101Disclaimer: The Pirates have stolen the part where it says I own neither the X-Men Evolution characters nor Pirates of the Caribbean. They've only left the part where it says I own Raven and Lightning.
A/N: This story is dedicated to Savannah Blair, for inspiring it. Thank you. . .
And now, Raven and Lightning present. . .
Mutants of the Caribbean.
Scene 9: Happily Ever After!
Jean is smiling as she scrubs her skin even harder. The iodine is not coming off.
Rogue looks at her funny. "Why are ya smilin'?"
Jean grins, "This is the last day of this play!"
Rogue smiles. "Yeah. . . ya know there are two sequels ta this play, right?"
Jean stop smiling. . . "But. . . my part isn't in either of them."
Rogue grins, "They'll give ya another one."
Jean groans. "Great, just great. . . I thought I was off the hook."
Raven steps out of the shadows with Lightning. "Very funny Jean. . . very funny. Like I'd ever give you a break. . ."
Evan screams in his body cast.
"That's right, Evan." Lightning says.
"You won't be off the hook either," Raven finishes. "Let's go ahead and start the play. Lights! Camera! Action!"
The moon shines bright and full through the eerie clouds. A school of fish travels under the waters. It's frightened off by a troop of water-proof IAR skeletons that march diligently towards the HMS Dauntless. Pietro is busy switching the IAR skeletons with real actors when they step out of the moonlight and back to IAR skeletons when they enter it. Lightning helps too, there are just too many for Pietro to do on his own this time.
Above the water, Scott squints as he notices a boat coming out, containing what looks like two women with parasols.
The soldiers in waiting all aim their guns. "Hold fire," Scott tells them.
Toad is sitting in the front of the boat, waving a fan and giggling.
Rogue laughs at Lance and Toad. "At least Ah'm not the only one in a stupid dress!"
They glare at her. Raven does too.
"Sorry," she says sarcastically.
Raven sighs. Lightning glares at her too. He's dripping wet and looks ridiculous. Rogue starts laughing again.
"That is enough!" Raven shouts, floating again and yellow eyes glowing. The people behind her find themselves floating as well.
Rogue stops laughing.
Toad waves his fan and giggles again. "Oh, this is just like what the Greeks done at Troy. 'Cept they was in a horse instead of dresses."
Lance rolls his eyes.
"Wooden horse," continues Toad.
IAR skeletons climb the anchor ropes of the Dauntless.
Xavier, worried about Rogue, wheels to the Captain's quarters. "A moment, please," he asks the guards.
A young extra replies, "Yes sir," and walks off.
"Anna?" Charles calls. He knocks on the double doors. "I just want you to know I, uh, I believe you made a very good decision today."
Rogue looks at the doors with a blank face. She's tying something.
"Couldn't be more proud of you," Xavier continues. "But, you know, even a good decision, if made for the wrong reasons, can be a wrong decision."
The IAR skeletons have reached the top of the boat now. They peer in at a soldier extra standing guard.
"Look into that, report back," Bobby is telling some random soldier extra.
"Lieutenant," a random sailor extra says, walking forward.
Bobby turns to look at him. And notices a weird site. He uses his spyglass to look at it. It's Lance and Toad in the long boat, of course.
Toad waves his handkerchief and cries out, "Yoo-hoo!"
The IAR skeleton pirates climb up behind them.
Xavier is still talking to Rogue through the door. "Anna? Are you there?" He turns towards her. "Anna, are you even listening to me?" He opens the door and walks in.
Rogue happens to be in a rowboat, rowing away at that very moment.
The IAR skeletons come up behind random soldier extras and slice their throats with their cardboard swords. Well, they make a slicing motion and Pietro runs a line of ketchup across the necks. Some of them suffocate the random soldier extras.
Charles Xavier is out on the balcony, looking over the edge at the cloth rope Rogue made. "Oh, what have you done?"
"Oooh!" calls Toad.
"Stop that!" Lance says, irritated. "Already feel like a fool," he says meaningfully.
"Look nice, though," Todd tells him.
