Chapter 20

This was certainly was to be an interesting wedding. It’s the first time that a pirate was to marry a royal. And it will be very interesting to see the royals and the pirates come together.

Ships from all over the world were gathering in Spain to celebrate the wedding of Lurg and Audra. But many royals from other countries (i.e. England and France) were not coming to the wedding because they were boycotting the fact that a royal family member was marrying a pirate.

Skully and Condi got to the palace and was greeted by the Queen. They went in and congratulated Lurg and Audra. Although Audra was the youngest of her sisters she was the first to be married. Skully soon realized that none of his crew was in Spain yet. Condi and Skully spent the day with Lurg and Audra. The four of them were walking in the palace gardens when they passed by a grand water fountain and naturally Lurg shoved Skully into the water. Skully got up and pulled Lurg into the water. He then went and picked up Condi and body slammed her into the water. And then Skully went after Audra. Everyone scream at Skully to make him stop. But he picked her up anyways and threw her also into the water; she immediately turned into a mermaid. Audra climbed out of the fountain, and flapped around on the ground.
“Thanks Ass” She said to Skully, the four of them laughed. Skully had forgotten about her “condition”. After about a half hour she was dried off, and they continued their walk.

The next day (the day before the wedding) more ships were arriving in the harbor and amoung them was the Skull Galleon. Barron Von Black brought Finale over with her boyfriend Jolly Roger, and he brought Bella Dizzy and Liza Dregg who were with Venom Kisser. Through out the day more ships came carrying crew of the Judith Prosperous. And many other familiar faces came into port during the day too. The last ship to arrive was a ship carrying the Elders. The Elders only attended extremely important events and this wedding was going to be grand!

Wedding bells began ringing at 10am the next morning. The wedding was at 12 noon. Before the wedding the members taking part in the ceremony was part of a parade through the town.

Regular and unimportant guests arrived at the chapel first. The chapel was huge and brightly lit. After the unimportant guests came Lurg and his best person, Condi. Then came the minister, the minister was Skully One Eye. Skully had become an Ordained Minister many years before. Following the minister came royal family members. Then the Elders came and sat in the front row of the pirate side (the church was split into 2, one side being the royals side and the pirates on the other side). Next to be seated were Audra’s sisters the princesses. Their mother, the Queen, followed them. Everyone bowed as she walked down the aisle to the front row where she sat with her daughters. Barron Von Black, his crew, along with Skully’s crew was seated behind the Elders, with other random pirates seated behind them.
Following the Queen came the Brides’ Maids and the Maid of Honor. Hackin Eve Bones’ was the first Bridesmaid, she was followed by Finale the Periwinkle, next came Deidre Vasquez. And the last Brides Maid to come was Madison. She was in a large glass tank on top of an elegant carriage being pulled down the aisle by the Queens men. The maid of honor followed Madison. Bella Dizzy the Bitter was the Maid of Horror… I mean Honor. Next to walk down the aisle was the ring boy. Maximo was the ring boy. He hopped down the aisle with the 2 rings dangling from his antlers. And of course following the ring boy was the flower girl. Ursula came skipping down the aisle as the flower girl throwing flower pedals. The orchestra then qued the Brides music. Audra came walking down the aisle accompanied by Vasca de Game, who would be giving her away.

Audra got to the alter and Skully began the ceremony.
“Today we are gathered her to celebrate a love between two people; two people whose love has produced a gathering of two very different classes of people, a great love that can be heard into the wee hours of the morning screaming out juicy sounds of passion. Indeed this is a special day.”
“AAAAACCCHHHHOOOOOOO” suddenly screamed Cannons McGee, whose sneeze sounds like a monkey in a rainforest. Everyone thunderously laughed.
“Bitch you be trippin if you try to do that again take away the spot light from Audra and Lurg and ruin this wedding” Said Bella Dizzy to Cannons McGee.
“Whatever Bella, Ill just talk about you behind your back, and tell lies about you and your sister to your mother, Liza Dregg, who owns a whore house, how ironic considering her daughter is a whore” replied Cannons.
“ENOUGH” cried the Queen, “don’t you ladies have any class”.
“Um ok continuing. These two beautiful people (Skully winks at Lurg) had to over come a lot to be together. There was first the love/hate relationship, followed by Audras untimely death, along with Lurg sleeping with Bella Dizzy. So many obstacles for these two, but against all odds they have prevailed, take a look at them now, happy and getting married.”
“Let me begin- before we go any further is there anyone who thinks that these two should not be married?”
Everyone in the church looked at Condi, then at the Queen, then at Bella Dizzy, and finally everyone looked at Barron Von Black because he started to violently cough randomly, Ursula passed him some rum to clear his throat. No one came forward.
“Now do you Lurg the Fist take the Princess Isabella Audra Bellamy Constantinople to be your lawfully wedded wife, and do you promise to love, honor and respect her, and comfort her, and keep her in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her for so long as you both shall live? God forbid she dies again,” Skully asked to Lurg.
“I do,” said Lurg.
“Ok good” said Skully.
“And do you Princess Isabella Audra Bellamy Constantinople, take this man, Lurg the Fist, to be your lawfully wedded husband, and do you promise to love, honor and respect him, and comfort him, and keep him in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him for so long as you both shall live?
I do. Said Audra, wiping away a tear.
“Audra you may now kiss the Bride… opps I mean Lurg you may now kiss the groom…. Err umm how about you just kiss!”.
Lurg lifted Audra you to his face and they kissed.
Everyone cheered. The wedding bells once again began to toll, as everyone stood clapping. Skully looked over to the Queen, who was brought to tears, you could tell by the look on her face that she was proud of Audra, Skully then glanced over to where Barron Von Black was sitting Barron was overwhelmed with tears. It was certainly a touching day.





