Hoist the Flag

Being the infamous fairy tale โ€˜Jackโ€™ isnโ€™t as glamorous as it sounds. My entire life has been a series of memesโ€”before they were even invented!

My current โ€˜Jackโ€™ title is companion to the Ice Queenโ€”who spent the first couple of years singingย that songโ€”but my sentence here is almost over. Iโ€™m going to make a run for it to retire with my shaker of salt on an island in the Caribbean while I drink piรฑa coladas.

Before I leave, I realize my heart wasnโ€™t as frozen as I thought and I have to save Queenie from her evil sister. We make a plan to escape together after the Yule celebration, but even that falls victim to my legendary bad luck.

Enter two bumbling pirates who were playing Robin Hood, a monkey, and a sea voyage to our permanent hiding placeโ€ฆonly to trip over a bottle on the beach that contains a mysterious map to a legendary graveyard filled with famous treasure the moment we arrive.

My spill draws the attention of our pirate friends and two other local hotties who canโ€™t resist damsels in distress.

Insert eyeroll here.ย 

My girl and I didnโ€™t ask to be conscripted on an adventure with two shifter pirates, a masseuse, a demi-god, and a merman who think weโ€™re on the menu, but here we are.

Maybe I should have taken the Ice Queenโ€™s musical advice when I first arrived ?

How did Olโ€™ Blue Eyes put it? Thatโ€™s life?

Really, how could I know blackmailing some random pirate hotties into letting us hitch a ride to Tenerife would go so wrong?ย 

No one expects an Aqueous Mission!

Fate has a funny way of testing us, and our first stop on this unexpected journey is none other than the Bermuda Triangle. The motley crew of The Salty Swallowโ€”Jorgie, Levi, Kael, Dash, and Aceโ€”swear up and down that theyโ€™ll get me to that elusive magical hotspot, but I canโ€™t help but have my doubts.

Because whatโ€™s a quest for the God of the Sea without a shipwreck, right?

If we can navigate these treacherous waters without sinking, avoid the ire of the cantankerous Captain Jorgie, and prevent Queenie from adopting one of these charming scallywags, I might just have to eat my hat.

Fortunately, the cargo hold is stocked with more rum than food, and with these pirates, thatโ€™s saying something.

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!