Lance has had enough. He's in a dress in front of everyone he knows, especially in front of Kitty, in a dress. He's been dealing with Toad who is acting like it's fun. He is glad the script calls for him to hit Toad right now. He drops his parasol and hits Toad, causing him to drop his own parasol. "I look nice?" He starts choking Toad.
They are both replaced with IAR skeletons in dresses. Lance continues to choke Toad until Raven makes him stop.
"But. . ."
"It was in the script, Lance," Raven warns.
"He. . ." he starts pointing at Toad who is coughing and holding his throat.
"We need him for the sequels," she argues.
He screams and goes to hide until he's needed.
Bobby pulls the spyglass down as he realizes he's watching skeletons. He pretends to look scared.
The IAR skeleton Lance takes his blank gun and fires at Bobby. Raven uses her powers to make it look like he shot off Bobby's hat.
He looks over watching his hat and notices a crew full of IAR skeletons that have pretty much taken over his ship.
The random soldier extras scream in fear and try to hide. Bobby tries to shoot them.
Forge starts crying whenever one gets broken. Fortunately, he's made a few copies of each one, just in case.
Swords come out and soon, IAR skeletons are fighting with random soldier extras.
Xavier opens the doors and see an IAR skeleton stabbing a random soldier extra with a retractable cardboard bayonet. He shuts the door quickly, but the IAR skeleton hears it and looks around for the sound.
Inside the cave, Pyro picks up a strange looking golden statue. Magneto calls out, "I must admit, St. John, I thought I had you figured. But it turns out you're a hard man to predict."
"Me?" Pyro asks. "I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest." He throws the statue and raises his finger. "Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly stupid." He is standing next to an RPE and he pulls out the sword, using it to knock the RPE into the water and throws it to Remy.
Remy knocks the RPE guard down and starts sword-fighting with him. The RPE guard slashes at him. He turns just in time to let the sword slash his bonds.
Meanwhile, Pyro is sword-fighting with Magneto. They thrust and parry and Pyro cuts the feather on Magneto's hat. That makes him angry and he fights harder with his cardboard sword. Suddenly he stops. "Why exactly do Remy and Pyro have real swords and we have cardboard?"
Raven sighs, "Haven't I already answered that?"
Lightning agrees, "Yes, you have, my dear."
"Thank you," she says.
Magneto sighs, "No, what I mean is, shouldn't their metal swords be cutting through our cardboard ones?"
Raven shrugs, "Well, naturally."
Magneto groans, "Why?"
Lightning answers this one, "She likes them better."
Pyro gets happy. "She likes me! She really likes me!"
Raven's eyes begin to glow. "He didn't say I like you. He said I like you better than I like Magneto." Pyro whimpers.
Lightning grins, "She hates Magneto."
"So, I can tell!" Magneto groans. "But. . . why aren't the swords cutting the cardboard ones?"
Lightning shrugs, he doesn't know.
Raven settles down. "My powers. Plain and simple. I'm using my telekinesis to keep the blades from actually meeting."
"Oh, okay, then," Magneto says, turning back to his sword-fight.
Remy is fighting a IAR Skeleton now that screams as it tries to kill him. Remy punches it in the head.
Pyro and Magneto converse as they fight. "You're off the edge of the map, mate," Magneto says. "Here there be monsters."
Rogue rows to the Black Pearl and climbs up, looking through a window.
"Right," Pietro says. "Whatwouldyoupicktoeatfirst? Ithinkweshoulddecidenow. Justsowe'rereadywhenthetimecomes."
Julien smiles and nods.
Rogue, who is happily dressed in a soldier's uniform instead of a stupid dress, slowly climbs up the ship and onto the deck. She turns around and is startled by St. John the IAR monkey who screeches.
She then gets over it and glares her patented Death Glare. The IAR monkey skeleton stops and looks frightened.
The next thing the two pirates hear is a clunk as the IAR monkey hits the cannon beside them. They were cutting cake. "What was that," Julien and Pietro say in unison.
