Troubles on the high seas. (Pony)

Rouge pirate Allen Cain sat on the small one man bridge of his small ship, making best speed in the dead of a moonless night from port. the reason being. he was running from a ship of another group of pirates. but because he was scared. No, the silver haired captain wasn't scared of these rivals, he was running because he had snatched up someone they wanted. a former pirate. he didn't understand why they wanted her, but he wanted to find out why. so Allen did what what any smart pirate rouge would do. he kidnapped her before his rivals could get her.

"A.P.A.C. set course for way point Gamma-Delta-Zero-Niner-Zero, Maximum speed, and engage stealth systems." he said, speaking to the small crafts automated control program. the small LCD screen in front him on the control scrolled a text message, confirming its' orders. with in seconds the craft started to speed up. with a satisfied grin he watched the speed counter steadily rise, 50 knots, 60 knots, 70 knots. at 75 knots Allen pushed the pilot chair back before turning the chair around 90 degrees. and stood. even as the craft steady increased its speed, it was hardly felt by those on board as the ships dampeners almost eliminated the feeling of it.

Confident in the computers care of the ship, sat back and watched the monitors before him, he had to keep an eye on this prize less she slips away.

Aria was seated in a chair she was slowly coming back to consciousness they had knocked her out, she looked up slowly seeing the captain "untie me or you will regret ever taking me on board" she said softly she flipped her hair out of her face and cracked her neck she was a bit stiff "I don't do this crap anymore" she said groggily. Her long curly dark brown hair fell down her back "why did you bring me here?" she asked coldly this man had no idea who he was dealing with. She focused her energy as she readied for attack if he failed to comply. "now release me before I make every single person on this boat regret the day they entered this world.

"Trust me, " Allen said to her. "comparatively speaking, I would rather not have done what this, but I wasn't left much choice, what with those cut throats from the Black legion after you." he explained. , leaning forward in his chair. "though if you want out, I'll be happy to do so." he added. Allen Cain wasn't a uncivilized man, as some would think of a rouge pirate. standing he cleared the few steps between then and very easily untied her bonds. "Where are my manners." he said, as he walked back to his seat, "My name is Allen Cain. and to correct you numerical mistake, the only occupants on this humble ship of mine are You, madam Aria, and I." he explained. leaning back, he laced his fingers together. "so any idea why the Legion is after you?" he asked, after a moment of thought.

Aria glared at him "I owe you no information on that matter. that is entirely for mind alone and no one elses I don't really care what you want I demand I be taken back before I destroy this thing and leave you out here to drown." she said coldly she stood up adjusting her clothing "I am no longer a part of this nonsense I left long ago and do not plan to ever return. I don't care who you are but you know who I am and therefore you should know enough of me to answer your own questions" she said simply moving away from him she was unarmed minus her skills.

"That may be so." He said, calmly, despite her anger toward him, "but that does not explain a flurry of unknowns, namely Why is the Legion after you if you have nothing to do with that sort of business any longer?" Allen said, making out to sound like a question instead of a statement. "but if you wish to return the jaws of the beast, very well. It's your choice."

"you know nothing of why they seek anyone I do not consort with these sorts of people anymore." she said irritated, a snake started to slither down her arm coming from the tattoo she had of a snake coiled on her right shoulder she lifted her arm pointing it at him "however I do need to know what you know of what they want." she said coldly she wasn't going to go anywhere without some kind of information.

The silver haired pirate eyed her snake for a moment before turning his now cold gaze back to her face. "I'd highly recommend against that." he warned, and pressed a button on the arm of his chair, causing a access panel directly between them to open up. "For if I die. so will you, my dear. this ship is linked to my heart beat, so if i die, /This/ will go off" he spoke, still calmly, as a device rises from the bowls of the ship, it did have any markings but save one, a large sticker on both sides of it, marking it as nuclear.

"Maybe this will make things bit clearer, now if I were you I'd calm yourself, I have no intentions of hurting you, and the binding were for your own good." he stated. "I even untied when you more or less demanded it, hell those were not even that tightly tied." he said. "As for what I know the Legion wanted wanted with you, your guess is as good as mine, my dear. Perhaps you stole something from one of them? a bounty maybe even? God only knows what those rejects from Davie-johns' locker wanted. but I do intend to find out." he said.

