Fantasy The age of dragons: a pirate’s tale. (Actual rp)

[Flowiest D]

Arashi let a tiny smile slip out. These brothers were quite amusing, and far from what she had originally imagined. She turned to Bo and became serious once more. She saw the way he had looked at her, and knew that he recognized her. She didn't let it show that that bothered her a little bit.

"I signed a contract with the promise of a generous compensation," she explained. She didn't mention the fact that she had been sold on the idea by being told the two of them might be joining. "My name is Arashi, but I suppose you already knew that much." She kept her tone of voice neutral.

Bo nodded “That dragon hunting expedition?” Bo couldn’t contain his small grin. So others are interested in killing dragons.. bo states “I think we have something to discuss”
“Yea kill some dragons and become king” jay chimes in standing up and brushing dust off
Bo went to slap jay who swiftly dodged. “Jay that’s saying we get paid well, not become royalty you fool”
“I’m already royalty here” jay announced raising his hands high proudly
“I’m the beast of boline and I am top predator in the food chain!!...”he points a finger at bo and states “and I’ll prove it to!” He went back to his tent and continued preparations.

Bo sighed but turned to Arashi “jay and I were only supposed to be here a week at most.. but of course...he heard about the attacks outside town where people tried growing wheat and he’s convinced it’s a monster he has to hunt”

“Who else is apart of this contract?” Bo asked politely with a stern tone

Arashi listed off the names she had read on the contract, having instinctually memorized them. "I do not know any of them personally, or where to find them," she explained. She looked over at Tomas, who had obviously been paying no mind to the conversation at hand. "Your friend here is to help with that, I was told."

She looked over at Tomas, who had obviously been paying no mind to the conversation at hand. "Your friend here is to help with that, I was told."

Tomas made noises like um and er as bo turned his attention to the drunk.
“Them Erin boys are crab hunting.. uh that could be half your crew if you take a fishing boat and go up as you go” Tomas stammered as bo walked closer.
“You mean we have no crew or ship?”
“It should.. be in the contract” Tomas stated taking a step back “surely you could acquire what you need here?” Bo took another slow deliberate step toward Tomas.
“No murder or theft in boline.. under pirate council authority”
“But I been robbed by whores each day!” Tomas rebuttals
Bo let a quick “heh” out his smirked lips before he went on “and they gave it all to me” he lied.

Tomas made a noise of exasperation but bo continued “where’s your superior”
“In the jacked sparrow” Tom answered quickly.
“I’m going to go speak with him, you are going to watch Jay.. understood?”
Tom looked between the brothers “you really do treat him like a dog don’t you?” He said softly
“Make sure he stays” bo said again to Tomas “nice meeting you” He states to Arashi before walking toward town.
“JAY!” He shouts turning back.
“WHaT!”
“Stay there!” Bo shouted as he continues back to town.

“Fuck you!” Jay shouted still mixing ragga together. “Nah I love you brother!” He shouted again after a minute.

Tomas stood dumbfounded and embarrassed next to Arashi “Guess.. I’m watching jay.. suppose you could see what that assholes up to if you want..”
he made a thumb toward bo and slumped over to where jay was in the tent.
“Where the fuck is those kids with my shit” jay asked outloud to no one.

Arashi had to admit that tracking down this superior of Tomas's with Bo appealed to her more than remaining here with... These two. Besides that, she was somewhat intrigued by the serious twin, and wouldn't mind speaking to him without his eccentric brother. She covered her face again, preparing to delve into tbe crowds of people again, and caught up to Bo in few hurried strides.

"I hope you do no mind company," she said with what she hoped was a decently pleasant tone. She wasn't used to trying to friendly with those she was acquainted with. Even when she was a part of different teams in the Hapen army, she never went out of her way to become friends with any of them.

“I don’t” bo stated taking a quick glance at who walked beside him.
“Do you know the drunks boss?” Bo asked as they turned away from the crowd and walked towards the brothel Fredrick was in.
A group of kids one holding a bow and another a quiver of arrows rushed past giggling.

Jay was asking Tomas if he would try his ‘soup’. Tomas said no.

 

[CyanDragon]

"Not well, but I am familiar with him. I recently completed a job for him, and he was the one who presented me with the contract. His name is Fredrick, and he is a reasonable man, in my experience." Arashi kept close to Bo as they walked, weaving through the densely packed streets fluidly.

When they neared the brothel, she knew for certain he was inside by his very recognizable laughter. Looking inside, she was able to quickly spot him, and pointed him out to Bo. "There."

Bo walked through the people to the table Fredrick sat and asked the ladies he sat with to leave, he did so politely just like jay would if bo had told him to.
The ladies left with a rather scared look though. Bo sighed and sat down to a somewhat surprised Fredrick.
“Give me the contract. Now please” bo stated with his hand out
Fredrick fumbled and produced a pencil and said contract. Bo read it then signed his name and jays, simply “Bo” and “J” underneath.
“If anyone else signs that contract tell them to look for J at the ragga patch”
Fredrick nodded in agreement “j at the patch got it”
Bo left Fredrick there but took his bottle of rum. Walking past tables again to where Arashi stood he motioned her closer to whisper.
“A ship and crew is needed for this. Would you help steal a ship?”

