The vibrant marketplace bustled with people. Achroite waved at the women, and stared without their knowing. He often trailed off to talk to strangers.
Rhodonite caught up with Peacock, "We can go to the tavern now if you want."

Auros and Captain Obsidian stepped straight off the ship and saw the whole city of Port Royal at twilight. The torches that hung from the familiar gallows belched smoke into the orange-tinted evening.
"Ah, Port Royal. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy," Auros laughed.
"Where did you hear that?" asked Obsidian.
"Heard it somewhere, but I can't recall where, for the life of me."
They continued walking straight ahead, until they noticed a tavern whose signboard shows chiseled, shirtless young men sharing beers and winks with scantily-clad barmaids. Inside there were silhouettes of mostly men (and a few women) carousing.
Auros turned to Obsidian:
"Wanna get fucked up?"
(Kudos if you can catch the two references. First person to get them both right gets a cookie.)

Suddenly the dark figure immerged from an alley way, he threw a pebble at Rhodite and hid.
Rhodite went to go investigate , leaving Peacock alone
As Rhodite trailed off Peacock awkwardly stood in place. She kicked rocks around and hummed, meanwhile the shady figure noticed Rhodite was gone so he went ever closer to Peacock.
Once he was right behind her he grew a joyful expression on his face and lightly tapped her on the shoulder, his warm breath massaged the back of her head.
Peacock turned around to see the towering figure infront of her, his face was obscured by a metal mask with the only holes being the mouth and eyes, leaving the rest to her imagination.
"Aren't you a cute little thing? What's a gentle little angel like you doing here?"
The figure said, his chuckles and heavy breathing echoed through his mask.
Peacock didn't know how to respond, she was uneasy and uncomfortable around this figure.
"Ummm... I'm j-just taking a break from my ship duties."
The figure suddenly put his hand around Peacock and pointed to his ship.
"That makes TwO of us sweetie. You see, I'm a Captain of a little death vessel and I'm looking for some new recruits.."
He said as he glided his finger up Peacock's body.
Peacock roughly pushed him onto the ground.
"I'm not interested..." She said boldly.
The figure stuck out his tounge and raspberryed and then he melted away into a puddle and scattered away.
Peacock was confused by the whole situation and was surprised to see Rhodite again.
"O-okay, lets go." She said while looking around for the figure.

Mercy kept an eye on Achro and Smoky as she shopped. She looked around, scroll list in hand and Sol by her side.
She gathered some fruits, vegetable and more spices, as well as some herbals and medicines. Then she moved onto the meats, breads and more base ingredients, like honey and flour. She spoke quietly to her pet as she checked off the items on her list slowly.
"Man, there are tons of good deals here, Sol. Look at how much we got for those prices." They walked around some more, stopping under a tree near the marketplace.

Rhodonite walked with Peacock into the grizzly tavern; it's walls were decorated with animal skins and swords. The men inside spoke with croaky voices. You could smell the alcohol on their breath.
Achroite dropped the boxes with a thunk, and grabbed an apple for himself. He bit into it viciously.

