There were once four princes, the only hope for their kingdom's future but these four have never really wanted to be princes so when a sudden ruckus in their town gives all four a chance to escape, they took it and prepared to begin a life of pirate...
In the past two weeks, Seongwha had learned the names of all the Miroh pirates. The captain was Chan. The one that everyone called a maniac was Minho. Short and strong, the one that had grabbed Seongwha off the deck of the Ateez, was Changbin. Hyunjin was the tall and black haired one and he was called the Ocean's Prince. He was so surreal looking that Seongwha actually wondered if he was the son of a siren, but it was Mingi who asked and got slapped in the face by the ocean's prince. As it turns out, Hyunjin was called the Ocean's prince because he was in fact a prince of the ocean. Seongwha and Mingi's assumptions were somewhat correct but Hyunjin didn't seem to like talking about it so he didn't and they learned to stop asking.
The genius navigator (Yeosang didn't talk for two days when he heard the name for the first time) was named Jisung and bluebird, Felix was the first mate. He was also Chan's little brother but Seongwha had not known that until a day before. Now Seongwha had never met Seungmin but he had heard his name and did find out that Seungmin was the one who had made the food that was delivered to the four prisoners so, if Seongwha ever did meet the kid, he would like to thank him for the good food. And then there was Innie. His real name was Jeongin but everyone mostly called him Innie. The one time he did hear the name Jeongin, it was because the kid had snuck below deck and was hiding behind a stack of crates next to the cell that the princes were in. As soon as Hyunjin caught him, Jeongin started to thrash around but he was carried away despite his attempts. Seongwha wasn't sure why he liked being down there with them so much but he felt bad for the kid.
And then the most bizarre thing happened and dread settled in the stomachs of the four royals: the ship stopped. Which could only mean one thing; they were back where they had started.
"How nice of you to grace us with your presence, captain" Yeosang did a small bow when Chan, with Minho and Felix flanking his either side, came down the stairs.
"Watch it" Minho hissed at him. Yeosang didn't even move. Seongwha admired how his cousin could act so calm when he knew for a fact that he could feel Yeosang's entire body shaking behind him.
"Let's go. We have somewhere to be" Chan ordered. The door opened and Minho and Felix entered, cutting the ropes on their prisoner's hands. Minho grabbed Yeosang and San, pulling them out the door and handing San over to the captain.
"Seongwha!" Yeosang was promptly picked up like nothing more than a doll and carried off. Seongwha struggled against his own captors until he was pushed into the arms of someone else and he looked down at the captain. Dang, this guy was short.
"I thought Hongjoong would have taught his guys better manners" Someone muttered to himself, shaking his head and following his mates up the stairs. Chan pushed Seongwha forward, following him closely to prevent Seongwha from escaping. This was a nightmare.
"If you want to take me, then go ahead! But you won't get anything for them" Seongwha turned around once they were above deck. Yeosang, San and Mingi were kneeling down on the wooden deck, their hands tied again. Three guys were standing directly behind them. Seongwha had to guess they were Minho, Jisung and Felix seeing as how the one that he had never seen, Seungmin, was relaxing on the other side of the ship and Hyunjin was crouching, perched precariously on the balcony fence that separated the top part of the ship from the bottom. Jeongin was standing beside Seungmin, nothing more than a shadow and Changbin was hovering close by, ready to step in if needed.
"Rude" San huffed. Yeosang rolled his eyes.
"I am the heir and the future King. I'm the only one who will get you anything, if it's money that you are looking for" Seongwha continued on, ignoring the other three.
"We'll let the Queen decide that" Chan stated, motioning for his guys to get the other three, and then they were leaving and there was nothing that Seongwha could do except walk and keep an eye on his family. He hoped that Hongjoong, Jongho, Yunho and Wooyoung would come to get them soon.
"Well, welcome home, your majesties" Changbin teased, motioning the princes inside as if this was not the same place they had grown up, where they had placed since they were old enough to walk. The walls were the same as they walked to the throne room and the doors opened. Once again, they were forced to kneel down and face the Queen with her unforgiving face and pursed lips.
"Hello, mother" Seongwha's voice was no more than a whisper, blocked by the tears that were suffocating him.
_______________ So I was looking for something for another story (spoiler!!!!) and I found this! Look how cool they are! All credits to Moonii Blue. I think that's what the watermark (is that the right word?) says.
