Jack and Matt made their way back to the ship with hands full of guns, swords, and, of course, bottles of rum. "And so I wrestled a couple of sea turtles, tied them together, and rode my way back into town." Jack was cut-off by the site of the Black Pearl, "Uh...um...go-go that way!" Jack pushed Matt into an alley way before they got to the docks, and waited for a few seconds. "What's this all about?" Matt asked him. Jack peered around the corner and saw the Black Pearl, still there. He turned around to tell Matt a lie about how he thought there was a storm coming and that they should stay away from the sea because monsters come in with the tide, or something to cover himself up when he heard the cocking of a gun. "Gottcha!" Pintel screamed as he and Ragetti pointed guns at the two. Jack just gave a sheepish smile, "Well, hel-hello there...mates..." Rintel and Ragetti pushed the two back to the Black Pearl, and Matt saw that Scarlett and Gibbs had also been taken captive aboard by the mutinous crew. Jack stopped at the ramp to the Pearl and looked around to figure out how to make a quick escape. "Get to movin!" Ragetti yelled, and thrusted the gun into Jack's back. "Hehe, okay...you bloody pirates."
Matt waved his hands, "Oh, um...I don't..." Inside Jack was stocking up on as much pistols, ammunition, and cutlasses he could find. He put them all in some nifty leather weapon belts and threw them all over his shoulder. He made his way outside to see the guards coming, "Eee..." Jack screeched and ran back inside. Gibbs, Matt, and Scarlett followed him in this time. "What's the matter?" Matt asked him. OOC: I'm going to be away for the weekend, and I'm not getting back until Sunday night. So, you all will have to make do without me. Have a good weekend everyone! And happy RP'ing!
Jack gave his half teeth-gritted smile to everyone he passed that wished him a good day. And to his annoyance, that was damn near everyone. Jack was happy once he reached the blacksmith's shop. "Okay, now, I want you...to wait...here." Jack told Matt as he messed around his fingers then pointed them to the ground where they were standing. "Okay?" Jack asked him. "Yeah, sure." Matt responded. "Okay, just making sure we are on the same page here." Jack walked over to Gibbs and whispered in his ear, "Now, make sure he stays here, and doesn't do anything...stupid." Jack inched the door open, and peeked in side. To his luck, Mr. Brown was not in at the moment. "Keep an eye open, watch for bilge rats, and blah blah blah, you know the rest."He told Gibbs, then he made his way inside.
OOC: OMG Oxyrt is back!!! blah.blah.blah...okay, WING, PM me about what is going on, or I'll continue to blindlessly post here. *Thanks you.* BIC: "So what's your goal?" Oxyrt asked Yuna as they sat on two boulders, facing each other. Yuna was looking way off into the distance. "Hello?" Oxyrt tried to snap her out of her trance. "Huh?" Yuna asked in her small, quiet voice as she came back down to earth. "Your goal?" Oxyrt asked her once again. "Oh..." Yuna replied, "I'm sorry." She told him as she giggled to herself. "Ah, it's okay." He comforted her. "Well, my goal is to complete my pilgrimage by praying at all of the temples. Then, after I have Yevon's blessings, I will use the power of the final summon to defeat Sin, and bring peace to the world." She told him with half-confidence. "Wow," Oxyrt told here, "that's alot of responsibility to bare." "Yes, it is." She agreed. They both stared off into the ocean, as they others played in the last bit of sun light, before it went down for the day. The air was filled with the sounds of waves crashing, and laughter of the others. Even a part-way chuckle Khimari. "You think something as big as that would come with a big price to pay. I mean, it sounds a little too easy." Oxyrt said to Yuna. "Oh, yes." Yuna was hesitant, carefully choosing her next words. "You see...well, you must promise not to tell Tidus, I fear that it would be to much for him right now." Oxyrt went along, "Yeah, of course." "Well, the final summoning will take alot out of me. I...will have to give..." Yuna looked to Tidus who was tackling Wakka, as his golden hair sparkled from the wetness of the crashing sea. Yuna loved that smile, and laugh of his. "You will...have to give what?" Oxyrt tried to push it out of her. "My life." Yuna ended. OOC: Ughhh, that sucked!!! I need to be on here more.
