walked over to them. "I thought that you hated dogs?" Paul asked.
"I did too," Scott agreed. "But I guess that he only like dogs, because the captain loves dogs, and he doesn't want to say that he hates dogs in front of her."
"Yea. Because he likes the captain, and she likes dogs, and he doesn't want Ben to take his girlfriend."
"I don't like her, guys," Jeremy said, standing up kind of mad.
Peter walked over to them, excited. "HEY, GUYS! Guess what?"
"What?"
"Ben and Captain Zelda are married, and the captain's going to have a kid.... You guys know what that means.... WE'RE GOING TO BE UNCLES! Isn't that great?"
Jeremy was really mad now. "NO!"
"Well, man, you're late." Scott acted like he felt bad for Jeremy. "Ben got to her before you did."
Ben and Zelda had just walked onto the ship. Paul and Jeremy walked over to them. "So, you two are married?" Paul asked.
"No," Zelda said.
"Good," Jeremy said to himself. "I don't care who the daddy is of the child," he said to Zelda as he got down on one knee and took her left hand, "so, Captain Zelda Samara Griffen, will you marry me?"
Paul's mouth dropped. Peter and Scott just stared at them, and Ben just stood there, shocked.
Zelda, on the other hand, was mad. She took her hand away from Jeremy. "First of all, I'm not pregnant, that was a lie, and second of all, I'm not going to marry you or anyone else on this ship." She turned to face Ben. "This is why I don't like that lie," she told him. She walked into her office, mad.
"Scott, get the ship off the planet. Paul, bring Max some food, then go and wake up Austin and Ray," Ben ordered.
"Yes, Ben," Scott and Paul said. They walked away.


Olivia was in the captain's office of the Black Velvet, talking to John, and she was really mad. "I can't believe that I let her get away again. Next time, I will kill her and I mean it too. I'm not going to let Zelda live...."
"Captain Olivia," John cut her off, "she's an easy target, but she comes up with ways to get out of a fight, if she sees an opening...."
"What are you saying?"
Ryan walked in.
"I'm saying that we should trap Captain Zelda and it will be easier for you to kill her, captain."
Olivia smiled. "I like the way you think, John."
"Please don't kill Captain Zelda," Ryan said.
Olivia's face expression changed. "Why not?"
"Because she could be the one."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, when I'm around her.... I could be myself. And I like that about her."
Olivia was mad. "YOU'RE CRUSHING ON THE ENEMY!"
"It's just that she's so pretty."
John smacked Ryan in the back of the head.
"OW!"
"Thanks, John."
"No problem, captain."
"Why are you mad at me?" Ryan asked.
"John, get Ryan out of here."
"Yes, captain." John pushed Ryan out of the door. "Don't say anything, man. You don't have anything bad to say about the enemy so keep your mouth shut."
"But...."
"Shut up."
"You're not my mother or father so I don't have to listen to you."
"No, but I can have you thrown overboard."
"Okay. I'll shut up."


Leo was waiting to talk to Princess Magma on Blaze, while Keaton and Romano were joking around and telling funny stories.
"So...." Keaton said to Romano. "When I was a little boy, my dad would take me fishing for birds and hunting for fish...."
"Wait a minute, your dad would take you fishing for birds and hunting for fish?"
"Yep."
"Did it work?"
"Nope, that just shows you that my dad was a real idiot."
Magma walked into the room. "What are ya'll doing back?" she asked Leo.
"Well," he said, walking over to her, "I found out which space pirate that Olivia is going to capture."
"Really. Who?"
"Zelda."
Magma had to think. "Zelda? Zelda?" She remembered. "Oh. You mean the space pirate, Ryoko's, cousin."
Leo smiled. "Yes, your highness."
Magma was mad. "YOU IDIOT! She isn't going to capture Zelda.... She's going to kill her."
Leo was confused. "Isn't that a good thing?"
"No, because I want to kill her."
"Oh."
"I want to kill Zelda, and I don't want anyone else to.... Not even you, Leo."
"But, your highness, I'm a bounty hunter. It's my job to kill space pirates."
"I know. But if I tell you not to kill a space pirate, then don't." She was really mad. "And now, I want you to go and tell that lying, no good pirate, Olivia, that if she kills Zelda then I'll kill her instead. NOW GO!"
Leo bowed his head. "Yes, your highness." He turned to face Keaton and Romano. "Come on, you two. We need to go now."
"Yes, sir," they said.
Leo, Keaton, and Romano left. Magma walked over to her throne. She sat down. The throne room of the fire castle looked pretty much like the throne room in the ica palace. There was only one table which was in between the two red thrones and nothing on top of the table. The carpet was red instead of blue. "I knew that I shouldn't of trusted that pirate. They're all liars and cheaters," she said to herself. Trusting Pirates

