The Twin Sparrows

Recruitment in Tortuga

Tortuga No POV

It was getting dark with the Twins and Will arrived at Tortuga and walked around. Tortuga was not like most ports as it was a pirate heaven.

Drunk fights everywhere, people shooting without care, people getting thrown off balconies, someone getting dragged around by a horse pulled cart, someone hanging someone to shake them and rid them of all their shillings, drinking and eating without care of ever running out, etc.

Jack; it is indeed a sad life that has never breathed deep the sweet, proliferous bouquet that is Tortuga. Savvy?

Wade takes a cane from a man that was going to use it as a weapon and gave it to Jack as the man was going to complain but the man he was chasing came back and punched him in the face.

Jack: what do you think?

Will saw a man drenched in Rum while still drinking from it from metal mugs.

Will: it'll linger.

Jack: I'll tell you, mate, if every town in the world were like this one, no man would ever feel unwanted.

A woman in a red dress and red hair walked over to them.

Jack: Scarlett!

Scarlett just slaps Jack as she sees Wade and instead of slapping him, grabs him and gives him a full blown kiss on the lips before breaking the kiss and smirks as she walks away.

Jack: not sure I deserved that.

Another woman walked over but she had a gold-ish looking dress with blond hair.

Jack: Giselle.

Giselle: who was she?

Jack; what?

Giselle just slaps Jack and like Scarlett, she grabbed Wade's head and gives him a full blown kiss before breaking the kiss.

Giselle: visit more often will you~?

Giselle walks away with a smirk as Wade shakes his head to get rid of the dizziness after two full blown kisses.

Jack: I may have deserved that.

Will; and Wade... deserved those?

Jack: let's just put it this way, he's desirable among the females. So desirable that women would kill to be with him.

They went over to a pig mud pit where a man was sleeping as Jack threw a bucket of water at him to wake him up. This was Joshamee Gibbs.

Gibbs: curse you for breathing, you slack-jawed idiot! <sees the Twins> Mother's love! Jack! Wade! You should know better than to wake a man when he's sleepin'. It's bad luck.

Jack: fortunately, we know how to counter it. The man who did the waking buy the man who was sleeping a drink. The man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking.

Gibbs: aye. That'll about do it.

Wade helps Gibbs stand up as Will throws another bucket of water at Gibbs face.

Gibbs: blast! I'm already awake!

Will: that was for the smell.

Gibbs just accepted it with a nod as he understood.

They all went inside as the inside was just the same as the outside. Drunks fighting and drinking. Jack brought three mugs to the table as he passes Will who was leaning against a pole.

Jack: keep a sharp eye.

Jack set the mugs down as Wade grabs his and drinks from it a little.

Gibbs: now, what's the nature of this venture of your'n?
