Sorry for double post, but just finished the belated chapter. xD This is the old one, new one's i the OP.
Chapter 2
Playing with explosives
After lugging all four crates of beer to the bar, Roger and Stealth were exhausted.
“*huff* So, *huff* why do we *huff* always *huff* bring the *huff* beer here? *huff*” Stealthy asked. Roger caught his breath, then replied:
“Because if we didn’t there would be no more beer left after you get there.” Roger said rolling his eyes.
“Oh yeah.” Stealthy said with a lack of bashfulness. Then he looked shocked and horrified. He turned to Roger and asked:
“Hey, am I drunk or-”
“Drunk.” Roger said, not really paying attention. Stealthy narrowed his eyes at Roger, and turned his head to the sea.
“Look there and tell me you don’t see Jolly Roger’s ship.”
“I don’t see Jolly Roger’s ship.”
“Uh.... maybe I AM drunk.”
“No, I see it, I was just following orders.” Roger got a punch for that one.
“But, why is he here?” Roger asked, paying full attention now. If this an invasion they were toast, only them and one other person was there.
“Yeah, ask the beer addict something a regular person can’t figure out, that makes sense.” Stealthy said sarcastically. I almost prefer you crazy over beer then this. Roger thought to himself. Then, the drawbridge of the ship lowered, and out walked Jolly himself. OK, this is definitely not an invasion. What the heck is going on? Jolly stepped off, and narrowed his eyes at Roger, and started walking toward the bar.
“Come on! We shall protect the beer at all costs!” Stealth said, dragging Roger toward Jolly. Not very stealthy, are you?
“Move pirates, I’ll collect your souls soon enough.” Jolly commanded.
“You. No hurt beer. Leave now.”
“Mates, I’ll be destroying that bar wether you get in my way or not.” Jolly replied as he waved his hand.
“No!” Too late, the bar exploded behind them.
“Wow, dude, I like explosions too, but thats a little overboard!” The random pirate said.
“All that beer....... gone.” Stealthy said. “YOU MONSTER!!!!!” How is he mad about the beer but NOT about the people? Stealthy took out his blunderbuss, the random pirate held a Firebomb in each hand, and Roger drew Thunderspine.
“I did not come to treat with worms” Jolly said. Winds wrapped around him, and he was gone, his ship with him. Roger started to head for his own boat, when out of the ground came a pirate, someone Roger had never seen before.
“Who are you?” Roger asked.
“That.... is none of your concern.” The pirate replied with an evil grin. Roger decided it was best to be cautious, and pointed Thunderspine at the pirate.
“Aw what a pity, and here I thought we could be friends” The pirate sighed. Roger didn’t respond, didn’t even blink.
“Alright then, don’t say I didn’t warn you.” The pirate drew a blood red sword, and launched himself at Roger.
