The remaining guards begin hauling the prisoners to the ship, it takes nearly all of them to drag Billy. Ellen's crew meanwhile quickly go into the various tents and take whatever seemed valuable, several chests of treasure, fine silk, vintage rum etc. Ellen is administering first aid to the wounded, While Emily is taking the corpses of the fallen pirates and dragging them into a pile. She quickly makes a note written with some of their blood telling the local pirates when they return that all their leaders are dead or captured and to join a new crew and leave or suffer the same fate. She pins it to the top corpse with a rusty dagger she see's nearby. She notices a large ship returning. At least 100 men on it. She shouts.
All right everyone, grab whatever you can, and lets move out. Mission accomplished.
Emily grabs a cask of rum and runs back to the CL. The ship leaves and begins sailing back toward Tortuga-with over a dozen high bounty prisoners in the hold. It will be about an hour before they return to Tortuga, So Ellen has herself, Jack and Emily in her cabin to begin discussing the shares.
I say 2 shares for the 3 of us, and 1 share for the rest. What do you think Jack?
I'm a meanie head! Beware my Meanness
