It was a headline that sent chills down the hunched spines of Internet trend fanboys around the globe: "Pirates Hijack Military Cargo Vessel". An explosion of posts to forums, blogs and chat-rooms soon flooded servers as the opposing realities of the Internet and the Real World suddenly collided together
upon the release of a single viral news story.
International authorities would have quickly dispatched the rag-tag crew of renegade seamen, but once word got out that there were actual pirates involved, and that they had actually plundered some booty, all hope of a quiet forceful retaking of the ship with conventional arms quickly faded. It soon became apparent to International authorities that they would suffer a major public relations backlash if they unceremoniously culled off the much romanticized antiheroes of the powerful global lobby of Internet Fanboydom.
With time running out for the hostages aboard the Pirate Ship and with the fanboy crisis escalating rapidly, the UN Security Council held an emergency meeting to determine a course of action. Soon it was unanimously decided, with no members exercising their veto power, that the only solution was the creation of the UN Naval Ninja Taskforce to take on the burgeoning Pirate threat.
Within seconds the Ninjas were deployed from a remote Pacific ocean training facility. By gracefully running across the water at a tremendous rate of speed, they arrived at the Pirate Ship by nightfall. Using their grappling hooks they boarded the vessel, and drew their katanas from their utility belts preparing for the onslaught of enemy parrots and scimitars.
It was then that two opposing worlds collided again, this time in a flurry of throwing stars and bullets from the modern pirates' automatic firearms. When the smoke and falling debris of eye-patches and feathers finally cleared, the ship containing soviet era tanks and armaments was retaken and the world was again safe, thanks to the United Nations Naval Ninja Task Force!
