{Barbossa : The Black Pearl : Helm}
Barbossa had listened to Elizabeth's speech, slightly astounded at how it had rallied the crew from the brink of despair, to the ready for battle crew that it was now. The undead captain himself felt slightly more confident by the words as he now assumed his position at the wheel. As they began sailing forward, he noted the drastic change in the weather. It had gone from clear to a sudden downpour. He looked to Riku as he asked to borrow his telescope and again gave the man a silent nod as he handed it to him. It would be a bit hard to see with the storm that had set in, but anything he could see would help.
"All hands! Arm yerselves!" he bellowed to the crew and all others aboard the ship.
{Leon : The Black Pearl : Deck}
The air had changed time and again before, during, and after the ritual. The sudden attack from the soldiers that fell upon them had left the gunblader on edge even after Calypso's release. Leon's gaze now was to the front, as the Dutchman and the Pearl very quickly approached each other.
He made his way to stand beside the Earthlings on the ship, his gunblade raised and at the ready for any oncoming attacks.
"Don't let your guard down guys!"
{Auron : The Black Pearl : Deck}
The unsent samurai remained where he had been when he was held at gunpoint. Even though the danger of being attacked by the crew they were with had now passed with the release of Calypso. He was undeterred by the events that unfolded with the crew as their supposed last hope had failed. He was relieved when it seemed that they had regained their resolve thanks to Elizabeth. He stood much as Leon did. Determined and prepared for the battle, his katana still resting on his shoulder. Though he seemed calm, every fiber of his being was ready to strike.

{Bobbi .:. Atlantica .:. Above the Battlefield} A shiver lanced down Bobbi's spine as she heard the enemy forces were approaching. She forced back a grin (since when had this become fun to her?), and swam higher up so she could see the spread of the army. She could hear Sora giving a rallying speech, but all she could think of was Aragorn.Best. Speech. Ever.~: You are a strange one, child.:~ I know.✧✧✧✧✧ {Demyx .:. Black Pearl .:. Crow's Nest}
Demyx had found himself a nice, wonderful, out-of-the-way vantage point, and he was thoroughly enjoying the show. Particularly when Calypso (was that her name? So many names being thrown around here, it was hard to keep track of them all) grew about a billion feet tall then exploded into a metric ton of crabs. It was fascinating, watching all these people scurrying around, making grand speeches, and generally taking a few levels in badassery.
When one of the loud people with a big hat yelled about "arming themselves," the Melodious Nocturne ducked behind the wall-thingy in his hiding spot. What did they call this thing? Crow's nest, that was it. Hopefully people wouldn't realize he was up here and drag him into the commotion going on. Sure, it was kind of a tight spot--he could get hit by a cannon any time--but it was better than being left behind at the Cove and not knowing what was going on. If the kids were going to blow themselves up for a bunch of pirates, he at least wanted to know about it.

{Kyle : Atlantica : Battlefield}Kyle was in the front lines, talking quietly with some of the soldiers when the call over the charms came. Time to do this. Fight in an underwater war. Hopefully not watch too many people die. Hopefully not have all his memories drained from him. Hopefully not become a husk. Yeah, it would be good to avoid that. Even as he thought it, he couldn't help noticing he was shivering, even after Sora's remarkably energetic speech. Not out of excitement, not out of cold, but it was stronger than fear, but he couldn't place it.I believe that is what is called dread. His summon chimed in helpfully.Ah. Yeah. That. First war that I've really been in. I mean, I guess you could count the Ivan Ooze thing. But I was in a robot for that. Everything else has been really smaller compared to this. All these people could die...and I'm not even in my element. He gripped his katars tighter, seeking some solace from them. It didn't work. But at least it seemed to stop the shivering.
Diving down, he got closer to the ground, where he would have an easier time pulling it out and fighting.{Valmar : Under the Sea : Outside the Battlefield}Valmar hadn't so much made a choice as to where to fight as fell off the deck and started swimming downwards. It didn't hurt that he could feel the pull of the earth somewhere down there. Just a few feet under his body started changing, his legs elongating and melding togther to form a massive tail, one that wouldn't look out of place on a sea serpent. Then he swam lazily downward, searching out the massive Darkness beneath him.
After he'd gotten there, he'd lazed some more, sleeping on the ground for a quick nap before the call came in. Slowly, he started swimming along the bottom, taking his sweet time. He was still sleepy, and everyone knew it was silly to fight when tired. You missed all the good parts.