Shots suddenly rang out in the church; the doors busted open and about 30-40 men came storming inside. The royal guards tried to stop them, but the trustpassengers were too much. There were a few recognizable faces among the group. It was the BlueBeard family. A Mafia-crime-pirate family that was all and all evil. Skully’s archenemies Daris was there; his grandfather Clegg (who was the patricharch of the family) was also a big enemy of the Elders. Bully Hayes was Daris’s father; he was the criminal who conned the Queen into thinking he was a noble man, and she married him, Bully Hayes was also a big enemy of Vasca’s. Also in the crime family was Burt Bloodgut, Audra’s ex fiancĂ©e from when she was a princess. Medusa unbenounced to anyone else before turns out to be apart of the family as well. Grey Blome, the former 1st mate of Captain Hook was a BlueBeard also he was Bully Hayes’ brother, and Burt’s father. And in the crime family were the 2 Ackers, formally from Tora Bora Bora, formally of the Deadly Seven. The rest of the men were the 30 Mexicans that Skully hired to be the crew on his ship.

Clegg slowly made his way to the front of the church.
“Oh what a joyous day, apparently someone forgot to invite my family. Its ok we came anyways”.
“Why are you here Clegg?” asked the Queen. “You already had your son Bully trick me into marriage, stole great amounts of my fortune, and publicly humiliated me…. Isn’t that enough?”.
Clegg proceeded to talk, “there are many many people in this room that has gotten in the way of my families happiness”.
Skully spoke up… “Your awful family is ruining many lives, Daris’ stole my bride away from me!”.
Did he? Asked Clegg. “Or did she just leave you to be with him instead? Is there anything keeping you with Daris?” Asked Clegg to Maeghan Belle.
“No, we are in love”. Skully was hurt, he trusted this woman, even though it was many years before.
“We are here because my family is fast on our way to controlling the world. From Royalty to Pirates, to mermaids, and every other creature, will be under the control of my family. I will take away something from every royal house… every country in the world, therefore making them come under my control or else that “something” I took would be gone forever”. —Clegg. Thunderstruck outside as Clegg spoke. Ironically the sunny warm day has turned dark, cold and rainy.
“Not my precious Audra! She can’t be taken away from me again,” cried the Queen.
“Join me, my family, or forever live in fear, fear that my family will destroy you for your resistance. What do you say will you join me?” Ask Clegg. He looked to the Queen, Skully, Barron and The Elders, they all said NO. Clegg was furious. But as if they were reading each other minds Barron and Skully ran over to Daris and held swords to his throat.
No, no, said Clegg who pointed over to the Captainess Kittie whom had a gun held to her head by Bully Hayes. Skully and Barron retracted.


Suddenly smoke filled the church and nothing could be seen, only screams and rustling could be heard. Once the smoke settled Skully realized that the Bluebeards were gone… and with them were many of the guests of the wedding… kidnapped! Audra and the Queen screamed at the same time.
“Lurg is gone” Cried Audra.
“My daughters are gone!” screamed the Queen. Skully looked at Audra and said, “Honestly I totally thought that you would be the kidnapped one mate”. Among those who were taken by the family were:
Lurg
Sid Cutler
Captainess Kittie and baby
Venom Kisser
Liza Dregg
Vasca de Gama
Chester
Hackin Eve
The two royal princesses
Ursula
Condi
And Razorwind, Knifebance, Cat Eyes, and Blood Claw from Barrons ship.


