suplies for the White Shark galley over her shoulders and a black and white cat winding his way around her ankles. She walks up the gangplank and then down into the galley, she puts the suplies she bought in their places in the galley and the cat sets to work on the mice straight away

Mad Morgan leaves the cat to work and goes to find the Captain.

[Eomund]

*meets Mad Morgan, who is searching cap'n. *

Where 're ya goin'? If ya wanna see da cap then shes on da deck.

[Wilwarin]

*Wil wakes up again, feeling somewhat better. She looks around and sees the stranger sitting at a table writing in a scroll. Somehow that strikes her as odd fer a pirate*
Hey, you, stranger. I wanted t' thank ye fer savin' me life. Sorry I haven't been more hospitable, but, ye know, I've been kind of out of it. Where did ye come from anyway? Why were ye at Isla de Muerta?

[Eomund]

Ya, we 'ought want to know it also?

*said Eomund who stepped into the room with Mad Margan*

[Wilwarin]

There you are Eomund! I've had Bess out lookin' fer ye. I want to 'ave a talk with ye. Sit down.

[Eomund]

What is it cap'n?

*sits down. Not feeiln quite comfortable any more*

[Wilwarin]

You disobeyed my direct orders back there at the cave. I told ye t' stay on the ship and fight the Dauntless, but instead ye followed me into the cave. I don't take stuff like that lightly. I am the captain of this ship, not you. I should keelhaul ye fer what ye did. But I think I'll just put ye in the stocks fer one night without food or drink. What d' ye have to say fer yerself?

[Eomund]

hey, I help'd ye out there!!!!!!! It's ain't fair!!!

[Wilwarin]

Aye, maybe ye did. But that don't make it all better, ye still disobeyed my direct orders and I won't stand fer that on this ship. *Closes her eyes fer a moment and takes a deep breath. Doesn't feel so good doin' all this talkin'*
I'm not goin' t' agrue with ye Eomund. I need t' learn you a lesson, it wouldn't be fair to the others or to me if I let you off the hook, because then I'd have t' let everyone off when they do somethin' bad. I can't do that, not if I want t' keep my authority as captain.

[Eomund]

aaaaarghhh, so it seems like i should obey it!!!

[Wilwarin]

Aye, that would be a good idea. *Motions to the others in the room* One of you take Eomund out and put him in the stocks.
*Turns back to Eomund* Maybe you'll learn yer lesson now eh? It's just one night Eomund. We'll let you out in the morning.

[Eomund]

Okay, need to sleep anyway

*is taken to the stocks, there he fells asleep!!!*

[Wilwarin]

*Shakes her head as Eomund is led away*
I think I'm goin' t' take a little nap as well. I'm feelin' very weak and tired. *Looks at others in the room* Wake me if anythin' happends. *Is asleep in less than a minute*

[Talorcen]

"It's ok, ye had other things on yer mind, I understand." *Agantyr smiles*

"Tell ye my story, weel, I'll make it short. I'm from Norway, illegitimate son of a nobleman, got an education in a monastery. That's where I've learend a bit 'bout healing, which comes handy now and then. Was a mercenary in the war with Sweden, then took to whale hunting, as it's a verra profitable business. Too bad the kings son, a god-fer-nothing landlubber, had an accident while on my ship. The king took it personal an' put a price on my head, thus I renamed the Svarta Hravn for Pride of Cosenza an decided to sail south. We were 'bout to take in freshwater on Isla de Muerta, when I found that cave. Now, ye can find all sorts of things in caves, ye ken, an' I went explorin'. When I helped the captain here, one of his men got it a bit wrong and put a cutlass to my throat."

Agantyr gulpes some rum, and continues.

"So, I'm an able fighter and ken my part of navigation an' sic. I'm a story-teller, too." *looks at Wil.* "That's why you caught me writin'. My ship will be here soon. I s'ppose you've an open bill with the feller who made that hole in your body, am I right?"

[Wilwarin]

*Wil opens one eye* Interestin' story. Good thing it took less than a minute to tell, or else I would have been asleep! lol So ye 'ave yer own ship eh? Would ye like t' join me fleet? We could always use an extra set of sails in a tight spot.
As fer that bloody cheatin' Barbosa who gave me this here maggot hole, I would be huntin' 'im down right now if he was still alive. Good thing he ain't. One of my crew, Iron Bess Kidd, killed 'im in the cave.