Sayrike::Atlantica::Throne Room--->Battlefield Even though the battle was starting, Sayrike still felt a bit out of place, like she didn't have a job. Kyla and Kyle seemed to have coordinated things between them beforehand; the masked girl felt more like a third wheel, or backup. As everyone started to split off, she summoned her mirrors, and out from the middle one stepped a copy of herself. They nodded at each other, trying to give a reassuring grin, before Sayrike's copy took one of the side mirrors and swam after Bobbi, mirror reflecting muted light as it floated by her side. "Hey, Bobbi, wait up!" "Sayrike" shouted after the archer. The other Sayrike swam ( did octopi swim?) a little ways behind Kyle and Kyla, but opened up a connection with Jenny over the charms, still thinking back to their breakfast that morning. <> the masked girl asked, trying to keep conversation light. Hopefully she wasn't interrupting Jenny. Pausing, she added, <>

{Bobbi .:. Atlantica .:. Above Battlefield}
Bobbi turned as she heard her name called, and smiled as she saw Sayrike following after her. Well, maybe not Sayrike, Sayrike, but most likely one of those projection clone thingies she was talking about earlier that Bobbi hadn't paid much attention to.
Gotta stop spacing out during tactics meets, the Archer thought ruefully.

[Dawn : Caribbean : Black Pearl]
Dawn's eyes narrowed as she listened to the speech that Elizabeth gave. Soon afterwards the crew was fired up. Seemed as though things were going as it did in the movie. Which shouldn't of surprised her much. Everything had lead to this moment. Dawn summoned her Tessen as she went over with Riku when he borrowed Barbossa's telescope.
"What all do you see?" she asked as the rain started. She could of prepared the crew by starting her dancing. However by doing so too early would be wasting of energy for what she predicted to be a long fight.

[Anthony ~.~ Caribbean Sea ~.~ Black Pearl]
Before he knew it, Anthony was staring down the barrel of a gun. He laughed nervously and said the first thing that came to mind: "Parlay?"
Regardless, he was grabbed and pulled towards the center of the deck, along with the rest of his companions. From there, everything happened so fast. There was an attack, then a bright light, and then everything calmed down (well, as calm can get given the situation). Barbossa performed the ritual and everything that followed was much like the film: Calypso was freed and grew some-100 feet and surprisingly did not cause the ship to break and fold into itself (perks of being a goddess) then turned into a billion crabs after shouting something no one understood, Elizabeth gave her speech, pirates were rallied, and now the two ships were headed towards one another.
The sense of dullness was soon washed over by the excitement before the battle; that feeling one gets before that big moment; that rush of adrenaline a fighter or a runner feels before the big fight or race. Anthony could feel its cool, numbing effect run up and down his body. He was nervous, yet excited.
The knight glanced over at the Dutchman. "James could be on that ship..."
He closed his eyes for a moment and prayed silently to himself.
"Just as you fought for Israel, fight for us, Lord."
[Lucian ~.~ Caribbean Sea ~.~ Flying Dutchman]
Lucian was restless. He sat on a barrel on the deck and his leg would not stop bouncing. He was cooped up on this ship for far too long. Not that he's complaining (in retrospect, it wasn't very long at all), but a change in activity would be nice.
With each inch they drew closer to the Pearl, he could feel his cool and playful reserve peeling away, much like a snake sheds its skin, allowing his more primitive instincts to take control. He arose from the barrel and moved forward until he was along side Kuro Oni. He didn't think much of the fellow Replica, other than being super scary, but they seemed to share the same thirst for battle.
The Replica watched as the ships drew nearer, his body, just like his original's, began to fill with the numbing effect of adrenaline. His patience was drawing thin, but unlike most of the newer Replicas, he was good at hiding it, though he did not know how much longer he could put up the charade if his reserve kept slipping away from him.

