For a crazy adventure you need crazy heros.

Discord was shocked. He was actually enjoying having tea with Tia, Luna, Twilight, Candence and the rest of Twilight's friends, and they even let Spike join in. Then the goat skeleton appeared, turning Spike, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie to stone. Then kidnapped the Alicorns... leaving him alone. "That was rude, he could have at least blasted me with magic! But no I was ignored, just for that I would stop him, but he turned Fluttershy my best friend to stone! I will so make him pay!" Said Discord vowing revenge. He was about to snap his fingers win something stoped him. "Oh right cosmic laws ban me from taking direct heroic action... fue. I know I will find some insanely brave crazy and over the top heroes to do it for me! But they will need ponies to guide them in this world....hmmm who should that be. I got it!" He snapped his fingers dropping Vinyl Scratch and Trixie Lulamoon in to Luna and Celestia's seats respectively.

"Who teleports the Great and Powerful Trixie!" Trixie was dripping with soap and water.

"Uncool dude, I was practicing for my..... is that Pinkie?" Vinyl started to complain but stopped, seeing her biggest customer a stone statue with her face buried in a cake.

"Yes to the second question, I am Discrod, Spirit of Chaos. We were all having a nice tea party, Luna even laughed at one of my jokes. Should have known that was a bad sign. But some undead goat rose from the ground foalnapped the Alicorns and turned everypony and dragon to stone but ignored me. I was so shocked I didn't think to act until he was gone so I'm going to use my powers to bring forth heros to stop him and save the Alicorns and free our friends here. But they will need help to understand and find their way in our world, so I picked you two to guild them." Explained Discord.

"O-k...." Said Vinyl.

"Of course with The Elements down you turn to The Great and Powerful Trixie to guide these heros you will conjure to their goal!" Said Trixie her ego soaking up the fact she gets to save Equestria.

"Great. Now stand back!" Said Discord as he struck several random silly poses before snapping his paw, claw and tail all at once then there was a large, bright flash of light and blue smoke that smelled like mustard.

======================================

Nathan was in a bad mood. He lost the Pandora and his crew scattered again.. though this time he did not lose it from gambling. No, that he could deal with, but this time while he and his crew where drinking and celebrating with the Decarlow brothers after a joint heist went off perfectly. Some jerk had called the cops cause they celebrated too loud and woke them up. With every one drunk or buzzed they just scattered. Now, Nathan was nursing a hangover while flying his devastator over Chicago in the middle of a storm. "Damn it, where'd those cops tow it. Maybe Kon could tell me." He grumbled to him self as he passed a tower still being rebuilt after the Dispina attack two years ago. All of a sudden the wind picked up and several bolts of lighting struck his plane. The last thing he saw before he blacked out was the world spinning as his plane was sucked in to the sky.

===============================

Jack was not happy. Why was Jack unhappy? Several reasons. One, the Black Pearl was still in a bottle, two, he was out of rum, and three, he was again cast adrift in a row boat... and did I mention the sharks. "Well it can't get much worse." Said Jack as he rowed. Then he saw a bolt of lighting strike the water before a water spout formed and started to move towards him. "Why did I have to say that?" He asked him self as the sudden water devil over took him.

====================================

Don Karnage the scourge of the sky was moping. His latest plan was again foiled by Baloo. He sat in his CT-37 tri-wing sea plane the prop caked in bubble gum it's engine blown and smoking. He was tired of the fat pilot foiling his plans... "Every time we cross paths he ruins every thing! I wish just one of my pilots were half as resourceful as him..." he vented. He then blinked and snapped his fingers. "Why didn't I think of that sooner. He is a skilled pilot and has a fast, strong sea plane. Maybe if I offer him a good signing bounce, and slightly bigger cut then the others I could hire him as a flight leader. We always worked well together when we are forced to... another option would be to go straight... Or maybe I should find new hunting grounds." As he was weighing his options he didn't notice the whirlpool form in front of him as he drifted waiting for pick up. When he did finally see it he just sighs. "This would be my luck, Yes, No?" He asked to sky right before he was sucked down.

