Title: The (Fairy) Pirates
Post by: Raven on October 06, 2014, 12:01:13
Part One - The Plan


'I'm exhausted,' said Willow, 'Work, work, work, every single day.  If only we could find out where that treasure is located, then we'd never have to work hard again.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP01_zps5b639891.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP01_zps5b639891.jpg.html)

Just then, Holly returned.

'I've found out where the treasure is!' she cried, 'I've got a map to the island.  I just need to buy a ship to go there in.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP02_zps3da1bb4e.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP02_zps3da1bb4e.jpg.html)

'Is the treasure guarded?' the other fairies asked.

'Yes,' said Holly, 'But the guardian can be defeated.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP03_zpsd227f3d8.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP03_zpsd227f3d8.jpg.html)

'You'll be a pirate,' said Chestnut.

'Will I?' said Holly.

'Yes, of course,' Chestnut told her, 'A pirate is someone who goes out in a ship to rob people and gather treasure.  Look: I've been reading a book all about it.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP04_zpse435990c.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP04_zpse435990c.jpg.html)

'Then I will buy a Pirate Ship,' declared Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP05_zps6c119eb3.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP05_zps6c119eb3.jpg.html)

Holly turned to Willow.

'Willow, when I've bought the pirate ship, will you come with me to find the treasure?' she asked, 'Your skills will be so useful.'

'Certainly I will come,' said Willow.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP06_zps2840af32.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP06_zps2840af32.jpg.html)

'Can I come too?' asked little Petal, jumping to her feet.

'Sure,' said Holly, 'It will be an exciting adventure for you.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP07_zpse0c90ebb.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP07_zpse0c90ebb.jpg.html)

And so Holly went to buy a Pirate Ship from the local Pirate Ship Seller.

'Here's a nice ship for you,' said Captain Seller, 'It's forest green, so it will really suit you, I think.'

'It's too small,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP08_zpsfad23d9d.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP08_zpsfad23d9d.jpg.html)

'Show me your other ship,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP09_zpsdc1263a6.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP09_zpsdc1263a6.jpg.html)

'Now this ship is a better size,' she said approvingly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP10_zpsa2e3362b.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP10_zpsa2e3362b.jpg.html)

'I'll need a few changes, of course,' Holly continued.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP11_zps8ae8d454.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP11_zps8ae8d454.jpg.html)

'And if you can make the changes for me, then I will buy this ship,' she said.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP12_zpsa89cd02c.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP12_zpsa89cd02c.jpg.html)

'It's a deal,' said Captain Seller.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP13_zpscc65ec7e.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP13_zpscc65ec7e.jpg.html)

Sometime later, Holly received a message that her ship was ready.

'I've made all the changes you specified,' said Captain Seller.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP14_zps55acfec6.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP14_zps55acfec6.jpg.html)

'Looks good,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP15_zps52595a2d.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP15_zps52595a2d.jpg.html)

'Yes, I like this pirate ship very much now.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP16_zpsba0a654b.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP16_zpsba0a654b.jpg.html)

Part Two - Setting Sail


'As soon as we've finished loading the ship, we will be on our way,' Holly said to Petal.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP17_zpsd2237711.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP17_zpsd2237711.jpg.html)

'Do you know how to sail a ship?' asked Willow.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP18_zps345cbfdf.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP18_zps345cbfdf.jpg.html)

'Oh no,' said Holly, 'I just like to pretend that I am sailing it.  Actually, the ship is fitted with a magical navigation rod, and it sails itself.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP19_zps45a1ff29.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP19_zps45a1ff29.jpg.html)

After a couple of days travelling on the self-sailing ship, Holly said to the others, 'Come and look: we've got a companion.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP20_zps3495a603.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP20_zps3495a603.jpg.html)

'I'm going to feed him,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP21_zps361b517a.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP21_zps361b517a.jpg.html)

And, after that, Holly fed the shark every day.  Little Petal named him Sidney.

'He's Sidney the Shark,' she said.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP22_zps833ce6b3.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP22_zps833ce6b3.jpg.html)

'Look! Look!' cried Willow, 'Look what is ahead!'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP23_zps5426bf1f.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP23_zps5426bf1f.jpg.html)

'I'm going to drop anchor.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP24_zps09b41a47.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP24_zps09b41a47.jpg.html)

'It's Ice-Cream Island!'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP25_zpsf4fd9eb4.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP25_zpsf4fd9eb4.jpg.html)

'I'll get the rowing boat,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP26_zps44249e93.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP26_zps44249e93.jpg.html)

'Mind out of the way, Sidney.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP27_zpsc452d4e3.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP27_zpsc452d4e3.jpg.html)

'Ice-creams here we come!'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP28_zps5f60b72c.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP28_zps5f60b72c.jpg.html)

'Two dishes of vanilla ice-cream; one of strawberry; and a chocolate cone for Sidney the Shark, please,' said Willow.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP29_zps3ef0c4f6.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP29_zps3ef0c4f6.jpg.html)

'Here you are, Sidney,' said Holly, 'Eat up and grow nice and fa— strong.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP30_zpsd8685e28.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP30_zpsd8685e28.jpg.html)

After enjoying their ice-creams, the fairy pirates sailed off again, bound for the treasure island.

