"Pirates," he mumbled quietly under his breath. He looked down at Damaris, why had he not remained below where it was much more safe? "Don't let your guards down, they are not our friends. We are simply their next target!" he yelled, the men around him nodded though they were a bit relieved that they would not have to deal with the navy. There was a problem though, if the pirates didn't sink that navy ship and instead chose to take it as they had with the other then Roy wasn't sure of their chances again. Even if half of them could very well be idiots it didn't take much to load, aim and fire.

He took the hand that was being used to tug on his cloak. "I told you to stay downstairs," he didn't seem that upset about it, he was more annoyed than anything. "Though if you want to stay above and prove to me that you're capable of looking after yourself then so be it." he let go of Damaris' hand, though before he pushed past him he whispered a few more words to him. "Be careful." then he left Damaris amongst the other men.

It felt like forever until the navy ship that had been taken by pirates began to move again. For now it seemed that they had no interest in the other navy ship, perhaps they liked the appearance of the Judith much more. There was an eery silence amongst the men on the Judith, other than the occasional whisper here and there. Roy crossed his arms over his chest, they were close enough. "Fire!" he barked.