A scream comes from the boat set where Scott and crew are waiting for their scene. Rob looks at Ray. They both hit him over the head. "Ow! What was that for?" They both roll their eyes.
Julien and Pietro look at the cannon in time to see the IAR monkey slide off into the waters. They rush to the window.
Rogue watches the monkey. Two IAR skeletons peek through the window and look up. Rogue gasps. Rogue gasps and runs down the stairs. She hides as they run up them.
Then, she continues down the stairs.
Logan hears the footsteps first. "Shh!" Rogue comes into the room. "Miss Anna!"
Back on the Dauntless, IAR skeletons are beating the random soldier extras. The IAR skeleton Lance and Toad climb up into a cannon hole.
Toad, the first in, removes his bonnet and starts moving the cannon and the IAR skeleton Lance peeks in the cannon hole.
As the IAR skeleton verses random soldier extra war continues, a random soldier extra rings the alarm bell.
Waiting on the boats, Scott hears the bell. "Make for the ship! Move!" He orders as Rob and Ray stand up behind him.
An IAR skeleton notices the random soldier extra that's ringing the bell and kills him.
Scott moves the boats back to the ship as quickly as possible.
Toad and Lance, still in dresses, push the cannon back in place.
"To the ship!" Scott calls out.
Lance lits a cannon as Scott calls out, "Row, men!" The cannonball lands in the water, right next to Scott's boat. More cannnons are fired at the returning boats.
Xavier peeks through the windows in the door at the battle raging outside. He hides as someone passes by and a random soldier extra falls against the glass and slides down it. The IAR skeleton Sabretooth was the one who killed him. He looks through the glass and see Xavier. He bust the glass and reaches for him, but Xavier has moved. More IAR skeleton arms crash through and one grabs Xavier's wig. Xavier grabs the wig and pulls as hard as he can. He grabs a nearby lamp and breaks off the IAR skeleton arm.
Back in the cave, Pyro and Magneto are still fighting. Pyro stumbles but doesn't fall. Magneto takes the opportunity to kick him in the face. Wanda growls off screen. Pyro looks angry. Magneto drops his sword. "You can't beat me, St. John."
Pyro stabs him with his sword that Pietro has replaced rather quickly with a fake one. Magneto looks down and looks back up and sighs. Pyro stares at it. Magneto grabs the fake sword and stabs Pyro with it. Wanda winces.
Pyro gasps and his eyes grow large.
Magneto smiles.
Pyro stumbles back, into the moonlight. Pietro replaces him with an IAR skeleton Pyro.
Magneto looks baffled.
IAR skeleton Pyro stares at him arm in awe. "That's interesting."
Magneto looks really confused.
Gambit has somehow managed to stick a golden pot on the IAR skeleton's head. He bangs on it and pushes him down. He notices Pyro in the moonlight, staring at his arm.
IAR skeleton Pyro takes out the coin and flips it over his bony fingers. "I couldn't resist, mate."
Magneto growls at him, picks up his sword and throws coins in his face. He chases Pyro up the hill.
Remy is now fighting the IAR skeleton Blob while Pyro and Magneto continue their fight in and out of the moonlight, causing Pietro a lot of work. Pyro kicks Magneto down and he rolls all the way to the bottom of the pile of treasure. They keep fighting.
The cannons are still firing at Scott.
The IAR skeleton hand Xavier broke off is crawling slowly towards him. He's a little freaked out by it. He grabs a paper and hits it. It doesn't stop. When it finally does stop. He picks it up. It starts trying to grab his face. He stuffs it in a drawer and shuts it quickly. He has to hold it shut as the whole desk starts shaking. He pretends to be really frightened. Of course. . . it is one of Forge's experiments, maybe he is a little frightened.
Remy, while fighting the IAR skeleton Blob is assaulted by another IAR skeleton. He moves IAR skeleton Blob's arm to make him stab the other. The other stabs the IAR skeleton Blob as Remy tries to escape. They notice him and each pulls out the sword in their gut and follows Remy.
Pyro knocks Magneto into the cave wall and yells out, "Sorry!"
