"Hold on.  Hold on."  Abbygail said, making wait a minute gestures with her hands.  "Let's not just go cutting people up all willie-nillie.  I mean, it's one thing to kill them if they're trying to poke you with their swords, or pencils, or anything else that doesn't belong inside the body, but it's one thing completely different to just stab them while they're naked, and tied up, and their eyes are so wide with fright, they're this close to popping out of their skulls like a pair of rats jumping ship.  Swordsman's pride, and all that, I'm assuming."  She put her hands on her hips and turned to look at the marines.  The men were nervous but hopefully nervous.  "We'll get near something, an island with people, or without, probably, and throw them on a life boat."

"Sure, you can do it that way."  The purple haired girl said with a smirk.  "But after downing a marine ship, the bounty is going to be pretty high.  There's not a place in the world you'll be able to stay without one money grubber or another who'll throw you to the wolves for a piece of you oh so sweet pie."  At that, Abbygail shuddered.  "Forget that last part.  It doesn't work with me."  She shrugged.  "Well at least nobody can accusing me of not trying."

Right!  Right!"  Mark said, clasping his hands together.  "I'm glad we're all in agreement then.  I'm going to hurry on over to the wheel, and angel us somewhere further away from the nearest marine bases, and hopefully we'll be able to get some distance before the marines start looking for us."  He nodded happily, paused and when there wasn't a response, turned to his first mate.  "As for you, make yourself useful and go get dinner started.  I'm sure our pirate friends are hungry now, after destroying a marine ship."  He didn't wait for a word before turning and walking away, with Tim, his second mate, pausing just long enough to look at the group and then going down towards the kitchen.

"I'm not going to attack."  Abbygail sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose after the newcomer's hands raised out of the barrel.  "I am going to question you though.  So get ready for that."

Abbygail arched an eyebrow at Janet.  "A friend of yours?"  She cocked her head in the direction of the newcomer.  



"Ladies and gentlemen."  Mark's voice rang out from the intercom.  "It looks like the marines were a bit faster than I figured they'd be as there seems to be some of ships heading our way.  Now, I'm not sure if they're here for us or just responding to the distress call, but I think it would be best for all of you to get below deck.  Get some grub in the kitchen or just hang out in your rooms till it's clear.  Whatever you do, just don't poke your heads out, because I have no desire to get my head chopped off with the lot of yous!"
