THE STORY SO FAR
Mysterio’s cargo ship has been attacked by ruthless pirates. The pirates plan to hold him for ransom and force him to use his mental powers for evil instead of for cute baby t-shirts. Mysterio is in a holding cell, deep inside the ship, awaiting his doom.

I lie in my cell clothed only in my Calvin Klein bikini briefs and my turban, bravely sobbing into my rotten, moldy pillow. Suddenly the hatch opened and in stepped the hairiest Pirate I had ever seen! Hair seemed to stream from every crevice. Hair exploded from every pore. I was stunned and very much impressed, struggling to make sense of the furry creature before me when suddenly the hairy beast fell upon me, feverishly whispering, “Thank you, thank you, thank you.” over and over whilst trying to kiss me repeatedly about the facial region.

I politely, but forcefully, held the hairy thing away. After all, I had only been at sea for perhaps 45 minutes and didn’t want to burn any bridges if my imprisonment were to last longer than expected. “You do not understand!” squealed the beast once I had wrestled it to the floor. “You, great Mysterio, predicted long ago that this Mother’s son would one day blossom into a Flamenco Dancer and, now twenty years later, he has fulfilled that DESTINY! He is rich beyond measure and his sexiness is now a thing of legend, just as you predicted!” The hairy thing now towered above me, and now began shouting. “My son’s Flamenco dancing is sought after worldwide! He has begun taping a reality show for E! called, “The Flamenco Kid” and he has been asked to dance during President-Elect Obama’s Inaguration! Not after or before the swearing in, mind you, but DURING! He is that good.” In the uncomfortable silence that followed, I quickly surmised that this hairy thing was a woman. “Great Mysterio, for all you have done for my family, for all you have done for the children of the world, I cannot let you be beaten by several octopi until dead!” Then, sweeping aside the thick, long hair from the top of her lip to be heard clearly she whispered, “I shall help you escape!”
