WORDS: 350 | Water Lily


“No, no… Marinaaaa, it's not a sword~?” The belle of the beach for sure but right now those emerald eyes only having time for the small souls she minded before her, though Sofia Serena was likely to be turning heads as she shifted herself around the sand in a two piece and summer hat right now she was for more interested in the activity of her darling daughter than any who might linger and leer nearby, and left to giggle as she watched one of her children swing a plastic spade about like she was looking to slay a demon.
“I swear, you both take after Lisa more and more every day, hm?” In truth only seeming to succeed in turning the head of a sibling who at the age of a year old looked like she had already seen everything presented before her a thousand times before, the siren could only smile as she dipped down and disarmed the more disastrous of the duo before pulling them both into a hug, and as she did so had a little more time to focus on the scene around her. Which, sadly, seemed to immediately grow more concerning.

What in the…? Only a matter of moments before the place seeming to sing with the sound of laughter and youngsters giggling among themselves but now the only sound that suffused the place the silence and the screams of gulls, that green gaze of the girl darted around as she tried to see why the sense of fun which had echoed and abounded had been stifled all too sudden, and as she spied something black dancing atop canvas on the horizon only too quickly realized why.
I suppose it was only a matter of time, wasn't it? Clicking her tongue and shaking her head as she spied the sight of a pirate ship loitering on the horizon with a sense of obvious intent, the emerald eyes of the enchantress seemed to tighten as her smile turned to a scowl and she squeezed her little wonders close, and then brought her fingers to her forehead to vanish. Though, not without every intention of returning once she was sure that her girls were safe, of course…

Hargeon really is a nice, peaceful place. Beaches packed full of fine sand, a typically very sunny weather, warm, relaxing. The exact type of thing that the man from the land of ice had come to enjoy. It was always a fun, neat escape from the pains of life, the invasive thoughts, the regrets, troubles and responsibilities. It was just a fine way to let himself rest. Rest.. yes.. Totally rest the entire time, not having anything to trouble him. Nothing like the sudden, unsettling silence in the beach and the screaming, disturbed gulls.

Right. There was fuckery afoot and he had to at least see what it was all about. Suddenly, what was once a simple bucket atop of the sand moved around, showing two black holes that fit neatly on top of the ‘object’, moving about much like eyes. Eyes that were quick to spot the flag approaching the harbor, making it very obvious and clear what the actual problem was. Pirates. Those nasty fuckers were here to cause problems again and someone had to go deal with it. Someone that, as far as he knew, would have to be himself.

Even if the fleet kinda looks a bit too big right now. He hadn’t seen one this big before..

“Not one day can I get a break, assholes!” From around the bucket, the sand stirred quite violently as a huge, burly body climbed out of it, the man stretching his whole body after taking that sand nap that he had just been ripped out of. And not just the ‘arms raised’ stretches. He did his back, his hips, his legs, shoulders, neck, fingers n’ toes. Once every corner of his body was up and running, he first took a little look at the empty beach, save for himself, two kids and their, presumably, mother. Who also gave his gut the harshest sinking feeling in his life, like he was staring at the embodiment of danger.

Probably a mage. Nah, definitely a mage. Calming his nerves, the huge man actually spoke to her. “Ya.. going to take those guys? I can help. An' er.. sorry for swearing around the kids.” Bucket offered, ignoring or forgetting at that moment that he’s still a muscle-bound, tall middle-aged man with a cursed head and not, as he saw himself as, a perfectly normal and trustworthy guy.

WORDS: 500 | Shiver Me Timbers!


Gosh… Back and forth so fast really makes me woozy, doesn't it? The cherished children passed to parties who were responsible enough to offer protection and know the fear they should feel in failure, fresh from a warning and a round trip of instant transmission Miss Serena found herself standing at the top of azure beach and found the horizon spinning around her a little as she did so, though she shook her head to drive away the feeling of disorientation she felt as she saw the sand seeming to be becoming swamped with souls who looked onto too angry at any opposition they might have faced.
No time to worry now, though…! For that reason the fair fox holding up an odd little key and twisting it to activate what was her greatest form of time saver magic, all too rapidly did the brunette become a beacon for all as her bikini clad body was engulfed in brightness which seemed to tear away both the two piece she was wearing and the hat which had once rested in its place, and after a moment of scintillating and light-censored exposure returned to the new battlefield with a whole new ensemble.