[Feebeefi]

*DPK wakes up from the chair to see the captain awake and talking*

Cap'an!! How ye feelin now?

Is there anythin I can do for ye? Where's Eomund? Did ye put him in the stocks?

Good, that'll do him a world of good!

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess comes in, looking rather strange. She is all red and sweaty, not to mention breathing heavily. Her eyes are wide with fear.* Ye'll ne'er believe this, bu' the Pearl is back... *She falls to the floor in her state of delusion. She has a high temperature. It appears she has an illness.*

[Wilwarin]

Aye DPK, I be feelin' a little bit better. Still very weak and tired though.

*Wil is interupted and looks up at Bess* What do ye mean the Pearl is back? I thought it sank. How can it come back? Are ye sure it's the Pearl and not just some other ship that looks like the Pearl? Not that it matters anyway, the curse is broken and Barbosa is dead.

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess lies on the floor, burning up from a high fever.*

[Wilwarin]

Ye ok mate? Somebody get her a glass of water, take her down to the galleys. Don't worry Bess, we'll get this straightened out
*Looks around* where's young Will? Tell him to get the spyglass and take a look at the ship Bess is talking about. It can't be the Black Pearl, she's been sunk. I want to know who it is though. Don't take any action against them until I say. Anyone sailing to Tortuga is more than likely on our side anyway.
*Lays back, out of breath* Someone get me a mug o' rum please.

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr awakes from a reverie and rises*

"I'll better go with him and make sure it's not the Pride of Cosenza ye mistake for a ghost ship."

*Bess continues to burn up.* I feel hot, cap'n... *passes out.*

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr comes back, a bit downcast.*

"Whatever that thing is out there, it is not my ship."

*Kneels down and feels Bess' pulse and temperature at her throat.*

"That doesn't look good, the pulse too fast and the temperature too high. What's the matter with her? Surely, she didn't look ill when we met a few hours ago.

Do you have chinin and ginger among your supplies? Together with the willow-bark I have in my bag of herbs, it might bring down the fever."

[Lady Melanie]

*a raft (half sinking)suddenly pulls up beside the ship*
*LM is on it looking like she has been shipwrecked*
Water, i need water...

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

pulls her off raft anfd gives her water "what happened to you?"

Oi!! That be MY ship ye be talkin' about!! That be the Defiant!! Mind, it would be good te have an extra set o' sails.... we be turnin' into a right ol' fleet!

Ye left us behind! We've been sailin fer three days te catch up wi' ye!

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

Need... more... rum... *puts arms up and walks towards her boat*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

don't be silly mum, thats not the defiant, thats the blue diamond.

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

*hops onto boat and starts guzzling rum* aye? who mentioned me boat?

[Elfdaughter]

*ED holds her head.* That knock must've been 'arder than I thought. 'ang on. We be on the Defiant. That be the White shark. Did we find the Blue Diamond then?

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

who keeps on mentioning the Blue Diamond?

[Elfdaughter]

Your boat? Eh? That must 'ave been an 'ard knock!!

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

well it used to be me boat, but next hing I knew it was gone when I woke up, it's why I joined this crew it is. cos me boat had gone.

[Elfdaughter]

so we have four ships now? That is, if Pride of Cosenza turns up.

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

What? ye mean me ship is here???

[Elfdaughter]

No, but if it turns up we'd have four. What ship be ye on now?

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

Oh, only me small one, it's practicly a dingy

[Elfdaughter]

Well, come aboard the Defiant!!

[Diamond of Long Cleeve]

I dunno... is there any rum??

[Elfdaughter]

Aye, plenty! We have our own hops, an we make our own.

[Eomund]

*awakes goes out to the deck. sees Vane and ED!*

Aye, how ya goin'?

[Feebeefi]

*rushes to IBK and the stranger*

You seem to know a lot about medicine mate. I bet ye could do a much better job!

*gets some water*

IBK? IBK can ye hear me??

Cap'an ye will feel like that for a but but I promise ye will get better;)

[Eomund]

*steps in that room*

W'ats append to da cap'n?

