how he could make me his princess….”

          “Yea yea.  Well, will that be okay with you...?”

          “I’m really confused.  I don’t know if I should stay with John or go out with Will.  Me and Will almost kissed….”

          “I’ll understand if you don’t want us….” Zelda realized what Olivia had said.  She was shocked.  “Wait a minute, did you say that you and Will almost kissed?”

          Olivia nodded.  “Yes, but then, I thought about John, and I snapped back to reality.  I don’t know who I should choose.”

          “Choose John.  He’s your boyfriend.”  Zelda didn’t want to see Olivia and John break up just because of Will.  She couldn’t believe that Olivia would even consider to break up with John for Will.  “Even though, he can’t give you everything that Will can, he can give you his love.  Will’s trying to bribe you to fall in love with him.  John’s not.”  She knew that Will was going to get into Olivia’s head somehow.  “John loves you more than anything.  Will is cute, but he tried to destroy the universe.  He was once our enemy.  He wanted you dead.  I think you should with John.”

          “You’re right.”  Olivia knew Zelda was right.  She knew that John loved her and she loved him.  “Should I tell John that me and Will almost kissed?”

          Zelda looked at Olivia with wide-eyes.  She knew the answer to that.  “No.  John will kill Will.”

          “Good point.  So, I should keep it a secret?”

          “Oh yea.”

          Olivia decided to change the subject.  “So, what were you going to say about distracting the bad guys?”

          Zelda dropped her mouth.  She couldn’t believe that Olivia didn’t hear a word she said.  “I’ll tell you later.”

Why Gregory Hates Zelda

          Gregory and Alaska were walking around the ice city.  They were searching for Larry.  Gregory didn’t want to believe that Larry would run away.  He couldn’t believe it.  He remembered when Ben had left without telling anyone.  He remembered when John had just walked out the front door and never came home.  “Thanks for helping me look for Larry, Princess Alaska.”  He was ashamed.  He was a cop and this was his second time loosing Larry within a few months.

          “No problem.”

          “It’s hard to believe that Larry would just run away from home.  He told me that he wants to be a pirate.”  Gregory needed someone to blame and he knew who.  “I bet Zelda had something to do with this.”

          Alaska knew that Gregory hated Zelda, but she didn’t understand why he couldn’t stand that pirate.  “What’s the deal with you and Zelda?” she asked.  “Why do you hate her so much?”

          Gregory took a deep breath.  He knew that he had to explain.  “When I first became a cop,” he admitted, “Zelda was the first pirate that I had met.”  He paused.  “I didn’t even think that pirates were all that bad.  I mean, I read stories about them, but I didn’t think that pirates were still around.”  He paused again.  “Then I met Zelda.”  He remembered that day as he told Alaska.  “There was this bank robbery.  I was one of the cops that got sent out to stop the robbery.”  He smiled.  “Oh man.  It was the best day of my life,” he said, excitement grew in his voice, “I was excited.  I stood outside waiting for the thief to come out.”  He paused, losing the excitement.  “When I seen this girl walk out with a bag of money and rum.  It was,” he continued with anger in his voice, “Zelda.  She didn’t have any weapons on her though, which was weird.  I walked over to her and we talked.  She told me that her name was Zelda Samara Griffen.”  He took a breath.  “I asked what she was doing here, and she told me that she was looking for a crew.”  He remembered that was the same day that Ben went to work, but never came home that night.  “I asked her why, and she said because she was the captain of the White Rose, but the thing was, was that she didn’t have a crew yet.  I asked if she was a pirate, and she said, ‘Yes.’  Then we heard the other cops getting closer to the bank, and she handed me the money, smiled, then left.”  He was about to explode at the memory.  “She framed me,” he finished.

          Alaska dropped her mouth.  “How did the other cops react?”

          “I tried to tell them the truth, but they didn’t believe me.  They placed me under arrest.  This guy that seen what happened, told them everything, then they let me go.  Not only do Jason and Daniel work for me,” Gregory admitted, embarrassed, “but they’re also m baby sisters.”

          “Oh.”  Alaska tried not to laugh.

          Leo arrived.  “Hello, Princess Alaska.”

          “Leo?”

          “What do want?” Gregory asked.

          “Where are the pirates?” Leo asked.

          “They’re not here,” Alaska told him.  “At least, the ones that aren’t locked up.”

          “How about Zelda?”

          “I don’t know where she is.”

          Leo pulled out his sword and walked toward her.  He was kind of ticked off.  “Really?  I’m going to ask you again, where is she?”

          “I told you…. I don’t know.”  Alaska didn’t bother to back up.  She just stood there.

          Leo moved closer to the princess.  “Come on.  Don’t lie to me, princess.”

          Gregory took out his sword and moved in front of Alaska to protect her.  “She doesn’t know.  Now, leave her alone, Leo.”

          “Awe.  How sweet?” Leo acted amused.  “You’re protecting your girlfriend.  Too bad I don’t care.”  He went to attack.