Saphire and Alaska were in the throne room of the ice palace. Alaska was mad. "I can't believe that you would make a deal with a pirate, and not just any pirate, but the most wanted pirate on this planet. Saphire, what happened to you? Ever since mom and dad died, it's like you changed."
Saphire was confused. "How did you know that I made a deal with a pirate?"
"Gregory told me."
"Gregory?"
"Yes Gregory."
"I should of known that your boyfriend was going to tell you."
"First of all, he's not my boyfriend, and second of all, when were you going to tell me that you made a deal with Zelda?"
Saphire turned her head away and looked down with shame. She didn't have an answer to her sister's question.
Alask dropped her mouth, really mad. "You weren't ever going to tell me, were you?" she asked.
Saphire still didn't have anything to say.
Alaska started to cry. "Why don't you tell me these things anymore, Saphire? It's like you're someone else, because my sister would tell me if she does something that wasn't good for the kingdom.... But I have to hear it from someone else, because my sister would sink so low to trust a pirate that ain't ever coming back." She paused and shook her head. "I don't want to talk to you about this anymore.... What would mom and dad say about this if they were still here?" She left the room, crying.
Daniel walked in as Alaska left. He figured out what was said. "Princess Saphire, I think that what you did was wrong," he said, "especially because you do talk to Alaska about these things."
Saphire was sad. She was ashamed of herself. "I know, Daniel. But some times, I feel that life is too short and that you should take risk, and that's what I did. I know that there's an one percent chance that Zelda's not going to break the deal, and a ninety-nine percent chance that she's going to break the deal. I made that deal to take a risk.... Not because I trust a pirate, but just to take that chance. What if Zelda keeps the deal?"
Daniel shrugged his shoulders. "Then that means that she doesn't want to be in jail until the day she dies, but what if she doesn't keep the deal?"
"Then she'll be in jail until the day she dies."


Zelda was in the office of the White Rose. She had her head down on the desk, sad. "Why me? Why me?" she asked herself.
Someone knocked on the door.
She lifted her head up. "COME IN!"
Ben walked into the room. "Sorry about what happened earlier."
Zelda leaned back in the chair. "Well, that's okay. I just don't like that lie.... Any other lie, I don't care about, but that one makes me mad.... Especially, because Peter Pan believed it."
"Yea." Ben smiled. "But it was kind of funny."
Zelda also smiled. "Yea. It was kind of funny. Hey, Ben." She stood up and walked over to him. "Thanks for saving me. I don't know what I would have done if you didn't show up."
"No problem, captain."
Max walked into the room and walked over to Ben. Ben patted him on the head.
"Hi, Max. Where you a good boy?"
Max howled.
"I guess that's a yes."
Zelda sat on her knees next to Max and patted him. "Max isn't a bad boy.... He's a pirate wolf.... He's cute too," she said.
Max stuck his long, pink tongue out.
"Yes, you are. Yes, you are," she said to Max, talking to him like he was a baby. "You're mommy's baby. Yes, you are."
Ben smiled. He enjoyed watching Zelda play with Max. Everyone knew that even though Max was an old wolf, older than all of them put together, he was still the baby of the ship. "Well, I'm going to hang out with Paul and Scott. okay," Ben said. He started to leave the room.
"Okay. I'll be out there later."
"Alright." Ben left the room.
Zelda stood up and shut the door. "I like him so much, but I don't know how to tell him," she said to Max.
Max just looked at her as if to ask "What are you talking about?"
Zelda smiled. "I know. You don't need to look at me like that. You're the only baby on this ship, and it's going to stay like that too." She walked over to her bed and sat down. "You know, Max. I see everyone, but Ben, as a brother, well, Germany more like a second cousin twice removed."


Paul and Scott were on the deck, playing a card game. "Do you have any.... Threes?" Scott asked.
"Go fish," Paul answered.
Scott picked up a card. "Okay." He looked at the card. "Crap."
Ben walked over to them and sat on a chair on one side of the table. "What are you guys playing?" he asked.
"Go fish," Scott said.
"Oh. That's a game for little kids."
"We don't care, it's something to do," Paul replied.
"Whatever."
"So, what did you and your girlfriend talk about?"
"She's not my girlfriend, and I told her sorry for what happened today.... She probably likes some other guy anyways." Ben kind of had a hard time thinking positive.
"Honestly," Scott started, "I don't think she does. I think that she likes you, but she don't want to say anything."
Ben smiled a little. "I wish."
"I agree with him. You're a funny guy, and girls, like Captain Zelda, like that in guys...."
"Yea. You're also tough, that's something else that they like in a guy. Captain Zelda doesn't want to admit that she's fallin'
