@,
Night looked on for a few moments, watching the pirate attack his (ex)cellmate. He had killed someone, and that blood could never be washed off. He was well enough hidden, but as his heart raced and vision focused, he knew he was having an adrenal rush. Though, for some odd reason, the words of a stallion from far into the past echoed through out his mind. "Any lesser evil, can and should be used to fight a greater evil." He whispered it under his breath. He wasn't just gonna sit there and let somepony innocent die. "I've done something stupid, time to do something crazy."
He hopped over the rock and barreled, full speed and tackled the pirate struggling with Quantum. He threw him to the ground and pounced on him once more, grabbing his knife and making an attempt to stab him. The pirate held him back for a few moments, begging for his life. "Please no. Think about what you're doing. Don't kill me, I'll do anything."
Night simply smacked his hooves and stabbed him through the neck. "You wouldn't give us the same mercy. Why should I?" He withdrew the blade and resolved to keep it for later. He turned to Quantum and stood him up. Only to punch him in the face.
"Wake up! We are getting out of here together. Now keep up with me!"