[Wilwarin]

Nothin's happened to me Eomund. An' what are ye doin' out of the stocks? Who let you out?
I thought I heard Mel's voice out there. Someone tell her to come in here. I've been missin' me second mate.

[Feebeefi]

She be outside havin some water Cap'an. And having a lie-down. She was found on a raft

[Eomund]

I dont know, locks were open and i just came out and besides it is already a day!!!!!!!

[Wilwarin]

Yeah, well. I hope you learned yer lesson anyway. Otherwise, next time it will be more than the stocks you'll be gettin'

*Looks at DPK* How did Mel get on a raft? Was she left behind at Isla de Muerta? I was wonderin' where she went.

What's the situation with that ship? Have ye figured out who it is. Not that it matters any. This is a port after all. There's bound to be some ships comin' and goin'.

[Eomund]

T'nks cap'n! w'at shall i do now???

[Feebeefi]

What ship Cap'an? The Shark is now in good shape

I think we left her behind but she's know back and I;m takin good care of her. Right now she be sleepin....*goes and checks*

I'm just waiting for you to tell us whre to go next and then we can leave.

[Eomund]

I would need to know it also, cap'n????

[Wilwarin]

Wow. Ye got a new mast already? That was fast.
Eomund. Go out on deck and see what needs done. Maybe DPK here can find ye some work t' do.

I meant the ship that Bess saw comin' in to port. It' probably just another pirate ship. We need pay it no mind.

Has anyone gone down and checked on Captain Ironmann in a while? I still mean to maroon him on a tiny spit of land.

[Eomund]

Okay

*leaves room and soon leaves computer*

Nothing, nothin', nothin'... nothin' everywhere everything dsone = me rest!!!!!!

[Wilwarin]

Where's that mug o' rum I ordered? I never got it. I'm very thirsty here. Haven't had a proper drink since before Isla de Muerta!

[Feebeefi]

Eomund!
Quit slacking off!

Go and check Ironman so we can marron him on an island mwahaha:flamer:

Hopefully ye will feel better by then Cap'an *fetches rum*
Here ye go

[Wilwarin]

Yeah, hopefully. I plan to stand on deck and watch him swim fer his life.
Uh, now about that rum.....

[Wilwarin]

*Takes rum from DPK* Ah yes, thank ye. *Take a large gulp, then wipes her mouth* That's good.
I'm goin' t' take a little nap now. Wake me when ye find out how Ironmann is doin'.

(((Sorry about the double post, edit isn't working for me right now. Grrrr)))

[Feebeefi]

*goes and checks Ironman*

He's asleep but alive and well so I think we should maroon him soon

[Eomund]

If he is asleep, then he can't probably swim!!! And are here even sharks!!! And i'm not out for Ironicman.

[Lady Melanie]

*gladly accepts water from Legolas*
I think that I drank too much rum and fell overboard. The last thing I remember is waking up on a deserted island. I used some palm trees and hair from my back to construct a raft which I sailed here but it got a bit banged up on the way *points at sinking raft*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

who's Legolas? I be Will sone of ED. pleased to meet ya!

[Wilwarin]

*Wil wakes up from her nap, feeling fully rested. She carefully sits up on the edge of her bed, holding a hand to her spinning head. She checks her bandages and sees that the bleeding has stopped*

Oy, now I know way knights wear armor! *Looks around and sees that no one is in the room with her*
Hey! Anyone around? Helloooo!!!

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan enters the room with the black and white cat roaming around her feet. She sees the Cap'n Wil sitting on the bed looking dizzy
Captain! don't you try standing yet she says softly as the cat spies the monkey and starts regarding it with curiosity Now Simbad be nice! she warns Captain meet Simbad our new crew member and residant mouser. How are you feeling now?

[Wilwarin]

Hey there Mad Morgan. I'm feeling ok I guess, still pretty weak. I'm tired of lying around though. I wonder if you could help me up to the poopdeck so I can sit outside fer a while and see what's goin' on.

