The green, leafy being got up, dusted himself off and streched in the sunshine air.

He let out a monsterous yawn, looking around him with a sort of befuddlement.

"Yeah, uh, I don't think my landing gear worked all that well" he said, laughing it all off.

He waddled into a compartment sitting beneath twisted and contorted metal, throwing them out of the way as if they were mere twigs on a pile of leaves. He fished in, got out a pirate hat and donned it proudly. Before anyone could even SEE him move, he was sitting as a gargoyle on top of the crow's nest.

"All I see is land. I think we beached"

Teddylot: Shiver me timbers! I think we have enough scumbags for an actual story crew! This makes me so happy! *sniff*
Umm, . . . FIRST MATE, ZAP!

Answering the call, the teen climbed out of the airship and made his way toward the distressed teddy.

Zap: What's up?

Teddylot: The sky--but we're not here for jokes.

Zap: Really?

Teddylot: Technically, no, but this isn't why I called you over here.

The teddy bear tugged down the boy to his level by the tail of his shirt.

Teddylot: *whispers* I don't know what to do next.

Zap: Oof, that's no good. *ponders* Why don't you just rest in your quarters, while I call the crew to the ship and give out instructions.

Teddylot: *sigh* Arr . . . I wanted to be a hands on captain.

Zap: Well, first, you should learn the ropes before you do anything 'hands on.'

Teddylot: I guess.

The gloomy captain dragged his feet all the way to his room. Meanwhile, Zap had called all of the new crew to the deck of the ship if they were not already there.

Troy rocked back and forth impatiently on a lawn chair, staring in bewilderment at the rest of the present crew around him.

Troy: Well? Well? Did we decide yet? Who're we gonna pillage, when we're gonna do it, and what loot an' booty we're going to revel about over a serving of grog afterwards?

*silence*

First Mate Zap had finally made his way onto the boat. He pulled a large megaphone out from under a nearby plank and planted himself in a visible position.

Zap: *megaphoned* Welcome, citizens! If you would like to be a part of this ship's fine crew, please make your way to the sign up sheet on the captains door. Please do not hesitate, for spaces are limited. Thank you!

A young man's scream could be heard. Some nearby people looked around, but couldn't see the source.

Suddenly, a body crashed within a foot of Zap, and through the first couple decks of the ship. A groan could be heard from the body, which has landed on one of the bunks. The body lifted itself out of the bed, and looked up through the series of holes.

"Where the hell am I?"


EDIT: OOC: No, this is not Rahl.

Teddylot was sitting in his fine, piraty quarters trying to balance a pencil, lead- up on his round nose. After many attempts, the pencil fell onto the ground and rolled toward the window.

Teddylot: *picks up pencil* Curses! Foiled again!

The teddy bear noticed that his handy first mate was still attempting to gather the attention of at least some of the new volunteer crew.

Teddylot: Blast it all. If things don't pick up soon, the voyage will be a complete loss, and I won't be having any fun today.

Suddenly, the large crash was heard outside of his room. He looked outside again and noticed a startled Zap and a large whole through which someone had fell.

Teddylot: What am I boondogglin' fer? I gots to protect this ship from all enemy attacks.

The captain acted quickly, opening a secret passageway located somewhere in his cabin and used it to maneuver quickly throughout the ship. Eventually, he had reached the trespasser. He handled his sword from his pocket and held it against the unsuspecting drop-in's throat.

Teddylot: *best piraty accent* Who be you? A stowaway?

Standing stock still, the young man calmly replied, "Actually, I noticed your flyers as they fell from the sky in my home town, and felt like joining up. The mages of my village used magic to send me here, but let me go too high in the air."

Teddylot: . . . AWESOME! A new crew member! Now . . . where to put you.

The captain teddy glanced around the room until he found something that would be of some use. He picked it up, difficultly as it was bigger than he, and dropped it at the newcomer's feet.

Teddylot: Alrighty, you get to swab the deck until we actually get to going somewhere.

Teddylot then took the stairs back up to the main deck. He squinted as the sun reflected off of his beady eyes. Once he could clearly guide himself around, he noticed his struggling first mate trying to get the attention of the new, disorderly crew. The captain walked up to his good friend and snatched away the megaphone.

Teddylot: *to Zap* You need to work on your peoples skills. Now, look at me do my best. *to the crew* LISTEN, YOU BLOWHARDS!!! I don't want ANY trouble on this ship, ya hear? I want everybody to call to attention on this filthy boat or you won

The young man muttered, "He didn't even ask my name."

Distraught, he picked up the mop and bucket and made his way towards the deck.

"At least he didn't tell me to fix the hole I made. I don't like hammering my fingers very much."

Troy stood at the front tip of the boat, staring at his hand for a second before slapping it to his forehead in a half-salute.

Troy: Uh.. yeah, present, I think.

Kirbynite stood next to the captain. He looked upon the crew as if he was a captain himself. However, there was a slight mocking feel given off from the Dreamlander.

Kirbynite: So... are we just gonna sit around here, or are we gonna get us some pieces o' gold? .... Captain, Sir?

A lone man is riding a homemade hovercraft when he sees something in the skies. It appears to be...

"A trireme?" APH striker gasps in amazement. He sets his hovercraft to "Fly" and goes up to investigate this phenomenon. While he is going up, he is hit by a piece of paper. He takes it off and reads it. "Pirates?" he asks himself. "Wow. I'm gonna check it out! I hope I'm considered piratey enough."

Troy: Forget about this other fellow, we must make haste! Now, no great pirates got anywhere with their boat on dry land, that is, unless we're some piratish mob bosses or something.

Troy is down on the ground pushing the rudder forward, moments before it flies back and crushes him against the ship's hull.

Troy: Bleaugh.

APH is rather aggrivated at Troy's comment. "Forget me? Very well, I shall leave and prepare to sink these pirates." APH leaves on his hovercraft and rockets out of sight.