As they fight more, Magneto falls onto a smaller heap of treasure. "So, what now, St. John Allerdyce? Are we to be two immortals locked in an epic battle until judgement day and the trumpets sound?"
"Or you could surrender," Pyro offers.
They battle again and Magneto screams at him. Pyro runs and he follows, laughing.
Aboard the Black Pearl, IAR skeleton Pietro and IAR skeleton Julien search the deck for signs of life. They look over board, and as they do, a lifeboat flies toward them. They turn just in time to see it and fall over board into the sea. The crew of the Interceptor cheers.
"All of y'all with me!" Rogue shouts, as she gathers the ropes to the lifeboat. "Remy is in that cave. We must save him. Ready. And heave!" She pulls and the boat rocks. It's then she notices nobody else is pulling. She turns around.
They all sort of look at her.
"Please, Ah need your help! Come on!" she pleads.
The IAR parrot squawks, "Any port in a storm."
Wolverine looks at him and says, "Tinman's right. We've got the Pearl."
"And what about Johnny? Are ya just gonna leave him?" she asks.
"Jack owes us a ship," an RPE says.
"There's the Code to consider," Logan agrees.
"The Code?" Rogue says, with her mouth hanging open. "Your pirates! Hang the Code, and hang the rules! They're more like guidelines anyway."
The scene changes and Rogue is alone in a rowboat, rowing her way to the cave. "Bloody pirates," she growls as they sail away.
IAR skeleton Lance shoots a random soldier extra as he and IAR skeleton Toad climb the stairs to the deck.
"Hey," says IAR skeleton Todd.
"What?" says IAR skeleton Lance, who's fighting.
"Is it supposed to be doing that?" IAR skeleton Toad asks of the Pearl.
IAR skeleton Lance exclaims, "They're stealing our ship!"
"Bloody pirates!" IAR skeleton Toad shouts after the ship.
Scott's long boats have finally arrived.
"Border's away!" Bobby calls as the soldiers begin climbing the ship.
IAR skeleton Sabretooth turns and starts walking towards the new random soldier extras.
Scott tries to shoot him. It obviously doesn't work.
"Come on!" IAR skeleton Lance cries out. All the IAR skeletons fight the random soldier extras.
One random soldier extra swings a hook at an IAR skeleton. It misses, but on the way back hits IAR skeleton Toad in the back of the head, knocking out the ill-fitting wooden eye. He reaches up and searches for it, but can't find it. He sees it rolling along the deck and heads after it. "Me eye!"
Rob and Ray reach the wall of the deck and look around at the fearsome battle. They shake hands, scream and jump aboard the ship.
Back in the cave Blob throws a grenade at Remy, who jumps, or more correctly, is pushed telekineticly out of the way.
Pyro and Magneto pause only for an instant at the sound of the explosion.
Blob heads toward Remy, "I'm gonna teach you the meaning of pain!"
"Do you like pain?" Rogue says, startling them both. She hits Blob over the head with a big stick. He pretends to be knocked out and falls to the ground. "Try wearin' a corset." She turns to Remy and uses the stick to help him up. He goes to her and they stare in each other's eyes for a moment before watching the epic battle between the two immortals. "Who's side is St. John on?"
"At the moment," Remy replies with a shrug.
Rogue runs off. The RPE has finally removed the pot and Rogue hits him with the huge stick. She gives it to Remy, who uses it like his bo-staff. Rogue uses her fists. She much more comfortable doing it that way.
They both grab the stick and pierce it through all three IAR skeletons with the IAR skeleton Blob in the center. The stick has edges much like a double fishing hook on either end. It can't be pulled out. IAR skeleton Blob had lit another grenade and thrown picks it up and stuffs it into the belly of the IAR skeleton Blob. Rogue and Remy push them out of the moonlight. Pietro switches them to real people and a fake stick. They can't get the bomb out.
Forge hurries to stop the actual bomb from blowing away his hard work.
Rogue and Remy back up.
Blob looks up at them. "No fair!"
Pietro hurriedly moves them as Remy throws a card to make the explosion.