*Looks at the cat who is still eyeing Captain Jack* He's a nice-lookin' cat to be sure. Uh, but keep 'im away from Captain Jack. Not that I'm afraid fer Jack, actually I be afraid fer the cat! lol

[Nessa the Dancer]

If yer sure.

helps the captain to stand up slowly now
glances at the monkey and cat once they get to know each other they'll be fine, Simbad is more curious than anything else as long as Captain Jack makes sure Simbad know's who's boss they get along fine I'm sure.

Helps captain Wil slowly through the ship and up to the poopdeck

[Wilwarin]

Thank ye Mad Morgan, jist set me on that crate there *Mad Morgan helps Wil to the crate. Wil looks around and takes a deep breath of the fresh salt air, then she coughs a little bit* Better not do that again fer a while, hehe.
So is Captain Ironmann still alive? If so, then I say it's high time we set sail fer a spit of land we can maroon him on. All hands on deck! Get them sails down, weigh anchor. Oh yeah, make sure everyone is onboard first. Call everyone back from the pubs.
*Captain Jack runs up and sits on Wil's shoulder. Wil scratches her monkey under the chin* It's great to be back, Captain Jack. (Hmm, that rhymed.)

[Feebeefi]

*wakes up to see the captain has gone.DPK runs on deck*
There ye be Cap'an!!

Ye look a lot better now.Soon ye will be up and fightin again!

[Lady Melanie]

*wonders where she got the name Legolas from*
Sorry about that Will! The dehydration confused me.

[Feebeefi]

*goes to LM*

Ye be alright? *gets more water* Don worry. He had another name before Wil so it gets confusing at times

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

your what sorry?

[Feebeefi]

Didn't they teach ye anything on the mainland Will?

She had no water for days so she went a bit funny but she be ok now

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

ah I see, well you were lying in the sea you could have just opened your mouth.

[Feebeefi]

Honestly lad!! You're the son of an intelliegent pirate!! The sea is full of salt!! Ye can't drink salt water mate!!

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

intelligent pirate? you must be talking about me Dad, whoever he is!!!!!!!!

[Wilwarin]

Alright, enough chatter! Carry out me orders mateys! We're leavin' this here port. So, seein' as how everyone is back on the ship, let's weigh anchor and set sail. Move smartly me lads, the wind and the tides are just right fer sailin'. Signal the Defiant that we're leavin'.

[Shieldmaiden]

*signals the Defiant* Whoo hoo! We're going to...uh...I missed something, Cap'n...where are we going?

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess wakes up, feeling a bit better. She still is a bit light-headed, but is otherwise fine.* Cap'n? Wha' happened ter me? Where we be? *gets a headache and sits down.* That be the las' time I kiss the undead....

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr comes on deck and sees Captain Wil.*

"Ye shouldna been up here as ye well ken. But I won't argue, I never stay abed mysel'."

*Beholds a ship approaching, very well manoeuvred. All linen comes down in one move, and the anchor falls a few metres in front of the main quai. It is the Pride of Cosenza.*

"Sverrir, ye auld rascal. What in ta name of Hél and all Valkyrjas took ye so long?"

A man appears at the railing. "Sorry fer that, Captn. There was this there ship a-chasin' us. A verra strange ship 'twas."

"Whaddya mean by strange?"

"Weel, there was no sound when we passed her close, and there we no men to be seen save one rugged fellow at the tiller. Eerie, I tell ye. She's sailing too fast, too."

"Be this what it is. I'll come over to you at once. We'll join this group here" - *points at the Defiant* - "We'll sail to" - *looks at Captain Wil* - "Where in ta name of ta klaubauterman are we goin'?"

[Eomund]

We should now decede where are we goin'? W'at is it cap'n?

*cap sees something on the sea*

[Lady Melanie]

*shakes her head at Will and wonders if the salty air is making him confused*
One person sailing a pirate ship, I have neva herd of such a thang. Yer need at least 10.

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

well people can do some pretty amazing things in a desperate situation!!

[Feebeefi]

*turns to Captain*

Cap'an where exactly are we goin?

*goes to LM*

Ye be ok lass??

[Wilwarin]

Alright, everyone only need ask once! I've told ye already, we're tryin' t' find a tiny spit of land to maroon Captain Ironmann on. After that, I don't know, what ever we want I guess.

