(*NOTE* This thread is a continuation of the Pearl and Zeus threads. If you are not up to speed on these plots see my Bio for a summary. This will be the stage for the second, and final battle (i say that all the time) between Captain Michael Richman and Admeral Kibo Botch. Prepare yourselves, Pirates of Tortuga!)
Tortuga
Drunks are roaming the streets trying to remember where they lived as the bars kick out their last customers to close for a few hours. It's still a few hours until sunrise, and an eerie fog hangs over the island.
Tortuga's Coast
Two ships sail through the fog, away from a massive shadow sitting just out of the island's sight. The Orochi and the Pearl reach the island of tortuga within the hour. Michael stands on deck, dressed rather slobish, wearing a brown wig and hat pulled down to cover his face.
Tortuga
As crewmen begin docking the two ships, Michael scanns over the town, just as he left it... unfortunatly.

Tortuga's Coast
Daniel walks up beside Michael, looking on. A translucent soul of Kibo's peeks around the corner, and opens his eyes wide as he looks at the man who's crew he had fought before. He tries to run, but Daniel was already in front of him, the curse marks covering his body.
Daniel: Well, look what we have here.
He places a hand on the spirit's forehead, and the soul disappears, completely destroyed.

Michael stands behind Daniel.
"excellent work, but it may be wiser to keep your talents hidden. We don't want to give Botch the slightest clue we are here. Jesse!"
*Jesse stepps down from the Orochi, he is not wearing a disguise.*
"Go find my good friend, Mr. Botch."
Jesse: "You heard him girls."
*The voice of Chaos giggles as Jesse and several crewman (disguised as regular drunks) head into town.*

Daniel: Yessir. How foolish of me.
The curse mark recedes, leaving the two standing there as Jesse leaves down an alleyway.

*Michael leans in so that only Daniel can hear him.*
"I am sure that you, of all people, know that Mr. Ranu, and Ms. Storm can not be trusted to remain loyal to me indefinatly. So, i want you to keep a close eye on both of them, and should either of them show any sign of mercy..."
*Michael stood up straight and began to walk into the town.*
"...Put that dagger i gave you to good use."

Storm joined him, sliding her arm through his, all conpaionably like. She had changed from her normale pantaloons and long-sleeved tunic into a High Lord's mistress evening gown. Her now shortened hair was even well trimed and pulled back with two expensive looking combs.
Storm's normal armada of rings had been reduced to a mere two per hand, and only one set of earings in her many pieced pointed ears. Even the harim of necklaces had been cut down to one simple silver and jade inlade chocker.
"Now really, is that any way to talk of a lady? And behind her back too! What a foul little man you are."
She giggled like Michael had told just the most hilarious joke.

"And you expect me to trust in having you on my side until the bitter end? After all this while you've known me, how could you take me for such a fool? You stabbed me in the back last time, I am merely returning the favor."

Storm glanced over at Micahel, before returning her gaze to the road. She was still smiling.
"Stabbing you in the back? Why, I see no dagger sheath there."

((I figured we can't start the battle without your opponent in the thread...))
Daniel steps back. He had no knowledge of anything before Michael's signing of him, so he figured it'd be best to stay out of it.
---Meanwhile---
Kibo walks through the streets. As he rounds a corner, a drunk falls into him. Kibo grimaces, and shoves the man off to the side.
Kibo: How charming...

('bout time. Be sure to get Natahsa and all of your other people in here)
"I meant metaphorically, you left my side to aid Kibo. If I recall you even blew up that gift I gave to you, and killed one of my captains. Is that not betrayal?"
-Meanwhile-
Jesse watched on a few doors away, scanning the fface on the picture in his hand and comparing it to the man standing before him.
"Gotcha..."

Kibo glances over at the man holding his picture before him, and looks at him curiously.
Kibo: Can I help you, lad?

"Depends, am i speaking with THE Ademiral Kibo Botch?"
Jesse continued to hold the picture out in front of him, Michael would not tolerate a mistake.

Kibo: Yeah, that's me. Who're you?
A dagger slid, hidden, from his sleeve into his hand.

*Jesse lowered the photo slightly and extended his hand.*
Jesse: "I am captain Jameson, of the Orochi. My crew and i was seperated from our fleet a few months ago. Now i am looking for a new one, i have heard great things about yours."

Storm gave a shrug, completely unrepentant.
"You were losing and it was in my best interest to keep away from that. You and I bother know Botch wouldn't have belived me if I had not made some show of my 'honour.' I could have done much worse, yet I did not. You would have done the same, I am thinking, if our positions were reveresed."