They'll pay for this, I swear…! Perhaps this change to her battle dress also seeming to reflect a revision to her mood that these ocean born ravagers had inspired as well, the feisty fox balled her fists tightly before pulling something smooth and silvery from her waist, and then set off into the fight with all the Amazonian aptness that one might have expected from a woman who was married to the marvel known as Alisa Vollan.
“In the name of my children's ruined afternoon, I will punish you!” Sprinting forward and finding herself only too happy to vent the vexation she felt at losing a precious moment to dote on her darlings with both those mitts and the heels into which she had changed as well, those emerald eyes seemed to scan the shoreline and find a figure who looked like they might be in need of assistance, and so she gave it.

“Youuuuuu Bastaaaarrrrds!!!!!” Lurching into the air and unloading a powerhouse kick that sent a pirate skipping across the tide like a flat stone upon a lake, with the battle cry she raised, Sofia more than seemed to assure any party that she was more than down to clown when it came to bad language now that her beloved bambinos were out of earshot, but was only just getting started really.
“A woman's time with her babies is oh so precious!” Snarling in a fashion which would have been oh too menacing had she not possessed the slim and sublime frame of a girl in her late teens but more than making up for that with what she did next, the air itself seemed to howl for a moment as a pair of golden blades erupted from either end the sceptre she had been sporting, and then she set to work with it and a heart sense of gusto as well. Happy, was she, to conduct a little concerto here after the loss she felt…

Weird. Coulda sworn that he heard kids playing close by where he was laying. Shit, he could even swear that he had seen the mother as he popped out of the sand, only to be gone as he was talking to them. Even though his head is mildly light reflective, it seems that still having it in direct sunlight for a few hours can still cook your brain. It also meant his ass was completely alone when faced with the pirate ships that were starting to dock, those scallywag, unwashed fiends pouring out, screaming about random shit related to money and hostages. Par for the course sure but this was.. a lot more than he was ready for. Or able to fight. Plans would have to be drawn out to at least try to help the city and yet, no ideas were coming to his mind.

Then that same woman came back, not only proving that he wasn’t going insane, but also putting on a show by yelling angrily about motherhood at the same time she buried her feet in the skulls of a few men. Bucket could have sworn he saw a few of them smile as they were kicked. He tried not to dwell on the implications and, instead, turned his attention to the ships.

Pirates: stupid as bricks when loot is at hand. Also, understaffed as all hell, as the same guys that maintained the ship were still the same to fight. So there was a fun idea he had! First, he looked around the battlefield, through the piles of corpses, taking two bandanas. Enough to cover his face and head, to make him look more normal. Then, he grabbed a random guy that was still groaning, slinging him over his shoulder.

This is where the fun begins.

Carrying him on his shoulder quite easily, Bucket began running towards the ships, yelling out at the invading men to ‘make way’ as the ever heroic giant who looked and sounded just like a pirate carried one of their injured towards the ship. Nothing wrong or suspicious about that, just one of their bigger guys rescuing someone. In the chaos of battle, people don’t give things much thought, which was exactly what he needed to get inside one of the bigger ships.

Once he was safely on it, he first found a spot that wasn’t watched and unceremoniously dropped the injured fool into the water, since he didn’t need useless burdens. Then, he moved to the opposite edge where he could look at the beach, just to make sure that his golden goose – golden mother to be precise – was still raising hell, attracting the hell to her and keeping it away from him.

WORDS: 400 | Shiver Me Timbers!


Here I was hoping these guys would give up after out little adventure…? The beauty on the beach more than happy to play the role of decoy even if she wasn't entirely or at all aware of the fact that she was doing it, the weapon she carried seemed to hum with delight as she drew it back and sent it spinning in an arc front of her like a whirling frisbee of destruction with the strength of her arm alone, and then pulled it back to her hand through the use of a little drop of her mana once she saw a nice number of her enemies dropping to the ground and let their groans echo through the beach.
If only they were more like our old friend Captain Scott and his cronies~ All the while reminded of the little jaunt that she had taken with her lady wife across the southern seas and the young rogue they had met during their adventures doing so, Sofia couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment in the fact that she had her mind changed a little by the presence of a captain and a crew who had seemed to defy the 'precedent' these creeps were whole heartedly living up to, and saw her longing to see more who seemed to focus on the fun and freedom the sea offered them rather than the promise of reaving and reward.

