Troubles on the high seas. (Pony)

"relax I'm not going to drop you. You can trust me. How do you think I would bring aboard prisoners during raids they always arrived just fine" she said softly they soon arrived at the location and she gently set him on the ground then landed next to him and shifted back to her natural form "enjoy the flight?"

Sanchez didn't get much time to comment, as he started to dust himself off when he stood upright, a loud thunder cracked the stillness of the area. A second later, a spray of red blasted out the center of his back. Falling to his knees, Sanchez looked down at his chest, in the center was a hole nearly 8 mm in diameter. "what...Is..." he muttered, then fell over on his side, dead.

A moment later, Allen brushed past the undergrowth surrounding the area, with a British made Bolt Action Sniper Rifle slung over his shoulder. "good thing you got here when you did." he said, "otherwise you'd have been on the wrong end of a rival groups attack on Sanchez's ship." he explained.

Aria looked over at Allen "well you can collect your bounty you no longer need me I will be back at your place to collect my things" she said softly she walked away and flew off to head to his island she got inside and went to the room she had worked in she grabbed her bag and stuffed her things in there she sat down tiredly her mind was flooding wiht what she had done she felt filthy like whore for sleeping with Sanchez but he was dead now.

Allen sighed some as Aria left. He watched for a moment, waiting till she was out of sight before he pulled out a small digital camera to take Sanchez's photo with. "you are truly one worthless pain in the ass Sanchez." he said, if the man wasn't already dead, he'd have put another bullet or two in the mans chest. with a unneeded kick to the shoulder, Allen turned Sanchez over onto his back and started to field strip the corps. checking for anything the would ID the man as Sanchez just to be safe before he stood over the dead man, and centered the camera's lens on the face.

with a flash, the photo was taken, and stored on the memory chip. he had about two hours left before the battle fleet was on Sanchez's ship. he had no doubt in his mind that no one on it would survive, but he wanted his cut, so he had to send the picture now. Retrieving the chip from the camera, he slipped it into a P.D.A. and uploaded it. setting it into an email, he sent the photo off to the various nations that all wanted him for some reason or other, sure he could have captured Sanchez and take him in, but he'd lose sever pieces of the money pie, with Sanchez dead, he'd only be able to collect about half from those that wanted him alive, and full from the few that wanted him either way. all and all, he'd have 5.2 million US dollars in his private Swiss account by this evening. With the emails all time-stamped. it was little doubt about that.

With another sigh, Allen packed up and set out for home, he hoped he'd catch Aira before she left, but no way he'd know if he did or not.

She laid down for a short nap, she needed to rest a bit before she could travel again carrying Sanchez to the trap and then the flight here had left her exhausted. She fell into a light sleep. She knew she couldn't stay here she knew she would never mean anything to this man so why bother. She rested peacefully for about two hours then she got up and washed up a little bit she sighed looking at herself in the mirror "I can't believe what I have become" she whispered she was ashamed of everything she'd done the past few days. First she slept with this complete stranger then she slept with Sanchez that pig, what was next she was no better than a common prostitute in her eyes but she knew she'd had no choice it was what needed to be done to survive.

Allen sat in his monitoring room, watching as Sanchez's ship tried to fight against 5 other ships launched salvo after salvo of ordinance at the ship. ripping it to shred. "What a waist of firepower." he muttered as something sparked a larger secondary explosion ripped through the watercraft. he didn't need to any more to know what was going to happen next, his own experience.

turning away, he heard Aria moving around upstairs. "Aria?" he called, moving upstairs as well. "Aria?" he asked, knocking on her door. "Something wrong?"

Aria opened the door "I was just resting a bit before I leave for my trip" she said softly. She knew she was worthless to him he had gotten what he wanted so she no longer had purpose. "there's no need for me here anymore I did what I came to do now I should go" she said softly. She grabbed her bag and brushed passed him to leave, right now she was confused and hurting and she didn't know anything else but to run it's what she always did.

Allen frowned some but gently grasped her arm as she started to brush past him. "Aira? is something the matter? you don't seem to be your self" he said, pausing some as he thought of something to say next, but what could he say to wondering soul like her,but the fact that she wanted to leave. "I guess you're going huh? I wont stop you but umm, Aira, will I see again?" he asked, loosening his already light grip, and eventually let her go. he didn't want to hold her down.

"I doubt it what would be the point in me coming back. And nothing is wrong" she said softly she stopped turning and looking at him. She kissed him softly on the lips "I have no reason to come back or to stay for that matter" she said looking him in the eyes her eyes seemed to be searching for a reason of some kind looking inside him. She leaned in pressing her lips gently against his and holding them their. If he asked she might stay one night but would just be gone the next morning before he awakened.

