> Pirates of the Carribean: Ponies of the Sea > by guitarguyjoe > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Damn that Barbarossa" thought Jack as he sat there stranded on an unknown island with but a pistol with one bullet. "Leaving me here with out a drop of rum in sight" That's right the notorious Captain Jack Sparrow, Ex-captain of the Black Pearl and greatest Pirate to sail the carribean. Sadly we are here during his time trapped on the island after his crew mutinied and marooned him. "Well then" he said as he stood up "I may as well take a look around my new home." he then began exploring the island. It didn't take him long to go around the island, nor did it take him long to find and odd door hidden behind some bushes. Jack moved the bushes and proceeded to open the door. He climbed inside to see that there was a lantern there with some fuel left. Jack took the lantern and lit it and what he saw would leave any pirate giddy as a school girl. All around him as far as he could see ... was rum. He stood there smiling as he spoke these words "Thank you Barbarossa", and with that he proceeded to drink the rum. It had been three hours and Jack still hadn't made a dent in the supply of rum in the celler. He was beginning to feel the effects of the drink when he decided to take a nap. As Jack slept though a strange evil was at work. Meanwhile somewhere in Equestria The land of Chaus was a haven for the draconiqi. That is until the elements of harmony had defeated their leader, Discord. Now no one had any idea what to do. That is until they called a conference for all inhabitants of the land to attend. "THIS IS RIDICULOUS" shouted Anarchy, the acting in command while Discord was away. "We don't need anyone to tell us what to do, we can make new chaos ourselves" "But how do we do that" asked Turmoil, the captain of the guard. "I'm fresh out of ideas" "I have one" came a mysterious voice from the crowd "But I need more power to do it" "HALT!" shouted the guards as the mysterious draconiques approached. The stranger then turned the gaurds fur a shade of hot pink. "HEY!" he screamed before he froze and felt his chaotic power begin to drain. The stranger smiled as he approached the head council. "Now, do you want to listen or do I need to take power from one of you too." Turmoil then leaped after the stranger before he froze in mid-air. He then felt his power begin to fade as he soon lay on the floor, unmoving. "Now that that is done allow me to introduce myself." the stranger smirked "I am Pandemonium and I will be your new ruler" > Chapter 1: Where am I > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack had finally awoken from his alcohol fueled nap and decided to get more to drink. When he looked around the cave though, not a single bottle was in sight. "Why is the rum always gone?" He asked to no one in particular as he then decided to stand up and began to feel dizzy "Oh, that's why" He slowly moved toward the exit. As he exited the cave he noticed he was no longer on the island, but was surrounded by cartoonish trees "I must be more drunk than I thought" stated Jack as he approached a nearby river. He had splashed water on himself to counteract the halucinations but when he looked around he was still in the forest. As he reached down to get a drink he saw that he no longer had hands, but had instead hooves. He looked at the rest of him. He saw that his body had been replaced with that of a cartoon horse. He had instead of his usual skin color a yellow coat of fur. Jack then began to panic as he approached the water. He looked into the river and saw just as he feared that his usual charming looks had been replaced with the muzzle of a horse. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" screamed Jack as many birds had flown away from the noise. Meanwhile at Fluttershy's cottage Fluttershy had just finished feeding the animals their breakfast when she heard a distant scream in the Everfree Forest. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" she jumped at the noise as she then saw many birds flee from the direction of the scream. "Somepony must be hurt" she thought. Being the kind-hearted mare that she is, Fluttershy then headed in the direction of the scream to help the endangered pony. Meanwhile with Jack "This isn't real" Jack was talking to himself "This is just part of the dream. It must be from all of that rum. I swear I will never touch the stuff again after this" realizing what he had just said he began to laugh "Yea that'll happen" Just then he heard some rustling in the bushes. He reached for his belt when he realized it wasn't there nor was his pistol. "Oh right" he stated as the rustling became louder as the unknown creature approached. Jack took a fighting stance in his new form and shouted "Come on out and face me like a man ye foul beast" As soon as the words left Jack's mouth a yellow horse with wings had popped out from behind the bush . It looked different from Jack, "It's probably a female" thought Jack. Just then the mare started to cry. "Stop that noise, lass?" ordered Jack obviously irritated, but this only made the mare cry harder. "You *sniff* called me *sniff* a foul beast!" said the mare between breaths. Jack was in trouble. He had to make the noise stop. Combined with the hangover he was having his headache was reaching a new level of pain. Just then he thought of a way to make her feel better. "Well that was before I got a look at you" He said