Opening/Sailing to the New World (Lanahontas Version)

*(We open on a beautiful day in 1607 at a seaside port in London, England. At the port, a group of men in the form of the settlers are preparing to sail away on a ship called the Susan Constant, apparently to go to the new world. As they did, singing is heard)*

Settlers: (Voice-over) **In sixteen hundred seven**

**We sail the open sea**

**For glory, God, and gold**

**And the Virginia Company**

**For the New World is like heaven**

**And we'll all be rich and free**

**Or so we have been told**

**By the Virginia Company**

**So we have been told**

**By the Virginia Company**

*(Among the crew of settlers saying goodbye to their families is a 15 year old boy with short brown hair, green eyes, and is wearing a green long-sleeved jacket (With two white stripes above the elbow of the right sleeve, a white stripe on the left side of the jacket, and a black circle with a white number 10 on the left breast) over a black short-sleeved shirt, navy blue jeans, white socks, and black and white converse shoes. He is Ben Tennyson. With him are other two teenagers. The first teenager is a 15 year old girl with long red hip-length hair, green eyes, pink lips, and is wearing a navy blue long-sleeved cardigan sweater over a white long-sleeved collar-flapped, button-up shirt with the sleeves slightly rolled up, a gray miniskirt, burgundy stockings, and gray shoes. She is Gwen Tennyson, Ben's twin cousin. And the last teenager is a 16 year old boy with short black hair that is styled into a choppy mullet, dark brown eyes, and is wearing a black short-sleeved shirt over a gray long-sleeved shirt, dark slate blue jeans, white socks, and black combat-styled boots. He is Kevin Levin, Ben and Gwen's best friend. They are now bidding Ben's wife, Julie Yamamoto, goodbye, and she gave him a gold locket with their picture inside, which he accepted. Then they bade each other a silent goodbye again by kissing on the lips)*

Settlers: (Voice-over) **For glory, God, and gold**

**And the Virginia Company**

*(Then Ben, along with Gwen and Kevin, boarded the Susan Constant and met up with two men. The first man is tall, lanky, and half-bald with a crooked nose, short black hair, black sideburns, and is wearing a brown newsboy cap, a dark brown long-sleeved jacket over a light brown long-sleeved turtleneck shirt, dark brown pants, and brown shoes. He is Jasper Badun, the most intelligent of the Badun brothers. And the last man is short, fat, and also half-bald with a crooked nose, short black hair, black sideburns, and is wearing a black newsboy cap, a forest green long-sleeved jacket over an olive green long-sleeved turtleneck shirt, forest green pants, and black shoes. He is Horace Badun, Jasper's dim-witted little brother. Suddenly, they and the settlers saw, to their surprise and happiness, a male figure approach the Susan Constant, ready to board. The figure is a 6 year old boy with short brown neck-length hair, white buckteeth, freckles on his cheeks, and wearing a light green baseball cap turned backwards, a teal green short-sleeved shirt (With an image of a dark teal green splotch on the front) over a black long-sleeved shirt, pale turquoise socks, black pants, and white shoes. Everyone recognized him as....)*

Horace: Hey, look! Is that Skippy Anderson?

Jasper: That's him, all right. The famous explorer that ever lived.

Ben: Captain Skippy Anderson! I've heard some amazing stories about him.

Gwen: Me too!

Kevin: Me three!

Horace: (To Skippy) Are you coming on this voyage, too?

Jasper: Of course he is, you half-wit!

Gwen: Who else wouldn’t?

Kevin: Yeah.

*(Skippy boarded the Susan Constant via a cannon being hoisted onto the ship. Then he came up to the five with confidence)*

Jasper: (To Horace) We won't be able to fight any savages without Skippy. *(To Skippy)* Right?

Skippy: (Giving a thumbs up) That's right. I'm not about to let you boys have all the fun.

