A story of Phineas and Ferb.
Disclaimer: I don't own Phineas and Ferb. I own only my own characters.
Author's note: Still unable to figure a villainous sorcerer out for this story. But still, I can try again and again until I found what I need. And what do
you people think of the previous story arc? I know they're not long but no worry, they won't end up like the Roanoke Colony of the Kingdom of England
during the Elizabethan Era. But they might ended up like Jamestown, if I decided to do a chapter or a story arc about saving the colony from falling apart,
of course. And no worry, this worldwide colonial warfare between Drusselstein and the Spanish Empire has yet come to an end. Well, might not be in the
next chapters. The protagonists have yet visit the Mughal Empire, Japan and Taiwan Island. And still, I have no idea on how to get to the conclusion to
make the Spanish Empire recognize the independence of Drusselstein as well. And what do you people think how big the Drusselsteinian Empire should be?
Well, one thing for sure is that it cannot be one super big empire because the roles were already took by the Spanish Empire, then the French Empire
and later, the British Empire. So really, I cannot imagine that the Drusselsteinian Empire would be much big around the globe. Whatever, enjoy this chapter!
Chapter 14 Embassy To Morocco
A month after the successful in the colonization in a part of the New World that is now known as New Drusselstein, the royal house of Drusselstein decided to conduct trade
and seek for the new markets all over the world. Supporting and financing by the Doofenshmirtz Trading Company, many voyages set out worldwide in seek of new lands to
landed, new goods to exchange, new peoples to meet and new lives to see. One of the voyages set out to the Ottoman-freed part of the Barbary States for the diplomatic
mission to obtain an alliance with Morocco. The leader of this mission is Prince Percy from the royal house of Drusselstein and his beloved lady, Isabel. Unknowingly, their ships
are not actually heading Morocco. But heading to one of the cities that is being ruled by pirates and slavers.
At Harbor of Salle...
"Are you sure that this is the right port, Your Majesty?"Asked Isabel as she's looking at the view of of the port cities of Salle and Rabat from the command ship.
All she's seeing are the pirate ships of England, United Provinces and Morocco are surrounding the Drusselsteinian fleet. This is making her feeling uncomfortable.
"Well, its name is the famous one in Morocco. So it must be."Said Percy as he's looking at his surroundings as well.
"I hope this turns out well."Said Isabel as the ships are anchoring near the harbor. Once anchored, Prince Percy, Isabel and the emissaries walk down from the command ship.
After stepped on this part of the Barbary States, they see none of the peaceful welcome party of them. Of course, they don't need the violence one. The curiousity did't stick
around for so long when the Prince decided that they better go out to find the Sultan of Morocco themselves. As they keep walking and walking, more and more eyes that
are hungry for wealth keep appearing around them. Before the pirates could rob them, a squadron of Dutchmen and a group of Moroccan military officers suddenly arrive out
of the bazaar and scare the pirates off. Once again, the savior is the Dutch Admiral named Barend Van Stormm.
"Admiral, it's good to see you. But how did you get here?"Asked Percy
"The United Provinces and the Sultanate of Morocco are firm allies. And it seems my hunch was right,
the most famous place is where you and your emissaries will arrive."Said Barend
"You said like that it was a bad thing to do."Said Isabel
"In the Barbary States, yes, yes it is. Morocco is now fractured. Despite ruling two major cities in inland, the three major port cities are controlling by
the immigrant Muslims from Spain while the city of Oujda in the Oriental region at the borderland between this nation and the Regency of Algeria in Ottoman Empire.
And this port town are one of the three that are being controlled by the pirates and slavers."Said Barend and this makes the Prince, his girlfriend and his men are feeling
concern. The Drusselsteinian Prince had made a grave mistake by chose to come here. Now, under the protection of the armed officers, the embassy can safely going through
this den of pirates and slavers with more confidence and more feeling of comfortable. Luckily, they landed on the left side where the city of Salle is standing and not at the capital
called Kasbah. But this is also cause them a problem because the the capital of the Sultanate of Morocco is in the south in the city of Marrakesh but they're currently in the
north and standing between them and the capital are numerous bands of pirates and slavers, ready to raid and capture the unprotected wealthy people for sell as slaves.
To get to the capital, they must go through the pirates and the slavers. But the question is how?
Later, at Marwan Yaqub's inn, in the Basement...