as he gained the mare's attention "Now that I've a look at you, you are simply ravishing" The mare began to blush "You *sniff* think I'm beautiful?" asked the mare wiping away the last of her tears. "Who wouldn't?" said Jack. He had her now and was ready for the night that would soon follow. Even though this was really messed up where he came from, here it seemed natural since he was also a horse. The mare then got up and asked Jack. "S-so what's your name?" Jack stood proudly as he stated "I am Captain Jack Sparrow, greatest pirate to sail the Carribean and rightful Captain of the Black Pearl." Fluttershy was confused, "What's a Carribean?" Jack was shocked. How could she not have heard of the Carribean? He spent much time explaining to her where he was from and all about his world. > Chapter 2: Dat Flank > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack had finally finished explaining everything to the pegasis about the carribean and all of his adventures. Upon finishing he looked to the mare who was staring at him in fear. "S-so you're a c-criminal." She spoke visibly shaking. Jack shook his head "To be a criminal, you must first break the laws of the land. I live on the sea, ergo, no laws to break. Savvy?" The pegasis was a bit confused but she seemed to understand. "Great. Now if you would kindly tell me where I am so I could get some food and drink. I would greatly appreciate it." The mare looked at him funny and told him " You're in a land called Equestria. The nearest town is Ponyville. I'll show you the way." She ushered Jack to follow. Jack walked behind the mare for obvious reasons. It was then that Jack noticed a tattoo on the mare's flank. "Pardon me miss..." The mare hid behind her mane and spoke softly. "I'm Fluttershy" Lucky for Jack, his senses were tuned for him to catch small details. "Miss Fluttershy, might I ask why you have a tattoo on your flank." Again Fluttershy looked at Jack quizzically before she realized what he was referring to "Oh, that's my cutie mark. It shows what my special talent is." "And what, pray tell, is that talent my dear?" Fluttershy smiled "I can make special connections with animals easily." Jack thought back to Barbarossa's pet monkey. He never liked him. Maybe when he got his ship back he would send the monkey here. As they continued on to Ponyville Fluttershy lead the way as Jack followed not even acknowledging anything but the flank in front of him. A few moments later They finally reached Ponyville. Jack hadn't noticed until a pink mare with a darker pink mane came up to Jack and greeted him. "Hi!" Said the mare cheerfully "I'm Pinkie Pie" Jack had jumped a bit at the shock. "What the devil" Pinkie then began a huge monologue at incredible speed "IsawyoucomehereintotownwithFluttershyandthoughtthatyouwerenewbecauseIknowEveryponywho'severbeentoPonyville.AnywayIwantedtogreetyouandtellyouthatyouweremynewfriendandthatyoucanmeetallmyotherfriendstoowhenyouhadthechance.AnywayseeyoulaterJackie.IgottaplanaPARTY!" And with that she left. Jack had miraculously caught all of what Pinkie said which just left him with more questions than when he first came here. One however escaped his mouth. "How the h*** did she know my name" he was shocked when he realized he couldn't swear. He looked to Fluttershy who gave him an answer that didn't help. "It's just Pinkie Pie" "Well that helped a lot" he thought as they entered a building known as the bar. > Chapter 3: The New Crew > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The inside of the bar was relatively empty. The only people... ponies there were Jack, Fluttershy, the barkeep and a strange gray pony at the bar. Jack took a seat at the bar next to the gray stallion. "I'll have a bottle of your best rum, and the lady'll have a Sherly Temple." He ordered. "Oh! No thank you Mr. Jack. I don't drink." "Don't worry lass" said Jack "It's non-alcoholic" The barkeep nodded and proceeded to the celler to retrieve the rum. Fluttershy sat next to Jack cautiously. Anxious to ask something else. "Um Jack." She then looked down "Are there others like you?" "Never has there ever been, nor will there ever be a pirate like Captain Jack Sparrow." He said matter-of-factly. Upon hearing the word "pirate" the stallion next to Jack looked at him in shock. "Jack?" He questioned. Jack recognized the voice. He looked to his left to see if his ears had fooled him. Indeed it was the one person he thought he'd never see again. "Ah, Mr. Gibbs" he says nonchalantely "Good to see you again." Gibbs then stands up and looks to Jack with a crazed look in his eye. "So are we pirating here now." The barkeep returns with the drinks handing Fluttershy and Jack mugs of Apple cider."We ain't got those fancy drinks here, but this'll probably do." Gibbs and Jack look to eachother horrified. "Nope! We're going back to the Caribbean right now, take us to the docks lass we're leaving." He then grabs Fluttershy and leaves with Mr. Gibbs, leaving the drinks on the counter, unpaid for. The barkeep looks from side to side before swiftly drinking the cider. "What the boss doesn't know doesn't hurt him." "Too bad I already know" says a voice from behind making the barkeep jump. It was the manager. "You're fired, Daniel. Get out of my shop." The barkeep then leaves in shame. He then gets an idea. He quickly runs after Jack "Wait! Take me with you on an adventure!" He exclaims while chasing the other three ponies looking to sail. And thus our quest begins.
