Once Khaffosi gets a good look at Dead-Eye, he squints and speaks to Arrow, "Wasn't there a bounty for an ugly bastard with a messed up right eye? A thief right? Or was it a smuggler? You better remember, or else I'm going to search your orifices for the coin you stole!"
Deception: 14
(More buying time for the others to get up here than anything)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Arrow stammers a bit more "what? no.....who? I don't know anyone with a messed up eye, please sir you've got the wrong person I'm just a humble cobbler....."
[Performance: 15]
"o-o-ok maybe not a cobbler......but I swear I don't know what you're talking about!"
Dead-eye has his crew alongside him as he watches the bounty hunter double act. "Yer a shit actor." He tells Arrow. "Now, are ye gonna tell me where Tarina is, or do I need to gut it out of ya?" He doesn't seem interested in beating about the bush on this one.
If Dead-Eye and the Pirates (not to be confused with Echo & the Bunnymen) ignore Hunferho to concentrate on the 2 upstairs, all the better.

Khaffosi pulls the axe away from Arrow, freeing the tabaxi and yells very loudly, "Dead-Eye is done for. The rest of you don't need to share his fate. Get gone, or I'll split ya!" Flames sprout from the fists holding his greataxe.

Scenario: Dead-Eye is focused on the two bounty hunters, with his cronies moving to encircle them. The others have joined them upstairs, standing at the staircase, so only 15-20 feet away from the nearest pirate.

I assume that Hunferho is in the back (safest spot if he needs to run away). Cast Sleep, and target the 4 or 5 pirates in the back (pick a spot where only the pirates are in the spell radius). He will also draw his rapier, to be used next round.
(For anyone who has seen "Dark City", think of Mr. Hand reaching out and saying "sleep... now...")

Hunferno whispers eerie words as the nearest two pirates to him (since he's furthest away from the group, we'll say 6 and 7) sway woozily before faceplanting onto the nearby table. (Pirate #6: Unconscious. Pirate #7: Unconscious)
The pirates look around the room, seeing they are being flanked on either side. "Get 'em lads!" Dead-Eye commands them, as some go after the bounty hunter pair, the others towards the group at the stairs. The ones going after the rest of the party seem to try and cut through towards the guy who took out a couple of their mates.
Pirate #1's Scimitar vs. Arrow:7 vs. AC. Hit:7 slashing damage. Pirate #2's Scimitar vs. Khafossi:9 vs. AC. Hit:7 slashing damage. Pirate #3's Scimitar vs. Khafossi:14 vs. AC. Hit:4 slashing damage.

Alea quickly pulls her shield out as the blade is deflected off the metallic surface before Alea pushes the blade aside with her shield and leans in to take a slash against the pirate who attacked her with her long sword
longsword Attack: 19 Damage: 7
regardless if it hits she’s hold her ground making sure that the pirates can’t past her or her allies

Expertly, Axandros dodged the pirate's attack against him. "How dare you!? You little bastard.", he exclaimed, outraged by the fact that he was suddenly engaged in a dogfight. He angrily drew his own dagger and tried to ram it in his attackers chest.
Khaffosi releases his anger and rage with a long and loud bellow. (Bonus action Rage)
Khaffosi squares off with Dead-Eye and attacks with his greataxe in a sweeping two handed blow, yelling "By the power of theflaming fist, I'm going to deputize your head!"
Greataxe Attack: 7 Damage: 5
The greataxe snags on Arrow and Khaffosi partially lifts Arrow in the air before the mighty attack loses momentum.
With a swift paw, Arrow deftly deflects the pirates sword, then before he can strike is lifted off his feet momentarily by Khaffosi's greataxe....however as he comes back down he swings his paw claws extended right at the pirate attacking him
"Cowardly pirates! Let's see how you handle real opponents. !" Pogo snarls as he brings his mace down on the one Alea Struck hoping to thin their numbers quickly.
Attack with mace: 21 If it hits 4
And he stands shoulder to shoulder with Alea making sure these pirates have no where to flee
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Alea is slashed by the pirate (9/12 HP), but brings about a counterblow into her attacker. (Pirate 4: 4 damage.)
Axandros quickly draws a dagger and hurls it, but in the spur of the moment attack, the dagger is narrowly avoided by the pirate.
Khafossi manages to stop one blow, but being attacked from two fronts doesn't let him block both. (11/15 HP). Going into a rage, the bellow warns the pirate of the big greataxe swing, letting them duck in time.
Arrow managed to evade being harmed from the initial attacks, and with his claws at the ready he slices into the side of the pirate, leaving a nasty wound. (Pirate 1: 6 damage.)
Pogo decides to aid Alea in taking down the first pirate, the mace smacking into the pirate's back. (Pirate 4: 8 damage) The pirate cries out in pain, but isn't unconscious yet.
Dead-Eye scowls as his crew are now split in a two-part fight. "Confounded landlubbers." He cries. "I'll skin the cat first." He brings his cutlass and parrying dagger up and advances on Arrow, the two bounty hunters now fighting two-on-one, how unfair! Cutlass vs. Arrow:22 vs. AC. Hit:9 slashing damage. Dagger vs. Arrow:15 vs. AC. Hit:6 slashing damage.
True to his word, Dead-Eye carves into Arrow, taking him down. (0/9 HP, dying)
"FIGHT!" a call comes out, as several of the patrons see the attacks being traded. A few bowls are flung into the groups, one of them staining the back of Dead-Eye's jacket from behind.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Hunferho will draw his dagger in his off-hand. (Hunferho doesn't like using up all his spells and abilities, but this fight is getting serious.)
Action: Healing Word on Arrow. Heal for 7 points. "Fight is not over yet, Arrow, don't be lazy."
Bonus action: Khafossi gets a d6 Bardic Inspiration (have 10 min to decide when to use it). "You will do more damage if you actually hit something."

Hunferho uses his words wisely, waking the tabaxi who is on the floor (7/9 HP) and giving Khafossi a bit of a bolster. (inspired!)
The pirates follow their captain's orders, taking their blades to their quarries. Dead-Eye directs the one that was helping him attack Arrow to go strike whoever threw a stew pot at him. (Arrow may make an attack of opportunity at disadvantage, but currently he's getting away with playing dead.)
