Once more, Leela's
ship is stranded on the beach, into a hidden cove. Not far from the
ship, on the beach, the captain and her crew is loading some cargo
into a boat.
Next to the boat,
the rest of the pirates are dismantling the improvised tents of the
beach camp. Leela is sitting in a wooden crate, overseeing her crew
with the help of her first mate, Mei.
“Captain, we're
almost done, this is the last shipment.” Mei says with a smile and
cheerful tone. Leela nods and frowns. “Good, tell the others to
hurry up and dismantle the camp at once.” The captain responds
sternly.
“Guuuuuuys! It
iiiiiiiiiiis tiiiiiimeee tooo leaaaave, fiiiiiniiish with theee
caaaaamp!” Shouts Mei as if the rest of the crew were a hundred
kilometers away. The crew seems to have stopped short, leaving
everything they were doing at the time. Leela snorts and looks
condescendingly while Mei shakes her head.
“Attention,
bunch of slackers! You better start to collect all this shit or I
swear that I will make you walk the plank until the sharks and eels
can't take any more of you!” shouts Leela's thundering voice.
Hearing this, the
crew shudders, but still do not seem to react to her words. “What
the hell...? Mei, go see what happens ... I'm done with their
nonsense... Done!” Exclaims Leela as she takes her palm to her
forehead.
Mei nods, and,
hopping, heads toward the camp. “Guuuuys... cooomee on... the
captain is getting angryyyyy...” When she arrives, she sees the
rest of the crew with bitter expressions and arms crossed in front of
three armed male silhouettes.
“In the Name of
the King Richard and Queen Aroliana, stop now!” Shouts one of the
guards. The other pirates turn upon seeing Mei arriving cheerful and
smiling. “Oh damn it! So close! We were almost done...” Complains
Mei.
The three guards
open their eyes wide when seeing the first mate Mei, with her long,
soft dark mane and most of her body covered in tattoos.
“What shall we
do now, Mei?” Asks one of the pirates. Mei puts a thoughtful face
while taking the index finger to her lips. “Mmm.... If I remember
correctly... what we usually do in these... situations... is
offering a commission... It is known that the guards' salaries are
not very high... right?” Explains Mei staring at the three guards.
The guards shake
their heads as to refocus on this smuggling issue instead of glancing
at Mei's tattooed breasts. “I recommend you to not follow this
path, or we'll meet in the court of the Stallos inquisition.”
Responds the one who seems to be the head of the three guards.
Upon hearing this,
one of the Leela's men puts a grimace. “Then we'd better not leave
any witnesses...” he says while unsheathing a long knife. The rest
of the crew nods, insults and spits on the ground while unsheathing
their weapons menacingly.
The three guards
stand close, back-to-back, and unsheathe their swords too while
raising their shields, visibly nervous. “On behalf of the King and
Queen! Make them stop, now!” Says the head of the guards, staring
at Mei.
“Coooome on,
guys, don't be so rough... They are just three poor guards, here all
alone, without reinforcements or anything... Also, we must finish
packing all this and bring it to the boat ...” says Mei, quite
naive. Mei's words do not seem to stop the pirates nor inspiring any
confidence to the guards.
Suddenly, everyone
stops. “Sheathe your weapons. Now.” Commands Leela, passing
through her crew. Two of the guards begin to sheathe their swords,
while admiring the captain, astonished . “Not you, them!” Says
Leela while shaking her head.
The crew obeys
while grumbling reproaches. Leela approaches Mei. “Have you offered
some... commission?” Asks the captain. “Yes, but they don't
look... interested... it's a pity... They are quite handsome...”
Answers Mei with sad voice tone as she winks to one of the guards.
The guard blushes, her face red as a tomato.
“Hmm... I
see...” Leela ponders for a moment, crossing glances with the
guards that try to maintain an authority look despite the
voluptuousness of the captain and her first mate.
“Maybe we can
reach an agreement... parrley... Perhaps?” Says Leela with a
sensual voice.
Leela regains her
fierce attitude and addresses to her crew. “Let's move you bloody
mongrels! Don't you have work or what? Pick up everything... but that
tent!” Orders Leela. The rest of the crew begins to move and go on
with their tasks. “Leeet's do it guuuuys, let's pack everything and
leaaaveee!” Exclaims Mei cheerfully.
“Not you, Mei.
You stay with me... I need help to... parrley with them.” Says
Leela. “Aye, my captain. What do you want me to do?” Asks Mei.
Leela stares at the guards and puts a naughty smile.
“Go to that tent
and take off your clothes.” Orders the captain. Mei nods and, with
a giggle, moves towards the tent. “See you now guuuuys... don't
make me wait too long for... the parrley... I don't want to get
cold...” The three guards blush even more and gulp while watching
Leela with eyes wide open.
“Well,
gentlemen, are we going to parrley o what?” Asks Leela with a leer.
The guards stare at each other and nod fervently. “I thought so...
And, after, we can take a some coups of rum, to seal the deal...”
Leela says with a triumphant smile as she heads to the tent along
with the guards.
While the rest of
the crew finishes their tasks, Mei, Leela and the three guards spend
all the time negotiating hard and tirelessly, until they can not
anymore.
Then, Leela and
Mei dress and leave. The three men gawk, staring at the horizon while
watching the boat sail away, wondering when they'll be able to meet
Leela and her crew again and collect their... commission.
