Without a Trace (A DMDTS Sequel)

[Max Headroom]

Mira verified Orlando's pulse, then proceeded to pinch the wounds shut, using energy to bind it shut and speed up the healing process.

[THEBIRD]

(( Actually yes, the cannon is still there. ))

Parry got knocked back. As he stumbled, he noticed the captain had disappeared. "Captain?" Parry yelled, suddenly sobering up. "RETREAT!" Parry suddenly screamed. He saw a small bit of powder where the captain had last been standing, and Shu was the only person near it. "That kid got at the captain!" Some more pirates ran by, noticing Shu, the cannon, and the bit of powder showing the captain had retreated. "C'MON BOYS!" Parry continued yelling. "AFTER THAT LIL' RAT!" Soon, the pirates had encircled the cannon and Shu.

"It's nothing much," Solon shrugged. "Might need to be sewn up, but we can save that for a later date." He paused for a second before deciding to relay the little bit of information he found out to Harver. "You know that guy we pulled out of the water? I think he's a pirate. Probably an ex-pirate, since we found him wounded in the water near the boat. We should be careful around him. But maybe if we play our cards right, he could join our side, and drive this boat!" And then Solon remembered the guy who had helped him. "And then there's the guy who saved me. Riou. I don't know if he'll be staying with us or not... Might as well, to get away from these no-good pirates. But we're going to have to clear the air eventually."

Without warning, Orlando's eyes suddenly shot open. "Guh," was all he could get out, followed by a coughing fit. Some water came out of his mouth, and then he appeared weak, but healed. He looked around, and immediately recognized he was on the ship. "What, did you scumbags realize you need me after all?" he asked, standing up. But when he noticed Mira and Riou he said, "Oh. Who the hell are you?"

[Kierou]

"We, along with Solon, are the people who saved your life, ya bloody twit. Yes, I do believe I'll be taking you up on that offer." Riou said.

[THEBIRD]

"Hm," was all Orlando said. He noticed his wounds seemed to be closed up. "You have a healer," he finally pointed out, rather bluntly. Then, he sighed and said, "So I've been kicked out for good, is that it?" His voice sounded disappointed, but a smile appeared on his face. "Good. Well then, thank you for the help. I'll be getting off this bloody ship now and taking back what's rightfully mine."

[Max Headroom]

"Your pride?" Mira asked quickly. "But seriously, since they kicked you out of the crew, you don't care what happens to this ship, do you?"

[Anarchy_Jas]

"Or," Jas speaks up, arms folded once again. "He could repay us by steering this ship outta here. Makes sense."

[THEBIRD]

Solon followed the others into the cellar below. "So this is the guy I saved?" Solon asked, looking him up and down.

"It's Wolfe," Orlando said, giving them his pirate nickname. He looked at them all keenly. "Hm, what is this? Some sort of pirate trade-off? The boat for some of your land in Sans Port?"

"No," Solon replied. "We're stealing this boat. We're on an important mission. The pirates are our enemies, too. If you join up with us, maybe you can get your revenge."

Wolfe looked around the cellar, his eyes settling on Mira. "The 'Healer'. What a useful skill." But he said nothing more that seemed to move their topic of discussion forward.

Roy turned a corner and found a group of pirates surrounding a boy standind next to a cannon.
Well, you've done dumber things in your life...  "Hey!  Are you the bloody good-for-nothing pirates the cause of this nonsense?"

Run, kid.

[Anarchy_Jas]

Jas smirks in response to Orlando's reply. "Don't avoid the subject," she looks up towards the deck. "There ain't no time for bullpoop... We can always throw your ass back out." Maybe she was being a bit irrational, but it's not her fault. They don't know how much time they have before the pirates return, so why waste the unknown time they do have?

[Max Headroom]

"Someone should go check out for the pirates." Mira said, keeping his eye on Orlando.

[THEBIRD]

"No need," Orlando replied, shrugging. "I know how to run this bloody ship." Without another word he walked out of the cellar and straight to the "cockpit", as he called it. Orlando stood there, smiling slightly. He touched the wooden wheel, ready to begin its journey. 'Look who's captain now,' Orlando thought, thinking of the captain, the captain who tried to murder him but could not. "I'm invincible, you sorry son of a ninny," Orlando whispered. "I'm invincible, and I'm coming for you."
---
Solon watched Orlando go. "Wolfe..." he said out loud, remembering the name. Then he realized the pirate didn't know where they were headed. "I'll deal with the new guy. You guys should search this place, I bet it's filled to the brim with rum and weapons!"
---
The pirates all looked towards Roy. There were eight of them, so four quickly ran toward him, pulling out their guns and knives. "Har, har, har," they all laughed. "Yer in for it now."

"STOP!" came a yell from a few feet away. "You bloody idiots! Stop slacking off!" It was the captain. When the pirates realized this, they all ran toward him in obedience and fear. "Our ship is bein' stolen you bloody idiots!" The captain looked towards Roy and Shu. "You can keep the cannon," he said. "We have plenty more where that came from. And be this yer lucky day! Har, har! Survivin' the cap'an's mighty wrath!" And with that, the captain led all the pirates forward, running toward the boat.

[Max Headroom]

Yay! Mira took this time to search the room for weapons that might be of interest to him... As well as equipment that he might find useful.

[Eizweir]

Roy runs toward Shu as soon as he saw the opening. 

"Hey, kid!  Is that cannon ready to go, get them while their backs are turned!" Roy yelled, hopefully out of the pirate's earshot.
Wha a rush, it's almost like a high, one that you've been missing for years.

[THEBIRD]

There was a rack with a couple dozen different few swords and guns. Other then that, there were hundreds of boxes filled with rum.

[Max Headroom]

Mira went to try unsheathing each sword, testing its weight at the same time. When he found the one that he liked, he looked through the guns and picked up on that appeared to have been used the least - hopefully with little to no bullets used.
