Thank You Captain Obvious!
Disclaimer: Don't own POTC. If I did I would ditch Twigg and get a Pintel clone. We need more.
One day Twigg stood on the bow of the ship, the weather was fair, a calm sea and not a cloud in te sky. He turned to his friend Koehler at his right. "There ain't no moon out."
Koehler looked up at the sun that was hung high up in the sky. It was the middle of the day, what was he blabbering on about no moon for? He turned his attention back to Twigg, with a look mixed with confusion and disgust, an eyebrow arched. Not saying a word he just walked away.
Why does this keep happening? Twigg thought to himself. All he was trying to do was start a conversation, it wasn't his fault he was no good at small talk was it?
There was sounds of screeching and of something being dragged across the deck, followed by the shouting of men and running footsteps.
"ey! That's Mallot's mallot, but that ain't Mallot!" He shouted.
Without even slowing down, Grapple looked behind at him. "Oh, jolly, I thought it bloody was!" Turning back to the tiny beast that had stolen his brother's mallot, he shouted a bunch of explicit words followed by "monkey".
Following that was the oh so familiar shout of "Me eye!" Twigg watched as the lanky pirate skittered about the deck on his hands and knees. Pintel following after cursing under his breath.
"Ragetti's eye popped out!"
Twigg's statement caused Pintel to come to a screeching halt. His eyes turned to the taller man. "You're an idiot." He growled before returning to the eyeball chase.
Twigg began to feel a little sad, if not a little bit lonely. His shipmates would grow so upset with him just for trying to be friendly or helpful. A ways down the ship, Captain Barbossa had emerged onto the deck. He was talking to Bo'sun. Twig suddenly had the most brilliant idea, maybe he could talk to the captain! Yeah that was a good idea, he mentally patted himself on the back as he made his way over.
"I want to pick up a whole bushel of apples at our next port." Barbossa barked to Bo'sun.
Twigg came just in time to hear this and of course he had to put his peieces of 8 in. "Why bother with that? Ye can't eat, you're cursed remember?"
It all happened so fast, all Twigg knew is one moment he was saying something to the Captain and then the next minute he found himself standing on the end of the plank. He swallowed hard and turned back looking at the capatain pleadingly. "I can't swim." He whimpered out.
A wicked grins spread across the burly leaders face as he put his foot on the plank board causing it to vibrate, sending his annoyance into the ocean below. "Why bother worry? You can't die, you're cursed remember!" He shouted down at him mockingly.
Twigg tried his best to stay a float, his arms and legs flapping around like crazy. Suddenly he spotted a grey fin pushing its way through the blue water, followed by the emergence of a large mouth full of sharp teeth. It was a hungry shark.
"You want to eat me."
A/N Yes I know, Twigg doesn't need to swim he can walk underwater. Just humor me and go along with it, please. ;)
