As promised, part 2 of filler, funny travel crap is here. And a little bit of the tracking Jenova plan is in here too. Blah blah disclaimer blah! OC Characters Blah?...Blaaaaah! (tell me if you LOL-ed in recognition at this last bit ^_^)
~the next day after breakfast in Port Royal~
Au: The town is clean and I hope you two *looks pointedly at L and Sora* have procured us a ship.
L: Yes, we have-
So: With an old friend. Jack Sparrow. *grinning*
Jack: It's CAPTAIN! Jack Sparrow! Savvy?
So: Sorry Capt'n Jack. We need to sail to Tortuga, Isla de Muerta, and the Ship Graveyard.
~later~
Jack: Welcome aboard the Black Pearl. She's the fastest ship in the Caribbean-
Cid: What? This raggedy hunk of wood? *kicks the railing and a chunk of wood breaks off*
Ja: Stop kicking holes in my ship! *crew finally notices the new comers*
Gibbs: What's with the land lubbers, capt'n?
Jack: some of me old mates that helped me reacquire the ship…now if you'll excuse me, I need some rum. Mr. Gibbs, be sure they get to the destinations they need.
Gibbs: Aye Capt'n! So, where to?
So: the Ship Graveyard first, then Tortuga, and Isla de Muerta.
Gibbs: *shudders* Tortuga is more than doable, but we're stayin' away from the Isla. It went down with the treasure ta Davvy Jones's Locker *walking to steer with the group*
L: *whispers to Sora* maybe a couple of us should stay behind just in case they want to abandon us..it's only Jack whom I trust.
V: *nods in agreement and gives the crew a brief glare* then Cid and I will stay.
~later at the Graveyard~
Ba: You sure this thing is sturdy? *looking doubtfully at the structure*
So: It should be.. careful around the edges, though.
L: *smirks* And this comes from a guy who almost met the sharks in the water if it wasn't for me-
So: Louise? I told you to keep that to yourself-
Ba: *guffaws* Sounds to me like ya owe her yer life.
L: I'm his guardian, so it was my duty..we just happened to fall in love later. *grins*
~in Jack's cabin on the Pearl~
Jack: *drunkenly singing* Yoho! We're really bad eggs!
Cid: *taking a swig* Damn this is good rum!
~After a long while of searching and finding nothing~
E: *hears a crash and sounds of 'oof!'* Gee, I wonder…*sarcastically*
L: Somehow, I knew this would happen.
Re: We definitely need to pick up Shera-
L: *slams cabin door open* UNCLE CID? *sees Jack drunk against the wall and Cid halfway out the window* Damn it! We're pickin' up Aunt Shera, cuz obviously, YOU need a freakin' babysitter!
Cid: Nawh Damn it! I don' need no-
L: Then behave!
~at Tortuga in a bar with Cid while everyone else searches for Jenova~
Cid: *drinking and talking to bartender* yeah, my niece keeps trying to keep me sober and uninjured. I mean, what the hell if I want to be drunk and hangin' out of a window- *gang walks in halfway through rant*
Lo: *muttering* Oh, I'm gonna have fun cooking in the morning..*smirking evilly*
~in the morning on the Gummi Ship after Cid's rude awakening~
So: Louise, it's time to visit the King. We're getting nowhere fast, and I need to see if he has any advice.
Lo: Okay, then. ~at Disney Castle~
So: Hey Chip, hey Dale!
R: fuckin' rats?
Ch&D: We'll have you know, we're chipmunks! Howdy Sora, Louise!
So: We need to see the King. Everyone, follow me. This place is a maze and it's easy to get lost in.
R: Back away rats!
L: Reno! Stop playin' around! *drags him by his coat*
So: *runs into the throne room* Donald! Goofy! *all three excitedly reunite*
L: Excuse our sudden and unannounced appearances but *pulls Sora next to her* we have come for some much needed advice…right Sora?
V: *ignores protocol and cuts in* Jenova has been resurrected, and is plotting to destroy all the worlds this time. She has spread herself out and we have no way of tracking her.
Mickey: Oh gosh! So you're wondering if there's an easier way to track her, huh? Unfortunately, I know nothing of this creature, maybe the way is closer to you than you think.
L: *after a minute* *eyes widen in sudden recognition* OH YEAH! *pumps fist into the air and runs off* *some people follow shortly*
So:..uh I think she just had an idea. Thank you King Mickey. Be wary of strange glowing liquids. That's appearantly a sure sign of Jenova. Bye everyone. *takes off with the rest of the group*
~about 3 days later~
L: GOD DAMN IT! *stalks in and out of her room*
Cid: What the god damn hell are ya yellin' about? *ducks while a wrench flies past him and buries itself into the wall*
R: Fuck! She almost took your head off, yo!
So: Louise, why don't you calm down before you skewer someone.
