deserve it.  “Not in my castle…. Not on my planet.”

          “What’s wrong, princess?” Ben asked.  “Can’t always get what you want?”

          Magma was ticked off by the pirate’s question.

 

         The arrived back at the dock.  Daniel had brought Magma to the car.  He opened the door but she wouldn’t get in so he pushed her inside of the police car.

          Magma was extremely ticked off by Daniel’s action.  “You don’t have to push me.  That’s not a way to treat a lady, especially a princess.”

          “You’re not a lady, you’re a demon.”  Daniel closed the door on Magma.

          She exploded.  “You get back here.  When I get out of this, you’re dead meat.”

          Daniel ignored Magma’s remark.  He walked over to Gregory, Zelda, and Olivia.

          “So, what are we going to do now?” Gregory asked.  “Since we have Magma.”

          “Watch as the bounty hunters fall,” Zelda answered, “then we fight.”

          Ben walked over to Zelda and wrapped his arm around her.  “You’re the only one that’s not going to be fighting,” he reminded her.

          “I have to fight.”  It was killing her that she couldn’t fight.

          “Zelda, we been through this.  As long as you’re pregnant, you’re not fighting.”

          “We’re going back to Pluto,” Gregory informed the pirates, “so that way we can lock up Magma.  Come and get us when you figure out what to do with the bounty hunters.”

          “Okay.  See ya,” Olivia said.

          Gregory, Daniel, and Jason climbed into the cop car.

          “BYE, ED, EDD, ‘N EDDY!” Zelda called after them.

 

          Daniel sat in the passenger seat of the car while Jason sat in the back with Magma and Gregory sat in the driver’s seat.  Gregory cranked up the engine and the car lifted off of the ground and shot off into the depths of space.

          Magma kept kicking Jason.

          “Why do I have to sit next to the princess?” Jason asked.  “Ow.  Stop that hurts.”  He looked over at Magma and had to admit that she was cute even though she was evil.

          “I don’t care,” she replied as she glared at him.

          “You know you’re kind of cute,” he admitted.

          Gregory and Daniel were both shocked and surprised at what Jason had told Magma.

          Magma bit his arm.

          “OW!  You bit me…. After I gave you a complement too.”

          Gregory and Daniel kind of laughed at Jason.

Wild Goose Chase

          Russel and Leo were walking around the ice city on Pluto.  They were heading back toward their car when they ran into Saphire.

          “What are you two doing here?” Saphire asked.  She knew the answer but wanted one of the two blood thirsty bounty hunters to tell her.

          “We’re looking for pirates,” Russel answered, acting polite.  He figured she could tell them what the pirates had been planning on or knew something that was going on.

          “Well, you’re kind of late.”  Saphire could see right through Russel’s little act.  She had known better than to trust a bounty hunter because everything meant death in their path.  She remembered how her father had been murdered by a bounty hunter.  She hadn’t seen what had happened herself but her mother had told the story to other adults.  It had seem not long later her mother had passed away of a heart attack at least that was what the doctors had said time and time again.

          “What do you mean?” Leo asked.

          “Well, they were here a couple of days ago then they left.”

          “We were here for two weeks and we never knew that.”  Russel began to grow angry.

          “That’s because bounty hunters are dumb.”  Saphire began to leave.

          Russel was ticked off and had drawn his sword as he stepped in front of the ice princess, stopping her in her tracks.  “What did you just say?” he asked.

          “You heard me, dummy.”

          “Why you?”  He went to kill her but Leo stopped him.

          Leo had figured that the princess wasn’t worth the time to kill.  “Dad don’t….”  He turned to face Saphire.  He had figured she knew what was going on and he planned on getting it out of her.  “Where did they go?”

          Saphire would rather have died than to tell them what the pirates had planned but she figured that the pirates were already done with the first part of the plan.  “They’re on Blaze.”

          “Really?”

          Saphire nodded.

          Leo smacked her left cheek.  “Thanks for a goose chase, princess.”

          Saphire held her cheek as she watched Leo and Russel walk away.  She ran back toward the palace.

 

          Alaska sat in the throne room.  She held a chapter book in her as she read.

          Saphire hurried into the room and sat next to Alaska in her throne.  “Leo and Russel are here.”

          “I know,” Alaska replied as she listened to Saphire speak while she continued to read.

          “Leo smacked me.”

          “WHAT?!” Alaska exclaimed, closing the book without pausing to mark the page.  “Why?”

          “I don’t know.  I told him that the pirates were on Blaze then he smacked me.  By the way, we have to warn Daniel and them.”  She didn’t mention to her sister that Russel was willing to kill her because she didn’t want her sister to worry about her.

 

          Russel and Leo were in the car.  It looked like a cop’s car but it was all black.  Russel sat in the driver’s seat while Leo sat in the passenger seat.

