Ravyn nodded, then vanished into the shadows. She silently crept out and fired a volley of arrows into the air. All of them made their mark as there were so many guards and hollow men. Hollow men and guards fell, one after one from the barrage of arrows she was firing. She felt the rush of battle as she cut down the forces with her bow. This was one the the many reasons she loved being a bandit.

Griff arrived back at the battlefield. He didn't feel it right to abandon them in the middle of a quest regardless of how angry he was, but he also didn't want them to know he was back. His quest to himself was to aid them in the retrieval of the ship, the rest was up to them. A good distance away he could see the guards had already began battle with the hollow men. Arrows were flying thick and fast from the light house. "Ravyn sure is an imressive archer. I should make some time to get to know her better" he thought to himself. On the stone path, Griff could hear some guards coming to aid the others in battle. Off in the distance a group of hollowmen were making their way toward the town. Eager to fight, Griff drew his sword, prepared to be in the middle of the fight. The hollow men were moving quickly and at this rate both them and the guards would reach Griff at the same time. As suspected, the guards arrived at the same time, but spotted Griff first and charged at him. Sword ready, he dodged and parried a few blows, before running two guards through and disarming a third. The hollow men were attacking another group of guards and seemed to be gaining the upper hand. Griff rose his hand and cast his healing spell on the Guards to give them more of a chance and focused his attention on three hollow men making their way to him. "Show me what you've got you undead bastards" Griff said

Hawk watched from the lighthouse as the great battle forged in front of him. A sudden yell filled the air as a hollowman had crept passed Hawk and slashed at the keepers leg. Hawk looked down at the bloody leg belonging to the keeper and then looked back up to see the hollowman staring at him with its head at an angle. Hawks rage overcumbered his as he punched the hollowmans head with full force, the head was swept clean off the shoulders and rolled across the wooden floor. 'Get on my back' ordered Hawk to the keeper. Hawk picked up his two huge swords and made his way towards the large ship with the keeper hanging onto him.

Magpie walked onto the ship and got snuck up to the helm. He saw Ravyn next to him, Griff had arrived down below, and Hawk ran onto the ship with the keeper on his back. Magpie steered the ship away from the port, he yelled down to the guards. "Oi! Guards! Get up here near the helm! Cover both sets of stairs!" The guards obeyed, and moved back up to where Magpie was, they stopped attacking his comrades, and waited for the hollowmen to come to them. Magpie quickly told Hawk his plan, without any guards hearing. "These guards would make fine bandits Hawk..." He grinned.

Griff finished off the hollow men in front of him and saw the ship moving out from the port. He ran down toward the ship to take on more of the hollow men and help out the guards as best he can. When he arrived he looked up at the ship and caught Magpie's eye. Anger filled his body again from the events that took place and he charged into the group of hollow men, every swing finding its mark. After cleaving through all the remaining hollow men Griff turned to face the ship and raised his sword in the air.All the hollow men on the shore were gone. "The rest is up to you guys now, I've done my part. Good luck" he said

Hawk looked down at Griff from aboard the great ship. 'Goodbye Griff! Meet us back at the bandit camp and find somewhere to hide this ship!' he yelled whilst waving.
Hawk walked back across the blood stained deck and placed the lighthouse keeper carefully onto the floor. 'Head towards Oakvale and the camp' he shouted up to Magpie who was at the helm. Hawk walked over to Ravyn who was busy repairing her arrows and sat down next to her on the side of the ship and watched the waves crashing hard against the sides.

Ravyn looked out to the sea. The waves were calm, and captivating. She looked over the deck. The water was so blue. She sat back down, bow still in her hand. The Kraken could be anywhere.

The boat rocked from side to side in the calm blue water. Everything was quiet as the passengers listened to the seagulls singing above.
'What was that!?' shouted a guard staring down into the water. A huge black shadow had sprang up underneath their ship.
'Prepare yourselves!' shouted Hawk forcefully to the crew.

Griff was back at the bandit camp and commmunicated with Hawk through the Guild Seal in regards to the ship and his quest. "Umm Hawk, Me and Tucker were just wondering. Where abouts should we be hiding this ship? It's not really the easiest task to hide a ship from people"

Hawk heard Griff say this through his seal and replied urgently, 'Forget the hiding place, you need to get as many ships as you can up here now! The Kraken are moving in...' at that moment the boat got smashed into and swang around, almost tipping over. 'Everybody hang on and find some beer barrels, we need to set this beast alight!'' ordered Hawk to the crew. Another crash sounded from underwater. This was going to be far harder to kill than the Darkwood bandits they had slain the other day.

