Great Sea
"Ship sighted, sir!"
Nicholas came over to the bow and took out his looking glass. Having thrown a brief look in the distance he muttered - "That doesn't look like your average Horde ship..." - sinking into consideration. Several seconds later he bellowed - "Fly our flag and man the cannons! Hold the fire until my command! Leave only the main mast sails!"
The "
Executioner
" slowly drifted towards another ship.

"Ship ahoy, cap'n!" Sanchez called down from the crow's nest.
"Eh?" Edward muttered, stepping out of the cabin. "What's their bearing?" he called up.
"Sou' by Souwest!" Sanchez yelled back down.
"Very good," Edward nodded, pulling out a golden spyglass. He peered out towards the horizon. "Ha! They be pirates, by the look of it..." he laughed, collapsing his spyglass again. "Keep the Kul Tiras flag a'flyin' for the moment. I think this'll be fun."

Nick once again looked through the spyglass at the ship - this time, he could clearly see Kul Tirian flag flying at the main mast.
"Either the royal wharves of Boralus have built another ship, or these are pirates." - he said quietly, then bellowed - "Add a Kul Tirian flag beneath ours!" - so that the Kul Tirian captain - that is, if he or she was Kul Tirian - would think that Nick was a Boralus privateer - a statement not far from truth, to think about it. Seconds later, beneath the tentacled skull a gold-upon-green anchor was flying.

"They just ran a Kul Tirian flag up the mainmast!" Sanchez reported down.
"Interestin'," Edward smirked, watching the ship grow closer. "Let's see how this plays out, but keep the cannons loaded and be ready fer a fight, just in case," he ordered his crew. "Stravinsky, get your shotgun," he added with a grin.

"A blank shot should serve as a greeting and make them focus upon us. Fire!"
The "
Executioner
" shuddered and a long white cloud of smoke appeared at its side. The cannoneers immediately began reloading.
"We are close enough for them to notice our signals. Kayde!"
"Yes, sir?"
"Send the following message - '
Seven feet under the keel! Need assistance?
'"
The officer nodded and began swinging signal flags, repeating the message several times just in case.
((OOC - In my language the first statement is a naval "Good Luck", but I'm not sure about English *sadface* ))

"No offense but I don't really want another sister. How about we just be friends." He said smiling.

"No. I don't want another sister after Silencia." He said then stopped when he heard what he thought was growling. "Did you hear that?" He asked.

Illiana
Eversong Woods
Her ear's twitched as she tried to listen in for a moment. "Yeah....It....it's sounds like dogs." She said trying to pinpoint where it was coming from. "Why do you think a dog's out here?" She asked her head turning in circles trying to spot it.

Tayeda turned and stopped. "Those aren't dogs." He said taking a step back. "Lynx's." He said pointing to the lynx that had walked out of the bushes and towards them, soon two more walked out beside the first one. "They look hungry."

"W...What should we do?" She asked starting to scoot closer to him and cling to him as the fear built up in side her.

Tayeda started to think as the animals moved closer. A thought came to his mind and he moved away from Illiana and towards the lynx. "When I say so run to the city as fast as you can." He said as he took another step. "Run!" He yelled and quickly charged and jumped onto the back of one of the lynx's and pulled on it's ear causing it to scream in pain and caused the others to focus on him.

She turned to run but turned back and saw him trying to keep them off her. She hesitated only a moment before running back. A small spell already on her mind and already slipping out of her lips. She quickly cast the spell, it was the pretend fire again. "Get off!" She shouted to him as the fire ring encircled her keeping the lynx away.

Tayeda didn't hear what she was saying his mind focused on holding onto the lynx but the animal slammed into a nearby tree causing Tayeda to let go and grab his stomach as he knelt down on the ground the lynx stood in front of him watching. The other two lynxes ran at Illiana but stayed far enough back to not get caught in the fake fire.

"Hmm..." Edward chuckled, watching the signals through his spyglass. There had been a few cannon shots, but they were too far away to fire accurately. "Run my flag up and turn the ship for a broadside volley," he smirked. He could see the enemy's flag at this point, and if his memory was correct, he knew exactly who it was, though he had never seen him himself. "Captain Randall... A man after my own heart..." he chuckled. "Mayhap he knows of my own reputation?" he grinned.