Agantyr, are ye goin' t' sail with us? Ye can join yer ship t' my fleet. Like I said before, we could always use an extra rudder and a lot of sails in tight fix, and yer ship looks mighty fine if ye don't mind me sayin'. What say you?

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess stands up and looks around.*

(Um, are still in port? I was gonna have Bess commandeer a ship if we are, but I'll wait...)

[Wilwarin]

((We are just leaving port actually. What would you need to commandeer a ship for? We don't have enough people to crew them all as it is!))

[Feebeefi]

A tiny spit of land!! I can help ye there Cap'an! I habe been marooned before! *gives Wil the co-ordinates* It'll be perfect!! I was rescued by a fisherman who wa slost! No-one ever goes there.
What do ye think Cap'an?

[Wilwarin]

sounds like a plan then. Alright mateys, set sail.

*Wil pulls out a cloth checker board and some wood checker pieces out of her pocket. She spreads them out on the top of a barrel*

DPK, would you like to play a round with me?

*Notices a corner of the forward sail flapping loose* Hey, someone tie that down!

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

goes and ties it down.

[Feebeefi]

Sure Cap'an!

*sits on chair oppostie*

[Eomund]

And what should i do??? Can i watch cap????

[Feebeefi]

You could help Will with that sail that he doesn't seem to be dong much about *yells* Will! Sort it out! It's not tied properly!

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

ah shut up!!

*fixes it*

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan after seeing that Captain Wil is in good hands makes her excuses and heads back down to the gally got get on with jobs down there Simbad after casting a backward glance at Captain Jack follows her down as well

[Talorcen]

*Agantyr has meanwhile entered the Pride of Cosenza. He waves to Captain Wil.*

"Lead us, then. I'll join ye - wherever ye go."


*To himself*

This may prove to be some fun.

[Eomund]

Okay,

*walks to the sail*

Will, cant you do never a decent work....

*starts doing it rightly*

[Wilwarin]

That's grand Agantyr. We're glad t' have ye with us.

*Wil begins setting the pieces on the board* DPK, ye want to be red or black?

[Feebeefi]

Black please Cap'an:grin:

[Wilwarin]

Alright. *Wil turns the board around so all the black pieces are on DPK's side*

Does black or red go first? I can't remember. Either way, ye can go first if ye like.

*Looks over at Will and Eomund who are just standing around doing nothing* Hey you two, there's plenty of work t' do around here. The deck needs swabin', those ropes over there *points* need coilin' up. And I noticed a big chunk missing from the railin' on the port side. That needs fixin'. There's enough to keep ye busy until we get to the island.

[Feebeefi]

*see's them ignoring Wil*

Get on with it now or it'll be you two we maroon on the island!

*the lads work*

Thanks Cap'an!

*moves first piece*

[Wilwarin]

*Wil moves also*

So, DPK, how long 'ave ye been a pirate? I don't think I've ever heard yer story, have I?

[Feebeefi]

I have told a little bit but I will tell all of it.

*moves piece*

I was born in England. Sailed ot Port Royal.Went on a boat when I was 15 and my mates marooned me on the island we are sailing to now.I came back.I was nade to go on a ship to England because of pirates though I met Jack Sparrow secretly and we are friends and I got on the wrong ship.This ship as I knew it was a pirate ship and I always wanted to be one and I came up and met you all.Jack said if I ever went on a pirate ship I was to call myself Dread Pirate Kidd so I did or DPK for short. Now I'm a pirate in you wonderul ship Cap'an

[Wilwarin]

*Wil moves her piece*

Wow, ye know Jack Sparrow. That's neat, I know 'im too, since I was a young un. Have ye head my story?

[Feebeefi]

No I haven't. Please tell Cap'an

*moves piece*

[Wilwarin]

Well, I'll try to give ye the short version, since I've already told the long version once.