Smoky did most the heavy lifting, he carried the heavier grociers on his shoulders.
Nothing really caught his eye in this market. Not until he saw a small dark weopon shop, he dropped the groceries near Mercy and made a run for the store.
"I'LL BE RIGHT BACK!" He yelled.
Once Smoky was inside the store he noticed the weapons on display, scabbards ingraved with ancient text, daggers of all shapes and sizes, but what attracted Smoky the most was a dark steel Buster sword, it's edges were full of scratches and cracks all varying in depth and size.
"Nice sword, is it not?"
The shopekeeper said, noticing Smoky's fondness of the sword. The shopkeeper had a veil over her face, only her bright, multicolored eyes could be seen through it.
"Yes it is, which is why I want it."
The shopkeepers chuckled, she leaned back in her chair and pulled up her book.
"An antique such as that is not for sale." She said.
Smoky slammed a table infront of her and looked her dead in the eyes.
"Name your price! RIGHT NOW."
This surprised the shopkeeper, she fell backwards out of her chair onto the ground.
Smoky immediately went from serious to laughing hysterically from the Shopkeeper's fall.
Smoky's laughing was cut short as a dark figure entered the store. He scratched the rust off his this face and went up to where Smoky and the shopkeeper were.
The shopkeeper dusted herself off while eyeballing smoky
"You will rue this day you wrech!" She said to smoky, before she could talk to the figure he quickly wrapped his arm around her neck and punched Smoky into a nearby wall.
"I would normally say this is a robbery but I'm honestly just doing this for the THRILL..." He said as he slowly raised her upward before chokeslaming her into the ground.
Smoky endured the blow but was still pushed back from the punch, he grabbed the Buster sword and struck it into the figure's neck.
The sword barely punctured the figure's skin, Smoky then fell down onto the ground and backed up.
"Seriously? I should have told you I have naturally thick skin.."
Smoky got back up and cracked his knuckles. "That's bull, that blade was just dull."
Smoky then swang his hand into the target's side and ripped the sword out. Smoky then picked the figure up with his super strength and plunged him into the dagger section of the store.
The figure was impaled with several daggers from the attack yet, he was calm.
"Finders keepers! And I'm keeping all these blades in my back." The figure said gleefully before he skipped out the store like a child.
"Yeah! You better leave!" Smoky yelled at the figure's to no effect.
Smoky then helped the Shopkeeper up.
She had a grumpy expression on her face.
" Fate played me like a fool! Maybe I'm not the hero I thought I was, and store is DESTROYED! what am I to do?" she spoke in a almost crying tone.
Smoky didn't know what to say, he awkwardly stood around the sad shopkeeper.
"Hey, I'm sorry for all this, maybe I could help you clean this place?" Smoky said empatheticlly.
The shopkeeper put her hands on her face.
"My shop is in disrepair, this will take more than two people to fix!" She murmured.
Smoky looked at the holes in the wall him and the figure caused, he looked at his hand and dusted it off.
"Well, maybe you could join me as a master gunner on my ship? You could put these weapons to good use and get money for the repairs." Smoky said to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the hands off her face and wiped away her tears, she gave Smoky a confused look.
"Listen, I don't have much time you gonna join it not?" He said, going back to his arrogant behavior while holding out his hand infront of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper enthusiastically shook his hand.
"Fate has offered my another chance! For I am Sunstone, The chosen one!"
Smoky pulled his hand away.
"Alright alright, don't get too personal." Smoky loudly mumbled.
Immediately after Smoky said that Sunstone hugged him to his dismay.
"WHAT'D I JUST SAY?" He yelled.
__________________________________ Smoky left the shop, holding several crates full of weapons on his back.
He picked up the groceries he dropped and trumbled under the large weight.
"A-alright, I got new weapons for the crew along with a new master gunner, lets get outta here." Smoky said under his breath. Meanwhile Sunstone stood nearby Smoky, eating some of the groceries he carried. ________________________ Peacock tapped Rhodite lightly his her elbow
"We'd better make this quick, I'm don't like the feel of this place. She whispered.

Mercy has been resting under the tree, almost asleep, when Smoky came up and startled her. He mentioned a new crewmember and she saw Sunstone munching at a couple apples.
She was confused for a moment as she watched the young lady, but decided to go with it.
"Well, I don't mind. I just hope the Captain approves, Smoky." She walked over to Sunstone and held out her hand, smiling gently.
"Hi there, my names Mercy and I'm the ship's cook/cabin boy. Whats your name?"

Achroite chewed with his mouth open, "Why the rush?" ___
Rhodonite looked back at Peacock, "Give it a chance. I mean, we just got here." he gave an awkward smile.
Rhodonite ordered some drinks, and found a table. Thankfully, it was in a corner: Peacock was acting anti-social. He sat down.

