Chapter Seven: Attack!!! And More...

Of course nothing can last forever...


Boom!!! Cannons shot out and the ship rocked violently sending me off the side of the crows nest and out in to the ocean.


I shot down into the water and felt my body being dragged down. The dress became so heavy under water that it was hard to move.


I finally got my head above water and gasped for air. As soon as I got a breath I fell under another wave, then another, then another.


I was running out of breath and about to give up when I felt arms around my waist. I was dragged above water and breathed heavily.


My eyes stung from the salt and my body was soar from fighting the water but I continued to fight on. I looked up to see none other than Leonardo with rope tied around his waist holding me up.


In a few minutes we were on deck to see total chaos. Three other people from a different ship was on our ship fighting the crew.


Chris handed me a towel and I quickly wrapped it around myself shivering. The water was freezing but I was so focused on getting water that I didn't notice how cold I was.


I looked up at the men in front of me to ask for an explanation. "Oh, that's our rival the Fallen." I nodded my head to Chris who answered my silent question.


"That's Fatsy, Flagy, and Fary. They're triplets. And.... I don't see their captian." I nodded and looked at the three people. One girl and two guys.


Chris pushed me to the side so I was out the way and went to help the others. I sighed and sat on a barrel bored. I watched them fight until I felt movement behind me.


I turned to see a man that I've never seen before smiling sheepishly. "Ummm, aren't you a pretty one. I can see why you're here." He said reaching for me.


"DON'T TOUCH ME!" I shouted. One thing I hated was strangers touching me in any way. "Oohhh, feisty, I like my women like that." He said reaching for me again.


I reached down for my dagger to see that it wasn't there. Crap! I left it with my shoes!


"Wait! TIMEOUT! Are these women's shoes?! Oh hell no I'm the only woman pirate!" The woman triplet said. She was busty. So busty that it wasn't pretty.


Her waist was super small but her hips went out ALOT and so did her chest. She noticed me and stormed up torwards me.


"Why is SHE here. I mean look at HER! She isn't even pretty! She's just skin and bones!" She started yelling at me and storming torwards me. All I need to do is get to my shoes and dagger.


I walked casually around with her following behind me. "Hey!" I looked torwards Masoch and he tossed me a sword. "Thanks!" I smiled back.


I turned back around to see that she already had her sword out. She stormed at me and I easily stepped outof the way and watched her fall to the ground.


I dropped the towel that was around me and turned back to her. She recovered and came at me again when I parried her attack.


She likes to use her weight as an advantage. I thought as I continued on. She would attack and I would block. Getting bored I attacked for a change and surprized by cutting her side. Not deep though.


"You B !T$h!" She yelled. I continued attacking her leaving her little time to block until she fell off the side of the ship. "Fatsy!!" The other triplets yelled while the rest of them laughed.


"Well that was fun but I'm going to take my treasure now! " The other captain yelled coming torwards me. "TOUCH ME AND YOU DIE." I yelled to him annoyed.


"Well maybe next time my rose." He said while grabbing rope and swinging torwards his ship. I let out an annoyed sigh and stood up straight.


Chris handed me my towel again and I nodded taking it and handing Masoch back his sword. "That was amazing! How did ya do that?!" Sam asked happily jumping around.


"My dad taught me when I was young." I answered sadly looking down. A hand clasped my shoulder and I looked up to see Leonardo smiling down to me.


"Nicely done! Couldn't have done it better myself." He said trying to cheer me up. It worked.


I smiled happily feeling acomplished doing something. "Captian, we'll make port in a few hours, thanks to the wind today." Tom said interrupting the silence.


"Good, Chris find out the budget if ya'd be so kind." Chris nodded and walked off below deck. "Nate make sure ya got all the ingredients on the list, Sam make sure we have enough cleaning materials."


"Aye Cap'n!" They also disappeared below deck to do as they were told. "Masoch make sure we have enough gun powder and other weapons. Tom check the ship for any repairs needed."


"Aye Cap'n!" They went to do what they were told leaving me alone with Leonardo on deck. "Leonar..." He interpreted me mid sentence, jerk.


"It's Captain to you when we are on deck or in front of the crew. Understood?" I looked to him confused by his cold tone and nodded.


"Aye Captain." I said plainly annoyed by him. "When in my cabin or alone feel free to call me Leo." I smiled a little and put my poker face back on.


"For now wait in my cabin. I'll get you when we arrive." I nodded yet again and walked back up the stairs to his cabin. "Aye Captain." I said quietly enough so only I could hear.


In his cabin I was almost bored to tears as I rummaged through some of his stuff. I found a cabinet filled with rum and other expensive alcohol along with some maps.


With nothing left to do I looked over a map on his desk. "Oh, after this they're going to... HOLY S^&% THEY'RE GOING TO PIRATE ISLAND!!!!"


Pirate Island, as the name implies, is an island filled with pirates. Retired pirates live there and modern pirates go there for fun. Why doesn't the navy attack you ask?


