Chapter 13: The Shadow Sorcerors Come To The Rescue!
El Patron whispered to the crew, "You have come to take my cursed blades... I will not let you." He unsheathed his blade and held the tip of it at Mark.
Mark said, "Be careful where you point that thing!" Jack slugged Mark's arm and took out his magic blade.
Del said, "El Patron, please allow us to get your blades! We need them!"
El Patron looked at Del's and Jack's blade and said, "Hmm... these aren't very common blades. Ah, that's it. You are the Bladebearers, aren't ye? I haven't seen your generation since I was alive. But, they enraged me so now I want revenge!"
El Patron slashed at Jack, but he countered with a parry. Del unleashed a barrage of slashes against El Patron and finished with a downward slash. Gastro drew his blade and said, "Well, this should be good." He charged into El Patron and temporarily disarmed him. Mark drew his blade and said, "FOR NARNIA!" Everyone stared at him and he said, "What? I needed a good battle cry."
He slashed at El Patron, but El Patron was attacking at the same time! They locked swords, and Mark got the better of him. He stabbed El Patron, and the ghost staggered. He said, "Foolish mongrels! I cannot die, because I am already dead!" The black coated man then said, "Actually, El Patron, you're not doing very well... I expected you to destroy them, but you're just as worthless as Jolly Roger."
The black coated man snapped his fingers and El Patron disappeared! Jack looked in disbelief and said, "You merciless monster! How could you?!" The black coated man replied, "You were fighting him, anyway. Why would you care?" Jack charged at the man, but the man just used his dark powers to slam Jack into the rocky wall! Del, Mark, and Gastro all charged at him, but met the same fate. Stealth used his ugly stare, but the man deflected it back and knocked Stealth unconscious.
Jack barely stood up and said, "I... won't...give up!" Another voice said, "Don't!"
All of a sudden, a man blasted the black coated man and staggered him in surprise. The man said, "My name's Tiberius Fireskull and I can help you!"
Del said, "Tib.. how did you find us?" Tiberius said, "Easy. Used my voodoo powers." Tiberius whistled and another group came. He said, "HAIL THE SHADOW SORCERORS!"
