The sea air stung her eyes. "I never thought the sea would bother me!" She hadn't been here for a while. She had spent the last year inland at the fresh-water lakes. She rubbed her eyes. "I should have come back sooner..." she remorsed.
Anenomee looked out over the sea, watching the waves crash into each other. Not too far out, she noticed a large ship sailing into the shore where she stood.

Leander sighed as he wandered the shore near the ocean. He missed his sister and knowing her she would still believe that he was there with her, although he had been gone for longer than a year. Looking out to the sea he noticed the ship heading toward shore, and also the woman who stood on said shore. Blinking he settled down and watched.

Anenomee decided to hide. Better to be safe than sorry when dealing with un-familiar ships. She ran to a nearby grove of palm trees. Not the best hiding spot, but all she could find on these vasts sands.
The ship docked in the shallows. It was large and black. It was indeed a pirate ship. A small row boat with about 5 pirates came ashore. They carried shovels. And everyone knows there's only two reasons why pirates carry shovels. 1. To bury treasure, and 2. To dig it up. these pirates were not carrying any treasure, so logicaly, they were going to dig some up.
Anenomee watched them as they followed a map. "To be rich, or not to be rich... that is a stupid question!" She wanted some of that gold. No... She wanted it all!

Leander watched the girl run. 'Now what in the...' he stopped as the pirates came ashore. 'Gold...' A small voice whispered into his ear. 'Lot and lots of gold.' It said again deciding to go along with the voice he made his way down the slope he was on, careful not to fall or alert the pirates to his presence. Once he was on the ground he hid but still with the pirates in his sight.

the pirates went along the beach and came upon three largeboulders. In the center of them, they began to dig. She watched them carfully from afar, cooking up a plan to steal the treasure. "I really want that gold! But how?!! I wish I had my lute with me... i could just make them give it to me. Hm..." Thats when she remembered pirates are very superstitious. "Ah ha!!!" She rummaged through her pack and took out the sack of flour she bought to make bread with. She covered herself all over til she was white as a ghost. She then rubbed some mud around her eyes too make it look like they were sunk in. "perfect..."
Anen walked towards them, moaning and singing a sad tune. With her siren voice, it was easy to make it sound eerie and ghostly.

Leander's heart beat thudded against his chest getting faster and faster as he watched the scene unfold. Right when he was going to get a closer look he heard a strange but soothing moaning sound. Training his gaze a little ways away from the pirates he caught sight of the girl he'd seen before, although now she was ghostly pale and her eyes had a sunken look to them. Cocking his head to the side he moved closer to them until he was with in hearing range.

She sang in her ghostly way, now adding words. "My body lay beneath the sands... My bones are all that's left of me... Dig them up and carry the curse... A thousand Deaths is what will be... You stand upon my grave so deep... You dig my home with shovels bloody... You now know my secret keep... But never again will you escape my ghostly rath..." She added dancing as she got closer. Her arms swaying and her legs swinging mournfully. Her eyes kept them in her stare.
The pirates dropped their shovels and ran screaming for their lives. Anen kept singing and dancing til they fumbled into the boat and to the ship. She laughed and clapped her hands. "It worked! Ha ha!" she jumped into hole and there was the chest.

Leander smiled as the pirates ran for their lives. Jumping up he made his way to the edge of the hole and peered down at her. "Hello that was a nice trick you pulled on them." He said a smile on his face. "You need any help getting outta that hole?" He asked offering her a hand.

Mairk had watched the whole thing with her spy glass. Turnng to her crew she ordered, "Get thirty men out there and get that treasure and the girl! The boy may be usful as a cabin boy, but consentrate on that treasure mates!" They loaded themselevs up in the long boats and rowwed ashore. Maik led the way and pulled out her pistol. She snuck up behind the boy and put it to his head. "best be giving me that treasure now, if you don't want this to actually become your graves!" She said as she clicked her pistol ready to fire.[/color] OOC// Quicky thing here, Maik Tark is a famous pirate so, can your characters know her pwease?  ?! ^_^ |

Leander quickly put his hands up in the air his eyes trained on Mairk. "Wait...your Mairk Tark the famous pirate..." His sentence quickly dieing as he stood there with his hands in the air.

Anen looked up at the pirate now holding a gun to this man's head. She knew she had been caught. Singing and flour would do her no good now. She held up her hands in surrender. "Alright, alright... You win, Pirate. Just don't kill me... This is a new white dress, and I'd hate to have it blood stained."

Mairk smirked. "That's Capitan Mairk Tark." She said to the boy. Gazing down at the girl in the hole she replied, "And what difference would that make? You've already dumped flour all over yourself, and jumped into a muddy hole! I think the blood might actually help to clean the rag!" She said laughing. " Now, why don't you hand up that chest me dearie, and we'll be on our merry way." Mairk Signaled to her men to come help the treasure, and the girl, out of the hole. Turning back to the boy that she still had her gun against she remarked, "I could use a new cabin boy, darn kraken ate me last one..." A sly smirk came across her mouth and she waved her hand above her head in another signal to the ship so that it might come closer to pick them up. "Don't think about anything rash boy, I've got more than one pistol on me."

Then Anen noticed that the pirates she had tricked, were coming back to the shore with the rest of the crew. 'Great... more damn pirates!' she thought. "I do hope you realize those other pirates are coming over here. I don't think they will like you stealing their treasure anymore than they liked me stealing it." She pointed towards the boats rowing in and pirates swimming beside them. They weren't happy about this, and they weren't going to just sail away. "We had better get the hell out of here, NOW!!!" Anen screamed.

Leander blinked barely catching Mairk's words as his eyes focused on the other pirates coming up behind her. "Hey give me your hand!" He called reaching down into the hole for Anen's sake hoping she would grab it so they could get out of here before the pirates killed them all.

Mairk looked over her shoulder. "Ok, time to go!" She reached down her hand into the hole to help Anen, and the treasure, out of the hole. "Hand up the treasure first! Then we'll get you out!" The pirates were closing in on them quickly. "NOW!!!" She screamed at the girl. Mairks crew made a human barracade around them for some extra time and protection.
