The night sky was dark and its only light was coming the stars above. From inside a small ship was the captian and a few of his companions.

"If we head straight up north, we have a good chance of catching the upward currant."

"Yar. Great eye, Sniffles." Russell said.

He traced his hooked arm along the dotted red line of the map as it sat on the table. The only other person in the Captain's quarters was Disco Bear, lazily looking at his reflection and was trying not to be annoyed by Russell's orders.

"After all, it's been a few days since we've seen land." He continued, "The only other things we need for directions are a broken compass Lumpy brought and that stupid parrot from Oyster Island that followed us here."

Russell pointed in a corner at a rainbow colored parrot that sat on a perch.

"Squawk! Walk the plank!" It shouted.

Disco Bear whipped out the dagger in his leather belt and aimed it at the bird.

"WHAT DID THE BIRD SAY!?" He barked. Sniffles quickly snatched his dagger and placed it on the table.

"He didn't mean it, only saying what on his mind."

"Yeah..right.."

"But it's high time that we call it a night. Inform the rest of the crew."

"Will do." Sniffles replied.

"Man, I need some shuteye myself." Disco said.

That was when the door opened up and a flash of pink came running in. It took a mighty leap in the air and it landed gracefully onto Russell's back. He screamed, falling down on his face. The otter looked up to see that it was only Giggles, a red bandanna wrapped around her head and a black vest on her body that matched the torn skirt around her waist.

"Hi!" she chimed.

"Yar! What ye be doing outside the cabins!" Russell shouted, blush rising on his whiskers cheeks.

The chipmunk was clinging to him as he struggled to get up. After he was back on his peg legs, she jumped off and smiled happily with her arms behind her back.

"This trip is so much fun! We'll be hunting for gold and gems and other things!"

Russell felt angry and somewhat embarrassed for the way she was startling him, but he tried to keep a strong composure. What was strange was how Giggles's eyes looked a bit crossed. However, she looked so innocent when she smiled and he could never stay this furious at her goofy face.

"Y-you know very well that the captain of this ship gives all orders!" He said as he stuttered a bit.

"I'm just so-*hic*-happy to be here!" Giggles said.

Did she just hiccup?, Russell thought. He never brought any alcohol on the ship, but it could be anything else..

"I'm a party animal myself, so that makes two of us." Disco smirked, making Sniffles glare at him. Giggles turned to the bear and another weird grin rose on her face.

"Huh? Disco, Darling~!" she purred.

"Me? darling?"

"What be going on, young lady?" Russell added, "I demand answers!"

But suddenly Giggles ran over and wrapped her arms around him. "I know, right!" She chirped. She began to lean in and to what made Russell's jaw drop, gave Disco a long kiss on his right cheek.

The kiss made Disco's cheek flare into a vivid shade of red, envying the bow on Giggles's head.

His left eye twitched while his right eye blinked once. It only lasted for a while before his nose bleed, squirting out a graceful stream of blood in mid-air. Sniffles and Russell dropped to floor as they dodged its spray. It hit the wall and created a messy splatter that dripped down the floorboards.

Disco didn't loose a lot of blood, but his fur looked a bit pale after he soon fainted.

Giggles snorted a few times as she wiped a droplet of blood off her cheek. Russell's only eye rolled as her body stumbled a then Petunia, dressed in a black dress with white stripes and an eyepatch on her right eye, burst through the door.

"Thank goodness! I was looking for Giggles everywhere." She sighed.

Meanwhile Giggles looked at Russell with a dizzy look on her face.

"Yar..next time we board the seven seas, don't be loading so much on the root beer tanks." he grumbled.

"N..no way.." she said, her voice sounding tired," I like to...have fun, alright..."

Her eyelids began to droop as she let out a soft yawn. She slowly rested her head onto Russell's shoulder, forcing his blush to fade from a soft pink to a heavy crimson. Her arms draped over his waist and she murmured quietly as she smiled.

"Nighty night..." she whispered.

The otter didn't really have the guilty urge to go ahead and wake her up. It truly made his heart melt to see the soft glow of her tiny face. Russell gently lifted her body up in a bridal fashion, cautiously turning the hook of his other arm to the side. He noticed that Giggles had drifted into a quiet slumber.

As he began walking her out of Captain's Quarter s and up the stairway that lead to the inmates cabin, he looked up to see that the moon was glittering brightly. Thousands of stars reflected the beauty of Giggles's face by the time he reached the door.

The others in the cabin were sound asleep, giving Russell the perfect timing to tuck her bed in the bunk bed above Nutty, who drooling on his pillow. Russell sat down on the side of Giggle's bed as his normal paw stroked her left shoulder. She looked even more peaceful and innocent than he remembered.

"Sleep tight, my little mermaid..." He purred, kissing her cheek.

Pulling the covers over her body, he smiled and decided to head back to Captain's Quarters to tend Disco's nose.

The moment after closing the cabin door, Russell didn't get to see the blush on Giggles's face.

Except, it wasn't from the root beer...
