The Princess Bride and the Feared Pirate

Chapter 02

I slashed my blade against the chest of many Royal Guards as I walked down the deck full of screams. My group of pirates had arrive moments earlier. In a very good fashion I may add. They had latched onto the boat and began to climb up the sides causing the boat to shake violently.

I sighed and struck my sword through the chest of a Royal Guard who tried to attack me. "Honestly, is this the best he has?" I asked the guard as I pulled out my sword and watch him crumble to the floor. I continued walking, stepping over the bodies that blocked my way.

"Jude Ryder!" I heard my name being called. I turned around to see the captain of the Royal Guards with his sword held up high in the air. "I am your next opponent!" He said as he charged straight at me, his brown hair flying wildly in the air as he ran. I sighed and suddenly he fell to the floor. A dagger in his chest. Blood stained his shirt.

I walked over to his lifeless body and pulled out the knife. I held it up to my eyes and turned around to see a blonde pigtailed haired. Her shirt was striped purple and white it cut off around her midriff and her pants were ripped near her shins. Her purple eyes looked up at me. "It's not proper for little sisters to be shoving knives into grown men in front of their brothers, Lorraine." A smile came to her face as I said her name.

"He had it coming," She said as she crossed her arms. I flipped the knife so it blade was facing me and the handle to her. Her small hand reached for it. "You just said this wasn't proper…" She told me as she grabbed it and wiped off the crimson red blood from it.

"We're pirates…" I said with a smirk on my face. I took out my pistol and put it over my shoulder so the barrel was aiming at whatever was behind me. I pulled the trigger not even bothering to look at who I shot. A dying scream filled the air. "We aren't supposed to be 'proper'."

"Speaking of 'proper' where's the little Kiddy prince?" She asked as she looked around. "Did you already get to him? I wanted a whack at him too, you know," She said with a pout on her face. I shrugged.

"He got away when you guys came on the boat," I explained to her. I saw a flash of blonde hair from the corner of my eye. "Well… well… well," I murmured to myself and stepped around Lorraine. "I spy with my little eye an annoying little prince."

I walked towards the spot where I saw the hair, which was behind one of the barrels. I grabbed it's rim and threw it to the side. I brought my blade up to the neck of the person behind it.

My eyes widened at the person who was there. Its not him… but his raven haired fiancée. Her arms were wrapped around her legs and her gray eyes weren't filled with fear like the others on the boat, but annoyance. I lowered my sword away from her neck. "Where's your little prince?" I asked her.

"I don't know, he told me to wait here. That it was too unsafe to leave because your crew might see us if we left," She answered in an low tone. Her head looked at the floor. "What are you going to do to me?" Her question came out in a whisper, I could see her lip quiver.

"Nothing." I grabbed her arm and pulled her up. My lips went to her ear. "Nothing that involves blood," I whispered into it. Against her will I pulled her across the deck. She tried to get free, many guards ran to save her, but were quickly dealt with by my crew. We nearly got to the front of the boat until a voice stopped me.

"Jude Ryder!" Wyatt's voice called out my name. I turned around so I was in front of his fiancée, lucky she was shorter than me and the dress wasn't so large, so he couldn't see her. "Your head is mine!" He yelled as he drew his sword and came charging towards me.

"I wouldn't do that if I was you," I said as I revealed who was behind me. I brought my gun up to her head and Wyatt stopped dead in his tracks. "You don't want her to get hurt do you?"

"S-s-stop it," She begged as she turned her head to the little prince. "Wy-Wyatt," She whimpered as tears formed in her eyes.

"Frances?!" His eyes were wide with shock, then suddenly turned cold. "Let her go!" He commanded in a serious tone.

"You're not the boss of me little kid." I said. I looked back at the girl and put a hand under her chin and brought her face towards mine. "So your name's Frances…" I began to walk backwards towards the end of the boat, pulling her along with me. As soon as I was on the edge many guards quickly came to Wyatt's side.

"Release her!" Wyatt yelled as the guards drew their weapons. "Or I be force to shoot."

"Honestly wyatt, you would risk the life of your little fiancée over here just to get my head. Tsk tsk, so selfish." I shook my head and looked up to the mast. Two boys were on it. One with short brown hair and another with red hair. They held their swords to two of the ropes that swung from the pole. I faint smile came to my lips.

"Release her!" Wyatt repeated.

"Fine, only because you asked." I pushed Frances over the side of the boat. Wyatt and the guards quickly looked over the edge. "You should choose your words more properly." I heard a splash. I moved my feet so I was standing of the railing of the boat. "You know what… I'll go rescue her." I jumped off and dived into the water. Under the salted ocean water I could see her trying to swim up. I swam next to her, grabbed her waist and went up. She let out the breath she was holding in. I looked up to see Wyatt with a shocked expression. "See, I'm not a bad guy," I said as I held her close to my face. "Joseph! Chris! Now!" I yelled as the two boys cut the ropes and swung down.

"Right!" They both yelled. They grabbed Frances and me out of the water and brought us up to the edge of my ship, which had appeared out of the fog just at that second. I landed on my feet with a hand around Frances’ waist, Joseph and Chris landed on the mast of my ship.

"Jude Ryder!" Wyatt yelled from the side of his ship. The Royal Guards held up their weapons. "Give her back to me!"

"If you wish for her not to be harmed… don't follow me, Prince. I will come for you." I yelled back at him. The rest of my crew swam back to my boat as I distracted him. Lorraine came to my left, on her other side was Chris, and beside Frances on my right was Joseph. My ship began to move as Wyatt did nothing but stare. I looked at Frances, she had fear on her face. "Oh and Wyatt!" His head twitched at the sound of his name.

I violently brought my lips down onto Frances’. I could feel her tremble underneath my touch. I put my hand on her hair and undid the bun that held it up, allowing her hair to fall. Her lips were warm and they soon parted, allowing me entrance into her mouth. I let my tongue explore the interior slowly. I opened an eye to see the prince with a shocked expression on his face. I smiled against her lips and began to kiss her more violently. Soon his face was engulfed by the fog as my ship began to leave. 'I've got it… his treasure.'