Later that day the Queen held a meeting with Skully, Barron, and Elmer and Tobias (of the Elders). They discussed what they could do to save those whom were taken captive. They decided that the pirates along with the Spanish Armada would go after the Bluebeard family. It was decided at this meeting that Barron and Skully would co-captain a ship and the two Elders would accompany them as advisors. The Queen gave the 2 captains a brand new top of the line ship, a man of war, that they called the Black Betty. The Queen was willing to do anything to save her daughters. The Black Betty along with the Spanish Armada under the command of Skully and Barron set out the next morning.

Chapter 19

Shortly after Lurg and Audra left for Spain, Ursula was preparing to leave as well. She was planning on traveling to South America to find out the secret ingredients and food of the people from Macho Picho. Vasca de Gama and Chester was going to travel with Ursula because Macho Picho was one of the only places in the new world that he has yet to go to. Now only Skully and Condi were left on the ship. Skully hired a bunch of Mexicans-for-hire to be the crew on the ship.

A few weeks’ later things were very completely different on the ship. Skully and Condi were getting sick of having Mexican food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner everyday. Skully found that there were both positives and negatives for hiring the Mexicans. The positives were that he was able to hire twice as many crews for half the pay of his original crew. He was also able to hire crew to build a tank for Madison. But Skully was also thinking about the negatives of hiring Mexicans. Who are the only people dirtier than pirates? Skully thought to himself. MEXICANS!!! Skully and Condi held out hope that the real crew would return. But many weeks passed and Skully heard nothing from any of his crew.

Almost four months passed without the original crew on the ship when finally a ship pulled up to the Judith Prosperous. They were from the Spanish Queen and they were sailing the sea inviting everyone on the guest list to come to Spain and celebrate. Celebrate what? The wedding of Audra and Lurg of course.

Skully and Condi were so excited. They needed to see their mates again; it’s been along four months without them.

Skully, Condi and the Mexicans set out for Spain.

Chapter 18

Chapter 18

The day started off the same as any other day, it was bright sunny and warm. Lurg was screaming orders to the crew. The crew with whom was now missing Bella Dizzy, Hackin Eve Bones, Maximo, and Finale.

Skully was fishing with ham sandwiches for mermaids again as he often does, but this time he was fishing because the day before he thought he saw a mermaid swim by the ship and again he had the fishing rod in one hand and a cocktail in another. An hour passed when Skully felt a pull on the line. He started yelping as he reeled in the line. It took quite a while till he got the small mermaid out of the water. The mermaid was dangling from the line with a ham sandwich in her mouth. Skully pulled her in and dropped her onto the deck. She was flapping around the deck like fish outta water. She had a bluish/green fish bottom, seashell bikini bra, pale white skin on her upper body, and green and black hair covering her face. The green in her hair was actually seaweed.

The crew gathered around to see the mermaid; they were all amazed that Skully caught one. The mermaid cleared away the hair from her face. Everyone on the ship gasped, for the mermaid was Audra Bellamy!!!! Audra said hello to everyone. The crew then battered her with many questions like, how are you alive? And why are you a mermaid? Audra sat up and began to tell the story of her “death”. She went back to went she met Deidre Vasquez. She explained how she finally got Lurg to fall in love with her; and about the time they made sweet love that one night before she died. Audra then went on to explain how Condi came up to her that nite and struck her with the knife killing her. Lurg whipped out a sword and held it to Condi’s throat. “Ill kill you!” decried Lurg. “Wait!! Stop!!” Cried Audra. “You don’t understand. Condi wasn’t right when she killed me. Deidre and I messed up a potion that we were practicing the night I was killed. The potion was to make Deidre immortal. But something went wrong and it turned Deidre evil. The evil Deidre then destroyed and broke Condi’s heart and tricked Condi with mind games into killing me. It wasn’t until Deidre hit the water from walking the plank that the effects of the potion wore off. Once you guys made Deidre walk the plank and the evil potion wore off, she was found by a mermaid who had found my body the day before and Deidre was able to bring me back to life. But once I awoke again the ship was gone so as a token to the mermaid who saved my body from sharks or other things I had Deidre turn me into a mermaid, and I joined the mermaid in her travels. Months later when the Judith Prosperous finally returned to these seas, I was really enjoying being a mermaid and I committed to staying with the mermaid who saved me, her name was Madison Oceanus, made it so I couldn’t come back to you all right away. We as mermaids followed the Judith Prosperous when it was in the Caribbean because we knew that after every mealtime Ursula would dump all the leftover food into the sea. Oh how I longed to come back to you all… especially you Lurg—I love you”.

