open. "Hide the rum," Ryan whispered.
Olivia walked into the kitchen. "What's going on, guys?" she asked.
David tried to act normal. "Oh. We're just talking."
"Yea," Ryan agreed.
"I see."
John walked over to Olivia, really drunk. He put his arm around her. "You know, baby, I love you. You're the reason I'm alive. Because of you, I can be a real man."
"Is that rum I smell on your breath?" Olivia asked, mad.
John shook his head, while kissing his pointer and middle fingers, and then wiped them on Olivia's lip.
Olivia was ticked off. "ALL THREE OF YOU ARE DRUNK!"
"Noooo." John was more drunk than the other two.
"Give the bottles to me."
"What bottles?" Ryan asked as if he didn't know what she was talking about. "We know that you don't like rum and don't want it on the ship. So why would we sneak it on the ship?"
"RYAN!"
"Man." He handed the bottle to Olivia.
"The other bottle, Ryan."
"That's the only bottle on the ship."
"No, it's not."
"Yes, it is."
Olivia gave him a dirty look.
"Fine." He handed her the other bottle, but didn't let go.
"Let go, Ryan."
Ryan didn't want to, but he eventually let go of the bottle.
"I want you three to go up to the deck. NOW!"
Ryan, John, and David left the kitchen.
"Morons," she said to herself. "You must be a fool to drink this devilish drink. One, you'll want more, and a thousand, is never enough. It will destroy you from the inside out. It posions the brain, and damages the heart. Only a fool would fall for this devilish drink."


Ben and Zelda were still playing the game. "Way to go, Benjamin. You got further than I get in this game, and this is your first time."
Ben smiled. "Thanks, captain."
"You see that girl that's trapped."
"Yea."
"Well, that's Zelda."
"Oh." Ben looked at the game, then to Zelda. "I see why your parents named you after her."
"Oh. Why?"


"This is going to be good," Paul whispered.
"Yea," Peter agreed.
"Ssssh, guys. I want to hear this," Scott told them.


"Well," Ben started, "like her, you're beautiful."


"Oh no, he didn't."


Zelda was shocked. "Um.... Um.... Um...." She had to change the subject. "You know what? I want to go check up on Max. He's probably starving by now." She stood up. "Well, I had fun hanging out with you, Benjamin, but I have to go right now."


"We better get away from the door," Paul said.
As soon as they backed away from the door, it opened. Zelda, who was followed by Ben, walked out of the room.
"Were you guys spying on us?" Ben asked.
"NO!" Scott thought of a lie. "It just so happened that we were walking to the room, when the door opened. Right, guys?"
"Yea," Peter and Paul agreed.
Ben and Zelda looked at each other then to Scott, Peter, and Paul.
"Okay. Well," Zelda said, walking past them, "I'm going to go check up on Max." She left.
Scott made sure that Zelda was gone. "DUDE! You never tell a girl that you like that she's beautiful."
"Yea," Paul agreed.
"Why not?" Ben asked.
"Because now she's going to want to hear it more, then after you two get hitched it'll be, 'Does this dress make me look fat?' then you'll have to lie and say, 'No you look fine, honey.'"
Ben was really confused. "Okay. Scott, keep your mouth shut when it comes to this kind of thing."
"Yea, Scott," Peter agreed with Ben. "You don't know what you're saying."
Paul and Scott left.
"Peter," Ben asked, "do you think that the captain likes me?"
"Um...." Peter remembered that he told Zelda that he wouldn't tell Ben or anyone else. "I don't know. I mean that there's a possiblity that she does, but.... Then again she might not." Peter was acting funny.
"Are you okey?" Ben asked.
"I'm fine, I just need something to eat. That's all."
"Okay."
Peter left and Ben just stood there, confused. Magma Appears on Pluto

