Indy's pirate ship of... pirates...and Muppets! 1

[Indy]

Jim eyed Gonzo and Rizzo working diligently at the bar, then to Indy, Jack and Faith talking in the corner of the tavern. He turned to Samantha as she walked out. Fozzie was walking about and had ventured outside to look for poteintal shipmates.

"We'll get you a hat to cover your face in a bit. You can still tell you've been crying. Thought of a new name? A back story would do as well."

[zilla]

"I have. My name is Halley Norton. I lived in England until i was 8, and then came here when my family died. I am all alone, and I'm just looking for a place to stay."

Jim eyed Samantha.

"Is that good enough?" Samantha looked hopefully.

[Indy]

"Um... change you're voice a little. You sound too proper."

"Al right... IS this bet'ah?" She said in a heavy Cockney accent.

Jim smiled. "Much. Now let's see if Indy buys it. My anme's Jim, y the way. The bear is Fozzie." He lead her to Indy's table.

"Found some one already, Jim?" Indy said sipping her rum, eyeing the new person suspisiously.

"Yes, ma'am. This is Halley... Um..." Drat, Jim thought, I've forgotten her new name already!

[zilla]

"Nort'n" Samantha said, half not believeing she was doing this.

"Right. Halley Norton." Jim said.

"Where do you come from Halley?" Indy said still eying her. "I've never seen you 'round here before."

"I lived in England until i was 8, and then came here when my family died. I am all alone, and I'm just looking for a place to stay" Samantha repeated hoping that Indy buys it.

[Indy]

"And you want to stay on my ship?" Indy asked. Jack and Faith eyed the girl as well.

"Yes."Samantha nodded.

"Alright.. Tell me why I should let you come aboard." Indy shifted in her chair, sipping on her rum again.


"Oh! Oh Hey you!" Fozzie ran up to the man walking down the street. HE turned. "I don't suppose you'd like to join a pirate ship, would you sir? I bet you lost that leg at sea, so I can only assume you're farmilar with ships."

"Aye, that I am, Mr. Bear." The man said, smiling.

"Fozzie Bear, please."

"Well, Fozzie, you've happened to come across one of the best chefs on the sea. Long John Silver is me name." The one legged man stuck out his hand and Fozzie shook it. "So which one of these fine ships is yours?"

"Mine? Oh, no. Capitan Indy Sparrow owns the ship we'l be on. The Dark Diamond..." Fozzie said and pointed to the ship with blood red sails.

[zilla]

"Why?" Samantha asked. She couldn't of anything.
"Because..because I can pull my weight. I can cook too."

Indy still eyed her. Samantha could feel the gazes of everyone on her. She hated it. It was like she was some sort of an animal on exhibit in the zoo.

[preciousring]

"she looks really familiar," Faith whispered to Jack.

"Aye, she does," Jack replied.

Jack gently pulled some of Faith's hair out of her eyes and placed it behind her ears. Faith smiled at Jack. He stood up.

"Gotta get me more rum!" Jack said excitedly.

"Great," Faith mumbled, "I'm going to be stuck for a day on my honeymoon with a drunk husband."

Indy laughed and turned back to the girl, "What weight can ya pull girl?"

Faith stood up and started to look the girl over, "She don't look to strong Indy. Though..bet'er then that other girl ya had."

[zilla]

Samantha wanted to take the damn disguise off but she couldn't she had dug herself in too deep to give up now.

"I may look small aye, but I bet I'm a harder worker than 'e is." She motions to Jack.

[preciousring]

Faith stopped circling the girl, "what was that missy?"

"I said I'm more of a 'ard worker then 'e is," Samantha repeated.

"I doubt that," Faith said, her hands resting on her hips, her eyes throwing daggers at the young girl, "You won't insult him, that's Indy's brother, my husband, you won't get along with any of us very well if you keep talkin' like that!"

[zilla]

"fine mess you got yourself in now Sam!" she thought to herself.

"I never said I was better than him, just a better worker. Ment nothin' by it ya know?"

Jim looked over at Sam and noticed that her hair was falling out of the ribbon and thought
"oh god, she's doomed."

[Indy]

"Fine then. Jim, you seem like a good enough lad. Teach this girl some manners so I won't have you, you understand me?" Indy said and got up from the table walking to the bar. Fozzie walked back in with Long John Silver.

"Thereshe is!" Fozzie pointedto Indy and waved. "Capitan! I've found us a cook!"

"That's the capitan?" John asked dumbfoundedly.

"Yes, sir!"

"A cook, Fozzie?" Indy smiled and glanced to Faith, Jim and Samantha.

"Yes, ma'am. I garentee you won't find a better one on any other ship." John smiled and took Indy's hand, kissing it. She smiled. "Long John Silver's my name, and I'd be proud to serve under such a beautifulwoman as yourself, Capitan Sparrow."

"Well, if you cook as well as you flatter people, then you're hired Mr. Silver."

"Oh, Long John--or just John, please, miss." He stood up straighter on his crutch.

"Fozzie, please show John the galley won't you?"

"Aye aye, ma'am!" Fozzie nodded and escorted John out of the tavern.