 

[CyanDragon]

Arashi nodded. "Of course, " she said just as quietly. She could help him do it quickly and discreetly, so as to not draw any unwanted attention. Stealth was a specialty of hers, after all.

She let Bo lead the way to the docks, and helped him survey the area. She pointed out out a section with little activity that had a fair selection of a few different ships.

“Aye I’ve thought about it, but most of these ships are owned by captains and people who fish for a living” bo directed Arashi to a different area of the docks, this one had guards of different attire standing watch.
“The pirate council, more Miguel sanders.. has at least three ships he doesn’t use, they are tied up there with the lion crest on the Jolly Roger “
Bo nodded toward three ships flying the same crest
“I’d rather take something not needed if you get my meaning” bo stated as he took a swig of rum.

The kids had given jay a bow and some arrows and he was giving a demonstration on ragga
“See this arrow just has to scratch you now, and you won’t be helping anyone soon.. goes for beasts to”
He dipped a arrow in his mixture and called out to Tomas
“No jay I was told to wait with you here..”

 

[CyanDragon]

"Yes, fair point, " Arashi agreed. She studied the ships and the guards surrounding them. There were plenty of opportunities to board one of ships without being seen, and even if they were, she was carrying sleep darts in her tool pouch if it came to it. She mentioned these observations to Bo.

“Let’s wait til we have a crew to actually sail the ship out.. and for night.. the guards here watch the docks more than anything it’ll be easier for everyone to sneak on and leave then.” Bo looked at the tower overlooking the docks and the two men atop it chatting as they watched the docks.
The two story longhouse where pirate council sat. He remembered standing beside Xiao at one of said meetings. “I’m gonna have to go check on jay but if you feel up to it..”
Bo looked at the ships again.
“That one closest to the ship with all the skulls hanging from it. That looks a decent size for at least sixteen people. Could you sneak on there at some point today and see what’s inside? Cannons, supplies of any sort?” Bo took another long swig of rum.
“If jay hasn’t killed that fool yet then worse may have happened to him ”he muttered as he considered what could happen without his watchful eye.

 

[CyanDragon]

Arashi looked at Bo with some amusement. He treated his brother harshly, but it was obvious he cared for him. She glanced back at the particular ship Bo had pointed out. She would wait for the shift change in guards and sneak aboard then.

"Yes, I do not mind taking inventory. It should be a simple task." She looked back at him. "Should I meet you and your brother back at the ragga patch this evening?"

“That would be best” bo gave a quick smile and a nod before walking fast toward said patch.

Arashi could easily see eleven guards who could spot her at present moment, the guard shift changes in two hours, (not that she knows)
During her time waiting she sees two men lead three women into said ship.

Bo weaved through crowds and ran when he could. But by the time bo reached jays camp Tomas was a whimpering mess, a small cut on his cheek puddles of urine and spew where he lay and presumably rolled to said point.
Some of the teenagers had stayed and talked amongst themselves at the state Tom was in and what he had been saying.
Bo glared at the teens. “What happened”
“Your brother cut tommy to show us what the monster would do” one answered quickly
Another spoke up “he’s hunting a beast and he took John with him as squire”
“What?” Bo asked sharply
“He said squire was someone who held his arrows and slurry bow and grog while he hunts” he same boy said.
“Barhhhhhhh!” Bo shouted as he paced.. “Make sure tommy has water and can spew”
Another teenager stated “Esmeralda sanders went to tell her dad what jay did”
“Darrghhhh!” Bo kicked Tom who spewed and whimpered more.

Arashi moved to a more hidden corner of the docks, while still maintaining a good visual on the ship. Seeing the two men lead the women on board sent a wave of annoyance through her, though that was all. They would be a nuisance, but by no means would ruin her plan.

When the current guards finally began to leave for the shift change, Arashi made swift use of her short window of time, moving swiftly to the ship through the shadows and climbing aboard via slight footholds at the rear of the ship. She slipped below deck on her way to the cargo hold just as the new guards arrived.

 

[Flowiest D]

Arashi could hear Miguel’s men bragging to the women about owning said ship, they walked through as the two men gave a tour. On deck was four cannons two either side.
Arashi would have to sneak past the guards and women or take out the five at a opportune moment.
She could hear footsteps heading towards the stairs she had just descended.
“I’ll show you my quarters if you want ladies” one said with smugness radiant in his voice.

 

[CyanDragon]

Arashi glanced around the lower deck quickly, weighing her options. The only hiding place available to her was the shadow cast by the stairs the 5 were coming toward. She hoped they would be too busy with each other to notice her. Once they entered the room directly opposite the stairs, she would be free to slip through the hatch into the cargo hold.

