((I didn't put the entire thing in italics, but it is an event which happened in the past.))
Kami O' Joe was more or less spaced-out. He leaned over the side of the cruise-liner enroute to America, remembering that which one often tries so hard to forget... The impact of his spear on the car door, as he thrust it through the man's head. The look of terror in the eyes of the man's accomplice, the way he stared wide-eyed at the spear point aimed at his heart. The jolt that the man made when his spear pierced his heart. The jubilation of his ridiculously distant family. The way they crowded and praised him for doing what they felt was a good deed; what he felt was something he had to do.
All this remembering was giving him a headache. He mumbled to himself, "Wrar, I need aspirin....or maybe just some of that delicious cheesecake they server here." As he walked down the stairs and into the cafeteria, his mind firmly fixed on cheesy cake, he couldnt help but notice the "oh dear god" face that a near-bye crewman made as he looked out the large windows which would normaly give lookers quite the peacefull view of the Atlantic. Kami looked out the window, then sprinted towards the deck shouting for people to get in their rooms, pirates be coming. Two zodiacs were sailing a little ways off of both the port and starboard sides. One of the four boats had a man with an RPD, who proceeded to shoot at the cruiser indiscriminatly. Kami watched in horror as one rocket struck the railing where several people were running for their lives. A man in flip-flops and a cheap hat was more or less blow to pieces. The zodiacs continued to circle around the ship until she gave up the flight, and was forced let the pirates aboard. Kami couldnt help but overhear the pirates screaming his name and a few of them waving machettes, apparently those two poachers he delt with weren't as unconnected as he thought....
Kami O' Joe felt bad about abandoning the innocents aboard the vessel, but as he crept onto one of the pirate's zodiacs while they were all going aboard he was planning to maybe lure them away. The one man guarding the boat was no problem, a tap on the shoulder and a knife-hand chop to the throat fixed that problem. Kami grabbed a megaphone on the dashboard and proceeded to scream, "HEY, ARSEHOLES DOWN HERE!", "LOOK HERE!", "KAMI O' JOE RIGHT OVA HERE LADS!" This was, of course, a sad attempt at luring them towards him.
It worked. The pirates piled into their remaining boats, and gave swift pursuit. Kami made towards another ship on the horizon...what he assumed to be the pirate's main boat, the one which held the zodiacs so that they could transport them out into the middle of the Atlantic and hunt him down. He smiled as he glanced at the RPG lieing at the floor of the zodiac.