Pyro takes the moment while Magneto is distracted by the bomb to cut his hand and cover the coin in his blood, er. . . ketchup anyways. . .
He throws it to Remy.
Magneto doesn't understand. He aims the gun at Rogue who stops in her tracks.
A gunshot rumbles through the cave. Rogue looks shocked. So does Magneto. He looks at Pyro.
Pyro is holding a gun that's recently been fired.
"Ten years you carry that pistol and now you waste your shot," he says.
"He didn't waste it," Remy says. He is standing over the chest. He drops the coins. There's a line of ketchup in his hand too.
Rogue smiles.
Magneto opens his coat and watches at the blood spreads. It's a clever Hollywood trick that is under his clothes of course, but it looks like blood. He looks up. "I feel. . . cold." He falls down and a random apple falls out of his hand.
Wanda grins. "That was almost as good as killing him myself!" She runs and hugs Pyro.
Magneto sits up. "I'm not really dead, Wanda!"
She sticks her tongue out at him. "I could change that."
Magneto groans. "Why couldn't I have normal children. . . the kind that love their father. . ."
"Well," Raven says, "perhaps if you hadn't pawned them onto other people and stuck one of them in a mental institution. . ."
"He wasn't a very caring father, was he?" asks Lightning.
"No," Wanda agrees.
"He really wasn't," Pietro says.
"Do you all mind if we get on with the play?" Raven says.
"It's a rather long scene this time. . ." Lightning nods.
They all agree.
Aboard the Interceptor, Scott stabs Sabretooth with his IAR sword. The IAR skeletons disappear suddenly and are replaced with their living counterparts. The pirates notice the curse has been lifted.
Sabretooth falls to the deck.
Xavier notices the desk has stopped shaking. He opens the drawer to find a bloody mess of a severed arm inside. He makes a disgusted face, covers his mouth, and shuts the drawer again.
RPEs begin dropping their swords. Toad finds his eye and stands up next to Lance to see Rob and Ray standing over him with bayonets.
"Parley?" Lance asks.
"The ship is ours, gentlemen," Scott announces.
"Huzzah!" the random soldier extras shout, making Scott wince and whimper like a puppy dog.
Xavier comes out and joins in the celebration as if he had been fighting along side the soldiers. He wags his finger at a RPE.
Rogue stands, staring at the treasure. Remy watches and then walks up to her. She looks at him and smiles sadly. He starts to kiss her when they are started by some glass shattering behind them.
Pyro is going through one of the piles and throwing treasure behind him.
"We should return to the Dauntless," she says with a tear-filled voice.
"Your. . ." Remy stops. "Remy can't do t'is, Raven."
"If Ah can, then you can, Swamp Rat!" Rogue insists.
"Fine, Remy will try again," he sighs. "Your. . . fiance. . . will be wanting ta know you're safe."
She turns away sadly. He feels dead inside.
Pyro walks up, wearing a crown, holding a goblet and a bunch of other treasure. "If you were waiting for the opportune moment. . . that was it." Pyro walks past the staring Remy. "Now, if you'd be so kind, I'd be much obliged if you'd drop me off at my ship."
Remy rows the ship as Rogue says, "Ah'm sorry, Johnny."
"They done what's right by them. Can't expect more than that," is Pyro's reply. Remy looks at him sadly.
The scene changes. They are now back at the fort in Port Royal. Drums sound the death march at Pyro is about to be hung.
Warren calls out, "St. John Allerdyce, be it known to you. . ." he continues reading the scroll as Pyro gets annoyed.
"Captain. Captain St. John Allerdyce." he whines.
"For your willful commission of crimes against the crown," Warren is saying as a man in a large hat makes his way through the crowd. "Said crimes being numerous in quantity and sinister in nature."
"Please don't use that word," mumbles Remy, the man in the large hat.
Raven decides to let it slide.
"The most egregious of these to be cited herewith," Warren continues. "Piracy, smuggling. . ."
Remy looks at Rogue, once again in a stupid dress, standing next to Xavier. She looks on, trembling.
"This is wrong," she says.
