While Johnny and Shanoa are busy getting the net off Thash, Dave keeps the other pirates at bay. He parries their attacks, kicks a few in the face, and even ends up stabbing one in the gut. It's an uphill battle trying to keep them out of the way, but he somehow manages it.

[crankyshark]

Yeah, I'm fine... [he got up to his feet, pleased to find the weak, numb feeling had gone away as soon as the net was off of him] thanks...

[he paused and looked to the other end of the ship as he felt the deck starting to shake periodically as if from heavy footsteps. Some of the enemy crew members they were fighting seemed to get a boost in morale, cheering and looking that way as well. Turns out it WAS from heavy footsteps... A giant nearly 20 feet tall had come out of some cargo hold up into the deck and was stomping towards them with an oversized sword in each hand]

Johnny was just trying to get his arm in working order, again. It was starting to wear off, that earlier weakness, and he had his sea-legs back about him.

"Alright, that's...a very large enemy," he huffed, tilting his hat back, "Well, we have good news and bad news. For the good, the other men are dispersing away from us. The bad news is that it's only so they won't get hit when he swings at us. Options?"

Shanoa looks up at the very large man. Was he even human? The only time she had fought an enemy that big, it was against a demon.

"He's big but most likely he is not as maneuverable as we are. We have that advantage over him."

"You know, I killed a really fat juggalo once and what worked with him was..." Dave rushes the giant, jumps onto his flying skateboard, and slashes through the giant's neck. His katana is more than sharp enough to cut bone. The giant's head falls, and by the time Dave has dismounted his skateboard it's rolling around the deck.

"I wouldn't stand too close to the body if I were you."

[crankyshark]

[Thash watched Dave zip over and defeat the giant with ease, impressed both by his speed and weapon. He was also a little surprised at how slow to respond the giant had been...well, that had clearly been his last mistake.]

[the shark hybrid ran out of the way as the heavy body fell to the deck, making it rock]

Nice one, bro!

"Well, a bit bloody, but I suppose it does fix the situation," he said, gazing out over the crew, "You've lost two ships, and are well on the way to losing this one. Send out your Captain so we can negotiate. Or we can wittle you down and find them ourselves."

Johnny waited with his compatriots, ready to see which way this was going to go.

"Beggin' your pardon," one of the men spoke up, "But the Captains have already left. They have a large fleet, of which we're only a few."

At that, Johnny pulled his hat down over his face, grumbling to himself. "Well, what do we do now? I think the fight is just about out of the remaining crew, a lot of them are still in the water, and their leadership apparently took off."

Shanoa lowers her scythe but does not banish it back into her glyphs, just in case.

"It's quite clear that they are defeated. To continue fighting them would seem to be over doing it."
