The woman didn't believe in lying. To anyone. Her people felt no reason to lie. It was almost like they were incapable of it. But they could still avoid the truth in different ways. The blade of the knife cut into the skin of her bottom lip. It stung as the blood dripped from her lip and onto her folded hands. Her confidence was fleeting. Thessa's voice shook as she opened her mouth again. "I do not wish to see you dead. But, you are in danger of angering my people more than you have already" She explained. It wasn't just the men and women on this ship that have caused the problems. They were one of many variables that caused damage to the sea. To the world. "Playing with words may work on men," Kali tutted with a shake of her head as she pulled away from Thessa. She grabbed the other woman's wrist with a strong grip and yanked her hand onto the table, splaying it flat. "But they won't work on me. Answer one of my questions the next time you speak or else I will start cutting off fingers!" She slammed the knife down into the table, Just barely missing Stabbing Thessa's fingers. "Do I make myself clear?" She hissed.

"You are a strange one, aren't you?" Santiago chuckled, closing his eyes at the kiss on his temple, shivering at how cold those lips were against his still hot skin. They started their slow trip towards the kitchen, Fletcher seeming to be genuinely careful so he wouldn't tear anything else. The soft white bandages that covered his wound were now soaked with blood, and that was because a few stitches had torn. Yet he was still up and walking, which was actually pretty surprising. He risked a glance upwards, noticing the smile was carefully hidden as they were around the others. He saw it, but to the others it was a neutral mask.

(How badly do you wanna cut her finger off? No matter what I would let you cut one of her fingers off. Something Magical might happen ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) Thessa weighed her options. She could lose her fingers and stay faithful to her people and her king. Or she could listen to the woman in front of her as she took her hand and slammed it onto the table, the knife not landing too far away from her fingers. She sucked in a breath and looked wide-eyed up at Kali. She had to answer one of the questions. One that would be truthful and yet vague enough to satisfy this person before her. "Yes, my people are natives to the sea in your path to El Dorado" She answered finally her teeth gritted and her voice shaky. She was used to this sort of hostility towards her. At least not to this extreme. Most people usually listen to her... ( I wasn't really planning on cutting a finger off but if ur saying magic will cause it to grow back or something then For sure I'm in xD) "Native to the sea huh?" Kali's eyes sparkled with interest for a moment before it went away and was replaced with a knowing look. "Well that answers one of my questions." She pulled her knife out of the table and swiftly sliced it down, cutting off Thessa's pinky finger near the base. "Three more questions to go. And don't make me repeat myself."

(Niiiiiice Love that... might use it as a game mechanic in a game about Sirens eventually xDDDD)
Kali narrowed her eyes as she watched the finger disapear into thin air. She turned back to Thessa. "A sea witch eh?" She snarled and leaned in close. "You didn't peg me as the luring sailors to their deaths kinda girl." She bared her teeth in a grin and started to press the blade into Thessa's ring finger, not enough to sever it but enough to cause pain. "Doesn't matter. You'll tell me if your people know where El Dorado is, won't you? Otherwise I'll pull you apart... piece by piece and watch you grow back together like a starfish... over and over and over again till you are nothing but scars and tears."

IC: Chase quickly walked out behind her with a smile, gesturing with his head for the boy to come as well. Didn't want to get him stuck in here when the place blew to smitherines. When he saw the officers come around and see them he smiled and twirled the spear in his hand. Three officers, thee pirates. What a perfect match. Glancing at the other two for a moment, he ran forward to meet the one closest to him. This was the part he loved so much. Jumping up he kicked the mans chest, which sent him stumbling back. That gave Chase enough time to regain his balance and hit the man in the chin once before twirling it behind his back and repeating the hit on another part of his body. He did that a few times before he finally hit him as hard as he could in the side of his head at the temple, which was what made him fall to the ground.

Henry would have expressed some sort of annoyance at being called 'kid' but that would only make him sound childish. Besides, in pirate terms, he supposed he would seem like a kid to the two older captains.
When they met the three officers, Hal grinned too. He didn't much like hand-to-hand combat but with the other two pirates alongside him, the man couldn't really lose. This gave him new confidence as he moved to meet the nearest officer.
Now, if Henry did have to fight, his advantage might not be power or strength, but he did have speed on his side. He was young and not bulky or muscular, giving him the advantage of speed. He utilised it as best he could, taking the first move before the other man could even react. He kept the man distracted with fast sparring while he moved his foot until it was near the guard's leg, allowing him to whip the guard's leg out from underneath him and send him falling to the hard stone ground. When he hit that floor he would hopefully be knocked unconscious, but all they needed was to get all three guards on the ground so they could get past them.

Santiago stiffened considerably as they headed below deck, the arm he had wrapped around the other tightened its grip on the shirt, although to anyone else the pirate probably seemed just a bit tired, but perfectly fine. His stomach growled at the smell of the kitchen, his need for food over coming his fear of being down here, his own stomach growling loudly as he looked around the busy quarters. It wasn't anything like the kitchen on his ship, where everything was chaos and really only Santiago was allowed in because the chef didn't want anyone messing up hisncooking areas. "Smells good," he murmured in Spanish, more to himself than anything.

