The Wedding Guests
When we left off, Herbert was falling to his almost certain doom, and Jack and the king were touring the swamp castle.
"So, this is the main hall, but I expect to have it torn out in a few months so we can get a new one," said the king as he led Jack into a main hall filled with crying and bruised people.
"There he is!" yelled a random man who had many bruises from Jack's wooden sword.
"Oh crap," said Jack as he pulled out his wooden sword. The wedding guests began to run up the stairs to attack Jack. He began to beat them back with his sword. "Back! Back I say!"
"Stop bruising my wedding guests," said the king as he grabbed Jack's sword and hit him over the head with it.
"Ow," cried Jack as he grabbed his sword and stuffed it into his backpack.
"People! People! We need to be nice to this dude, he's from Camelot," said the king as he pointed to Jack who was now waving nervously to the angry wedding guests.
"He killed the brides father!" came a voice from within the crowd.
"How is that possible? His sword is made of wood," said the king as he glanced at Jack.
"He hit him really hard with it," said the same man.
"Well, that's ok. My son fell off the tall tower, so I would like to think that I've earned a daughter, rather than lost a whiney son. The crowd let out an unenthusiastic cheer.
"He's getting better!" came that same voice.
"Who is?" asked the king.
"The bride's father," said the man.
"Oh, well then he's been mortally wounded so he'll never see his daughter again," said the king about to go on with his speech.
"He's going to live!" yelled the same man.
The king waved his hand and one of his guards killed the bride's father. "Suddenly the bride's father felt the icy hand of death, and now I have inherited a daughter," the king said with an overyly enthusiastic smile. The crowd clapped now very enthusiastically, when suddenly the pedestrian ran into the building carrying Herbert.
"He's not quite dead," said the pedestrian.
"AHHHHH! He's back! You fell off the tall tower you freak!" yelled the king.
"Yes, but I was saved," said Herbert who had now jumped out of the pedestrians arms.
"How did you do that?" asked the king who was in complete shock.
"Well, let me tell you, IN A SONG!" exclaimed the prince happily.
"No! Any way but that way!" screamed the king who had covered his ears.
The prince began to sing a song about he was saved, but Jack really didn't have time to stick around and listen to this shit, so he decided to leave.
"Yo! Knight dude! Come this way," said the Pedestrian who was now pointing a clear pathway through all the people.
"No! It's not right for my piraty idiom!" Jack called as he grabbed a rope and attempted to swing across the hall. He managed to swing half way to the other side before the rope stopped. "Could someone give me a push?" he asked. No one bothered to give him a push, so he just stayed there for the rest of the scene.
