Pirates of the Caribbean RPG

[Anaclagon]

The Commondore looked through the streets, some rested on the rooftops but groups of men oftne marched around through the streets, muskets by their sides as they looked around. Every one in a while, a rider delivering messages would be seen but as for now at this time of day. Most people were sleeping and resting. The government office which was also heavily guarded was also dark..

Laterns lit the streets and docks and secret snipers in the buildings used in case there was a similar event. Still the Admiral's brother..the commondore was followed by a large group of English soldiers..at the moment he was in charge of the men while the admiral himself was back at his ship..ready to sail in the morning.

Darren was having trouble sleeping. He tossed and turned in his cot, groaning and flailing his arms around, like he was trying to attack something. "Get away...miiiiiine," he mumbled in his sleep and punched at the air again. Suddenly, he heard a bang on his ship and woke from his sleep. He stretched and shook his head, trying to rid himself of all sleepiness before getting out of his bed and dressing himself up. When he looked presentable as a captain, he walked out of his quarters and on to the deck, where the men were already at work. He smiled proudly and continued his watch over his busy, whistling crew.

Cosimo looked at the houses and the rooftops, some of these men couldn't hear Storm. They had never thought about what's waiting inside Port Royal. "Alright, she gives the signal," he said to the men behind him. He listened for her song to begin and he was crossing his fingers that it was soon...

Captain Storm, silenced again, decided they had to have made it into the town by now, so she took another deep breath:

Shiver my timbers, shiver my soul.
Yo, ho. Heave ho, there are men whose hearts,
are as black as coal, yo, ho, heave, ho!

"NOW!" Cosimo shouted...

[Anaclagon]

A odd sound echoed through the quiet night..something that did not sound out of the ordinary. The commondore himself was there to hear it as he paused. He reached for his sword as he looked at the men behind him who paused. That sound...did not sound right at all.

"You two search for any groups of men, secure the docks and the streets, even if my mind is playing tricks on me, false alarm or not..I dont care..I want my orders followed" The Commondore commanded as two soldiers and then started to run off.

John who finally got himself too bed was unaware of what was going on but on the deck, several men also heard the sound.. and none of them liked it.

[Shade]

The pirates burst out from their hiding places and gunshots rang throughout the town. Cosimo drew his sword, then looked at the engraving that was close to the hilt. Hades it read and 13 members had swords almost like it.

And they sailed their ship, cross the ocean blue.
A bloodthirsty captain and a cut-throat crew.
It's as dark a tale, as was ever told,
of the lust for treasure and the love of gold!

Storm kept singing though she heard the shots in the distance. But while she was she looked at her sword, there was an engraving close to the hilt that read; Posiedon, 13 members had swords almost like this.

[Anaclagon]

John woke up as the gunshots rang out. He looked around in a paniced but quickly regained his composure, grabbing his pistol and his sword as he ran right out of his cabin into the dock of the Guardian as he looked towards the town as he saw the bright flashes as the shots rang out.

"Send word to the other ships..form a peremiter around the island.." John ordered, several men nodding as they ran off the ship, intended on spreading the word. It seemed there was no large ship that just passed through but a boarding party but the Admiral was not about to lose the fort to some unorganized group who thought they can simply come in without a fight..

As the shots rang out, the barracks and the main military stations were informed and as proof, the sounds of gunshots echoed through the night. Soldiers on the rooftops now fully awake looked down to see the pirates, the English Red coats firing their muskets with deadly accuracy as they fired down upon the pirate crew..

soldiers through the streets were preparing to engage the enemy up close as they marched in their signature line formation as they prepared to deal with this unexpected event..

[Shade]

Suddenly a boisterous laugh echoed through the bay. "It is futile, you will be lost to the might of MoonDust!!" Storm called and laughed. Her laugh was always cold and cruel, it would send most men running to hide under rocks and never come out. And when it echoed like it did, it gave it a sort of eerie, evil, unnatural sound to it.

Cosimo lept at a soldier and his sword sliced through his stomach. He heard his captain's laughter, he was sure she was enjoying her charade. "The MoonDust will triumph!" he yelled and sword swung to meet another Red Coat.

[Anaclagon]

Several groups of English Troopers appeared..the one before bent foward, aiming their guns as the second line aimed above them..

"Fire!" A troopers shouted as a barrage of bullets soared through the air, ripping through several pirates with ease, dropping them dead. The lines behind the first two moved ahead armed with muskets, picking off any survivors themselves as they spreaded out, more troopers were preparigng to move in to finish them off..

Lone pirates or small groups were picked up by sharp shooters on top of buildings and inside them..

[Shade]

Cosimo sliced through another Red Coat and turned back to his men, most were lying on the ground. "This is madness," he whispered. "Change in plan lads, take what loot you can and fallback!" he shouted over the uproar.

Storm lounged inside her longboat, contemplating of the riches this port had to offer. Gold coins? Silver candlesticks? Perhaps bronze medals.
A wicked smile spread across her face just thinking about how rich she would be...

