Who We Are

[John Wildcutter]

Prologue

It was midnight. The last of the cargo was loaded onto the ships as they prepared to set sail. It was raining lightly, and it was new moon. It was as if the earth were saying "STOP!"

"May god go with you." a man shouted from the docks. At that same moment, the ships cut the ropes and began sailing out of the harbor. Cannons made from thick iron, loaded with explosives enough to send a ship to the locker in a minute. Loathsome towards enemies, a man at the meeting had said.

He was after the unfindable. And so was another person, if I should call him a person.

Private Area of Port Royal, The Next Evening

"They have departed." a man in a very fancy suit said, walking into a mansion.

"Very good, Mr. Mercer. We are going to find the unfindable." a man stood up from his chair and walked into the moonlight. It was Lord Cutler Beckettt.

Mr. Mercer bowed and left the mansion.

"These lands are the Company's!" Lord Beckett said, throwing three gold coins down onto the table before turning his chair around and letting the night go back into utter silence.

PART 1




Chapter 1: Invasion of Padres

It was a happy day on Padres. Townsfolk strolled around town, and the Navy Soldiers at Fort Dundee trained. Then the mist started to get thicker, the clouds turned green, lightning struck, and the green fog became so thick you could barely see through it.

Several ships docked at the beach and people came up from the beach, shouting and crying. "Jolly Roger is coming!!!!" they shouted out to the city. At once the townsfolk started panicking and grabbing whatever they could to provide some defence. Rum bottles, wood planks, and water kegs were put together to form several small barricades scatetred around town.

Nearby pirate ships heard the news quickly and started docking at Padres. Navy Soldiers came down from the fort, so desperate that they offered pirates gold in return for defense of Padres. Most of the pirates agreed and began stationing themselves along the beach with the Navy Soldiers.

John Wildcutter, a pirate who's home was in Padres, came down to the beach and was immediately offered a deal by a Navy Guard.

"50 gold!" John spat at the Guard.

"40." the Guard replied, acting softer.

"Deal." he said loudly, shaking the guards hand.

John and the guard positioned themselves on the beach near the Magma Ridge and in front of one of the tallest barricades. Time seemed to have stopped. The Navy guard was sweating so much that John thought that he was drenched in seawater.

Then, it happened. A ship came into the harbor, lightning bolts striking the sea next to it. "CRUSH PADRES AND BRING ME THEIR BONES!!! HAHAHAHAH!!!" a voice yelled from the ship, and six lightning bolts struck near the ship.

John could see them. Several skeletons swimming towards the shore. Several Undead Pirates and a few Undead Witchdoctors came up from the beach and instantly tried to attack the barricade.

"Watch and learn, mate." John bumped the Guard, then throwing a Grenade at the skeletons, knocking their skeletons apart, sending their bodies back to the dead.

Several Undead Pirates ran up to John and tried to knock him down. But John was a CUTLASS MASTER! He turned around and whipped the skeletons' skulls off. John looked up to see an Undead Witchdoctor pulling out his voodoo doll. Out of nowhere, several insects, mostly bees and mosquitoes came and started surrounding the Guard in a pack. The Navy Guard fell to the ground in agony, dropping his bayonet.

"NOO!!" John yelled, and threw a grenade at the Witchdoctor.

The Navy Guard was dead. John ran down to the beach to see at least 50 Undead Brutes and Pirates rush out of the ocean to the barricade. There are too many of them, John thought, before running up the hill past the barricade. Several Navy Veterans were shotting their bayonets at the skeletons charging up the hill. The barricade exploded in a green mist. The barricade had been destroyed. The skeletons rushed up the hill and starting fighting furiously with the Veterans.

Several Pirates threw grenades and soon wiped out the 50 skeletons, and the whole city went quiet. Swords clashing stopped, pistols and guns stopped firing, and grenades stopped exploding.

"DO I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING MESELF!!!!!?!?!?!!? FOOLS!!!!!" a voice yelled, coming from the ship. Jolly Roger.

Jolly Roger soon arrived at the beach, using his voodoo powers to send pirates and Navy soldiers alike flying in all directions. John pulled out his best broadsword and charged at the beast. Jolly roger pulled out his huge cutlass and began swordfighting with John. John was a great swordsman, but the strength and size of Jolly Roger overwhelmed John. John dropped his broadsword and ran up the hill, away from Jolly Roger. A skeleton ran up to Jolly Roger and whispered something in the hole that was supposed to be his ear that startled him.

"YE FOOLS COULDNT FIND THE WEAPONS???? FALL BACK TO THE SHIP, YE MONGRELS!" Jolly Roger said, then disappeared in the blink of the eye.

"Something bad is going to happen. I feel it in my bones." John said, standing up to see the sky turning blue again and every feature caused by Jolly Roger transformed into a normal day again.
