"Where do you think you're...."  The long armed man started, confused by the woman's back being to him, and then he understood.  It came like a lightning bolt, made out of water, that shot up from his chest instead of down from the heavens.  He wanted to curse her, but didn't get the chance.  The most he could do before  the smaller woman's attack sent his partner flying into him, and then forcing them through a nearby wall, was take a quick, shallow breath.  Not that it did him any good, as once the smaller man, with the guns smashed into him, all the air was driven out.

The veteran marine cursed himself as he watched the boat move away from them.  As quick as they fell, everything seemed to move in slow motion.  His mind raced for a way to counter attack, but the fruit's activity was weird, and he couldn't quite put his finger on it.  Without that knowledge, he could do nothing more than suck in as much breath as his slow moving body could manage, and hope he was rescued before he drowned.

He hit the water, and despite the urge to splash, simply froze and felt himself quickly pulled under.  As best the old man could, he held on to consciousness, but that didn't last long.  Sooner, rather than later, things got dim.  They turned dark.  Finally, it all ended with the world going black.

The two marines never stood a chance.  The sniper managed to get off a single shot, but that was after the counter attack began.  The first shot threw off his aim,, leaving his projectile to go wide, very wide, and harmlessly fly into the sky until it hit a bird, which died and fell into the sea, unnoticed by the nearby combatants.  The rest of the bullets cut through them like crap through a moose.  Each one finding its mark, leaving the duo incapable of doing anything more than weakly cling to life, and even that they couldn't manage for more than a few seconds.

"Come in?"  Captain Arceus shouted into his transponder snail.  "Come in?  Does anyone here me?  This is Captain Arceus of the Marines.  We're under attack by pirates.  Repeat, we're under attack by...."  There was a loud bop.  The man paused, and blinked.  His head felt wet.  With a trembling finger he touched his face and looked at the blood. Another bop.  This time he went down.

Standing behind the captain was Tim, with a club in his hands.  Standing behind Tim, was Mark, with his hands on his hips.  He gave a low whistle.  "Not bad, kid, but next time knock him out with one, because you never want to give'em a chance to counter."

Pale, and visibly shaken Tim gave a short nod, before dropping the club.  "Yes, sir.  I'll do better, next time."  He swallowed hard and nodded again, just to make sure.

"Not a problem."  Mark said with a shrug.  "Let's just get the man's clothes, set up really quickly, and head on back to the ship."  Tim didn't reply with anything more than another nod.

There was a crack from the ground besides the duo, and a familiar looking white face slowly pushed through the floor like a plant that doesn't understand the meaning of the phrase 'you can't grow here' or does and just doesn't give a damn.  Once he was fully out, The man was huge, and pale, easily towering over the other young women, he gave a lop sided smile before his eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he collapsed.

"Well, that was fun."  Abbygail called from below the hole, as her small hands appeared to pull herself up.  "He"  She thumbed her thumb at the large albino on the ground, who was breathing somewhat shallowly. "Gave me a real work out."  She paused and looked around.  "What happened with your guys?"  

Before either could say anything, the boat shook, and alarms, a different type, meant to establish that this was an emergency as opposed to merely an attack began sounding off.  A voice from the speakers frantically told everyone to get to the life boats.