*Clears throat*

I was born on that ship there *points to the Defiant* 'cours back then it was called "Avenger" and captained by Drake Ironmann, yes, there very Drake Ironmann who sits in our brig. Anyway, he was very mean to me,and when my parents died he decided to get rid of me as well. At that time Jack was a member of Ironmann's crew and he and I became good friends. It was Jack who taught me everything I know about sailin' and fightin'. Anyway, Captain Ironmann was goin' t' make me walk the plank for a bit of sport. Jack stood up fer me though, so Captain Ironmann made him walk the plank also. If it weren't fer Jack I would have drowned because I didn't know how to swim. Jack saw I was taken care of fer a whole year. He paid for my room and board at an inn that whole time. Then one day he came back and brought me to a pirate captain named Marry Robers. I became part of her crew, and when I was old enough, and saved up enough money, I eventually left Captain Robers and bought me own ship. And here I am today.

*Looks at the board for a bit then makes her move, jumping one of DPK's pieces*

Yer turn. :grin:

[Telumehtar]

*Walks up from below, massaging her head where one of the Pearl's men hit her with his pistol*

What 'appened to the Pearl, Cap'n? I must've blacked out from that scurvy's pistol...

Sad story there, Wil...glad Jack took care o' ye or else we'd still be lookin fer a good ship to man.
~Telu :flamer:

[Eomund]

Yes, sad story there Wil.Jack was and is a good man!

[Wilwarin]

Ah well, it wasn't all sad. It had a happy endin' after all. Or, at least happy up 'til now, seein' how it's not the end yet. :grin:

Kate, we sunk the Pearl, and Barbosa is dead. Now we're sailin' to a spit of land where we can maroon Captain Ironmann. Ye do remember him, don't ye?
Speakin' of which, does anyone remember that little stowaway we had onboard a while back? Kate, I'm sure you remember him, the mute? Ye didn't put Ironmann in the same cell with him did ye? He don't have the nick name "Cannible Drake" fer naught. I fear fer that little guy. I wonder if he's still down there. Kate, you wouldn't mind checkin' on 'im would yah?

*Looks back at the board and sees that DPK has made another move while Wil was talking. Wil ponders for a moment, then makes her own move, jumping two of DPK's pieces* Hey mate, ye better start catchin' up with me, I'm almost to my first king.

*Looks over at Eomund and Will. They are still standing around doing nothing* Hey! What did I tell you guys? Get to work! This ain't no pleasure cruise! Get to doin' the stuff I mentioned already.

[Eomund]

Why is that ye who does all the commanding???? We would like few promotions.

*starts workin'*

Will, this is unfare, DPK does'nt have to do anything!!!! Much things still to do. Hey look at there. There is a boat and three people in it!!!

*points out to the sea*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

Thats nice

*gets back to work*

[Feebeefi]

*glares at Eomund*

I have done plenty while ye and Will have been standing around!! I am now having a game wirth the Cap'an if ye don mind!

*moves and makes first King*

Yer turn:grin:

[Nibinaraniel]

*Bess looks at the three that Eomund pointed at. She pulls out her spyglass and focus' in on them. * Cap! There be men in tha' boat! Shoul' we pull 'em in? *looks out again.* Wait! I know one o' 'em! Tha' be me ol' master! *realizes what she said and shuts her mouth. She puts away the spyglass and grabs a bucket and mop to swab the deck with, seeing that no one else did.*

[Wilwarin]

*Wil stares at the checker board for a moment* How'd ye do that? Ye were behind! That was mighty sneaky of ye. *Wil moves her piece and also makes a king*

*Looks over her shoulder at Eomund* What's this complainin' I hear? Why am I the one givin' orders? Because, I be the captain of this ship, have been fer nigh on five years. My word here is law. Besides, we don't want this ship to fall appart around us do we?

*Looks over at Bess who is swabin' the deck* And what's all this comotion about? Who are they? Wht do they want? Don't be lettin' no one come up here without first findin' out these things. Ye said ye know one of them? Speak up lass.

