"Uh, frau?"

"Hm. . Let me sleep a little longer please Joan." I mumble turning over on my bed covering the other side of my head,

"Frau. . Who is Joa-"

"N-Nothing!" I mumble quickly sitting up and frowning, I really dislike morning's especially when your being woken up by a certain Prussian. "If you wouldn't mind allowing your Captain to get changed." I move my two feet onto the cold wooden floor boards brushing my hand through my hair sighing.

"Ah, right right. Entschuldigung Maddeline." He spoke as he moved out of the cabin room and out onto the deck, sighing I stood up moving towards the chest that laid at the bottom of my bed, reaching for my white blouse, shorts, coat and boots. I wasn't stuffed wearing my hat we're more then half-way there. Quickly bounding my chest and thoroughly brushing my hair and placing it in a pony tail, I walk out of the cabin and up the stairs to the main deck. We didn't sleep in the captain's quarter's since. . well how would three people find a place to sleep in there? Especially if there was a young girl sleeping with two other young men in the room as well, yeah that won't go around to well.

"Bonjour à tous!" I yell out as I head towards the front of the ship, getting a few greetings on the way. The smell of the salty sea and the fresh breeze hitting my face as I lean my arms onto the wooden railing. A few seagulls flying above us, meaning that we're not to far from land maybe. . a few more hours left? I rested my head on the open palm of my right hand.

"Bonjour," I hear a harsh yet soft like voice behind me, lifting my head and turning slightly I am met with violet eyes and wavy dirty blonde hair,

"Ah, hello there frèrot." I spoke smiling softly before standing up straight and turning and then realising that the man here wasn't Matthew. ."Ah! Mes excuses! I-I didn't see you there. I-I thought you were, uh, My little bro- I mean Matthew!" I stumbled my brows furrowed, my cheeks most likely red. He chuckled waving his hand in front of him, he was smiling. . this was the first time I saw him smile like that ever since he came aboard. Wait! What am I thinking! Maddeline Williams Bonnefoy stop it!

"No it's fine really. Everyone's eating, are you going to come join us?" He asked his smile leaving his face slowly as he turned looking back over his shoulder at me, I quickly nodded running up to him walking downstairs once again, and going towards the kitchen. Walking down those halls are hell when it comes to food, you can literally hear the men screaming and yelling, singing and dancing, tapping of the cutlery and the dishes. It can, and will be hell.

"Bella, ciao!" I heard a chirpy voice, I looked towards the table at the back and there sat Lovino and what was his name again. . Feliciano I think. Next to them was Matthew whom sat next to Gilbert, following Matt I took a seat sighing and placing my head in my hands, I wasn't too hungry but a little thirsty. A clash of swords were heard behind me, my head perking up and looking towards the direction of the sound. Wait. . why are the men acting so dru- don't tell me someone led them towards the alcohol. Oh great, such fun.

"You chienne! You stole my gold!"

"Yeah right, connard! You were the one who stole my wife!"

"You were the one who divorced her!"

I am not going to get a throbbing head because of this. Taking out my pistol I aimed it at the wooden boards above their heads, I'm not going to tolerate these drunkards disturbing my freaking peace. Shooting twice everyone grew quiet as they turned towards me their face growing in horror, or was it that they were scared?

"Now you idiots listen to me! If your going to drink and get drunk in the morning or afternoon, you can live without food for 24 hours and you can go up to your stations right now and scrub the decks!" I yell out to which they all shook their heads apologising in their native tongue. "That was a bloody order! GO NOW!" I reply louder the men rushing out to their decks, on the way getting some buckets, soap and scrubs. I am not, and will not tolerate this, not with this headache. Moving towards the kitchen I look around for the chef but it didn't take me long to find that he was on the ground, dropping to the ground I shake him trying to awake him.

"M-Maddeline a-are you oka- no. God no." I hear Lovino behind me dropping down on his knees bringing the attention of Matt, Matthew, Gilbert and Feliciano. Matthew being the one who studied first-aid checked his pulse before looking down and shaking his head.

"Maddie. . There is no life left in chef." He spoke sadly to which I stood up and walked towards chef's room, gathering his bed sheet and walking back to where he laid dead, I place the sheet over the lifeless body.

"I'll send some men down here to get him, he belongs to the sea. ."

"Land ahoy!" Yelled one of the men, the others cheering. But what can you expect we've been out at sea for a good long week and now it's time to celebrate their retirement and our success. A light chuckle leaving my throat as I dock the ship, quickly going down into the captain's quarters, my belongings were there and some maps and such I needed were there. This ship was being sold along with the cargo that was aboard. Francis said he had a new ship prepared for my birthday. . I guess this is probably the best birthday.

"Men! You know what your last orders are! After I expect you all to be in the pub for a drink! My shout!" I yell out happily, the men cheering louder then ever making, the three captains, and the 'prisoners' laughing. As we took our belongings and checked in at the nearby home-stay we had the day to spend exploring. I had changed, my hair tied up. Placing on a short navy blue skirt with white over-the-knee high socks, brown boots and a white blouse. I didn't have to hide my identity now did I?

"Sœr, are you ready?" My brother called out as he awaited in the halls, I quickly took my little satchel, placing some gold and silver coins into it, an apple and some bullets. Quickly attaching the small throwing knife to my upper thigh and attaching another one on my upper arm and then wrapping my gun belt and cutlass belt around my hip, pistol on my left, cutlass on my right.

"Oui! Ready! Now let's celebrate!" I smile widely as Lovino scans me and shakes his head mumbling something like 'you are over-protective' or something. Walking through the streets wasn't all too bad, getting a few snickers, smirks and dirty looks we still got through without any issues, Thankfully.

I walked behind the two boys, we formed some sort of a V shape while walking. I was quiet most of the time, the boys on the otherhand spoke every so often about small things, weaponary, plans and such.

"Hey, dollface why don't you come over with me? We'll have more fun then you could ever do with them~" My wrist gets pulled back I turn to face a tanned man, probably around my age. With brown shaggy like hair, and a gravity defying cow lick and a few piercings here and there.

Pulling my arm out of his grip I frown, I was agitated. "Non, afterall why would a young lady like me, want to hang out with a scumbag like you!" I say aloud which git the attention of the two boys who hadn't noticed this before, many people turned to watch. Welp. There goes the peace.

"What did you say? Oh, your going to get it!" My hand was on my cutlass, sheathing it a little the two behind me the same, the man went and grabbed a sword, a really old and rusted sword from the looks of it, swinging it towards me, I ducked witha little yelp escaping my lips, and then quickly kicking his back, he took the hit but turned and swung again to which I blocked with my cutlass.

"I said, Why would I want to be with a dirty scum like you~" I repeated a smirk on my face as my face neared his in through the little cros section of the swords.

"Your gon' get it." He jumped back and was about to hit again while I stayed in the same spot, my sword steady in hand.

"Leave her alone Allen." A familiar voice spoke up while holding the swords blade in his hand, a slight red liquid dripping down the palm of his hand.

"Why? Do y-"

"Long story short, she's a friend. Not a foe, asshole." He spoke boredly as I let out a breath in relief and sheathed my cutlass the other as well,

"Let's a go somewhere more a quiet. . We've drawn more attention then needed." Lovino spoke grabbing my arm Matthew grabbing the other two, dragging us into an alley way.

". . Alright, Matt. Who the fuck is this bastard?" I spoke rather pissed. "And what is your relation to him?"

"Calm down chickadee. . This is Allen, Allen F. Jones my annoying twin, I guess you could say."