*(Then a horse-drawn carriage arrived at the port. And after it stopped in front of a row of lined soldiers, five figures emerged from the carriage. The first figure is a 30 year old man with short crewcut-like black and gray hair and a tiny black skinny mustache, wearing a yellow long-sleeved hunter shirt with the sleeves rolled up, brown taped wristbands, a red neck tie, a brown belt loop around the torso, a brown belt around the shirt, dark yellow pants, and brown and light brown shoes, and sometimes carried a two-barrel gun. He is William Clayton, or simply Clayton, captain of the settlers. The second figure is a 12 year old boy with three black stringed hair sticking out underneath a black sockhat with white stripes on each side and a gap between the middle of the top teeth, wearing a red-orange short-sleeved shirt, purple shorts, red socks, and blue shoes. He is Edd, or Double D, Clayton's partner, and although he follows Clayton's orders, he is normally kind at times. The third figure is a light yellow-skinned 12 year old with stubby black stringed hair on top of his head and a black monobrow, wearing a red and white striped short-sleeved shirt underneath a green long-sleeved jacket with white lines on the sleeves, blue pants, white socks, and black shoes. He is Ed, Double D, Clayton's other partner and Double D's friend. The fourth figure is a pink-skinned 12 year old with three long black stringed hair, wearing a yellow short-sleeved bowling shirt with a red vertical line and purple collar rims and purple sleeve rims, light blue pants with a white yo-yo string sticking out of the left side pocket, and red shoes. He is Eddy, Clayton's other partner and Double D and Ed’s other friend. And the last figure is a male Basset hound with white fur with brown spots on his ears, back, head, and tail, a dark brown nose, and a long, pink tongue, and wearing a light blue dog collar with a gold license. He is Toby. After emerging, they boarded the Susan Constant)*

Settlers: (Voice-over) **On the beaches of Virginny**

**There's diamonds like debris**

**There's silver rivers flow**

**And gold you pick right off a tree**

**With a nugget for my Winnie**

**And another one for me**

**And all the rest will go**

**To the Virginia Company**

*(Once Clayton's group is on board, the crew shouted and waved goodbye to the people on the port as the Susan Constant sailed away for the new world)*

Settlers: (Voice-over) **It's glory, God, and gold**

**And the Virginia Company**

*(Two days later on their sailing across the Atlantic Ocean, the Susan Constant soon got caught in a seastorm and the crew is scrambling around, keeping the ship sailing strong against the powerful storm winds)*

Settler 1: Full anchor release!

Settler 2: Come on, lads, come on!

Gwen: Give me a hand, someone!

Settler 1: Watch out!

Kevin: Faster! She's taking up more water!

Settler 2: Look out!

*(At the cannon, Ben is frantically tightening the ropes around the cannons. Seeing the ropes starting to give away, he called out to Skippy, who is on top of one of the sails to keep it steady)*

Ben: Skippy! Get down here! The cannons are breaking loose!

*(Hearing him and noticing, Skippy leapt back onto the deck via a lifeline rope and rushed over to Ben's aid)*

Ben: (To a settler) Reef the topsails!

Settler 3: Aye, sir!

*(Skippy then assisted Ash in tightening the ropes around the cannons tightly)*

Skippy: (To another settler) Steady on the course! *(To Ben)* It's all right, Ben, we'll get her tied off!

*(Then they see more seawaves splashing around them powerfully)*

Settler 2: Say your prayers, lads!

*(Then one wave splashed onto the deck, making the settlers brace themselves)*

Settler 3: Look out!

*(Noticing the water splashing at them as soon as they tightened the cannons, Skippy and Ben braced themselves)*

Gwen: Ben, watch out!

*(But the water's powerful current was too powerful that it knocked Ben off his feet and swept him overboard, much to the crew's shock and concern)*

Ben: Hey!

Kevin: Man overboard!

Ben: Help!

Gwen: Stay your course! He's lost.

Ben: Wait, help!

*(Not wanting to leave Ben out to drown at sea, Skippy got determined, grabbed a lifeline rope, quickly tied it around his waist, and darted towards the edge)*

Skippy: (To a settler, handing the other end of his lifeline) Pull the pin!

Settler 2: Aye, sir!

*(After the settler tied the other line onto the railing, Skippy then dove into the sea after Ben, much to Gwen, Kevin, Jasper, Horace, and the crew's shock and concern)*

Horace: Skippy!

Jasper: Are you crazy?!

*(In the seawater, Skippy reached Ben and grabbed him)*

Skippy: Hang on, Ben. I've got you.

*(Just as Skippy preparing to climb back on board with Ben in his arms, the lifeline's other end on the railing snapped and almost fell towards the ocean if it weren't for Horace grabbing it upon seeing it snap)*

Horace: Quick, the rope!

*(Then Gwen, Kevin, and Jasper joined Horace in holding onto the rope and pulling Skippy and Ben back to the Susan Constant)*

Kevin: Heave!

*(A wave crashed over Skippy and Ben, sinking them underwater, but Gwen, Kevin, Jasper, and Horace continued to fight the waves' currents and pull Skippy and Ben back to them)*

Jasper: Come on, guys, pull!

*(Skippy and Ben emerged at the surface thanks to Gwen, Kevin, Jasper, and Horace continuing to pull the rope, this time with more of the settlers helping out)*

Jasper: Pull!

Horace: Put your backs into it!

Kevin: Pull, pull!

