Without a Trace (A DMDTS Sequel)

[Dr.Hobo2]

Lanbar looked around, he was still next to the hardware store. He faintly remembers annoying the woman at the counter before...before he blanked out. Man...I could do for some rum right now. He stood up still looking toward the store and bumbed into the man towering in front of him. "Oh, sorry about that." He said as he simply patted Parry on the shoulder and began walking away. Maybe I can just grab another quick swig from that bottle I hid.

[Shujinco2]

"Well ah.. wha? Wait... you have food?" Shu asked, somewhat hungry. "Do you have enough for both of us? I have a lack in money."

[THEBIRD]

The captain smiled, now whirling his cannon around to face Shu. "I'm a nice man, so hows about I give you two five seconds to run, eh?" He holds up one hand, hidden behind a black glove and begins counting down. "One..."

Parry aimed his gun and shot, hitting slightly to the left of Lanbar on purpose. "Now yer in for it! Spar me, or you won't be spared! Har, har!"

Solon tucked his grappling hook under his belt again and made it to the final building. "Cannonball!" he shouted, tucking himself into a ball and jumping inside. It took himself a couple seconds to recover from the fall, then he grabbed the edge of the dumpster and propelled himself out. After his eye's adjusted, he noticed Jason out cold.

"Hmm... Anyone have any smelling salts?" he asked, scratching his chin. "We'll just have to-" Solon stopped mid-sentence as he felt around in his pocket. He pulled out the paper he was supposed to put in the mail. 'Getting out of here safely is definitely our biggest priority... But we need a reason to go to Monte Island. And a cover up for once were settled in again.' Solon thought, trying to get his priorities in check before he made a decision. But that was enough for him to decide.

"Grab some cold water and splash it on his face," Solon said, referring to Jason. "Get on the ship. If I'm not back in time, just go on without me." Then Solon dashed away, tightly holding the form in his fist.

[Kierou]

Riou quickly put his fist in the captain's face, knocking him to the ground, but not knocking him out.
"Listen up Cap'. You don't use something that slow to fight someone with ninja training."

[Shujinco2]

Shu was absolutly confused. Who was this random man with this cannon. This had happened so suddenly!

"What the-?"

All of a sudden, the man who he was following just walloped the pirate. Shu thought it impressive. He looked kinda big.

Then he heard 'Listen up Cap'. You don't use something that slow to fight someone with ninja training.'

"Wha? YOU HAVE NINJA TRAINING?! AWESOME!"

((Crap... I wasn't paying attention.))

[THEBIRD]

The captain got back up slowly and began laughing. He took off his black coat, his black hat, his shoes, and his gloves, leaving only himself in a black jumpsuit. He proved to have muscle, and wasn't nearly as old as thought to be. A long scar went down from the top of his forehead to the bottom of his chin, going diagonally across his left eye and lip. His hair was long and white, kept in a ponytail.

"There's more to everyone then what meets the eye, kid," the captain said, dropping the accent. His voice sounded like a deep growl. "Well, c'mon kid, give me your best shot."

(( Just remember this time you can't be sure a shot hits, give the captain a chance to dodge. He's not THAT old =P ))

[Light]

Harver quickly jumped across the buildings, and landed in the dumpsters safely, only to see Solon quickly running away. "Where the hell does he think he's going alone?" He asked, more to himself than to anyone else. He hastily propelled himself out of the dumpster, and ran in Solon's direction.

[Anarchy_Jas]

Jas balls her right hand into a fist, then opens it. "Way better than cold water right here," she smirks as the snowball in her hand continues to form. After it becomes slightly bigger than a snowball, she whips it at Jason's face.

Then a blur of red passes her. "What the hell, Harver!?" Jas snaps her fingers, and flames erupt in the redhead's path. "Get back here!"

[Light]

Harver skidded to a stop, looking in awe at the flames before him. He turned around to Jas. "You think I'm just going to let him go off on his own like that? The chances of him running into a band of pirates with his terrible sense of directions are higher without me than with!"

[Max Headroom]

"We should head to the ship, as Solon said." Mira said. "If we have to, I'll carry him over."

[jnfs2014]

"No, thank-you," Jason muttered, his eyes finally opening. "Ugh, I wasn't cut out to be a ninja."

[Anarchy_Jas]

"True," Jas says, keeping the wall of flames ablaze. "Solon has a high chance of running into a pirate, but we can't risk them seeing more than one of us. And to make things worse, we have a man down and dazed here. Fighting and watching someone else's back would be a pain in the ass with just two."

[jnfs2014]

"I'll be fine," Jason replied, standing up. He almost fell down again, but caught his balance.

[Max Headroom]

"We've got to get to the ship!" Mira said, summarizing what he said earlier. "If we wanted to simply hide, we could of done so back at Solon's place, but right now, we're trying to accomplish something. Do you remember what that letter said about getting to the ship?" Mira asked, annoyed about Jas' evaluation of the situation. "Moving and watching are two different things. If we have to give him a moment, we can, but staying put isn't a part of the plan. If we wait too long, the pirates will get  back to their ship, possibly taking Solon's life along with them. What's a band with only one member, right?"

[Anarchy_Jas]

"I know that we need to get to the ship," Jas grits her teeth and turns towards that direction. "But it doesn't help if everyone tries to split off. Now come on," she douses the fire with an ice spell, and starts running again, taking the lead.