Because there are so many freaking pirates there that they would lose within the first couple minutes of battle. Yeah, no figurative language there, I was serious.


I was about to scream bloody murder but I figured it would be better to not say anything until we got there. My dress was now mostly dry but lost most of its flare.


It was a sad looking dress actually. To be honest I probably look like a princess that was drowned to death then brought back to life by a demon.


I sighed while serching for something to do. After finding nothing I plopped on the bed and groaned. Yep, the fighting after drowning was a horrible idea.


I was about to fall asleep when the door opened. I looked up to see Sam with his usual smiling face. "Yes?" I askes annoyed by the intrusion.


"Oh sorry miss! It's just.. well.. we made it to port a-and cap'n wants you to come out now." He stuttered blushing slightly and turning away.


I stood up with a groan and walked behind him onto the deck. I was immediatly greeted with the crew arguing like usual and Leo standing there quietly.


I stood next to him silently until he noticed my presence. "Ah, yer out. Good." He said to me quietly and then turned his attention back to everyone else.


"Okay form groups of two. Masoch stay and protect the ship." Multiple 'Aye Cap'ns rang out as they each left the ship in groups. "Well m'lady that leaves you and me. Why don't we get ya some new clothes."


I nodded smiling happily as he held his arm out. I took it greatfully and noticed that he had his jacket on. All the way.


We stopped by a store and he gave me money and exited the store. "Jerk. You coulda just told me to go by myself." I mumbled to myself annoyed by his behavior.


"Ah, young love." I turned to see a middle aged woman there looking at me. "Are you the owner?" I asked after seeing her uniform.


"Indeed.. Good Heavens! We need to get you some clothes right away!" She yelled seeing my depressing dress. "Yes please." Without another second she grabbed my hand and dragged me to a certain section.


"So you're on a pirate ship correct?" She said while flipping through clothes. "Umm..." I didn't know what to say so I stumbled over words.


"It's fine. I had my days of adventure before. I used to have my picture around town once. Those were the days." She sighed at the memory and handed me some clohes.


"Go try these on." I nodded and headed torwards a changing room. I put them on and smiled. They fit perfectly.


She gave me a red shirt that smocked around my shoulders and a black vest over it covering my straps.


She also gave me tight black pants with a red sash that tied on my right hip. My black boots were made of leather and stopped on my knees. They also gave me an inch and a half in height.


I pulled my hair down and used some barrettes she gave me to keep it out my face. I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled. I look hot.


I walked out with my dress folded up in my arms. "Oh! Perfect! I knew it would fit!" I smiled and payed her and left the store waving to her. I met up with Leo who was standing torwards a fountain not paying attention to anything.


I sneaked up behind him and jumped on his back surprizing him making him fall to the ground. "D*&m! Ya get new clothes and the next thing I know yer attacking me!" He yelled laughing.


I laughed too trying to stand up. "Phew." I said wiping my forehead and standing up straight. "Wow. Nice job." I was confused as he continued to stare at me. I finally realized what he meant and smirked.


"Like what ya see?" I asked cockily smirking even more with raised eyebrows. "Ya didn't do that good." He said standing up. "Sure tell that to all the men staring at me. I said looking around us.


At least 10 men were staring at me and many more women glaring at me. "Well they should. Ya do look gorgeous." He said as he slung his arm around my shoulders.


"Get your arm off me." I said glaring. "Would ya rather some strange man try to steal ya away." He started to remove his arm but I immediatly stopped him.


"N-no. I was already stolen away once," I glared at him before I continued, "so I'd rather not do it again." He chuckled as ww continued to walk around the town.


Multiple commwnts were made like, Look at that lovely couple, I wish my man would do that, I wish I was in her shoes, Hey Georgie! Remember when ww walked around like that, Ahhh, young love.


I was blushing furiously at everyone's comments until we passed bybgirls my age. Who is she? I don't know but I don't want to know her I want to know him. They giggled ans continued on.


Girl1: She isn't even pretty.
Girl2: I know he should be walking with us.
Girl1: I wonder what he sees in her.
Girl2: He probably pities her.
Girl1: Yeah. I mean she's so..


Leo turned torwards them in the middle of the comment and they pulled out thier fans and batted thier eye lashes. Nobles these days. He forced me to walk over there and stopped right in front of them.


"Exuse me ladies but I believe that if yer gonna bad talk someone ya should do it quietly not so loud like crows screeching in the sky. Also this here is a genuine woman. Twice you'll ever be. So I suggest that you grow out of those little girl attitudes and grow up. Good day."


He smiled and walked off with me in tow leaving the woman angry as they stormed off torwards wherever. I looked up at him and smirked. "Aww, how kind of ya." I said smirking at his surprized expression.


More people seem to be commenting us on how cute we were after that, Did you hear that! He's sooo in love with her!! I know!!


I blushed even more. I doubt that seriously though. I mean, he kidnapped me for heaven's sake! I'm up for bid in a wild auction between royalty and pirates.


In this game the pirates are winning while the royalty is struggling to keep up with the wildness.
