Producer Samantha Lewis stated in an interview that Pirates was the most expensive pornographic film made to date,^[3] with a reported budget of well over $1 million.^[1][2]

A sequel, Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge, was made on an even bigger budget of $8 million, and it is considered the most expensive porn film ever produced.^[4]

Plot[edit]

In 1763, Captain Edward Reynolds is hunting pirates, or at least trying to do so. He does not consider himself a great commander, and neither does most of his crew. Only his first officer Jules believes in him. When they save a young woman named Isabella from drowning, she tells them that her husband's ship has been destroyed by the feared Captain Victor Stagnetti and his crew of cutthroat pirates.

Reynolds and his crew go hunting for Stagnetti, who tries to find a map that leads to a powerful secret on an island somewhere in the Caribbean Sea. Stagnetti finds the secret 'staff' unlocked by Isabella's husband Manuel.

After the crew escapes the spawn of darkness summoned by Stagnetti, their ship engages Stagnetti's in battle, ending Stagnetti's reign as a pirate.

Production[edit]

The production was shot using high definition digital video cameras and featured over 300 special effects shots.^[5] It also included an original music score, later released on a separate soundtrack CD, and was mastered in Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound. Several scenes were shot on board the Bounty II, a replica of HMS Bounty, in St. Petersburg, Florida.^[6] The owners of the ship were not aware of the true nature of the film as they were advised that the film being made was a 'Disney-type pirate film for families',^[7] a mistaken notion that would continue in video stores after its release.^[8]

The film was initially released as a three-disc DVD set (the movie on a standard video DVD, the movie again in a high definition (720P) Windows Media format,^[9] and a special features disc) priced as high as $70. An edited R-rated version of the film was released on DVD on July 11, 2006.^[10] Digital Playground also released an Original Motion Picture Soundtrack CD, a rarity among adult video releases.

The film was also released on Blu-ray Disc (containing only xxx version) and HD DVD as one of the first high-definition adult releases on an optical disc format.

Sequel[edit]

Evan Stone reported on the extra DVD that there was going to be a sequel. In January 2007, it was reported that a sequel would be produced, directed by Joone and entitled Pirates II.^[11] A first teaser trailer was presented during the 2007 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada.^[12]

In March 2008, Digital Playground announced that the sequel would star Belladonna along with Jesse Jane, Evan Stone and many other performers from the first movie, and that it would be released in September 2008.^[13]The second movie was released on September 26, 2008, under the title Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge.

Reviews[edit]

RogReviews called it 'the most talked about adult movie of the year'.^[14]

The film set a record by winning 11 AVN Awards (see section below).

The New York Times described the film as 'a relatively high-budget story of a group of ragtag sailors who go searching for a crew of evil pirates who have a plan for world domination. Also, many of the characters in the movie have sex with one another.'^[15]

A/N: Hey, how you doin'? Yeah, someone's been rewatching 'Friends' on Netflix . . . if you haven't seen it, you NEED to check it out! This is Goldie here, but it comes from both of us when we say: thank you so much for the reads, favorites, follow, and a special thanks to MyFandoms7 for being our first reviewer! We're so glad you're enjoying this so far!

Now, this chapter includes the death of Milah, so that may be considered a trigger warning. I know what it feels like, because my dad actually unexpectedly passed away about two years ago when I was two weeks away from turning thirteen years old (I just turned fifteen). So, this was a little hard for me to work on, but writing is all about drawing from one's own experiences to create something meaningful, and I hope our combined efforts was enough to bring such meaning to you readers.

Now, her death aligns basically how it happened in the show, but the plot will change by the end of this chapter. Anyway, without much further ago, please read, review, and enjoy! Thanks so much! :D

Chapter 1: World off Its Axis

One year later . . .

Ten years after birth

Melody's Perspective

'Surrender, you wench!' my brother shouted as he gallantly leaped forward to block the downward swipe of my sword. We were below deck so our mother couldn't scold us for our harsh language.

'Never, gremlin, not when I'm winning!' I twirled in and elbowed him in the chest, knocking him back a few steps.

