Mutants of the Caribbean
Scene Twenty: Unhappy Captains
The crew of the Dauntless readied the ship to set sail. Kitty looked around angrily at the crew and ran to her father and the Commodore.
"Like, we have to save Lance!" She yelled.
Xavier shook his head and put his arm around his daughter, "No, your safe now, that's all that matters."
Kitty stared at her father, shocked, "He'll, like, die!"
"The boy's fate is regrettable, but it was his choice to aid in piracy." Xavier said, shaking his head.
"He did it to, like, save me!" Kitty yelled.
Xavier and Piotr stared at Kitty at a loss for words.
"The Black Pearl was damaged," Toad said, stepping into the conversation, "Just think Commodore, you could catch the last of the real pirate ships."
"My wounded pride shall not drive me to madness!" Piotr growled.
Kitty suddenly had a brilliant idea, "Like, please Piotr," She pleaded, "Do it for me…as a wedding gift."
Piotr stared at Kitty in a mix of awe and shock.
"Katherine," Xavier said, smiling, "Are you accepting the Commodore's proposal?"
Kitty swallowed hard and nodded, "I am."
Piotr smiled and Toad clapped his hands, happily.
"I love weddings, Power8 all around!" He smiled.
Piotr glared at Toad.
"…the brig, yo?" Toad said sheepishly, holding his arms out.
Piotr looked at Toad, looking like he was more than willing to clasp irons on his slimy wrists, but he realized how valuable Toad could be.
"Mr. Tolensky, you shall provide us with the bearings to the Isla de Muerta, then spend the rest of this voyage thinking of all the possible meanings of the phrase, 'Silent as the grave'." Piotr paused, "Have I made myself clear?"
"Crystal, yo." Toad nodded.

Logan, Lance, and Toad's crew of pirates watched Remy and Pyro mopping the floor of the brig.
"Shiver me timbers." Lockheed squawked.
"Sparky says you missed a spot, bub." Logan translated.
Remy growled and flicked dirty mop water all over the prisoners.
"Did you know my father?" Lance asked.
"Dey Avalanche," Remy nodded, "We knew him. Avalanche didn't think it was right what we did to dey Toad. He say it went against dey code, liked chivalry to much to be a good pirate, better off a knight or somethin'. So, when we found out about dey curse Avalanche say we deserve it and sends his share of dey gold to yo."
"Well I say to blazes with the stupid blighter!" Pyro growled.
"Good mutant!" Logan growled back.
Remy shook his head and went on, turning back to Lance, "Mon Capitaine, weren't too happy about dat."
"Tell him' bout what Magneto did, mate!" Pyro said, excitedly.
"I'm gettin' dere, mon ami," Remy said, a bit annoyed, "Mon Capitaine decided Avalanche needed to be grounded. But dere weren't no ground around, 'sides at dey bottom of dey ocean." Remy grinned at Lance maliciously, "Dey last we saw of ol' Avalanche he was headed to dey crushing bottom."
Pyro nodded, "Then we realized we needed his blood to break the curse and that's where you come in."
The two nodded and Lance looked at them skeptically.
The silence was broken by Magneto walking in.
"Bring him!" He ordered.

The crew of the Dauntless sat on the ship right off the coast of the Isla de Muerta, waiting for their next orders.
"Any attempt to storm the cave could turn into an ambush." Piotr said, half to himself and half to the others.
"Not if you ambush them, yo?" Toad added.
Piotr gave him a look that told Toad he was interested.
"I go in there and get them to come out here in their little boats. Then you take your little cannons and blast 'em right outta their little boats!" Toad said, miming an explosion, "What have you got to lose, yo?"
"Besides the pain in my neck?" Piotr sighed.
"There's still a chance those aboard the Dauntless may be in danger, like Valley." Toad added.
Piotr nodded and sent Scott to find Kitty as he and his crew headed for the row boats.
Scott found Kitty and pushed her into the captain's quarters.
"I'm sorry, but it is for your own safety." He said, trying to keep her from phasing out of his grip.
"Will you, like, listen to me?!" Kitty screamed, "The pirates can't be, like, killed!"
Scott smirked, "Don't worry, a little dragon already flew by and told him." With that he slammed the door in Kitty's face.
"This is, like, totally Toad Tolensky's fault!" She screamed.
