Shotgun, you reason, is always the right answer. Mysterious wind flares your trenchcoat behind you like a cape as you turn the corner shotgun drawn. The laughing pirates turn in slow-motion, realizing only too late that the face of the devil that stands before them. You unload two shells in succession, the first through Pirate One's skull and the other grazing Pirate Two on the shoulder. He falls backward screaming. The unconscious man in the middle collapses to the ground. Doves fly away and flowers fall to the ground dramatically as you approach the wounded pirate. Just for effect you pop out the used shells from your shotgun and reload. The pirate takes this opening to try and shoot you with his good arm, but his pistol is knocked out of his hand by a particularly badass shot by Thompson. You kick the gun out of his reach and stare down at him. Then, even though you JUST reloaded it, you simply knock him out with the butt of your shotgun.
"You're unconscious now." You declare. Burnnnn.
Satisfied with the copious amount of street cred you just earned, you turn to examine the unconscious man. Conveniently enough, he appears to be Engineer Chapman "Zone" Malcolm. The very officer you were looking for. He seems relatively unhurt, they must have knocked him out. Johnson hands you smelling salts (you wonder why he has these...) and you manage to rouse The Raven's engineer.
