* TheRealMe attempts to swim toward the departing pirate ship, but finds that the weight of the soaked black ribbons is slowing him down. As he pauses for a moment to catch his breath, a menacing shape looms up in front of him. SHARK! The shark’s maw encompasses TheRealMe’s head and shoulders. TheRealMe’s arms and legs flail about in an almost comical display. *
MMMRRRRRPH!!

* TheRealMe relaxes. Though he still feels pressure around his chest and back, his attire of black ribbons seems to be protecting him from the shark that is currently attempting to bite off his head and upper torso. Of course, there is the matter of breathing, and of whatever disgusting things might be found inside a shark. *

**jake7 steps through the portal just in time to hear TRM ask if anyone knows how to swim...*
I don't! **she says, panicked. As she freefalls towards the ocean, she finds her remote and presses the force field button**
I really hopes this works in water!!
**The force-field surrounds her just as she hits the water. It goes staticky for a second, then stays on strong.**
WHEW!
**jake7 bobs about the ocean waves in clear force-field bubble.**
Um. I have two problems now:
1 - I get motion sick.
2 - I have no way of controlling where I'm going...
**The ocean current slowly starts to float jake7 away from the rest of the others**
Guys? Help?

Argh, what to do first?
Help TRM with the shark? Save Jake7 as she drifts away? Help everyone OUT of the water?
Uh-oh, the natives are getting restless!
*she points as a canon in turned towards the people in the water*
Hmm..I guess it's time to play Peter Pan!

*swims and watches as everyone begins to leave the pool*
*Shouts up at Serenity* Hey you're coming in after all? Oh good, just a warning the waters a bit cold.Gosh. Looks like someone forgot to turn on the water heaters again.
*Watches as the other people all swim towards the ship and attempt to get out of the pool* Wonder where they are all going in such a hurry?
Ah well. I still need a bit of exercise might as well get in a few laps.
*swims one lap*
Phew. Well that's enough of that. I wish I'd brought my floatie. Oh well will you look at that! Bluefishie's bluefishes have gotten soooooooo big! Still their kinda cute.
Hmm.. they look a little cranky. I bet they just want to be petted. *Calls here pretty fishie, here fishie, fishie...*

/me peers intently at those still left standing in the room, shrugs, and charges headlong at the portal with banana brandished
/me hurriedly peels his banana as he realizes he is plunging to his almost certain wetness
/me uses the banana, peels and all, as an improvised parasol, slowly gliding down to the others he so foolishly followed fiercely and gasps as a gust of ocean scented wind carries him into the barrel of the cannon
umm, hi *scratches his head nervously* will you be my friend?

*PR climbs many times and slips, but eventually makes it aboard. He then looks back down to see how he can help.*
Jake7! Oh no! *Thinks!* Erm...what to do, what to do?! *He runs through a group of pirates, seemingly unnoticed then returns with a rope, and he casts it off the side of the ship, gripping one end. The other makes a splash as it lands next to Jake7's bubble. There is a moment, the PR realises, Jake7 can't actually grab the rope.*
Oops.

TheRealMe marvels at the odd yet profound things that come to mind when one is delerious from lack of oxygen while simultaneously being chewed upon by a Great White Shark.
For example: If Ath and Serenity are brother and sister, then why does she have angelic wings and he does not?
Another example: If piffleponies pop into existence whenever somebody wants one, why is it necessary to breed them?
Or another: What ratio of sane vs loopy people do you need on your team before being able to successfully execute a rescue mission?

**jake7 sees a rope fly from the ship and land next to the bubble and then notices PR's crestfallen look as he realizes she can't grab the rope.**
Hey, PR!, try flipping this rope to TRM! You might startle the sharks and make them go away. At the very least, you can try to drag TRM to safety...
**jake7 thinks about what she just said for a second and realizes that might not be the best plan. The sharks might chase after TRM and that would be bad.**
Um, PR? Never mind dragging TRM, see if you can lasso a shark. Try dragging the lassoed shark around and see if the other sharks will follow!
Since Serenity is flying about, she might be able to push me closer while getting in a good position to snatch TRM while you're distracting the sharks...

Hmm. Well. Okay. I think I can do that.
*Serenity flies over to Jake7, and lands atop the forcefield bubble. Using her wings for balance, she "walks" the bubble towards TRM.*
I hope this idea of yours works Jake7! Forcefields are very hard to walk on!
Ath: can you please try to get mai out of the water! Did she hit her head or go crazy or something?