"So what's the plan?"Asked Percy
"It won't be an easy one. The pirates and slavers are everywhere."Said Barend
"You're saying like that they're ones who controlling the city!"Said Isabel
"That is because they are! Every single person who happened to born from the immigrant Moriscos from Spain in the cities of Salle, Rabat and Kasbah are pirates."Said Barend
"Even the bankers and tradesmen?!"Asked Percy
"Especially the corrupted bankers and greedy tradesmen!"Said Barend
"Do you have any idea on how to go through this place safely?"Asked Isabel
"The best solution is to find the person who is the Grand Admiral of the Pirates here. And then, pay him the fee for the safe passage and guarantee for
the safety from anything or any of his men in his bases of operation and raiding territories. After you paid him, he'll give you guys the warrant that can
make you all walking around safely like forever in Salle, Rabat, Tetouan and Kasbah."Said Barend
"Simple like that?"Asked Percy
"Simple like that."Said Barend
"But we just got here! We don't even know what does he looks like or where he lives!"Said Isabel
"He's living in Kasbah of the Udayas in Rabat. There is an ancient fort called Chellah there. We can take you two and the emissaries there."Said Barend
"Any idea in crossing the river without becoming targets?"Asked Isabel
"Easy. We swim."Said Barend
"WHAT?!"Asked Percy and Isabel
Later, in the Bou Regreg River, a group of Dutchmen, Moroccans and Drusselsteinians are swimming in the river while having themselves disguising as floating logs and garbage.
Then, they stopped swimming when when a galley is passing them just a meter away. When the galley is out of the way, they continue to swimming to get to another side of
this pirates' den. Once they reached it, they quickly take of their disguising gears and continue on foot to find the fort called Chellah. In short time, they found the fort and
quickly rush for it. When the Dursselsteinian Prince is about to knock the door, the Dutch Admiral gently grabs his shoulder and points his thump to himself.
The Prince reluctantly lets him deal with this and get out of the way. When Barend knocks the gate three times, then the gate opens little bit and a Arab man
shyly shows his face before them. Upon seeing Barend, he quickly opens the gate gratefully and welcome them with an open arms.
"We're here to see Grand Admiral Suleiman."Said Barend and the Arab man waves his hand to follow him.
"I'll take that he wanted us to follow him."Said Percy
"Of course, he is."Said Isabel and she walks out with the others to meet the Grand Admiral of the Pirates. They keep walking after the Arab man until he stopped at a door.
Then, he knocks it three times and enter. Six minutes later, he gets out from there and open the door for them to enter the Grand Admiral's office. Admiral Van Stormm,
Prince Percy and Isabel walk into the officer while their men are standing outside with weapons in case if thing gets ugly.
In Grand Admiral's office...
"Grand Admiral Suleiman, I present to you Prince Percy of the Kingdom of Drusselstein and his girlfriend, Lady Isabel."Said Barend and the Grand Admiral,
who is standing at the window, slowly turns to look at them. Then, he walks toward to his desk and then sit down on his chair before them as he's staring at them.
"Admiral Van Stormm, I hope you have good reason for bringing them here."Said Suleiman
"We're here for the warrant, sir."Said Isabel
"What kind?"Asked Suleiman
"The one that can give us the gaurantee about the safety and the safe passage in the bases of operation and raiding territories of yours."Said Percy
"In exchange of?"Asked Suleiman as he's looking at them sternly.
"Does an emerald ring enough?"Asked Percy as he's showing him a shiny emerald ring.
"Hmm. Deal!"Said Suleiman and he pulls one of the warrants out from under his desk and give it to them in exchange of an emerald gem.
"It's a pleasure in doing business with you, Your Majesty."Said Suleiman and then he lets them leave without harm.
Author's note: So what do you people think? I know there are no actions here but hey, not everything needs actions right? Well, at least,
when negotiation can still be use, of course. But if it cannot, blasting, stabbing and beheading would be the only answer if an agreement
for peace in war cannot be reached. And of course, there is more than just villainous sorcerer that might appear to oppose Prince Percy
and his sworn brother here. Who knows, more insane people in costumes with lots of weapons may appear too. Well, I got a lot of inspiration
from the characters who are villains of Spectacular Spider-Man, of course. If I be able to figure anything out and if they are worth to be put in
or useful, I'll put them in. So until then, I'll do what I can. And one more thing, this one might too become two-parts story arc.
TheGreatGodzilla's out, see you guys next time!
