Yay! Another part to the story! I love the random jokes you throw in there, like the cliche Disney movies. Also, I find this interesting.... Sammy went against the ninjas? *gasp* Is this true? If so, I laugh.

If so, I laugh. Ti's true, Zylaa. Hello? No insanity? How the heck am I supposed to live with that?! So yes, I fought alongside the pirates/rebels and against the ninjas. ;D

April Fools and Changing Rules Part Three
Rider laughed with elation and adrenaline. The occasional fizz of blue lightning danced across her face, showing that the giddiness wasn’t solely caused by her near brush with death.
Sammy couldn’t help but smile either. The looks on those ninjas’ faces! Who would have guessed that Sammy would turn renegade? Not even Sammy herself.
“So now what?” Rider asked, turning her bright brown eyes to the streets of Neopia Central. “Arr, we be needin’ weapons?”
“You be needin’ weapons,” Sammy said, curling her hand and conjuring black, oily flames. “I be needin’ nothing.”
“Suit yourself.”
The duo made a brief stop at Rider’s house to grab her cutlass and what Rider called her “Gabool Garb.” “HTML got it for me,” she said proudly, tugging at the edges of the gold-colored top and the purple vest. “Stole it off a searat Cap’n and had to sterilize it several times over.”
“All that for nothing,” Sammy laughed, knowing that the minute the lass hit the high seas, soap was a thing of the past.
They ventured out of the city, to the shoreline between Meridell and Neopia Central. “I’m about to show you something that no ninja has seen before. Since you seem to have blown up all of our previous ones, not to mention sunk most of our ships. A new Pirate HQ.”
Sammy looked around at the sandy dunes and endless sea. “I don’t see anything.”
“Ahh, but that’s the point, isn’t it?” The pirate Cap’n smiled, drawing a jet-black remote control from her satchel. Buttons lit up in various shades of red and blue. Rider pressed the middle button, and a sound like the creaking of stairs in a horror film filled the beach.
“It’s a bit shabby. I built it out of driftwood and pieces of technology that we, erm, ‘liberated’ from one of Sloth’s vessels. But it works, and it was going to be our new home.”
A shadow fell over Sammy’s face. “Do you think the other pirates are going to be okay?”
“Aye. They’re pirates. We trained together many a time, and many a time we saved each other.”
A gull cried overhead. Rider inhaled the aroma of saltwater. “Remember that storm a couple of weeks ago? The one that felled the tree that crushed the hood of Nigel’s car?
“My crew and I were in that storm, in the Misty Weewoo. The rain was sloshing down, transforming all the heavens into a waterfall of force. The wind shaped the droplets into stinging pellets, a hundred thousand of them sweeping across our deck per minute. Ikkin and Eggz were in the mast, trying to take the sails in. Kat was shouting orders, roping in the cannons with her magic. Zylaa was grabbing cannonballs and vittles and anything she could salvage from the insatiable appetite of the waves. They were like famished beasts, knocking against the sides of our ship, making her toss and tilt like a carnival ride. I could scarcely hear my thoughts over the waves.” The cap’n chuckled. “I told Ery so. He asked if this silence in my brain was an unusual thing.”
Sammy chuckled also.
“NSQ was sitting on the poopdeck, oblivious to the cold and everything. Quite content with a tankard in one hand and a doughnut in the other. But a wind whipped up, blowing the doughnut and causing it to roll. Poor girl chased that snack right over the edge of the ship.
“I ne’er did see me crew pull together so well. We latched Kat onto a rope and lowered her into the waves. Brave lass if e’er I saw one. But then we spotted a ship on the horizon. The only other Cap’n mad enough ter be out on a night like this. Cap’n Finnanegan, raider of Meridell’s ports and destroyer of Mystery Island’s shores. A femme fatale, air faerie and master of the wind. She hit us in the prow, sank us like a stone. Her crew of faerie pets and air fae swooped upon the wreckage and plundered all. Her mer-fae would dive into the sea and took anything that sunk to the bottom. Zylaa was furious. I remember wrenching her away from the cannon and into a lifeboat. The air faerie sent a dozen of her scallywags. If I remember nothing else about that night, I shall always remember the sting of the rain and the slice of the blades. If we could make it through that, we can make it through this.”
* * *
Meanwhile, the ninjas were establishing their undisputed rule over the Splatterboard. Tracy stood on a dais, her eyes like marbles and her mouth curled downward in a grimace. She read from a rolled sheet of rice paper.
“Since the other slanderous, disgusting "tabloids" has been locked, all forms of Ninja news and events can be posted in here. The following are forbidden;
o Behaviour that is deemed as socially incorrect (aka. insánity) o Public displays of affection o Polygamy o The spreading of slander and lies o Rebellion and anti-Ninja movements
OBEY!”
And she turned to Kiddo. “Any tasks, oh powerful and mighty master?”
The fox-fae waved her hand dismissively. “Just keep everyone in line while I complete the final stages of takeover. And find someone to make me a pot of tea... chai, to be exact. With no sugar.”
Crystal walked into the room, holding a steaming pot of chai. Two steps ahead of the game, Stal noticed with interest. Crystal-sama placed the tea in front of Kiddo, soft as a whisper. “Ah, the new recruits.
As you may have noticed, a few word filters have been placed upon the NTWF. Words like 'pirate' are now forbidden, and respect will be given utterly to the ninjas.
There are very few rules for those of you who are NOT actually part of the whole ninja-pirate- Ninja Domination fad.
Firstly, the NTWF is now ruled by a new government. We will not be too harsh, merely extract every 80 percent of all crops as taxes and expect you to ask permission to eat breakfast. All mods and ruling members of the government have complete dominion and are free to use their powers whenever they wish.
For that matter, i n sanity will no longer be tolerated, and is punishable by death. You're all too soft. From now on, we will be putting up a strict regime. There will be no grog or cutlasses... those are for unhygienic people. Instead, you will stick to tea and sake. Reprogrammed Ninja Slave talk such as 'Yarr' or (God forbid) 'Matey' will result in immediate and harsh consequences.”
Sammy and Rider slunk through the Ninja HQ shadows in their new outfits. Sammy had (somewhat forcefully) convinced Rider to give up her brightly-colored Gabool garb. The two had donned ninja clothing stolen from the ninja laundry room. It was scary. In Rider’s opinion, so much cleanliness should not be allowed in one place.
Blue lightning played around the corners of Rider’s eyes, causing her skin to prickle and her hair to stand on end. Seeing the blue, Tracy snuck up behind Rider and whispered in her ear, “Sometimes you need to downgrade your technology to get results.”
A clonk, and all was black.
