There wasn't one day where Wanda hoped and wished that she wasn't the princess of Sokovia and bound to marry someone else from another royal family. She wished she could embrace everything that the world offered and more. What she didn't know was the certain Pirate Knight that gazed upon the secret beauty of Sokovia in the dead of night and what would soon follow as Wanda accepted her powerful, rare and ancient powers.

It had been a normal day, a shit ton of paper work, idiots in need of discipline and I couldn't think about anything else other than the certain ginger haired princess consuming my thoughts whole. Today would be the day, I was taking my army to Sokovia to claim what was rightfully mine. There wasn't anything that would stop me. It had been difficult to even get a picture of the rare princess as she was barely seen out of the castle walls or the confinement of her chained prison, a.k.a her bedroom, but I had ways of getting what I wanted, even if it was a grainy ass picture. I could still distinctly make out the lining of her jaw, her plump peach lips and her striking ginger hair that complemented her emerald green eyes. Perfect. She was the definition of the incarnation of beauty and grace and I wanted her, badly.
The door to my private living space is rudely slammed open by my second in command Blake. I watch with an emotionless face as he knelt in front of me, his head bowed and his back bare, the greatest move to show your loyalty as he spoke,
"My lord, we are becoming visible through the fog and mist, are you sure you would like to proceed?"
I stood up, slamming the book I was reading I notice the slight flinch from Blake's head as he shook slightly. I didn't care as I slowly made my way until I was standing above him, the heels of my boots clicking against the hardwood floor of my ship, The Fallen Angel as I grinned maliciously. Leaning over him I chuckle darkly as I say,
"Rain hell on the shores of Sokovia until I get my jewel. Understood, Blake?"
He looked up, silent for a moment before he bowed his head once again, whispering,
"Yes, ma'am! I shall direct the army to ready themselves! Shall I order your dinner from your private cook?"
I stood up, licking my lips as I spoke dangerously, an evil grin and glint in my eye became noticeable as I spoke clearly, my hand at the hilt of my sword,
"No, I shall join in. I have a goal in mind and I don't plan on leaving until I get it."
Blake didn't question me as he rushed out of the room, following behind him I slammed the door shut behind me, noticing the rain and storms I barely flinch at the thunder and lightning as I climb the middle post. Once up at the post I turn towards my crew as I grin, my hair flying around in my face as I yell,
"Today we plan on infiltrating the sacred shores of Sokovia, a place no one has ever dared venture, but we have something they don't!"
I grin, showing the blood stained dragon necklace I roar, my gun in the air as I let out a beginning shot to signal to the other ships following behind mine,
"Tonight changes! With this, The Dragon Pendant I shall lead us all to the victory we deserve and want, but just be warned that when I say we stop, we stop, whoever doesn't, well let's just say they'll be wishing they did..."
I watch as my crew members faces pale as I roar over another clap of thunder,
"Kill whoever you need to from the other ships, I don't care. No killing of the people though, I have a plan for them later."
A sinister grin plays out across my face as our boat lands on shore and without wasting a beat I jump down, not caring about my safety as I growl at Blake,
"Blake, anchor!"
With a loud crash that I couldn't decipher whether or not it was the powerful waves that beat against the side of my ship or whether or not it was the anchor that Blake threw into the water. I didn't care though and as the ship touched the sands of Sokovia, all hell broke loose, but I ignored it as I made a beeline towards the castle of Sokovia, what I would hope would be a quick and easy grab.

Wanda's POV
"Your highness, you simply must go back to your room. It's safer there than out here."
I furrow my eyebrows, stopping I turn my body towards my maid, shaking my head I only cross my arms over my chest as I say,
"No, I am the princess of Sokovia and I demand to know what is happening."
She sighs, about to say something when she's cut off as the windows smash, a hoard of what looked to be pirates coming through the windows and that's when my green eyes connect with a pair of captivating y/c/e eyes and the glint of what looked to be a red and gold gem necklace hanging around the neck of one of the pirates, her body lean but muscular as she stood tall and proud, a small smirk across her face as she winks at me, blowing me a kiss I blush softly as I look away. What the hell am I thinking? Why am I blushing? Hiding my face within my hands I'm interrupted as a voice cuts through my thoughts, the voice deep and husky but with a bit of softness to it,
"A pleasure to finally meet you face to face, Princess Wanda. I must say you are the definition of beauty and grace."
I let out a soft squeak when I'm pulled into someone's arms, their body warmth warming me as they jump out of a nearby window, their arms tightening around my frame as the cold night air blows past my face. Looking up I realize who's arms I'm currently in. The mysterious woman. She looks down, smiling down at me with pearly white teeth my blush only worsens as I look away from her gaze, somehow feeling safe within her arms as we land on the ground. Setting me beside her I realize what she is. A pirate knight. I'm screwed.
Taking a step back I only hear her dark chuckle as she says, her hand resting on the hilt of her sword,
"I wouldn't do that if I were you, princess. You may have powers but so do I."
I freeze, my muscles locking into place as I whisper,
"What do you want? Why are you doing this?"
She rolls her eyes, shaking her head her lips pull up into a soft smile as her eyes crinkle at the sides, her soft voice whispering,
"I'm not here to hurt you and neither is my crew, nor are we here to hurt your people, I've given them an order not to and if they do...well let's just say they won't be alive to complain about it, I promise you that princess. We're here for you. I'll give you two choices. You can either stay here in the castle and I'll never disturb you or your people or you can take my hand and join me on the high seas. Freedom."
I watch as she holds out her hand towards me, her head tilting to the side as her soft features come into the soft light of the moon, her beauty shocking me as I gasp at her beautiful and smooth skin. Freedom, she's giving me the choice to choose what I want...Moving towards her I grab her hand as I whisper,
"I-I'll choose you, but I can come back whenever I wish, right?"
Her grin widens as she chuckles again, giving me a wink she twirls me as she says,
"Yes, I will allow you to come back whenever you wish to, you need only ask."
I smile, following after the pirate in front of me into the night I finally feel...free.
