XD Awesome.)
Elle rose triumphantly and walked swiftly to another room below deck. She shoved open the door. "Green! We've done it!" She exclaimed joyously. The old eyes of the former captain lit up. He grasped Elle's hands with his own shaking ones and smiled with surprising spirit for someone so old. "You have...you've done it! The treasure!" He exclaimed, pulling her into a hug. Elle hugged him back, before pulling away, declaring, "I've got to tell the crew!" -
One of Aerona's closest mates, named Calypso Gilk, walked beside her. "Captain, I would recommend travelling through the stealthiest route possible." Rona nodded and turned the wheel a bit and turning the ship into the stealthier route. It was a bit longer, but no one else probably knew where the treasure was. Aerona heard the crew singing a sea shanty. She even joined in a couple of times.
-
Elle came back to the top deck, taking the wheel from Delta and setting a course for the Skull Cliffs. The rocky obstacles were dangerous, but the only way to get to the treasure.
-
A couple of hours later, Aerona spotted the "shark teeth" surrounding Skull Cliffs. The shark teeth were huge jagged rocks in rows blocking the way to Skull Ciffs. Only a few people have ever passed them. But, as this ship's captain, she would get them through them. She had to if she was going to get the treasure.
-
Elle steered cautiously, keeping a sharp eye on the pointed rocks that made up the Shark Teeth. Her crew moved around below her on the main deck, securing the sails and preparing to go through the Skull Cliffs. She squinted into the distance, and almost lost her grip on the wheel. Was that...another ship?!
-
Aerona steered the ship carefully. Then Calypso called, "sail ho!" Rona paused briefly, then continued to steer. There was another ship? Really? How did they find this place? "Should I put up the Jolly Roger, ma'am?" a crew member asked. Aerona shook her head. "Not yet."
(The Jolly Roger is the black skull and crossbones flag. It's also an invitation the surrender.) -
(Bump~)
-
Sorry! And yeah, I know what the Jolly Roger is. :3)
Elle ignored the angered shouts of her crew and steered towards the ship. This could end one of two ways. They'd make allies...or enemies. -
(Ok, just making sure. :D)
Aerona heard the report that the other ship was coming closer. Then again, how could she not hear it? Her crew was loud if not loyal. "Pipe down!" She shouted. The hollering of her crew was quickly replaced by whispers. -
Elle layed anchor beside the other vessel. Ash looked like he wanted to attack them right away, but fm the captain motioned for them to quiet down. Dodger, who was also her first mate, arrived at her side and the two walked to the edge of the deck, waiting for someone from the other ship to come talk to them.
-
A crew member dropped the anchor on their ship. Calypso walked in front of Aerona. "It looks like they would like to converse, ma'am," Calypso said. Aerona nodded and motioned for Calypso to follow her. She stood at the edge of the deck. She stayed silent. If they come to their ship, they will speak first.
-
Elle regarded the two figures. One was a girl about her age, she had another woman with her. She stepped forward. "I am Elle Sparrow, captain of The Sea Dragon.Can I ask what brings to these deadly parts?"
-
Aerona stepped forward as well. "I am Aerona Haliro, captain of The Sea Star. Exploring. These parts are rarely explored. So naturally, I would want to explore them." Rona noted Captain Sparrow to be about her age. "Can we ask why you wished to converse?"
-
"Like you said," Elle explained. "These parts are rarely explored. It just surprised me to see another ship." She hesitated, before asking "Would you mind coming to my quarters? I'd like to discuss something with you in private."
-
"Aye," Aerona replied. Then she turned to her crew. "Avast ye! I'll be right back. I have some business to attend to. Calypso will be left in charge. Savvy?" "Aye aye, cap'n!" the crew replied. Aerona turned back to Captain Sparrow. She grabbed a rope that the lookout dropped down and swung over to the other ship.
