Hunting for the Basilisk (Pirates and Lilan Navy)

[Poker]

Poker rolled his eyes as Chase denied the obvious facts.

Poker could see the skin too. His eyes were beginning to adjust, unfortunately it only got darker from here on in.

Poker still had his hand on Archer and he followed the dog deeper into the caves.

"Amory, Chase, keep up!" Poker whispered back behind him.

[chase]

Chase followed at the back of the the trio, crossbow at the ready. They were moving slowly and quietly now, watching where they placed every step.

"This cave may lead somewhere interesting." Chase whispered to the others. "Lets just hope we don't die there."

[ulyssar]

Ullissyr Lorian leapt lightly off the small rowboat she was leading. Her boots landed in soft sand beneath her feet which caved in slightly and left perfect impressions of her soles. the sun was high and the sky was clear, and light wind was blowing from the side and Ullissyr could have stayed here for hours just enjoying the moment, but she had a job to do, and a reward to reap.

She turned and heaved the rowboat up further onto the beach. The light warship she had arrived on still had adequate troops on it to defend it. It sat tall and proud just off shore. And Ullissyr stood proud in her embelished uniform as well.

Ullissyr was fully prepared to face whatever this 'basilisk' had to throw at her. She snickered at the name.

Ullissyr capsized the boat on the shore so it didn't wash away, and then walked up the hill in front of her. When she was on top, she drew her longbow. you could see for ages from up here. The island was so flat.

She couldn't see the Supreme Lord Welloway anywhere. She thought that he would be making an appearance here too, but she couldn't find him anywhere. There was also another Navy soldier supposed to be here... it looked like she was the first.

The city was way off to her left, and a series of higher hills rose off to her right. And that was where she saw her target. The cave sat small and conspicous at the side of the hill nearest to them. Soon, this basilisk would be dead, and she would be famous...

The rumble of rocks echoed through out the cave. A tan girl sat slumped against the wall, dirt covered her body as well as rocks. She pushed off all of the earth that pinned her to the ground. Her blue eyes were busy watching what she was doing. When all debre was pushed aside, Morwen stood up, dusting herself off. Her head traveled upward to look at the ceiling that stood overhead. A huge hole, her size, had brought her to where she was right now. Small brusies and cuts grew on her arm. To assuage the pain, Morwen tore some fabric from her pants and wrapped it around where it bled most. She reached back to pull her pony tail tighter.

Voices traveled to where she stood. Feet planted firmly to the ground, she reached for her sword. No one can ever be too carefull around these parts. She just hoped no one here was to harm her.

She lifted her head, confidence filling her insides.

[chase]

Chase spun around, crossbow at the ready and aimed down at where the crash had come from. "Its here!" he called to the others.

He crouched low and moved quickly towards the noise, his eyes straining in the darkness down the sights of his crossbow. Strangely though, Horus wasn't going off her nut.

Chase leapt over a rock and was about to fire when he noticed that the basilisk wasn't here at all... it was just a woman. A pirate from the looks of things. Chase lowered his crossbow a little, but still remained alert. "One of ours Amory?"

[Kristen]

Morwen's head turned quicker than an owls. Her bright eyes layed upon a man holding a crossbow at her. She didn't speak, knowing that he was talking to another...

[Poker]

Poker walked up besides Chase and looked at the person.

"Definitely a pirate." Poker said, wistfully. He turned back around and began walking the right way again.

"All right, let's go...we still have a basilisk to find. You might as well help."

[Kristen]

Morwen didn't move. How do these people come to trust me so quickly? She wondered. She took her hand off of her scabbard, folding her arms across her chest. She didn't trust them yet and she wasn't planning on hunting a...BASILISK!? "There's a basilisk in here!? Are you saying I just fell into the home of a giant lizard!?" She didn't even know them yet and she was already yelling at them.

[Poker]

Poker turned around to look at the Pirate Girl.

"Snake. A Basilisk is a giant snake." Poker rolled his eyes.

"When your ready to act like a Pirate just like the rest of us feel free to follow...or you could try and go back yourself and risk getting eaten. Have fun."

Poker paused for a second.

"Oh...did I mention there was a reward?" He smiled. "Ready to follow yet?"

[chase]

Chase looked between the two, lowering his crossbow. "We're wasting time here. Lets get these introductions over with. I'm Chase, this is Poker, and you would of course know the queen." Chase gazed around to make sure that they weren't being hunted. "And you are?"

[Kristen]

Morwen rolled her eyes at his rolling eyes. "Have you actually seen one before?" She asked arrogantly. But she did like the sound of a reward. She didn't even hear the other talk. For she was already getting angry by his rolling eyes.

[chase]

"We have actually," Chase could see that she wasn't listening to him as much as he wanted her to. "It attacked us and killed the guards. Now we're back to teach it a lesson."

"Now, in case you weren't listening before, I am Chase, this is Poker, and your queen is right here." Chase never even let a tinge of arrogance come into his voice, becuase he couldn't feel annoyance. "What is your name?"

[ulyssar]

Ullissyr was getting bored, and frustrated. Her allies still hadn't arrived yet. If they didn't arrive soon, she would take some troops with her and storm the caves without them.

But she recollected herself before she made any rash decisions. She'd give them 10 more minutes. One of them was the Supreme Lord after all...

[Kristen]

Morwen looked up to the one called Chase. "I am Morwen," she finally said. She didn't even look at the queen and she bowed.

(sorry bad post. its REALLY late and im tired hehe)

[chase]

ooc: thats ok... it happens to the best of us ;D

"Morwen," Chase turned to look at Amory. "It looks like our numbers have just increased here mi'lady." He turned back to Morwen. "Well, Morwen, glad to have you aboard. We may probably need all the help we can get. Especially when the navy hears about this and shows up..."

Chase turned to watch Poker walking away slowly, "Don't get too far ahead, we need to stick together..."

ooc: I think we should leave it there for Amory to catch up...