L: *pouts* Sora, I can't relax. Not with this company on board. *long silence* We need to go back to Gaia. *sheepish* I kinda need help from a certain someone-
So: Shera? *smiling at her antics*
L: She's the only one who can help me on this project. This could be our solution to finally finding that damn alien.
~2 hours later~
Cid: No Fuckin' way! I ain' goin', and I don' give a damn if we do need 'er!
Ba: Ah shaddup ol' man! This ain' about ya!
R: *laughs goofily* just wait 'til Aunt Shera hears about all the crap you did..you're in for it, yo.
Cid: FUCK! *storms off to the Highwind in the backyard*
Axel and Louise: *in front of a small house, ringing the intercom* Aunt Shera? You home?
Shera: Just a moment. *opens door* Hi everyone…is everything alright? I hear Cid's in the back.
Axel: well..Cid's being..himself, and nearly all of us tried to kill him *cough* several times Louise *coughs and dodges a punch*
L: and I need your help with this current project of mine…okay, and to keep Cid in line.
Shera: Well, alright hon. Just let me get a few things.
~back on the ship a half hour later~
Cid: Shera! I didn't know yer coming along. *puts an arm around her shoulders* How you been, sug?
Shera: *twists his ear* Don't try to kiss up, I heard all about your behavior.
Cid: OW-Shit!
L,Axel,R: Now there's the Cid we know.
So: Aunt Shera, we have a room ready for you, but it's big enough to share…I-if you want *polite being wary of her ear twisting powers*
Shera: Thank you, Sora. So when are you going to pop the question already?
L: Aunt Shera, I question your powers of perception *glints ring*
Shera: Oh Yay! That's wonderful! *twists Cid's other ear* Why haven't you told of this?
Cid: *fighting back his usual oaths to answer* Haven't had the time cuz Jenova's back.
Shera: *gasps and releases ear* Okay, so what's this project, Louise?
L: Follow me. *walks off with Shera in tow*
~about 3 days later and many trips into Cid's garage later~
L: *looks for Se, finding him in deep conversation with E and Tifa* Hey Sephiroth, can I borrow ya for a bit?
Se: *raises an eyebrow in question but follows L*
L: Aunt Shera and I need a small DNA sample to test my project. *obviously excited*
Shera: *in lab next to a complicated looking computer/ scanner machine* Come in, come in. Thank you for your cooperation General Sephiroth-
L: *tosses Se some cotton swabs* Rub the insides of your mouth with these thoroughly.
Shera: *takes the swabs with gloves and tweezers and starts shoving Se out the door with one hand* Thank you, now please move to the safe zone. *rushes to scanner-device and lays the swabs on the special paper*
L: *muttering* meaning get out. *pushes some buttons and machine starts up* Okay! Testing in 3!...2!...1! *a typical laser sound and a loud pop is heard, and smoke emits from the machine, while the computer screen goes crazy with codings*
Cid: *in another room with the other 'elders'* Greeat. Now we have two crazy red-heads experimenting.
Reno: Oh come off it old man. This will help us track Jenova. *smoke spreads throughout the ship*
Cid: Not unless we crash first-
So: Hey! This ship is more sturdy than that- *coughs lightly from smoke*
L: *stumbling into the room through the smoke* Believe it or not, it's working! But it will take a bit more time to identify all the worlds that contain Jenova.
Shera: *yells down the hall* We have the first location!
Se: Good, but we should count on the rest of the parts being stronger. She has had time to increase the power of each one. We should hurry. The less time we take, the better.
E: So, where are we off to first?
Shera: Ivalice. *gets several mutters of "Oh crap"*
L+Re* *shear a look* Balthier…
L: *after getting questioning looks* our cousin…pure evil incarnate.
Reno: Acts exactly like me apparently…but is a sky pirate with an accent, some magic, and a spear.
So: *engaged autopilot* We should be there fairly soon.
~2 hours later preparing to land in Archades~
So: *takes the steer and an airship is flying right at it, playing 'chicken' at the last second* FUCK! *enters a controlled free fall until the other ship passes*
Ba(Balthier): *on the radio* Sorry man, but if you would distract the ships behind me, I'll reward ya.
L: *grabs the radio speaker* Balthier you fucking IDIOT! This is the second time ya almost killed us!
Ba: *the radio still on, laughing* Hey Fran! Seems like my cousin came by for a visit! *'Fran' sends him a glare*
L: *if she could kill through the radio, Balthier would be minced meat* Deflate that damn ego of yours! We are NOT here to visit, we're here to kill an unrelenting evil who decided to leave a piece of her body here!
Ba: Sounds like a plan. Listen, if you help us, we'll help you.
L: *looks back at group* We have a general agreement. Meet us in Rabanastre.
Ba: See ya there! *Strhal speeds off as Sora uses the Gummi Sip to distract the other ships*
Re: Somehow, I don't think this will end well…
