Her sword dripped with fresh and drying blood, she knew she killed many in that single day but she also knew her killing wasnt over yet.

Her eyes wide with a fire within them as anger filled her face while she looked to the pirate captain before her. 

The one who attacked this island many years ago was now standing before her, with such a smirk that she just wanted to silence his head of then and there. 

But she couldn't not while the second captain stood with his sword to a male throat.

Lance..

How did he even get caught, he should have been on rover or did he disobey the one order gave him today. 

No, Lance seemed slowly trying meaning he been in the ocean and by the state of his clothes it wasnt by choice. 

Cunts on one side of his face from wood spatter meaning he was close to a canon ball that hit the ship somewhere and mostly likely go thrown off before washed up at the beach.

Now he was a hostage, two black pirate captains with a hostage vs her.

She wasnt expecting to win this fight but she had to try, she wouldn't let Lance die not again.

She never forgave herself for not running to the castle, finding him and pulling him out instead of just waiting by the tree. She won't live with that regret, she was stronger now and was going to die fighting to keep him safe. 

"Give me the treasure" Captain Zarkon growled, his eyes a glowing yellow showing he was taken by dark magic.

Treasure .. A lie.

Pidge knew the island that Coran told them, Thace took her and the boys there when she was still a child.

The treasure was a fake, well the location was fake becuase Thace moved it long ago knowing such a treasure should never be found.

Lying to his adopted children on his ship, telling them it was something else as they carried it within the ship before losing it to the sea forever.

Only she remembered such a time, the others thinking it was a dream but she knew it wasnt becuase that how she gained her most favourite scar.

Her first scar from protecting her new family, it was tiny and on her left ankle but it was still there. She was so proud of it and Thace couldn't help but be proud too after seeing how overjoyed she was for protecting the ones she love. 

So, she lied to her crew and her friends .. watching them walk about the cave that was meant to hold the treasure and finding it empty making them think one of the other Captains already took it. 

Now why send Matt to find the cave if they didn't hold a treasure, that becuase she had one treasure to add to the hidden Island.

Thace sword, no one but Thace was worthy enough to hold such a sword yet so many wanted it. 

Pidge kept it hidden all this time, acting like it was lost in sea when he was killed but it was just floating in the water. She and Keith made a promise to hide the sword, to let the sword become forgotten in history as its master soul becomes free.

But the black pirates captains clearly think she had it, that she held the treasure and in a way she did just not the one they wanted. 

"A pirate sword is his soul" Pidge answered as she glanced to her own sword seeing what state it was from just a single day battle. 

"How stained the blade becomes is how stained the pirate soul will be. If it shines then the soul with too and if the sword becomes dull then so has the soul. If a sword breaks then the soul loses hope but a sword blade and be fixed returning hope to the soul. If rust fills the sword then the pirate soul has been freed in death or has left the pirate life behind. But a clean sharp sword even after the owner has died shows they were respected" Pidge spoke on a proud soft voice, a gentle smile on her lips as she glanced to the second sword wrapped in a black old blanket tied to her belt that once belong to Thace. 

"And what is that a treasure itself" Captain Lotor teased and Pidge lifted her head looking to him before glancing to Lance giving him a soft smile to let him know everyone would be just fine.

"Its the only treasure a pirate needs in his life" Pidge smirked as she turned back looking Lotor dead in the eye.

"Enough games, give us the treasure" Zarkon snapped as he glared towards Pidge.

"I just did" Pidge sighed walking towards Zarkon noticing Lotor hold how sword closer to Lance throat.

"A saying is not the treasure" Zarkon huffed back. 

"Its not a saying, I just gave you your treasure and its been by your side this whole time .. your sword is you treasure" Pidge answered.

"Enough ... give me the treasure or your friend dies" Lotor growled cutting Lance neck slightly.

"Then Kill Him .. I mean does he really look like someone I want in my crew. I mean I'm Captain Pidge Gunderson and he was an idiot prince who I used to not be hanged .. He has no use to me anymore" Pidge grinned, her eyes seemed like she was insane as Lance eyes widen in shock.

"Actually why don't I kill him .. I can finally be free of such a pathetic wannabe pirate and just blame you ... Finally I'll be rid of you brave prince"  Pidge smirked as she stood before where Lance was pushed down on his knees .. Lotor standing back unsure as he watched Pidge lift her sword ready to strike. Lance lifted his head stunned as he called him her brave prince, only one person in his life ever called him such a title and he knew they could never harm him. 

Pidge slashed her sword down making lance flitch slightly, he trusted her but it was still a little close for comfort. Feeling her free hand reach out to him he took and soon was running as she pulled him along the slash she made in the air made Lotor jump back giving them a chance to run. Lance took the risk go glancing back not seeing the other two captains very happy while chasing after then and Lance decided he was gonna be the one to pull Pidge now. Using his long legs to over take her, leading her way of their old home island.
