Thanks for reviews. Gonna post this chapter now! With a few more people...

Chapter 11
The Crew

Tortuga.... Tortuga. I was just at Tortuga for heaven's sake! I'm running around the Caribbean for no apparent reason! Time to stowaway again...

As I head over to the dockworker, and talk to the man I ask him if he could put me in the box, and head me to Tortuga. He said sure, but it'll cost ye. Few gold pieces will be good.

As I pat my pockets I hear no clinking.

I'm out of gold. I'm broke. I told the Dockworker " Err um, I'm outta gold, Could you transport me anyways....?"

The dockworker said:

Ye cheap landlubber! This business is hard work, if I don't get my due then you don't get your stowaway transportation. Now shoo before I whack you in the head with me hammer ye bilge rat!

He shoos me away while I have no way to get to Tortuga. I might as well run into the bar, and see what's going on in there, might find a crew...

I walk in with the door slamming quickly, and very loud. As I walk in the bar is hectic, I see a group of pirates, walking by the bar, I see a man in a beard, he had a dark hat, similiar to Barbossa's hat, the man I saw in the cave. He had jewelry on his left eyebrow, and on his nose as well. He had the impression of a skull tattoo on his face, and he wore a coat, by the looks of it, an expensive coat that they don't give to some of those lowlifes. He had boots, dark by the looks of it and dark pants as well. He had a green vest, and belt on, but the belt had no buckle. Others were gathering around him as well. IT looked like, he was the crew leader.

I walk over to him, and say,

"Hey you! Are you a crew leader?"

The mysterious man replies,

Ye be right ye scallywag, I am the crew leader. It seems ye be wanting to join, and we'd happily take you, of course my crew is more high stakes than others. We live by the code, and if you don't listen to me, yer journey may be cut short. I am Delmaria Darkskull, CAPTAIN Delmaria Darskull, owner of the Sea Dragon, but anybody in my crew refers to me as Captain Del. So, ye wanting to join?

I think about it for a moment, and then I say, "Yes"

HA, good. We be needing another helping hand around me ship. But be warned, me crew be more tough than you think, and they are more powerful than you might ever be. My crew is not an easy way to live, we take hardships and make compensations in order to become the most savviest pirates of the Caribbean. In other words, this ain't no crew for the faint of heart. And you'll be a prospect to us, until you prove us your worth. Now ain't no time to talk, time to tell you who is who in this crew.

I then ask, " Who's that short guy right there? He part of the crew?"

Don't ye be insulting Andrew, Andrew is a great swordsman, marksman and is very skillful in the art of voodoo. Ye best not try to infuriate the man, ye might be on the floor after that...

And the man next to him, the one with a mustache, curly mustache, and a nice looking pirate hat. He's William Goldwalker. He's skilled in almost everything. He knows how to hold a cutlass, to knowing how to fix a cannon. He ain't no easy boy here, we work him hard, and pay him better.

I say, " Who's the girl? Ain't that a curse to have a woman on board?"

She ain't no curse to us. THe girl is Potions Pirate. She is a master of potions. She's gotten us out of more situations than all of us together. She needs us, we need her. Done deal.

Then I ask another question to Captain Del, which looked like he was geting irritated a tad. "Who's the guy dressed in dark?"

He's The Pirate of Wisdom, not the best at wielding a cutlass, but he knows more and sees more than any of us. His wits have helpd us infiltrate navy forts, escape from the undead, and see invasions coming. He is one of the best.

The man with no coat on, that's Jack Firesteel. He is gifted with power. He knows how to wield a cutlass, throw knives, and is gifted with a power to use Bloodfire weapons. Bloodfire weapons are powerful weapons, that give off a heat and gives off flame, so powerful, it is said that a true user could burn down Padres if he felt like it. Or she.

And the man right there, also dressed in black is Delpadros Darkskull, me son, and first mate. Listen to him, or else you'll face the gallows. He is gifted into seeing the futures if Calypso grants his wish. He can sense enemies surrounding us, and senses ambushes. You see, I abandoned my wife, I couldn't take her anymore. She was annoying, and she was pregnant. We ran away together searching for freedom, and to rid her annoyance to us.

