The Continental Navy narrowly averted disaster tonight during an anti-pirate patrol. The patrol lead by Rear Admiral Rain consisted of her, Admiral Amanda, Admiral Xi and Captain Bethany. A storm struck the patrol causing the loss of both Admiral Rain and Captain Bethany. Admirals Amanda and Xi were alone against strong pirate opposition of Captains Kaz, Otho the Shiny, Zan, Pabo and Henry. In just a few moments, Xi was sunk by the heavy barrage from multiple pirate vessels. The pirates closed in on Amanda and gunner Randy. They fought back furiously but were run down and sunk. (Round 1 to the Pirates) Admirals Amanda and Xi, now alone, regrouped. Rain and Bethany were blown so far away from Pirates Destiny they couldn’t return in time. Knowing they were desperately outnumbered, Amanda approached Captain Kaz, who had worked with the Continentals in the past, about taking a temporary privateering commission. Captain Kaz accepted and joined the Continental fleet. Some of the Pirate fleet, not realizing Kaz had changed sides, were taken by surprise. The navy prevented defeat with bravery and a bit of subterfuge. The struggle with the Pirate Menace will continue. sketches by Fluer
