//The Crown Thief//

//chapter seven//

   Kaminari pushed Bakugo onto the shore with one last kick, crawling onto the beach and flopping down. He face planted into the sand, beating his fists and yelling into the sand, having a hissy-fit. Bakugo stood from the piece of wood, looking around the beach and straight at the tavern. He looked down to his soaked clothes, images of the wreckage still fresh in his mind. He jumped and looked to kaminari as he saw him standing and firing his flintlock into the sea, cussing like a sailor and stomping his feet. "It's totally unfair! Do you know how long it took to steal that ship!? Then one person just comes and blows it to bits!"
   Bakugo crossed his arms, watching the other as he abused the ocean. He jumped once again as someone grabbed him by the shoulders, turning him around. A tall redhead peered behind him to the pirate having a fit, holding up a finger to his mouth and shushing him. Bakugo rose a brow. "Kirishima, what are you doing?" He looked back to the prince with a creased brow. "Saving you from the crazy pirate your highness.." they both turned back to kaminari, screaming at the sea.
   Bakugo snickered and turned back to the dragon/human that stood before him. "Nah I'm good. We're going to break into the todoroki castle." Kirishima looked at him, shock painted on his face. "W-well I-" he cleared his throat. "Fine! But I'm accompanying his highness. It's my job as your knight! And as a man!" He jabbed a thumb at himself, smiling proudly. Bakugo rolled his eyes, shrugging. "Alright shittyhair. Whatever you want." He turned back to the now calm pirate that panted and just stared out at the sea. "Are you done now?" Kaminari put his guns in his holsters, nodding and turning back to him.
  He flinched when he saw Kirishima, staring at his wings and tail. "What?" Kirishima rose a brow. "Uh- you know what? Nothing." Kirishima snickered a bit, and bakugo pointed to the tavern. "Let's go in there." Kaminari and Kirishima both looked to each other.
   Kaminari put his hands on his hips and smirked at the soaking wet prince. "Have you ever been in a bar your highness?" Bakugo rolled his eyes. "You cant call me that anymore, we need to go undercover if we want to remain unsuspicious. And no, no I have not." Kirishima sighed and rubbed the back of his head, and kaminari just blinked like an idiot.
  "Well then what do you suggest I call you?" Bakugo just pursed his lips. "Bakugo is fine I suppose. My first name shouldn't come out of your filthy mouth." Kirishima laughed a bit and nodded, causing kaminari to just roll his eyes. "So this is how it's going to be huh? You two teaming against me." The both nodded, and kaminari just blew, nodding to the tavern. "You're right blasty, the tavern seems like a good idea. I'm beat" Bakugo rose a brow.
  "Blasty?" Kaminari narrowed his eyes at him. "Your mom blasted my ship to bits." Bakugo thought about that for a moment, nodding and turning to the taverns, starting to walk in his posh manner. "Fair enough" Kirishima ran to catch up with him, blinking. "Uhm..your highness just stay silent ok? The crazy pirate and I will handle this." Kaminari caught up with the two, stopping in front of the door. "The name's kaminari" he kicked open the door, earning stares from the entire tavern.
   He grinned at the two, "and that- my colleges, is how you make an entrance!" Kirishima face palmed, walking in and muttering. "So much for being quiet and unsuspicious.." he walked to the bar, sitting on a stool and folding his wings. Bakugo and kaminari walked up as well, kaminari back tracking and looking at a notice board, ripping two pictures of himself down and shoving them into his blazer pocket before sliding onto the stool next to bakugo. They tapped the counter and looked around at the small tavern, bustling with drunks and prostitutes. The sound of piano music floated around the tavern, mixing in with the sound of wrenching and fighting. And not to mention the smell of puke, beer, musty wood, and other scents that you couldn't put a name to even if you tried. The tavern owner walked over, inspecting the group with a raised brow.
   "You all must be the weirdest group I've ever seen." He chuckled slightly. "What can I get you?" Kaminari put his sword on the wooden counter. "I'll take two of the strongest thing you have." The tavern owner nodded, and Kirishima smiled. "Whatever you'd recommend." The tavern owner looked to bakugo who was struggling to answer. Kirishima put a hand on his shoulder. "He'll take a water" kaminari snorted, and bakugo glared at Kirishima.
   "Like hell I'll have a fucking water. I've had enough fucking water for today" the tavern owner had already walked away however, his long black hair gleaming in the candlelight of the dim wooden tavern. He walked back minutes later, pulling up a stool as bakugo pulled out the todoroki castle plans and his castle plans, tracing the lines and explaining his plan to Kirishima and kaminari. The raven haired boy whistled. "Where'd you get that?" Bakugo scoffed, and Kirishima answer for him quickly. "He's prince katsuki bakugo! Can't you tell by his crown?" The tall boy looked between them. "What crown?" Bakugo touched the top of his head, groaning as he noticed the absence of his crown.
    Kaminari looked at them all, blinking and taking off his hat. "Oh! Right!" Bakugo's crown lay underneath his hat. He took it from his head and placed it sloppily on bakugo's head, smiling innocently. Bakugo just rolled his eyes, and nodded. "Well anyways.." the raven haired boy connected the dots, nodding and smiling. "You're going to break into the castle..aren't you."
   They all looked around and nodded, leaning in and whispering. The tavern owner shined a glass. "The names sero. And I'm in." Bakugo raised a brow. "What reason would you have for breaking into a castle?" Sero sighed. "I deliver beer and such to his majesty..and he hasn't payed for it in weeks. And frankly, the taxes on beer are way too high so businesses is rough these days."
   the group nodded, each making comments on the taxes until they got back to work. "Well the castle is about a three day walk from here. Unfortunately for us my cart broke the other day so it's pretty much out of order" sero continued with shining his glass. Kaminari downed a glass of beer in one go, earning a bewildered look from the tavern owner. "Is that even healthy?" Kaminari shrugged. "I'm going to need the energy for the long ass walk."