==============================

"Luffy!" Shouted the crew of the Sunny Lion as thier Captian fell into the water. They had no chance to mount a rescue as the marine ship rammed them again, this time with troops jumping on board.

Luffy was sinking with a smile on his face. He found it, he had claimed the one piece and now had the title King of the pirates now the navy had caught up and he could do nothing in the sea. "At least I die as king of the pirates. Sorry." he thought as he started to black out. But just before everything went dark he saw a light.

===============================

The sea was angry that day, and Kenway never seen waves climb that high. He was fighting a man-o-war when the storm blew in right after they boarded her, the waves where so high now that they dwarfed the man-o-war then some one cried out. "Rogue wave at starboard!" everyone turned to see a wall of water rushing towards them.

He started to run for the helm. "Turn the ships!",he shouted but it was to late the wave hit the man-o-war dead on broadside. Snapping the ship in two and breaking the boarding lines, which saved the Jackdaw. But hundreds of men were dragged to their graves, and Edward Kenway had seemed to be one of them.

==============================

As the smoke cleared two strange machines,each having one occupant and three soaking wet humans lieing on the ground appeared. The fourth began coughing up water as the fifth moaned. The first to speak was the one in the white machine with black checker accents and a rose trim." Did anyone get the license plate number of that truck?" he said to noone in paticular.

The red wolf creature in the other machine coughed and answered, "I will let you know when, world stops spinning. Yes, No?" Before he tumbled out of his plane and fell to his rear.

The human in a straw hat, red vest,and blue shorts coughed and said, "Thank you for pulling me out of the water, I thought I had died. Say, anyone have some food?"

The one in all black was the first to look aroud after clearing his lungs "Bolaxe." he said, after seeing two unicorns and some sort of serpent. "Given I haven't had a drop of rum in three days, and I can't see Will Turner I must insist, that before whatever insanity is about to occur, that I be provided with at least three bottles of rum. I refuse to deal with this sober, if there is to be unicorns involved!"said Captain Sparrow.

Don Karnage looked at the scene around. He never seen people like the three on the ground or the one in what he had to admit was a vary nice pusher prop bi-plane. But upon seeing the unicorns and floating snake thing that was now laughing, he decided he is with the one in black. "The Great Don Karnage the Scurvy of the skies, agrees with the one dressed in black. He too will need some strong alcoholic beverages to deal with Unicorns and flying snake thing. Also some food sounds good as well."

Luffy sits up and looks at Trixie and Vinyl and gets starry eyed. "Oh this is so cool, real Unicorns!" He said before jumping to his feet and running at them causing both to yelp and run, allowing him to give chase around the room.

Nathan sat in his plane starring in shock at the seen. As Kenway stood up his back to the sights the others saw by pure chance, he pulled his hood down as he turned and started to speak. "You lads sound like you need to cut back on the rum if... you're...... seeing....." when he turned around his sentence died in his throat at what he was seeing.

Discord smiled wider at his summoned heros. Five was a nice of number, and they all seemed to be pirates witch practically screamed chaos. They would be perfect. "Gentlemen!" Said Discord drawing the attention to him before with a snap of his fingers and all of them where seated at a second table that appeared out of nowhere loaded with sweets and a glass of chocolate milk for each person. "Welcome to Equestria. The Canterlot Castle to be precise. You see we have a small problem." He gestures to the statues around a table. "A undead goat broke in during tea. Turned several of my friends here to stone and kidnapped four princesses. But just ignored me like I didn't matter." He put his paw to his chest and swooned from the percieved insult.

The ponies having heard this already sipped the chocolate milk. Luffy stuffed his face with cakes and cookies as he listened. Don Karnage had shown proper ettiquite and taken only a few cookies and set them on his plate and after a sip of his drink took to dunking them in it before eating them. Kenway showed similar manners but didn't dunk his cookies. Nathan helped him self to cake slice as he chose to listen and watch the craziest story he will ever have to tell unfold. But Jack after downing his glass in one go only to see it refill and to be disappointed it was not any kind of rum spoke. "Now while that's all very sad to hear, mate, I neither know who you are nor do I care about your problems. Especially given my ship is currently cursed and stuck in a bottle with a undead monkey running around on deck mucking about as it pleases and I have no rum. So who the hell are you, and why should I care?"

