Serious: The Dire Desperados Ch2 - Desperate Battle for the Desperados, the First Rivals Emerge (Closed)

"HEY!" Avis barked, hastily storming over to the men that were locking up the Crisis. "Keep your filthy mitts off of MY ship unless I give you permission, dammit!" She marched up to the short man who seemed to be leading the operation, and stared him down at him fiercly. Unhappy about the possibility of loosing custody of the ship twice in less than two days to say the least, she threateningly gave the man a solid poke in the chest.

It took Avery some time to reach the docks, he stopped a few times to look through various stores and flaunt himself in front of some women, none of which were successful attempts. A couple of crew members came into view as he neared the docks, " OI OI!! Guys!! " he said, still yet oblivious to what the men around them were doing. " What the hell is going on! " Avery thought. With a quick few strides across the dock he stood next to his nakama, by the tone in his captains voice he could tell she was displeased.

" Want me to cut em' up? " a dark shadow fell in his face as he talked. Avery's right hand gently caressed the hilt of his katana, while his left gripped a bottle of sake.

the man was suddenly surrounded bu tough looking guards with spears all bearing the crest of the Wu Shang clan . He raised his glasses and looked at Avis "Are you the owner of this vessel? if so, i must ask you to pay the fee of 10,000,000 beli for docking here.... that is the law for pirates to dock here....."

"Black Tiger ripping strike....." As Feng struck out at Daisuke with his hands, palms up, Jace decided that he was probably in the wrong place. He turned and ran off.

"Why do I always get into trouble like this?" he muttered. "I give up. I'm headed back to the ship."

(Speaking of trouble....the ship isn't all that great a place to be either, huh? )

((Either way, we will be going to get the ship out soon, by the way, Jace will be fighting Feng later in the story, that will be a good battle))

((That ought to be fun! Bring him on! Heheheheheheheheheheh...)

Dontae stood behind Alvis and Killlua he touched his gun but didn't unsheathe he wanted Alvis to make the first move, he wanted to shoot first and ask question later like he used to but he respected his captains wishes and didn't make a move he only stood there and listen to see what would happen next..

The frog was angry. Its sleep had been disturbed, and now these men were poking him pointy sticks. It's tough hide kept most of them at bay, but the frog was feeling disoriented already. Still, the anger at being so unfairly woken up with pointy sticks was enough to keep Ryo fighting. It had already leaped off the ship, and was now wreaking havoc on the landing spot. The sleeper darts and the spears mostly didn't penetrate it's hide, but the odd dart had gotten through the frog's tough hide.
Dynar witnessed the scene. He ran over to the men trying to restrain the frog, who was already drifting out of consciousness. "Don't mess with my frog!" Dynar yelled, picking two dartgun shooters up with his hair and throwing them down. "Who is responsible for this?" He looked around angrily. The frog tried a lazy swipe at one of the men, throwing him down for a second. Then Ryo collapsed.

One of the men who was blwon abck got back up slowly, that thing could sure pack a punch.
They keep shooting sleeping darts and tranquilizers at the frog and spear it with tranquilizers. The man then said "I recommend you keep your thing down now.... before we use heavy weapons on it....... you will listen to what i say , do you own this ship? And it looks like you do... you must pay the fine before i give it to you ....... it is the price of pirates landing on this island as is decreed by Wu shang law."

Dontae appeared behind the man holding a gun to his head"call off your men before you end up dieing in the spot" Dontae cocked his gun and waited for a responce

The man surprised Daisuke when he suddenly appeared right in front of him. Before he could react, Daisuke was hit by a mighty blow that sent him flying, making him hit a wall violently. Daisuke has never been hit by one blow so mighty that it nearly knocked him out. As he fell on the ground, he groggily thought, "Damn, he got me this time....But I'll win win the next time we meet..." Then Daisuke feigned a death until all hostiles left.

The guards then all placed spears aimed at Dontaes neck. It was 10 against one, so he couldnt possibly move "You do not understand you fool,we on this island are all masters at martial arts, something as trivial as guns do not scare us. Who is your leader, if he does not take control of you now, you will not be leaving here ..... at least not in one piece anyway......."

Feng then wrapped up his coat "Well , for now...... this will do, he is probably dead....... you engineer!!! fix the generator....... or i will rip your head off!!!!" Feng licked the blood on his fingers. he was in utter ecstasy,more blood to quench his bloodlust.

"Dontae!" Jace dropped down on top of one of the men surrounding the marksman. "Finally!" Jace said. "I've been looking all over for you guys! By the way...who are these people?" He waved a hand, indicating the spear wielding men.

"Ten... million?!" Avis stood flabbergasted, and nearly incapable of any form of speech. "You can't possibly expect us to pay that in such short notice! And what's with locking up our ship and harming the crew before we even have a chance?!" she shouted with protest. This was wrong in nearly every way, and it seriously started to test her patience. The scene was only made worse when she saw Ryo and Dynar struggling and Dontae being threatened at spear point. Grinding her teeth, she grabbed the collar of the short man's shirt and pulled him in so the only thing he could see was her furious face.

"You will take us to Fei Wu Shang, and in turn we'll try our best to follow without making much of a scene," Avis growled. She wasn't going to leave the island until the situation resolved and apologies given.