As Audra talked her fish bottom turned back into human legs and she had sat there with her bottom blowing in the wind. It wasn’t until Vasca told her that she was not only had human legs again but she was also naked. Audra covered herself up and explained that when in water or wet her low half turns into the fish, but when dry she turns back into a human with legs. Lurg and Audra hugged and embraced each other as Skully said “ well I finally caught a mermaid, but I can’t have sex with her… I mean I did have sex with her but she was all human then”. Lurg glared at him. “Her favorite position is flying doggy… I mean it was her favorite position, Im not too sure she would still be able to do it with a fish tail now, kinda need 2 legs to go over each shoulder…. Uh-oh… Umm…” Skully went on babbling getting himself in more trouble.

“Audra” the cry came from the water. The crew ran to the side of the ship, just as the most beautiful mermaid vanished under the water, it was Madison Oceanus, Audras pal and savior. Audra explained that mermaids are very scared and shy of humans. Because over the years mermaids have gotten a bad reputation of singing to ships and either luring them to crash into reefs or rocks or by making men fall over board. And Audra told Skully that in fact it was true mermaids love ham sandwiches.

Skully told Audra that they knew she was a princess and that they met her mother the Queen. Audra became pale. Skully told her not to worry, the Queen was very accepting of the pirates and always welcomed their presence in her palace. The Queen was just glad that you got to live out your dream and be happy.

Loud screams suddenly came from the sea. Everyone looked over it was Madison Oceanus. She was being attacked by a swarm of string rays. Audra jumped over board and immediately turned back into a mermaid once she hit the water. Lurg jumped in after her. He didn’t want to lose his long-lost-love-who was now back-but could be potential gone again if the stingrays got to her. Vasca and Chester threw a fishing net overboard onto the stingrays, trapping them and saving Madison, Audra and Lurg. The 3 of them were pulled on board. Audra dried off, and her legs eventually came back. Madison was set into a large bathing tub. Audra poor goats’ milk onto Madison’s stings. Madison seemed nervous to be around the pirates, but Audra assured her that she was safe. Madison told the pirates about her life as a mermaid and how she became exiled from her mermaid family because she had an affair with a dangerous pirate who set her set, stole from her family and tried to kill her and her family. The evil pirates name was Daris BlueBeard. Skully told her that they too knew of Daris, and didn’t like him at all either. The mermaids had a strict rule about their interactions with humans. And Madison was then banished by her family. She lived for a few years being friends with only the sea animals. She then explained how she found Audras body, and saved it from being eaten by fish or sharks. And then the next night she saved Deidre form drowning. Deidre brought Audra back to life and she lived with Madison as her first human/mermaid friend in years.

Skully invited Madison to join them on the ship, for they would make arrangements to have a large tank built for her. Madison after a few moments of thinking accepted. But until the tank was built Madison returned to the sea. You see Madison was a real mermaid and must be in a lot of water to survive, but Audra on the other hand was a mermaid when only wet.

Audra told Skully that Deidre was living on an island near Brazil and that she is very sorry that she made the wrong potion and went nutty. Audra then admitted that it was her fault. Deidre asked Audra to get white shrimp for the potion but instead she got grey ship and that little error turned out to be fatal.

That night the crew had a large dinner together. And of course the food served that night was stingray! And they then retired to bed.

The next morning Audra and Lurg set out off to Spain to see her mother the Queen. The Judith Prosperous was slowly losing its crew.

Chapter 17

Skully One Eye though that things would improve on the ship without Bella Dizzy or Venom Kisser, but they weren’t any better, in fact they were getting worse.

Radley Cutler was still on the ship writing about his time on the ship. His presence really didn’t seem to have any effect on anyone on the ship.

When docking at a nearby port Skully One-Eye got word from Spain that the Queen has found out that her husband was a criminal stealing money from her. She sentenced him to death, he was not the father of Audra Bellamy or her sisters (her father died from a heart attack a few years before), but instead he was Queen Sophia’s second husband.

Skully began to think that it was a little weird that the crew never got to meet him when they were visiting the Queen. Vacsa then mentioned to Skully that he in fact once knew of the king. His real name was Bully Hayes Bluebeard. He was a major enemy of Vasca and many other pirates. Bully Hayes family was involved with the Opium trade, they were evil pirates whom no one trusted. They planned to mask enough money through their Opium trading and stealing to gain enough power to control the seas, making pirates into slaves, and eventually becoming stronger than all the royal families in the world. Bully Hayes was Darius’s father. The BlueBeard “family” was controlled by the grandfather Clegg Bluebeard. It wasn’t know how big their venture had gotten, or who else was involved with them. Skully wasn’t very surprised to hear that Vasca knew Bully Hayes, because Vasca knew everyone from sometime in his life.