"I already know I was hoping you might know more of their intentions but I already know for the most part. and why did you take me from them? am I a bargaining chip so you can regain some pathetic essence of your old life. Don't waste your time having me here won't do you any good" She walked over to what looked like her exit and looked out she knew what they wanted all too well. She knew they wanted to use her all she ever was to them was a tool then she left after the leader had tried to force her into something she would never do. "what do you want me to do just sit here and wait till you figure this mess out or have I done my part I had a good life going for me why did you have to come screw it up."

"Actually." he said, "I do not know their intentions, but i have a feeling it would not be a pleasant experience." he explained. "as you very well know, before they came along, we pirates had a code. we never killed the helpless. but then they broke it, Their raids are the bloodiest in the history of modern pirating." Turning around to face his controls he watched the LCD screens in front of him. "But I didn't screw up your good thing, they did when they found you." he said. "And it looks we're far from them now." he added. when moving at over 100 knotical miles an hour tended to do that. Near as Allen could tell from his screens, they were not being followed. "I'm not going to use you as bargaining chip. but I do need you help with something." he stated. thinking it best to put the nuke away, he deactivated it, letting it slip back into the lower innards of the ship.

"I do not want any part in this mess but what do you want?" she asked coldly. She slowly turned around to look at him "what is it you want from me if you want the same as they I will not allow it" she said softly. She made eye contact with him "and I will be treated respectfully" she walked a bit closer to him "and its rude to sit while your guest stands"

"You got our of your seat." he said calmly. "And i live by a code. a code that keeps me from a prisons death row." he added, then when it registered what she said he turned slightly "what did you mean, 'what they wanted you to do for them'?" he asked. he knew the snake came from no where, infact it came from her, he guessed that. the question he wanted to know, one that came back to what they wanted with her in the first place, was why.

"I am a tool to them and nothing more or at least that's what I thought for a long time before their leader came to me... lets just say I wish not what they desire. I am a woman who kills, fights, and hurts but has no purpose until that night and it was purpose I did not want." she said softly she looked him in the eyes she was sure he would understand.

Allen nodded slight. "I'll leave the subject at that then, but I don't need your help in that sort of way. What I need your help with is luring out their leader." he said before turning his gaze to watch the black abyss from out beyond the front viewport. He frowned slightly to himself, for he could not see the sea. with out thinking, he recited a part of a poem he read once.

"Sea, oh sea, when will I see you again?
Everytime I went to sleep, I think of you as a sweet dream
And when I'm sad, my memories of you will cheer me up"

he said it softly, leaning to the side of his chair.

"you want me to lure and bring a man close that I hate he trusts me but I do not want to ever have to be near him again why should I help you? what benefit does it serve me." she said softly. She eyed him carefully she did not trust him now that he had suggested that.

"Simple. I get the godless bastards head, and destroy the worst group of lawless pirates to sail the seven seas, you can go back to your life knowing there is no chance in hell you ever see him, his men, or me for that matter, ever again." he said turning to her again. "All I'm asking is to get him close, nothing more. Afterwords, you have my word that you'll never see me again." he added.

"so you want me to get close to him seduce him and get him to let his guard down then kill him one problem with that plan you see after him there will just be another one just like him and another one after that.I know I can protect myself but I'm putting myself through a lot of risk for very little reward. come on I'm a business woman not hero." she said softly. She sat down crossing her legs "but you do have my attention so start talking and I don't have an issue with you as long as I don't become a tool. so you don't have to go away. You did nothing to me except annoy the shit out of me for a little bit but I will get even for that." she said softly.

"I know you can look after yourself, judging by that snake you pulled from nowhere." Allen said. "but you're right in what you say, others will likely take Captain Sanchez's place to fill the void left by his death, but they will meet his end just the same" he explained, once again turning to face her. "but if you want something in return, you'll be compensated for what your troubles." he added.

as she spoke, a light blinked to life on his arms rest, meaning they were close to the intended destination. Deciding not to interrupt her for this, he punched in a code to allow the computers systems to bring the small ship to his hidden dock. it would be another few moments before he had to get out of the bridge to secure his craft into place, so he wasn't worried. "yes well..." he started, leaning forward slightly, I truly am sorry for annoying you as i did. but you must know that Sanchez's men were waiting for you to return home, and i thought it best to get to you before they did." he explained.

