[color=#800000]::With
another perfect day in paradise, the party-goers on Castaway Cay found
themselves in great happiness and anticipation of the night's festivites. The Rangers were equally excited, meeting and
greeting various Rangerphiles near the red carpeted
entrance to the spectacular ship Wonder. Dale had a mini digital camera and
clicked away constantly with it::
Chip: Dale, slow down with that
thing! You won't have any pictures left for the ceremony inside.[/color]
[color=#FF0022]Dale: Don't worry, Chip. I know what I'm doing! I've got a jillion
memory cards. I need to keep an eye
out—I heard on the grapevine that Elvis would be here tonight, so I can't take
any chances! [/color]
[color=#8040FF]Gadget: Dale, Elvis did in the 70's. How could he be here?[/color]
[color=#FF0022]Dale: He faked his death to escape the limelight.
And don’t forget the space aliens!
[/color]
[color=#800000]::Dale
brought out a map and shoved it in Chip’s face::[/color]
[color=#FF0022]Dale:
We’re right in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle! Aliens could swoop down any
minute and take us to their planet! But don’t worry, I’m prepared![/color]
[color=#800000]::Chip
sighs, realizing it’s going to be another long night::
Chip: Dale, you don’t really
believe that the Bermuda Triangle’s infested with aliens, do you?
::Chip
turned to stare Dale down, but found the red-nosed chipmunk was wearing a
pirate hat, covered with tinfoil::
Chip: Gimme
that!
::Chip
grabbed for the hat but Dale dodged him::
[/color]
[color=#FF0022]Dale:
No, no! This is my protection. This way, none of the aliens will know I’m wise
to him. They can’t steal my thoughts![/color]
[color=#800000]
Chip: As if any of them were
worth stealing…[/color]
[color=#408000]Monty: Just don't get distracted, lad. Remember the awards are tonight. We've got to keep an eye out for any trouble.
Seems like every year someone tries to steal those things.[/color]
[color=#800000]Chip:
Yeah, wouldn't be surprised if Fat Cat, Sewernose and
Nimnul were teamed up and after them this time. Everyone keep a sharp lookout.
They're bound to be disguised.
::Gadget
pointed to a large group of human and animals walking toward them, down the
dock, dressed like pirates::[/color]
[color=#8040FF]Gadget:
You mean like them?[/color]
[color=#FF0022]
Dale: Hey, great picture! Nah,
that's just some of the crew and other guests and all. It's Pirate Night on
board--all the crew and everybody not going to the Awards'll
probably be wearing pirate stuff. Hey, maybe I can get me a new pirate hat![/color]
[color=#800000]Chip: Dale, the last time you wore a pirate hat we
all nearly died. Just leave it all
alone. We're here to keep things safe. Just stay focused. [/color]
[color=#FF8000]Tammy: Oh, Chipper!
[/color]
[color=#800000]::Tammy
rushed over, dressed as a pirate and hugged him. She put a pirate hat on over his hat::[/color]
[color=#FF8000]Tammy: I hope I'll get to dance with you after the
awards, Chipper![/color]
[color=#800000]Chip:
Not now, Tammy. We're watching out for anyone who might be after stealing the
Awards.[/color]
[color=#FF8000]
Tammy: Oh, you're just being
silly. Who's gonna be able to steal those trophies
and go anywhere with them on a boat in the middle of the ocean? Now I'm not
moving until you promise me a dance![/color]
[color=#800000]Chip:
Okay, okay, okay.[/color]
[color=#FF8000]Tammy:
Whee![/color]
[color=#800000]::She
kissed Chipper on the cheek::[/color]
[color=#FF8000]Tammy:
This is going to be such a great night. Oh look, there's
[color=#800000]::Dale
tapped Chip on the back::[/color]
[color=#FF0022]
Dale: Hey, you don't have to be
jealous anymore. You finally got a pirate hat, Captain Bligh! Hahahahahaha![/color]
[color=#800000]::Gadget
looked nervous suddenly::[/color]
[color=#8040FF]Gadget: Just remember guys, I know what a hammer is.[/color]
[color=#800000]Chip: What's that mean?[/color]
[color=#800000]::Gadget pointed
across the room as Lawhinie entered, with a rat by
her side, a dark gray rat with a chef's hat on::[/color]
[color=#408000]Monty:
Oooh, it's
that rat from Ratatooie or however you pronounce
it. I gotta
remember to share some of my cheese recipes with him![/color]
[color=#800000]::The
Rangers watched as Lahwhinie went by, who winked and
blew a kiss toward Chip. Tammy, who had been talking with
[color=#0000FF]Stormy:
Cap'n, this here ship's bigger than any pirate ship
I've even seen![/color]
[color=#0000BF]Jolly
[color=#0000FF]Stormy:
Where's that, Cap'n?[/color]