          “This is stupid,” Leo admitted.  “We have to go back to Blaze.  Now Magma’s going to be mad.”

          “Shut up.”  Russel was tired of taking orders from Magma.  The fire princess had been starting to annoy him.  He began hating having a kid give him orders.  He didn’t need that.  “I don’t care about how that brat wants us to do our job.  She doesn’t need to tell us how to do that.”

          “Dad, that’s my niece.”  Leo was getting tired of listening to Magma too but he didn’t want to admit it.

          “I don’t care.”

 

          Leo and Russel were walking to the fire castle a few days later when Keaton and Romano arrived out of nowhere.  Both of the two idiots looked worried.

          “What do you two want?” Russel asked.

          “It’s Princess Magma.”  Keaton was in panic mode.  “She’s gone.  We can’t find her anywhere.”

          “Yea,” Romano agreed.  “She’s gone.”

          “Where all did you look?” Leo asked them, figuring that they hadn’t looked everywhere.

          “The kitchen.”

          “Yea and,” Keaton added, “someone took the ice cream.”

          “Where else did you look?” Leo asked, ignoring the last part of Keaton’s statement.

          “Oh,” Romano admitted, “that was it.  We were looking for the ice cream.”

          “That’s extremely helpful,” Russel spoke with sarcasm in his voice.  “Idiots.”

 

          The four bounty hunters stood in the main hall of the castle.  “Look,” Russel told them, “Magma has to be around here somewhere.  It’s a big castle.  She could be anywhere now split up.” 

Plans

          Zelda, Ben, Larry, Olivia, John, and Zack were hanging out of the deck of the White Rose.

Ben had wrapped an arm around Zelda.  “What are we going to do with Larry?” he asked.

          Zelda hadn’t thought about that.  She had been too amazed that Gregory even let him stay.  “I don’t know,” she admitted.  “I’m shocked that Double D left him here.  So, I guess he’s staying.  I just have to figure out where to put him.”

          “He can have my old bed.”

          “Zack has your old bed.”

          “Oh yea.”

          “He can have it,” Zack replied.  “I don’t care.  Now, that he’s on your crew you can bring me back to Connie.  I don’t care.”  He figured Zelda would consider the thought but his disappointment grew as he watched her shake her head.  He knew it wouldn’t happen any time soon.

          Olivia laughed at Zack’s words.  “I hate to say it, Zack, but because you’re on the White Rose, Zelda’s not going to let you leave.  You’re stuck.”

          “Olivia’s right,” Zelda agreed.  “Sorry.”

          “Crap.”  Zack had tried but had failed.  He couldn’t leave the pirate’s life.

          “Don’t feel bad, bro.”  Zelda tried to cheer him up.  “Think of it this way, you have a better chance at getting a girlfriend now that you’re a pirate than if you were still a bag boy.”

          “I have a girlfriend,” Zack lied.

          “Really?” Olivia asked.  She didn’t believe his words.  “What’s her name?”

          “Emily.”

          “Emily what?” John asked.  He figured it was a lie as well.

          “Emily…. Emily….” Zack surrendered.  He couldn’t keep up with the lie.  He had been a brilliant liar when he was a pirate but once he dropped out of the life as a pirate he lost his skill of lying.  He had no clue how that had happened but it did.  He probably grew use to telling the truth that when he tried to lie, everyone could see right through him.  “Okay, you got me.  I don’t have a girlfriend yet.”

          “Then,” Ben told him, “we’ll help you to look for one.”

          “Yea,” John agreed.  “And we can find a girl for Will as well.”

          “And one for Ryan,” Zelda added, “because even though he was at the wedding, he doesn’t think that Ben and I are married.”

          Ben laughed.

          “He asked you out?” Olivia asked.

          “Yea…. I told him that I was married…. That didn’t get into his head, because he asked again…. Then I told him that I was pregnant.”

          “How did he react to that?” John asked.

          “He was okay with it…. He even said that he’d be the daddy, then I pointed to Ben and told him that Ben was my husband and the daddy of the kid and then he was disappointed and he left.”

          Ben pulled Zelda closer toward him.  “That’s my girl.”

          “I’m going to be an uncle.  Cool!” Larry exclaimed.

          An idea popped into Zelda’s head and she had to change the subject.  “I got it…. Larry can stay on your ship, Olivia.”

          Olivia shook her head.  Her ship didn’t have any more room than Zelda’s had.  “There’s no room on my ship, either.”

          “I’ll sleep on the floor.  I don’t care,” Larry replied.

          “Are you sure?” Zelda asked.

          “Yea….”

          “Okay then…. But how about every night someone else sleeps on the floor to make it fair?”

          “Okay.”  Larry left.

          “Where are we going to go stop some of the bounty hunters?” Ben asked.