I've been laughing out loud with this installment  :lol:  The pink rowing boat, I can't believe you've found the perfect use for that. And the fairy with the pirate bandana, haha. And the ice cream mermaids!!

But those elves, they really can't be trusted, can they?  :o

Part Three - The Journey


'What is that island ahead?' asked Willow.

'Let's look at the map,' said Holly.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP32_zps6ee02aa2.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP32_zps6ee02aa2.jpg.html)

'Oh, it's Excess Island,' she said, 'That's where people dump their excess buckets.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP33_zpsebb3889d.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP33_zpsebb3889d.jpg.html)

One morning after passing Excess Island, Holly got up very early, and was very busy.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP34_zps1132bead.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP34_zps1132bead.jpg.html)

This is a nice steak,' said Willow, 'Is it sha—'

'Shamelessly good steaks!' interupted Holly, casting a glance at Petal, 'Yes, that's what they are: shamelessly good steaks.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP35_zps9a4bc1db.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP35_zps9a4bc1db.jpg.html)

After finishing her meal, Petal went to throw her crumbs overboard as usual.

'Where's Sidney?' she said.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP36_zps5aadf63c.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP36_zps5aadf63c.jpg.html)

Thankfully, Petal was soon distracted, for the treasure island was ahead!

'Look!' she cried, 'I can see the treasure!'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP38_zps2b575ed2.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP38_zps2b575ed2.jpg.html)

Willow set off alone to collect the treasure.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP39_zps2e0ac4ac.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP39_zps2e0ac4ac.jpg.html)

First she needed to deal with the guardian of the treasure.

'Drop that knife immediately,' she said, 'Or else you will regret it.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP40_zps73ac2151.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP40_zps73ac2151.jpg.html)

He regretted it.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP41_zps82064cf4.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP41_zps82064cf4.jpg.html)

'Now for the treasure.'

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP42_zps43b224d1.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP42_zps43b224d1.jpg.html)

One by one, Holly rowed the unicorns to the ship.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP43_zps59e4758f.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP43_zps59e4758f.jpg.html)

And sent them on board.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP44_zpsf1fd31fc.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP44_zpsf1fd31fc.jpg.html)

Finally, all the treasure was collected.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP45_zps02d413cb.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP45_zps02d413cb.jpg.html)

And the ship turned around and sailed for home.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP46_zpsac19f45a.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP46_zpsac19f45a.jpg.html)

What! Sha-melessly good steak!!!

The island of misfit buckets, sigh I know that one well.

Unexpected treasure at the island. Good thing that ghost pirate was so easily dealt with. Hope he didn't sneak on board...

Great story very funny I like your descriptions like Captain Seller and The Island Of Excess Buckets who'd have thought there woudl be such an island in the middle of the sea not to mention an ice cream island very convinient  ;) Those fairies have clearly got some good magic skills to turn that guard into a mouse,I also like the ship with it's tye die sails and plants and that Pirate book looks great  :)

That would have been an amusing idea.  But I never thought of that....

-------------------------------------

Final Part - Returning Home


The voyage home was uneventful.  They passed Excess Island again, where people were now dumping their excess wheelbarrows, as well as their excess buckets.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP47_zps1cc50bb7.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP47_zps1cc50bb7.jpg.html)

This time, they didn't stop for ice-creams at Ice-Cream Island.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP48_zps3b4f0f1e.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP48_zps3b4f0f1e.jpg.html)

The ship sailed safely into the harbour.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP49_zpsa4d44a8d.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP49_zpsa4d44a8d.jpg.html)

And Willow led the unicorns ashore.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP50_zps2a31ce5d.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP50_zps2a31ce5d.jpg.html)

The other fairies were very happy to see all the treasure.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP51_zpsd1766b14.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP51_zpsd1766b14.jpg.html)

'We'll never have to work hard again,' they said.

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i157/Raven461/FP52_zpsc81d68dc.jpg) (http://s71.photobucket.com/user/Raven461/media/FP52_zpsc81d68dc.jpg.html)

'Life is so much easier now.'

'And don't tell Petal, but this one is called Sidney.'
