The team jumped down, and landed in Port Aurora. Here, they looked around, seeing pirates all over. Just then, they heard crying. It was from a sailor with a pipe. This was Barley of the Butcher Gang. Well, a rejected rough draft of him. He had a thinner nose, and his outfit was more pirate than sailor.
"Say, aren't you Barley, of the Butcher Gang?" asked Gus.
Barley stood up, and dried his tears, saying, "Yeah, what's it to ya?"
"Where's Charlie and Edgar?"
In an instant, Barley fell to his knees, crying a river.
"THEY BEEN TURNED INTO A PIPER AND STRIKER RESPECTIVELY!" sobbed Barley.
"They have?"
"Yes," sobbed Barley, sniffing, "They got taken away by Blotlings to Pirate's Cove, and the Mad Doctor put them into a machine that turned them into monsters! I was the only one that escaped because the Blotlings were distracted by TV!"
Susie then said, "Stop that. I hate seeing a grown man cry."
"Tell ya what," said Bendy, "I'll see if we can reverse the process, and turn the two back to normal."
"We'll need a boat to get to Pirate's Cove," said Gus.
At the port, they met a toon who said, "Need a boat? Sorry, but you'll have to pay. You picked up E-Tickets?"
"You mean these?" asked Bendy, showing some tickets he found lying around.
"Yeah," said the toon, "But you'll need more than just that. Find at least 50 more, and you'll get the boat."
"Well, let's go find some of those E-Tickets," said Alison.
So, the group split up, and looked around.
With Tom...
"Yeah, I got some E-Tickets, what's it to ya?" asked the toon.
Tom pulled out an axe, and slammed it right next to the toon's head.
"Okay, point well seen," said the toon, handing Tom 10 E-Tickets.
Alison...
"There's a few tickets here," said a Pirate, "But the chest is locked lassy. But I've heard that there be a key that can unlock any chest or door! Hidden with in the Tiki Hut there."
Alison looked at the hut, and said, "Thank you."
Alison entered, and found a toon trying to reach a shelf. Alison helped the man, and the toon said, "Oh, thank you! So hard when you're 2' 0. How can I repay you?"
"Well," said Alison, "I was told you have a key that can open any lock."
"Right here!" said the toon, "Usually, it would cost someone 40 E-Tickets, but seeing how you helped me get that item, I'll give it to you for free."
Alison received the key, and headed back to the Pirate, and unlocked the chest. Inside were more E-Tickets. And a compass as well.
"Me daddy's compass!" said the Pirate, "The chest locked itself when I dropped the darn thing. To show you me gratitude, you take the tickets."
"Thank you sir," said Alison.
Susie...
"I... I like this one girl over there," said a man, pointing to a young toon, "But I'm nervous to talk to her."
"What does she like?" asked Susie.
"Well... she likes flowers, but those are often hard to get. I wonder how she feels about Ice Cream."
Susie decided to ask the toon herself. She came back, saying, "She hates Ice Cream. Lactose-intolerant."
"Well, where am I supposed to get a bouquet?"
"I know someone who could help us," said Susie, looking for Bendy.
Bendy...
Bendy jumped over a Blotling, and spun into it, launching it into a Thinner Pool.
"Hey Bendy."
Bendy shot thinner at the source, only for Susie to dodge.
"Oh, sorry Susie."
"What was that about!?"
"Blotlings were here," replied Bendy, "Never too careful."
"Well, think you can paint a bouquet of flowers?" asked Susie, "I need it to get some of those Tickets."
Bendy looked at a pot with dirt, and shot paint at it, and flowers appeared from it. Susie then picked the flowers, and tied a bow to keep them together.
The Pirate was given the flowers, and walked up to the toon. The toon looked at the flowers, and grabbed the Pirate, kissing him.
After getting the E-Tickets, they all arrived back at the port.
"Okay," said Gus, teleporting in, "I managed to get 50 E-Tickets, and-"
He saw everyone else had tickets as well.
"Oh, um... well..."
"Seems you have enough for the big one," said the dock manager.
"Big one?" asked Bendy.
Soon, the toons were sailing across the Thinner Sea, and to Skull Island.
Tom was leaning over the side, looking green.
"Sea sickness?" asked Bendy.
"Yeah," said Alison, "Not usually one for traveling like this."
