Sykes had been traveling for a while, and his stomach was beggining to get the better of him... He was starving, his body growing weary from lack of food. Luckily, a travelling merchant needed someone to guard his ship from Pirates. Sykes doesnt really like water, boats, or people for that matter, but he needed the money, and food offered to whoever would protect the ship
Sykes sat on the Deck of the ship, as the waves crashed against the sides beating the wood, giving off a terrible smell of salt, and dead fish. Every now and then, a wave would cover the distance of the hull, and splash across the deck.
Sykes thought to himself
"Damn this is so boring.... Why cant we get just a little action?"
Then immediatly the sound of cannon fire was heard. Then the crashing of Wood as the cannon ball shattered on of the masts. Next came a loud voice
[glow=red,2,300]"PREPARE TO BE BOARDED. MAYBE IF YOU DONT FIGHT BACK WE'LL LET YOU LIVE HAHA"[/glow]
As ropes were thrown from the pirate ship over to the merchant's vessel.

Cloud was trying his best to get back to 7TH Heaven. He took a ship thinking that it would be faster....Cloud never got sea sick. He loved the sea. All he could think about was getting back with Tifa. As soon as possible. He had her a present too. A necklace he had bought her. Which was around his own neck at the time. Cloud had to pay a high price to get on this ship. But they let him on.
Cloud was sound asleep in a swinging net. That was attached on one pole while the other side was attached to another pole of the other side....He had just ate his supper...And thought that he needed to rest. He wanted to call Tifa....But his phone didn't reach all the way to Midgar. As far as he was....
The sound of a cannon woke him up! "PREPARE TO BE BOARDED. MAYBE IF YOU DONT FIGHT BACK WE'LL LET YOU LIVE HAHA" Cloud heard that....Who was attacking them? He looked for his sword....But could not find it...As he heard foot steps rushing down to where he was......

In one fluid motions Sykes moved to his feet, and attacked a man who was attempting to board the ship. With unbelievable speed, Sykes stiff armed the man knocking him into the tossing water below. Then with a flip he sliced the rope with his katana, and awaited the next fly to land in his web
A gnarly group of men began to gather on the edge of the other ship, and stare at him. Then a man in nicer clothing stepped up to the edge, and looked at his band of pirates, and exclaimed
[glow=red,2,300]"What the Hell are you doin?!? he's just one boy Get your lazy Asses over there"[/glow]
as he pointed, and pushed one of the men down another rope.

Cloud rushed to the deck. As he heard the fight. And one of the pirates lunged towards Cloud...As that the pirate only met, Cloud's sword in his gut as Cloud stabbed him...And pulled the blade out as he watched the man fall....Another tried to grab him from behind...And Cloud lifted his free arm up from behind he smashed his elbow in the man's nose! Breaking it! Forcing the pirate to fall through the wooden door that led to the captains quarters....
Cloud then saw the pirates gang up on Skyes....He then leaped into the air and landed right beside the man....
"Need a hand?"
((Hope this is okay^^))

}{I was going to join earlier, but I had to leave for that thanksgiving stuff. Hope you two don't mind the late entry.}{ Okay! Let's recall. Land on new, strange world. Check! Run into pirates which I said exist, but ya chose not to believe me. Check! Pirates try to rob, but fail 'cause we're completely broke. Check! Pirates threaten our life yet ya choose not to do anything. Check! Pirates takes us hostage on a pretty, sweet ship. Check! Ya followin' me? You can't be a hostage if you choose to go of your own free will and-- Yeah, whatever. The point is that we're gonna die and there's no pretty women here!
Fate sighed. He decided it would be best if he ignored Hope. He was tie to a chair in the captain's quarters. He could have easily got out of this contraption using his special abilities, but he figured for now he would play the role of the helpless victim. He stared at his surroundings. Nothing, but blank wood and the captain's desk. Man, was he lame. He could have added a little color.
Fate yawned as he was actually readying himself to take a little nap, but the sound of wood being crush ruined that. Great! We're gonna go down with a sunken ship! When we died I always thought it would be a ninja that did it. Ya think they give us our own holiday after we die? ..... ..... No, I didn't think so either. Hey! We might get a parade!
The wooden door that held Fate in the room now launced off its henches thanks to the body of an unfortunate pirate. He looked out the door from his strapped seat, seeing the action that took place. Maybe this was his big break. "Hey! One of you cool guys should untie me. I can totally help! |