The man did look for an instant he was going to say something , but then signalled to his men , and they placed their spears upwards. the man brushed aside Dontaes weapons. "Tell your men to be civilized before i tell mine to stop being civilized.... we are going now...." The man lead the way.

Killua said nothing, he had learnt in these affairs long ago, never to say much. It makes things worst. Killua though was curious as to the leader of these Wu shang people.

Meanwhile in the main dojo. fei was informed of the happenings and allowed for this appeal by these pirates to take place. Not that she was simply going to give their ship back to them, she was however going to listen to what they had to say.

Dynar was angry, but the frog had collapsed and didn't move, though as a doctor he could see that it was just the sleep drug working. He looked around, that man leading the whole process was the current target of his anger. He was about to draw guns and fire, but held himself long enough to think it through. He stood next to the collapsed frog, but let his hair fall down.

Dontae lowered his gun and looked over at Alvis he didn't say anything he simply put his hands in his pocket and waited for Alvis to make a move

Jace saw the men moving away, so he stepped off of the man he was standing on, helped him up, and sent him on his way. Jace looked around. There didn't seem to any injuries, except for that big frog, which was lying on its side. Jace walked over to Dynar and looked at the large creature.

"Is he going to be alright?" Jace asked Dynar.

"My men are the ones being uncilivized?! What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Avis snarled with exasperation. The entire island seemed to be filled to the brim with arrogant people able to drive her up the wall. She took a deep breath before turning to the rest of the crew. "We're going to be the bigger people, and not beat them down into the dirt... Even though they greatly deserve it," she grumbled half heartedly through her teeth. "Let's just see how this Fei woman is before we pass judgment."

"He is. They just used a sleep drug." Dynar replied to Jace, anger still visible in his tone. He turned to his captain. "I can try." He looked at his frog. He looked sad and angry. He couldn't take the frog with him. And he probably couldn't stay here to care for it. He would shoot someone in the chain yet for this...

The man lead the way through the town. there were people watching, taking bets and just observing casually. the ma lead them up the hill to a giant door which read WU SHANG. The door opened and there was a giant oriental style building inside, with a garden and a training courtyard where disciples were performing stances. The man lead them into the main hall of the building where there were people training on the sides of the hall. In the middle of the big hall was a platform where a calm , beautiful , oriental girl sat, on her chair. to her right was A man with a pony tail and a traditional Chinese attire and to her left was Feng the burly big looking man who was yawning. Fei who was in the chair then spoke "what is it that you want?"

" Can someone fill me in on whats going on? Who in our crew pissed these Wu Shang guys off? " Avery had no objection to being escorted, he simply followed without retaliation. With passage through the large doors Avery gazed around at the garden in the court yard, all the martial artists intrigued him.

Entering the building with the long hallway and platform, Avery walked leading the crowd behind him. Tipping up his new conical straw hat he looked over the women sitting in the chair.

" Hey Lady, You the one sitting down! " He pointed. " Can I offer you some cheap sake? Finest I've come across in a while " Smiling as he talked. He had no intention of answering her first question, it wasn't his place anyhow.

(OOPS read your post wrong, had to edit~)

Alice gulped but kept her face emotionless as she walked over to fix the generator. After a couple of minutes, it was fixed. "Done." Without even asking if she could go home, she left, dragging the man away it her.

"He's probably a pirate. His attitude kind of shows that and besides, marines don't come here, so it's a good place for a pirate to be... well, as long as they don't do anything to aggravate the Wu-whatevers." She placed him on a cart she found and started looking for his crew.

The girl spotted a group of people following the Wu Shang members. Curious, she started following them, forgetting to find the man's crew.

Daisuke was aware he was being taken to another place. After a few minutes, the ride suddenly stopped. He looked around, no one in sight. Daisuke got out of the cart and was still furious at the burly man that nearly knocked him out, then he began to plot his revenge. "Damn it, I have to be more careful next time... He might pull off that move again, and I might wake up dead if I got hit." Daisuke walked off in search of something to kill time again.

"Thank you, Dynar. We shouldn't be away from Ryo very long... And what exactly have you two been up to, anyways?" Avis asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. "I'm hoping all that isn't yours, Jace." She pointed out the blood on his face and hands, mildly concerned about how it could have gotten there. What concerned her more, however, was Avery's ridiculous choice of attire.

Maybe it wasn't the best idea to leave him unsupervised for long periods of time. This thinking only increased when Avery offered Fei some of his sake. Horrified, Avis grabbed his hat so he couldn't proceed any further. "Are you trying to insult her? At least offer her some of the good stuff," she muttered quietly. Hoping that the woman wasn't already insulted, Avis smiled for good measure.

"I believe there's been a bit of a misunderstanding, you see," she began as pleasantly as possible, taking a step forward as she did so. "We just fought our way of a cyclone earlier and simply intended to rest peacefully here for a day. There wasn't anything posted in the port indicating a docking fee to my knowledge, yet some men of yours came to lock up our ship and put a monstrous frog onboard at the time to sleep due to an 'unpaid fee'. I simply ask for our vessel to be returned and an apology to Dynar, the owner of the frog." Looking at Fei expectantly, Avis wasn't going to take a simple 'no' as an appropriate answer.
