There is just one issue with this snippet.

Motoko would only dress up as a pirate if she was actively trying to commit Piracy. As in taking over a boat of some kind.

"And why is the Kujira missing?" Saburo asked the array of his managers all of them looking away without willing to meet his eyes. He waited, and when no answer was forthcoming he asked again. "Where is the Kujira SuperCarrier!"

"Forgive me Arasaka-Sama, but we believe it was stolen."

"How? Not even Myers has the strength to manage this!"

"Ah well... We did receieve a Brain Dance that... The thief sent us this." The woman that spoke was one he knew. THe head of Special operations in America... Abernathy according to his eyes.

"Explain."

She flicked a few buttons and a video played in the holo screen. A copy of a Brain Dance, so the visuals were limited, but it served it's purpose.

"And that is why I am now the Dread Pirate Kusanagi! From my command ship the Godzilla! All will learn to fear my control of the waves and seas!"

The girl went on, monologing acceptably in Saburo's eyes. He would of course have to kill her for this. This... Dread Pirate.

"I want the Kujira returned." He said simply and everyone nodded their head. He would send Smasher. And an entire battalion if he must.

"Ah..." The voice spoke had his eyes flash to Abernathy.

"Speak."

"Arasaka-Sama... We don't know where the Kujira is. As you know the stealth technology, and ECM defenses are top of the line... We have no way of tracking it."

He felt his eye twitch. Of course the fools would design stealth systems and release them, without figuring out how to defeat those systems first! Imbeciles! He was surrounded by bootlickers and fools that had no finesse, or intelligence. Truly his company could not be handed off to anyone else.

"Ah! We have the Kujira! It's... Attacking Arasaka HQ?"

"What?"

"Apparently, it is at the Tokyo Headquarters, and it was rammed into the side of the tower?"

"Dread Pirate Kusanagi!" Saburo cried out in rage.

I lost the track of it there, but I think that gets the point across. I'll admit ever since I first saw the news report of the Kujira

I always wanted to go to the ship in the game, and I've always wanted to do a scene where Motoko goes through the ship and takes it over.
