The sea was pretty calm as the ship rocked back and forth; it's been 1 week since we left Braavos. I miss Mom, Dad, Rhea, Lady D, Brother Louis, and above all, I miss having soil beneath my feet.
Brother Cedric has been teaching me a few shortcuts in the spells that I already know; now I can cast spells faster than ever. He also explained to me how to make a pact with a summon.
I also managed to impress the sailors with sparks at night. Although at first they were cold with us, after talking with them, they opened up to us; even the captain stopped looking at us with disdain.
In this 1 week I also learnt that Zorroquol came from summer's islands and that he was sent by his master to bring some stuff; he didn't elaborate on what, so Brother and I are a little bit suspicious of this whole thing. But for now we choose to play the game of ignorance.
We will make a pit stop at Tyrosh because the food was all consumed, and the sailors need to buy some more.
Brother and I were sitting in our beds planning, "Once we reach Tyrosh, we will look for what this ship is carrying on." Brother said from the top bunk.
"Yeah, I would like to know what they are carrying on too." I responded, getting up from my bed.
"Yeah, I know. Tomorrow will be a long day, so get some sleep." I closed my eyes and tried to let sleep take over; after an hour or so, I finally did.
"Jade!! Wake up!!" I was awoken by my brother shouting, "The ship is under attack!! Get ready quick!!" Brother ran towards the door and slammed it behind him.
I quickly rubbed my face and wore my top tunic. I took with me the 2 enchanted short swords and quickly followed my brother. I made sure that body reinforcement was active before all that.
I reached the deck in a matter of seconds, and what greeted me was people running around, blood and dead bodies on the ground, and also mayhem.
On each side of Baldwing were ships; the ship on the left was at least twice the size of Baldwing, while the one on the right was roughly the same size.
I looked around for Brother Cedric and saw that he was dealing with the one on the left; as soon as I saw that, I decided to head to the one on the right.
On my way to the ship, I saw 2 pirates killing some crew members. I dashed towards the one on the right and swung my left sword. The man's arm was cleanly chopped off, leaving his wound searing; some of his blood fell on my face whilst his right hand was rolling on the deck of the ship.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! You little bitch!! I will fucking kill youuuu!!!!!!!" Said the man while clutching his forearm, "You bastard!!! How dare you hurt one of us!!! I will end you!!!" The guy on the left then focused on me and aimed his sword at my head.
Seeing that it was either kill or be killed, I chose my life over his. As he closed the distance between us, I slashed with my right hand, aiming at his sword, and cut it like butter in his hand. Then I thrust my left hand at his leg; he fell down yelling and cursing.
I followed with a swing from my right-hand sword and neatly decapitated his head; there wasn't much blood jutting out, as the sword had a scorching enchantment.
But there was something about seeing a man's head roll off like that; it made me sick to the bones. However, I needed to move on, as more people will try to kill me if they see a moment of weakness. I can't dwell on the simple stuff like this; it will make me seem weak.
"You...YOU ARSEHOLE!!! I WILL KILL YOU!!" The man whose arm I cut off held a sword in his left hand, but before he could get up, I thrust my sword into his head, effectively removing him.
~~~~~~~~~(3rd pov) ~~~~~~~~~~
All those whom that face was directed to died, either with a spike piercing their head or a sword thrust into their face. All those crewmembers who saw what happened were mortified by the little boy, who was killing pirates left and right. As he was doing so with a calm look on his face that turned a man's blood cold with fright.
~~~~~~~~~ (Jade's Pov) ~~~~~~~~~~
I then jumped into the pirates boat and started a massacre; blood and corpses were littered everywhere, and there was a smell of shit and piss all around.
'How many people did I kill?? How many more are there?? ' I was thinking to myself while killing pirates one after another; it didn't take long after for me to finish my side, as the crew helped me subdue and kill the pirates.
As I set foot in Baldwing, there was a loud horn blare that resonated everywhere. "RETREAT!!!" Said a loud voice coming from the big ship, as they unfolded the sails and tried to run away, but to no avail, as their brother was on their ship.
Well, those people are as good as dead. Brother summoned a storm atronach, which set the sails on fire as well as killed all the pirates on the ship.
It was hell on the pirate's ship; there was blood everywhere and the smell of shit and piss mixed with the smell of burnt blood and corpses. It was a disgusting odour that I wish I would never wish to smell again.
"I am tired; tell Brother that I am off to sleep." I told one of the sailors, who shook his head up and down vigorously. I then entered the crew's cabin and went directly to the bucket to take it back to our designated room, where I unleashed all my meals of the day.
