Using normal depiction of each, similar to what Moonchilde outlined.
The pirates would land sometime during the day, probably early morning to get the element of surprise. The Ninjas are disrupted from their morning meditations by the roar of canon fire as the pirate start their bombardment of their fort. Meanwhile a group of ninjas sneak out from their fort to try and intercept the pirate landing party. Another group skirts around the coast of the island to try and board the pirate ship unaware.
The first wave of pirate plunders, are taken completely unaware. The Ninjas skill of stealth and knowledge of the island allowed for a massacre. The remaining pirate fled back towards their ship. They board their longboats and rowed back to the Brigantine. Upon docking, something was wrong. Then the pirates on board realized the rowers were not their comrades but Ninjas wearing the gear of the slain raiding party. They open fire on the rowers who quickly leaped overboard and took shelter behind the longboat, meanwhile other Ninjas which swam out earlier climbed the ship from the far side and dispatched all the pirates on deck as they concentrated their fire upon the rowboat. A light resistance was put up as the Nijas took the lower decks, but the Brigantine was quickly ablaze. The Nijas returned to shore, to tend to the dead, wounded and to repair their Fort. A few remain to try and hunt out any pirates which might still be hiding on the island.
The Ninjas had a easy victory, due to their training and skills at stealth, infiltration and assassination. Their knowledge of the terrain allow them to set up a devastating ambush. Most of the pirates kills were achieved during the initial bombardment and during the boarding of the ship.
Round one: 95 dead pirates, 7 dead Ninjas .
As night fall, a deathly presence surrounded the island. The victims of the morning battle have returned to life. The zombies keen senses quickly sniffed out the few pirates which managed to survive the day. At first the Pirates were relived to see more survivors but it quickly turned to horror as their former companions lunge at them with their teeth and nails. The pirates open fire and slashed their swords but they quickly joined the zombies rank.
Meanwhile up in their temple, the Ninjas have their own problem. Their seven fallen companions have returned to life. After a short struggle the zombie ninjas were overwhelmed and bind up so spiritual guidance to be sought. Meanwhile a party leaves the fort to investigate the gunfire and screams they heard in the forest below. A screaming pirate came running towards them who was quickly and silently dispatched. Then the groans of the zombie pirates could be heard scrambling forwards. A fight broke out but the zombies were resistant to most of the Ninjas blow, a few even got overwhelmed. Blows to the head was effective, but the remaining Ninjas withdraw and run back to the fort for reinforcement with the zombies scrambling after them. By the time the Zombies reached the front gate the Ninjas were armed and waiting and most of the 'pirates' died for a second time.
The death, blood and dieing attracted the attention of a sleeping vampire clan from the mainland, they move silently though the night and started to enter the fort through every entrance. Fights quickly broke out as the vampires dispatched any stray Zombie or lone Ninjas which they find. Overall the vampires speed, strength and endurance were to much for the Ninjas to handle in open combat. The surviving ninjas retreated to the still intact part of the forts, and quickly took up defensive positions under the lights. This forced the vampires to attack head on allowing the Ninjas the first strike. A few vampires got slain as they tried to reach the survivors but it quickly become apparent that the ninjas were not worth the effort . So the vampires gathered the fallen Ninjas and returned to their crypt for feeding before dawn.
Dawn was a welcome sight for the Ninjas, although several have taken ill after the battle from the night before.
Final Count.
100 dead pirates
100 dead zombies (give or take)
40 dead Ninjas.
10 dead vampires (Killed by Ninjas, the fact they were already aiming for the head helped them to kill the vampires)
The zombies while having a degree of supernatural strength, was no match for the highly trained Ninjas once they figured out how to kill them. Although bites and scratches obtained while fighting the zombies later took their toll. The Vampires attacked the weaken, distracted and tired ninjas. While in the dark, the ninjas were fairly easy prey, but once they retreated to the safety and lights of the fort the vampires left to find easier food.
