"Because I have been observing your little friends over there and it seems they could use some assistance with combat, as it appears your little mission hasn't exactly gone unnoticed."

"Um. No thank you." Adira stated firmly. "Cicada? A little help?"

"Yeesh. I do happen to love chaos." Standing on cobblestone, Houston sadly watched the other pirates run on. He just wanted to be one of them. And hey, what's wrong with a couple more fires?
But he held his head and walked back to the ship anyways.
(don't interact with houston for a bit, I gtg)

Dumfounded, Adira turned around and calmed instantly, "Sorry guys, just lost control. But really, what the f*ck are you doing here?!"

"You. Stay. Cap is so mad as us right now." Zoe commanded as she left Adria on the ship and went to round up the others.

"I was thinking that I could be of some use to you in exchange for food, shelter, and a portion of the spoils"

"Oh, I see. You don't think I'm good enough. Well, how can I prove you otherwise?"

Still on the ship, Adira watched the streets. Confusion was everywhere, places were wrecked. What was supposed to be a controlled, quick and efficient mission had gone terribly.

"Well well well, look what the cat dragged in. Maybe if you didn't have me stuck here babysitting the ship, that mission would have gone a lot better huh?", said Jace

Cicada finished the damn job and walked into the palace. She crashed on the throne with a groan. The queen walked up to her laughing, "Haven't had an easy evening Cicada?"

"Do not patronize me Zanna," Cicada glanced at her, "I did the damn job, can I get my money so I can go and kill my crew?"

"It was pretty bad," Zanna nodded. She hand the captain a pouch her purple amulet flashing under her dress, "I wish you luck Captain Cicada."

"Farewell Queen Suzan the Third," Cicada gave her a mock bow before walking back to her ship muttering, "I'm going to need it."

"Now do you believe me that you all need more practice?" He asked

Groaning, Adira got up and walked away from Jace.

Zoe was sooo annoyed and was ready to kill everyone except Cicadia, Brooke and Josiah. Josiah really didn't do anything wrong, just following orders.

"Hey! get back here, you need more practice and you know it, its time we start working"

"Shut up, you're not the cap and damn you I don't need any practice." Zoe snarled before getting Clawd back.

In fact, Adira was already planning on murdering Houston. But for some reason, a small part of her kinda wanted something else. She hated that small part.

Houston harrumphed on the railing, a bit angry, a bit mad that he'd been put away like nothing. He had done some things right.

"really, then your telling me that that whole fiasco went according to plan," Jace said incredulously

Cicada arrived back on the ship and she stormed into her office to drop the gold pieces off. Normally she would split it, but oh no. Not this time, well maybe Zoe would get some.

"Well It wasn't my fault
its just that someone decided not to follow orders " Zoe said almost yelling.

Jace and Zoe were arguing and Adira kinda wanted to punch Jace in the face. Ok, she really wanted to punch Jace. But she suddenly remembered how she lost control during the mission and realized she didn't do well, either.

"all of you could have died there and you know it. If you keep making me stay on the ship while u go completely unprepared into a battle, soon I'm not going to have a crew to train!" exclaimed Jace

Josiah retreated up to his crow's nest, letting his crystal take him to an apparated world of relaxed nature. He needed it - you know that when you smell like smoke, you need to relax.

She moved away from them and headed to the railing, where she found no other, than the devil himself, Houston.

Houston gave them all a backwards glance, and trumped downstairs to his cabin, locking the door behind him. He needed to see Ivory.
