Ranger24: This is the one disney parody I've ever considered doing. And After Nukid's parody proved you could make this story friging hilarious I figured what the hell. This kinda my third attempt at this. Keep your fingers crossed folks.
Prolouge: Skull and cross bones
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Fog was heavy on the water and a chill breeze slowly swirled it about in strange paterns. Despite the mist however the Britannian warship Pegasus made it's way through resolute. Right by the prow stood a young woman with hot pink hair, wearing white dress. Her violet eyes gazed out into the fog with some sign of disappointment.
Her name was Euphemia li Britannia, 3rd princess of the Holy Britannian empire. She was on her way with three of her other siblings to Port Britannia in the Caribbean where the oldest of the four, her older sister Cornelia li Britannia 2nd princess of Britannia, was to be the new governor. Slowly she began to sing to herself.
"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirates life for me... We pilage and plunder. We rifle and loot, Drink up me hearties yo ho. Yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for..."
Suddenly she gave a gasp of alarm as a strong arm grabbed her shoulder. Behind her stood a black guy with a mustache, a stern face, and wearing a green cap. Clutched in his teeth was an overly pungent smell. This was Sergeant Avery Jones Johnson.
"Quite down there little missy! Cursed pirates sail these waters. You don't want to bring them down on us do you?" Johnson hissed.
Unfortunatly for Johnson everyone on the deck saw what he was doing. A blonde haired young man with green eyes stepped forward wearing a white officer's uniform. This was Gino Weinberg.
"Sergeant Major that will do." Gino said coolly.
"Why I like it when Euphie sings?" Asked a female voice. Coming towards the bow were the other three members of the royal family that Euphie was traveling with. First was Cornelia dressed in red with a white cloak about her shoulders. Then there was Lelouch, eleventh prince of britannia. While Cornelia had purple hair Lelouch, who was her half brother, had black hair from his mother. Lelouch was pushing the wheel chair of his crippled and blind younger sister Nunnally who had a light tan hair color. Cornelia was sixteen, Lelouch was ten, Euphemia was nine, and Nunnally seven It was Nunnally who had spoken.
"Well she was singing about damned pirates, really bad luck to be talking about pirates out in these waters. She's probably already jinxed us." Johnson said gruffly taking his hand off Euphie's shoulder.
"Well if we are jinxed then so be it, as you were sergeant." Cornelia said in commanding tones. Gino turned to her looking exasperated. "I'm supposed to say that."
Cornelia glared daggers at the young Knight. "Do I look like the stereotype useless govenor to you? I'm as badass a leeader as they come."
"That and the Author doesn't like you very much Gino," Lelouch added.
"Why not?" Gino groaned.
"Because he finds you annoying, posh, and he hates that you hit on Kallen so much," Nunnally replied.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Gino asked.
"No idea." Lelouch said shrugging.
Johnson sighed. "Well if nobody minds I'm going to get back to knocking some sense into the new jarheads."
Johnson walked away from the bow still muttering under his breath. Gino walked up next to Euphemia hands clasped behind his back.
"Actually I think meeting a pirate would be really exciting," Euphemia said.
Gino smirked. "Think again there my Lady."
He stepped up beside her on the bow. "They're a violent bunch of thugs, drunks, robbers, and holigans. I'd personally see any man with a pirate brand or flying under a pirate flag gets his just desserts."
He glanced down at her. "A short drop, with a sudden stop."
Confused Euphemia glanced back at Johnson who promptly pull his neck tie up near his collar, tilted his head forward, and stuck out his tounge as though he were being throttled. Euphemia gave a slight gasp at the grizzly idea of what Johnson was suggesting with his motions.
Cornelia however stepped in. "Sir Weinberg I'd prefer if you didn't talk about such things in front of my siblings, they're a bit young for that sort of talk."
Gino nodded. "As you wish my lady."
"Actually I found that to be rather interesting," Lelouch commented.
"What'd he mean about a short drop and a sudden stop?" Nunnally asked.
"I'll tell you when you're older," Lelouch said quickly wheeling her away from the bow.
