"Alrigh', ye take those ye feel need it tae th' ship an' I be doin' th' bes' I kin wit' those what are left. Fill me in, wha' be our sit'ation?"
He looked to the Lady, where crew were bustling about hurredly. It would be hard to transport the wounded, of which there appeared to be many.

-Sparrow blinked, not exactly shure what to do. withen moments, she made up her choice. She'd pick off everyone she could, then she'd go in with the final blow to those who had survived her bullets. with a giggle, she skipped off to retrive the box of amunition she'd need.-

"Very well then Dr. Morgan." Dr. Baxter signaled to the crew member he found earlier to help him load people on to the the small boat to return to the lady, once that was completed he motioned the lad to Dr. Morgan.
"He can help you, he's fine, just had a bump to the head is all."

*Signals to the Officer's*
"All Officer's are to sit in the rear of the boat next to the Coxswain. I however shall stand in the front of the lead longboat. All boats are to be rowed in diamond fleet position:
1.) 1st & Lead - Captain's Longboat - 1st Squadron
2.) 2nd Boat Aft to Starboard - Miss Ares & Guncrew
3.) 2nd Boat Aft to Port - Miss Destiny & Squadron
4.) 3rd Boat Rear/ Aft of Lead - Mr. Quasan & Squadron
We are to beach in an organized fashion. Once your on the beach, there's no turning back. Lifeboats are to be left for the Medical Team's Use Only.
Once all Squadrons have disembarked from the shore:
I want Miss Ares & Mr. Quasan to assault the Eastern Battery on the Lower Hill. Run straight at them and then flank to both sides. Miss Ares take the North Gate & Mr. Quasan take the Southern Gate of the Fort. Once you have overtaken the Fort's Munition's, secure it with four armed men and then regroup with the rest of your men and then advance upon the Fort further up the Hill. That's where I & Miss Destiny shall assault.
Miss Destiny, I want you to accompany Me and my Squadron. Once we have reached the Second Battery on the Upper Eastern Hill, we shall advance on as a full attack. Once we get within 250 yards, we shall split into our two battalions and move to seperate Gates. Miss Destiny, I want you to take the Western Gate, whilst I enter the Fort via the Eastern Gate. Once we've struck the garrison's colours, we shall run up our own flag and stand a six man guard around the munitions bunker.
Once we have done so, if they've not reenforced us yet, we shall regroup with Miss Ares & Mr. Quasan on the Main Road. Once we've restocked our ammuntion, we'll make for the Citadel, or at least what's left of it after they've extinguished the fire. There, The Captain & Crew of the Lady Washington shall overun the Main Fortress and we shall have taken Toulon."
*Raises his Sword in the Air*
"THREE CHEERS! FOR VICTORY, FOR THE LADY & FOR THE PRIZE"
((The proper reply in this case would be "Huzzah"))

*...Ilor Pulls the trigger, the bullet makes it's exit through the barrel of the gun and through the back of the mans head, painting the ground with his blood and brain.*
"That ought to teach you to shoot me."

"Away the lines and commense the port oars. Follow in time with the starboard. In time now lads. I 'nay want to be rowing in circles."
*Pushing his boat off of the sides of the Lady, he takes his place at the bow.*
"On my call boys! On '2', heave. On '6', reposition the oars. Come now...Row to the Beach! Let us commence this assault."
*Fires a pistol shot in the air to signal to the rest of the boats.*
'2'
'6'
*The longboat slid through the water like a seal over ice. The water lapped at the bow and down the sides as they boats steadily crusied to shore.*
'2'

*Soon, the largest of the battalion would be ashore and ready to make an advance.*

Having the most serious cases aboard the skiff, he set off back to the Lady. He hoped that whatever crew was remaining on the Lady would be able to help him bring the wounded aboard and down below deck. He would know better as he got to the lady. He could already see several other skiffs being launched as well.

*As the Medical skiff & the Longboat Landing Party passed within hailing distance of each other, Captain Kurisutofa shouts to Dr. Baxter.* "Ahoy! Doctor! What Be The Butcher's Bill? How Many Casualties? Dead? Wounded? Destroyed? What Be The Toll?"

"So far... I've found 5 dead before I even got there, 13 with minor injuries that Dr. Morgan is tending to ashore - make sure he takes it easy.. he had a bit of a scrap and hurt is leg. These 3 lads here with me I'm not sure about yet. They need some serious help, so we are returning to the Lady. I'll be back ashore when I'm thorugh with them" Dr Baxter hailed back. He then continued on his unhappy journey back to the Lady

((Unhappy? You should be thrilled. Your not the one throwing yourself headfirst into the Raging Inferno of Doom that is the City of Toulon. Now go back to the Ship and think about what you've done. Bad Doctor, Bad!))
*Hailing back to Doctor Morgan*
"Your A Brave Soul, Doctor. Feel Free To Use The Abandend Longboats That Are Already Beached Ashore For The Rest Of Your Return Trips. You'll Be Needing The Room. Good Luck Doctor! I'll See You Next While We Drink Tea Upon The Heights Of The Citadel! Fair Thee Well Doctor!"

Heave, go, lads! Go!
*she sees the shore slowly creeping its way closer to the boats, until she can almost smell the gunsmoke coming from Toulon. She could also smell something a little more familiar, and even more pungent, blood. She knew that as soon as the skiff hit the sand, the battle would rage until the last man dies, or is taken prisoner. She felt the familiar butterflies in her stomach from excitement, and couldn't wait to see what was in store*
Come on lads, the shore is just out of reach!
((I'm getting very excited....))

*As the shore comes within pistol shot,
Captain K. shouts to Ares from a short distance away*
"So, your orders are clear to you, am I correct, Officer Ares?"
*He looks at her from under his wide-brimmed hat. All that can be seen is his glinting right-eye and a smirk of satisfaction.*

The good Dr. Proceeded to row back to ship. The few remaining crew members indeed did help him get the wounded lads aboard. He had to set to work right away.

coming out from his hiding place beneath the pier, Dr. Morgan shouted to the man who had been placed under his command.
"Lad, ye take any wounded ye find an' put 'em in tha' buildin' o'er there. I be 'elpin' ye tae begin wit, but 'en I'll tend tae 'em meself. Yer job be tae gath'r 'em an' bring 'em tae me."
The man hurries off and begins dragging the wounded to the warehouse, or helping them along if they are still able to walk. As the boats were just off the shore, Dr. Morgan took a second to wave to Kurisutofa, and then began transporting the injured himself.