Thessa whimpered and did her best to calm her panicked breath. She was gritting her teeth so hard she thought she would pull a muscle in her jaw. She just couldn't ignore the pain pulsing from her finger. She didn't want more pain to come from her so she should just give the woman what she wants. But, then she would be bestowing weakness upon herself and look like a fool. No, she could keep her mouth shut for a little longer. "If you wish to insult me, I insist that you try harder" Thessa huffed out. She opened her eyes only to narrow them at Kali.
Zenobia ducked under the charging soldier's sword and turned to kick him in the rear, knocking him even more off balance. The guard managed to catch himself from falling and whirled around to attack again. The pirate was too fast for him though. She stepped to the side of his sword jab and countered with her own swords. She fought with him for a little bit before disarming him and plunging the sword in her right hand into his side. She had no mercy to give to such a foul creature. With a shuddering gasp and a hand gripping her coat, the man looked at her with pleading eyes before finally falling to his knees and dying. Zenobia looked at him with distain before stepping over his body and starting into a jog. "We're going to have even less time. They'll be looking for us." She said not waiting to see if the boys were following. She remembered the layout of this part of the Fort. So in no time they were in front of the door that leads to all the weapons and ammunition that the officer's used. Opening the door, Zeno almost sprinted down the stairs to the lower floor. "Spread out" she ordered " Find all the powder kegs and gun powder you can and put in a pile closest to the door."
The cook looked over his shoulder to see the Commodore and Santiago standing in the doorway. He had black hair cut close to his scalp, an unshaved face, and a cold green eye. Singular eye because he only had one eye. The spot where his left eye should have been was occupied with a worn out looking eyepatch. Looking his visators up and down, the cook scowled and turned away. "Go away" He growled. His voice low and threatening with a Dutch accent. Pointing his knife toward Santiago he narrowed his eyes. "I've heard about you, pirate. I don't want you rummaging through my things. I don't care how hungry you are" The man hissed in Spanish. (MEET THE NEW CHARACTER ON BOARD! I didn't plan for him to become a character but I liked him way too much as I was typing this)

(Bless! XD)
Santiagos eyes narrowed slightly, clearly unimpressed at the mans firsts attempts of insulting him. His little stance? Really? He couldn't try something he hadn't heard before? Of course it was aggravating, not being given the respect that he'd earned a long time ago. But "big" men were all the same- they would see the tiny, feminine Egyptian and think that they could just push him around. Then he said something that caused Santi to absolutely bristle and his eyes hardened, his face turning into a rather dangerous snarl. Did he just call him a mouse? He let out a low growl, not even listening to Fletchers introductions, his entire demeanor changing. He wasn't even paying attention to the pain in his side as he darted forward, pushing past Fletcher and going directly for the larger man. The palm of his hand went for the mans forehead, and the moment the larger man stumbled he pressed two fingers down right behind his collarbone into the sensitive muscle there, forcing the other man down as he pressed down and used his other hand to twist an arm backwards painfully. Soon the man was on the floor with Santi on top of him, a rather dangerous look on his face. "Who's the mouse now, soplagaitas?" He spat in a low voice, ignoring the blood that was pouring from his side at this point, murder in his features as he used his now free hand to pull the knife out of the others hand and rested it on the side of his neck. (Note, that word is apparently a spanish insult that literally translates to bagpiper, but is supposed to mean fool ^^ That was the least vulgar one, although there are some worse ones that I wanted to use but I don't want to get in trouble so I won't XD )

(ahaha I have fun writing angry Santi XD Shank you shank you it's a shame you lost some tea tho )
Santiagos angry stare went from the man who had stilled below him to the Commodore, clearly not planning on listening to the other man. He let out a slew of angry insults in Spanish, that was more focused on the chef but was still aggravated that he was interrupted, before stopping when he realized that the Englishman didn't understand a word he was saying. Letting out an angry huff he translated. "The man needs to know his place," Before pushing the blade deeper into the others neck, his attention flicking back to the chef under him, murder on his mind. "Do you wish to apologize, Lamecharco?" He bit out, feeling dizzy for a moment but focusing his energy on the threat. (It means puddle-licker/ heavy drinker lol )

(Ok tho, look up "18 sublime spanish insults we need in english", on Buzzfeed a lot of them are kinda coarse/vulgar, just a forewarning but omg I want to use them in my everyday life.)
At this point the Egyptisn had begun to tremble lightly, his reopened wound beginning to effect his ability to keep the knife in place while his knee dug into the small of the other mans back and the arm was twisted. He was panting , the terrible, burning pain coming back into his conscience again. He glared at the Commodore, though, not willing to give up this one, looking like a completely different man than earlier. Gone was the sweet, cuddly Santi, and what replaced him was a much darker version of hisself.He relented, though, half way as he lowered his head so he was whispering in the Dutchmans ear. "You dare speak against me again, I'll make sure your tongue is in the next meal you prepare." He hissed lightly, his grip loosening lightly, still debating whether or not he'd let the man live. He was considering making an example out of the cook.