His brown eyes sparkled with excitement and his cheeks were red from exertion. 'That's 'Captain' to you.' He dodged another one of my attacks and nearly struck the sword out of my hands. I moved back to gain some distance from him.

'In your wildest dreams,' I teased and his dark eyebrows rose in a way that we both inherited from our father. He took offense to that.

Jack propped himself up on one of the barrels so he could pompously look down at me and I rolled my eyes. 'One day, I will be the captain of the Jolly Roger and mark my words 'cause I'll make you my cabin girl!'

I took a mighty kick at the barrel and he toppled over, landing on his side. His dark brown, almost black hair fell in a flop over his eyes. Embarrassed, he scrambled to his feet and rose his sword to the ready. 'I'll have my very own ship, brother, because I don't need one handed down to me! I can get my own, thank you very much.' I smiled smugly at him as he searched for an appropriate response.

'Well, sister,' he sneered, 'it won't be anywhere near as brilliant as the Jolly Roger!' Our battle commenced, more fiercely this time so there wasn't any room to trash talk.

There was a noise, then, a noise that startled us out of our game. A strange voice yelling above deck- yelling at our momma.

Uh uh, I thought angrily. I don't THINK so.

Jack heard it the same time as me and growled, 'He'll regret the day he was born.' I strongly agreed. Jack was very protective of his family, as was I.

Sword in hands, we took the stairs up two at a time and I steeled myself for confrontation. I was almost to the top, a little ahead of Jack, when a crewman placed a hand on my head and pushed me down to a squatting position. I looked at him questioningly and he placed a finger to his lips. He looked rather frightened, so I signaled for Jack to stay down next to me.

I peeked up from the top of the staircase to see an odd, reptilian man covered in what looked like were scales. A crocodile, yes, that was what he looked like! Jack and I exchanged a look of sheer disgust- the thing wasn't even human, yet he was yelling at our momma!

He was shouting at Momma, saying something about a person named Bae. The man was clearly insane because he said something about that person being their son. I was deeply confused. Turning to Jack, I mouthed, 'Who's Bae?' but he only shrugged, equally bewildered.

Anger boiled inside of me as he continued on with his harsh words. Nobody talked to my momma that way- I didn't know why my daddy didn't defend her. So, I did. I scrambled to my feet and ran over to stand guard in front of my momma. 'Don't talk to my momma like that!'

Jack was hot on my tail and jumped in front of the both of us, sticking out his sword defensively. 'Yeah, leave her alone!'

The monster's eyes stretched out as wide as they could go. 'And who the hell might you two be?'

Rude, I thought. 'I'm her daughter, you slimy crocodile! So bugger off!' A firm hand dug into my shoulder and I glanced up to see my daddy giving me a warning look. He pulled me closer into him and reached out for Jack to reign in, but Jack dodged his hand.

'And I'm her son,' said Jack proudly. 'So I'm going to protect her . . . from people like you!' Momma looked down at us both with honor only a parent could feel and I swelled up inside.

The crocodile's expression turned into something unmistakably dangerous and I hid my face into my daddy's leather coat. Even Jack fearfully backed up into Daddy, and Daddy placed a hand on both of our shoulders comfortingly.

'You've had more children?' the crocodile asked my momma, the deadly undertone clearly audible. 'With a different man?'

'Yes, I have.' She stood boldly and without fear and I couldn't help but smile proudly- that was my mother. But what in the world did he mean by more children?!

Pirates 2 Stagnetti S Revenge Part 2

Then it occurred to me. Different man? Implying that . . . she was once with him? I scrunched up my nose in disgust; how could my mother have ever been with a man- no, creature like that? Was that what he meant by their son?

The crocodile snarled, 'You let him go and had more children. You let him go.'

My head was reeling. He was acting like my mother was the bad one, but no, it was obviously him! How dare he accuse my mother of being a bad person? He was wrong!

Momma tearfully replied, 'My misery was clouding my judgement and I will never apologize for having my children.' I smiled once more, so, so proud of my mother.

