Alright sorry bout not posting in a while. Had finals to study for and etc. Here is chapter 5!
Chapter 5
Recreation of Destruction
I see the ship and I am just flabbergasted at what I see. Then I snapped back to the real world and began my journey back to Tortuga. Surely I would need a crew to sink these powerful ships. The last time without a crew, we sunk quickly and they showed no mercy.
I sail over there at full speed and finally dock right at Tortuga. For some reason the docks are on flames and then all of a sudden the tavern, King's Arm exploded with all of its fury into shambling pieces.
I ran into the town trying to figure out why in the world is there explosions going on in the pirate home: Tortuga?! I ran into a man muttering this. "The EITC, the EITC, run the EITC have come to destroy the islands!"
I then did what no man should have did. I ran into the town with my full fury and rage. I was corrupted with revenge and took out my bloodfire cutlass which strangely turned on fire without that burning sensation once more. It was peculiar when I think back on when this occurred.
I run in there and see explosives set everywhere. And by a peculiar coincidence I see barrels, not just any gunpowder barrels but the EITC symbol onto the barrels. I then began to scream in my mind. But I would not give up and let this happen.
As I see faithful Bride being blown up I try to open up that door. It would not budge. I kicked and kicked again and then finally it seemed to pop open and all of these flames of wood and EITC gunpowder barrels where left in front of me.
I see James Pidgeley in danger and I run to help him. James then muttered, " The wretched EITC have set explosives to rid of us pirates, save yourself!," I screamed " No, I'm not leaving behind anybody! " I then get him walking with me and then the roof just collapsed right in front of me!
I then started to wonder how in the Caribbean are we supposed to get out of here now. James then told me that there was some gunpowder stored in the storage room. Go get it and set it on the collapsed rubble.
I ran into there and got the gunpowder which was safely put in barrels. I ran and put the barrel right in front of the rubble, lit it and took cover.
BOOM went the gunpowder sending the rubble into a thousand miniature pieces and sending shrapnel everywhere. Surprisingly none of the shrapnel hit us with our luck. Only this was just our only piece of luck I later learn.
We both run out and I tell James to run to the beach and board somebody's ship. " You need to go James, I'll stay back and help any other people stuck in this chaos " James then said " You're a great pirate Dog, and you have a greater heart, you'd make a true first mate and a true pirate. " As he walks away another explosion happens and then everything went in a flash.
Doc Grog's exploded, and then Millie's Cottage along with all of the other buildings. The blacksmiths and the gunsmith's shops were blown up in the action. In the blur of smoke I see the one thing I didn't expect to see.
I saw an EITC soldier carrying around a gunpowder barrel and he was setting it on fire. Not today I thought. I found a dagger right at my feet. I took aim with percision and through it right at the EITC soldier. It caught him right in the leg, he fell and was never, ever seen again.
I then saw other buildings go up in smoke and then I knew that it was too late for Tortuga, the hideout of Pirates. I knew it was its time to cease to exist. As I run to the beach I see Tortuga clearing the smoke and in shambles. But what I see is the strangest thing ever.
I see EITC soldiers and then some of the dockworkers and blacksmiths along with other townsfolk rebuildings this town back together.
" Maybe it isn't time for the Hideout of Pirates to end " I said. And along with that I ran back onto my ship and took refuge as the exlosions continued and shrapnel flew everywhere. I may have missed the ships that killed my father but at least i live another day to try to get vengeance on those ships.
They will pay is what I thought in my mind. I later learned that this was much different from the truth. As I start to set sail, I see the mist clearing and a new Tortuga coming out of the ground, a new Hideout for the pirates.
Tortuga the Hideout of Pirates, has been rebuilt, and its dignity? Well we'll have to see what happens next to answer that question...
