book.
"Can I see it?" Daniel asked.
"Yea." Jason handed the book to Daniel and sat down.
"How to deal with space pirates for dummies," Daniel read the cover out loud. "Okay. Here you go." He handed the book back to Jason.
Alaska and Gregory hurried into the room. Both of them were out of breath.
Saphire was worried. "What's wrong, Alaska?" she asked.
"I just...." Alaska was trying to catch her breath. "I just...."
"You should sit down. You too, Gregory."
Alaska sat down next to Saphire. "As much as I hate to say this we need to warn Zelda."
"Warn Zelda about what?" Saphire asked, hugging Alaska.
"In the village, Gregory and I ran into Magma. She said that she wants to kill Zelda, and she threatened me.... You made a deal with Zelda, and you should keep it."
"Okay.... Gregory, Daniel, and Jason," Saphire started, "I want you to go and find Zelda and her crew and I want you to warn her."
"Okay." Gregory started to walk away. "Daniel, Jason, come on."
Jason and Daniel started following Gregory.
"Daniel," Saphire said.
Daniel stopped and turned to face both princesses. "Yea."
Saphire blew a kiss to Daniel and he pretended to catch it in his hand.
"Be careful," she said to him.
"I will." He smiled and left.


Gregory and Jason were waiting for Daniel. When he showed up, they left in a flying black and white police car. Gregory was in the driver's seat, Daniel was in the passenger seat, and Jason was in the back seat. The front window was a screen which showed what was going on in front of them.
"So where are we going?" Jason asked.
"I don't know. We have to track...." Gregory started.
"I think that I see where Zelda's going...." Daniel said, cutting Gregory off. "Wait, she's the captain of the White Rose, right?"
"Yea. Why?"
"Because she landed on...."


Aaron was looking at the tracking device and talking to Olivia. "Captain," he said, "Zelda has just landed on the Planet Brass."
"Good." Olivia smiled. "John, tell Blake to land on the Planet Brass."
"Yes, captain." John left the room.
"I'm going to go and check on Donny. Okay, you two."
"Okay," Ryan said.
Olivia left.
"Can I hold that device thing?"
"Yea. Just don't drop it. Okay, Ryan."
"Okay."
Aaron handed the device to Ryan. Ryan looked at it then set it in a bucket of water.
"Why did you put the device into the bucket full of water?" Aaron asked, flipping out.
"Because there was no where else to put it."
"Dude, it's not water proof.... Uh-oh. Now, how are we going to track down Zelda and her crew.... And now the captain's going to kill me...." Aaron was now mad. "But I'm going to kill you first."
"Uh-oh." Ryan pretended to laugh. "You have to admit that it's kind of funny."
That ticked Aaron off and Ryan realized that Aaron might actually kill him.
"I better go. Bye." Ryan hurried out of the room.


John and Shawn were out on the deck talking. "I will never drink rum again," John said.
"I'll drink it again, but not when I'm around the captain."
Ryan ran past them.
"What was that about?" John asked.
"Wanna go see?"
"Yea."
They walked over to Ryan, who was out of breath.
"What's wrong, dude?" John asked.
"Aaron's going...." Ryan was trying to catch his breath. "To kill.... Me."
"What did you do?" Shawn asked.
"Did you say something mean about his mom again?" John asked.
Ryan shook his head. "No," he replied.
"Then," Shawn started to ask, "what did you do?"
"I um.... I um.... I put that device thing that he made in a bucket of water.... I didn't know that it wasn't water proof until he said."
"You are so dead."
"I know."
"Everyone," John said, "knows that things like that aren't water proof. That's like a dog thinking that it's a chicken. You just don't do that, man."
"John has a good point," Shawn told Ryan, then he started talking to John, "but he is an idiot so you have to expect it."
"Good point," John agreed. "You guys know that if the captain finds out," he told Ryan and Shawn, "which she probably will find out, she's not going to be happy."
"We know," they agreed.
"Who's not going to be happy when they find out what?" Olivia asked, walking over to them.
John turned around, shaking. "We were just talking about you, captain."
"Yea," Shawn agreed. "We were just talking about you and...."
"How you will act if John sang something for you," Ryan finished.
John and Shawn looked at Ryan. John was kind of mad.
"You sing, John?" Olivia asked, looking at him.
"Yea."
"Can you sing something for us?"
"Well," he lied, "I don't really like to sing in front of people."
"Really?"
"Yea. I get shy when it comes to singing in front of people." The truth was that he didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of Olivia.
Shawn looked at John as if to say, "That didn't make any since."
"We may be evil," Olivia said, "but we won't make in fun of you if you sing a song...."
"Yea," Shawn agreed. "Come on, dude. You can't be that bad."
"Okay." John started singing:

"ABCD
EFG...."