[[ The following post is long as hell. Yes, there will be a 'Too-Long-Didn't Read' summary at the bottom, so if you don't care about dramatic effect, you can skip right down to it. For you speed readers, if you're trying to read with the music, a little pacing might be required, though the musical transitions should make it obvious which part of the post you should be on. ]] [ Kyle ; Sora : Under the Sea : Battlefield ]Calypso had been freed. The ships were moving. Overhead, they could see the waters slowly churning awkwardly, but in front of them, the dark army had begun to swim toward them, just as Ajora had warned them. And he was leading the charge--Kyle saw that much using one of his spare Starlights.
{Cue : Cascade (Beta) - Homestuck}
It's time.
The eight multi-colored Starlights around him moved from horizontal to vertical, around his head, arms, and body. He crossed his arms and wrapped hands over his chest, the seals glowing even brighter than before, and closed his eyes. It was time to set his plan into motion.
Suddenly, what people might have mistaken for small reflections of light in random areas revealed themselves to be more Starlight spheres, which began to converge on Kyle. All around the battlefield, dozens of multi-colored spells moved into position at Kyle's side, more and more, until finally, there was a wall of colored stars backing up the army--easily a hundred strong. Kyle had siphoned off mana from all those who would allow it, and it showed.
"Everybody ready?""Ajora spotted. No Trident, though."Kyle faltered, his eyes opening in confusion. "What? But he's here, I just saw him.""Well, he had a few copies of himself in Hawaii, so it's no surprise, really.""What... but that..."--- The normally-dark caverns were lit with the bright light of the Trident's energy, revealing Ajora and his group standing in front of a large, circular chasm. The leading Replica smirked.
"We're here."
Ajora aimed the glowing Trident down the chasm and, with a moment's charge, released a powerful blast of black magic into the pit. When the spell struck the bottom, the entire cave began to emit a bright-red light, causing the caverns and the earth above, including Atlantica, to quake.
---
The city shook violently behind the army, and when any of them turned to look, they would see an ominous red light shoot up from the ground, followed by a continuous eruption of magma growing near the castle. The magma, of course, immediately cooled into black stone before more erupted above it, and this went on for a few moments as it formed a tall black spire. Atlantica's castle was largely unharmed, and besides the quake, there seemed to be no threat... to the city, at least.
---
As the lights dimmed, Ajora peered down the chasm again, seeing the stepping stones twisting around the walls, and peered up, seeing the same.
"Atlantis, here we come," he sneered before leading them down the descending spiral. --- After watching the black tower rise near the castle, Kyle glanced toward the battlefield, his composure slowly failing as he began to grasp what was going on.
No one told me he could be in more than one place!.:Perhaps they thought it was common knowledge?:.Common knowledge?! How would that be common knowledge?! It throws everything off, if they'd have told me, we could have been more prepared--.:Do not blame them for Ajora's deception, it is not their fault!:.... You're right.
The hundred-plus Starlights slowly began to dim, as did the seals on his body. He couldn't hold his own breath, let alone the mass magic. He was overwhelmed. Ajora could be on multiple fronts, but he could only be on one. He was assaulting the Pearl, laying siege to Atlantica, and was by now invading Atlantis.
Kyle's body went limp as he blocked everything out. He saw nothing, heard nothing.
I should have asked. I should have made sure I had all the information..:No, fool, that's not what I meant, no one is to blame--:.No one? Who is Ajora? From where does he derive his thoughts?.:Would you just stop that--:.I'm supposed to know him better than everyone else. And he still won..:He'll only win if you give up, idiot!:.The Starlights were almost out, but flickered for a moment.
No.