Medusa S Revenge Part 2

Ignoring the last part, the crocodile hissed, 'And why were you so miserable?' I mentally replied, Because, idiot, she was with your scaly self!

She leaned in and said with as much feeling as she could muster, 'Because I never loved you!'

There was a single moment of silence, tension and raging emotions charging the air. My heart beat so quickly and loudly that I was positive that everyone could hear it- or at the very least my daddy and brother, because of their close proximity.

And then, I witnessed the worst thing I had ever seen before in my short life. I had seen raiding, plundering, the bloodiest of sword fights . . . but they didn't come close to this. The evil crocodile shoved his hand forward into my momma's chest and ripped out her heart.

'MOMMA!' Jack and I screeched in terror the same time my daddy shouted, 'Milah!' I, along with Daddy and Jack, dove forward in a futile attempt to attack the beast but he sent the three of us flying back into pillars, magically wrapping ropes around us. Our swords clanged to our feet.

'Momma!' I choked out, fighting desperately against my restraints. Hot tears streamed down my face and I screamed her name, screamed for the beast to let me go, screamed for my daddy to save her. . . . I just kept on screaming my head off as Jack raged with his threats of harm and death.

Daddy, Jack, and I managed to break through the ropes with a deadly sharp hook Daddy grabbed and we rushed over to her as she collapsed, her pure, beautiful heart resting in that beast's grimy claws. 'Give that back!' Jack shouted at the crocodile. He pointedly ignored my twin.

Tears leaked out of Momma's crystal blue eyes as she whispered, 'I love you all, Killian, Jack, Mellie . . . so much.'

'I love you, too, Momma!' I cried, burying my face into her thick ebony hair, kissing her on the cheek.

'I love you!' Jack said as strongly as he could, grabbing her hand. He brought it up to his lips and pressed his lips against the back of it.

Daddy took her other hand and whispered his 'I love you,' as well. This wasn't fair . . . why were we saying goodbye? Why us? What did we ever do to that awful, awful beast?

I frantically clutched at the silky fabric of her dress to have something of hers to hold onto and that's when I felt it.

Dust . . . no, it couldn't be, no, NO! I snapped my head up and let out a strangled shriek as the dust of what was once my momma's heart diffused into the gentle breeze. 'No, MOMMA!' I shouted at the top of my lungs, my voice cracking somewhere on the way out.

Jack was shell-shocked and beyond words, but I was hysterical. 'Momma! Momma, no, please!' I grabbed her roughly by her shoulders and shook her vigorously. 'Momma, wake up! Just wake up, please. Please, you gotta wake up. No, you aren't dead, all right? You're just sleeping and you've gotta wake up because I can't live without you! Please, Momma!'

My heart crumpled along with hers. Her eyes were blank and staring into nothingness and I sobbed into her dress. I felt a hand resting on my back, my daddy's hand, but I was numb to his touch. Nothing and nobody could soothe me now.

Blood roared like a storming ocean in my ears. I could vaguely hear my daddy bellowing something, but I had only one thought on my mind now . . . avenge my momma. Jack and I shared a look of grief, determination, and resolve.

I glared at the crocodile with as much hate as I could possibly force into that one glower and my brother and I cried together, 'YOU KILLED MY MOMMA!'

We jumped for him like rabid animals, and I was fully intending to take his heart like he did to my momma . . . if the soulless beast even had one. His scaly hands connected with the side of my face and Jack's nose. I crashed into the side of the ship along with my twin, pain flaring up in my cheekbone and back.

I felt strangely detached from the scene that played before my next; I was in a daze. Daddy had never looked so furious or hurt, his eyes were chips of ice. Not only did the beast murder the love of his life, but he just struck his precious children- the only family he had left now.

The crocodile was demanding something of my daddy, but I didn't know what, though it had to be important because Daddy snarled, 'You'll have to kill me first!' His fist was clenched and I assumed that whatever the beast wanted, he was holding. No! I wanted to yell. Don't kill my daddy, too!