Gwen: (To Skippy and Ben) Hang on!

*(Then thanks to all the pulling they mustered, Skippy and Ben are safely back on board the Susan Constant as the storm calmed down around them. As everyone recovered, they chuckled a bit, glad to see Skippy and Ben safely back on board. Skippy then untied the lifeline from his waist)*

Jasper: (To Skippy and Ben, noogieing them) You lucky guys, you!

Skippy: (Sarcastically) Well, that was refreshing.

Horace: (Agreeing in sarcasm) Sure was.

Kevin: Well done, Skippy.

Gwen: Of course.

Skippy: You'd all do the same for me.

*(Jasper, Horace, Ben, Gwen, Kevin, and the settlers clamored in agreement happily. Then they see Clayton, the Eds, and Toby arrive on the deck. Although Clayton was giving a nonchalant look and the Eds were looking in confusion, Toby, however, was the only one who was concerned)*

Clayton: Trouble on deck?

Double D: Everything alright?

Ed: What’s going on?

*(Hearing them, the crew straightened themselves out)*

Ben: (Upon noticing them) Oh, Governor Clayton!

Ed: What happened?

Eddy: We heard you screaming down there.

Clayton: (To the Eds) Let me handle this. *(To Skippy)* What was the trouble?

Skippy: Ben fell overboard, sir.

Ben: But Skippy, my cousin, and the others saved me thankfully.

Clayton: (Nonchalant) Thank heavens they've been successfully retrieved.

*(Then he nods at Skippy)*

Clayton: Well done, Skippy.

Skippy: Thank you, Sir.

*(Then Clayton turned to the settlers)*

Clayton: Don’t lose heart, men. It won’t be long before we reach the new world, and remember what awaits us there; Freedom....

Double D: Lots of freedom!

Clayton: Prosperity....

Ed: And lots of prosperity!

Eddy: (Whispering flatly to Double and Ed) True on the freedom and prosperity.

*(The other Eds nod in agreement flatly as Clayton continued)*

Clayton: The adventure of our lives. You are the finest crew England has to offer and nothing, not wind or rain or a thousand bloodthirsty savages shall stand in our way. Carry on, men!

*(The settlers cheered a bit and then resumed their posts as Clayton's group returned to their cabin)*

Double D: A stirring oration, Sir. I’m sure the men were most exhilarated.

Eddy: (Shrugs) I'm sure they are.

Ed: After all, who cares about glory, God, gold, and the Virginia Company?

Eddy: The settlers do, Ed.

*(Clayton nodded in agreement with a evil smug smirk)*

Clayton: Let us hope so. I’ll need those witless peasants to dig up *my* gold, *(Looks at Toby)* won’t I, guys?

*(Toby happily barked in agreement. Unknown to Clayton and Toby, the Eds just secretly rolled their eyes in annoyance at what they just said. For it turned out the reason they don't like Clayton is because he is a greedy selfish man who cares only for fortune and glory and wanting to become rich for himself instead of showing interest of discovering the New World. Back on the deck, Skippy, Ben, Gwen, Kevin, Jasper, and Horace, and the settlers are working, chatting away)*

Gwen: This New World’s going to be great, Skippy, guys.

Ben: I’m going to get a pile of gold, build me a big house for my wife, and if any savage tries to stop me, I’ll blast him.

Kevin: My sentiments exactly!

Skippy: (Shrugs, gently pats Ben's shoulder) You just worry about that fortune of yours, Ben. Leave the savages to me.

Horace: You think they’ll give us much trouble?

Jasper: Not as much trouble as Skippy’ll give them!

*(Then they sang a bit as Jasper grabbed a mop nearby, placed a feather on top of it, and pretended to be an Indian, using the mop as his puppet)*

Settlers: **We'll kill ourselves an Indian**

Skippy: **Or maybe two or three**

*(Skippy then grabbed a sword, chopped the mop in half, and then stabbed a cork from a ale barrel nearby, opening it and making it spill wine out, resulting the settlers to fill their cups with some wine)*

Skippy and settlers: **We're stalwart men and bold**

**Of the Virginia Company**

*(Then Skippy, Ben, Gwen, and Kevin climbed onto the crow's nest and enjoyed the view as the settlers continued their work on deck)*

Ben: What do you suppose the new world will look like?

Gwen: Yes, what?

Kevin: (Eagerly) Tell us!

Skippy: Like all the others, I suppose. I’ve seen hundreds of new worlds, guys. What could possibly be different about this one?

Settlers: **It's glory, God, and gold**

**And the Virginia Company**

*(The song over, they continued their sailing towards the New World, hoping to see what awaits them besides the gold they are after)*
