//------------------------------// // pirate life for pip part 2 // Story: Ponies and Mons // by ezio dementay //------------------------------// Okay so next part of the pirate Pip and his big brother arc, last time they left off they were traveling in a Wailord’s mouth…I just realised how weird that sounds. Hydro woke up first thing in the morning, yawning loudly with breath that smelled like a wet dog, but he went to the top of the whale, got out his pirate scope and looked around for signs of land or more oceans, the latter he found a lot of. “I see…so much sea, that this pirate needs some land to balance out the sea” he looked around some more, before grabbing some rum he hid under the whales tongue and continuing to look around the sea while sipping his rum a little here and there. Getting bored of searching for land, releasing two things while looking around, one he forgot a compass and two, he had no clue where he was sailing. He had no food for Pip either, asides from rum which was probably not for kids. After a while, he felt the little colt of his little brother leaping on his back and hugging him around his neck “Big bro! Where are we going today?” Pip sounded more excited than yesterday, and to top it off, he seemed like he was on a mini sugar rush as well. “Well little brother, we are looking for land, and for you see, pirates have trouble finding land and-“ before Hydro could finish, Pip was jumping up and down on Hydro’s back and point north towards a small spec in the distance, which seemed like land at least. “I found land big brother, does that mean I’m good at finding land now?” Hydro picked up his little brother and out of Hydro’s pocket, he gave a bonbon to Pip. “You did good first mate Pip. Wailord, take us to land!” Wailord listened and began to swim to the island. Hydro laid back on Wailord’s head and began to relax, with Pip copying Hydro action for action, except Pip didn’t have a flask of rum to drink. Along the way, Wailord bumped into something, causing Pip and Hydro to fall back and fall into wailords mouth through his blowhole and landing on his tongue. “What the, stay here Pip!” Hydro grabbed his rum and went outside of the Wailord’s mouth, seeing a couple of ships surrounding Wailord with other pirates in red clothing with red manes and black bandana’s on them, with large black dogs with them that looked more like blood thirsty wolves then dogs. “Move yer ships you landlubbers!” Hydro yelled at the other pirates, with the black wolfs leaping near Hydro and surrounding him, there fangs revealed and there claws ready to strike at the pirate before them. “We only want what you stole from us Hydro and-“ Hydro cut them off with some laughter, before regaining his serious demeanour. “Ahh yes… were you the ones I stole rum from?” the other pirates got annoyed and the wolfs got closer to him, fangs ready to bit him in two. “No, were the ones who had the blue orb” the main pirate captain sent out a giant lobster like creature, with its body looking like it’s built to be as tough as a castle and as strong as a dragon, but Hydro just laughed and laughed, till he got his rum out and drank a little of it. “Okay, let me get this straight laddie, you and your… crew, If you can even call them that, want to steal back what I stole? Okay let me say…” before he finished the sentence, he punched one of wolfs so hard that it skipped across the ocean like a pebble being thrown across a river. “Or maybe I should be the crud out of ya lot instead?!” he said before he drank the rest of his rum and prepared to fight like the pirate he was “Come at me I say, I’ll feed you lot to Davey Jones locker!” The wolves got angry and one lunged at him, fangs aiming for the neck but Hydro’s front leg aiming for its head, his front leg hitting the face of the wolf and punching all its teeth out in one punch, with Hydro smiling in his success of that decent punch in his books at least “You see landlubbers, I am the best pirate there is, and I’m not some run away pirate ether, so I say, come at me! I will have a hoof made of pain just for you!” he yelled in a powerful and somewhat threatening tone, with the other wolfs backing away as they saw there wolf friend skipping across the water still. The only one that would even dare fight Hydro was the giant lobster creature who charged at him with great speed and tried to use his claw as a powerful hammer, with Hydro blocking the claw with ease, but the lobster used its other claw as a hammer and hit Hydro directly in the head with the force of tidal wave, but Hydro simply smiled at the lobster “that all you got?” he said before flipping the lobster on its back and kicking it right into one of the enemy ships and causing it to sink. “Come on, that all you got!?” Hydro yelled, but the enemy was terrified now as they went to their boats and turned around, but from Hydro’s pocket, he got out the blue orb, with his own eyes glowing dark blue as a whirlpool dragged the enemy down to the Davey jones locker, with Hydro putting the orb in his pocket and going back in the whale's mouth. “Pip? Come on, they're gone now Pip, come up here” he said, worried that his little brother had disappeared or worse was caught by the pirates, but to his relief, the giant green crab came from under the whales tongue with Pip in his claw, with Pip running over and hugging his big brother tightly on the leg. “You fought off all the bad guys! You’re the most awesome big brother in the history of big brother in the whole widest universe!” Pip said in a excited and happy tone, but was soon interrupted when the whales body shacked a little, but Hydro smiled. “We found land!” he grabbed Pip and went outside, landing on a small island, but there were some banana’s and some coconuts, which was fine in Hydro’s books, and Pips too. “Okay, I’ll throw you up there and you grab the eggs, 1…2...” Pip was about to object to this, but Hydro through him and Pip landed on the tree, safety landing next to a birds nest with a giant egg. “Should I bring the egg down too big bro?” Pip said in a curious tone, the egg was blue with some off markings on it, not like his big brother’s weird orb but they looked like patterns that would be on long ears. “Yeah bring that down too, and some of the fruit too!” Pip followed the orders and tossed down some coconuts and bananas, while carefully putting the egg on his back and jumping down from the tree, landing with no worries at all. “Okay we got some fruit and a egg, let’s have some lu-“ but before he could grab the egg to turn into an omelette, the egg started to hatch, the shell breaking but Pip placed it on the ground so it had some were soft to hatch, while Hydro simply backed away “ Hey Pip, I’m going to get a cloth for the little kid, or bird or whatever it is!” Hydro ran into the whale's mouth and started to look around. Pip kept an eye on the egg, though soon it started to hatch, the egg shell breaking it tiny little pieces of the former shell, with Pip seeing a weird looking blue creature with long ears, not similar to a rabbits , but the creature seemed to be as soft as water as Pip picked it up and looked at its face, its eyes were the cutest eye’s he had ever seen, but what surprised Pip was what it said to him as it opened it’s eyes and saw Pip, it hugged him and said “Mama!” with Pip running inside the whale's mouth and running to Hydro. “Big bro! The thing that came from the egg called me ‘mama’!” Hydro tried holding in his laughter, but he failed and fell to the floor and started to laugh for what seemed like a hour to Pip, but when he stopped laughing, he went over to Pip and looked at his little bro and the weird blue blob with weird antenna. “Hmm… meh, hope you're good at raising kids Pip, I got nothing on looking after babies.” Hydro shrugged and waved Pip off and went to sleep on the whales tongue, while the baby blue blob creature on Pips back went to sleep too, with Pip deciding to take a nap as well with his brother, going to sleep almost instantly as he layed down on the giant tongue. Okay now next chapter won’t continue this, instead it will be a separate chapter instead, because a friend of mine came up with a idea that’s too good to wait, at least in my case at least.
