Gunshots echoed through the halls of the pirates' ship. John stayed hidden in a shadowy hallway as several armed men ran past. [i]Probably headed towards those shots, and if I was a betting man, I'd say the target is our lost man.[/i] Another group of guards ran past, though this time the mercenary didn't let them pass. The closest one head his throat slit before the next two were stabbed with John's machete. [color=ed1c24]"Watch where you're going next time, will ya'?"[/color] he said as stared at the bodies that lay at his feet. John then rushed through the halls for the ship, following the familiar sounds of battle.

[color=ed1c24]"No need to fear, Killjoy is here!"[/color] the helmeted mercenary shouted as he rolled into the corridor that Jaydaar had found himself pinned in. With a few well-placed shots, the pirates in the immediate vicinity were taken out by the surprise appearance of John and the bipedal-lizard that was Jaydaar. [color=ed1c24]"Alright, now that that's been dealt with, I say we go find the captain of this large band of imbeciles and get some good ol' fashion pay back. What do ya' say, Lizard-face?"[/color] John said as he holstered his handguns after checking his ammo count. He was going to need to restock on .45 caliber rounds after this was over.
