The Buccaneers Bay

[Wolfs Ghost]

Vanessa stepped through the doors to the Buccaneers Bay, her slender frame keeping quiet and to the shadows as she moved through the small gathering of various miscreants, a large grin on her face. She had no reason to be happy, none at all, but she was a bit proud to be back alive, and with what she thought would be an interesting tale to tell.

As tradition of the Buccaneers, she grabbed a mug from one of her comrades, then climbed on top of an unoccupied table, the room fell quiet as almost all of the eyes turned towards her.

"Probably not the best story I could come home with! But I'll tell ye anyways." She said, her dialect was mixed between Leeds.. and Cambridge, "Twas in Magellan earlier t'day, and I was playin' a game with lovely lassie, y'know... she was 'nother pirate, not from 'round 'ere, but lovely anways. And suddenly tis transport... by the name Ginger Ninja, came out of nowhere! Typically I stopped it and asked fer credits, was in a bit of a hurry... anyways, gettin' t' the point, a Forcer shows up! Low an behold I tell 'em to stay where he was, but he just kept comin', turns out he was an Admiral. Bloody idiot one at that!"

She laughed slightly, taking a sip out of the mug before raising it back into the air, squinting her eyes at the taste before shaking her head lightly and continuing.

"Ye know what he did, aye? Tried t' play hero! There's only one hero boy who can do it all properly ye know!" She gawked, beginning to laugh at the scene as it played out in her head again. "So... so... I told 'em to stay where he was, unless he wanted the transport t' explode, right? But no, he kept comin' then BAM! One anti-matter round to the hull and the transport was broken apart in plenty of small pieces! T-t-the transport captain later contacted me over private channels askin' me what was wrong with me, and I told 'em, I ain't havin' any regrets, ye' see... he failed t' pay me, and any blood ain't on my hands. But... the Admirals!"

Afterwards, she finished what was left in the mug and lowered it, hopping down from the table and pulling out a small disk, she walked over towards a machine and pushed the disk inside, then pressed start and audio played over the speakers within the Bay.

"Ye know what this calls for?" She shouted, smirking widely. "Black mail, my boys and girls. Black mail."
