(Yay! That KAWEOTH vid was amazing, Ara! :D Like really awesome! :teehee: though it was sad to see no Lotty… oh well. :P oh, and welcome to Lothy too! :D

Btw, I like that we’re speeding things up a bit… and I like all of your new ideas, Will! :D We can easily pick Willabeth up soon here. Hmm, have to get a move on with the Beckara plotline then. But it shouldn’t be too hard.

Oh, and can everyone who doesn't have a character on the main page speak up and tell me who their charries are so I can add them? There's been so many new characters that have come in that I'm sorta lost as to who's already added and who's not. thanks. :))

-------------------------------------

Carmon continued to follow her captor. Of course, that was the only thing she could do. She found herself silently praying that Cole would come and get her. Or maybe he shouldn’t. what did this person want? Would she force them to join her crew? That thought terrified Carmon almost to the point where she wanted to scream and wrench herself away from the girl and tell Cole to run… wherever he was. Her heart felt like it was beating so hard it would explode and she was sure that if she wasn’t so frightened she would’ve broke down then and there. “Please, please don’t hurt him!” she cried, forgetting that this woman had already said she wouldn’t. “Please won’t you let us go? Help us get back home. I don’t want adventure anymore! I don’t want it!” she wailed. The events of the day were beginning to finally take effect on her. All of the romanticism of adventure on the high seas and the life of a pirate had disappeared.

-------------------------------------

Cole could now clearly see Jaiytiea and Carmon as a lone ray of moonlight fell on them. Anger boiled within him as he heard Carmon’s cries and pleas with her captor. What did this woman want? Could he honestly trust her? Did he have any choice? Maybe he could sneak up behind her and knock her out and take Carmon? As he looked around his hiding place he discovered that would be impossible. The ground was littered with things that would happily make noise the second he stepped on them. There was no avoiding it. He would have to give away his position one way or another. Taking one last deep breath in preparation for whatever was to come, Cole slowly stepped out of his hiding place. He held his stick-weapon firmly behind his back as he came forward. It might not do a lot of good against a gun or even a sword but at least it was something. “Let her go.” he demanded, trying to keep his voice steady as his eyes met his Jaiyti’s.

-------------------------------------

Culter stood there gazing, almost glaring, at Keyara for a little while longer. He waited for her to go on. “Yes?” he finally said when she didn't. It came out a little icily. However, in that moment Lieutenant Groves came rushing down. “We’re in Port Royal, Lord Beckett,” he gave a curt bow and finally realized Keyara was there. He looked between both of them before dismissing himself and hurrying back on deck. He didn’t want to be a part of whatever it was that was going on down there. To his surprise Cutler felt relieved that they had arrived. He wouldn’t have to listen to her, look at her or have anything to do with her now… he paused, he still needed her. He needed to have her trust him so that she would get him the Chest. “It will have to wait for later.” He said, turning on her and walking up the few steps to the deck. And there it was! Land. Port Royal. And it was good timing since his ship, and all of the ships in his convoy for that matter, wasn’t in good sailing shape. In this condition they were all easy prey for pirates.

-----------------------------------------

Emma waited in tense silence for the figure to reach them. Her heart beat quickly in her chest. What if it wasn’t just a patrolling soldier? What if it was rescue! It could be! She gripped the cool bars of the cell tightly in expectation.

-------

Lotty caught a glimpse of red hair in the scattered moonlight coming through the barred windows. It looked like… Emma’s! She grinned widely and quickened her pace a little. She tried to tell herself that it could be a trick of the moonlight or it could be some other person with red hair but she couldn‘t bring herself to believe it. “Vari? Emma?” she looked in the cell. Yes! It was them! She stuffed the key in the lock and turned it quickly, looking around the room to make sure none of the other prisoners were watching and would make a ruckus. “Cm’on,” she opened the door as quietly as she could, though the squeaky, old hinges made it hard, “lets get outta here.” She finally noticed that Vari and Emma weren’t alone. Lotty suspiciously looked Aurora over. She cast a questioning glance over at Vari and Emma. “What about 'er?"

[ Pan and Lothy- Are you actually adding that many characters? Won't that be a little too much? I'm quite confused with the number of characters already.. so .. :erm: ]

[Well Alanna, Carmel, Evanna and Felix are all together and I think I can work it so that Carlist is on Beckett's ship. Seeing as Beckett and Keyara have just docked I'm gonna jump my charries forward a couple of hours, hope no one minds.]
___________________

Carlist hurried round tying things down and helping men into the longboats. They were having exceptional trouble coaxing Beckett's horse anywhere near them. When he had a chance to look at his surroundings, he was met by the glorious view of Port Royal. He was happy to finally be setting foot on land again, even if it was raining buckets.

___________________

Evanna was the first to spot the ship. Visability was poor due to the sheeting rain but there, atop the mast, flew the unmistakable sight of the Union Flag, blowing in the wind. Quietly she pointed it out to Alanna, being very cautious not to give away their scattered positions in different allyways. Alanna nodded softly and gave her crew the signal to prepare their attack. They were to get to Beckett and no-one else.

[I think most people (certainly me) have had trouble posting due to busy schedules and lack of inspiration. I'm sure we'll all manage with the amount of Charries, kinda makes up for the lack of posters.]

