A kidnapping! The Black Horde strikes!

(Well, I guessed that, since that's not one of their usual missions, they'd travel with a normal ship. Plus, I didn't really think they'd sail it themselves. I mean, someone'd drop them off, right? But I'm sorry if you didn't intend it.)

(I was thinking they'd be sailing on Code Black for this one too.)

Kave stood on the prow of the Code Black and sighted the other ship through a telecope. He could see one particular man ordering the others around, who he deemed to be Vladomir. The target himself.
he cursed his lack of ranged attacks, and stood more prominently up, wondering if he could see a destination the enemy ship might be heading for. he felt quite exposed to attack, standing so forward and high up on the ship.

(Oh well, let's just pretend she was talking to the other members of Grey Code, or something.)

"Argh. We're never going to catch them like this." Zero grumbled, then he seemed to get an idea. "What's the distance? Could we fire a grappling hooks that far, with ropes?" He questioned the rest of the crew.

Patrizia looked at the ship and narrowed her eyes.
"Hmmm.... I'm not sure, it could be risky. Well, I personally can wim, but I know some of you fine gentlemen have eaten a devilfruit, correct?"
She looked at each one of them directly.
"In case it doesn't work, that would be a problem, but still, we can't let them escape. So, I'm in."

"I can swim as well, and if we even get some of us there, we could be able to force them to stop... Fire the grappling hooks!!"

A yawn rang slowly made its way from the lower deck onto the upper one, "Way to bright up here, why i hate these desert islands." the man said as he slid on his red tinted sunglasses. He looked around to see the other ship, the reason why they were over here. He walked over to the rest of his group wile taking a drink out of the flask in his pocket before returning it. It was Sir two or formally Jensen.
"Ill rather not swim if i do say so myself Miss Patrizia, id rather not get my suit dirty. And theres faster ways to get over that kind of distance than swimming. Unless you want me to just stand on one of your backs, would be easier for me." he said chucling a bit wile he lit a cigerette with a match.

"No I'm going to run on the ropes. I have no devil fruit. I'll be safe."

Patrizia nodded.
"I'm going, as well."
She glared two with a hint of anger. He was making this whole meeting less perfect.
"You're late! Well, have you had your beauty sleep, then?"
Her voice was dripping with sweetness, but it sounded more like sweet hissing then talking.
"And! If I might be so blunt to add, that's still dame six for you, Sir Two!"
She said all that with a soft smile on her face, hiding her aggression well, but not entirely.

"To be honest i could use a few more hours, if you wanted perfection you should get some yourself. Perhapps we could get some together Miss Patrizia Haha." he said making a joke. "You only wish. If you want to hide anger Miss Six you need to get rid of the fold between you eyelashes, makes things ovious."
"So Zero, what is the plan here once we are over there? I dont think that our pirate friends will just want to give up thier fancy prize so easly. Im assuming that the princesses protection is priority, then the pirates?" he said.

"We need to first stall them so we can get the rest of the crew onboard. Then we can conduct the rescue mission. I wouldn't want to get deep in there with a half strength crew."

"I think that we could do that mutch, Though i have to say stalling abilitys get boring and lengthy at times just make sure whoever were waiting on get there at a decent time." he said pulling out his flask again and taking a drink of it, he shuck his head a little bit. "I do not think that this is my flask...no it isnt...Oww well bottoms up."

As he watched the apporaching ship come about, Vladimir glared in anger and then however had an idea. "Turn about, come face 180 degrees helms man!" he ordered. "What? Captain why?" the helmans asked. "Don't quesiton orders just do it. The helmans nodded and turned the Ghost Ship to face the incoming vessel as well as the remains of the Arbasta ship. Vladimir smiled and then motioned to a pirate and said, "Ready the Charon's Breath." The pirate nodded excitedly and smiled as he ran off. As the ship got closer Vladimir waited until they where in perfect range. As the ship started to apporach the wrecked Arabasta ship, Vladimir smiled evilly.

