Captain Tamerlane, arriving in the cover of darkness, prepared his attack on Port Royal. He got him and his mn ready and sent about 500 into the port. Captain Tamerlane controls 3 pirate ships with about 200 men on each. It's one of the biggest pirate fleets ever known. The other 100 men were left on the ships to man the cannons. Then, cannon fire broke the still ness of the night air crumbling a few buildings and leaving holes in the fort. Cannon after cannon desroyed buildins and british ships. By the time the men had reached the port, most of the ships were either sunk or could not be boarded by the british troops.
" This port should be easy enough to take" he said.

Mike, upon hearing the cannon fire, rushed out of the bar to see a sight in which he had seen before but not from this angle, rather from in the row boats coming to land."Hmmm...this could be a good chance to test out my new weapon...Well, better go see the Commodore to see if I can get any pay out of this." Mike ran to the fortress as fast as he could. He got inside the doors just before they shut and locked them, and he ran to the Commodore who was in his office giving orders to his captains. Mike burst in quite out of breath and startled all the inhabitants of the room."Who are you? And who let you in?" "Well...I am a mercenary...who you might need...at this time...I can help you fight...these guys...I have experience...and I would like...to get a little pay out...of this...because I am...a little short on money...at this time." Finally regaining whatever composure he had had before the run Mike continued to say..."I have skills and it looks as if you are going to need every man. If I die then you won't have to pay me but I garuntee that I will take down many men if I fall. If I survive I will kill many men of these invaders and I wish to help you fight off these invaders. Well, what do you say?" "Alright. I will pay you once the battle is over, now get out there and fight!" "Do I have your word?" Mike said cautiously."Yes sir, you have my word." "Thank you! I'll see you after the battle." And with those last words Mike took off out of the office and readied his blades for action.HEY KRONE! Good to see another thread started. Finally some action in POTC! lol. This is a new character. I'm about to go put his Bio up in Hist. of your Character.

Captain Tamerlane, staring at his 500 men as they entered the city killing ruthlessly, under his command., was having fun. If he took Port Royal, and raided, his men would be rich! He noticed a burly man exiting the fortress, killing his men easily. He could not allow this. He quikcly got him and 20 more men on a boat, and sailed quickly to the port. On his way there he was yelling directions.
" AIM FOR THE FORT!!! CRUMBLE IT TO THE GROUND!!!!" he yelled.
As he and his men got on land, he saw 3 more pirate ships enter the harbor. It was a trusted ally of his, Captain Borris, with his men. Finally, he thought, I thought theyd never get here. Captain Tamerlane approached the man and said.
" You are killing too many of my men, so I will need to kill you now. No guns, just swords." he said

(I dun' care how historically inaccurate this is... I want to be a female naval officer. ) Admiral Eliza Bennings is in the room with the commodore when Mike dashes in and makes his odd proposal. She watches his little charade with no expression, and gives only a small smile when he sprints out again. Commdore, she says, Perhaps it would wise to send someone to oversee this man's commanding attempts? He is a mercenary, after all. Only a small twitch at the corner of her mouth shows her contempt for such men.
The commodore's expression shows his agreement. Yes... I think you ought to go down and supervise it. My trust is in you, Admiral! Eliza nods and exits, and waits until she is outside before groaning. She hadn't meant the commordore should send her. But, she will do her duty.
She finds Mike adjusting his rather odd weapon. Oy, mercenary! She says, this time not disguising her contempt. I'm your commanding officer here. Why, pray, are the men not yet rallied?

((Oi...I wasn't outside the fortress yet, but okay.))
Before leaving the fortress Mike had met the rather rude admiral and had told her that if she wanted the men rallied, that he couldn't do it because he had no idea where all of their men and also becuase he needed to get out there and actually stop some killing instead of having a conversation within the safety of the fortress.
"Well, that's good you say 'no guns' because I have none. I warn you though, it looks as if I have seen more seasons then you have so it'd be best you watch your step because I've been fighting most of my life boy. Well, I've warned you, good luck."
With to last words Mike continued to fight off the other pirates while waiting for his opponents answer. The entire time that Mike was fighting he never completely turned his back to the pirate, knowing from experience that you should never trust a pirate for they know no honor.

Eliza gets to work doing a bit of quick defense rallying, getting men to where they can protect the fort. The nerve of that mercenary, leaving the fort unguarded! Did he think that he was going to stop 1500 pirates singlehandedly?
She takes a position where she can watch the proceedings and step in when the mercenary is blown away. This ought to be interesting; Tamerlane is feared all over Port Royal.

Mike, realizing that he had given the pirate enough time to ready himself, walked straight up to the pirate and said to his face, while standing no more than a foot away from the pirate.
"Well, are you ready to fight? Or should I just kill you and get it over with, pirate?"

He stared at Mike.
" Do not give me that attitude. I'd rather be judged by the tip of my sword than my acts." he said
And the fight began.

Mike stepped back in preparation for the first attack and said...
"Actions speak louder than words. Whether they speak louder than blade tips we'll just have to find out..."
Mike jumped forward swingin his left arm out at Tamerlane. While swinging his arm toward his opponent, Mike moved his swiftly in an effort to sweep Tamerlane's legs from underneathe him.

Tamerlane stands stil and makes a judgement of his opponent.
" Well, you know what your doing, I'll grant you that. Let's see your footwork. I step here and...good...as he moves to the left. Now I step to the right...and good...Now then, let's get this started.
Tamerlane jabbed at him and metal clanged.

((Ummm...first of all, did you read my post? I already attacked you bro. lol. Secondly, are you Captain Tamerlane or Captain Jack Sparrow? Listen, I know that Sparrow was a sweet character and I think it's fine to model your character after him but...do you have to quote him? lol. I'll reply to your attack but repeat my previous one, please read and respond accordingly ) Mike blocked Tamerlane's sword blow with relative ease. 'He insults me by simply giving a normal thrust. Maybe I should wake him up' Mike thought. With that thought just leaving his mind, Mike jumped forward swingin his left arm out at Tamerlane. While swinging his arm toward his opponent, Mike moved his swiftly in an effort to sweep Tamerlane's legs from underneathe him.