"I still wouldn't mind meeting a pirate," Euphemia said in cheery tones.
"Yes and that's what concerns me," Cornelia muttered following Lelouch and Nunnally.
Euphemia turned back to the sea watching the mist swiral above the water. Then she noticed a small umbrella floating in the water. She raised her eyebrows confused, what was an umbrella doing in the ocean? Then she saw something else; floating on the water clinging to a large chunk of wood was the drenched body of a boy not much older than she was!
"Look there's a boy in the water!" She shouted.
Everyone on deck rushed to the railing.
"Man over board!" Gino shouted.
Quickly a group of sailors piled into one of the ships life boats. It was lowered down and they rowed over the boy and pulled him aboard. Then they rowed back to the ship with all speed and were hoisted up. The boy had brown hair and was slightly tanned. Gino leaned down to his chest putting an ear over the boy's open mouth.
"He's still alive," Gino pronouced giving Euphemia a sense of relief.
"Mary, Joseph, go to church, read the bible Christ." Johnson suddenly said in a horrifed voice.
Everyone turned around to say the flaming wreckage of a ship. Not just one ship but at least three! Bodies were floating in the water amdist blasted peices of timber, floating light cannons, barrels, bits of rigging and sail, and burning fuel.
"What happened here?" Cornelia demanded.
"Most likely the powder magazines, merchant ships run heavily armed." Gino replied a grim expression on his face.
"And a lot of good it did for 'em," Johnson growled. "Everyone's thinking it but I'm just going to say it, Pirates."
"I"d have to agree with that assumption." Cornelia admitted.
"Again you mess up your lines," Gino said rolling his eyes.
"Well the chances of three merchant ships all suddenly exploding at once is pretty slim," Cornelia replied.
Gino sighed. "Okay then, well."
He straighted. "Raise the captian and run out the guns, full battle alert. Load up the marines and launch the boats! Get us ready to move with all speed."
Cornelia glanced at Euphemia as Lelouch quickly began moving Nunnally to the safety of the aft deck. "Euphie I want you to keep an eye on the survivor, he's under your care right now. I'm going to assist with coordinating the search, if there is a fight get below deck and hide."
"Okay," Euphemia relpied nodding. Cornelia ran off to assist with the lowering of the assault boats. Euphemia made her way back over the survivor and bent down next to him. She brushed and against his cheek and he suddenly coughed up a little water eyes opening wide and breathing heavily.
"It's okay your safe!" Euphemia said quickly. "My name is Euphemia, what's yours?"
"Suzaku Kuurugi," he said voice hoarse from possible salt water that had gone down his throat. Euphemia smiled.
"I'm looking after you Suzaku, don't worry."
But even as she said this he passed out again. As his head looled back a thin golden chain was revealed. Euphemia frowned and pulled it off him to reveal a small golden medallion with a glowing pink jewel at it's center. But around the jewel were a skull and cross bones. Euphemia's eyes widened.
"You're a pirate?" She whispered.
"Has he said anything?" Gino asked making Euphemia jump in suprise. She turned to face him hiding the medallion behind her back.
"His name is Suzaku Kuurugi, that's all I've found out." She answered in a firm tone.
Gino nodded satisfied. He glanced at two sailors near by. "Take him below."
The two Sailors saluted and grabbed Suzaku and carried him down into the ships inards. Euphemia slowly walked back over to the railing her mind racing. Had Suzaku been involved in the pirate attack and been left behind? Was he a pirate? She watched as the boats moved out into the wreckage with Cornelia at the head of the group.
She pulled the medallion out and looked at it closely. It seemed to have an erie, almost ominous aura about it. The skull and cross bones grinned back at her. The pink gem glowed eriely, almost sinisterly. Then out of the corner of her eye she caught the edge of large black sails. They were patched and full of holes. The fog seemed to emeniate form the ship. Then she saw the black flag, with the skull and cross bones grinning back at her.
Ranger24: And that's the chapter. Yes Cornelia did just basically give Gino a giant middle finger. Read and review!
