Opening/Sailing to the New World (Annahontas 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**

**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 skeleton of a human man with a physique highly reminiscent to that of a scarecrow, white bones, fully colored bright gold, green and purple markings on his skull, short straightened black hair with loose bangs, brown eyes, a black goatee, a gold tooth in his frontal teeth, and wearing a pale yellow straw boater hat, an indigo sleeveless formal vest, a red necktie, red, black, and white suspenders and torn-up light brown and black pinstriped pants held up by a pair of red, black, and white suspenders, and brown dress shoes. He is Hector Rivera. He is now bidding his wife, Mama Imelda Rivera, 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 Hector boarded the Susan Constant and met up with two anthro animals and one male mutant animal. The first male robot is a male robot that resembles a tall chicken with a silver body, black eyes, a dark gray marking on the upper part of his torso, a dark gray belt with a red buckle, a red chicken-like hair on his head, two red tail feathers, a red chicken goatee underneath a yellow beak, and yellow long chicken legs. He is Scratch. The second male robot is a male tank-like robot with teal armor, a small drill-like nose, two drills for hands, a silver antenna sticking out of the top of his head, black cat-like pupils, a yellow neck collar, a white clock-like meter on his belly, and silver tank wheels for legs. He is Grounder, Scratch’s partner and “twin brother.” And the last male robot is a male robot that resembles a monkey with red fur and ears, peach skin, black eyes, a black nose, silver armored clothing that resembles a janitor’s outfit with three yellow buttons on the belly, a yellow lightbulb on his head, and red leg boots. He is Coconuts. 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 male 16 year old echidna with red fur, long red dreadlock-like quills, a white crescent moon symbol on his chest, peach skin, a black nose, purple eyes, and wearing white gloves with two spikes on the knuckles, and red and yellow shoes with green ankle rims. Everyone recognized him as....)*

Robin: Hey, look!

Little John: Is that Kristoff Bjorgmann?

Robin: That's him, all right.

Leatherhead: The famous explorer that ever lived, by gumbo.

Hector: Captain Kristoff Bjorgmann! I've heard some amazing stories about him.

Little John: (To Kristoff) Are you coming on this voyage, too?

Robin: Of course he is, Johnny boy!

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

Scratch: (To Grounder) We won't be able to fight any savages without Knuckles. *(To Kristoff)* Right?

Kristoff: (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, eight figures emerged from the carriage. The first figure is a human man with short black hair, a black handlebar mustache, and wearing a long blue long-sleeved duster overcoat often worn by early motorists, a white long-sleeved, button-up, collar-flapped shirt, tan pants, red rubber gloves, tan suspenders, black boots, and a large striped hat with driving goggles attached to it. He is Dick Dastardly. The second figure is a male anthro dog has floppy black ears, light greenish brown fur, a black nose, sharp teeth, and wearing an orange red collar. He is Muttley, Dick’s henchman. The third figure is a male Normal-type scratching cat Pokemon with light beige fur, brown tips on the toes and curly tail, two whiskers on the forehead, two whiskers on each side of the cheeks, black ears with the interior colored pink, and has a oval-shaped gold coin on the forehead. He is Meowth. The fourth figure is a female unicorn pony with a pale apple green coat, a curly, luminous orange mane and tail with brilliant yellow streaks, brilliant raspberry eyes, brilliant yellow eyebrows, a cutie mark of a violet G-clef and a gold yellow gem, and wearing a black headband with spiky light gold yellow spikes, a gold yellow necklace with a gold yellow gem charm around her neck, a black necklace with a ruby pendant on a gold brooch, and dark gold yellow eyeshadow. She is Adagio Dazzle. The fifth figure is a female Earth pony with a light purple coat, a purple mane and tail with blue strands (With her mane hair tied in two pigtails), purple eyes, purple eyebrows, a cutie mark of a black a cursive lowercase version of the letter F and a purple and light purple striped star in the front, and wearing white star barrettes in her mane hair, a black necklace with a ruby pendant on a gold brooch, and violet eyeshadow. She is Aria Blaze. The sixth figure is a female unicorn pony with a pale purple coat, a purple mane and tail with light blue strands, gray blue eyes, and a cutie mark of a stream of turquoise and teal steam coming out of a pale pink, purple, and fuchsia sparkle shaped oil lamp. She is Starlight Glimmer. The seventh figure is a female Earth pony with a pale blue coat, a light blue mane and tail with dark blue strands (With her mane hair tied in a ponytail), purple eyes, dark blue eyebrows, a cutie mark of a light blue cursive F-shaped lightning bolt in front of a purple heart, and wearing a dark blue scrunchie in her mane hair, black necklace with a ruby pendant on a gold brooch, and light blue eyeshadow. She is Sonata Dusk. And the last figure is a female unicorn pony with a light blue coat, a pale blue mane and tail with light blue strands, purple eyes, and a cutie mark of a pale blue star wand in front of a turquoise moon. She is Trixie. After emerging, they boarded the Susan Constant. Although Dick, Muttley, and Meowth boarded in calm happiness, the Dazzlings, on the other hand, were pretending to be excited, but deep down, they were secretly disgusted on sailing with Dick to the new world because they don't like Dick whatsoever)*

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 Dick'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!

