Welcome to Gaia! ::

-Quasan too instructed the few crewmen he selected to row in unison. He stood at the front with his arms crossed, ready and willing to complete the task at hand.-

As Destiny rowed along with the other crewman to shore, she thought over the Captain's orders. Go to the Eastern battery, then split and take the western gate of the fort.. secure as you move through. As the sand scraped the underside of her boat, she jumped out, and helped pull the boat further up the beach.
Following the Captain's squadron, she unsheathed two daggers, and prepared herself to fight.
As they approached the hill, they were peppered with small shot, but no major injuries. Destiny felt one shot graze her face, from her left temple down to her cheek, but it was shallow. She used her sleeve to dab away the blood, ducked, then continued the charge.
Comming up on the first of the snipers, she singled one out, and ducked around behind him, using the combination of front-back stab. It worked, the rifleman went down without a sound. Moving around to the second, any noise she made was lost in the hail of gunfire. Again, she used the two move combo, and the other sharpshooter went down.
Moving like a ghost, her figure lost in the clouds of smoke, she began to take down the other soldiers. As she went down the line, they fell, one by one. Finally, the last one fell, and the hail of bullets stopped.
Looking back to make sure the Captain's squadron was following, she slipped around and amoung the trees lining the road to the fort, lost in the lingering clouds of gunpoweder smoke.
With a rope in her hands, she swung her grapel up onto the fort's upper wall over the West Gate. With her squadron giving her cover fire, she shinnied up the rope, and began to take out defenders.
Parry, block, slash, throw, duck.. it became a fighting frenzy, but one quite enjoyable to Destiny. She enjoyed fighting.. probably a little too much, but in this case, it was a good flaw to have.
With her squad at her back, they scythed through the soldiers, not giving them time to react to the wave of death flowing through the fort.
Going room to room, slicing down all she could find, Destiny soon found herself with no more enemies left to kill.
Turning to her squad, she told them to secure the two halls leading to the other gates, and taking two of the best blademasters in her squad, she went in search of the others.
As she moved towards the western gate, she came across the courtyard in the middle of the fort. There, standing in the hall leading towards the Eastern gate, was an officer, facing her direction, with only two soldiers standing guard. Destiny ducked back behind the pillar, and gauged the distance. It was within throwing range, and, remembering orders, she decided to take out the officer.
She eased one of her throwing blades off of her belt, took aim, and slipped from behind the pillar, and threw her blade. With a satisfying 'thwip', her blade buried itself in the man's throat. Gesutring to the two swordsman she brought along, she charged out with them behind her and took on the two guards before they had time to sound an alarm. She cut down one of the guards, while the crewman sliced the other open from navel to nose.
With no more guards appearing, she continued in search of the other pirates.

*The longboat lurched to a stop as Kurisutofa and the men pulled the boat ashore, as not to loose it to the tide. Unsheathing his broadsword, he gripped the baskethilt's handle in his gloved hand firmly. It had been awhile since last he saw action. He was ready for it more than ever. The sounds of battle and the smell of gunpowder heavily filled the air. Glancing over his shoulder, he calls to his men.*

"ARM YOURSELFS MEN! READY YOUR FIREARMS AND ADVANCE ON MY SIGNAL."

*Pulling his pistols from his belt one by one, he makes them ready for the assault.*

"IF THERE BE A RELIGIOUS MAN AMONGST US, LET HIM PRAY NOW. FOR IN A FEW SHORT MOMENTS, IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE TO REPENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY GUILT FOR ANY SINS YOU'VE EVER COMMITTED, NOW'S THE BLOODY TIME TO LET IT BE KNOWN TO WHATEVER GOD YOU BELONG.

*Kneeling onto on knee, he plunges his sword into the sand and bows his head*

-Joinin up with Ms. Ares, he reinstates the plan to her.-

Remember we are to surround them. Make your way to the Northern gate and dispose of those who get in the way. My group and I shall head straight to the south gate. If you should need any assistance at all just whistle for us. Hopefully you can handle yourselves but one can never tell what is in store for us.

-Turning back to his crew, he gave the signal to march forwards.-

This is the way I want you all to go about this. This is a failsafe formation that has won me many battles before in my old pirate ship. Now lets go!

Destiny strode with confidence through the empty halls of the western gate. She was puzzeled by the lack of presence of the other squadrons of pirates. Reviewing the Captain's instructions mentally... I want you to take the Western Gate, whilst I enter the Fort via the Eastern Gate. he had said. So, that's what she did.
Turning quickly, she went back to the squad remaining at the western gate.
Sir, there are figures approaching through the smoke clouds. one of the crew told her.
Well then, lets see if they are friend or foe. Close the gate, and snipers stand by. We'll wait till they get closer, then hail them.. if friends,open the portcullis. If foe, you know what to do.
She watched as the figures aproached closer and closer to the walls.She cupped her hands around her mouth and called out.. Who be you? Pirate? friend? Or foe? This is Galleymaster, who are you?"
