-Upon arriving on deck, he dodged out of Syn's way as she backed up towards the captain. He stood besides Captain Kurisutofa and wiped his nose with his handkerchief.-
"Quasan reporting for duty sir! Feeling a lot better now, with the exception of this bloody runny nose of mine! I can't smell a damn thing! Whats all the commotion? Those below in the infirmary were all startled by the attack on the ship."

*Looks about the remaining crew members who were not sent to the gun deck*
ALL OF YE WHO ARE NOT HUGGING A CANNON GO AND READY THE SAILS, ANY PIECE OF CLOTH YOU SEE IS CONSIDERED A SAIL AND BEST BE HOSTED.... IF I DON'T SEE ALL SAILS UP BY SECOND CANNON FIRE, CONSIDER YOURSELF AMMO, SAVVY?..
*Looks to Quasan blowing his nose*
You there, remove the sail from your nose and get to hoisting
We fire three broadsides per side then head due North. It's your life saved or your life taken; Davvy Jones be taken' names, lets disappoint him men....
*With that said and done, John keeps a close eye on enemy fire and the sails and the crew men rigging up the sails; a lot is going to happen, so a sharp mind can determine life or death. *

*Aeoess felt the the ship rock violently from the cannons, once she regained her balance she look to see the flag of the nearby ship.*'
"DAMMIT!!! They just HAD to be from home!!!"
*Aeoess became quite angry to see this site, it was either her home, or her crew she would fight for..
For the people who would happily hang her, or the people who provided a rat infested cell, who also killed her cat...
She ran and assisted to ready the sails as John requested. She then yelled out a message to the captain.*
"My orders are to observe, my friend...But it'll be hard to hold myself...Do I have permission to protect myself and the crew, or do you have something else in mind?"
*Her facial expression was a serious as possible, her hands were shaking in anticipation. She was as ready to kill and leave no survivors. However she knew that another outburst would lead to the cell. So she waited for a response as she helped John with the sails.*

Her eyes narrowed as the cannon ball moved closer to the ship. It would be a close one between another warning shot or the first fire of battle.
"PREPARE YOUR GUNS! MEN LOADED AND READY! AT MY COMMAND NOW!"
She watched out of the corner of her eye as the captain was surrounded by pestering children waiting for orders. As swiftly as they had come they were dispersed by John, thanking him silently for his quick thinking one eye remained on the captain as the other on the cannon ball heading their way.

Dr. Morgan appeared on deck just as the British ship let loose its broadside- he had run across some difficulties with the layout and movement of the ship after so long on land and in his injured condition. The flash of the cannons caught him off gaurd, and he ducked back into the hatch he had just popped out from.
"Damn. Would have been better off staying in Gibraltor for the rest of my life."
A white cat peered groggily out from under a boat- upon spotting its master, it raced across the deck. It was soon perched in its usual placce on his shoulder. The moment the cat was settled, Morgan climbed once more out of the hatch.

*Kubain grabs a cannon next to Destiny*
How're you doin'? wink
*He then looks at the oncoming cannonballs and gets ready to return fire*

*she was startled by the order yelled at her*
Beg your pardon, Lady Melaria, but you's are not to be givin' orders aroun' here! This is MY deck and MY crew. You best listen to me!
*She turns to the crew*
Wait for me, crew!

She winked at him as she prepared her cannon to fire-as per the Captain's orders.
It's going very fine-with the prospect of a sea battle loming on the horizon. All we need is the order to fire-which we have! Anything else will have to wait till we return to the open ocean. I'll look forward to it with pleasure! !!"
She could hear returning cannonballs whiz through the air above the ship and splash into the water close to the ship.
The sounds brought to mind countless other sea battles that she had been in over her long, long time at sea- the ancient Greeks, the Vikings, the Sourther Pacific fighters in their outrigger canoes.. all with very different methods of battle and attacking.

Looking at the woman, slightly annoyed, "Excuse me but the captain placed me in charge of this gun crew. I do belive you have your own trained and more experience men. It would be best if you did not confuse these poorly trained sailors with who gives what order. Now please see to your more experienced gunners and leave me to mine. And I do beleive at the moment I do outrank you so if I were you I would watch my tounge."
Tuning to her crew, "DISREGARD AND WAIT FOR MY SIGNAL!" Looking back towards the captain she waited for the signal to return fire. She also saw more men appear from below deck and thanked her luck that this ship seemed to be teeming with people, hopefully abled bodied men that were quick with their swords and quicker reflexes.

<< Continued from Medical Deck >>
*Rushing up the hatchway, she found the Doctor up beside the Captain. With the satchel in hand, she clambered up the steps and, with barely any breath, gave the bag to the Doctor.*
"Everything.... below.... deck.... is.... ready.... Everything is.... secure.... and.... ready for.... inevitable injuries..." She stood before him, panting as she handed over the bag. Jaden doubled over in pain from rushing up from the infirmary and trying to breathe so hard.
"And.... Captain.... you have.... another.... hand upon deck.... Quasan.... is healthy.... enough to.... join our.... efforts" she said with some final huge inhales of breath.

*Omi was certainly slightly confused. She had been put in the charge of Miss Melaria, so she knew that hers should be the word listened to, but it was still confusing. Still, at least she knew who to listen to now, definitely, and now wasn't the time for confusion. She gulped, trying to steel herself for the coming fight.*

"Well I'm as healthy as I can be love."
-He smiled at her and wiped his nose again. He quickly put the handkerchief away in his coat pocket so that John wouldn't see. He didn't want it infecting the others.-
"Catch your breath, lass! Losing your composure in these situations brings you down to 60%!"
-He then bowed politly, thanking her for the medical help and then turned to attend to the sails.-

*Hears the commotion on the gun deck*
By all rights, Ares is the gun team leader, but the Captain did order that Melaria take control of any other able hands to man a cannon. Ares, you control the seasoned experienced team, you of coarse, know where to shoot, Melaria, you do whatever you can to get your men to hit the ship... so to my knowledge you both are equally ranked. I f ye still have problems take it up with the Captain...
*looks back to his rigging crew*
I DON'T BELIEVE I SAID "STOP WORKING"!!!!

*After Aeoess finished her part on the sails, she ran to Melaria and Aries who were both in command of the powder monkeys. (At least in her point of view)*
"May I have the honour of assisting you two? If possible, I wish to sink that ship..."
*Aeoess knew that they had to get rid of that ship, not just to go forward with whatever mission Kurisutofa had, but also because she was planning to go home once they docked to see her old doctor and cure whatever was wrong with her.*
