Here is a request (or suggestion, whatever you want to call) from LM1991, who gave me a whole list of people. Anyways, here's the next chapter. If you have any suggestions on people for future chapters, feel free to go down to the bottom, click the big green button, and tell me there!!

Beckett needed to talk with his assistant Mercer immediately. He had been hypnotized into thinking that the pirates were good, and thus was going to order that they be released immediately. He was also going to join them, and give Mercer his position. He walked down the cool hallway, and passed several offices. Hearing singing, he decided that wasn't Mercer. He searched the hallway a couple more times, then decided that Mr. Mercer wasn't in. Going back to his desk, he started composing a letter.

Mr. Mercer,

I am resigning from my post, and am promoting you to my position.

In the name of the King,

Lord Beckett

Beckett walked down the hall to where Mercer's office was and stepped inside. There, with his back to Beckett, stood Mercer. He seemed to be singing. Beckett carefully listened to the words, and they went something like this.

"Fifteen men of the whole ship's list, Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! Dead and be darned and the rest gone whist! Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!" Beckett look confused, then started singing along.

"The skipper lay with his nob in gore. Where the scullion's axe his cheek had shore, and the scullion he was stabbed times four and there they lay, and the soggy skies dripped down in up-staring eyes, in murk sunset and foul sunrise. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!"

As soon as the verse was over, Mercer turned and stared at Beckett, who handed him the letter and ran off.

Okay, so that was bit gorier (is that how you spell that?!?) than I expected. There was also a bit of language in the original, but I changed that for the good of the story. If you wish to see the original, it's verse 2 of Dead Man's Chest, and the lyrics are in my profile.