"Oh, we can do stuff like that, and more." Jack told her while stroking the side of her face. Matt cleared his throat, "Ahem, Jack?" Jack turned around to see the dock master, standing aboard the ship, waiting for the dues of tying up a ship. Jack rolled his eyes. "Don't worry, I dealt with this man before." Jack said in a stern voice, then walked over to the man and started whispering with him. Matt, Gibbs, and Scarlett waited. The two stopped whispering, and exchanged goods, and the man walked away. "Well?" Matt asked. "We both decided that it was in my best interest to pay the dues." Jack answered him, "And for him to do the same." Jack held up a bag full of gold and silver coins that jinggled. "Wait. So, you payed him a few gold, and he let you have all of the rest of his money?" Matt asked Jack. "Oh, grow up." Jack replied.
Jack and the crew had changed, and they were pulling in to port. "Okay," Jack said while talking to Gibbs, and Matt. "We're going to take that ship." Jack pointed to a ship that was on the far right of the port, docked next to the rock wall that enclosed the city. "We should just be able to climb along that rock wall, and jump on." Jack kept explaining procedure. "What are we going to do if someone is on board, though?" Matt asked, still a little shakey. "He needs to loosen up, I swear." Jack commented to Gibbs. Matt eyed Jack, harshly. "I'm just concerned that once we get on board, that there will be soldiers guarding it, and we'll be stuck, with no defense!" Jack looked annoyed further, "Who said we were going directly to the ship?" Matt looked confused. "Were going to visit an old friend," Jack continued, "for support." Jack finished talking as the boat pulled up next to the dock. OOC: This means that Jack and crew (Gibbs, Matt, and Scarlett) are going to the blacksmith shop for weapons. Well, to STEAL weapons, haha.
OOC: whatever you want Davy Jones to be, tentacles, or human. It really is up to you. BIC: "Forgotten about you?" Jack asked. "Like, over the past year, or within the last couple of hours?" Jack walked over to Scarlett, and sat next to her. "Cause you know love, there's nothing more important, to me, than you, here, now." They leaned in to kiss, and Gibbs came out with the clothes, "Oh, good!" Jack said as he shot up, and to Gibbs.
OOC: Of course it was good. BIC: Jack pulled the ship next to a tall mountain, right out side of the bay at Port Royal. "We're going to steal a ship, here?" Matt asked, his heart was racing. He has never broken the law before, and he didn't like the thought of becoming a convict. "Yeah," Jack answered," I've done business here before. It'll be fine..." Jack gave Matt an 'okay' sign. "Mr. Gibbs!" Jack called after him, "We're going to need something to make us 'fit in'. So, look below decks for clothes, and some bags." Jack shewed him off with his hands. "What are the bags for?" Matt asked him. "Pff, you think I'm gonna ditch these clothes?" Jack walked after Gibbs. Matt's hands were shaking, they were actually STEAL a ship.