Alaska, Saphire, Gregory, Jason, and Daniel were in the throne room of the ice palace. Both princess were sitting on their thrones. "I'm still confused to why you made a deal with that no good pirate," Alaska said to Saphire. "You're the oldest, and if mom and dad were still alive," she started to cry, "then they'd disown you for trusting a pirate. What happened to make you sink so low?"
Saphire didn't say anything, and she couldn't even look at Alaska.
Gregory walked over to them. "What's wrong, Princess Alaska?" he asked.
"It's Saphire.... She's not listening to me. It's like she's someone else. She doesn't act the same."
"Then you two need to work things out."
"Gregory." Saphire didn't look at him when she spoke.
"Yes," he said, turning to face her, "Princess Saphire."
"If Zelda and her crew don't return with the others that she said they were going to capture in a few more days, then I want you, Daniel, and Jason to go and capture her and her crew."
"Yes, princess." Gregory bowed his head.
"You're breaking the deal witht that pirate?" Alaska asked, surprised.
"Well, we didn't say how many days she should be back.... But unlike you, she's not family, and I hate it when you're mad at me. You're my sister and I should of told you about that deal, but I didn't. And now, I feel bad."
Alaska smiled. "Thanks, sis."
"Do you want us to go now?" Gregory asked, butting in.
"No," Saphire said. "I want you guys to wait a few days. Only bounty hunters do that. You guys are space police."
Daniel walked over to them, followed by Jason. "What if Zelda gets away?" he asked.
"Yea," Jason agreed, "because she's a tricky pirate. That's probably why she's wanted all over the universe."
"You know, I'm hungry," Saphire changed the subject. "Let's go to the kitchen and get something to eat."
"I'm hungry, too," Jason said.
"You guys can go, I'm going to walk around the village. Okay," Alaska told them.
Everyone, except for Gregory, who got to the door and stopped, left. Gregory turned to face Alaska. "Can I go with you instead?" he asked.
"Aren't you hungry?"
"No. But I rather be with you anyways...." He thought that he was going to lean against the wall. "I want to talk to you...." He fell. "OW!"
Alaska rushed over to help him up. "Are you okay?"
He grabbed her hand. "Yea.... I meant to do that," he lied.
Alaska laughed. "Okay. Let's go."
They walked out of the room.


Saphire, Jason, and Daniel were in the dining room waiting to get something to eat. Now, the dining room was the second biggest room in the palace. Saphire, Jason, and Daniel sat at the table, which was big enough for ten people. There were ten chairs. Eight on each side and one at each end. There was a chandelier which was hanging over the table. A vase with nine blue roses was in the center of the table. Saphire, Jason, and Daniel were sitting on the right side of the table. "What's up with pirates and rum?" Jason asked.
Daniel laughed. "I don't know. But I think that day that we captured Zelda and her shipmate, who happened to be Gregory's brother...."
Saphire smiled. "Wait a minute. That guy that was with Zelda was Gregory's brother?"
"Yep."
"Wow. I didn't know that Gregory had any brothers."
"Yep. Apparently he has two brothers."
"Oh. Well, he's a cop and his brother that was with Zelda is a pirate. What if his other brother's a bounty hunter?"
"Or like Gregory's other brother, he mght also be a pirate," Jason said.
"Good point."
"I'm going to be right back." Jason left.
Daniel pulled out a ring box, which had a diamon ring.
Saphire looked at the box, confused. "What's that for?" She knew the answer but wished that the timing was better.
Daniel opened the box, revealing the ring. "Saphire," he started to ask, taking the ring out, "will you marry me?"
Saphire looked at the ring, sadden. She knew that this was going to happen. "I would say yes, but now's not a good time. I have to deal with a pirate and I don't want Alaska to be mad.... Ask me again in a few months."
Daniel placed his arms around Saphire and held her close to his chest. He understood why she asked him to wait. He didn't want to force her into saying yes. "I'll wait.... I'll wait until death if I have to."


Alaska and Gregory were talking and walking around the ice village, when they ran into Magma. "What are you doing here?" Alaska asked.
"I wanted to see if there's a certain pirate that you have locked up that I want to kill."
"And who would that be?"
"Zelda Samara Griffen."
"She's not one that we have locked up. She made a deal with my sister though."
"Oh. Really?"
"I will not let you harm her while she's under the protection of us."
"Well," Magma said, walking toward Alaska and Gregory, "you better stay out of my way or I'll turn you into Baked Alaska, and I don't mean the dessert."
Gregory stood in front of Alaska to protect her. "I won't let you harm her."
"You?" Magma laughed. "Don't make me laugh. I have bounty hunters who would kill you with in seconds."
"It's okay," Alaska told Gregory. "She can't stay here for long. It's a cold planet, she's going to need heat."
Gregory understood. He moved over to Alaska, kind of standing a little close to her just in case he needed to protect her.
"Well," Magma said, backing away from them, "I would love to stay, but I have to get going." She left.
Alaska turned toward the palace. "Come on, Gregory. We have to go tell Saphire."
They hurried back to the palace.

John's Childhood Dream

Saphire and Daniel were eating when Jason showed up. Saphire took a piece of bread. "What took you so long, Jason?" she asked.
"Yea, man," Daniel replied.
Jason sat down. "Oh. I had to get something."
"Yea," Saphire asked as she leaned back in the chair, "what?"
"This." Jason pulled out a
