"Ahh, there it is!" He said looking over at the shadow of a ship floating off towards the horizon. Two explosions burned as he turned taking a last glance down at the ship as it began its final turn towards capsizing. His eyes gave it a quick last once over. They ran over the burnt deck, the body of marines dressed in white unconscious or moving scrambling over the deck as they moved people to the small set of rowboats floating in the water around it. Bodies, bodies, all marines, save one blue-haired fool. He blinked.
Oh ... Remi! Whoops he stuck his tongue out remembering that he'd left the girl on the ship. He was already burning his way towards the cruiser but at that memory he turned back. Twisting through the air he zipped back towards the sinking ship. With burners on full he zoomed in, he found her being dragged by a pair of marines. "I'll take her!" He called out with a cackling smile as he flew directly at the trio.
The cackling fireworks man played the game of chicken with no thought of dodging away. The marines holding Remi were not so brave. As the flying man flew closer to him they dodged away dropping their grasp on the wanted pirate. Perfect for Kano, his hand reached out grasping Remi about the arm. He winced as the weight of her pulled on his still raw wounds. But still he locked her close to him by interlocking their arms. His lower body disappeared as the full sized rocket thruster appeared where from where his groin would be. Tilting his head up they began to rise away from the ship.
"DAMMIT YOU IMBECILES SHOOT THEM DOWN!!!"
"You're welcome girl." Kano said with a laugh as he twisted away from a volley of bullets that strafed them. "Ka-no ..." He looked down at his cargo, "Yes princess?" The fool said with a laugh, as he began to change their trajectory.
Dermott gurgled something apparently not even able to consistently form words. But he caught the words 'my sword'. He paused glancing at her, oh yeah she had had one of those. Kano turned back around. Shifting her around a bit he bit his lip. Getting her in such a position that he grasped one arm around her sternum pressing her back against his chest was a painful maneuver as he tried to maintain their flying balance.
With his lower body rocket going full blast he sped over the sinking marine warship twice. It took most of his concentration to just hold them steady in the banking maneuvers required. But he caught sight of what looked to be her blade nonetheless. With the shifting of the ship it was sliding down towards the ocean. "Shit!" He zoomed in peppered by rifle fire as they flew past the marines for a third time. A bullet whizzed past his head, another shot straight through his cargo piercing into his belly. Kano winced as he caught side of the blade again.
This'd be messy he didn't really have much options for this, his only free arm swung up. His forearm and up disappeared forming a long rope-like sparkler instead. He threw it forward the sparkler still attached to his upper arm. It unrolled swinging forward and hitting the blade sending it bouncing into the air. Double oopsies, he'd missed. The blade fell towards the water.
Another bullet hit him in the side as he flicked his arm forward once again, this time with the blade airborne the sparkler hit and wrapped around the blade. Kano formed what he could of, of a grin as he tried to turn away. But with both of his arms in use and a blade dragging him everything was going crazy.
All the aerodynamics were off as he began to spin twisting through the air due to the crazy drag forced upon him. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" Spinning like a javelin through the air the pair flew in a crazed path. Only a general direction was he capable of giving them. His head spun and Kano grew dizzy as he used all his will to force them into a route towards the ship.
"AWAAWAWAWAAAA!!!!!!" The fiery fool yelled as his head rolled and his balance faltered. A little further ... there it was, the ship was before him. He needed his control back, the sparkler let the blade go and his arm released Remi. Both weapon and body tumbled to the deck of the cruiser. For Kano with both arms at his use muscle memory took over as it tried to correct his spinout.
But no with how dizzy he was he could hardly do that managing at best to turn his trajectory down so he crashed once again upon that ship making the mess of a crate. With his head smacked on the ground and his body piled atop him he felt the stirring of his belly speak to him.
"Welcome back idiot." The voice of his companion was far too loud. Kano groaned his displeasure as he looked at the upside-down form of his feline friend.