Aria smirked and shook her head she moved in close to him she lips right next to his "I suppose I owe you a thank you then for kidnapping me to keep them from doing the same to me what would you like in return" she whispered a soft warm breath played across his ear lobe " I may continue to assist you after I kill sanchez but I make no promises after all I am a wild one but as usual any hero deserves something" she said softly she grabbed his chin turning it to her she eyed him carefully then kissed his softly gently running her tongue across his lips then pulled away. she walked over to an open area of floor "I need a good rest before I do this."

To say he was stunned for a moment was a slight understatement, but he quickly recomposed himself before speaking again. "We'll be docking soon." he said, then cleared his throat. he found her sudden change, while strange and slightly exciting, it was also frighting on some levels. he knew right then never to cross her, and made a mental note not to, for fear that she'd likely kill him in his sleep if he did. "just have a seat while we do dock, afterwords I'll take you to the guest quarters so you can rest." he said, standing, he walked to the back of the bridge and opened the do. leading to the top of the ship so he could prepare to tie off the ship once they docked.

Back off the coast of the port city the two had left, Captain Sanchez was finally receiving news that their prey had gone missing. In fact, it even looked like some one had beaten his men to her. "Dammit all to fucking hell!" he roars. throwing a glass of wine across the room letting the crystal item shatter to fragments from his angry outburst on the steel wall of his massive ship. "who got to her, i want to know ASAP!" the large Mexican pirate said, almost shouting.

Aria smirked seeing his reaction "I take it you liked your reward there may be more in future if you assist me when I need it" she whispered eyeing him carefully, he wasn't bad looking not at all. She wasn't afraid to show attraction to anyone it's just how she was. She feared nothing her reaction to something that most people would fear was to get really angry. "I will have to remake my gear it will make this job much easier.I know how to get his attention he likes women who aren't afraid of pain and who aren't afraid to show a little skin. which requires my old attire do you have any fabric? and leather straps" she said softly.

"If it'll get him in our little trap, I'll give you the finest, sheerest silks to use as you please" Allen called down to her, and more then likely, he would too. "but yes, I've got fabrics and leather, just name a color and I'll hunt it down for ya." he added, watching as the dock got closer and closer, when it was just a few meters away, the ships engines cut off, bringing the ship to a slow and easy glide into dock. Jumping off with the front tie off rope in hand Allen quickly secured the front of the ship before jumping back on board, and did the same with the aft end of the boat.

Aria smirked up at him she jumped off the boat "I need a dark gray light weight and it breaths nicely but isn't see through I also need dark brown leather I can make my own gear it always comes out better when I make it myself. And trust me I'll have him to you in less than a week I know how to maneuver him after all how do you think I escaped him so easily. "I will need you to take a look at the attire though when I finish I need a mans opinion. I also don't want to look like I intend to seduce him" she said softly.

"Those I believe I have plenty of, but I'm not positive. I've not checked my inventory in a while" he said, as he pretended to brush dust from his gloved hands. "but still" he continued, "I'll show you my warehouse and let you pick out what exactly you want, I'm sure that you want to gather it now. This away please" he said, and started toward a ramp leading up a beach tucked away in a lagoon. it was impossible to tell where exactly they were, but the whole area was protected by a large rock cliff wall. up on the the beach were just two building, obviously built for two different purposes. the larger of the two was tin metal building, apparently the warehouse Allen mentioned a moment ago. a few yards to the right side was a smaller building, a well maintained colonial two-story home. "Home sweet home." he muttered to himself, smiling slightly to himself as well.

Aria followed him looking around a bit curiously she was not fond of being so far out but she did not mind it. It was nice to be somewhere that she was free. She followed him down to the warehouse she looked around at all the things he had she picked out the things the needed along with a bit of rubber for the boots she intended to make she preferred this attire it was comfortable and she had warn it for years. She smirked a bit at him "are you looking forward to the little show you get when I finish." she teased. grazing his neck softly with her lips toying with him a bit.

Aleen jerked his head to the side slightly as her lips grazed his neck, he was not use to those kind of actions, as he had been at least two years since he'd been in such close proximity to someone, and likely just as long since he's had to deal with a woman in this sort of manner. her action, when combined with her looks, and she was quite the looker he had to admit, made it slightly difficult to deal the blood that was almost unwantingly rushing to certain parts of his body. he easily fought down the rush to his face, but that just redirected it lower. "Have everything you need?" he asked, pausing a moment to hear her response before he spoke again. "then let me show to the room you can stay in." he said, before leading her to the house.