[Nibinaraniel]

Well, he be me ol' master. I was his servant fer five years. I did tha' so I coul' pay fer this here cutlass. Ye see, I nipped it one daywhile he was out, bu' he caught me. Instead o' putting me ter death, he ha' me work fer 'im 'til the cost was paid for. He let me keep it as a reminder tha' I shoul' ne'er steal agin. Well, so much fer tha'! *laughs quietly.* As fer the others, they be new faces... Bu' me ol' master, he be the one ter teach me ter figh' an' sail. He be a good man, cap'n! *takes out her cutlass and turns it over in her hands.* Five years o' servitude fer this ol' bloody thing! *puts it away again.* Trainin' don' do naught fer me... I only work under other's command fer the love o' the sea...... No 'fence ter ye, cap, o'course. I love sailin' the seas wit ye! *smiles widely, and goes back to work.* JACK! *Her monkey comes to her* Mate, ye go an' fetch ol' Bess tha' bucket an' fill it wit water, ye hear? *Jack goes off and does as told. Bess sighs as she thinks.* I miss tha' dear ol' Sterlin'! Twas a fine penguin..... *Jack returns with fresher water.* Why thank ye, Jack. Here, have a monkey treat! *tosses him one and he crawls up onto her shoulders to eat it. The bond between the two is obviously strong.*

[Wilwarin]

Wow, yer full o' surprises mate. First yer a former cursed crew member of Barbosa's, then yer a former slave t' some unknown fer five years. How d' ye have time fer it all! But still, why is he here? Can ye ask 'im that? Though he sounds honast, he ain't comin' aboard until we find out.

By the way, what happened to Sterling. Don't ye have him anymore? I thought he was sittin' on the piece of ice ye keep in the bilges.

[Nibinaraniel]

*thinks* oh, so that be where he be! *smiles at Jack.* Will ye go an' git ol' Sterlin' from below? *the monkey nods before jumping onto the deck and running below. She yells to the boat* OY! JAMES GABLE? WHAT BRINGS YE HERE?

James: WHO YE BE?

Bess: IT BE BESS KIDD! I THOUGHT YE BE DEAD!

James: WELL, YE SEE, ME AN THESE HERE GENTS BE HEADED TER TOTUGA WHEN A BLOODY BRITISH SHIP BLEW US UP. THESE BE THE LAST O' ME CREW. THE REST BE DEAD!

*Bess turns to Wil.* Ye satisfied? *notices Sterling waddling in.* Sterlin'! I thought ye lef' mate! *picks him up and he pecks her cheek affectionately. Polly the parrot flies down to land on Wil's shoulder.* Polly, this be Sterlin'. Ye both be birds.
Polly: Goo' Day! Goo' Day! I be Polly! Polly, Polly, Polly! Pretty Polly! Awk! *nibbles Wil's ear gently and flies down to the deck where Bess placed Sterling down. The two make random noises according to their species, but seem to understand each other. Sterling wobbles to Bess and watches her. Bess picks up Sterling and Polly flies to her shoulder, while Jack climbs onto the other side.*
Bess: Well, looks like I be Noah.....

Polly: Wind in the sails! Wind in the sails! What say ye ter wind in the sails?

Bess: Yer talking nonsense bird...
*Sterling nips at Bess' pocket until he finds a piece of bread. He nibbles on it before waddling off to his bit o' ice.*
Farewell me Sterlin'! See ye soon 'nough.... Cap? Shall we be takin' them aboard?

[Elfdaughter]

*ED brings the Definat round to settle next to the White Shark.*

What be yer orders, Wil? Shall we bring 'em in, or de ye wan' te de that?

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Moragan comes up from the galley a bucket of dirty water in hand ready to throw overboard Simbad at her feet

'Ere what be all the raukus and shoutin about?

Sees the other boat near the White Shark Ahhhh that might explain it! Throws the dirty water overboard and draws up more water

[Eomund]

Yes, we shout, we kill, we do anything, MM you ar lucky. Will, get to work. Cap we want some becation as pirate head splitting.

*starts doin all the works...* lol

[Feebeefi]

Er No!! i don't take orders from anyone but he captain or somone that the captain has put in charge, no one else and especially not you!.

[Feebeefi]

*DPK stands up and goes to Will*

The Cap'an is still unwell from the caves therefore until she says otherwise I am still in charge on the White Shark so Do some work or walk the plank!

Ye choice matey

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

I wasn't talking to you!!!

[Feebeefi]

Well you are now so will you work or will ye have to walk thee plank?

[Wilwarin]

Aww quit yer arguin', I already gave ye orders, Will. That rail on the port side needs fixin', it was blown away in the last battle. And ye will listen to DPK, as I did put her in charge while I be under the wether.