"Oh silly me! I forgot to introduce my self and my companions. I'm Discord, Spirit of Chaos the unicorn to my left is Trixie Lulamoon the most power unicorn mage in Equestria at this time, and the one on my right is technical and musical genius Vinyl Scratch." The two mares nervously wave. "And who do we have the honour of being with?" Asked Discord.

Jack smiled. "Why, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow mate, surely you've all heard of me." Said Jack.

"I'm Captain Edward Kenway and no, I haven't." Said Kenway almost smiling when he saw Jack frown.

"I am the Great Captain Don Karnage, the scurvy of the skies, the leader of a thousand pirates, Captain of dreaded Iron Volture, and the most feared pilot from Cape Suzet, to Vembrira!" He said with dramatic flair and pointing to the sky.

"Wow you guys sound really cool and you're a talking wolf guy that's awesome... Oh yeah I guess it's my turn. I'm Monkey D. Luffy I'm king of the pirates!" shouted Luffy.

Nathan watched along with every one else in mix of shock, awe and disgust as Luffy put a whole cake in his mouth. He then shook his head and spoke. "I'm Nathan Zachary, leader of the air pirate crew known as the Fortune Hunters."

"Pleasure to meet you all. Now to answer Captain Sparrow's second question. If you help me save my friends, rescue the princesses and stop the evil goat skeleton from doing what ever it is he is doing. Then well you will obviously be well rewarded, after all the Princesses are immortal Alicorns and rulers of two nations, one of which is literally made of jewels. Also I can easily fix that ship in the bottle problem of yours." Said Discord.

Luffy stopped eating "I'm in. You want us to save your friends right?" He looked at the stone ponies. "Then I will not only help but I will personally punch that stupid undead goat skeleton things face in! You have my word as king of the pirates!" Said Luffy.

Don Karnage stood put a foot on the table and drew his sword and pointed it in the air. "I the Great Don Karnage as pirate of honor, will also help, though I will need my plane fixed and compensation for my time and efforts." He sheathed his sword.

"Count me in, with me and Karnage in the sky we should be able to save the princesses. Besides I never could resist a damsel in distress, and a royal pay check for this sounds good." said Nathan.

Jack looked at the group then at Discord. "You get me my ship back, mate, and I'll save your princesses, but I'll still need some rum. No man, sane or not can do something this crazy sober."

"Well lads I guess we have come to an agreement, but I think we all overlooked two problems, even if we have Captain Sparrow's ship from that view off the balcony we have no water to sail her on and we have no crew to sail her with." Kenway points out.

" That's not a problem. I'll just make it fly when I get it out of the bottle. As for crew... well both Trixie and Vinyl are unicorns. I'm sure that between the two of them they can handle anything you need on ship as they help with your quest." Said Discord getting stink eye from Trixie while no one could tell if Vynal was giving him the same look cause of her shades.

"Well, there is still one problem, no rum." Said Jack.

"What's with you and rum?" Asked Nathan as he stood up and walked to his plane.

Jack looked at him and said. "I like rum. It's a pirates best friend. Besides if the is world is full of colorful talking unicorns-"

"And earth ponies, Pegasus ponies, zebras, buffalo, saddlearabians, dragons, dunkies, minotuars, chimeras, Diamond dogs, bat ponies, kelpies, seaponies, griffins, goats and crystal ponies." Adds in Trixie smiling at the dumb founded and shocked look on Jacks face.

"That's it, I ain't moving till I get me rum." Said Jack sitting down and pulling the ship in the bottle that was the Black Pearl out of his coat and set it on the table.

Luffy ran around and starred at it. "So cool. Is that a monkey? Awsome!"

Nathan set a crate on the table. "Here Jack try this." He pulls a bottle out of the crate and hands to Jack. "It's bootleg whiskey made by the Decarlow brothers gang. It's not rum but I have two cases of it it should do till we get some for you."