The dimmed lights began to brighten once again, as did his seals and his eyes as he lifted his gaze to look at the army..:There we are, fight back!:.Fight? No. I will not fight. I will kill him..:Well, that's the general goal--:.I will kill him. I will kill his army, I will kill his creations--.:Focus, Kyle--:.I'm more focused now than I've ever been. He killed Rachel, he took Joe's eye, he tricked us--
Kyle's entire body began to glow somewhat dully, as if he was releasing an aura that was being hidden by another. The Starlights were brimming with energy, even seeming to twitch with an anticipation. Kyle's fists were shaking at his sides as he grimaced in anger.
"YOU THINK YOU'VE WON?!" Kyle shouted, throwing his arms out to his side as he glared toward the coming army. Suddenly, in a wave starting from Kyle, each of the Starlights expanded and separated rapidly, becoming multi-layered light halos aimed toward the army, with small charges in their centers. Those connected to him with a seal would feel a surge of anger and rage from their seals, and the marks would dim and give a very faint, almost ignorable burning sensation.
Kyle lowered his head, his body convulsing...
Before he surged with magic, lifting his head to release a stunning Dragon's Roar that sounded as if he shouted "DIE!"
The hundred-plus Star Cannons rushed forward at random, criss-crossing chaotically and firing small Light-elemental blasts at any enemy in sight. It was a torrent of energy with no general direction or order, and considering most of the army was made of low-level minions, they were easily Stunned by the roar."Go, go, go!" Sora shouted, dashing forward to take advantage of the largely disabled army. The sirens hadn't begun to sing, but Kyle had given them a small window of opportunity. The soldiers also charged, following the Keyblader and whoever else decided to lead.
"Jenny, get them to start singing, quickly!"The Ajora in front of them only motioned for his own forces (the ones that were not Stunned, such as his Knights, the Geists, and the Aquatank Heartless) to charge forward as well. They rushed forward, attempting to intercept any attacks on the weaker Heartless until they could fight back. His grinning face was easily lost in the rush of monsters.
"Nice work, though it might have worked better if you'd kept your cool~"Ajora's taunt (which was only sent to him) tipped the scales of Kyle's control. Consumed by rage, he began to convulse before releasing another Roar, and the constant surge of magic finally shredded Kyla's disguise, revealing the strain on Kyle's form of using so much mana: every inch of his body, from head to tail, his lips, his ears, under his arms, down his fingers, along his sides and his beta-fins, was covered in glowing circuits of light. The only exceptions were the seals on his arms and back and his eyes. The lines seemed to be coming from his seals, whereas his eyes were completely consumed by violet light, the skin around his eyes cracking with violet light and mixing in with the golden circuits.
As he writhed in anger, he continued to released periodic Roars, overcome by anger.[[ If you want a 'too-long-didn't-read' summary: --Kyle summoned a large wall of 100-ish Starlights of various colors behind the army --They find out Ajora is both on the Dutchman and in Atlantica --The ground quakes, a large stone spire erupts near the castle (doesn't actually do anything yet, feel free to explore it if you want but you'd have to go all the way back to the castle) --Kyle shuts down for about a minute as the army continues to approach --Kyle snaps, Roars, and sends all of his Starlights (which are now Star Cannons, which look like this) firing chaotically at the dark army. --Kyla's disguise of Kyle gets torn so you see how weird he looks if you bother looking. --The battle begins Considering the length of this post, feel free to start your reaction anywhere, including as far back as feeling the ground shake if you want. Most of the latter half is just Kyle losing it, so if you tried to talk to him, he wouldn't have even heard you, which you can include in your own reaction posts if you try to talk to him. I probably won't post as Kyle for a bit, since he's just out of it, but it's safe to assume that every so often, he's going to release another Dragon Roar, which may or may not Stun you. I don't care if you get stunned or not-- you do not need to roll unless you want to. I leave that all entirely up to the RPer. It's just an effect that's going to happen throughout the battle until he gets shut up. ]]

