Chapter 38: SSPB- Super Smash Pirate Brawl
A bright light shone at the port near the town full of drunken pirates and desperate woman. Kairi and Brian appeared after the light faded; Hikari and Max made to look for something before they headed down. While Brian looked at his surroundings, Kairi looked at her garments.
They had changed again.
Kairi had her hair tied up and the end tapped together with a dark ecstasy rope. She wore a white, puffy, silk shirt, a dark brown waistcoat, dark brown leather trousers and brown travelling boots. Kairi looked back up at Brian and saw that he was in completely different garments.
Brian had a navy blue tri-cornered hat that pulled Brian's red spikes behind or under the hat. He wore a white scarf that hanged over his navy blue and white overcoat. He still wore a shoulder guard and his one black glove but it was the symbol of Little Devon instead of a simple shoulder guard and Black travelling boots. Brian turned to Kairi to see her looking at him, "Are you alright, Kairi?"
Kairi blushed slightly as she looked at the boy in uniform, "Um…yeah. I'm fine." She stammered, Brian just shrugged at her and carried on looking around. "Hey, do you think that the others' garments have changed too?" Kairi asked
"Not likely." Brian replied while looking at his surroundings, "Sora and the others entered the world when it was just in Level 1 and our garments change automatically when it's in Level 2, like when we were at Notre Dame." Brian then looked at Kairi and smirked, "Why? Do you like a guy in uniform?"
"N-no I was j-just wondering." Kairi stammered, making Brian chuckle, "What's so funny?" she scowled
"I just find you funny and also innocent and cute, that's all." He said honestly to her before pulling out one of his devices. Kairi blinked with confusion for a second before just shaking all of the crazy questions that was now forming in her head.
Kairi looked around for the first time and noticed that it didn't look anything like the way Sora had described Port Royal. Kairi looked at Brian as he looked between his device and his surroundings, "Brian, is this Port Royal?" she asked.
"Nope." Brian replied. He placed his device back in his trouser pocket before facing her. "The portal must have sent us off-course. It's the only reason we ended up here instead of Port Royal."
Kairi and Brian then turned their attention at the sudden light that appeared near them to reveal Hikari and Max. "Hey guys, what took you so lon—"Brian just suddenly froze in shock and awe as his eyes widened and his jaw dropped. Kairi wondered what made Brian do this and looked at Max.
Max had a red bandana on his head, hiding his hair but still showing his dog ears. He wore a white puffy shirt, dark brown ¾ trousers and brown travelling boots. Kairi mentally noted that Max's appearance wouldn't have just froze Brian then noticed that Max was gasping. Kairi turned her attention to Hikari, making her eyes widened in surprise.
Hikari was wearing a pink fluffy lacy dress that shown a bit of her chest and her legs and she didn't look pleased one bit.
"H-H-Hikari? Y-you're wearing a…er…d-dress." Max stammered.
Hikari looked deadly at Max, "YOU THINK I HAVEN'T NOTICED!!" Hikari yelled at him, making Max stop gasping. "I OFFICIAL HATE THIS WORLD!!!" Hikari looks at Kairi to see that she is dressed like a pirate. "THIS IS UNFAIR!!! WHY OUT OF ALL OF US DO I HAVE TO I HAVE TO WEAR A STUPID DRESS BUT NOT JUST ANY DRESS, A BLOODY SLUT'S DRESS. I LOOK LIKE THAT SLUT OF THE ENDLESS." She screamed with annoyance.
Kairi looked at Max, "Does she mean that endless that can sense the emotion love? Er..Lizza, was it?" Max nodded his head, "But I would have though that Lizza would have come from somewhere romantic like Notre Dame or Beast's Castle."
"Trust me; even her comrades think that they might have mistaken her emotion." Max laughed. He quickly stopped though when he noticed Hikari trying to bring Brian out of his stance, who was still in the same position as before, and was walking back to him with a shovel in her hands. Max quickly ran over there, "Hikari! No!" he grabbed the shovel off of her and threw it on the floor.
"WHY THE HELL NOT! HE'S GONE ALL GOOGLY EYES ON ME AND IT'S CREEPING ME OUT." Hikari pouted and turned her back to Max. She then noticed a pirate walk into an alley and picked up the shovel without Max or Kairi noticing. "I'll be right back." She then hurried to follow the pirate.