Thurdan Grimvein
Stormwind
Thurdan walked into the bar and it was extremely busy, full of the smell of beer, ale and sweat, just the way a dwarven tavern should smell. He pushed his way to the bar and found an empty seat, he ordered his favourite drink, The Molten Hammer, a potent alcoholic beverage served at near boiling point.
When his drink was brought out he paid and moved to a table drenched in shadows. He sat and sipped his drink. He watched the bustling tavern and listened to the roar of laughter and music while he waited, his contact lived here and they had met here before.
He did not have to wait long because soon after he finished his drink the rogue melted out of the shadows next to him, giving him quite a fright. "Thurdan, good to see ya' again" she said laughing as she pat him on the back, "Ah, Miss Shatterblade, good to see you're well, perhaps we can talk somewhere more private?" the dark iron asked, "I said call me Mira, ya' ol' buffoon." the dwarf replied as she motioned for him follow.
"Right, so your 'ere on business then? Whaddoya' need?" Mira asked once they were in her room. "Yes, this is a business visit. And as for what I need, what do you know of shadow priests within Stormwind?". "Ah, funny you should ask that" she chuckled "rumour 'as it that the Cult of the Forgotten Shadow 'as developed a following in the grand ol' nation o' Stormwind. 'Course the Church is none too 'appy 'bout this, and 'ere come the funny part. I've just been hired by tha' Church to 'unt down these shadow preists. But the thing is, they're slippery folk and I've only just managed to track down their leader. But for you m'dear I'd be willing to forget 'em, and my you I mean a sack o' gold".
"Always the negotiator Mira" Thurdan laughed as he drew a small bag of gold from his cloak, "Now tell me where" he said holding the bag outstretched. "Near the gates, small thing on a side street, it's kinda' shabby lookin', easy to miss, but it looks weird. You'll know it when ya' see it".
Thurdan thanked Mira and made his way out of the tavern, walking towards the trade district with a smile on his face.
Rorgash Bearpaw
Stratholme
Rorgash quickly jumped up after tackling Melnok to the ground. He then went about punching the ground, just missing the Death Knight each time, as he was rolling himself away.
Each blow became slightly harder for Rorgash to deliver and he kept missing. Melnok quickly jumped up after one roll and chain the half ogre to the ground with ice whilst he ran to retrieve his weapon.
Rorgash struggled against the ice until he eventually shattered it, he leapt into the air, attempting the slam his fists into Melnok. As he fell towards the death knight Melnok quickly moved aside and deliver three cutting blows in succession to the falling bonecrusher. Rorgash turned around and backhanded the death knight sending him sprawling across the arena.
Rorgash tried to run over to Melnok in an attempt to finish the fight, but tripped over halfway as his strength ebbed away. He stood back up and vomited, feeling sick from the trickery coating the death knights weapon. "Your tricks can't stop me..." he yelled as he stumbled towards Melnok.
((Sorry for G-moding a bit, but it helps fights move faster))

Character: Shiara
Location: Stormwind
Shiara peeked out the windows, keeping watch. She had made sure to put out any lights in her room before looking out, to prevent herself from being silhouetted against the light. Her night vision was superb, and she didn't see any prowlers, so she let out a sigh of relief and closed the shutters again. She decided to go prepare something for herself to eat, after all, she hadn't eaten since breakfast, and she had never managed to buy a meal at the restaurant she'd visited. Now that she was safe, she had to eat while she could, since she might not get another chance for a while.

"Yeah, hopefully," Avemthar said as the tram stopped in Ironforge, they stepped off the tram shortly after and made their way towards the exit of the tram station. He kept looking in Silencia's direction with considerable amounts of worry.
Lektri
Gnomeregan
"Oh you'll find out soon enough," Yondra replied, running her tongue along her lips in a seductive manner so that both gnomes could see. Lektri stiffened, his fears had been confirmed by this action. Either they would have to give their kidnappers what they wanted, or escape, and that would have be soon if they wanted to avoid the treatment they would receive at the hands of their captors. Yondra pushed them along until they were in the cell, "well, see you in the morning," she said with a sigh, "or just yell out if you want to get started early," she added with a wink, before slamming the door shut in their faces. Lektri stumbled back, regaining his footing shortly after. "
Well this is just great
," he commented sarcastically, carefully placing his feet, realizing that the floor was made out of a relatively soft and also slightly springy substance.

Nicholas
Great Sea
"They're preparing for battle!"
Nick looked at the new flag and swore under his breath.
"Edward the Tall... Why the hell is he fighting?"
The buccaneer barked several orders in a row - "Kayde, tell him '
A human should never kill a human. We are not your enemies yet.
' after which get away from the deck - no need to endanger yourself. Olshansky, man the ballistas - we will not shoot first under any circumstances. Cortes, set full sail! Direction nord-nord-west,
Sirocco
favors us today."
The war galleon now swiftly glided through the water, the foamy white trail behind it contrasting with its black hull and sails. The distance between the "
Executioner
" and Edward's ship was declining, even though Nick was not heading directly at it. It was only a matter of minutes before three giant ballistas would be able to reach their target.
