Sorry bout how late I am, but school and etc etc....
Chapter 15
Preparations
Noon, day of the first shipment, Captain Del's crew are all huddled around a table in an unoccupied house.
Delmaria first speaks:
EITC are shipping the first shipment of Abu Nar Clan Daggers from the New World at about 4. The Invasion should take place an hour after that, and we'll be ready, Dog what's this I heard about those Shadow Gators coming to attack us?
I quickly glanced at him and responded with confidence in my voice:
From what I've heard, they'll send the gators before the Invasion actually begins, to weaken our defenses and also have the element of surprise when they arrive as well, now I know that Roger is going to get the shipment and see that it is safely transported by himself. Probably wants to make sure nothing is going on, after he displays that, I would guess he would rise from the water and finish us off himself. So what's the basic plan to defend Del?
As the crew shifts there staring from me to Del, he continues:
First of all, we'll have Potions Pirates put our blades into some voodoo mystique of a liquid, and fill up our pistols with the same liquid, to make sure they have enhanced power and feeling to it, actually, Potions Pirates can do that now.
Captain Del quickly glances at Potions Pirates and she hurriedly grabbed all the weapons that were set on the table next to the talking table and walks outside the door, probably heading to Lucinda to bathe the weapons in the voodoo concoction.
Anyways, we'll have Andrew, William and Delpadros take the right area of Tortuga.
Captain Del throws a rugged old map onto the table and opens the cloth, revealing a perfect map of Tortuga in it's whole, marked with merchant symbols, like the gunshops and blacksmiths all around the island, along with basic paths and where barricades are set in the event of an invasion by the enemy.
Captain Del circles the right area below, with a red mark, hopefully not from gator blood. He speaks:
And then Dog and I will cover the Shipwright barricade. Potions Pirate will set up a flames barricade at the Tortuga Graveyard. Jack Firesteel should be at the West Wall barricade to protect the Faithful Bride. Wisdom go to the East Wall barricade and protect that barricade from the oncoming undead from the Wildwoods. Are we clear?
Aye Captain!
As Potions Pirate walks back in she sets down all the weapons, and Delmaria says for her to head to the back of padres to form a fire wall against the undead.
She quickly nods and the crew walks to the wapons stand, and takes their personal effects and belongings with them and heads over to their designated areas to guard.
As the sun starts to die down a little, you could hear a howl, a loud howl in the distance, at the sound of that, the swamp starts to have a massive stampede going through, with the swish and the swash and the water jumping up and down.
You could hear the moans and groans coming, Roger was coming with his gators, and then lightning struck from the shores of Tortuga, the skies were turned green the next second, and the skeleton ship came into the harbor, with lightning striking all over the ship. You could hear a voice...
Take Tortuga ye dogs! And do not let Jack Sparrow get away, savvy! Go go go!!!
As the undead start to rise, either from the watery grave or from the hard land on Tortuga, the gators are coming out at the swamp at the same time, each one with ferocious power, and probably could kill in one bite.
As the undead unsheathe their swords, and get ready for battle, the shipment for the daggers is right there on the dock, secretly hiding behind a huge rock landform.
Pure chaos, in every corner, just about to happen, how are we gonna win this one.
I hear a voice next to me, and I realize it was Captain Del's.
We'll see Dog, we'll see.....
