The Son of Rockwell

Chapter 23 part 2: What’s this…?

Tim lifted his fists into the air. Suddenly they heard footfalls and shouts as the crew ran all over the deck. Vyker swore, “Tim you let them know that we escaped!” Vyker looked like he was going to kill Tim. He grabbed a katana and got into a fighting stance. Tim found a pistol and loaded it. “Well they would have figured out sooner or later.” Tim replied. “Whatever! Just make sure no one gets through that door!” “Rodger!”. The pirates opening the door were cut down by Vyker as Tim fired at the open door towards the other pirates. Butcher jumped from the front of the crowd and slammed into Vyker. Bruce leaped with Amanda into the crowd and began slicing pirates with surprisingly ease. Vyker and Butcher were having a close combat duel each one trying not to slice themselves or their companions. Tim’s gun was shot out of his hand and he jumped behind a crate. The crowd of pirates were overwhelming, and even with the blades of light they would having a difficult time getting the crew and each other or the ship. Suddenly Amanda’s saber flickered and died. She dropped it and went into fisticuffs, knocking out several pirates. Bruce when ahead and took out the oncoming pirates. In a roar of fury and a flash of blades the pirates went down. It wasn’t Bruce. He turned around to find Tim with to small daggers in each hand looking shocked. “I… didn’t know I was capable of that.” Bruce nodded quickly, then closed and blocked the door. Vyker had taken control of Butcher and knocked him unconscious. Blood covered his arm and Vykers leg. Panting heavily Vyker smirked at Bruce. “I haven’t had a fight like that in years.” he chuckled, clearly out of breath. Amanda walked over and looked out the window, “Seems that we’re not the only commotion going on right now, look!” The rest of them looked out the port window to see a busy port, men and women taking crates and barrels off and on to ships. A sign said “Welcome to Little Island!” Tim smiled, “They’re so imaginative with these names.” Vyker looked at the door they blocked, “We’ve got to get of this ship and get that trophy back. Without it we-“ “Hey guys?” Bruce, Vyker, and Amanda turned to Tim. “Are these artifacts?” Tim asks as he draws out three glowing metal relics. Amanda examines them, “And not just any artifacts. These are the one that are needed for the blue obelisk.” Amanda looks back to Bruce and Vyker. “I think they’re going to use us to fight the guardian of it.”

(Before anyone asks, no I haven’t had a not watch or are promoting Jujutsu Kaisen nor Star wars. Again part of the story. Be prepared to see more references. And as first part one, my device glitched so I had to split the chapter. Anyway I hope you liked this!)