All in all, ye better find a talent quickly, because if ye don't then you'll be in the ocean. Along with the sharks. We'll see you in the morning. Get some sleep in your ship. You're to report here at 7 in the morning. Don't be late.

Or else you'll be stuck here.

*applauds*

Hurrah, Potions Pirate ^-^ Her real name is....

[Captain Del]

I don't know who that Delmaria fellow is, but he sounds like a very savvy, smart, and extremely charming fellow ~_~ LOL

But honestly, I liked it, Dog. Just be a little careful with the wording, I spotted a few mishaps like "most savviest" and stuff like that (although I can't say I'm not one to fall victim to typing errors - LOL )

[Crestshot]

Nice job mate. Haha, way to somehow poke fun at Andrew even when he isn't here... haha, but I like the description of the guildies. You do it well mate.

[Jackfiresteel]

Del you are such a copy cat. I was about to say something like that... -_- lol But thanks for putting me in your story Dog, I love this story! Oh yeah and I do feel like burning down Padres. Just to get back the old one

Chapter 12
Sea Battle

6 o'clock in the morning I wake up, early enough to get ready for the journey ahead. As I grab me cutlass, I head out the door of my ship and already see Captain Del already out.

Yer up early Dog, looks like ye might be fit to fit in the crew. But the only reason I'd be here is that I'm lookin' for a crew, and can't see to find any today. Seems that the tide ain't going right for today.

As soon as he finish the word "today" a man with a grey beard and grey hair. He shouts:

Ah Delmaria! It's been to long! I haven't seen you in forever. How's the crew going for you, and I see you're still living after that fort infiltration.

Captain Del replies with:

Ah Francis, I am doing good. Getting a little rusty in a few bones, but I can manage. I see you comandeered a fine EITC Warlord right there, full with ammunition by the looks of it. Ye have any extra crew members with ye? Today's been a slow day and I can't seem to find any sort of willing pirates to hope aboard the Victory Shark.

Yes I do Delmaria, I shall send some right now, gimme a moment. Hey John! Get over here!

I see a shaggy man running right to the old man.

Get about 20 crew members to help Delmaria here with his ship, and hurry it up or you'll be facing the gallows!

Aye Captain!

Well Delmaria, seems I must go, I apologize but the time is right for me to leave, do not sink with me crew members, I value them. They are already at your ship, I'd hurry before they leave. Fair winds, Delmaria.

And fair winds to you as well, Francis.

Let's go Dog, we don't have all day! Crew mates board me Victory Shark! Get the guns loaded and prepared for any battle! Potions Pirate put your cannoneer drafts into the cannons first! Hurry it up or the sharks will be finding a good meal today!!!

I see all the crew members running aboard, and I am shoved into the ship as well by probably Captain Del, and I hop aboard the ship getting ready. I see the crew members below loading the guns, along with the rest of Del's crew getting ready for battle with the upper cannons. The ship was a Ship of the Line, from where he got it I had no clue, but I had a feeling that the sails were torn off once.

Set sail mates!!!

The sail straps are let go and we are full steamed ahead heading straight to Tortuga. As I grab a cannon and start to load a cannon into it, it came natural as I was born with a talent to load a cannon. I place the cannonball inside, and then stuff it all inside, packed together tightly, ready for a sea battle. When I hear Captain Del shouting at me to come to him.

Dog, you're new so I must give you the speech, you listen to me, and you will listen to me. On MY Ship of the Line you shall listen, fire when I say fire, and broadside when I say broadside. Is that clear?

I nod.

Good, now then let's see how good you are with that cutlass of yours, in a flash he unsheathed his sword, revealing a nice, sharp sword, exactly like mine, and comes down to take a cleave on me.

Before he could do that I take a step to the right and dodge, unsheathe my sword and do an uppercut in his blade creating an arc above my head, crashing the blade into the wood causing it to get stuck. As I am about to disarm Cap'n Del, he kicks me right in the chest knocking me back into the railway behind me, and takes out his sword. Walking towards me and putting both hands on his hilt, getting ready for a final blow, before he could start to move this two hands in an arc I boost up both of my legs and kick him right in the stomach with both of my feet, crashing him into the wheel. And making him fall to his knees.

