The Charming Captain (Tag: Esmerelda) (Mature)

Edward nods "Indeed, though I really despise cold nights. Reminds me when I would have a beautiful redhead at my side through the nights" he says as he smiles. He leaves with Esmerelda as he shows her to the pier and his ship. His ship was of average size, but the firepower on it told truth of what it could take along with how tough the crew is and the armor of the ship. From the gangplank a pirate walks down as he chuckles "Captain, good to see you" he says. Edward smiles "Miss Esmerelda, allow me to introduce you to my quartermaster Adéwalé " he says as the man bows.

Edward walks on board "Lads! Get off your asses! We go to raid!" he calls out as the crew cheers and gets the sails ready. He smiles "We got a new member today, Miss Esmerelda" he says as she already got some looks from the crew as if they wanted to have fun with her "Now don't think anything boys. She's mainly here to help with the haul as a guest, so nothing funny... unless she wants to" he says. The ship pulls from harbor and starts to sail into open waters.

Edward looks at her "Nope, though it be a treat to see a female pirate. Most of the women we meet are bar wenches, witch doctors, voodoo girls, and harlots" he says as one such harlot comes from Adewale's quarters. Edward chuckles "Adewale, you sneaky man" he says as Adewale walks back in with her. After a few minutes of sailing, a member starts to sing a shanty called 'Randy Dandy Shanty'

Edward chuckles "Sleep where you like, most of us do anyway. Brig, my cabin, heck even in the cool air" he says. He motions for the ship to stop as he takes out a spyglass. He grins as he looks at where a large figure is. He hands it to Esmerelda "Spanish ship, Galleon class, large crew and a lot of supplies" he says as fog hides the Jackdaw as they wait.

Edward chuckles "Only the women may sleep in my cabin." he says. He looks around "Alright lads! Prepare for a fight!" he says as he looks over the front of his ship to see his ship has a part of it extended, like that extension was put their like a ram. He motions for them to go slowly as they get close to the ship "Fire!" he yells as cannonballs on fire are shot and start to destroy many of the armaments on the ship. Men stand on swivel cannons and fire at the enemy crew and weakpoints, leaving one swivel open for Esmerelda to join in firing.

One of the Spaniards aims to shoot as Edward shoots him with a pistol. His coat now open showing him holding four flintlock pistols on his person. He orders a shot be fired as regular cannonballs are shot. He raises a hand and ceases fire as grappling hooks are sent and start to drag the boats close. Like a shadow, Edward is on a rope as he swings over and delvs his two swords into two people. He brings them out and like a gust of wind seems to counter and cut down Spaniard after Spaniard that came at him. From below a large six foot tall Spaniard with a axe stands as he grabs one of his hands and headbutts Edward back.

Four men take aim as each of them gets shot and fall as Edward holsters his guns. The others surrender when he kills the captain and they take all the loot. After sailing some distance away, the men load a cannonball and aim it right at the enemy ship. They light a match and give it to Esmerelda "Do the honors of starting their final farewell?" he asks.