*Turns to Bess* I guess they can come aboard, but so long as they know we just sailed FROM Tortuga and we ain't goin' back fer a while. So they may want to keep on rowin' there in their own boat, seein' as how we ain't that far away yet.

*Returns her attention to the checker board* DPK, was it yer turn, or mine?

[Nessa the Dancer]

Mad Morgan shakes her head
It's all to complicated fer me.
Heads back down to the galley. but calls over her shoulder Oh by the way it be your turn Captain ;)
Simbad rolls over on his back on the deck with all four paws in the air enjoying the sun

[Lady Melanie]

*appears out from her cabin*
Argghh! Whats going on yer sea lubbers?
*observes DPK trying to make Will walk the plank*
Hav yer been stealing DPK's rum again, Will?

[Wilwarin]

Huh? Yer seein' things Mel, DPK's playin' checkers with me! lol

*Wil moves her piece, jumping three of DPK's pieces in a row*

By the way Mel, how are ye feelin'? Haven't seen much of ye lately.

[Lady Melanie]

I was down and out there for a while captain with a bad case of scurvey but I am feeling fine now!
Its good to smell the sea air again!

[Wilwarin]

Aye it is. I'm still pretty bad off and should be in bed. But I couldn't stand not bein' out here smellin' the sea and feelin' the wind on me face.

DPK, it's yer turn mate.

Aye, Cap, I remember Ironman. Do we have a particuar island to make 'im governor of, or is it the next one we reach?

An' I 'ave no idea which cell the little mute be in...I'll go check on 'im.

*wonders if the stowaway was actually mute, muttering to herself as she goes to check on him*

Brave little guy, I'll give 'im that...no one else's ever refused to talk t' me after they've seen my blades.
~Telu :flamer:

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

OOC: I'm confused!! whats happening, will was arguing with Eomund no one else.

[Wilwarin]

OOC: Did anyone say he was arguing with anyone else? You should quit arguing anyway. It would be a whole lot better all around.

*DPK finishes her turn, then Wil moves* Haha! King me again mate.

So Bess, are those sea dogs comin' up here or not?

[Lady Melanie]

*grabs herself some rum and sits down ter watch the chess game*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

yeah the defiant the crew are nicer there. *Runs to the defiant*

[Lady Melanie]

*LM wonders how Will is going to run on water*
Beats me!
*Goes back to drinking rum*

[Legolas of Mirkwood]

*Wil makes another move* This is the most even game of checkers I've ever played DPK. Either we're both really good, or we both have no idea what we're doin'! lol

*Wil looks up at the rest of her crew, who are all just standin' around* Alright mateys, go ahead and take a break, do what ever ye want. It will be a while still 'for we get to the island. Might as well have a bit of rest 'for we get there.

[Lady Melanie]

Be prepared to be beaten though!

[Telumehtar]

*pulls up a chair to watch Vane and Mel play*

[Wilwarin]

Oh, Kate. So how's that stowaway? Is he still in one piece?

[Feebeefi]

[Lady Melanie]

*sets up checkers board*
I'll be red!
R yer ready to start Vane?

[Wilwarin]

DPK, we ARE outside, remember?
But anyway, so we're here eh? Well good. Take us to within swimin' distance and drop anchor. Don't bring Ironmann up until we're ready though.

*Wil makes one of her kings jump one of DPK's kings while she wasn't looking*

Oh and, DPK, it's your turn.

[Feebeefi]

Ok Cap'an

*looks at borad puzzled* You cheated!

*makes a move*

[Wilwarin]

Cheated! Whadaya mean 'cheated'? You can't cheat in checkers! lol

*Moves again*

[Feebeefi]

*makes another move and makes another king*

I don't think we're playing this rightlol

[Wilwarin]

No, me neither. How do you win at this game anyway? lol

[Feebeefi]

errrrrrrrrlol

Lets say it was a drawlol

That island is getting closer. And I hate the sight of it

*goes inside*

[Wilwarin]

A draw eh? If ye say so. *Wil picks up the checker pieces and folds the cloth board back up and puts them in her pocket. Then she leans over the rail she is sitting next to and sees the island getting closer*

Kind of a dreary-lookin' place. Alright, this be close enough. Lower the anchor mateys!
