Aaron’s explanation hadn’t helped Zelda feel any better. Instead it only made her fear worse, but she knew that he was only trying to help her feel better. “Yea…. Brain, if you ever get a girlfriend. Don’t tell her about that.”
Olivia, Jeremy, John, Peter were still stuck in the basement along with the two idiot bounty hunters.
“I hope it ends soon.” Olivia wanted to leave as boredom began to take over from waiting. “I want to get out of here.”
“Olivia,” Peter began, “if you’re scared just remember I’m here to hold you.”
John eyed Peter which told him to stay away from Olivia.
“Okay,” Olivia said, kind of amused by Peter’s offer even though she wasn’t really going to take him up on it, “Peter. First of all, I’m not scared and second of all my fiancé is right there.” She had pointed to John as she spoke.
Disappointment filled Peter as Olivia spoke. “Oh.”
“Good try though.”
The wind began to stop and the rattling of the door slowed to a peaceful stop as well.
“Is it over?”
“I don’t know,” John answered. “I’ll check.”
“Be careful.”
John nodded then blew Olivia a kiss. Jeremy helped him to remove the log they had blocking the door from flying open. Once the log was moved, John opened the door and slowly worked his way out.
A few minutes had past as he walked back into the basement. “It’s safe,” John told the others. “You guys can come out now.”
“Good,” Olivia replied.
They worked their way out of the basement a few seconds later and looked around at the damage of the storm but nothing really seemed out of place which was surprising. Keaton and Romano were just as happy the twister had ended and was gone.
“Oh thank you.” Keaton dropped down on his hands and knees as he began to kiss the ground. “Now I’m free.”
“Now we can go because we’re safe,” Romano replied as he did the same.
“Should we capture them now?” Olivia asked John.
“Now would be a good time to capture them,” John agreed, “but because of Peter and Ryan there’s no more room for idiots.”
“Good point. So we can just leave now?”
“Yea.”
The four pirates snuck away as the two bounty hunters continued to kiss the ground with relief.
Ben continued to hold onto Zelda who was now sleeping in his arms. “Zelda, you can wake up now. It’s over,” he told her.
Zelda didn’t seem to wake up at his words. He smiled as she slept. He carefully moved away from her so he wouldn’t wake her up and stood as he picked her up. He worked his way up the stairs as he carried his small beautiful wife.
Olivia and John were on the deck of the White Rose as Ben walked out onto the opening of the deck with Zelda in his arms.
“Ben,” John began, “we’re going….”
“Shhh,” Ben responded.
John looked at Zelda and felt bad when he realized that she was sleeping. “Oh,” he whispered. “Sorry.”
“You can tell me later. Right now, I’m going to bring Zelda to bed.”
“Ben,” Olivia whispered, “when Zelda wakes up tell her that we’re going to Daze.”
“Okay.”
“I think that we should go before another twister comes.” John’s attention was toward the dark gray clouds of another evil storm brewing and he wasn’t in the mood to wait out another storm.
“Good idea,” Ben and Olivia agreed.
Ben brought Zelda to their room.
Once he was inside, he laid Zelda on the bed then removed her boots before covering her up. He went to kiss her forehead. “Sweet dreams, my angel,” Ben whispered. He kissed her forehead and smiled. He left the room.
When he was out on the deck, he noticed the ships were moving off of the planet. Olivia and John worked their way over toward him. “Did you guys find any bounty hunters on Twister?” he asked.
“Yea. We hid in a basement that Keaton and Romano were hiding in during the storm,” Olivia explained.
“Why didn’t you guys capture them?” Ben figured that Keaton and Romano were easy targets because they were too air headed to actually do their jobs. “We could have brought them back to Gregory and them.”
“We know,” John said. “It’s just we don’t want any more idiots on the ships.”
Olivia smiled. She had a feeling he was going to say that. “What do you mean we? It’s just you remember?”
John and Ben laughed. John put his arm around Olivia and kissed her cheek.
Battle FieldZelda woke up and slowly got up out of bed as she looked around her small office. She hadn’t remembered walking into the room so why was she in there? “Ben must have carried me in here and covered me up,” she told herself as she figured out her husband was the reason. She hurried up and left the room.
Zelda looked out onto the deck to see if she could find Ben. She began walking around when she ran into Larry and Zack.
“Captain, what do you want us to do?” Zack asked. He had finally surrendered to the idea that Zelda wasn’t going to bring him back to Connie. He did enjoy being around Zelda and Olivia again though. It had been so long since he had seen anyone else from Ryoko’s crew even though everyone else from the Blue Ram had been murdered. He also wanted to know what had happened for both Zelda and Olivia to renew their friendship after they had been enemies for so long.