[ Riku ; Kuja : Caribbean : Black Pearl ]
After sending Kyle the information about Ajora (apparently, no one had told him about what happened in Hawaii; hopefully that didn't cause too much of an issue), Riku continued to look through the spyglass at the other ship, using one hand to shield the front lens from rain.
"I see Ajora, Kuro Oni, James, an Anthony replica, and a John replica, but there might be more," Riku shouted over the pouring rain and thundering storm. He would have sent the message over the charms, but most of the crew that was with them didn't have any, such as Leon. He handed the spyglass back to Barbossa. "And that's not including the rest of Davy's crew."
"I hate the ocean!" Kuja shouted in frustration as he hovered just off the deck so he wouldn't be affected by the rolling of the ship. He was soaked and obviously not enjoying it.

[Dani :: Atlantica ::Front lines]
As Dani heard Sora give his speech, she was becoming more nervous. Her mind was quickly becoming more unfocused and her body started to shake. "I don't think I can do this," Dani thought as stress and panic ran through her mind.
"You just need to calm down,"Leviathan spoke to the nervous assassin "Remember this is your element. You have a good advantage over some of the enemies here. Besides the others will be there to back you up."
Dani sighed before once again looking to the location of each of the other earthlings. "I know Leviathan," Dani thought quickly "The problem is, what if I screw up? There are many people counting on me because I can use water."
Before Dani could ask anyone else for advice everything seemed to happen at once. Dani looked over to Kyle M nervous. "Kyle," Dani used the charms to talk to the other assassin on the front lines. "Are we going to be okay?"
She was going to wait for an answer but Sora and the soldiers were moving forward. "I guess it is now or never." Dani spoke out loud and swam as quickly as she could to follow Sora and the soldiers. When she reached the army itself Dani pushed her hands together and used a rip tide to push some of the army that was in front of her backwards.
[ Ashley :: Atlantica ::Battlefield]
"Finally" Ashley said behind the army as the battle seemed to commence. Ashley made sure to keep a very good distance away and watched the Geists get stunned by the Roar of Ajora's oringinal. "Not bad," Ashley commented on the earthling "Not as good as Ajora but I can see where Ajora gets his power."
Ashley finally bored with sitting on the sidelines dove into army to get a better view of the opponents. As she finally saw Sora and some soldiers she smirked as she saw her target. "There you are. I hope you are ready. You won't be seeing your friends for a little while~"

{Bobbi .:. Atlantica .:. Above Battlefield}
Adrenaline was a wonderful thing. It heightened the senses, quickened the reflexes, deadened pain. A thrill of excitement went down Bobbi's spine--or maybe it was fear and the adrenaline was warping the emotion. It didn't matter, she just wanted to shoot things, and here were all these lovely targets conveniently provided by Ajora.
And maybe that b*****d was in there somewhere and she could feed him his own intestines.
Gah, no, rage hampers focus. This isn't about vengeance, this is about protecting people and getting James back. Justice above all else, Bobbi, you know that.
She felt the trembling of the quake by the castle via currents in the water, and glanced backwards. She intended it to be a quick glance, but the black spire erupting near the castle caught her attention.
:Jenny! Are you alright back there?: Bobbi called over the charms. It didn't look like the castle was damaged, but the eruption could have caused any number of problems on the inside.
Her attention was again caught by Kyle. Something was off. Wrong. The little lights floating around him seemed to warp and change before her eyes, and she could barely hear the Dragoon screaming. Typically, her mind jumped to the most inane thing imaginable, followed by concern.
"Fus ro dah?"
:Kyle, what's--:
~:MOVE!:~ Shiva yelled, calling her summoner's attention back to where it was technically supposed to be. Bobbi winced, and finished her interrupted question with a burst of wordless emotion--concern, caring, "I'll hold him, you punch"--sent over the charms to Kyle. She focused back on the army.
"Alright, Sayrike, you ready to rumble?" she asked, summoning a sphere of Ice in her hands. She had it grow to about the size of a beach ball before she chucked it at the nearest Geist she could see from up here. It was one of the Grim Reaper type things, and she remembered from the tactics meet that they were bad news and needed to be gotten rid of. The frigid globe connected, and seemed to pass through. With a mental twist that her body echoed, she pulled the sphere back around to hit the damn thing from behind.
As she pummeled the Geist with her spell, she kept half of her attention on the advancing army.
:Kyle's screaming is stunning most of the army,: she relayed via charm to anyone below who could hear her. :The big guys aren't bugged by it. Focus on the Giests, they're our biggest problems right now. If you get a chance to wipe out the small fry, take it, but make anything moving your priority.:

[Noelle .:. Prote ~ Atlantica ~ Battle Grounds ]
Noelle looked back at Kyle in worry, eyes widening as she saw the veins of color across his skin. She didn't have time to focus any more on him, however, because she quickly had nearly been smashed by a large rock--courtesy of a Kinetic. A quick swim to a higher level revealed that the Kinetics were using undersea stones as their main projectiles. That she could help with. Taking to even higher waters, the agromancer focused all her attention on the Kinetics in hopes of destroying them first. The less of them still firing, the less danger her comrades were of being crushed by rocks. Noelle took to gaining control of the large stones the Kinetics were throwing, reversing their projectile pathway so they would come back and strike the Geists that threw them.