Jack fiddled with top till it popped of with his teeth he spit it out and took a swig. "Uagh burns horrible, and hits like sand paper. It will do fine mate." He looks to Discord and the table. "Now about my.... where'd the Black Pearl go?" He asked noticing the bottle was gone. Discord smiled and pointed off the balcony.

"Woo Monkey!" Shouted Luffy as he swung from one timber to the next chasing the monkey around his arms stretching as he did so.

"This is shaping up to be one strange voyage mates." Said Kenway as he watched Luffy.

"Yes. Yes it is." Said Nathan as he took a swig of whiskey and passed the bottle to Kenway.

"No thanks mate, I think this is the first time I want to stay sober... just so I can know this is all real." He passed it down to Don Karnage who now seemed normal given what he was seeing.

Karnage took a hard swig. "That's a good Whiskey though I prefer wine. I think it's appropriate given the strangeness of all this. Yes, no?" Said Karnage who passed it left with out looking, it being taken by Trixie's magic.

"Trixie agrees but Trixie would rather have some apple family hard cider." She took a drink and offered it Vinyl.

"None for me. My marefriend hates it when I drink, so I quit." Said Vinyl. Trixie shrugged took a second swig and floated it back to Nathan.

Jack walked to banister and then jumped from it to his ship. "All right, mates, get those contraptions of yours tied down on deck, and bring the whiskey we have to go play hero and ruin our bad name as pirates." He then did his strange stumble strut around the deck investigating the ship.

"Allow me." Said Discord as he snapped his claw and teleported the rest of the group on the ship along with the planes. "Have fun on your adventure, and do return swiftly with a cure and the princesses!" Called Discord as ship drifted away... He looked around. "Now what to do while I wait. I know I'll go tell Blueblood and Shining about what's going on and see if they want to play poker." He snapped his fingers and made a maid appear. "Miss, the princesses have been foalnapped, they and my friends are turned to stone and need looking after until the pirates and performers I enlisted rescue the Alicorns from the undead villain and find a cure, do so. So make sure that's done and the other maids know, I'm going to inform Shinny and Blueballs." With that he snapped his tail fur and vanished.

"They don't pay us enough for this horse apples." Grumbled the maid as she shut the door to the balcony before starting to clean up.

I'm the captain! (is not fully edited)

Author's Note

This has been done for a while but can't get it edited so here it is so the fans at lest have something.

I'm the captain! (is not fully edited)

"Ok. Now for the success of this voyage. I think we need a... um.. head Captain and seeing how it's my ship. I feel it's only fitting that it should be me." Said Jack

"Hold on just a minute! I'm the king of pirates I should be the captain!" Shouted Luffy before he dropped down to the deck.

Don Karnage looked at them both with a raised eyebrow. "I thinks we have problem."

"Too many Captain's on one ship?" Asked Nathan as he stood next to his fellow air pirate.

"Yes. If this had happend any other day I would be claiming to be the captain my self..... But I must admit I need a brake from it a regular thorn in my side in the shape of a fat pilot and my ex-cabin boy had recently saw fit to spoil what was turning in to a profitable plan." He sighs and rubbed his brow before turning to his plane and pulling out a tool box. "Tho given our choices, I don't hold to much hope for our success so we should probably be retry to, as they say, Fly the cupe. Yes, No?" Said Don.

"My ship I'm the captain!" Said Jack in a snippity tone.

"I'm the king of the pirates, so I'm the captain!" Shouted Luffy.

Kenway walked up and pushed the two apart. "Hay easy lads we can just have a vote and decided..."

"Stay out of this!" Shouted Jack
"Stay out of this!" Shouted Luffy

Kenway backed up raising his hands.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"Edward, leave them be all that your doing is risking a punch in the nose from one or both of them!" Called Nathan. He looked at the plane Don was working on. "That's a old school engine. How do you keep that relic flying?" Asked a shocked sounding Nathan.

"Relic I'll have you know my CT-37 is top of the line and its six fifty cals can shred any plane in the sky." Said Don, his plane might not look as nice as Nathan's but it was no hanger queen.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"Oh! Sorry didn't mean to hit a nerve. It's just well... here look at my Devasteor." Said Nathan waving Don over to see his plan. He opened the engine cowling and let the wolf man see the difference. "She is the top of the line even used by two air militia and a one nations air force's. Eight fifty cals to your six and 14 radar guided homing missiles. She's a real zepkiller." Nathan smiled as Don's jaw hung open.