Hehe, you're good, you may not be the worst swordsman there is, you'll be fine aboard me ship for now, but let's see how you gun later.

I see Delpadros running up the steps of the Ship of the Line, and then he speaks:

Captain! An EITC Ship of the Line Treasure ship is reported on the starboard side! Shall we engage, the ship is alone as the other pirate ships are battling it out with a Tyrant.

Aye, Delpadros, shout it, we shall engage.

Delpadros then screams:

CREW!!!! Get ready for battle! Starboard side! Ship of the Line sighted starboard side! Get ready or ye won't be getting a share of the profits!

As the crewman run to their cannons, I see Del pointing to my cannon, and I run off there.

The EITC Ship is getting closer, and closer and closer until it's only a minute away, I hear a shout,

Fire on my command!

As I get me gunpowder lighter ready, I have it lit and get it ready to fire away with the cannon. As we see the ship of the line, it's massive, and almost as big as ours, but ours was a little bigger, and had bigger cannons as well. And then we are suddenly right next to it, and I lose all feeling, the feeling that these people, killed my father, I wanted revenge, but I couldn't move either, it was like I was paralyzed when all of a sudden....

NOW! OPEN FIRE!!! RELEASE ALL GUNS, BROADSIDE STARBOARD!!!

When his last word was ended, I had lit the gunpowder and 3 seconds after that, the guns shot blasting into the ship, what I noticed is that everybody shot in unision surprising for a bunch of pirates that can't stand on their two feet after drinking a bottle of rum.

I hear the crashing of cannonballs into wood right into the ship, and hear an explosion right in the distance, a cannonball had shot right into a gunpowder barrel causing a massive explosion damaging the ships, and released all the cannons to go hectic in the ship running around everywhere, that much weight running around made the ship unstable, causing it to be unable to fight.

Now mates! Shoot the grappling hooks and get the wooden boards, prepare for battle! Do not let them escape!

As the planks are set, and the grappling hooks too, along with the ropes, we board the ship and see about 50 EITC Assassins on board.

But for some reason, right when we hit the deck they all just magically died, it was like a miracle. As we board the ship back nobody question it, and I see about 10 crew members holding a fancy chest, a Loot Skull Chest but only bigger than the one I found from the Graveyard at Port Royal.

Captain Del then yells:

Ya'll shall get your share right when we dock which is only a few minutes away, you will get random treasures, whether good or bad I don't know and get your profit of gold. Ye did good, but don't think I'll go easy on you next time.

Minutes later we dock, and I'm headed a sheathe, what's in it I don't know, I know that everybody gets one, whether good or bad I have no idea. As I unsheathe it, a stroke of black waves follow it, the sword had power, I could feel it flow down my veins, and then Captain Del walks over saying,

Just got word, Jack's here, but he's trapped in Thieve's Den, we'll raid tomorrow, get ready and nice Black Shark Blade ye got there, best weapon I think is out there, than that cruddy old El Patron sword. Report here 7 sharp, or you'll be left here.

The Final Chapter
Trickery

It be tis morning, the skies shine blue, the townsfolk already at work with their daily life, you could hear the chickens, and the fine early morning breeze along with it. As I stride over to the docks, where I am supposed to be, I see a mysterious man in black, a shady fellow who seems to have no business here, and if he did, it wouldn't be a good piece of business.

As I see the man walk quickly towards the Tortuga Swamps, I see him take out a cloaked dagger, a shiny dagger, that had a dark aura resonating from the whole entire dagger.

He walks over and throws it right at a gator, stabbing it right at it's neck and causing instantaneous death. The gator then turned not into a soul, but into a darkness creature, the darkness surrounded it, and then made it grow until it was a gator of pure shadows.

As I hide behind an abandoned house, and watch this abomination, I quickly duck when the EITC Soldier, glances directly at me, he had heard something, but he didn't know what.

He quickly shrugged off his thought of walking over where I was, and then headed over to the rest of the houses, through a clear of the trees he walks by and then throws a dagger at each and everyone of the gators, each piercing right through the thick, and durable hide and turning the simple gator that Roger controlled, into a host of darkness. Then he throws a dagger right in the center of a lump of land, and I see a wave of darkness resonate from it, and then released, he then mumbles a few words, and walks to the house.