Allen smiles some as she kissed him. "Is a point really needed?" he asked, as she looked into his eyes, he looked back into hers. "I would like to see you again, Aira" he said softly, before they kissed once more, slowly he set his hands on her waist gently. slowly he pulled back, Can you stay Aira, for one more night, please?" he asked

Aria looked up at him "I guess I can stay for one more night" she said softly. She slowly pressed against him "I know I'm not going to be anything more than some girl you keep a secret from woman you eventually decide to marry and you know what I'm ok with that. Because that is the kind of girl I've always been." she said softly. She kissed him deeply "but lets not let that bother us tonight" she whispered she took him by the hand and pulled him over to the bed sliding in.

Allen smiled some more as she lead him to the bed and slid into it, "IU know it may not make much difference to you, Aira," he said, sliding into the bed as well, he gently kissed her on the lips, "But I'm too much a lone wolf to merry anyone." he said, still holding onto her hand, he wrapped his other around her, gently setting his hand on her lower back to gently hold her close.

She looked over at him "some day you'll find another loner that isn't afraid to settle down" she whispered softly she leaned against him as they laid there "and don't look at me like that." she said softly. She kissed him deeply rolling on top of him "I know I won't ever be anything more than some one woman you worked with to become rich. That's all I'll ever be" she whispered. She kissed him again waiting to see what he wanted from this night.

"I had a better reason for killing him then just the money Aria" he said, looking up at her, his smile faded slightly "Sanchez killed my father 10 years ago, not just my father but the whole crew of the ship he served on." he explained, but then smiled a bit more, "But thats the past, the money is just a nice bonus for give the man what he deserved" he added. as he spoke, his hands softly roamed her back.

"I am sorry for what happened." she whispered "I hated him because I was nothing to him and I knew every time he touched me." she softly kissed his neck and along his collar bone. "but enough of that talk" she said and smiled a bit at him. She reached down sliding his shirt up as she continued kissing his neck playfully. She started caress the skin of his neck with her teeth to tease him a bit.

"it was a long time ago." he said, gently lifting her chin as he leaned in, kissing her gently on the lips. as he kissed her, he wrapped his arms around her,running his hands over her back lightly. when he pulled back, he smiled and pulled his shirt off completely, throwing it aside. "For such a beautiful woman," he started, as she nipped at his neck. "you are a tease."

Aria smirked she moved in close to him pressing against him. "I'm no tease. A tease implies I hold something in front of you that you can not have" she said softly she turned her back on him taking a step away from him playing a bit hard to get just to be playful. She knew he desired her but she would be gone in the morning just like always she might return but she doubted it she had no reason to stay or to return. He would probable forget her the instant she left she knew she couldn't possibly mean anything to him.

Allen smiled as she stepped away, but she didn't get but that one step before he wraps his arms around her lightly. "Well, a tease can mean different things, and i ment that you are a tease in a good way." he said, before he emulated what she had down to him. kissing and softly biting her on her neck. as he gently held her, rubbing her sides in his hands once more. He knew she'd be gone in the morning, so he wanted to make the night memorable for her, maybe give her a reason to come back if she so choices to.

She smirked and tilted her head to the side allowing him more access to her neck she reached back running her fingers through his hair. She slowly started to turn around pressing her lips firmly against his. She had no reason to stay beyond tonight he didn't need her. She pressed her body against his at least when they had sex it felt like it meant something.

Allen smiled warmly as he kissed her back, holding her as she pressed her body against him. holding the kiss for a moment, he rubbed her back gently, messaging her through her clothing before he pulled back. with a now playful smile he quickly swept her up into his arms. waiting for a few seconds to gauge her reaction before leaning his head down, kissing her on the lips once again.

She raised an eyebrow "and what are you thinking"s he whispered just before he kissed her then she kissed him back deeply and passionately. She slid her arms to wrap around his neck, she slid her hand down undoign his pants while he was distracted letting them fall down around his ankles.

he felt what she was doing to his pants, and smiled some as they fell to the floor, with out hesitating, he stepped out of the now discarded pants and pulled back from the kiss. "What I am thinking," he started, still smiling at her as he leaned down while lifting her a bit higher so that he could once more kiss and nibble at her neck, "is that would like to give you as good a night, if not better, then the one we unexpectedly had." he explained between kisses.

"oh really and how do you plan to do that?" she whispered leaning down to lightly nip his ear. She shifted in his grasp to wrap her legs around his hips "it might help to move to the bed you might drop me and I can't have that. I don't like to fall" she whispered. She kissed his neck softly "are you going to try to be romantic because I'm not really the romantic type you should know at least that much about me"

"I figured you weren't you didn't really seem the type," he said, as he did as she suggested, and carried her to the bed. "but can you blame me for trying?" he asked as he playfully nibbled on her neck, as he carefully laid her down. slowly he slid his right hand under the back of her shirt, messaging her bare skin as his lips moved down her neck, to her shoulder and collarbone.

She slid her hand down undoing the leather straps that kept her dress tightly fitted to her bodice. She lifted her arms up to let him remove them from her body. She arched her back pressing her body up against his. "you are welcome to try you are sweet I like some sweet but not too much."
