CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Black smoke billowed from the steam coachâs twin stacks and was swept away by the magical storm winds. Captain Poxie grinned as her motorized coach chugged forward toward the gaping hole blown in the Hallion fort.
âThatâll do, my wrinkly slaves.â
She adjusted a control, and the Eldersâ mechanized torture chairs retracted back into the massive barrel beneath her. As the miniature winches shut down, the belts loosened around the nymphs and the storm instantly cut off.
Trash rained down in the suddenly still air, punctuated by boulders that dropped like bombs, burying themselves in the ground. Coins and jewels clattered onto the deck of the steam coach, and the pirates roared in delight as they began scooping it all up.
Still hanging from the side of the armored machine, Jordan took advantage of the moment of distraction. He dropped his shield and grabbed the top of the wall with both hands. Using his upper-body strength, he began to pull himself upward without the use of his oil-slicked legs. But his body slipped and slammed against the wall as the steam coach accelerated, rumbling over the debris and into the violated fort.
The interior of the Hallion keep was a single, huge room, packed like a warehouse. At the far side, towering shelves held neat stacks of wooden crates labeled with inventory manifests. But the front half of the chamber now lie in ruin. Shelves were collapsed and boxes ruptured, spilling piles of gems and precious metals in a breathtaking display of wealth.
But before Jordan could take it all in, the wagonâs back wheels banged over the stony threshold. The vehicle crashed down on its suspension, shaking him off and dropping him to the littered floor. He managed to land on his feet and scramble away as the steam coach chugged deeper into the vault.
âJordan!â a sharp voice shouted.
He spun to see Immersa spring through the hole in the wall with Bree right behind her. The coal-dusted redhead froze in place, eyes wide and mouth gaping. âHoly crap! Look at all of this!â
âWhat the hell is this place?â Jordan asked.
âItâs an Imperial hoard! This was stolen from the locals. All of it!â Breeâs voice strained with hatred. âThose disgusting Hallions take everything they can grab, then enslave the people to strip-mine their own islands until thereâs nothing left. Now theyâre gonna ship all of this back to their king!â
âNot if the pirates have their way,â Immersa said.
Jordan followed her gaze to the steam coach as it lumbered to a stop in the middle of the vault. With a shuddering lurch, a segment of armor plating slid aside beneath the control platform at the rear, revealing a cargo hold the size of a large garden shed. The six burly pirates whooped with glee as they dropped through a hatch on the deck and emerged through the empty hold.
âWeâre rich!â one bellowed. âFilthy, stinking rich!â
They grabbed fistfuls of Hallion spoils and stuffed them in their pockets, and when their pockets were full, into their pants. Poxie looked down on them and shook her head.