"Commodore Summers is bound by the law," Xavier tells her. Said "Commodore Summers" is standing on the other side of Xavier. "As are we all."
"Impersonating an officer of the Spanish Royal Navy," Warren keeps going. "Impersonating a cleric of the church of England."
"Ah, yeah," laughs Pyro, remembering.
"Sailing under false colors, arson, kidnapping," Warren keeps going, "Looting, poaching, brigandage, pilfering, depravity. . ."
A IAR parrot flies and lands on the flagpone Roberto is holding. Pietro squeezes mayonnaise on his jacket. It looks like the IAR parrot pooped on him. Roberto looks at it and then up at the bird.
"depredation and general lawlessness," finishes Warren.
Remy notices the parrot as Warren says, "And for these crimes you have been sentenced to be, on this day, hung by the neck until dead. May God have mercy on your soul."
Remy makes his way to the back of the crowd. "Governor Xavier. Commodore. Anna. Remy should have told ya every day from t'e moment he met ya. Remy loves you." she looks shocked and he walks off in a hurry to get to the front of the crowd.
A random extra puts the rope around Pyro's neck. Wanda covers her face with her hands.
Rogue sees the IAR parrot fly off.
Scott notices it too, "Marines."
"Ah can't breathe," Rogue says, pretending to faint.
This distracts Xavier and Scott. "Anna!" Charles calls out.
"Move!" Remy yells as he shoves through the crowd.
Xavier is fanning Rogue with his hat. Rogue "wakes" up suddenly to watch as the random extra who's playing the executioner pulls the handle and Remy throws his sword at the same time.
Pyro lands on the sword, keeping him from breaking his neck.
Scott and Xavier look at her strangely. "What?" Xavier asks as Scott leaves.
Remy, who is also wearing a bright red cape, climbs the stairs and fights with the executioner.
Soldiers are coming.
"Move!" Scott is ordering the crowd.
In a clever trick, Remy forces the executioner to cut the rope with his ax.
Pyro falls and cuts his binds on the sword he was just standing on.
Remy pushes the executioner right onto Scott.
They run with the rope between them, knocking over the soldiers. They use it to knock a couple against a stone column. Their movements are mirrored, as if choreographed. They flip and knock a couple random soldier extras out. They end up back to back, completely surrounded by random soldier extras, out on the ledge which Rogue fell off of.
"I thought we might have to endure some manner of ill-conceived escape attempt," Scott tells Remy, "but not from you."
Xavier reaches them just then. "On our return to Port Royal, I granted you clemency. And this is how you thank me? By throwing in your lot with him? He's a pirate!"
Rogue reaches them at that moment.
"And a good man," Remy says. "If all Remy has achieved here is t'e hangman will earn two pairs of boots instead of one, so be it. At least Remy's conscience will clear."
"You forget your place, LeBeau," Scott says, stepping forward.
"It's right here, between you and St. John," Remy says firmly.
Rogue steps up next to Remy, "As is mine."
"Anna!" Xavier exclaims. "Lower your weapons. For goodness sake, put them down!"
The soldiers obey.
"So this is where your heart truly lies, then?" Scott asks her.
She nods, "It is."
Scott looks sad.
Pyro looks board. He notices the IAR parrot flying off a cannon. "Well! I'm actually feeling rather good about this. I think we've all arrived at a very special place." He has walked up to Charles and said this in his face.
Xavier starts back as the breath is supposed to stink of rum.
"Spiritually. Ecumenically. Grammatically," Pyro says. "Funny words, those are." He starts laughing.
Raven glares at him.
"Sorry, sheila. . . It's just too funny. I'll stick to the script now."
"Good!" she growls.
"I want you to know that I was rooting for you, mate," he says to Scott. "Know that."
She starts up the stairs, but stops. "Anna. It would have never worked between us, darling. I'm sorry."
She glares at him.
He goes further and stops again. "Remy. Nice hat." And he goes to the edge of the ledge. Remy grins. "Friends." The soldiers who were following him stop. "This is the day that you will always remember as the day that. . ." he back up and trips off the ledge. Pietro catches him is time, of course. Scott, Remy and Rogue races to the edge to watch him fall into the ocean.