As soon as Hikari was gone, Brian jumped and blinked a couple of times as he looked at Kairi, "What happened?"
"You completely blank out from seeing Hikari in a dress." Kairi explained.
"What?!?" Brian gasped then turned to Max, "Did you get a picture to get her back with?" he asked
"I was too busy trying to prevent Hikari knocking you out with a shovel." Max huffed, "Besides, I don't have a camera with me."
"Then what did you get in the gummi?" Brian asked. Max then dug in his pockets and pulled out two large golden rings. Max placed the rings around his left forearm, making it float. Max then held out his hand and a burst of light appeared and revealed his bow.
"I got these rings from Kyle, it lets me summon my bow in a similar way Kairi and the others summon their Keyblades." Max explained
"And you needed to do that because??" Brian said in a monotone voice.
"Because it's cool the way the Keyblades just appear out of thin air." Max pointed out
"Yeah, that's about the only thing cool about the Keyblade." Brian huffed
"What you think the Keyblade is useless?" Max questioned
"Useless is an understatement." Brian argued, "If you were on a world full of angry 10-foot tall alien robots and you only had that stupid key as a defence. The key would snap in half on the first strike or brock and then you would get squashed by the robot's giant foot."
"I think you're over exacturating a bit Brian." Kairi placed his hands on her hips. "Didn't you have a Keyblade?"
"What?!?" Brian said in disbelief
"Now that you mention it, I remembered you having a Keyblade when we first met." Max added
"Now who's over exacturating! You guys are properly mistaking me for my twat of a brother." Brian came back
"But Hikari said that you had one before." Kairi revealed
"And I remember you having it all the time before the Recon Mission." Max added
"Well you guys may think that I have a Keyblade but I think I would remember if I had one." Brian turned his attention to approaching footsteps to see Hikari approaching them. Brian then looked back at Max and Kairi. "And you guys lied; Hikari is not wearing a dress." Max was about to argue when he noticed Hikari's new set of clothes.
Hikari was now wearing a creamily coloured puffy shirt, a brown pirate cutlass holder where she had placed her Eternal sword in, dark brown breeches, pirate belt and boots. She swings a brown tri-cornered hat before placing it on her head.
Max immediately questioned, "Where did you get those clothes?"
"What are you talking about? My clothes were always like this" Hikari replied
"You were wearing a pink fluffy dress a minute ago." Kairi said
"Yeah right, I wouldn't be dead caught in a dress. I wouldn't even put one on of that matter, even if I was paid lots of munny." Hikari replied. "C'mon, let's find this Sparrow person." When the group walked passed the alley to get to the town centre, Max quickly looked down the alley to see the pirate that had walked passed earlier knocked out with a pink puffy lacy dress on.
BOWBOWBOW
The foursome entered some pirate pub where the other pirates had spotted Jack Sparrow in. The group sighed as they saw how many drunken pirates there was in this small pub. Brian was the first to speak, "How are we going to find him? We don't even know what this Captain looks like."
"Well Sora described Jack's appearance when he was telling me his adventures." Kairi said
"My dad told me a bit about him as well; at least I think he was talking about him." Max added
"So what are we looking for?" Hikari asked
"Sora said that he never anywhere without his hat, is always wobbling from the amount of drink he had and has one of those pirate goatees." Kairi answered
"Well that narrows it down to everyone." Brian said sarcastically
"What did your dad tell you, Max?" Hikari asked
"Well dad said that he had no shots or powder in his gun, a compass that doesn't point north and a cutlass sword that looks like it has been made of wood." Max listed
"He is in fact the worst pirate I've ever heard of." Brian blankly said
"It's the only pirate you've ever heard of." Hikari replied.
"It still narrows it down to everyone." Brian complained, "Face it; we have no idea who we are looking for."
"Well, why don't we split up? If we cover more ground, we might find someone with at least most of those features." Kairi suggested
"Good idea." Hikari said then face Max and Brian, "You guys search over that side near the bar while me and Kairi search over here." The guys nodded and the two started to search the bar.