"Is that a turbo charger? I only seen one of those on on the Sea Duck. And vhat is with that engine?" Don was amazed if it was a battle of soully planes this Devasteor as Nathan called it was a sure bet against his CT-37 even after his modifications.

"Yeah a old friend hooked us up with the blue print. But running it too long stalls out your engine." Said Nathan.

"Do you have them on you?" Asked Don invading Nathan's personal space.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"Um... let me check, I think I might." Said Nathan backing up. He searched his jacket then sighed. "Sorry not on me let me check if I have the ones for the this exact engine in the glove box. It won't fit your plane but we could at lest have a starting point to jarryrig something similar." Said Nathan.

Then Don did something that surprised every one even distracting Luffy and Jack. He hugged Nathan and kissed both his cheeks. "Muah! Muah! You are a saint among pirates from this day on you are my brother!" Said Don when he realised him.

"Ok, ok, but kiss me again and I'll have to hit you." Said Nathan whiping his face.

"That was quite strange." Said Jack

"Totally." Said Luffy. The two then looked back at each other.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

(Yes that was done as a joke)

Trixie rubbed her head as the twos bickering idiots was starting to annoy her.

"I can't believe those two dolts are Captains." Said Kenway

"My ship, I'm Captain!" Shouted Jack

"I'm the pirate king so I'm Captain!" Shouted Luffy.

"Enoguh!" Shouted Trixie who's horn lit up as she grabed Luffy and Jack by their heads then knocked them in to each other. "Your giving Trixie a headache. So now Trixie is Captain! Any objections?" She shouted as she dropped them and made a Hat and cape with stars and moons all over them appear on her.

"I, Don karnage, vote for violent magic lady as Captain for our mission. Yes, No?" Don said.

"I second that." Said Nathan.

"I'll take the helm, with your approval Captain Trixie." Said Kenway.

"Vary well. Now Luffy up on the rigging give us full sail. We need to first find a cure for Twilight's friends so Trixie doesn't have to deal with you and Jack alone." Said Trixie as she walked up to aft deck.

"And what's our course Captain?" Asked Kenway.

"I believe I can help with that." Said Jack as he did his weird strut walk up to Trixie and pulled out his compass and opened it showing it spinning. "You see this compass points to anything it's holders heart desires." It stops point out to the valley where a thick farrest is. "And that's where we will find the cure." the compass changes directions and points down. "And the hold is where I'll find some rum." He hands the compass to Trixie. "If you'll excuse me I'm going to have a drink." He looks at Kenway "try not to wreck my ship you won't believe what I went thought to get her." He turned and started down the steps but tripped rolled and landed on his feet at the bottom. "I ment to do that." He then went bellow decks.

"I think this is a crazier crew then mine." Said Don before looking at Luffy hanging from the flag pole. "And a few of them are dumber too." He added.

"Yeah, I hear you this will be one for the mewars." He then tapped Don's shoulder and pointed to the other unicorn who had head phones on and a strange board and spinning records. Don looked at the sight and shook his head as he went back to fixing his plane.

"These female are strange as their world is" he said as he reached for a tool only to not find the box where he left it. He looked around for it. "That's strange? Where did my tools go? Did the mankey take them?" He asked aloud. Trixie cleared his throat, drawing his attention. She then points up with her hoof making him look up seeing the missing tool box floating in her magic. "E-squs-y?" Asked Don as his ears foaled back right before the box dumped its contents on his head then dropped the box on him.

"Trixie's name is not violent magic lady, it is Trixie Lulamoon remember it." Said Trixie as she floated the tools and box back to place. "Undersatnd?"

"Eye-eye! Captain Lulamoon!" Shouted Don as he rubbed his head.

Nathan looked at his new captain. "Always nice to know we have a captain that can reach out and help as need without taking a step." Said Nathan.