When he walks to the two houses near each other, both abandoned in what seems like decades, or centuries he then grabs a clear bottle, full of a dark liquid. It had a horrible smell, even from where I was I could smell the horrible, funky smell of this liquid. Whatever it was, it wasn't good.

He walks back to the dagger, and pours it around it, causing a dark aura to surround it.

The fog was incredibly thick, and impossible to see through. It quickly surrounded the cloaked man, and also the dagger. The gators watched this spectacle as the event occured, staring their dark eyes right into the center of the fog, while I could feel the energy radiating off of the fog, the darkness was strong here, and what was here, I didn't know, but it was NOT, a good sign.

And then, when the fog grew to it's thickest point, it started to fade away to the air, and then I can see the cloaked man, and then a man I recognized, it was....

Jolly Roger.

I then murmured in a quiet voice,

Jolly Roger, here? What is he doing here, and why did the cloaked man not die from his need of power? What in the Caribbean is going on here?!

As I continue to watch the ceremony as it looked like, I see the fog disappear completely, and the cloaked man stepped back, and gave his respects to Jolly Roger.

I then heard Roger speak. He spoke these words.

Javier.... there you are. I was thinking the Pirates have slayed you. Is there word of the new daggers?

The mysterious man replied:

Yes Jolly Roger, the Abu Nar Clan Daggers have been found and are in a shipment to East India Trading Company now, we are expecting this shipment at Tortuga in a few days, I am expecting your undead shall invade when the shipment comes?

Yes yes.... I shall be there to steal the shipment, while the pirates are busy, I shall invade the transport ships and steal the loot, and make sure that the pirates don't gain what should be mine! The Caribbean shall be mine, and I shall find Sparrow! I am seeing that you shall send these gators to destroy the pirates who dare resist? And I exect your soldiers to not protect the pirates as well.

Yes yes, the gators shall attack right before you strike, these gators have hide 10x stronger than the regular gators, and cause a nasty bite. I shall be at your services Roger, I just came to inform you if what the plan is. Also I came to tell you they are sending them in two shipments. The shipmens will arrive, tomorrow, at 3, and after tomorrow at 6. I am hoping you shall be there for both shipments.

I will. I must make haste away from Tortuga. Before one of those scallywag gypsies have scent of my being. I trust ye shall keep everything in order. Oh and yes, one more thing Javier.

Yes?

Kill the spy.

When I heard those three words, my heartbeat skipped, and then I turn and started to run. But when I took my first step shackles erupted right from the ground and grabbed hold of me, entailing me to the shackles, and making me utterly useless.

Let the gators kill him. To make sure they know what human blood tastes like...
hehehe....

Yes Roger...

Roger then disappeared magically, as if he was never there, no trace, no dagger left in the ground, but of course the gators were left. With the gators left, they then all of a sudden broke the trance of watching the event occur, and then attacked without warning all at me.

Luckily I could move my hand just enough to get my new sword, and it cut the shackles and destroyed each one, causing me to be able to defend myself. As the first gator comes to strike, I jump and land right onto the gators back, smashing my boots as far as they could go right into it's hide.

Nothing.

I take my sword up and try to stab right in between the two armor platings on it, and when it stabbed right through, I could hear the hissing of it going right through the hide. Then the gator started to moan and groan, and then the dagger suddenly started to disintegrate from it's back, and the gator returned to a soul, and then died and had not a trace remaining.

After that performance the gators all got shaky, and started to make a run for it.

I could see the cloaked man right there, watching me, but I couldn't see his face.

The cloaked man then takes a few steps and speaks:

Impressive.... you think that you can stop ME? Roger shall take the Caribbean, and your mind along with it.....

As I grab my pistol from my belt, and shoot it right at him, as he ducks, it catches the hood he was wearing and took it down.

What I saw left me in shock.

What I saw made me totally regret even following him.

The look in his eyes, the darkness staring right at me, pure black just looking at me, creating a hole into my chest.

The textures of his face, all recognizable. But it wasn't him. It wasn't his true self.

It was.

My father.