"Dude," Shawn said, cutting John off. "Sing something that's not childish."
"Yea," Olivia agreed. "I'm pretty sure that everyone here, but Ryan, knows their ABC's."
"I know my ABC's." Ryan started singing:

"ABCD
HQGL"

"Ok-ay." Shawn turned to John. "Sing something that we would listen to now."
"Yea." Olivia nodded.
"Okay. Here's a song from the Jonas Brothers. It's the chourse to When You Look Me in the Eyes." John started singing.
"Wow," Olivia whispered to herself as John sang. "He's got a voice like an angel." She thought about what she just said. "Wait. Did I just say that?"
As John finished, Drake walked over to them. "Captain," he said, "my brother told me to tell you that we're almost landing on Brass."
"Good. John, go get Aaron and tell him to bring his tracking device."
John's eyes grew wide. "Okay." He left.


Zelda and Ben were walking around looking for something to steal. "Remember," Zelda told Ben, "we're looking for a gold grandfather clock."
"Why do we need a grandfather clock?"
"We need a grandfather clock for two reasons. One reason's because I would like to know what time it is.... The other reason is so I can find out how Olivia finds where we are and just shows up."
"Ok-ay." Ben was confused. "I know that clocks were made to show time, but how will it let you know how Olivia keeps finding us?"
"Because they made the grandfather clocks with a thing that can tell you all about a ship and the captain.... It also tells you where the ship has been, and why the captain went there and things like that. Things are made different now days, too."
"Oh. How are we going to get it back to the ship? I mean are you going to be able to help me carry it back...." Ben realized he had put his foot in his mouth. "I mean not that I think you're weak or anything, I just didn't think that you'd want to carry a big clock back to the ship, because you're the captain of the crew so...."
Zelda laughed. "I know what you mean. You don't have to explain it to me.... And the grandfather clocks aren't big. They're the size of Clocksworth from Beauty and the Beast, but they don't have faces, arms, and can't walk or talk."
Ben laughed.

Daniel was walking in the town on the planet, looking for Zelda. "Well," he said to himself, "Zelda should be here. If I had a sister-in-law like Zelda, I'd have her locked up along with my brother. Of course, I'm the only child so I don't have to worry."
Olivia came out of no where with her crew. "Where are you going?" she asked.
Olivia's crew circled around Daniel.
"What do you want, Olivia?" the cop asked.
"Where's Zelda?"
"I don't know. I'm not part of her crew."
"Wrong answer. Shawn," she said, snapping her fingers, "lock him up."
"This is wrong and messed up. Okay. I really don't know where she is."
"I'm going to use you as bate."
"Yea, well, listen to this.... I work for a kid, and now, I'm being captured by a kid."
"You're lucky that you're cute," Olivia said, ticked off, "or I'd kill you for saying that. No body calls me a kid."
"Ok-ay," Daniel whispered to himself, his eyes grew wide.
They went to the Black Velvet.


Gregory walked in front of a store and stopped. He looked around, but seen no sign of Zelda or Daniel and Jason. He waited for Jason and Daniel to show up. "Come on, guys," he said to himself, pacing. "What's taking so long? Why aren't they back yet? Maybe, they ran into trouble. No. They would of called me for back up. Maybe, they were already here, and they decided to leave me here by myself. No. They wouldn't do that. Or would they? It makes since, they're both older than me and they're probably tired of taking orders from a kid."
Jason showed up. "sir?"
Gregory turned to face him. "Jason? I see that you haven't had any luck trying to find Zelda."
Jason was disappointed and he looked at the ground. "No, sir."
"It's okay. Maybe Daniel's having better luck."
"Speaking of Daniel.... Has he shown up yet?"
"No. Which is weird because he'd be here first."
"That's right. My cousin would usually be out here first. He'd be waiting for us. You don't think that something bad happened...."
Gregory's watch started beeping. He looked at his watch. "It's Daniel." He pressed a button. "Let's find out what's going on." He started talking into the watch. "Daniel, what's taking you so long? Did you find Zelda?"
"No, I haven't found Zelda, and I've been captured."
Gregory was confused. "Captured? By who?"
"Olivia and her crew."
"Where are you?"
"Well, I'm in a cell and the walls are painted black and there's spider webs everywhere and.... OH MY GOSH! That spider's going to eat that fly."
"I kind of figured that.... I mean where's the ship located?"
"I don't know. I didn't notice. Sorry, sir."
"Alright. Gotta go." They hung up. Gregory was frustrated. "Great. Now, we have to look for two ships." Killing Donny

Zelda and Ben were now at a clock store. It was a little shop. They walked in. There were clocks from round clocks to coo-coo clocks. The store was filled with clocks. Zelda made sure that no one heard her before she spoke. "Remember what we're here for," she told Ben.
"Okay."
They went to the grandfather clocks. Zelda started looking at the clocks. "I can't