OOC: Aw, that was touching, Wing. BIC: Jack and Gibbs let the masts down, and cut the anchor. The sun was coming up, and he did not want to waste a minute of daylight. The ship took a hard turn away from the dock, as Jack made a last minute direction decision. Matt ran up the stairs, to the deck. "What's going on!?" He yelled as he saw JAck at the steering, and Gibbs froze as he was carrying a barrel to the othe side of the ship. Jack and Gibbs looked at each other, and Jack squinted his eyes. "Who are you?" He asked angrily. "Well who are you?" Matt asked him back. "I asked first." Jack responded. "It doesn't matter! This isn't your ship!" Matt told him flat out. "Touche." Jack told Matt, and went bck to the steering process. They were way away from the dock now, into open ocean. Matt ran up to Jack, and put a dagger at his throat. Jack simply rolled his eyes, Not again, he thought. Jack gave Matt a blow in the stomach and he staggered backwards. Jack swung the steering to the left. A pole caught Matt on the stomach, and sent him out over the sea. As he hanged on for dear life, Jack came up to the edge of the boat, using the dagger Matt thretened him with to clean the underneath of his finger nails. "You know, sonny." Jack talked to Matt, "I have no problem letting you fall in the water, and drown. The fact is, I don't know you at all, and it wouldn't matter to me if I let you die." Matt's eyes widened as he tightened his grip. "But you know," Jack continued, "I could always use more help upon this ship. So, either you die, or help me." Jack swung the steering back around and Matt let go, falling to the deck. "So, can you learn to sail under a pirate." Jack threw the dagger near Matt, and it stuck in the wood, about a foot from him. "Or can you not?" Matt looked totally disgusted. He was stuck out in the middle of nowhere and had no choice, "You, sick *******." Matt told Jack, angrily. "Thanks, I get that alot." Matt stood up, and had a grin on his face, "So, you're a pirate, yes?" Jack turned, around, "So?" "Well, you're not going to get far with this ship. " Matt continued to tell Jack. "And, WHY is that?" Jack asked, annoyed. Matt leaned up against the railing, "This is a fishing ship." Jack thought about it, then slammed his hands on the steering wheel. He was going to have to make a side trip, to take another ship. This time, one with cannons. "Looks like, the Aqua de Vida will have to wait, but a little longer." Jack looked onto the ocean, and steered the other way. "Wait," Matt asked, "The fountain of Youth?" "Yes." Jack answered. Matt had always heard of it as a child, but he always thought it was just a myth. His mom used to tell him stories about strong sea men who set out to sail to find the Fountain of Youth. "I want to go with you!" Matt insisted. "Fine." Jack smiled, "But you have to help, to find another ship." Matt smiled, "The name's Matt." "CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow." Jack returned the name giving. "And welcome to the life of a pirate." OOC: that last bit sucked!!!! ah, well. i couldn't think of a way to end the scene, haha.
"Well," Jack confronted Arthur. "I am just on my way out of port, so as you can obviously tell I am running behind. I am a very busy man, Arthur, and I would appreciate it if you didn't butt in to anyone and everyone's business that you come along." Jack always wanted to say that, 'I'm a very busy man.' line. It made him feel like he was important, and the best thing about it was, that this guy bought it. "So, good day, mate." Jack turned to head to the stearing.
