I actually got reviews! I'm so happy, they make me feel happy. My
jackasshole of a father grounded me, thus me not updating for a while.
Disclamer: Actually, I do own Pirates of the Carribean. Yeah, and the world is flat and the moon's made of cheese. Buffoons....

'Well, I got into port alright. Probably because there some high toned ceremony up at the fort. Mind as well take a look at the ships while I can, aye?'
So, I spotted one of the nicer ships and am heading down to take a closer look. From what I can see it looks rather nicer and I'm thinking this might be the ship that I'll comandeer. Unfortunately, that's when the guards spot me.
"Hold up," one of them says, "This dock is off limits to civilians."
'I'm not a civilian, I'm a pirate,' I think.
Although I say, "I'm terribly sorry, I didn't know. If I see one, I shall inform you immediately," and then I try to walk off, but I'm thwarted again.
'Ok, so they're not quite as stupid as I thought. They still don't look all that bright though. Maybe I could get them to leave.'
"Apparently there's some sort of a high toned and fancy to do up at the fort, eh? How could it be that two upstanding gentlemen such as yourselves did not merit an invitation?"
"Someone has to make sure this dock stays off limits to civilians," he doesn't seem to sure himself, though.
'It appears that he takes his job a bit to seriously. I suppose they won't be leaving then. Don't want to make this little walk a waste though, mind as well get a bit of information on which ship to take.'
"It's a fine goal to be sure, but it seems to me that a,"
'Now, I pause for dramatic effect. While "trying" to get onto the ship.'
"A ship like that makes this one here a bit superfluous, really." And I end with a bit of an arrogant look, so they think I really know exactly what I'm talking about.
'I'm really not even listening to the two of them anymore. I all know is that I need to confuse them enough, so I can sneak onboard that-'
".......no ship that can match the Inteceptor for speed."
'Did he just say that one of these here pretty little ships is one of the fastest? Well, I'll have to correct him on that.'
"I've heard of one, suppose to be very fast, nigh uncatchable....the Black Pearl."
'God, I miss the Pearl. When I catch up with that theiving liar Barbosa, I'll-'
"Well....there's no real ship that can match the Interceptor for speed."
'No real ship?!'
"Black Pearl is a real ship"
'You're bloody right it is. ANd it was supposed to be MY real ship.'
"No, no it's not"
"Yes, it is, I've seen it."
'Oh good, they're beginning to argue.'
"You've seen it?"
"Yes."
'Right, this arguement will probably have them occupied for.....at least a little while. This will probably be my best chance to steal away on this ship of theirs.'
"You've seen a ship with black sails, that's crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out?"
'Me ship appears to have gotten itself quite a reputation while I've been away. Hmm, their arguement appears to be winding down a bit. May lower the chances of me being able to commandeer this ship they are.....guarding.'
"But I have seen a ship with black sails."
"Oh, and no ship that's not...."
'Excellent. And here I thought these two might be wising up to my little plan, aye?' I probably won't be able to take the ship out to sea right now. Even a couple of extremely daft guard, like these, would probably notice if the ship they were guarding mysteriously vanished.....but, it'll give me a chance to look around.
".......no real ship that can match the Interceptor for speed."
"Hey! You! Get away from there."
It appears they've spotted me.
"You don't have permission to be aboard there, mate."
Well, of course I dont' have permission. "I'm sorry, it's just it's such a pretty boat"
'ship.'
Whoops. "Ship."
"What's your name?"
He's pointing a gun at me. That really seems a bit excessive just for walking about this ship, here. 'Oh, my name. What is that name I docked my sucken boat under? S.....Stone.....Sampson.......Sanders.....Smith! That's the one.'
"Smith, or.....Smithy if you like."
"What's your purpose in Port Royal, Mr. Smith?"
'My purpose? Hmm...'
"Yeah, and no lies."
'No lies? This should be fun. Wonder how they'll react.'
"Well, then, I confess, it is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer my weasely black guts out!"
"I said no lies!"
'Honestly, they can't tell I'm a pirate? I'm bloody well dressed like one!'
"I think he's telling the truth."
'Of course I am. You said no lies. Hmm, probably shouldn't say that outloud.'
"If he were telling the truth, he wouldn't have told us."
They seem a bit confused. So, if they're a bit more confused it probably wouldn't make much of a difference. "Unless, of course, he knew you wouldn't believe the truth even if he told it to you."