"Or discipline her crew from across the ship. Wonder if she would be interested in coming to my world to be my second in command when this is over?" Said Don as he started cleaning the goo from his engine.

"What happened to you engine?" Asked Nathan.

"Baloo happened to it that's what shot me down with a berry large wad of bubble gum. Not as bad as when he made the fruity salad out of me... But still worse then tricking me by hiding rubies in strawberry jam. I am considering when I go back offering him a post as wing commander. It definitely would pay more then he makes as a cargo pilot." Said Don.

"Think he go for it?" Asked Nathan.

"No. Not likely, but worth a try. Yes, No?" Said Don.

Nathan looked at the sky as the ship floated along. "You know it might not be worth going back. I lost my ship and my crew are in the wind. I wounder if we save the princesses they would let us stay?" He said.

"Thinking of starting over again? I must say this world would be a nice place to retire and if we pull this of we would be genuwiny heros. But what would you do? All I know is flying, fighting, stealing and scheming. Ahhh. I realize it now that my life is set on these wings. I will die a pirate. When I get home I will move my base find easier picking away from Baloo and his friends. Maybe take a new apprentice." Said Don

"You been a pirate a long time I take it?" Asked Nathan.

"True..." he pulled the last of the gunk from the engine. "Maybe too long... seen to many up and down. I am even running out of plans. I wounder if those knuckle heads are still looking for me?" Said Don as he checked the intakes.

"I see. Maybe we could work together I used to work in the stock market. If the have financial trading I could show you how it's done." Said Nathan pating Don on the back.

Jack came out of a near by hatch. "Is it my understanding that you lads are wanting out of this life? Whatever reason would you have to want to go straight?" Said Jack before taking a swig of rum. "I mean I'm staying but not to give up piracy or be a bloody hero them princesses are immortals according to that strange snake thing. So that means there is a way to become immortal here. And that's exactly what I want. Immortal pirate Captain Jack Sparrow." He then fell backwards through the hatch. "I'm alright the rum didn't spill!" He called up.

Nathan and Don looked in the whole at him. "Is it just me or is that stupidest pirate you ever met?" Asked Don.

"No it's not you. He is definitely a drunken fool." Said Nathan.

Treasure hunting with out a map.

After sailing for three days the the compass finally spun in place. "That means where over what you want love." Said Jack

Trixie rolled her eyes and hooked it back to him. "Then we shall descend in to the trees below and look on hoof in the Everfree forest!" Declared Trixie.

"And who will watch the ship? The Black Pearl has a Nast habit of being stolen." Said Jack.

"Don Karnage, Vinyl Scratch. I trust you two can look after the ship while we look for the cure." Asked Trixie

Vinyl was bobbing her head with her head phones on. Don looked at her then to Trixie. "The ship is in good hands and hooves oh captyton Lulumoon. We will ensure nothing happens to a single splinter or thread. Or my name is-" Don was cut of by Trixie

"See that it's so. The rest of you lower the anchor we will use it to climb down!" Shouted Trixie

Nathan stopped by Don. "If anything dose show up I keep a spare 45 automatic pistol in the glove box."

"I will not need it. My pistol only looks old it is actually a vary vary customized 357 magnume. But I will keep that in mind if I run out of bullets." Don and Nathan shook hands as the human went to where Luffy was watching the anchor slide down the sound of trees snapping and cracking under its force carried up.

"So think there will be giant two headed monsters dripping with slime or maybe a five headed dragon?" Asked Luffy with excitement in his voice.

"Let's hope just some old ruins with traps rusted beyond use." Said Nathen.

"Wishfull thinking chum. It's been my experience that the older the ruins the more effective and better lasting the traps used to protect it are." Said Edward as he hopped the railing. Followed by Luffy just jumping of the ship.

"Is it just me or do you feel that this is not going to be easy." Said Jack as he looked over the side.

"No it's not going to be easy nothing is ever easy." Said Nathen

The two started down Jack looked up and then shouted. "Hay that's cheating Captain!"

Trixie floated down on a cloud riding right past the humans. "And how you expect me to climb with hooves?" Was her retort as she passed.

"She has a point." Said Nathen.