          Gregory blocked the attack.  “What are you doing here?”

          “What do you think?”

          “LEO, LEAVE!” Alaska barked.

          “Not ‘till I get what I want.”

          Now, Alaska was ticked off.  “I told you, there are no pirates here.”  She held out a hand and froze Leo in place.  Leo tried to move to get free, but he couldn’t.  “Now, when I let you go, I want you to leave, and never come back.  Promise, Leo?”

          “Fine.” He was extremely ticked off.  “I promise.”

          “Good.  Now go.”  Alaska let him go from the frozen force field.

          Leo fell back.  After he got his balance, he placed his sword in the sheath.  He started to walk away.  “This isn’t over.”

          “Some people….” She watched Leo leave, and then turned to check on Gregory.  “Are you okay?  Did he hurt you?”

          “I’m fine.  You don’t have to worry.  Thanks for saving me.”

          Alaska smiled.  “You save my life all the time.  I owe you.”

          Gregory returned the smile.  “You don’t owe me.  You’re love is all I need.”

          They kissed.

Distracting the Bounty Hunters

          Larry was now on Blaze.  He was searching for the White Rose.  He was amazed by the magma colored ocean.  The only water he was used to seeing was ice blue water.  “The White Rose should be here soon,” he told himself.

          Romano and Keaton appeared.  Romano noticed Larry over by the dock.  “Hey, man, do your parents know where you are?” he asked.

          “Yea,” Keaton answered, thinking that Romano was talking to him, “I told them before I left their graves.”

          Romano looked at Keaton.  “I’m not talking to you.”  He pointed to Larry.  “I’m talking to him.”

          “Oh.”

          “My parents?” Larry asked.

          “Yea.”  Romano nodded.

          “They’re both dead.”

          “Oh.”

          “You have to be careful out here,” Keaton warned, “man.  There are real idiots out here.”

          “You mean like you two bounty hunters?”

          “Yea….” Romano agreed.  “HEY, WE’RE NOT IDIOTS!”

          “You’re talking to a pirate.”

          Keaton laughed.  He didn’t believe that Larry could be a pirate.  “You’re not a pirate.  You’re too young.”

          “You would have a gun if you were a pirate,” Romano stated.

          Larry revealed the gun.  “Look it here…. A gun.”

          “So, you have a gun.  Pirates also have swords.”

          Larry revealed the sword.  “You mean like this?”

          “HE IS A PIRATE!”  Romano prepared to attack.  “Any last words, kid?”

          Larry realized he was in trouble.  The kid didn’t know how to sword fight.  He looked out at the ocean and an idea popped into his head.  He randomly pointed out into the ocean.  “OH MY GOSH!” he freaked out.  “THAT GIRL JUST FELL INTO THE OCEAN!  SOMEONE NEEDS TO HELP HER!”

          Keaton and Romano turned around and rushed over to lava color flowing water.  Larry ran for his life.

          “I don’t see….” Keaton said, turning around.  “Hey, where’d he go?”

 

          Zelda and Ben were in the captain’s office of the White Rose.  Zelda sat on top of the desk while Ben stood in front of her.  “I need to tell you something, but you can’t tell Olivia,” she told her handsome, charming husband, “because she’ll kill me, and you can’t tell John because he’ll break up with Olivia, and kill Will, and Olivia will kill me.  Either way, I’m dead.”

          “Okay.  What?”

          Zelda didn’t know exactly how to Ben.  “Olivia almost kissed Will.”

          “WHAT?!” The shock was apparent in Ben’s voice.

          “I was shocked too…. But she didn’t…. She thought about your brother, and how that would hurt him, so she didn’t…. Don’t tell John.”

          “He has to know, Zelda.”  He couldn’t believe what Zelda was asking him to do.  “I’d want to know if you kissed Jeremy.”

          Zelda couldn’t believe that Ben would say something like that.  “Okay.  First of all, I would never do that, even after, you’re long gone.  Second of all, they almost kissed.”

          “Still, he should know.”  Ben was kind of ticked off.

          “I know, but please don’t tell him.”

          “Okay.  I won’t tell him,” Ben said, hugging Zelda, “but he should know.”

          They started to kiss, when Ray walked in.  “Go, Ben.”  They stopped and looked at him.

          “Can’t you learn to knock, Riley?” Zelda asked.

          “Well, I can, but I don’t want to.”

          Ben turned to face Ray, keeping an arm wrapped around Zelda.  “What do you want?”

          “Olivia and John are on land, and they’re waiting for you two.”

          “Okay,” Zelda said, “tell them, we’ll be there in a minute.”

          “Okay.”  Ray left.

          “Remember…. Don’t tell John.”

          “I know.”

          “Good.”

 

          Olivia and John were waiting for Zelda and Ben on the dock of the planet.  “Now, that we’re on Blaze, can leave Will here?” John asked.

          “No.  He’s part of the crew now.  Why would we do that?”

          “It was just a suggestion.”

          “Do you think