'Ah ah, that's not in the cards for you, sonny boy!' The crocodile swung down his sword and . . . sliced off my father's hand! I cried out in horror as he roared in agony, cradling his stump of a hand close to him. The gush of crimson from the wound was sickening. I watched in disgust as the crocodile gingerly picked up the hand as if it were some plaything.

'You disgusting, vile arse,' Jack sobbed, tears of fury rolling down his cheeks along with blood from his nose. If Momma had still been here, he would've got his mouth washed out with soap for that one.

It was excruciating to think like that . . . if Momma had still been here. She . . . she was gone, and she wasn't coming back. There would be no more memories to form with her, no more big happy family to take joy in. It was all over now and that forced a new wave of tears pouring out from my eyes.

The beast, ignoring my brother yet again, caressed the side of my daddy's neck with his sword, and murmured, 'Because I want you to suffer- like I did.' Hatred and rage boiled up inside me as one, and I viciously wished all the suffering on the world on the beast because however much he already had gone through, it wasn't enough.

I inwardly cheered as my daddy picked up the hook that had freed us and stabbed it into the crocodile's chest. I watched with satisfaction and malice, waiting for him to crumple to the ground in a puddle of blood or whatever liquid flowed through his monstrous veins.

But he didn't die. He just stood there, perfectly fine and intact, and plucked out the hook as if it were a splinter. 'Damn you,' I hissed under my breath. 'Damn you to the fiery pits of hell.' My wish for him to die a horrible, excruciating death was momentarily ruined.

'Killing me's going to be a lot harder than that, dearie,' he sneered and I found myself wondering why he seemed to call everyone that.

'Even demons can be killed,' my daddy managed to say courageously through his obvious pain. 'I will find a way!'

'Well, good luck living long enough,' he taunted, then turned to me. I cowered beneath his sadistic glare. 'Ah, the son and daughter of the traitor and pirate scum. You shouldn't exist, dearies.'

'Neither should you,' I growled back. 'You're a monster and a murderer and you'll never find happiness.' The crocodile only grinned down at me, but I could tell my last comment struck a chord in him.

Jack simply said, 'I'll use my existence to kill you!'

The crocodile recovered from his momentary slip of his guard. 'The both of you have fire, just like your dearly departed mother.' Don't you DARE mention my momma, you sick bastard!

'Don't you dare talk to my children!' Daddy roared, but there wasn't much he could do.

He turned his head to look at my daddy and sing-songed, 'I believe there is another way for you to suffer,' he giggled. 'Losing your children, of course.'

Jack and I blindly grasped each other's hands as Daddy's eyes stretched open as wide as they could go and he begged, 'NO! No, not them!'

'Ah, yes, this will do nicely,' the beast sighed happily. 'The traitor's lover and children ought to suffer as much as she.'

It wrenched my heart to see my daddy so helpless and broken at the same time. 'Please, anything but them. Kill me, rip out my heart and crush it to dust, just don't hurt them!' Daddy stretched out his arms and opened himself up for attack, slowly shutting his eyes at the same time as if he were resigning to his fate.

'Dad, no!' Jack protested valiantly, reaching out for my father as if he were right in front of us. 'We already lost Momma, I can't lose you too. I love you.'

When Daddy only opened his eyes to stare at us mournfully, still not budging on his life-ending decision, I insisted, 'Please, Daddy, don't do this! I can't bear to think of a world without you in it because I love you!'

Daddy's piercing blue eyes shimmered with unshed tears and the crocodile rolled his eyes with a huff. 'Now, did I say that you could take their place? No, I didn't, but you pirates never listen. I'm taking your children whether you like it or not, dearie. You might like to throw in your goodbyes because you'll never see each other again!' He sounded so terribly joyful as he uttered those soul-crushing words.

A single tear fell down my father's face as his shoulders lowered with sheer anguish. 'No . . . no, don't do this. They did nothing to you, they are INNOCENT!' Daddy made a mad dash for us, but the crocodile used his dark magic to fling him back and he landed with a dull thud onto the ship's deck.