OOC: im gonna asume that pretty much nothing happened, because i was to confused when i started reading it, so i just decided since that Oxyrt is not with ya'll, i don't have to know. lol. OMFG!!! i was just scared out of my mind, our surround sond hasn't been working, and my bro was messin with the controler, and we had the volume all the way it could go, and linkin park singing the chorus of Given Up, and all of the sudden, the sound came on and we all jumped out of our seats, omg...haha. lmao. BIC: Oxyrt got up, "Yeah I'm okay, thanks." The all looked at him, "Oh, and my name is, Oxyrt." Oxyrt gave a half smile, and they all welcomed him to the city. Where am I?" Oxyrt asked them. "Well," the blonde head kid started to talk, "we're on Yuna's pilgrimage, and I have not a clue on where we are." The boy laughed, "Oh, and I'm Tidus." Oxyrt shook his hand, "And My name is Lulu." Oxyrt shook the back haired woman's hand, "My name is Wakka, bruduh." He shook the surfer's hand, "And my name is Kimahri." Kimahri didn't stick out his hand, he just kept his arms folded, and looked off to the side. "Okay...then." Oxyrt stuttered, "It's very nice to meet all of you, but I think I need to find a way to get back home, my friends need me." "Take a number!" Tidus said as he folded his arms, angrily. "Huh?" Oxyrt was confused. "Sorry for him," Yuna apologized to Oxyrt, "He came here, probably the same way you did." "Yeah..." Tidus continued, "that is if you got eaten by Sin." "Sin?" Oxyrt asked them, "Who's that?" "Big monster dude!" Tidus made hand movements to try and show him what he looks like. Oxyrt shook his head. "He eats towns!" Tidus said again trying to describe him." "Nope." Oxyrt told them plain and clear. "Okay, well maybe you didn't get here like Tidus." Yuna thought to herself, "Well," she continued, "Your welcome to join us, on my pilgrmage. That is, until you find your way home." The others looked at Yuna like she was crazy. "Yuna," Lulu questioned her judgment, "You already have pleanty of guardians." "He's not a guardian." Yuna told her, "Just a companion." Oxyrt thought about the proposal, "Well," He said with a 'no' tone of voice, "I have no other options, i guess." "Good." Yuna said happily, "Now, shall we?" Yuna made her way out of the temple. "We shall." Oxyrt responded as everyone followed, even him. OOC: Sorry this is soooo long, people. For thos who don't know. I'm inthe world of Final Fantasy X.
Jack, Gibbs, and Scarlett were on the ship, with no crew. His crew was with that mutinous Barbossa. Jack watched as Gibbs and Scarlett had thei squabble, and a man from another ship cam up to them to stop it. "Who are you?" Jack said as eyed the man up and down. "Parley!" Jack heard Scarlett scream. "You hear that Mr. Gibbs, the girl screamed parley, so bring to the captain quarters, until I feel like dealing with her. Jack rolled his eyes as Gibbs took the woman down the deck, and into the captain's quarters. "Now, what are YOU doing on MY boat-uh-SHIP!?" Jack asked he man with an 'I'm not in the mood' attitude.
"I guess I deserved that..." Jack said as he rubbed the side of his face. Matt backed up into a couple of drunk sailors, "Sorry, mates!" He told then, but it was too late. The sailors pulled out their guns, and fired at him, but missed. The whole bar joined in the fight. Matt ducked out of the door, as th fight was under way, "Phew..." He wiped his forehead, and made for the boat. Back on the boat, he was in his cabin, reading letters that he and his mother used to write each other, when his father went sea fishing. He thought they were touching, because it was the only thing he had left of them. Matt heard the ship squeak, and felt it turn into another direction, "What's going on?!" Matt jumped out of his cot, and made his way up the stairs to the deck. Jack, and Gibbs made their way out off the bar, not without 'shopping' around for hats for Gibbs of course. "You see that ship over there?" Jack pointed the fisherman ship. "That's ours." Jack told him and Scarlet. "Oh, and bring her too." he whispered to Gibbs, "We might need some 'company'."