Back at the bandit camp Griff rounded up as many bandits as he could find. "300 bandit thugs. For all that is good I hope this is enough" Griff thought to himself He ordered them to commandeer the 3 available bandit ships that were available at the bandit camp and set sail toward Hook Coast, there they should be able to see Hawk and the others fighting a Kraken. They all jumped to attention and gathered all they needed. Griff stood at the front of the ship that would lead the small fleet to their destination. He held his Guild Seal close and spoke "Hawk we are on our way, I managed to get 3 of our ships, the others are beyond repair so this is all we have. I hope it is enough. Hold on, we should be there soon"

Magpie stood on the edge of the ship. "This thing is really. Really. Pissing me off!" He shouted, and jumped on top of the Krakens head, stabbing it with his knife, and shooting various spells at it.

The Kraken sank underwater as Magpie leaped onto its huge head. Several members of the crew rushed to the side of the boat, rope in hand signaling for Magpie to grab hold of.
There was silence for a couple of minutes. The sea was raging across into the boat but nothing else was heard. 'Griff be wary when you approach' said Hawk through his Seal. 'It's over there!' shouted a small plump guard pointing his finger towards a huge tentacle rising out of the water. 'It's going to smash into us!' cried several more guards running to the edge of the ship to get a better look. 'There is more than one' shouted Hawk to the others.
'I can't have lead my bandits to their deaths...' said Hawk to himself, although now he was beginning to doubt himself as several tentacles circled around the ship waiting to crash down onto it.

Magpie launched lightning at the tentacles, each in turn, they were severed from the beast, and one landed on top of the ship, the Kraken reared towards the ship, it would destroy it. Magpie sighed. There was nothing else that could be done to stop it, and if he didn't do something, all his friends onboard that ship would die. Hawk clearly saw this, and began to yell at Magpie. Magpie ignored, and stabbed his wand into the Krakens head, letting out a long spell inside it, the beast dived under the water, with Magpie ontop of it, and went deep down into the sea.

Off in the distance Griff saw the ship and began to wave and call out to everyone. The sea was extemely rough but managed to pull his ship along side the others. Griff lept to the other ship that his friends were on. "I got here as fast as I could. Is it dead?" He asked

'No, can't you see the tentacles!?' said Hawk to Griff whilst pointing them out. 'Magpie is underwater, I don't know how long he can hold his breath for though' said Hawk looking down into the rough ocean.
'We need fire! I propose we set our bandit ships alight and follow them until they sink. The Kraken won't follow if there is fire... hopefully' said Hawk thinking fast.

"Oh...yeah...Guess that was a dumb question hey Hawk?" Griff said laughing it off. Griff assessed the situation and realised that even though him and Magpie had a rough history he didn't wish him dead. "We have to get Magpie out of there.....But I can't swim, so if we're gonna save him somone needs to get down in there, I'll distract the Kraken if you's want" Griff proposed

Magpie reared the beast up, it jumped high into the air, Hawk plunged his swords into it and cut it wide open, bandits cut, shot and threw at it, Ravyn fired several arrows into it, Griff and Tucker attacked it fiercely, and finally, Magpie launched a flame into the back of its mouth, he jumped back onto the ship. "We did it." He muttered.

Hawk stared at the huge dead Kraken floating in the sea. 'Haha that ended quicker than I expected' said Hawk smiling whilst wiping his forehead dry. Hawk jumped down onto the beasts head which was like a small island and headed for the face. Slowly and carefully he used one of his gigantic swords to pick out the eye. Several people on board looked away in disgust from Hawk as he climbed back onto the deck, 'What?' said Hawk laughing. 'This will look god as a trophy. It will also prove that we defeated the Kraken by ourselves' said Hawk now closely inspecting the eye.
'Make repairs on the ship and set sail back to camp!' ordered Hawk striding across the creaking wooden floorboards.

Magpie grinned uncertainly. He knew what was coming up soon. "My time in this world is up Hawk. I am sorry." He muttered to Hawk.