So, this was true. The crocodile was going to kill us. The sound of our family's hearts breaking had to be audible to everyone around us. I sure could hear them, louder than anything else I'd ever heard. Daddy lifted up his head and the look on his face would haunt me for the rest of my life. The indescribable pain (both physical and emotional), the boundless fury, the grief a man felt as he witnessed his family being torn away from him right before his eyes.

'I love you both so much. My little pirates.' He managed to turn up the corners of his mouth through his hurt. 'Jack, my noble, heroic boy with nerves of steel and a heart of pure gold. Mellie, my fearless, daring girl with a fierce but brilliant spirit that can never be crushed. Be brave for me, please, be brave for me.'

'I won't let you down, Dad,' Jack said with remarkable grit. 'I will never let you down. Never. I'm your son and you gave me the courage to face this head on. I owe you everything.' Our father dipped his head with such intense pride.

Now, it was my time to say something meaningful that my daddy could remember us by. I sucked in a breath and racked my brain. 'I'll be brave 'till the end, for you. I'll die with honor, something this crocodile has never possessed.' I shot the beast the most venomous look I could muster, but he still let me continue. 'I'll die with honor because I'm your daughter, and death can never change that.'

We were all crying by this point and so much more could have been said, but our time was up. At least the crocodile was no longer smiling. 'I love you,' my brother and I chanted in unison, the emotion almost too unbearable for me to say it one more time. But we were his children and our daddy was courageous and strong, and thus, so were we.

'I love you, too,' Daddy ground out as if a knife were lodged in his chest. He would have preferred that to this in a heartbeat. 'My brave little pirates.'

Our eyes connected one final time and Jack and I whispered, 'Goodbye.'

We didn't get to hear his response because the crocodile waved his hand in a flourish and the beloved Jolly Roger disappeared from around us. Now, Jack and I were sitting in a small, damp little room with no windows and a small door. A tower. Daddy was gone.

There was filthy straw beneath me and a chamber pot in the corner, but that was it. I looked around in confusion and fear. What are we doing here?

'What are we doing here?' Jack echoed my thoughts vehemently. 'I thought he was going to kill us. Why are we here?'

'Maybe he changed his mind,' I said hopefully, but almost immediately the evil doubt set in. 'No, of course not. If he did, then we would be back with Daddy right now.' A strangled sob wracked my form. 'Jack, it isn't fair! Momma, sweet Momma . . . he killed her. He murdered her! And now we're never going to see Daddy again! How can he do this to us? How c-can he t-tear our worlds apart like . . . like we're nothing? N-nothing at all?' I couldn't continue because I was weeping too hard to speak.

Jack embraced me and pulled me against his chest, resting his chin comfortably on the crown of my head. Teardrops landed onto my hair, but I didn't mind. 'I don't know, Mellie. I didn't know anyone could be so evil. I didn't think it was possible, but I was wrong.'

The door swung open and I squinted my eyes as light flooded in. The crocodile, grinning wickedly at us, said, 'Yes, child, you were wrong. Now, your father has a desperate desire to kill me now, and he's going to want to live long enough to do so. So, I'm doing you a favor, dearies. You get to stay in here for eternity, never aging a single day. Ten years old forever. Have fun.'

With that, he slammed the door shut and I was alone with Jack, panicking. He couldn't mean that, could he? We would be trapped in this horrid little space for eternity? He was beyond cruel. Not only did he rip apart our lives and enjoy it, but he wouldn't even put us out of our misery- no, he had to let us stew in it and suffer for eternity.

'Let us out!' I screamed, pounding my fists on the door until they bled. 'Please, I'll do anything, just let us out! We didn't do anything wrong, you horrible, disgusting monster! LET US OUT!'

'I'LL KILL YOU!' Jack raged into the wood of the door when we realized my tactic wasn't working. 'I'LL FIND YOU AND END YOU!'

There was silence and we crumpled to the ground. How could anybody be so . . . inhuman? Was he once a good man? Or was he always like this: a shell of what he could be?

He did murder our momma, I thought darkly, fiddling with some of the dry straw beneath my fingers. And so we waited, for it was all we could do.

Together, but isolated from the rest of the world. Together . . . but alone.

A/N: So, what do you think? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Let us know!