Oxyrt was sitting next to Tifa's side, who was in her bed, at the second floor of their bar. It was night, and it was quiet. Tifa coughed and tried to get up. Oxyrt turned around, "Tifa, you're okay!" He tried to push her back down into the bed, "You should rest, and stay still, you're arm is fractured, and you have bruises all over your abdamon." Oxyrt heard someone running up the stairs, "Tifa!" Cloud called out, busting through the door. "Cloud!" Tifa called back. Oxyrt moved away from the bed, and to the door. He smile while he watched the two embrace each other. Oxyrt turned to leave, and he heard a call, "Oxyrt!" He turned around to Cloud standing right in front of him, "Thank you." Cloud stuck out his hand to him, and Oxyrt shook it. "I've got to go now, and catch up with my friends. See ya'll!" Oxyrt ran out the bar, and into the alley way. He looked left, and right. "How do I get out of here?" Oxyrt took a left, and found himself at a crummy statue in the middle of town. "It's quiet, really quiet." There was no one at tonight, it was getting kinda chilly though. Oxyrt went up to the statue, and laid his hand on the plack that told the story of Midgar, and the calamity that fell to the planet long ago. It was sad to Oxyrt, and he had a lump in his throat, but he knew the place would be alright. Oxyrt stepped back and heard a distant laugh. He turned around and took out his sword, "Who's there!?" He heard the laugh again, then a portal appeared below his feet and he fell into darkness. When he reappeard, he was in an ancient temple, with a few people, and a long stair case that led to a door in the middle of the room. Oxyrt laid their, his side in pain where he was already hurt from earlier, and he struggled to get up. A blue wolfish man, a woman with black hair, a surfer guy, and a boy with pointy blonde hair came to help him up. "Are you all right?" "You okay, broduh?" "Are you hurt?" they all asked him, as they crowded around. A woman then appeard at the top of the stair case from the door and said, "Oh my, are you okay?" She rushed over to Oxyrt, and brushed the black hair from his eyes, "My name is Lady Yuna, and you are?" "Oxyrt." he said as he stood. OOC: ya'll continue on!!!! I want to do this by myself, I want want to explore zanarkand for a little bit, with Oxyrt!!! So, no butting in to save me!!!!!!!!
Cloud turned to Oxyrt, "You take her to safety! I'll stay here and help the others fight." Oxyrt was confused, "Take her where?" "Take her into the city, there's a bar that we own, take her there, and wait for us." Oxyrt nodded, picked up Tifa, and ran out of there fast. Oxyrt stopped,and he's feet caught blue flames, and he jetted toward town, away from the heartless.
Jack tied his dingy up to the dock, then realized he wouldn't need it, so he got his map, and rum out of it, then cut the rope. He took off his hat, and saluted, "Farewell, mate." He put his hat back on, and walked down to the bar. "Where's that Gibbs!" ---------- Matt watched as the character known as 'Gibbs' fondeled the two women at his side, then he felt like going back to the boat. He didn't feel confortable there, in the bar, it didn't feel like a place he should be in. He walked over to the table that the crew was at and told them that he felt like turning in. The men laughed, and stuck rum bottle in his face, and poured it down his throat. Matt fell over into a chair at the table, and wiped the liquid from his chin, "I really ment it!" The men just laughed more. Matt shook his head, and looked over his shoulded, as a shadey character in the door, and yelled over the comotion of the bar, "Mr. Gibbs!" Jack shouted. "I have a proposition for you!" Matt got up from the table, "I'm gonna go now." he backed away from the table. The men tried to encourage him to stay, by pushing bottles of rum in his face, and laughing. "I'm going after...The Fountain of Youth." Jack told Gibbs, who stared at Jack. Jack looked over to the side of Gibbs, "Scarlet!"
OOC: I don't feel comfortable sending that guy info about my character, what if he tries to use my Oxyrt in a book or something, then I would cry :'(, then i would kick his butt. haha. BIC: Cloud led them to an abandoned church, he slung open the door, then yelled, "TIFA!" He ran to a woman laying on the ground, and shook her, "Tifa!" She woke up, and yelled, "Marline!" Then fell back down, Oxyrt and the others ran over to them.
"No," Oxyrt told Nulix, "We should rest somewhere, because they'll be back. You know a place we can rest, Cloud?" Oxyrt asked Cloud directly. "Yes, follow me."
OOC: Outskirts of Midgar, fighting Yazoo, Loz, and Kadaj (who is knocked out) BIC: Oxyrt was blown back, by the same blast as Wing, and landed next to Cloud. "Hey, nice sword." Oxyrt told him, then flew off into battle again. "Thanks!" Cloud called out with a grin, then Loz came in on Cloud, and started throwing quick punch attacks at him. Oxyrt ran over to Yazoo, and slashed him on the side. "AH!" Yazoo called out, then shot the materia bolt at Oxyrt, who dodged it.
OOC:Matt is, and Jack is on his way.
