When the sun sets on me...

[The Commodore]

This is a tale of joy and sorrow, of pain and happiness. But most importantly, this is a tale of what one person can do if they have a cause...


The man walked into the King's Arm, his jacket wrapped to keep him warm from the cold pressing rain outside. The bartender sized him up and spoke. "Can I get ya a drink there mate?" The man nodded, and the house drink, rum, was placed at his spot on the bar. "That'll be 5 pieces of gold there mate," said the bartender. The 5 pieces seemed to appear from nowhere, but the barman slid them to his side with practiced ease. The man stood up, walking over to a guy playing poker. "Excuse me, but do you know what the Navy plans to do when they attack Tortuga?" They both pulled pistols on each other. "Now, how would a burnt out drunk like ye have any clue as to my allegiances." The wide brimmed hat the man had been wearing to shield his face from the rain fell off. "Cause I used to be in the navy you worthless barnacle." A pistol fired, a body fell, but Commodore Ezekiel Leyland, better known as Zeke was still standing. "What's everyone looking at," he said. "His fault he didn't have a better cover."

Part II to be added later. What do y'all think?

[akamystic]

Keep it going.......I want to know where this is going.....

[The Commodore]

I'll add a part two when I get some inspiration, or I just feel like writing part two.

Let's just say the next part won't be on tortuga, someplace a bit more regal...

[Juliana Maria]

I love it!!! Looking forward to part II.......

[jason davy]

Encore, encore! lol

[The Commodore]

Part II

How did I get myself into this? That's right, I refused to execute pirates, and almost got executed myself. Zeke silently rowed the longboat towards the rear dock of Kingshead, where the secret dealings of the Navy and EITC occurred. He climbed up onto the dock, walking into the underground areas of kingshead. He saw saw the quarters for the soldiers, and the warehouses. But he had a target in particular, the navy's battle plans for the rumored seige on tortuga. He stalked through the shadows, when a hand grabbed him from nowhere. "Zeke mate, it's me Jason." Zeke stalled his grab for his blade. "You idiot, I could have killed you. What are you doing here?" Jason just smiled. "Same reason yer here." Zeke grinned and climbed up onto the wall, sliding along it. They walked into the documents hall, and managed to steal what they needed. Walking out, they ran into a team of veterans. "Crud. Jason, RUN!!!"

To be continued...

"Part II Abridged"

Lol, keep it coming Zeke.

[The Commodore]

Part II is up. They're short cause i'm writing mostly freehand, and cause i'm telling it this way.

[Juliana Maria]

Hehe... so what happens?? Do they destroy those veterans??? Great story so far!! Can't wait for Part III!!!

[The Commodore]

Part III

Zeke dropped, withdrew his two double barreled pistols and fired. The four shots took down four of the ten vets. The brace of daggers he kept hidden in the sleeves of his jacket took care of the rest. "Dont make em like they used to, eh jason?" Jason grinned, then they both took to running, sliding down the rocky cliff above the secret back dock. "My sloops anchored about 60 yards out," said Jason. Zeke nodded. "Good, I stole a light sloop, the blasted things probably already sunk. There were holes all over it. We best be making for Isla de Avaricia. We can lose the navy's scent." And so they set a course for Isla de Avaricia, the sun rising behind them...

Some time later on the island of tortuga...

Zeke walked into the King's Arm, amidst cheers and applause. He laid the plans down on a table, and slid out of his jacket. "Great to be home..." As he took a swig of rum, he noticed something on the plans. The original date had a light slash on it, something he had missed before. A new date was written below it. That's tomorrow, he thought to himself...

[Linds]

[Juliana Maria]

So wait.. the plans they stole are for attack against the pirates right? At first I thought they were planning an attack against the Navy..

Great job so far!!

[Erich Uchiha]

Great Zeke! POTCO Should put you in their Lore section

[The Commodore]

Part IV

The silence before the storm, eh Zeke? Zeke paused to check all his weapons, the pistols, his many assorted blades and daggers, the heavy custom designed cutlass strapped to his belt, and the weapons of voodoo he carried, his staff and his doll. "Are the barrels in place Jason?" A nod answered that question. "Good, maybe that'll slow em down..." Zeke sighed and took a swig of rum. "Get some riflemen up on that rock next to the shipwrights. Make sure the main town is closed off." Then, the sight that drained all their faces; Naval Ships of War. "Stand ready!!!!!!!! Today we fight for our freedom, today we fight for our home, TODAY WE FIGHT FOR THE CARIBBEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!"