Settler 3: Give me a hand, someone!

Settler 1: Watch out!

Settler 4: Faster! She's taking up more water!

Settler 2: Look out!

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

Tombo: Knuckles! Get down here! The cannons are breaking loose!

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

Knuckles: (To a settler) Reef the topsails!

Settler 5: Aye, sir!

*(Knuckles then assisted Tombo in tightening the ropes around the cannons tightly)*

Knuckles: (To another settler) Steady on the course! *(To Tombo)* It's all right, Tombo, 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, Knuckles and Tombo braced themselves)*

Knuckles: Tombo, watch out!

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

Tombo: Hey!

Settler 6: Man overboard!

Tombo: Help!

Coconuts: Stay your course! He's lost.

Tombo: Wait, help!

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

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

Settler 4: Aye, sir!

*(After the settler tied the other line onto the railing, Knuckles then dove into the sea after Tombo, much to Scratch, Grounder, Coconuts, and the crew's shock and concern)*

Coconuts: Knuckles!

Grounder: Knuckles!

Scratch: Are you crazy?!

*(In the seawater, Knuckles reached Tombo and grabbed him)*

Knuckles: Hang on, Tombo. I've got you.

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

Coconuts: Quick, the rope!

*(Then Scratch and Grounder joined Coconuts in holding onto the rope and pulling Knuckles and Tombo back to the Susan Constant)*

Scratch: Heave!

*(A wave crashed over Knuckles and Tombo, sinking them underwater, but Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts continued to fight the waves' currents and pull Knuckles and Tombo back to them)*

Scratch: Come on, guys, pull!

*(Knuckles and Tombo emerged at the surface thanks to Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts continuing to pull the rope, this time with more of the settlers helping out)*

Coconuts: Pull! Put your backs into it!

Grounder: Pull, pull!

Scratch: (To Knuckles and Tombo) Hang on!

*(Then thanks to all the pulling they mustered, Knuckles and Tombo 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 Knuckles and Tombo safely back on board. Knuckles then untied the lifeline from his waist)*

Coconuts: (To Knuckles and Tombo, noogieing them) You lucky guys, you!

Knuckles: (Sarcastically) Well, that was refreshing.

Scratch: (Agreeing in sarcasm) Sure was.

Grounder: Well done, Knuckles.

Knuckles: Of course. You'd all do the same for me.

*(Scratch, Grounder, Coconuts, Tombo, and the settlers clamored in agreement happily. Then they see Dick, Muttley, Meowth, and the Dazzlings arrive on the deck. Although Dick and Meowth were giving nonchalant looks and Muttley was looking in confusion, the Dazzlings, however, were the only ones who were concerned)*

Dick: Trouble on deck?

Adagio: Everything alright?

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

Tombo: (Upon noticing them) Oh, Governor Dick Dastardly!

Starlight: What happened?

Dick: (To Starlight) Let me handle this. *(To Knuckles)* What was the trouble?

Knuckles: Tombo fell overboard, sir.

Tombo: But Knuckles and the others saved me thankfully.

Dick: (Nonchalant) Thank heavens he's been successfully retrieved.

*(Then he nods at Knuckles)*

Dick: Well done, Knuckles.

Knuckles: Thank you, Sir.

*(Then Dick turned to the settlers)*

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

Meowth: Lots of freedom!

Dick: Prosperity....

Meowth: And lots of prosperity!

Trixie: (Whispering flatly to the Dazzlings) True on the freedom and prosperity.

*(The Dazzlings nod in agreement flatly as Dick continued)*

Dick: 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 Dick's group returned to their cabin)*

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

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

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

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

Meowth: (Snickering evilly a bit with an evil smirk) Yep-er-rooney.

*(Unknown to Dick, Muttley, and Meowth, the Dazzlings just secretly rolled their eyes in annoyance at what they just said. For it turned out the reason they don't like Dick 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, Knuckles, Tombo, Scratch, Grounder, Coconuts, and the settlers are working, chatting away)*

Tombo: This New World’s going to be great, Knuckles. 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.

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

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

Scratch: Not as much trouble as Knuckles’ll give them!

Coconuts: You got that right!

*(Then they sang a bit as Leatherhead 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**

Kristoff: **Or maybe two or three**

*(Kristofff 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)*

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

**Of the Virginia Company**

*(Then Kristoff and Hector climbed onto the crow's nest and enjoyed the view as the settlers continued their work on deck)*

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

Kristoff: Like all the others, I suppose. I’ve seen hundreds of new worlds, Hector. 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)*