"Idiot," Hank says, "He has nowhere to go but back to the noose."
"Sail ho!" shouts Warren from a distance.
The Black Pearl sails from behind a rock.
"What's your plan of action?" Bobby asks Scott. "Sir?"
When Scott can't answer, Xavier says, "Perhaps on the rare occasion pursuing the right course demands an act of piracy, piracy itself can be the right course?"
"Mr. LeBeau," Scott says suddenly.
He starts to go, but Rogue holds him next to her. He leans down and tells her, "Remy will accept the consequences of his actions."
She lets him go. He walks to Scott and Scott stops him with his sword. "This is a beautiful sword. I would expect the man who made it to show the same care and devotion in every aspect of his life," which is Scott's way of saying 'If you hurt Rogue, I'll cut out your heart with it.'
"T'ank ya," Remy says.
Scott puts the sword down and walks away.
"Commodore!" Bobby calls. "What about Allerdyce?"
"Well, I think we can afford to give him one day's head start." All the soldiers leave as Bobby stands there looking at him in shock.
Xavier turns to our favorite couple. "So. This is the path you've chosen, is it? After all, he is a blacksmith."
"No, he's a pirate," Rogue says, taking off his rather large feathered hat.
Xavier leaves them alone.
Remy kisses her passionately, grateful for the power inhibitor Raven brought for the play.
The scene changes to the Pearl, Pyro is almost there. Logan throws him a rope. "Heave!" he orders and all the crew hoist Pyro onto the deck.
Logan walks up to him.
"Thought you were supposed to keep to the Code?" Pyro asks.
"We figured they were more actual guidelines," he says, helping Pyro stand up.
Piotr hands him is hat.
"Thank you," Pyro says.
"Captain Allerdyce," Wanda says, her arm resting on the wheel. She walks up and puts a cloak around his shoulders. "The Black Pearl is yours."
He smiles and walks to the wheel. He rubs it fondly. Then he notices everyone is staring at him. "On deck you scabrous dogs! Hands to braces! Let down and haul to run free!" The crew scatters to follow his orders. "Now, bring me that horizon." He starts humming 'A Pirate's Life For Me.' He checks his compass. "And really bad eggs." He turns the wheel. "Drink up me hearties, yo ho!" He shuts the compass.
The scene changes one final time. The apple floats away. Back in the cave, Captain Lensherr lies, still supposedly dead. The IAR monkey swims through the water towards the chest. It jumps on it and reaches down, grabbing a coin. Immediately, Pietro switches it with the IAR skeleton monkey which screeches.
"And cut!" Raven yells. "It's finally over!"
"Ah, I'm kind of sad it is. Pirates are cool." Lightning says.
She glares at him. "You realize there are two sequels to this play, right?"
He grins. "Yes, it's going to be fun!"
She glares. "Fun isn't the word for it."
He just laughs. "Let's go home."
They leave.
Just as they go, a group of men in SWAT gear show up. "DPD! Freeze!"
Manning kicks a stage prop. "We missed them again, didn't we?"
Jean nods, "Sorry? Maybe next time?"
They sadly leave.
Scott shudders. . . "Two sequels. . . this is gonna be awful. . ."
Pyro grins, "I think it'll be fun!"
THE END
A/N: Wow, can't believe that is over! Well, I'll be starting the next one soon, but I do intend to drag it out at least until the third one is out on DVD and I can buy it. I need the DVD to do it. Lol I had a great time writing this and I hope you all had a great time reading it! Let me know by reviewing!
NO RANDOM EXTRAS WERE HARMED DURING THE MAKING OF THIS PARODY. Can't say anything about main characters though. . .
Officially expect both sequels to this parody. The next one up will be entitled MOTC: Dead Man's Chest.
Please review, reviews make me smile when I'm having a rough day. A lot of rough days ahead for me too. . . what with my last grandfather nearing his end and my favorite uncle sick with cancer as well. sigh
