Urgent Notice of Understanding this entire story.... it's done in segments with most benefiting others to some degree and it's just been fun to write. Here are the SHORT reads leading up to this edition (most are still able to be upvoted!)
Why do I say this is "Battle Royale Edition"? It is because in the comments am asking that you direct me where to lead the story next. The one I pick will get a 2 SBD's and possibly more if this post doesn't tank.

Part One In This Series of Helping the Helpers... https://steemit.com/thealliance/@battleaxe/the-tale-of-the-siren-and-the-shark-half-of-sbd-s-on-payout-to-tarc

"....A hauntingly beautiful sound was heard in the distance. It was hypnotic and made the hairs on the back of your neck stand on point. The entire group on the ship had just begun their travels and even though they were weaving tales of defeating foes and making grog and assorted Ales, the sing song sound started to change into a malevolent shriek........."

Part Two....https://steemit.com/teamgood/@battleaxe/the-tale-of-the-siren-and-the-shark-half-of-sbd-s-on-payout-to-the-alliance
"...Incessant back and forth rocking of "The Alpaca Punch" ship was becoming stronger by the hour and the conversation had that sinking feeling of taking that darker turn. The inherent point when the smiles become thin lines and then start to navigate south..." (Both of these are recommended to read to get to this point, both are in payout phase <3 )

Part Three...https://steemit.com/steemit/@battleaxe/the-tale-of-the-siren-and-the-shark-half-of-sbd-s-on-payout-to-a-couple-of-new-witnesses-on-the-block
"...A Citrine hued fin flopped right off the bow of the ship and a single sentence was uttered from a voice that was garbled by the haunting and hushed tone of the lead Siren..... "What are you seeking and what is it you are hoping to change in OUR waters?"

Part Four...https://steemit.com/steemit/@battleaxe/the-tale-of-the-siren-and-the-shark-shellfish-edition
"..."You shall not pass unless you do our bidding. You are but mere pawns in OUR waters and in order to cross them you must bend to our wiles and wills or else you can consider yourself our dinner! How DARE you even remotely skim our borders without obeying our whims and fancies. You want to cross this surf n' turf then you will have to do favors for us against our sworn enemies....THE SHARKS!"

The rag tag group decided to deliberate a bit before either proceeding forward with strings attached to do the bidding of the trickster Sirens or sail on and hope that it wasn't an all out war. The head of Arms who usually was the most talkative was silent and staring off at the ever encroaching aquatic tribe that was circling the ship. "We could just make the deal to cross this water and flip a coin as to which will be the worse fate." said the Medicine Woman.

"We also could just sail on and plow over these harpies and maybe they'll break a trident!..." the Captain sarcastically chirped in realizing that there was a pretty good chance they didn't have to make any bad bargains and could sail on while ignoring the whining and clawing at the hull. The other Captains along for the ride and good Rum all stood up and went to peer over the railings. Perhaps a night off the grog would clear their minds to make a decision to do some serious damage to these fighting fish that had Barbie doll complexes.

I just wish I had seen parts 1-4 sooner.

"To pass here free....you must answer first these questions three!

  • What is your quest?
    A. To find a fine source of grog!
  • What is your favorite color?
    A. Blue!
  • Why are a gally full of captains sharing one ship?
    A. Because @battleaxe throws a super sik ship party! Why else??

Thanks for the smiles!!! This ship ride has been fun and silly and suspensful so far.... What will happen next??


The captain vies for time:
"What would you have us do against the dreaded sharks? We are but a pleasure cruise"
While the remaining captains and a couple clever herbalists concoct(Sp?) a plan.... Perhaps invite the shimmering tizzies on board...if they be fair, then wine and dine them. If they be raucus...make sleeping potions and set them back to sea while the Alpaca Punch makes for the nearest Rum repository!!!

I'm totally entranced with this story.

They all jump in a Golf Cart, drive over the hill to the enemy base and blast the hell out of it with various automatic weapons...You did say Battle Royale right?

Hows the fish rations going? Arrr you pirates out of food? This is a great situation to either dance one out or to do group activity where Ole Rummy fires up the crew and creates some solidarity with some much needed Ray Lewis underarmour prep speech... Or maybe a hacky sack sesh might be better...

They take the quest from the siren to take on The Sharks!