“Well,” Zelda began as she started to think, “let’s see. Are we off Twister?”
“Yep.”
“Okay.” Zelda felt the relief feel her bones at the answer. She probably would have cried if they were still on the evil planet. “Is anyone driving?”
“Yea,” Larry answered.
“Alright. Do any of you guys know where we’re going?”
“No,” Zack and Larry spoke together.
“Then nope. You guys can go….”
Zack and Larry began walking off.
Another question had formed in Zelda’s head which she wanted to know. “But first, do either of you know where Ben is?”
Larry turned to face Zelda. “Yea. He’s on the Black Velvet with Olivia and John.”
Zelda smiled. She was glad that one of them knew where her lovable husband was. “Thank you. Now you two can go.”
Larry and Zack walked away, leaving Zelda alone.
Zelda turned her attention toward the Black Velvet and began heading in that direction. She needed to find out what was going on.
Ben, Olivia, and John were in the captain’s office. They were working out a plan.
“We have to figure out where the bounty hunters are so that way we can sneak attack on them,” Olivia spoke up. She had sat down and leaned her body against the dark brown wood of the desk.
“How are we going to do that?” Ben asked.
“I don’t know.”
“We can ask Aaron. He could figure out how to do that,” John replied.
“That’s a good idea.”
Knock, knock, knock.
“Come in!”
The door opened and Zelda walked in then worked her way over to Ben. “What did I miss?”
“Well, we’re going to Daze,” John answered.
“Yea. We’re going to sneak….” Olivia couldn’t help but notice that Zelda was wearing socks. “Where are your boots?”
“What?” Zelda asked as she looked down at her feet. Her boots were missing. “Oh. I don’t know. I didn’t know that they were gone. Ben, did you take my boots off?”
“Yep,” Ben replied.
Zelda smiled at him. “Thanks. Okay, can we get back to the subject?”
“Yea,” Olivia answered.
“So we’re going to Daze?”
“Yea.”
Zelda hated the planet but for a ridiculous reason. “I hate that planet.” She didn’t hate it as much as twister but she didn’t enjoy the thought of going there either.
“Why?” John asked.
“Because that’s the slacker planet.”
“No it’s not.” Olivia felt that Zelda’s reasoning was stupid.
“It is for Peter Pan,” Zelda replied as she shook her head at the thought.
“Why do you say that?”
“Because….”
“Every time we,” Ben continued, “go to Daze, Peter slacks off.” He began laughing. “Like one time, we were there and he fell asleep in dog crap.”
Olivia busted out into laughter. “Interesting…. Why were you guys there?”
“Well,” Zelda replied, “we needed food for us and Max, so we went and got food.” She was the only one who had remained serious while the others couldn’t hold in their laughter.
“Oh.”
Gregory and Jason dragged Magma to Saphire and Alaska as she continued to fright for them to free her. Both cops were on each side of her so she couldn’t escape.
“Don’t fight, Magma,” Gregory told her. “You’re just making it harder for yourself.”
“Shut up, cop.” Magma hated her surroundings and even though she was slowly growing weaker from the cold planet she wasn’t ready to surrender. “I can send my bounty hunters after you and they will kill you,” she threatened.
Gregory knew her threat meant nothing now that she was in custody so he had no need to worry. Instead he just laughed. “How are you going to do that when you’re behind fire proof bars?”
Magma didn’t respond but his question did anger her.
“You’re really cute when you’re mad,” Jason admitted as he looked at Magma.
“Shut up,” Magma told him.
“Dude,” Gregory spoke with shock, “I’m surprised that you haven’t gotten yourself killed yet.”
“What?” Jason asked, confused.
“You don’t say that to an evil fire princess…. She’ll kill you.”
Saphire and Alaska were in the throne room sitting in their thrones. “The guys should be back soon.” Saphire felt worry as they waited for the cops to return, hoping that they were fine.
“Yep,” Alaska agreed. She had a feeling that everything was going to be alright know how the guys watched their backs on missions, dangerous or not; and therefore, unlike her sister she wasn’t worried. “Magma’s probably giving them a hard time.”
Gregory and Jason entered the room, still dragging Magma who had fallen behind them but the chains held her wrist to keep her from wondering off. “We’re back,” Gregory replied, pointing out the obvious.
Alaska stood up and worked her way over toward Gregory. “How was your trip?” She hugged him and kissed his cheek.
He wrapped an arm around her while he still held Magma’s chain in the other hand. He smiled. “Surprisingly relaxing actually.”
Alaska returned the smile. “Good.”
“Now isn’t this nice…. Aren’t you morons going to lock me up?” Magma