She slipped into the shadow just in time, pressing herself flat against the at wooden side of the staircase. Just in case, she had her wire in hand. Luckily for her, they didn't seem to notice she was there. Once they close the door to the sleeping quarters, she races through the hatch to the cargo hold. Now, it was a matter of getting the inventory and escaping the ship before those people were done with the sleeping quarters.

Arashi saw black powder kegs, nets, cannonballs nothing like water or food however.
A quick look around the ship shows eight cannons below deck combined with the four above is twelve. Actual provisions would need to be loaded on board before this ship left however.

 

[CyanDragon]

Arashi took a moment to memorize what she saw, then crept back to the hatch. Above, she could hear that the group was... quite busy at the moment. She opened the hatch and left in a hurry.

She climbed the stairs up to the main deck carefully, and paused just before she reached the top, taking a moment to survey the deck. There was one guard, but he had his back turned to her, so she quickly and quietly made her way to the same place she had boarded the ship and climbed down that way. Escaping the docks was a much slower undertaking than boarding the ship had been. Now, there were guards posted all over, so she had to take it a step at a time, moving from shadow to shadow.

 

[Flowiest D]

The only immediate threat was the two guards on the tower overlooking the docks. The guards on the dock were looking at the crowds and the seas.
The two on the tower kept watch fifteen minutes later one went to the right of the tower to piss over the ledge. The other looked to the left more a tad awkward and complained “why the fuck do you do that here?”
“I like the breeze..”

 

[CyanDragon]

Arashi made a soft, disgusted noise, as she was currently hiding behind a stack of crates a few feet from the tower. Quickly, she ran another spot, and then another, before finally being able to enter the crowd and blend in, heading back to the ragga patch.

By the time Arashi made it to the patch bo was being questioned by Miguel’s men, three stood with rifles and bayonets. Bo tried explaining
“Jay was warning kids he didn’t attempt murder on Tomas here” Tomas spewed again but spoke after “he” much coughing and spitting happened
“He wouldn’t kill me” Tomas took a knee. “I tripped”he lied
“Where’s your brother now” a guard demanded.
“Hunting.. go join him if you want” bo stood back and raised a arm as to beckon one into his home. “But I’m not sneaking up on him while he’s hunting” bo states as a warning.
The three men talked between themselves.
“Miguel might want to see you tonight bo” one said pointing at bo as the other two walked back.
“We’ll find you if it comes to that” he warned before joining his friends.
Bo glared until they left his sight.

Arashi approached after they left. She walked up to Bo and gave him an exact description of the contents of the ship. "We'll have to gather food and water before we leave." She glanced in the direction of the men that had left. "Will that interfere with our plans, do you think?"

“Maybe.. but shouldn’t be overall” bo thought for a minute before speaking. “Water and food is are overall goal then apart from a crew, yet to see these Erin boys who been looking for crabs. We need a crew” bo threw his now empty rum bottle at jays tent.
“Should be easy to get a seaworthy crew but I’m more worried how they would do in battle” bo ended with. “And Jays taken some fucking kid hunting with him” he looked to the trail jay went down and the longhouse of boline.
“You’ve met jay any chance you could.. find him and convince him to come back to his tent?” “I would myself but I think I should be finding Miguel and trying to excuse jay of attempting murder” he looked down at a recovering Tomas.
“Your coming with me” bo stated as he grabbed at Tomas to drag him to his unsteady feet.


Jay and John trekked through vegetation following a visible trail made by... something.
Jay had a arrow dipped in ragga notched and ready.
John followed whispering.
“What it say?” Jay asked John who held a small eagle on his arm.
“It has horns and walks like a man” John translated.

Jay smiled and laughed lowly. “Suppose I kill a real demon” he thought outloud.
“Could you?” John asked
“Yes” was jays answer. And they proceeded.

“I wish I could talk to birds” jay said outloud. “Not hard” John replied letting the eagle fly off.

"Sure," Arashi said agreeably. "I'll see what I can do." She started down the trail, following the rather obvious signs that Jay had left. A broken branch here, the scent of ragga there... He wasn't exactly being, as one might call it, careful. She walked quickly and with purpose, and soon was in range to here Jay's loud voice.

(Jay and John are in the middle of boline, at least a hour away)
Bo thanked her before she left and warned her.

Another stick broke under John and jay looked at him with a disappointed stare.
“Sorry” John whispered, but jay made John take a look at what he saw. Blood, the ashes of a fire, and the entrance to a cave.

“Beasts don’t make fires Johnny” jay warned. “What’s ya bird say?”
“Eagle gone..” John stated.
“Well I’m going in the cave” jay lowered himself to a crouch as he stalked towards the cave entrance.
Remains of humans and.. bottles? Littered the area.
“Beasts don’t drink..” jay looked into the cave as it descended down into the earth at a slant. “ this here used to be mined for reasons” jay called out to John. Who wouldn’t follow.
Looking into the dark jay took a bomb from his pouch, and rubbed his thumb and pointer finger together until a flame was between his digits. Lightning the fuse and rolling it into the cave he saw it dissapear.. until a bang sounded off and smoke slowly made its way out the cave.
Jay stood ready to shoot whatever was in there.