(yeah, its fine lol)
Sykes smiled as a man who appeared to be on his side appeared in the fray. The blonde man asked if he needed a hand. Ironic as it was just as one of the pirates reached out to grab him. Sykes shifted his weight 8 inches to the left, grabbed the man's wrist, and cleaved off his arm at the elbow joint. Sykes laughed a little as he sarcastically said
"Nope, Ive got one right here"

((I don't mind^^))
"Hey! One of you cool guys should untie me. I can totally help!"
"Nope, Ive got one right here"
Cloud nodded and rushed to the captains quarter's.....He saw that the man was was tied up in a chair....He rushed over and at once untied him....
"Are you alright?!!" Cloud asked as he finished untying the man.....Cloud was trying his best to help. He hoped that the man fighting was alright...This was bad....What if they sank...? What if he was captured....? A lot of questions raced through Cloud's mind....The one thing that ran through his mind was her....Tifa. Would he ever see her again?

'Cool guys'? Dude, ya so lame. Everyone knows it's not cool to call someone else cool! I have to explain everything to ya!
Fate ignored Hope's comments as Cloud approached him. "I'm fine. Just a little tied up at the moment."
Booo! Horrible pun! Get off the stage! Shut up! I didn't even mean to do that. Yeah, whatever. His hair is totally defying gravity! We he untie us we have to touch it!
Fate stood to his feet and stratched to get the feeling back in his limps. From the looks of it these two didn't need much help, but it was the least he could do for their services. He walked to the corner of the quarters and picked up Liberty, his sword. They must have not expected him to escape, leaving his weapon so close. "Okay. So which pirates I attack? They all look the same to me." |

As the blond man ran to the captain's quarters to untie the man, another pirate lunged at Sykes. It was actually kinda sad. The pirates attacked so sloppily, there was no way you couldn't read what they were going to do, But Sykes was bored, and decided to play around for a few. He simply shifted his weight to the side, and kicked the pirate's feet out from under him. Causing him to skid across the sea soaked deck right into another of the pirates, causing him to fall flat on his face. Sykes laughed a little as he smiled, and said
"You know you guys are about the saddest crew i have ever seen"

"I'm fine. Just a little tied up at the moment."
Cloud used the sharp edge of his sword and cut the ropes free from the mans hands....
"Okay. So which pirates I attack? They all look the same to me." Cloud sighed as he looked over at the man....With that side of his face you could see blood running down from the start of his temple....But right now Cloud only cared about was getting back to Tifa as he promised.....
"Which ever ones that point a weapon at you is my best guess...By the way...My name's Cloud...." Cloud thought it was important that they were on a first name basis....So if some thing were to happen, Cloud would know who the man was......

The ones that point their weapons at you... Well, that was simple. Fate should have expected that answer. That's a big sword. Yeah. Now silence. I can't have you distracting me in a fight. ... Guess ya haven't looked 'round. These pirates are bums. This is jello for us... The green kind. Fate placed his sword over his shoulder, scanning the area. Honestly, it seemed that these two hid this under control.
"Fate Lingod," He answered Cloud, "Wish we were meeting under better circumstances, but whatever." A skinny pirate charged sword first at Fate. Fate simply side stepped and slammed his sword's hilt on the top of the pirate's head; unconcious. "One... He ran forward letting the blade of his sword drag against the wood before he struck down another unfortunate pirate. "So you two travel these seas a lot?" |