Wishful thinking, I suppose? A slow sigh escaping the lips of Miss Serena because of that fact and seeming to only reinforce the show of brutality she gave the number massing around her, while it would have been easy for her to activate a spell or even assume her winged form and skate over to the ship from whence these idiots came she was happier to make an example of them, both for their own good and the sense of their 'breed' as a whole.
The very least I can do is remind them that only nice pirates are welcome in Hargeon, hm~? For that reason twirling her weapon around and seeming to cleave through soul after soul as effortlessly as if she was dancing with them, after a few more lost limbs and pained moans her free hand became a claw which seemed to summon a serpent from the tide itself, and send it sprawling across the sand with every intention of ruining whatever brigand it found within its path. Chasing them down like a dragon, and only too happy to tear through them up as well…

Bucket
The ship he had seen that was closest to the docks, this big ole’ ship.. he had stared at it with longing, with a VERY strong desire to do whatever the hell he wanted with it.. he had quite the explosive plan and now that he was in the ship, no one could stop him. Not disguised as he is, anyway! So, he moved slowly towards the lower levels, where the cannons would usually be situated. Where there’s cannons, there’s ammunition and a whole fuckton of that nice, amazing black powder that he so loved.

Lo and behold, there it was. Not that it was a question if it would be there, after all, where else would it be? Knowing that if he was to do this plan, he’d need to at least get to a slightly safe distance, he grabbed the nearest rags he could, which here his bandanas, sighing as he finally got a whiff of fresh air. Greasy as these fuckin things were, it was quite easy to light up the rags with the flint they had nearby that usually would light the cannons. Bingo presto, the rags were now slowly burning.

Then, he stabbed a small hole into one of the black powder barrels and let it leak slowly. The theory was that, as it slowly piled down, more and more powder would trickle further: which would trickle yes, closer and closer to the rags. Dumping his old shirt in there too to make sure it burnt for longer, Bucket ran right out of there, hopping off board and onto the docks, laughing like a wild maniac as, suddenly, the ship was shaken by an explosion, going up in flames!

Little did he know, a bigger ship was being revealed behind that one, which might just be.. problematic for him.

WORDS: 300 | Shiver Me Timbers!


My word…! A hard kick to the jaw seeming to create a wonderful crunch and send the last of their belligerent beachgoers flying, Miss Serena let loose a slow breath to steady herself after a short but rather intense battle and then rolled that green gaze over to the nest where these bilge rats had emerged from, only to see it erupt from the inside out with flames but a moment later.
I suppose that's one way to deal with it, hm~? Tilting her head a little at the unexpected development and wondering just what had occurred to set off such an explosive draught of flame, for a second the brunette wondered if the brutish brigands had been caught in a rather fortunate accident when it came to their guns, but not for long as that keen iris in her right eye picked up the sight of someone seeming to throw themselves onto the docks nearby and start to howl with laugher as well.

“Looks like that's the little guy taken care of~” The fair femme found impressed frankly that someone would be so reckless as to board a pirate ship but certainly not arguing with the results, in an instant Sofia had touched her forehead again and closed the distance between herself and rash stranger who had sunk the ship, and offered out a gently playful sense of appreciation for what the man had done.
“Now, what about her big sister~?” Not failing to notice however that their job had only been half finished by what seemed to be lingering upon the horizon, with one ship burning the beryl eyed beauty could only tip her brow toward the second slew of would-be pillagers lurching over the horizon, and could feel her blood heating up as she did so. After all, the warm up was over, and now, it was time to get to the main event, right~?

Great success! That thing was down in flames and the remnants were desperate and getting quickly arrested and taken down, it was a big win for Bucket and his super awesome antics of sneakery, subterfuge and general mischief! There’s no way this could ever go wrong or come back to bite his arse! Nah, not like the very loud screaming and hollering from a much larger ship that’s quickly approaching the coast. Yeah.. that.. really wouldn’t come to bite him in the ass, yeah? Right. He’d need to do something about that, he just didn’t know what right yet. Thankfully, ideas and solutions just seem to come to him which was, obviously, a very welcome thing.

That woman. She definitely could teleport, as she popped into reality right in front of him, startling the older man who jumped back with a high-pitched yelp, putting himself in an exaggerated martial artist pose before he recovered from that big, terrible spook. He nodded proudly that he had done it, scoffing. “They couldn’t see past my disguise! All too easy, obviously.” He said, freezing when she mentioned the big ship again. For a few moments, he’d turn back to face it for a moment, ‘ponder’ then turned to her with a large smile on his jagged mouth. “Well, I have no magical capabilities and I am quite the old man.. spotlight’s yours, madame, have at them!”

He ‘let her’ take the lead out of the niceness of his heart and not, as one might think, cowardice born out of one’s self awareness of their limits and waved bye to her, running off into the town where the other people had run away to, where he’d be safe and not, as some might want him to, in the battlefield. Ain’t no place for old guys like him, nuh-uh!