[Doc 42]

Jason wasn't sailing towards the port any more. It was clear they were under attack. Instead, Nate's sloop was pointed towards the source of the ghostly song... He wanted to see who it was... out of curiosity. He didn't care if it killed the cat. He was even quicker and more agile than any cat.

[C S]

Nate rolled onto his back, the cold damp wood of his ship wasnt that good of a place to sleep on.He tried to get up, but he found out his ankles and wrists were bounded together, badly by the way, he would show the person tat tried to incapaciate him how to tie a knot worthy of holding a canon in the air when he woke up. Nate knawed at the rope bounding his wrists, with a grip on it he forced his arms outwards, the knot becomming undone. he then untied the rope binding his ankles. He got up, shaking his head. He walked to a crate, pulling out a pillow and a blanket. He turned around to see Jason sailing his ship. Staring at the boy, Nate finally said as if Jason was part of his crew "carry on" Nate dropped the pillow, laid down, pulled the blanket over him and went to sleep.

[Shade]

Shiver my timbers, shiver my sides.
Yo, ho, heave ho. There are hundreds as strong
as the winds and tides. Yo, ho, heave ho.
And those bucaneers drown their sins in rum.
The Devil himself would have to call them scum.
Every man aboard would've killed his mate, for a
bag of guines or a piece of eight!

Storm kept singing while the men started to run back to the MoonDust. She looked up and nearly cried out in outrage. She grabbed a flare and sent it up...

[Anaclagon]

The English Troopers spreaded out through the town, shooting using their numbers and training to take down the pirates. They must have came from the docks..somewhere.

English Galleons began to set sail, their crews awakened as the ships began to move out of the Port Royal Port, ready for combat as they prepared to surround the island.

As news quickly spreaded, only more English Troopers got ready..John prepared himself as the Guardian was getting ready to set sail and secure the port..they werent going to let those pirates escape..

[Shade]

Cosimo stopped in his tracks and looked at the flare that was sent up, by Storm no doubt. He sighed heavily, then his wheels started turning. Of course, two flares! he thought and grabbed a flare of his own and sent it up. Two flares in the sky meant, fire at will...

[Anaclagon]

The English Soldiers looked to the sky...the flares meant something..

John looked at the flares as he began to shout more orders. "Get the cannons ready!, move the Guardian and the rest of the ships out too see and prepare to engage enemy ships!" John ordered as he ran to the helm.

Soon the enormus massive First Rate Ship of the Line began to set out into sea, several other Galleons following the lead flagship as they armed the cannons. Any vessels in front of them were bound to be attacked. The Guardian's duel Triple Chase Cannons were exposed as all the guns were being prepared to fire as other Galleons behind the Ship of the Line armed themselves to prepare for combat.

As for the Troopers of the port, they began to search all possible hidden areas where enemies were hiding. They began to fire into corners or secret places to make sure that no pirate would survive. In other cases..it looked like more bodies were going to be added to those that were already displayed as warnings.

[Shade]

Storm smiled a devilish smile and whispered "fools". Then she took a deep breath. "FIRE!!!" she called and cannons shot and hit the Gaurdian on the stern! They were going to win no matter what. But unfortunately once the cannonballs left the ship they weren't invisible anymore so the ship had to keep moving!

[Anaclagon]

"Thats our clue, we see them.." John said out loud as his crews prepared.

"Let them taste the triple cannons.." John ordered. With that the triple chase cannons opened fire, quickly reloading and firing in rapid sucession as they fired foward, even if they could not quickly aim..their foe was right in front of them and they were bound to hit as the massive ship accelerated foward..

the rapidly firing cannons would have easily shereded the pirate vessel 's to piecess due to the sheer ammount of fire power this massive ship had. There still was other galleons, the Guardinan's escort also poised to strike as they began to move out of the flagships way and attack the pirates from the flanks..

[Shade]

Suddenly a huge seering pain erupted in Storm's side. She cried out and gripped it hard. "D***," she hissed. "Idiots, don't know how to run my ship!" She grabbed a pole and started back toward her ship...

Cosimo gripped the helm with all his might. He couldn't let this ship go down!

[Anaclagon]

"No prisoners...sink the vessel.." John ordered. No mercy this time...

The Guardians duel Triple Chase Cannons continued to rapidly fire, massive cannonballs ripping through the hull. The Guardian was not known for its speed but for its sheer size, power and dominance. John looked left and right to the galleons on each flank posied to accelerate ahead but they followed their orders..

This was going to be the Guardian's kill...

[Shade]

Pain ripped through every side of Storm's body as she tried to climb up to her ship. "IF THIS SHIP GOES DOWN, YOU'RE DEAD MEAT, COSIMO!!!" she screamed as she dragged herself onto the deck. "Give me the helm, get out the triple guns and the long nines!" she ordered. "Aye, aye captain," Cosimo said and repeated it to the crew. Storm raised her sword and struck it into the deck, the ship was now visible, a pure white dove on a black canvas.