"FIRE!" he shouted. As he did, the eyes of the skeleton carved into the wood of the Ghots ship's front seemed to flash black. Then it happened, a torrent of black fire shot form the skeleton's mouth and struck the remains of the Arabasta ship. The ship lit up like ply wood and the black fire spread due to bruning fuel into the water causing the top of the water to burn as well. Vladimir smiled as he saw a wall of black fire seperating the Ghost Ship and the Marine Ship. "Sha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Thank you my friends for allowing me to test that, I had been hoping to use to for some time now" he called out to the Marine ship.

"Turn about and head for faster water, we will recuperate and send our message" Vladimir said as he turned walked to the mast. he placed his hand on it as the Ghost Ship turned and started to pick up speed away from the Marine ship. "The black fire burns so perfectly don't you agree" he said to Troy. He then made a whistling noise and the Vulture Man zombie appeared again. Vladimir handed the zombie a note and pointed towards the Marine ship.

The vulture man noded and started to fly to the ship with the ransom note deep in it's talons and as it flew over the ship dropped it onto the deck before flying back toawrds the Ghost Ship. "70,000,000 is a fair price to ask for a princess these days, wouldn't you agree" he again asked Troy. As he did Vladimir looked at the necklace in his hand. A gold chain hooked around a large red emerald with a seal that was shaped like the sun. He had taken it form the princess when he had pinched her shoulder in secret. He smirked as he pocketed the necklace.

Killua sat down "We better hurry captain, storm is coming, we need to port the ship in the next hour somewhere safe...."

"Damnit!"
Patrizia made sure that the curse was so quiet it could barely be heard.
"They're escaping, Zero! They're getting away!"
Her anger was obvious. She couldn't let such a small thing ruin the mission, but there wasn't any way around it.
She narrowed her eyes and watched a most curious creature fly towards their ship. Did it want to attack? No, it was alone...
It dropped something on their deck. A note. She picked it up carefully and handed it to Zero without reading it.

Troy walks over and sits beside Killua "i agree" just then Gin appeared beside
Troy with a jug of sake in his hand " Sir your sake" Troy looks at Gin and nids he then looks back over at Vladimir " So where are we headed" Troy then sips on the sake and waited for the answer..

Zero looked at the note. "Dame. Six.." Zero gave the note back "I am entrusting this ship to you for now. We haven't lost yet. Find a way to their ship" He jumped up into the mast, and leaped at the Ghost Ship blasting off with the full power of two breath dials propelling one person. "Appears I aimed pretty much right." Zero was at the apex of the jump and was now falling towards the ghost ship.

Troy hears one of the crew members yell and he turns around to
see a flying marine " you've got to be shitting me" Troy says while taking another sip of his sake he then yells and ask Gin to get his spear from his room

Zero flew down towards the back of the ship, rather directly towards one of a crewmember. He pulled an impact dial and blasted it at the crewmember, breaking his fall at the same time. A zombie attacked him, but being in the back end of the ship, he kicked the creature overboard.

Troy appears in front of Zero as soon as he kicked the zombie overboard he had his cup of sake in one hand and his spear in the other " man you've got to be the stupidest marine or the bravest to aboard a ship full of enemies now ill give you one shot you can leave now or die your choice" Troy then takes another sip of his sake....

"Leave or die.." Zuro crossed his arms, pressing his wrists, making blades appear from above his hand inside the black suit "No." He punched at troy with the wristblade, at about chest height.

Troy easily dodge the attack by turning to the side "so... it's going to be that way huh" Troy then drinks the rest of his sake and throws the cup overboard he then looks back a zero " you know you might can take me one on one but my captain will come soon and you won't be able to take both of us

"True" Zero responds turning backwards, suspended on his arms, and kicking forth like a coiled snake. "Why would stay and fight like that?"

Troy dodge Zero's attack at the last second "What the hell was that" Troy stood looking at Zero confusing "Before this goes any further let me ask you something, are you an assassin?" Troy stands there waiting for the answer...