{Kuro Oni ; James ; Alex : Dutchman : Deck -> Pearl's Deck}
{{Cue: For Whom the Bell Tolls}}
About the time that Lucian decided to stand next to Kuro Oni a dark portal appeared next to the Nightmare Dreadnought and James. Through the portal stepped Kuro Oni's creation, fashioned in the same likeness as James' brother, Alex. The man stood beside the replica and his "brother" remaining still. His eyes narrowing on the approaching Black Pearl as the rain turned into a massive storm.
"Get ready for it!" Kuro called out as they closed in, already knowing all too well what was coming.
As they approached their target the sea suddenly became quite turbulent. The waters beginning to swirl and spiral angrily downwards. The maelstrom was forming before their very eyes, and they were going right into it.{Davy Jones : Dutchman : At the Wheel} "She'll not harm us. Full pour and into the abyssah!" Davy Jones bellowed with a cackle as he steered the Dutchman so that it was heading straight into the maelstrom that had formed. {Barbossa ; Leon ; Auron ; Gibbs : The Black Pearl : Deck}
The Pirate Lord stood at the helm, his course straight and true as he headed straight for the Dutchman. The proud captain was neither afraid nor deterred by the onset of the severe storm that now battered down upon them. His focus was where it should be, steering the ship."Man the capstan, ready to make top yards! Keep that powder dry!" Gibbs bellowed to the crew, making sure that the orders were heard as the crew ran about the deck making sure the ship was ready for the storm. His attention then turned to the swirling waters that they were approaching. "Maelstrom!" "Brace up yards ya cack headed dinkies! Dying is a day worth living for!" Barbossa bellowed as he kept their course straight and true as they sailed into the maelstrom.Leon had remained where he was, standing at the ready as they sailed towards their target. The weather didn't bother the gunblader so much, it was being on a ship that was new to him though. He knew he would have to focus very hard to not lose his footing, especially as they prepared to sail headlong into the whirlpool that had formed in front of them. He made his way over towards Riku, not an easy feat as the ship began to pitch with the Maelstrom.
"You ready?"As the ships closed in proximity as they sailed around in circles in the maelstrom cannon fire erupted from both ships and both crews began to swing across the expanse, invading both ships and the chaos of battle commenced. Members of Davy Jones' crew, soldiers from the East India Tradiing Company, as well as a swarm of Shadows, Neo-Shadows, and Pirate Heartless began to attack the people aboard the Pearl. {{Cue: Veil of Fire}} Amongst the chaos that had set in aboard the Black Pearl a dark portal appeared and three figures emerged from it. the Nightmare Dreadnought stood in the middle of the three. The Lunar Gunner stood on the right, and his "brother" on the left. James' golden eyes stared aimlessly as the battle began to commence.
"Alright! Come and get it!" Kuro yelled as he immediately began to fight the members of the crew that dared approach him.Alex silently began to immediately strike out and tear into any enemies that he came across. Even if he was cut into he didn't seem to notice. Pain would not register on the Unversed's face as he continued to battle without relent.The tainted gunner was just as emotionless as Alex was as he too began to attack the crew and any one else that approached him. Looking at his hands one would note that they were surrounded by dark energy that seemed to take on the form of claws as he attacked.

