Mutants of the Caribbean
Scene Four: No Good Deed
Todd was standing on the Interceptor talking with Evan and Kurt when he saw Kitty fall into the water.
"So, which one of you X-Geeks is gonna save her?" Todd asked.
"You did not just call us X-Geeks," Evan said, offended.
"Vhat? I can't get my fur vet!" Kurt cried.
Todd rolled his eyes. "Glory of the X-Geeks you are," he said, handing Kurt his gun and his hat. "Don't loose these!"
He dove into the water and started swimming toward where Kitty lay.
"Dude, he did not just call us X-Geeks again!" Even yelled.
There was a loud boom and he wind suddenly changed direction.
"Vhat vas zat?" Kurt asked.
Todd swam up to Kitty, grabbed her, and started swimming for the surface. He realized her dress was to heavy so he ripped it off. When he got to the dock Kurt and Evan helped him pull Kitty up.
"Not breathing!" Kurt cried as he lent over Kitty.
"Move!" Todd yelled as he pulled out his knife and cut Kitty's corset off and handed it to Evan. Kitty immediately started coughing.
"Never would have thought of that," Evan said in amazement.
"Clearly you've never been to Singapore," Todd said. He then noticed the medallion around Kitty's neck. "Where did you get that?" he asked.
Just then Piotr, Professor Xavier, and the rest of the X-Men ran up the dock. "On your feet!" Piotr yelled at Todd.
Xavier ran up to Kitty and put his coat around her. "Katherine, are you alright?" he asked.
"Cha, I'm, like, fine." Kitty said getting to her feet.
Xavier noticed Evan holding Kitty's cut open corset and frowned. Evan dropped the corset and pointed at Todd. "Shoot him!" Xavier yelled, pointing at Todd.
"Father!" Kitty yelled. "Commodore, are you really gonna, like, kill my rescuer?"
"I believe thanks are in order, comrade," Piotr said, holding out his hand. Todd took it and Piotr pulled up his sleeve to reveal a "P" burned into Todd's skin. "I see you've had a brush with the Morlocks, aye, pirate?"
Xavier smiled. "Hang him!"
"Keep your guns on him, men. Lieutenant Summers, fetch some irons," Piotr ordered. He pulled Todd's sleeve up further to reveal a tattoo of a toad on a lily pad. "Toad Tolensky, isn't it?"
"Captain Toad Tolensky." Todd said.
"I don't see your ship," Piotr said looking around.
"Actually, I'm in the market for one." Todd smiled.
"He said he's come to commandeer one," Kurt said running between the group of people.
"I told ya he was tellin' the truth, man!" Evan yelled at Kurt. "These are his, Sir," he handed Piotr Todd's gun and hat.
Piotr looked at the things he'd been given. "No additional shots nor powdeer," he said holding up the gun. "A compass that does not point North," he mused pulling a compass out of Todd's hat. He laughed as he pulled the sword, which was attached the gun belt, out of it's sheath. "And I half expected it to be made of wood. Without a doubt, you are the worst pirate I have ever heard of."
"But you have heard of me," Todd smiled. Piotr began to lead Todd off to the gallows.
Kitty ran after him. "Commodore, he, like, saved my life!" Kitty yelled running between Lieutenant Summers's gun and Todd.
"Careful Lieutenant," Piotr called to Scott.
"Pirate or not this mutant saved my life!" Kitty said defending Todd.
"No good deed can redeem someone of a lifetime of wickedness, Kitty," Piotr explained.
"Enough to kill him, though," Todd said matter-o-factly.
"Indeed," Piotr cut, giving the signal to the solders to clasp irons around Todd's hands and feet.
"Finally!" Todd said triumphantly as he flung the iron chain around Kitty's neck. The solders aimed their guns at Todd and Kitty.
"No, don't shoot!" Xavier yelled.
"I knew you'd warm up to me!" Todd said with a savage grin. "My junkers and my hat," Todd demanded of Piotr. "Commodore!" he yelled when Piotr hesitated. Piotr handed the gun, sword, and hat to Kitty. "Kitty, is it?" Todd asked.
"It's Miss Pryde to you," Kitty growled.
"Well, Miss Pryde, if you would be so kind," Todd said.
Kitty gave him an offended glare and began to put Todd's things back on him, rather roughly. "Easy on the good, valley," Todd said.
"Y…you Toad!" Kitty yelled.
"Sticks and stones, valley. I saved your life, you saved mine, we're even," Todd said to Kitty. He then turned to everyone else. "X-Geeks, valley, you will always remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Toad Tolensky!" With that Todd grabbed a rope and swung up onto the wood over the dock.
"Now, will you shoot him?" Xavier yelled.
"Open fire! Aim for his legs!" Piotr yelled at the solders. He turned to Scott. "Summers, Mr. Tolensky has a dawn appointment with the gallows…I would hate for him to miss it."
Scott nodded and pointed to the upper part of the dock. "Search upstairs. Look lively, men!" he called.

Reviewers Only Test: No one got the last one about Pietro, you'll get to find out who he's playin' in scene seven. New Test, um, seeing as the name Pyro keeps poppin' up like dwarves: Why don't you all just tell me who you think he is. For a lil' variation we'll say the prize for this one is our cast list.
Review Responses:
Got some slight flames, nothin' to worry 'bout though. I just hope they keep on readin'. It's funny, I always thought I get flamed for something involving Remy. Meh, anyways, to all the revierwers who were less than happy with our castin' of Toad as Jack. (Even though I put up the reasons last time) We were going for funny, with similar characteristics. The whole dead sexy thing never came up until the reviewers mentioned it. Now they ask, HOW COULD YOU NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HIS DEAD SEXYNESS!? The problem with trying to match a dead sexy man with another dead sexy man is that everyone has a different opinion of what dead sexy is, Yo?
Or would you prefer: Savvy?
A Note from the Editor: It's my fault for this chapter having been delayed. For this past three/four weeks, I have been going through some very rough times and I took my break. And now that I have, my feet are back under me and shall continue editing. The next chapter won't take so long, I promise.