Chev came out of the tavern Drunk as hell. She waddled along the back streets until she passed out in a box. --- Wardite was walking along when she saw a literal giant.
This man was literally 20 feet tall. Compared to Wardites small figure, this guy could probably step on her ((Wardite is 4'11'' in this RP because it makes more sense))
He was an African, black skinned as she had ever seen someone, and where else besides Africa do you find a man of that size.
The man stood up as Wardite walked by. People cleared a path for the giant as it made its way on to a near by ship. Those poor sailors.
Wardite didn't think much of it. She looked up and saw a rather menacing lady. Lady was putting it lightly. A giant African woman with red paint on her body more like it. This pirate crew scared Wardite a little more than she felt comfortable with. With her hand on her sword she walked away.
((Jasper is black now bitches))

Auros and Obsidian ordered a pair of beers and took a seat by a dust-caked window. They drank in silence, watching the carousing from afar.
"You two look like gentlemen of fortune," came a croak from next to them. Auros and Obsidian turned to see a wizened old man in an oily overcoat. "Willing to take a chance, perhaps?" He slid towards them over the table a parchment that looked as old as he did. It bore an antiquated seal, in Latin: "Philppus Rex Hispanicum."
"Spanish seal, dates back to Philip II," said Obsidian. "What does it contain?"
"A map to a hidden load of Aztec gold." The words fell off the old man's lips like dripping honey.
Now the two pirates were interested. Auros leaned forwards.
"Tell us more about this 'hidden load.'"

Sunstone spun around in place and extended her hand towards mercy.
"I am Sunstone, The chosen one! And former exotic weapon holder." She said dramatically.
___________________________________
Smoky gave Archoite a dirty look and dropped what he was carrying to catch his breath.
"Categorizing all these weapons is gonna take awhile, I don't have time to sit around and eat apples." He said before picking up the weapons again and slowly making his way toward the ship.
_________________________________ Peacock took sips from her drink and scanned and area around her table.
"Sorry, I've been on edge all day. Earlier this creep came up to me and asked me to join his crew..." Peacock said to Rhodonite.
__________________________________ The figure walked down a street, he played with his new curved sword. Earlier the figure pulled the knifes out of his back and tied them on the sword itself. He put the sword on his back as he walked into a bar looking for some fights. To his dismay nothing was happening but a map near some people caught his eye.
He sneaked around and swiped the map off the counter and began to examine it.
"Interesting... How exquisite.. you folks wouldn't mind me taking this map would you? After all I wouldn't want to start any trouble here would I?"
As the figure said that he intentionally aimed his sword's gleam into Obsidian's eye.

Obsidian looked up languidly from where he had been examining the map, and stared directly into the eyes of the figure. He activated his hypnotic powers. "Please hand back that map. It's of great importance to my partner and I,"--here he gestured to Auros--"and we would be ever so pleased if you could give it back to us." His voice dropped an octave and was smooth, comforting, yet demanding.

The figure's mask obscured his eyes, making Obsidian's power weak.
The figure still felt weakened, but he didn't notice.
"Hmmm...how about we settle this like MEN!" The figure said with anticipation.
He sat down near obsidian and put his arm on the table.
"Come on, lets have an arm wrestle, the winner gets the map AND the loser's index finger!" As the figure said that nearby bar patrons got interested and focused on the figure and Obsidian.

Mercy smiled at Sunstone's enthusiasm. "We're glad to have you, Sunstone. Its a lovely name."
The group started heading back to the ship. However, Mercy decided to stop near a tavern, the same one that Auros and Obsidian were currently in.
"Okay, wait here to watch the stuff, guys. I'm going in to buy a couple barrels. Sol isn't allowed inside and there is too much cargo to that could get taken. I'll be right back." She went inside quickly and went to the bar. She was about to ask the bartender if she could buy a couple barrels when she heard a commotion in the corner.
She heard HD bellow something about "settling this like MEN!" and came over to see what the fuss was about. She was surprised to see Auros and Obsidian facing off with a giant in a metal mask.
She heard the mans wager of a wrestling match and made her way to the table, turning towards HD, speaking politely, but firmly.
"Excuse me,sir, but don't you think taking the loser's finger is a bit much for an arm wrestling match?"

Achroite walked away leisurely after Mercy had left, "I'm not watching anything." he said. ___
"He's nothin'." Rhodonite reasoned. "Besides, you've got your matey right here." he pointed at himself, and grinned widely.