"Besides the one on her head you mean?" Said Jack this earning him a zap in the ass from Trixie who obviously herd him.

Once on the ground they Found Luffy head stuck in the ground and a tree branch around his body. "Can we leave him this way I rather like him not talking?" asked Jack.

"As tempting as that is no." Said Trixie as she pulled the branch of Luffy then his head out of the ground.

"Hehehehe, that was a longer fall then I thought." Said Luffy.

"You think? Here I thought you just acted on impulse." Said Jack

Luffy looked at him confused then tilted his head and his whole body to his right then after a few seconds snapped up strait. "Hay did you just call me stupid?!" He shouted!

"Wow he figured that out faster then I expected." Whispered Nathen to Edward who just nodded.

"Enough!"Shouted Trixie. "Mister Sparrow the compass if you please." Jack handed her the compass and the group set off through the forest.

Meanwhile on ship. Don Karnage was well working. "You know Jack needs to take much better care of his ship. I mean look at this mess. When was the last time he swabbed the deck? Or scrapped the barnacles of the hull?" He looked at Vinyl Scratch who though still lessening to what he now new was music was doing as he asked and cleaning the cannons even doing so by the book.

When he looked back to his own work, he was greeted by a floating ram skull. "Hello there warrior of another world. Tell me why you and your friends seek to undo what I have done?" Came a echoing voice.

"You are the one that turned the ponies to stone yes? Well really for me and most of us I think, it's just business. I mean we are pirates." Said Don

"So I see. Tell me what price would it take to have you, the most underhanded and cruel of your group, to turn on the others and join me?" Said the skull.

Don karnage made a show of looking insulated and turned to see Vinyl still working. "You wound me I am a man of my ward." He turns back to see the skull had a image of a hord of treasure below it with a small throne in front. "But I can be swayed... for a vary vary considerable price."

"Bring me the cure and end your crew and all your wildest dreams will be granted."

The skull vanished and Don turned to see Vinyl giving him the death glare. "Really uncool dude." She said while aiming a cannon at him.

"Now don't go jumping to conclusions. I just told it what it wanted to hear and expected. Do you really think I would stab my fellow crew mates in the back?" Asked Don

Vinyl's horn lit and floated a slow match to ready position over the cannon. Don's ears played back. "I promise I will never hurt any of our crew mates!" He said putting his hands up.

"Pinkie pie promise. Repeat after me and do as I do." She then went through the motion and said. "Cross my heart hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye."

Don did the move ments and said "Cross my heart hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye, I will never intentional physically harm our crew. See though that felt silly to do. Also I reserve the right to crack jokes about Luffy and Jack with Nathen."

"Yeah I hear you but a Pinkie promises is no joke. She will hunt down and do unspeakable things to any one pony or not that brakes them. Think it's some ancient contract curse thing." Said Vinyl.

Don gulped and nodded as the two got back to work.

Back on the ground with the others.

"A temple. Why it have to be a temple?" Said Nathen

"Bad experience with temples mate?" Asked Edward

"A fascist mad man and his army held up in a one it was crazy to have a air battle in the temple as the place was blowing up around us. Not my smartest move but definitely my most thrilling moment." Said Nathen.

"Must have been some adventure. Love to here the full story." Said Edward as they walk along.

"Is it just me or are the statues watching us?" Asked Jack.

"They are, I can fell the magic in them they can't move but they where once alive." Said Trixie

The temples halls where lined with statues of ponies, dragons, and a host of other creatures from different times seemingly frozen in battle with some forgotten foe then placed as trophies.

"Wait your saying all these statues where people once?" Asked Jack looking at Diamond dog that seems to be cowering in fear.

"They still are trapped in stone by some force. Neither living or dead but trapped in a prison in between." Trixie strokes the check of a Pegasus legionary. That has clearly been here for thousands of years. "In Equestria we have no death penalty. Any crime that would warrant it is punished more cruelly. Rather then executing some one pony or not Celestia turns them to stone and sends them to sit in the gardens of Tarturs forever trapped in their mind to suffer for their crimes." Said Trixie.

"And just what crime dose one need to commit to surfer that fate love?" Asked Jack looking nervous.

