"They are...um...pirates," Angela said, grabbing his arm and dragging him toward the cabin. She burst through the door. "Heave to! Ready the cannons! Where the hell is Scott?"
The red head at the controls looked up, face pale. "Below deck," she said. "Um.....Angela...who is that?"
"Don't ask stupid questions, he's a friend. But more or less useless right now," she said. Which might not be true but would hopefully shut up further questions.
She turned on the com system. "Get ready to fire the long nines!"

"But aren't you on the same side?" Zen didn't get pirates, they were always illogical like this. Useless? How mean! Was that supposed to be a hint?
"You guys make no sense to me." Zen poofed to the other ship's headquarters to investigate in front of everybody.
"What's wrong with you people!?" He crossed his arms, looking at the other pirate group.

"No we're not---you're misunderstanding again...." Angela trailed off when Zen vanished.
"GAH! He vanished!" Jax said, pointing. "What the hell kind of weird boyfriend do you have?"
"Yeah...he does that," Angela said, giving her a pained look.
**
Christine spun around when an unfamiliar voice demanded to know what was wrong with them. Tall...shiny...red head.
Who was kind of hot.
She lifted an eyebrow. "Who the hell are you?"

"Wow Angela never said pirates on this planet have evil twins that try to kill each other." He avoided answering the question and began hitting all the gizmos he saw while starring at the strange twin lady.
Zen didn't really want to see anyone blow up each other, especially if there was an Angela on each ship.

Christine gave Zen a frigid smile. "You know my sister then?" she asked, pulling out one of her pistols. "I hope you realize this means you have to die. What---what the hell are you doing!?!"
He was mashing buttons on the controls for all he was worth. The ship suddenly lurched forward, pitching Christine face first into Zen's midriff.
"You turned the rear propellers on you b*****d!" someone shouted. "Christine! We're on a collision course!"
"Hard to port!" she yelled, freeing her face from Zen's shirt.
**
"What...on earth are they doing?" Jax wondered, staring at the other ship, which first was rushing toward them and then making a sharp turn away.
Angela looked out and sighed. "So that's where he went..."

"If I had a nickel for every time someone's evil twin told me that... I'd have a whole bunch of nickels... whatever that saying is..."
Zen gave up hitting buttons when the girl slammed into him.
Everything was nice an abnormal now for everybody, even if it still made little sense to him.
Angela apparently had a twin sister pirate who wanted to kill her, and the pirates were apparently very strange rebels who rebelled against each other too, and that was about all he managed to piece together.

On the Winged Serpent, they'd gone hard to starboard. Both ships turned awkwardly but managed to scrape each along side the other, sending a row of sparks shooting into the air.
Angela was knocked to the ground and ran above deck.
"What the hell are you doing you psychopath!" she shouted.
**
"What are you doing?" Christine shouted at Zen, hitting him a few times. "Are you trying to get us all killed??"
"Ah...Christine. I believe you sister is on deck shouting obscenities at you..."

"I was trying to stop you guys from shooting, but I guess this works too." He got wacked several times by the evil twin. Why was it always in the head?

Christine glared at Zen. "Don't go anywhere. When I get back, I will personally disembowel you."
She stormed out on deck, glaring at her irate twin. "Yes, well that was due to your dumbass boyfriend!"
Angela scowled. "ZEN!!" She was just about to find her way over there and yell at him when she heard a rather loud sound from above and glanced up, realizing that the ships were entangled and the rigging on the Morning star had torn a huge hole in the Serpent's main balloon. "Why...do these things always happen when he's around?"

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Zen grumbled while trying to figure out how to get on the deck where the twins were yelling at each other.
Looked like they were both in a load of trouble now, he just hoped they wouldn't crash into a city or somewhere with populus.
Why DID these things always happen to him? He had no idea, even though he did kind of start the whole collision.

When Zen walked out, Christine whipped out a pistol and pointed it at him at nearly the same instant Angela pulled out one and pointed it at Christine.
"I am going to shoot that red haired b*****d," Christine declared.
"I really don't think now is a good time considering our ships are losing altitude rather.....oof!" Both ships shuddered as the Serpent tried to pull loose from the Morning Star and Angela was thrown to the ground.
Moments later, JAx ran above deck, face ashen. "Angela! We're going to have to abandon ship! Get to one of the life crafts!"
"I'll be there!" Angela said. "You go on ahead. Zen!"

"I've got a better idea! I'll just bring the lot of you somewhere that MAKES sense."
Zen stepped out onto the deck, felt out the size of the ships and in a few tugs of his hands both of the air vehicles were submerged into Kall. They came down about ten feet from the open gate of Tintagil's outer wall which spanned over a mile into the sky. It marked the only thing that resembled anything human or habitable in Kall.
Only the expanse of mist and glass and storm lay on the horizon, along with a small dip of a crater.
As the ships hit ground, energy flashed on the other side of the cold glass, equalizing the impact. It soon died off and the only light came from the ships and city wall which decided to turn on magically.
"There," Zen smiled arrogantly, eyes glowing, "Now the only one not confused is ME."

"You're mistaken," Angela said. "I've actually been here before if you recall." She looked around. It appeared that the crews had both gotten off board before Zen poofed them all to Kall. "And I'm at least familiar with that aspect of your power. I'm not remotely confused except by--why you chose to bring us here."
"Where the hell are we!?" Christine demanded. She glared at Zen. "Just who are you?"
"King of the universe," Angela supplied with a smile. "This one anyway. Or...you know...something like that." She waved a hand dismissively.
Christine narrowed her eyes and sidled over to Angela. "You're...ah...dating the king of the universe?"
Angela flushed. "Well...I....not exactly. We're not dating...really. Our relationship is weird. It's best not to ask."

"She's my girlfriend!" Zen blurted, not really sure if he was supposed to keep his cover or not. "I am Emperor Zensekai Denavorae, and someone explain to me why the hell there are two of you!"

Christine looked at Angela, who facepalmed. Right. Girlfriend. She really ought to make himstart acting like her boyfriend if he was going to go around blurting it out like that all the time.
"An Emperor," Christine asked with a smirk. "Not bad. Maybe I should steal you away from her."
"And obviously we're sisters," Angela said. "Just think of us like twins. It's really too complicated to explain it in detail. And we are twins...more or less."
"Sort of."