After a while, Max and Brian decided to take a break from checking every pirate's appearance and actions. The two sat on the stalls and ordered to bottles of water. While they waited for their drinks, Max turned towards Brian, "Are you alright Brian?"
"Of course I'm alright. Why do you ask?" Brian raised an eyebrow
"Well you just seem to have your mind on something else." Max said. Max looked at Brian to see that he didn't respond, "Oh come on, man. You can tell me what's wrong." Max placed his hand on Brian's shoulder and gave him an assuring smile.
"It's just dreams, that all." Brian shrugged Max's hand off his shoulder.
"What kind of dreams?" Max asked
"Dreams that make not sense." Brian said in a low tone.
Max was about to ask about it when the bartender placed two mugs of rum next to them. Max swung round to the bartender, "Hey! We didn't order this." Max complained
"This is Tortuga! You either drink the rum or get out." The bartender said before walking away. If Max carried on looking at the bartender instead of his mug of rum, he would have noticed a flash of dark red.
Max looked at his drink in disgust, "There is no way I'm having this."
"Giive it to me then." Brian said as he swung around and quickly downed his drink. He then took Max's drink and downed that too.
"Brian, I don't think that-"
"It's only a drink, mate. Nothin' wrong with that." Brian drowsy said. He swung back around and saw a pirate interviewing other pirates. "Let's check that table out." He said before getting up and walking towards the table.
"Brian! Wait!" Max chased after him
Kairi and Hikari stood at the entrance of the pub trying to get some sort of fresh air. Hikari looked at Kairi, "It's hopeless. They all look the same." Hikari whined.
"I have to agree, there is nothing but rum, pirates and more rum." Kairi sighed before sitting down. Kairi looked at Hikari when she didn't sit down and noticed that the expression on her face. "What is it?"
"I just remembered why not only Brian but all of the Devon brothers are not allowed on Port Royal." Hikari said with a hint of fear in her voice.
"Hikari…"
"The Devons, including Brian, has always had a problem around rum and we had just left Brian in a pub full of it." Kairi now understood why Hikari suddenly went panicky. When the two heard a smash and some yelling in the pub, the two rushed back in their and started to search for Brian.
The two came towards the crowd to see Brian aiming his staff at two pirates with Max trying to calm the pirates and Brian. When their got closer, they could hear the conversation.
"You two look familiar, have I threatened you before?" one of the pirates asked as he had his cutlass out.
"Not in this lifetime, Sparrow." Brian spat nastily at him. Kairi and Hikari looked at the two pirates to see that the one that had the cutlass out fit the horrible description of Jack Sparrow. They were glad that they had found him but they didn't need Brian giving off the impression that they're there to kill him. "You are going to help us find our friends."
"I would love to help you lad but I don't see any profit for me and I have my own troubles to deal with." Jack replied, "Maybe if you scratch my back, I might scratch yours."
"Sorry, I don't have time to play your tricks." Brian said as he began to cast a thunder spell.
"Brian! No!" Max dived in and pushed Brian's staff upwards, making the thunder spell to fire towards the ceiling, reflected of the metal lamp and hit one of the punter's mug. The punter then shot the next pirate next to him. Soon, the entire place was in one huge brawl; including Kairi, Hikari, Brian and Max.
Kairi summoned Oathkeeper and started to parry the pirate's attacks. Couple of pirates started to shoot at her and quickly reflected the bullets with her Keyblade. A pirate grabbed Kairi's arm from behind and dragged her towards to bar. Kairi placed a foot on the bar and flipped kicked the pirate in the face. Kairi regained her balance, not noticing a pirate with a broken glass bottle behind her.
"DUCK!"
Kairi took the advice and quickly ducked, revealing the pirate to a frozen blizzard blast. Kairi looked up to see a boy that seem to be the same age as her, holding an silver Gunblade with it's handle looking like an icicle.
He had short black hair and deep cerulean blue eyes. He wore a deep blue scarf that the ends ran down his back, a black and blue T-shirt with silver zips at the bottom, black fingerless gloves, black and dark blue baggy bottoms and white and black boots. The boy handled out his hand and Kairi quickly took it. Kairi noticed that his fingertips were thunder blue and were in the shape of claws.