Jaiytiea tried to hold back her amusement, but found it impossible not to laugh at this would-be hero with… a stick? As if <i>that</i> would really hold up to her katana blade. But she did not want to fight him, even if it was his wish to do so. Besides, she would wait to use her skills on a more… <i>worthy</i> opponent. This lad would not be worth her time or energy, that was for certain. “Calm yourself, boy. I am not harming her, nor shall I harm you, as long as no harm is done to myself… understand?” She paused briefly to raise both of her hands in the air; a gesture that meant she had no weapons ready. “She told me you are her brother, and that you are headed into town. A coincidence, for I am headed there also. She has agreed to allow me to journey with you, for the time being. My name is Jaiytiea Tian.” The Singaporean looked Cole over and found that there was certainly some sort resemblance between the two.

--------------------------------

Edward’s head shot up at the mention of a jailbreak and he knew immediately that it had to have been their friends. Lotty had been gone for quite a long time, and he knew that Vari would not have the patience to wait out the night some dirty cell. They would be the ones to create a ruckus and keep the bloody redcoats on their toes. <i>Serves ‘em right!</i>, he sneered. But Gillette had mentioned East India Trading Company ships approaching the shore… if this was true, then their escape would have to be flawless in order to work. Carmon and Cole were gone. They needed the latter especially, for he was the only one of their merry band that knew how and where to find a ship, and fast. He cast his gaze upwards as dark clouds rolled in and it began to downpour, seeming to add insult to injury. Each time they took one step forward and narrowly escaped death, they’d be sent two steps back and find themselves in even more chaos. There had to be a way to find and rejoin the others… but with Norrington saddled next to them carrying a pistol, it seemed near impossible.

“D*amn it all to hell,” he cursed under his breath and looked briefly towards Sam to make sure she was all right. The poor girl seemed exhausted, and Edward knew that he was a main cause of it. She’d done everything in her power to take care of him and ensure that he lived to see another day… He suddenly could feel his pulse racing and his eyes never left her beautiful face - how he longed to caress that porcelain skin and ease away the pain behind dark eyes that had seen so much of it in the past. He wanted to see her happy again.

--------------------------------

Vari glanced backwards to where Aurora sat before meeting Lotty’s eyes. She nodded firmly and motioned for the keys in the pirate’s hand, before unlocking Aurora’s cell door with ease. “We’ll save the proper introductions for a later time. Right now we need to see to it that we find Carmon and the others.” Vari began down the hallway on the tips of her toes, making sure not to disturb even a single pebble. They would <i>not</i> be captured again - not if she could help it. Drawing in a deep breath, she led the way past cells filled to bursting with sleeping men (and occasional women), passing like shadows at sundown and they finally descended a long flight of stone stairs. However, at the bottom, voices of soldiers still awake echoed clearly through the prison. The exit was just past the table they occupied; once they were past the two bumbling men, they’d be home free. But going unseen was something not likely to happen. <i>This could be a problem…</i> Vari chewed on her lower lip and glanced about for something, anything, that would help cause a distraction. Her eyes settled on a fair-sized rock on the bottom step, jagged and… and just perfect. She bent down and took the rock in hand, sizing up the distance from the steps to the oil lamp burning brightly on the wall. <i>Here’s hopin’ this works.</i> And with that, she pulled back her arm and put her strength behind the projectile. It went just as expected; the rock shattered the glass of the oil lamp, causing the two idiots to run over and inspect the damage with bayonets charged. And then she ran, gesturing for the others to follow before it was too late.

--------------------------------

Keyara was far less than pleased with this outcome, but right now there was business that needed attending. Her own sort of relief set in; no longer would they be stuck aboard the <i>Endeavour</i>; albeit beautiful, her legs could not wait to reunite with dry land, although “dry” was far from reality. The sudden storm had been unexpected, but as was with bad news, when it rained it poured. She peered over the railing of the ship and sure enough, there was Port Royal nestled amongst the lush foliage. Beckett’s men were hastily preparing the longboats that would bring them ashore. It was only when she felt his presence behind her did Keyara notice a soldier speaking to her.

“Miss Pierce, come with me,” he said, motioning for her to climb the ladder down into the boat.

She glanced over at Cutler before settling down into the longboat with the accompanying pair of redcoats. The soldier that had spoken to her offered her a floral patterned parasol which she accepted with a smile. “Thank you kindly,” she nodded, and the second redcoat began rowing through the unforgiving waters.

As he got to the deck he looked over to see that they had finally arrived at Port Royal. Thank God. As much as he enjoyed being out on sea it was always nice to dock at a Port. Especially his home. Soldiers began to take the long boats onto shore and he too got into one, his bayonet propped on his shoulder.

Gabriel's mind began to drift to a person he knew long ago. A woman, a friend.

=======================

Aurora watched as some woman came over to the cells and unlocked Emma and Vari. Well that was all nice and dandy but she wanted out as well. About to voice her concerns she shut her mouth when Vari took the keys from her friend and unlocked her cell.

"Thanks" She smirked and grabbed her tri-corner hat. Propping it onto her head she hurried out and followed the other three women, making sure to keep herself nimble on her feet as to not wake up the drunkards or the other prisoners.

"Nice shot!" Aurora-Rose said a bit excitingly, the two guards hobbling about trying to find the cause of the sudden distraction. Reaching the end of the hall she bent down and grabbed a dagger that one of the men had left. "Convenient" she smiled to herself before continuing out of the jail.

==============

"Seems like they found 'em" Dante spoke to Linny and Eli as he pointed towards their captain who was moving stealthily forward towards the incoming longboats.
