Comic 5

Time to pay bird! Using your pirate super strength, you lift the cage over your head with one arm, ready to smash it through the wall, crushing the foul fowl within.

Wait a second...pirates don't have super strength.

The cage suddenly becomes very heavy and unwieldy as you realize this sad truth, and you're able to weakly chuck it against the wall before your arm's strength gives out. You miss the wall completely, and the cage comes crashing to floor, shaking the entire cabin and everything in it. Shiprot and Scurvy, what's that cage made of?

Amazingly, a part of the cage breaks open. The parrot darts out before you can even say "shiver me timbers, stop you feathered fiend!"

"FORGOT HIS LOST LENORE"

You fall backward as the parrot dives at you, landing squarely on your barnacled behind.

"ONCE UPON A MIDNIGHT DREARY"

The bird circles the room once before flying out the door, which seems to have shaken open with the small small scale earthquake caused by the cage.

"NEVERMORE"

Oh look, he left you a nice present in your eye. Wasn't that thoughtful.

  1. The bird is a Ninja Construct and therefore must be BBQ'ed.

  3. Chase the bird outside, where you trip over the barrell of grog your crew left outside your door.

  4. ... Nobody else is going to say it, so I will...

    Desperate for Grog, you make sure the present in your eye isn't Grog. It isn't.

  5. The parrot gathers bird army to strike back. Attempted murder is no light matter amongst birds.

  6. Oh, clearly your name must be Poe and you taught your bird to recite The Raven, for when you forget.
