   The carriage flew down the streets to the bay, the wheels squealing at the speed they were going. Mina crawled down from the roof, reins in one hands as she unclipped the horses from the carriage, sending them running into a field just left of the stone street. They hollered and threw their hands up, cheering like it was some cool roller coaster. Bakugo screamed in the back, his tied up body flailing "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE" Denki cheered, throwing his hands up.
  "Chill out dude! It's perfectly safe-" he was cut off by the shrill sound of a wheel breaking, sending the carriage lurching forward. Bakugo rose a brow at him. "Perfectly safe huh?" The smaller boy just shrugged, laughing anxiously. "Oops?" One of the back wheels broke to pieces, and Denki held on to the wooden carriage for dear life, screaming to the rest of his crew that was on the roof. "BRACE FOR IMPACT!" they all screamed bloody murder, the carriage hitting a rock and sending them all flying onto a large ship that happened to be sitting on the shore. Bakugo tumbled onto the boat, the crew clearing around him and glaring at him. Kaminari yelled and landed on his face, earning cheers from the whole boat.
    Bakugo stared around at his surroundings, eyes wondering up the masts of the humongous ship, and back down the various ropes and knots, his eyes blazing across the faded gold accents that adorned the beautiful ship.
   "Captain!" Mina got up from the floor of the deck, helping a very woozy kaminari up to his feet. He stumbled around a bit, but Mina stood firm and let him hold himself up on her. Bakugo sat up against the side of the ship, wiggling against the restraints as he yelled at them. "I command you let me go you fuckers!" Two of the pirates looked at each other, one taking out a handkerchief from his pocket and walking up to bakugo, tying it tightly around his mouth as a gag. They snatched their hand away as bakugo lunged out to bite theme like a snapping turtle, biting down on the cloth, his screams muffled.
   Kaminari stepped to the wheel, happily taking it and looking down to his crew, as happy as they were that he was back. he yelled orders, sending the crew running around the large ship, raising the sails and cutting ropes as they sailed into the deep sea.
Soon the stars played in the sky, the moon staring down into the world from the dark sky above. The pirate ship was alive with music and dancing and celebrating, the ship having sailed miles away from the kingdom in just a few hours. They served dinner, everyone leaning against beams or against the rail of the ship. Meanwhile, Bakugo was tied to a support beam in the captains quarters, listening angrily as he fought against his restraints. Kaminari walked past bakugo, pulling on a piece of cloth and letting the gag unravel in his hand.
   He sat down at his desk, putting his feet up and simply staring at him, setting down a plate of food right in front of Bakugo teasingly. Bakugo narrowed his eyes. "Am I allowed to talk captain?" He said in a snarky voice, giving him attitude. Kaminari smirked a little, pulling his feet down and interlocking his fingers on the desk. "Of course, all prisoners of mine get to speak before they walk the plank." Bakugo simply rolled his eyes at the comment, kk owing he didn't have the balls to throw such valuable cargo such as himself overboard. Bakugo's eyes lit up with a mischievous glint, starting to talk.
  "I have an idea. And it involves you getting a shit load of money." Kaminari pursed his lips, sitting up and looking fairly interested. "I'm listening.." bakugo nodded, clearing his throat and beginning to explain. "Well, the todoroki kingdom and bakugo kingdom have never been the best of allies..and I think it's time we over threw them." He gave kaminari an evil look. "I happened to just be glancing at some of their ground plans when I noticed that they fucking copied our castle design, which means.." kaminari sat forward, his hat dipping slightly forward with him.
  "That if you can break into our castle-.." he watched as kaminari connected the dots. "Then I can break into theirs.." he smiled and nodded, understanding. Bakugo smiled a little "bingo." Kaminari stood up, leaning one hand on the desk. "But if Im not mistaken,
You just tried to have me hung not- let me count- not even 12 minutes ago" bakugo huffed, stomping his feet and having a mini temper-tantrum. "Look I told you dunceface! That was an accident!" The two looked in each others eyes for a moment and kaminari raised a brow. "So you're saying- you didn't mean to have me hung" bakugo nodded, his shoulders sagging and his muscles relaxing.
   His hair fluffed down a bit, covering his eyes, which caused him to groan in annoyance and he shook his head, trying to get it out of his line of vision. Kaminari snorted, walking over to the other and brushing the hair out of his face, his fingers lingering a bit longer and they stared into each others eyes. He smiled up at bakugo, about to say something when his thoughts were interrupted by a huge canon sound a and violent shift of the ship, shifting Kaminari's face right into Bakugo's, their noses touching. He cleared his throat, pushing himself off as Mina kicked the door open. "Captain! We've been hit!"
