The two sailors in the water try to swim back to their ship. The one standing sailor attacks you again while backing up to the hatch.

4  4

Tuna will dive into the water and catch up with Cass. Hopefully able to catch one of the sailors attacking her off guard.

Attack: 23 Damage: 5

Sneak attack 5

Cass attacks the sailor she’s facing, slicing into him with her longsword.   19 to hit, 5 damage (log). 

All of the four sailors are either dead or overboard now. The rest of them have already jumped back down the hatch. You hear the machinery lining the edge of the ship begin to hum. Something big is about to happen, but you're not sure what.

Attack: 20 Damage: 3

alchemist fire  

Cass drops an Oil and her last alchemist fire down the hatch, then “Tuna- I needs ye here to smash this closed!l”

As you look through the hatch to toss the fire, you notice that the hallway you saw on the last ship is gone, replaced by solid metal walls, each with a tiny porthole on them. The ladder simply leads down to a small room, now on fire, with such walls on three sides, and the ladder on the fourth.

Tuna looks over to Cass and says "I'm not sure we will be able to smoke this ship out. This one seems to have been built differently."

“Aye, yer right.   Any ideas?   I be worried whot all that noise is about- maybe somethin big about to happen down there.”

“Aye, yer right.   Any ideas?   I be worried whot all that noise is about- maybe somethin big about to happen down there.” 

 As you say that, you hear the machines on deck start to activate.

The "railing" on the edge of the ship suddenly begins to rise, and metal plating, just like the hull of the ship, begins to surround the deck.

Cass yells-  it’s like the whole ships gonna turn into a fish and sink!!? You still have that ship breaking maul right Tuna? Let’s see if we can poke some holes afore they go down-  and mayhap we wants to be off it when it do!”  

Then you better hurry, the plates are moving fast. 

Tuna nods and will heft the maul and go down below decks trying to avoid any fire and look for something easily breakable.

Athletics 21 6 plus whatever advantage the maul gives me. 

2 Athletics just in case the maul gave advantage not that the 2nd roll was useful. 

Unfortunately, the room around you is all metal. However, you can handle the maul well, and it does punch a hole big enough to wriggle through, though the metal does have several sharp edges. Through the hole, you see the hallway continue, just as it did on the last ship.

Cass will follow Tuna into the hall.

As you crawl through the hole and take in your new surroundings in the hall, you hear many footsteps coming from a corner down the hall. Suddenly, you hear a voice yell out:

"To arms! We have boarders in our ship!"

If you want to hide, make a stealth check. Otherwise, prepare for a fight.

uh oh.  😟!

Cass says to Tuna “a fair fight not what I signed up fer. .  Follow me!

she grabs tuna, and leads him  back through the hole in the wall, and casts “fog cloud” down to the end of the hall where the sailors are coming  (probably will fill the entire inside of the ship with fog) 

“Let’s bust our way out elsewhere!”

Tuna will be willingly pulled along. And will quietly try and find a weak spot to bust out of the ship while whispering "Aye fair fights mean you are trying your best. I'll try and find us a way out of here. Mayhap below the sealine if we are lucky."

 You go back to the ladder room. There are still two more similar walls to bust through, right (leading to the back of the ship) or left (leading to the front of the ship). The ladder is still there, and the hatch is still open in case you want to run away from the fight entirely.

 Assuming you were pulled along by Cass, you are in the ladder room. Pick which wall you want to bust through from the choices above. ⤴

I think we can do the most damage aft.  Maybe mess up their steering if nothing else.  Gots be a rudder back there of some sort on this mystery vessel”