[ Kyla: Underwater: Above Atlantica Battlefield ]
Below the waves, yet high enough to see the flicker of movement Kyla realized the army was moving. But even from there they were too distorted in the distance to get a fair enough reading.
Still she wasn’t going to wait for them to get the pounce on her before she lay in her traps. Over the layout of the battle field, Kyla began to stencil in the new objects and obstacles that were to manifest at specifically chosen moments. It all relied on where her allies where, versus the movements of the enemy. Once she saw a moment to attack, she would take it in the way it would most beneficial to their side.
And just like that, the battle began as Kyle charged his own spells. She could feel the drain inside her body as he tugged on her reserves but she handled it perhaps a little better then she was even prepared for.
Still..something didn’t seem right. This was Ajora right? This was remarkably bold and obvious of him. Kyla received his persona to be that of a trickster- all her worried came back nagging at her tenfold! She tried to shake it off. It was lack of sleep, and her anxieties trying to get the best of her again. She couldn’t’ keep fearing the worst, seeing traps everywhere or her hair will go grey at this point.
Kyla turned to observe the physical change in Kyle , attempting to gauge him a little when something cross over hisface, an expression that she was hoping she’d never see right at this moment in time.
Surprise, then shock.
‘What happened?’ the answer came before she could even finish that thought! The castle began to shake! Kyla spun around and looked down at the shuddering fortress of spiraling coral spires as it suddenly sprouted what looked like a another one!?
“ But that’s… impossible!?” No, it wasn’t was it? She remembered that time back on the beach. Back when a dozen of Ajora’s assailed them picking off hairs from the new additions and a horrible sense of guilt pierced her. “…this can’t be. Kyle we- Kyle?!”
He looked like he was about to collapse! “Kyle! Hey-“ but just before she could even swim to him he was suddenly back, like the power flickering off and on, before a major power surge blew up all the lights inside him! He..was..MAD. And a Mad Kyle was a SCARY Kyle!
DIE!!! He roared with the voice a giant dragon’s howl that nearly blew Kyla forward, being that she was RIGHT in front of him after all! He began his assault on them and a searing burning sensation carried over through their seal connection. Kyla grit her teeth knowing something like this was supposed to happen, she expected as much and turned her attention back to the fight.
She unleashed the first hail of Birn Strikes; they rose out of the coral below this time, like a school of angry fish suddenly being disturbed. Even underwater they seemed to be aflame and flew like a flurry of tiny seeker missiles at the minor minions. Next she would intercept the much larger prey- she just hoped the elemental alignment with Bobbi would work… it about time to test it out.

[Axel: Black Pearl: Deck]
No one being hurt? These were pirates right? That statement was as true as a peace treaty being signed by Ajora himself! If he didn’t know any better he would have snprted.
But it seemed with that the games began! Bought time, he was starting to ACTUALLY FEEL BORED…maybe. But now they were stuck in a Mexican standoff- he held his Chakram at the ready but at least 2 pistols were pointed at his head.
“You just cool your head now red- you hear?” one of the crewmen muttered.
“….you serious?” He asked with a brow quirked.
However the standoff did not last and now the deck was a flurry of sheer crazy- with a new set of entries which he wasn’t so sure he should attack or not. Once things for certain- Riku didn’t seem pleased with their arrival. They were stopping the play out of events which was normal for this world- ….and thatssss bad right?
However just as soon as the tables were turned, they were turned right back- and then… it was Calypso’s time to shine! He watched as the woman grew into a towering figure more than 10 times their size, and then disintegrated into crabs over the sides of the ship.
“So she was some sort of goddess of the sea?” He moved to the edge and looked over- wondering what her release would mean for those swimming with fins down below.
Then not moments later it was time for war! As the colors were hoisted and the wind picked up against his back Axel plastered his smiling façade to his face for no other reason then perhaps to feint the gesture of confidence for those around him. Maybe Blondie would appreciate it.
With his thoughts on allies, Axel looked up towards the crow’s nest- “pfff.. Coward… pretending to be afraid is beyond pathetic.” He mumbled with a shake of his head.
As the ships began to enter the whirlpool and the rest of the non crew stood at the ready for an attack, which came right to them! It Appeared out of a dark portal to his adjacent. Three interesting visitors, one who looked familiar- who minced no words and began cutting down crew like swatting flies.
Now that’s just rude.
Axel turned about and whistled in the direction of his “commander” Leon, like a heads up before making his introduction to their three new guests.
“ Names Axel- got it memorrrr-...uh?”
Ok this was..odd. What was an earthling doing helping these goons? Did he switch sides?
No time to ask- they were killing people left and right. He made his first charge at them, this time calling Leon and Riku- " Hey! Heroes we got a situation back here!"
