Sailing

[Scarlet]

Scar was still berating herself for not catching the rat in time. She looked up at Skipper and said " No, quite the opposite...." She said, and, glancing at the dead stoat, ordered two of her crew to toss the body over the side. Then she had one of the younger crew members scrub the deck where the blood was seeping through the wood. Though Scar was the Captain of a fierce pirate ship, she insisted on cleanliness and orderliness throughout the ship. " Well, that was an excitment of sorts, wasn't it? Lets hope Thaiden doesn't decide to fight us head on...."

[Firestripe]

*Firestripe did not like one bit letting them get away so easily. He had his own reasons to not like Thaiden, this latest attempt at stealing from them only making him less likable. He turned to Scar.* "Can we just start shooting at Thaiden's ship?" *Definantly not the smartest option available but one he would defnantly consider. Seeing as how Thaiden wasn't back to his ship yet. If they started attacking, his crew wouldn't be in as good an order as they normaly would with their captains presence.*

[Skipper Of Sea Otters]

"Oh yes and while were at it lets make a dozen coffins aye?" The Skipper said his head tilted towards Firestripe. Behind him Celeron gave a quiet laugh at the thought of coffins. "What we need to do...as much as I am ashamed to say it...is turn around and get to land as quickly as possible. Theres a better chance of a fight being won if we head to land...plus it makes for some fine site seeing aye?"

"Im up for that..." Celeron said standing up placing the pot in a large sack he had in his haversack. He walked over to the group towering over them. "Im up for some site seeing..." Celeron was not one to budge into a conversation but something made him this time as if he had something he wanted to do.

[Firestripe]

OOC: Not necessarily towering over Firestripe, though...

IC: *Firestripe let out a sigh, getting his agitated temper back in check. He knew what he had said was stupid and he regretted even thinking about saying it out loud immediately. Even so, the thought of running away did not sit well with him* "Yeah, stupid thought of mine, huh? Even so... running away? Oh yes indeed, why not turn tail and show him our backsides? Well, I guess whatever works..." *-Hmm, now lets see... how close to land are we...- Land wasn't in sight but he knew it wasn't amazingly far off. He also wasn't exactly sure of their coordinates, but then again, he wasn't the one plotting their course so... either Scar or the Skipper would have their exact coordinates, hopefully.*

[Thaiden]

Thaiden watched the bedrgalled vermin hall them sleves aboard the ship. He would punish them for failing later. One- a rat walked up to him to report. He handed a single beaten silver coin to Thaiden. He had snatched it from the deck where it had lain forgoten by two gambling vermin. Thaiden took the coin, inspected it and hurled it forcfully into the rat's face. He stepped over the rat who was nursing his eye and shouted out, "Prepare to all cannons. If they decide on a direct assult we'll have to be ready."

[Scarlet]

Scar was thinking much the same way as Firestripe; Runaway? The thought didn't sit well with her, but what other choice do they have? Stay and lose unnecessary crew-beasts, and most likely end up with their foremast broken in half by Thaiden's blasted cannons? She couldn't think of any other option but to runaway.... She beckoned to Skip, Celeron and Firestripe to follow her to her cabin so they could talk what their plan of action was to be and exactly how to carry it out. " Come on, I've got some maps and our exact coordinates, we need to think this over before we do anything." She said, and started away to her cabin, a little uneasy at the thought of just her a Firestripe in there alone with Skip and Celeron; She still couldn't trust them completely, as she couldn't trust any pirate. Even if they did try to do something, her and Firestripe were more than matched for Skip and Celeron.

[Skipper Of Sea Otters]

The skipper could almost sense the tension in the room as they walked in....Celeron with the pot that he was still working on. It was quiet odd to see a big, brawny, otter such as Celeron doing something so Delicate such as that. "I figure if we head to the ruins of Redwall we can defend of ourselves there" The skipper said folding his arms in thought.

[Firestripe]

*Firestripe almost laughed at that. Actually, he did laugh.* "The ruins of Redwall? Ha! If only anybeast knew where that was. You do realise that the ruins of redwall have been lost for as long as anybeast can remember, right?" *There were plenty of rumors as to where Redwall could be found but all of them proved to be false in the end. He had been on many of these failed attempts to find Redwall and the all ended in bloodshed and no Redwall.* "Seriously, what can we do. We'd eventually have to turn and fight anyways so why not do that here and now?"

[Skipper Of Sea Otters]

"Its only lost to those who dont know where it is...Luckily...I do..." all of The Skipper screw turned and looked at. He was telling the truth, thats a fact. This skipper of sea otters was quite knowledgeable. He was fascinated with old documents and literature. He was practically a historian himself. " I stand with the Skipper...Id follow him to whatever end may come. " Celeron said eyes looking forward at basically nothing.

((OOC: Will do!))

Scar quite nearly laughed out loud; They knew where Redwall was? The thought was ridiculous to be sure. She put on a skeptical face, disbelieving and almost taunting. "Do you now? And where would that be, exactly?" She asked, a certain doubt in her voice that said " Prove it". Scar had, for the past year or so, been searching for the remaining pieces of the map that led to Redwall and had had a few adventures trying to locate it by just using her own map piece. It seemed unbelievable that this strange otter would know where Redwall was.