Skully was gazing into the water when he thought he saw a mermaid swimming by. It just must have been a dolphin or his mind playing tricks on him.

Finale was getting increasingly more frustrated with seeing Maximo and Hackin Eve. Coupled with the fact that she missed Jolly Roger. Finally Finale snapped she couldn’t take it anymore. Finale run over to Maximo picked him up and dropkicked him off the ship. He went flying into the water screaming “eeeeeeeee”. Hackin Eve screamed as Maximo landed in the water. Maximo wasn’t a great swimmer and would die in the shark-infested waters. Hackin Eve jumped into the water risking her life. Eve saved Maximo and climbed on board the ship. Hackin Eve walked up to Finale soaking wet and slapped her across the face. Ursula whispered to Skully One-Eye “I got 10 down on Finale”, Skully put 10 on Hackin Eve. The fight raged on with screaming, slapping, and hair pulling. Finally Lurg walked over and ripped the two apart from each other, throwing them to either side of the ship. No winner was declared.

As day became night the crew went to bed.

The next morning Hackin Eve and Maximo decided to leave the ship and visit with Maximo’s family on Tora Bora Bora. Finale also decided to leave the ship that day too, she hopped on to the back of a manatee and set out to find Jolly Roger.

Chapter 16

Martha’s Vineyard is beautiful in May, as the Judith Prosperous sailed closer to the island. Skully always liked the northeast colonies and thought that this place would be the perfect spot to bury their treasure. But unlike Skully not everyone on the ship was happy.

Finale was sad that she had to leave her new boyfriend Jolly Roger and to make matters even worse for poor Finale, her best friend Hackin Eve was giving her almost no attention for Hackin Eve had a new best friend in Maximo.

Things were getting very tough on the ship and having the newly reunited twins on the ship didn’t help much either. One of the ladies was just enough to handle… but 2! TWO of them were TOO much.

Skully One-Eye, Lurg and Condi found the perfect spot on the island to bury their treasure. It was roughly 1 mile from the ocean and behind a hill under a grand oak tree. Hackin Eve drew out a map as the crew dug the hole. Once the treasure was buried they boarded the ship once again and headed south to Chesapeake. Four days later the Judith Prosperous arrived in Chesapeake. The whole crew went with Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser as they walked down Main Street towards Liza Dreggs Inn.

The Pirates found the Inn. It was a big white Victorian home. The crew walked inside the Inn and up to the front desk. But as they quickly realized this was no regular Inn. It was in fact a brothel. Bella Dizzy asked the lady at the front desk if they could please speak to Liza Dregg. A few minutes later Liza Dregg walked down the stairs, she saw Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser and she immediately knew… and the 3 of them started crying. Soon Finale, Hackin Eve, Ursula, and Maximo realized that they were the only ones still standing in the room watching for the rest of the crew—all the males and Condi were taking complete advantage of the Brothels services… (If you know what I mean).

Later that night as the crew regrouped Skully One Eye thought it was best if Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser stayed with their Mother for a little while. The Judith Prosperous left Chesapeake Bay that night without Bella Dizzy or her sister.

Chapter 15

The two ships’ crews spent the next 3 days drinking, telling stories, and gambling. Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser started to wonder that in fact they could be twin sisters. They set out on a small rowboat to seek the Elders and see if they knew anything about them.

Back on the Skull Galleon it was revealed to Skully One-Eye that in fact the pirate Queen did have a baby. The baby was now 3months old. Skully left one year ago so technically the baby could be his. But Barron reassured Skully that the baby was his.

Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser reached the Elders house. They sat with the Elders and the Elders told them about their mother Liza Dregg who was from the Fareast and their father who was a British pirate. Sid Cutler told them about Liza Dregg’s and Medusa history and the history of the girls lives. Sid also mentioned that Liza Dregg was still alive. She was now living in the colonies, and owned an Inn in Chesapeake Bay.

Bella Dizzy and Venom Kisser were so happy to learn that they were sisters and that their birth mother was still alive. Now they could do sisterly things together like bitch slap each other or steal each other boyfriends.

Once Venom and Bella got back to the ship Skully and Barron decided that after days of partying, that it was time to part. Skully was going north to the colonies. He told his crew that he wanted to bury their treasure on an island off the coast of the Massachusetts Bay Colony called Martha’s Vineyard. And on their way back to the Caribbean they would stop in the Chesapeake Bay so Bella Dizzy can visit her mother. Barron Von Black allowed Venom Kisser to go with them and the two ships departed and went their own ways. Agreeing to meet up in a month so Venom Kisser can return to her own ship.