The boy pulled Kairi on the bar and saw pirate heartless appear in front of them. The boy pointed towards the staircase where Kairi saw Hikari and Max trying to follow Jack and the other pirate. Kairi cast a light spell to push the heartless back and the two retreated upstairs.
Hikari kicked the pirate away from her, resulting to the pirate falling off the balcony. Hikari looked down at the crowd to see that Brian was fighting and drinking everyone's rum at the same time. She sighed with annoyance then faced Max, who was shooting anyone who tried to attack them and try to stop Jack at the same time. Hikari told Max to carry on following Jack while she'll try to get Brian. Max agreed and ran after Jack while Hikari jumped over the balcony and landed gracefully on the ground before pulling out her blade and fought her way towards Brian.
Max turned his bow into two separate blades and started to cut though the pirate heartless that started to appear since the brawl started. Max could see Jack and the other pirate in front of him and was seconds from reaching them when he felt something grab his foot and pull him down, dropping his blades in the process. Max rolled around to face one of the pirates that had fallen to Hikari and was about to stab Max with his dagger when blizzard spell froze the pirate in place and was scattered from the strike of a silver Gunblade. Kairi came over and helped Max up and then saw that they had lost Sparrow.
Brian was fighting of pirates, drinking rum while Hikari was on the other side of the support beam. Brian threateningly holds a bottle of rum in his right hand, "Come on, men! Who wants some? Form an orderly line; I'll have you all one by one. Come on, who's first?" Brian challenged.
From behind, Hikari grabs the bottle from Brian, smashes it over his head and knocked him out, "I just wanted the pleasure of doing that myself!" The crowd cheers and everyone holds up their mugs in a toast.
BOWBOWBOW
The unconscious Brian is throw into the mud with some pigs, Hikari, Kairi and the boy approached the drunken teen while the crowd when back inside. Kairi slowly walked towards Brian and kneeled down beside him. Brian had lost his tri-cornered hat during the fight and ripped his sleeves off the overcoat. Kairi sighed, "Brian Devon…What has this world done to you."
"That's Haru for you." The boy said.
Hikari turned towards the boy, "How come you always call him that?" she asked
"Because that's what I used to call him." The boy replied before facing Kairi and held his hand out. "I'm Nikolai."
"Nikolai? Aren't you one of the-" Kairi began
"Yeah, don't remind me." Nikolai answered before she finished, "It's a good thing I'm a neutral otherwise the Dark Master would have send one of the other members after me."
Kairi eyed Nikolai's hand before grabbing it and shook it. "I'm Kairi." She smiled. Nikolai smiled at the princess of heart before looking at Hikari.
"Something's not right with the energies and the Order is starting to notice it." Nikolai said in a serious tone after letting go of Kairi's hand.
"What is it?" Hikari asked.
"The Dark Master is keeping an eye on Sora, thinking that he might have the virus." Nikolai answered.
"Sora has been tested though and the results were clear." Kairi protested
"Did you see the test results for yourself?" Nikolai asked. Hikari and Kairi shook their heads, "I better watch out for Sora then."
"Hey guys! Guess who I've found." Max called from the bar. Hikari and Kairi looked back to see Nikolai gone.
"Head towards the port to find Sparrow. When you get on the Black Pearl, I'll tell you more." Nikolai's voice came from nowhere.
Just then, Max appeared with a woman that seemed to be dressed like a cabin boy. "This is Elizabeth Swann, she knows my dad, Donald and Sora and more importantly she's looking for Jack Sparrow too." Max then stepped near his friends, "Elizabeth, this is Hikari, Kairi and…er…where's Brian?"
"Behind you." Hikari and Kairi said in unison. Max turned around and saw Brian being to wake up. Max when over to aid Brian while Elizabeth approached Hikari and Kairi.
"It's a pleasure to meet you." Elizabeth smiled then faced Kairi, "I've heard a lot about you from Sora, Kairi."
"Really?" Kairi giggled
"We have no time for 'the bigfoot story'." Brian said drunkenly as Max supported him, "If you remember, we have to find Sparrow."
"Your friend is right." Elizabeth agreed, "Let's find Jack." The others agreed and headed towards the port.