"Gonzo... Do you think that was.. ya know, who Mr. Bones was talking about? The one legged man?" Rizzo asked, pushing a plate on the bar.

"I don't know.. He seems alright so far..." Gonzo said. "We'll ask Mr. Bones about it, then tell Indy about him okay?"

"Alright... Say, where is Mr. Bones anyway?"

[zilla]

Samantha felt please with herself and sat down.
Jim sat next to her. "Now, you can never ever say that about a captains brother, or sister or whatever, you hear me? or they will see if you really are better."

Samantha nodded.
"You don't have to teach me manners do you? I know manners very well thank you."

Jim shurgged "I'll just make it look like I am."

Samantha nodded. "Can I left my hair down now Jim?"

[Annael]

-no piggy lass! i get the top bunk aye? you canna reach up there!

piggy - *mumbles*

*leaves and runs into jim*

-oh! *blushes* 'ello sir. are you a goin to be joinin our fine crew here?

jim - um yes in fact. very interesting accent, where are you from

-i'm from ireland, for sure. we left when i was a wee brabin, but me ma and pa were fine irish folk at that. escuse me though, i must be a-findin cap'n indy. it seems we're in a bit of trouble



(((and was that other scrawny girl, moi? i cant help it if she's beautiful )))

[zilla]

Samantha saw the irish girl and looked down. She wondered why she had come all the way from the lovely Ireland.


"What kind of trouble are we in?" Jim asked concerend

[preciousring]

Faith followed Indy to the bar and sat down next to her, watching Jack who was getting himself drunk.

"I don like her Indy, she seems so familir, but I can' place 'er," Faith said, looking over at Jim and the girl.

"Aye," Indy said.

"We gotta keep a close eye on tha' one," said Faith, turning back to face Indy.

"We do," Indy replied.

Jack walked over and threw his arm around Faith and Indy's shoulders.

"'Ello Ladies!" Jack slurred.

"He's drunk," Indy said.

"Yep," Faith said, "Be right back."

Indy nodded and Faith stood up, "C'mon Jack."

"where're we goin'?" Jack asked.

"Just follow me," Faith said.

She took Jack's hand and lead him to the black pearl. She went below deck and had Jack sit down on the bed. She gave him some more rum. Jack grinned and took the rum from Faith and drained it, soon collapsing on the bed.

"That'll do for awhile," Faith said smiling. She walked back up to the deck and back into the tavern.

"What did you do?" Indy asked.

"Gave 'im enough rum till he passed out," Faith replied.

[Annael]

-oh missa jim sire, dontcha see? a storms a brewin an we dont nearly have enough crew yet. lass?

sam - yes?

-do ya know where cap'n indy be?

sam - in the tavern

-aye, thank you. i must be a-tellin her. we canna out run this storm fer sure

[Indy]

Cat walked into the tavern and Indy waved her over. "How's everything? New girl ain't causin' you trouble, is she?"

"Oh, no, miss. But there's a storm comin'. A suppose we could out run it if we leave now."

Indy gave her a look, "Well, we could just stay here the night and wait till it passes over.I'm not in any real hurry." Indy shrugged and glanced to Faith.

Fozzie and Long John returned to the bar a few moments later. "Storm'sa brewin', Cap'n Sparrow." John said as he entered behind Fozzie.

Indy smiled, "Yes, we've been informed. Is the galley to your satsifaction?"

"Very much, Cap'n, very much." He smiled and nodded.

[preciousring]

"It would be best if we all stayed here 'til the storm blows over," Faith said.

"Where's Jackie?" Miss. Piggy asked.

"Knocked out from to much rum," Faith said, "I bet'er go and check on 'im."

Faith stood up and walked out of the tavern. She walked to the Pearl and below deck to her and Jack's room. She walked in and Jack was still asleep. She sat down next to him and rubbed his arm.

"Jack, Jack, wake up," Faith whispered.

Jack groaned, "No love...major headache.."

Faith laughed quietly and kissed him, "Well that's what you get for getting drunk! Now c'mon, there's a storm brewin' and we need to stay at the inn for the night."

Jack sat up slowly, blinking out the dying sunlight. He stood up and swayed a bit, but with Faith's help, they made it back to the Tavern and sat down next to Indy.

"Me and Jack decided to stay at the inn a little ways down the road," Faith said.

[Indy]

"Alright then," Indy nodded then snapped her fingers waving Gonzo and Rizzo over. "Boys, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here another night. There's a storm coming up and we'l just have to wait it out."

"What about our stuff?" Rizzo asked.

"It's safe on the ship, don't worry. Jim!" Jim and Samantha walked in and immedeatly ran to Indy's side.

"Yes, capitan?"

"I'm sure Cat has already told you about the storm. 'Fraid you'll have to spend another night here. Halley, you'll be spendin' the night at the inn down the street with Faith, Jack, Cat and I. Fozzie, John, since you live around here, I'm sure you have your own accomidations." Indy said turning to them.

"Yes, Ma'am." Fozzie and John said at the same time.

[zilla]

Samantha's heart sank. She would be figured out for sure tonight.
"Aye ma'am." she said sadly.
