west coast shelter (Crimson King's escaped crew)

[StarHopper]

*crimson king stood and looked at where he winked back in at. he was satisfied, enough of the 'corns of his ship made it, so he would have a crew when he rebuilt his ship.*

that's it, he thought to himself, i am no longer going to even try kidnapping. hopefully vrolok made it out of that battle. and hopefully, she killed that palace guard. there's something about him i really don't like.

*crimson king looked aorund the area, hunting for supplies. there was a stream, fresh, he hoped, and wood readily available. fish and vegatation was going to be his diet for qite a while, but matters could be worse.*

((Can I join you with a few of his crew? The other injured ponies washing up on shore are also part of his crew.))

[StarHopper]

(of course! what kind of thread woulr this be if there was nobody else in here but me?)

[tahlise]

((Thanks. Is it ok if I stamp my own characters?))

[StarHopper]

(lol, you are admin! i'm just a mod... )

[Storm Runner]

((Mind if i join with my pirate? I'll post just in case. Though be aware that I'm disappearing next week again lol))


Tequila Sunset sloshed out of the water, her feathers sodden. She shook herself off, straightened her red bandana and walked over to Crimson, checking all her weapons were there. She just wouldnt be the same without her weapons.

[StarHopper]

*crimson king nodded to tequila. one more good, trustworthy pirate from his crew. he hoped more would come, surly not all went down with the ship, and hopefully, enough would get away from the beach. *

"my plan was perhaps more than we could handle at the time. i have learned something, sunset. i have learned a lot. we will rebuild, we will have another ship. my kingdom will float again. we will not be confined to land."

*he sook out his mane, and turned to give orders to the few others that made it to this side of the island. he would go around the island himself, after a few changes to his looks.*

[Storm Runner]

Tequila Sunset stayed quiet, but nodded silently.

[StarHopper]

"right, then. you find somewhere to build your shelter. i'll have some of the ponies who know what they are doing head your direction."

*he wandered off, making sure everyone was doing a job.*

[Storm Runner]

Sunset nodded. She understood. The orange and red pegasus walked over to a suitable place and started to construct a basic shelter, but just gathered branches for the moment.


[[ooc: Blackbird cont. from Surfacing... ]]


The young mer-alicorn walked painfully up the beach, following her friend Parchment. They had both been cabin-ponies on the ship which had, until recently, been sailing away from the island with the youngest princess on board. Blackbird was 8 years old, the same age as Princess Crescent Moon.
The little one walked on, eyes half closed now in pain. She hadnt been in so much pain a while ago, with Parchment's magic healing the gash on her shoulder. It would scar. At the moment both of Blackbird's wings were broken, broken because of the panic of the young one's tricky escape from the ship. Blackbird knew that Parchment's magic wasnt strong enough to heal both of her wings right. She had been down in the galley at the time of the crushing, and so had gotten the worst of the impact.
Green eyes look forward to where her friend was, picking out the creamy body and beinge and brown hair easily.
Parchment wait up!

[Horseshadow]

Parchment swooped low to the ground. Her flying a little wonky and muddled up because of the tear in her wing, partily healed with her healing powers, but still a red mark with a few gaps that were to wide for her not fully developed powers to close up. She tried to land when a gust of cold wind ran over the rip, causing a sudden pain to sweep over her. She folded in her wings a few feet from the ground and droped th last bit Ow! she complained, glancing at her wing, seeing no further damage Ok, flying is dangrous for a little while she giggled, stopping to let Blackbird catch up. Come on! she encouraged, shaking some more of the water in her hair out. She peeked at Blackbird through a sopping wet forlock and walked back to join her friend, blowing a biege loch of hair out of her face.

((I'm going to bring in Charming and his two shipmates. They are pirates from Crimson King's ship.))

[Horseshadow]

(Ok *Waves at Charming and his shipmates*)

[StarHopper]

*crimson king looked at his little camp. there were so many missing from his ship.... his kingdom. they all relied on him for guidance and shelter, and he had let them down. he stamped a hoof on the ground. if only he wasn't so weel known to the islander ponies, he would see if there were any survivors on the beach. he looked around at the pirates left. maybe some of them would not be recognized... but, then again, this seemed like such a tight knit society, they would be recognized as strangers. he shook out his mane*

"if anyone here has any idea about finding any more survivors without getting yourselves caught, let me know now." *he said to the camp in general.*

[Horseshadow]

Parchment snorted and ran on ahead Your taking to long! she cried, her playful nature taking over. She jumped around ahead of Blackbird and giggled Come on, Blackie!

"if anyone here has any idea about finding any more survivors without getting yourselves caught, let me know now."

Parchment ran up to the captin of the Crimson Tide. I can transform she grinned, gradully chancing her appearence so she looked like Blackbird. She laughed and ran back to where Blackbird was Which ones which? she joked, changing back again But I can't use the other ponys powers, only my own she said in a matter-of-factly tone.
