Ricardo Basco, Crewmate to Captain RedBeard of The Red Avenger.

RESULT! Billie-Jean is back!

So chuffed that they're still alive.

I just hope that they're not too cross with us.

Like I thought the reason why we couldn't find each other is because Billie-Jean found new friends.

And not that they think I abandoned them.

I said I was sorry and I didn't mean to ditch them.

Billie-Jean understood us luckily, they explained that they didn't know how to swim, so they couldn't get across.

Still feel proper bad though, If I knew, I would have tried to give them a hand.

To be fair, I saw that Billie-Jean did make some new friends. Some random Ant and a mermaid...

...which should be surprising to me but honestly not really.

Zombie Pirates and mermaids are kinda like a package deal. Which I know sounds weird but it makes doesn't it?

Now I was like thinking about this whilst not saying owt

To cut the awkwardness, I got me friend Shakira "Scarbelly" to meet Billie-Jean.

Billie-Jean seemed proper gobsmacked upon seeing Shakira.

"Oh moy, your skin and oiys, 'et's loike natting oi seen befoar." Billie-Jean couldn't hack it.

Shakira started laughing. "It's because I be a zombie ghost pirate!"

"Z-z-zombie?" Billie-Jean sounded like he doesn't even know what a zombie is. "Wat is a zombie?"

Shakira was confused by Billie-Jean's confusion.

"Ye know when a corpse reanimates and becomes a member of the living dead?" Shakira said that this explanation was the most basic away to explain what a zombie is but honestly, it's proper confusing.

Billie-Jean, proper though inside their mind palace. Then the penny drops and a lightbulb rises for Billie-Jean.

"Awight! Oi understand, a zombie is loike Frankenstein's monster, right?" When they asked this to Shakira, her eyes went proper big.

"Sure..." Shakira seemingly agreed. Well if she's okay with it then I am.

"Oh dear, apologeese for moi bahd mannurs, this is moi friend...Aqua!" Billie-Jean showed us Aqua Jones, who was doing a slight dance to show herself off.

However what I wanna know is...why is she stuck inna water barrel? Asking both Billie-Jean and Aqua this.

Aqua said "Please calm yourself, I'm a mermaid. I need the water to stay alive. I gave Billie-Jean all the steps to help other merfolk like me."

I just noticed how much of Aqua's looks stood out to us.

She had big fat hair long dreadlocks that were different colours, it was mostly either green, blue, lime or cyan.

Her tats, were same colour along her tube top and her meremaid, tail...or fin?

Yeah to be honest, I don't do great with describing.

"How be yer hunt for the eight crimson pieces of eight?" Shakira asked Billie-Jean and Aqua Jones.

Billie-Jean started to look like how I feel when I forget me homework. "That's a good point. We 'aven't seen the soight of one yhet."

Aqua Jones came to the rescue with. "Billie-Jean helped me back to health. Give them a break please."

Shakira seemed surprised "Oh...please don't talk it like I be orderin' you around, we be wonderin' if you two can weather three more crewmates"
