Chapter 45 DEAD EYES ARRIVES.
*BOOM!*
A boulder obstructing the path was blown to bits as Eros walked over to the Shore of the Island.
He carried two people. One on each hand. Immediately Commander half bra sighted him, she sent forth a boat to bring them to the ship.
"Are you Okay!? Are you injured!?" Commander Half bra asked as she kept checking Eros's body for injuries like a worried mother goose.
"Don't worry! I'm alright." Eros pronounced as he dusted off his Tunic, "just take care of these two." he handed Dan over to Jimmy the butler and Victoria to the other Pirates.
Commander Full bra saw the way her sister was acting and could not help but raise a brow at this.
Eros smiled at Commander half bra and she blushed a little. She suddenly realized her behaviour, and it made her feel a peck of shame.
Just then, Eros's smile morphed into a frown.
Commander half bra was about to make a remark but then she looked in the direction he was staring in.
She also frowned.
Far off in the distance, a very huge ship approached.
This ship was five times the size of her's. It was big and robust, and sat on the blue sea like a slow approaching king.
The fact that this ship was coming towards them was not the troubling part.
What was troubling, was the flag it was flying.
This ship had the Flag of the Black Eye pirates on it.
This was the same pirate group with Commander Tender eye.
As his name implied, Commander Tender Tender Eye was just a commander amongst the commanders under one banner.
With the confrontation they had just had with Commander Tender Eye, it was safe to say that nothing good was going to come out of this confrontation.
After all, Power was only a respecter of power of equal or higher value.
Commanders Half bra and Full bra were in no capability to take the Chief ship of this pirate group.
"We can still make it! We are a distance from them. We can still outrun them. We just need to pass a smaller canal than their..." Commander half bra paused in her words as Eros pointed into the distance.
Behind the Chief ship, a few other ships appeared. These were a few escort ships of the main one.
Each of them were as big as Commander Half bra's ship.
Even if she managed to outrun such a big and powerful ship, and steered her ship into a small canal, those smaller ships could still follow her and this was going to be trouble.
The bald first mate of Commander tender Eye watched the approaching ships in the distance and it made him laugh loudly, "Its the Captain. The Captain himself is coming. You are all dead! Dead I tell You! All..."
*KICK!*
Commander half bra gave him a kick to the face that effectively fainted him.
She was a Commander an understood the value of Morale to her men. There was no way she was going to allow the bald man to help weaken the already down morale.
Commander Full bra stood to her feet albeit carefully. She had recovered most of her strength.
Because of her origins, the Soul cuff was stronger on her. "don't worry Lily! Captain Blind eyes is not here for you. Its me! I had sent out two letters for help. One was to Big Bra-Mama and the second one was to Captain blind eyes. By some twist, you got Big Bra's mama's letter. But it seems Captain Blind eyes got his."
Hearing that it was her sister that sent invited the pirates over made everyone relax a bit, but with what had happened so far, Commander Half bra would nor at all be surprised if a fight broke out.
She turned and looked at the terrible state of her crew and her ship.
There had just finished with one problem before coming to fight for commander Full bra. Their ship was already bad, and they had to fight with Commander Tender eye's crew.
She knew that her ship was in no condition to take in more hits. Also, the hits from that approaching monster were going to be the setting of chaos.
She had no choice but to watch as the ship approached them steadily.
This ship was big and very black all over.
At its sides were Cannons that were arranged in Rolls and Columns. On the Aft of the ship was a very big Cannon and on the Fore of the ship Lay two big Cannons that earned the ship the nickname: DEAD EYES.
It was a war monster, and anywhere it passed, it left waves behind.
It stopped when it was close to Commander half bra's ship, and the other smaller ships following it circled around the two other ships.
Commander half bra swallowed hard. Her hands were sweaty but she still tried as hard as possible to keep a poker face.
Suddenly, she felt a hand in hers. She looked at who it was, and was surprised to see that it was Eros.
He had a reassuring smile on his face. His smile was so bright and comforting that it seemed like even if the sky fell, and she was with him, it was all going to be alright.
It was the same smile he had given her when he went to save Dan.
the ship stopped beside her's.
A Gangway was laid between the two ships.
Commander Full bra stood on one side as she watched the person coming aboard the ship.
By her side was Commander half bra and by Commander half bra's side, was Eros.
Everyone watched as the man took his time to move from his ship to their own.
Eros watched Captain Blind Eyes and could not help but stroke his beards a bit.
Commander Full bra also watched attentively. All attention was on the man.
When they called him Captain Blind eyes, it was no joke.
He had a black cloth covering his eyes completely. He had a blind man's waking stick in hand and every step he took made him look as if he was going to fall over the gangway and into the sea but he did not.
Also, everyone on Commander Half bra's ship felt like it was not a man that was approaching but rather, an old unfathomable mountain.
Every step hammered at their hearts.
He got to their ship and then he revealed his rows of Gold plated and Rum coloured teeth.