Whenever she does something mean I'm using that Hashtag. You. Will. Regret. This. ) (Okay Leo now you are making Kali want to hurt a place other than her fingers..... xD What will it take?/Do you want her to give up any info or no?) Without responding Kali easily sliced through Thessa's other finger and watching it dissapate as well, if the mermaid wanted to feel pain... then she could give her pain no problem. "I know you aren't this strong," Kali sneered in the woman's face. "I know your body is just begging to give in. How much more pain do you think you can take Thessa? Because I am just getting started, trust me. If you've heard any rumors about me....." She leaned in close again, smelling the sea breeze in the woman's hair. " I'm worse." She whispered in an absolutely terrifyingly creepy voice.

OOC: Oh boy, Clover I looked up though Spanish insults. I had to stop halfway so I don't laugh, cause then I'd have to explain to my family what was so funny.XD
IC: Chase had raised his eyebrow slightly as she killed the man so easily. He wasn't very good with that. He could kill of course just...he would have spared the man himself, but that was just him. When she ordered them to go all the gunpowder he did as he was told, checking every barrel he came across. Though as well as the gunpowder he grabbed all the ammunition he could. He knew they would go off and act like shrapnel...very powerful shrapnel that is.

Henry, too, had felt a little uncomfortable seeing Zenobia kill so casually when she didn't need to; both Henry and Chase had spared the guards they had fought. After all, anyone inside the building would die anyway.
Henry didn't question her, though, and did as he was told and grabbed all of the gunpowder he could lay his hands on. Henry, after all, had a much more precarious place in this group. He wanted to get out of here, but they didn't know him like they knew each other. He was just a cocky kid to them, he imagined, and they would probably be all too happy to leave him behind if he turned into deadweight.

When the doo crashed open Henry swore under his breath and ran, not stopping for a moment as he followed Zenobia. He wasn't looking to see if Chase was following but there was no time.
He had to outrun both the fuse and their pursuers if he wanted to get out alive so he ran as fast as he could, knowing that so long as he didn't fall behind he would get out of here on time.
After running for what felt like forever but was probably only a minute or two, they came to their exit point. They had been over their plan previously. Jump and hope you don't fall victim to the rocks at the bottom of the cliff. A risky strategy, but considering they were likely still being pursued, the water at the bottom of the cliff looked a lot more inviting than the guards and the prison that was about to blow up.
Henry had already ditched the heavy coat from the guard disguise, knowing it would slow him down and weigh on him in the water. He was a prepared as he would ever be.

OOC: #SAVAGEKALI ALL THE WAY!
IC: Chase was the last to go, and being the last, one of the guards shouldered him which mad him topple back. Jumping to his feet he started to panic. Knowing that the guards were going to die anyway when the place blew, he got his spear and jabbed it into on of the guards helmets, which caused him to scream in pain and fall to the ground. In the swift movement of pulling it out, he used the other end and hit the other guards face, but that end didn't have a blade so it just really hurt. It all took only a second or two, but with a quick glance at the gunpowder trail he noticed how much time he'd wasted, so with a loud curse he ran as fast as he could. He jumped out of the window seconds before the explosion went off, and he was lucky that the flame barely missed him. However he wasn't so lucky as far as avoiding the rocks went. As he went under, he roughly hit something and heard some sort of crack, making a searing pain ripple through his body and he screamed under the water. He then pulled himself to the surface with a great effort, and the pain he felt was mirrored on his face as he took a deep breath.

(YOU HEARD THEM EVERYBODY! #SAVAGEKALI IS A THING NOW. WE HAVE TO USE IT ALL THE TIME NOW!) (I'll give you a little more but then she's shutting her mouth. More info might come out later if Kali is nice to her ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But you know that's up to you. Plus we'll have some new visitors soon enough ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) Thessa felt a chill run down her spine as Kali whispered to her. That voice wasn't human. That was the voice of a monster. Then again she was on a ship crawling with the things. She didn't have a friend here. She needed to buy herself time. At least enough time so that she could get back home. She suddenly sucked in a breath as the pain finally hit her. She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes as she thought over her next words carefully. When she opened her eyes again the iris had changed from the gentle blue of the calm ocean to a striking silver. As pretty as diamonds. "If you value your life, you will not step foot on the island concealing El Dorado. If you value your life, you will not pass through my people's waters again" she said. Her voice was strong but her face was annoyed, angry, and tired all at the same time. She was annoyed she had to give this information up just so that she could live to see another day. "El Dorado is on an island then, eh?" Kali looked at Thessa for a moment before standing. She then grabbed the woman tightly by the back of the neck dragged her from her seat. "You're lucky your fingers disappeared," She hissed with a laugh as she started to leave the room, practically carrying Thessa from just her hand. "Otherwise I would have made you eat them." She dragged the mermaid through the decks of the ship till they reached the Brig where she unlocked the bars with the key on the wall and then threw Thessa in before locking her inside the ship's jail cell. "Here you are, lodgings fit for a Sea Witch!" She slipped the key into her pocket, not wanting anyone else to be able to interact with Thessa, and crossed her arms over her chest waiting to see the woman's reaction.