"Only three crimes carry this punishment. As the way to reverse it has been lost for longer then Celestia her self has been alive. Those crimes are, regicide of course, murder, and rape." Answered Trixie.

"I see good thing I'm not the type of pirate that just goes around killing people for no reason." Said Jack.

"My hands might be a bit more dirty. I am a member of a order know as the Assassins. I killed a lot of people both to protect the world and for personal reasons. I'm no saint. If anything we are probably devil's. But I have a daughter waiting back home in England. After this mess I'm going home and will be the best father I can be to her." Said Edward.

"Must be niece. Having a reason to make it big and come back alive. Some one to fight for and all." Said Nathen.

They entered the central chamber vary on edge from lack of traps. On the pedestal sat a book of gold.

"Is that the cure?" Asked Jack

"It's the instructions to make the cure to the spell the bearded one stole from our grandmother after seducing her." A woman's voice called echoing in the chamber. "Then every so often warriors, thieves, soldiers, and mages have attacked use looking to take it. I'm the last of my tribe. But I will not let the secret leave my hooves." She walked around a statue a blindfold on her eyes.

"Is that a Gorgon pony?" Asked Nathen

"Yes it is Trixie never believed the stories in of great great grandfathers journal, about the gorgon ponies he stole the petrification spell from." Trixie quikly covered her mouth.

"You are a descendant of Starswirl!? Hahahahahahah. Oh irony of the Fate Writer she loves to to torment us mortals I too am born of the spell thief. Dose he have other progeny about?" Said the Gorgon.

"Not that Trixie knows of it is said that he was cursed to have one defendant for every thousand spells tied to his name. So Trixie assumed that the rest of his children just never had children." She stepped up to the mare. "But Trixie never considered that Trixie missing cousins could be of what he called monster pony tribes."

"Monster's that's not our mother's mother said he called her." Said the Gorgon

"If it is any consultation he never married but was vary lose stallion. The only reason Trixie has his personal journal is Trixie is the only official descendant." Said Trixie.

As the two mare talked Jack held Luffy of the ground. "You think having a dead bet ancestor is something to bond over.?" He ask.

"No but it gives me a idea." Said Nathen walking up. "Laides as much as learning the history of your world would be interesting. We have a mission and now we have two choices. We could fight putting at risk of ending one of two blood lines from the same sire. Or you could help us. The lost defendant of the great wizard joining her cousin in saving Equestria while still guarding the secrets of her lost and forgotten tribes magic. Think about it and all the young stallions that would be lining up to spend a night with a beautiful and exotic mare." Said Nathen.

The gorons snake heads fallow him as he spoke. Then when he fished she was silent for a long moment then started laughing. "You are either the craziest or most brilliant group to ever enter my families den. All before demeaned the book or tried to take it never once thinking why that wizard never took the cure." She counties to laugh falling to her belly Luffy now free joined her a arm around her.

He then asks. "So why he never take the cure granny snake pony catch on?" Asked Luffy

"No the mare said. The cure is me or my tribe that spell book is our magic but the cure is our venom one bite of our snakes and your immune or cured to petrification spells." She said giggling "Your the first to ask."

"So all these warriors and thieves where fighting what they came for? Haha." This Fate Writer of yours is not just a fan of irony she is a artist of it" said Edward.

"I hope she is not in to karma." Said Jack.

"So cousin will you join our crew? Trixie needs someponies that are trustworthy." Said Trixie

Earning a "HAY!" From the men.

"Let me get my book and bags. And the name is Madusa Gaze." Said Marusa

"I'm Trixie Lulumoon, nice to have family again." Said Trixe as she nuzzles the mare getting nipped by a snake and yelping.

"Want to see my cousin when this is over." Said Madusa.

"Nice to know Trixie is protected." Said Trixie.

"Hay can you bite me too?" Asked Luffy. She obliges by biting him on the hand hard with her pony mouth. "Ouch! I ment the vaccine thing!" Said Luffy shaking his hand.

"I know but you touched me with out asking." Said Madusa

"Trixie agrees serves you right." Said Trixie

The other pirates nodded in agreement that he deserved it.
