Otabek walked down the hallway with Victor walking a step ahead of him with his hands in shackles. He had been keeping his head down and hadn't said a word. The walk from the ballroom to hallway that lead to the dungeons was long and taxing. But the only thing on both men's mind was Yuri and Yura and praying that both of them where safe. Victor was so worried about both of them, but he knew that Yurio could take care of himself. Yuri on the other hand has probably never had to defend himself against someone who would kill him without a second thought. 

While lost in thought the two of them finally arrived in the dungeons. Otabek put Victor in the closest open cell. Once Victor was locked in Otabek removed his shackles. Otabek started to walked away, he was about half way back up the hallway when he turn around. He headed straight back to stand in front of Victor cell. After a moment Otabek made a noise that got Victor to look at him.

"What?" Asked Victor with a raised eyebrow. 

"Why did you come here?" Asked Otabek grabbing the bars of Victor's cell. 

"Why... I came to steal the gem that is said to control ice and snow." Answered Victor who was now looking down on the ground. 

"But we don't have a gem like that." Replied Otabek who released the bars he had been holding. 

"Well technically, no you don't. But you do have prince Yuri who has the power of ice and snow." Victor voice was even, until he said Yuri's name and his voice cracked. Otabek noticed the crack of his voice and was now really looking at his face. He look stressed and worried, worry lines had already began to form on his face. 

"So, where you going to take him and force him to work for you?" Asked Otabek.

"No... I didn't know about him until right before Chris attacked." Replied Victor. He thought back to the dance he had shared with the prince and he hoped it wouldn't be the last time he saw him. 

"Do you love him?" This question made Victor face flush. With that reaction Otabek had his answer. 

"I think I do. So I could never take him. Now it my turn to ask a question." Replied Victor. 

"Okay." Otabek answer was simple and quick.

"You know after I found Yurio he would tell stories of a friend he use to have but as he got older he stop telling them. It was you right and do you love him?" Asked Victor. 

"Yes, it was me. And you I do love him." Replied Otabek his face was serious Victor could tell he meant every word. "What is going to happen to them?" 

"I honestly don't know for sure. But Yuri would probably kept in the brig and as for Yurio it seems that J.J. took him for some other reason. I'm afraid for them." Victor's face scowled and he began to rub his chin. 

"Can you save them?" After Otabek asked the question, both of them couldn't hide the shock on their faces. 

"I don't know, but I know how he thinks and that might give me an edge. But I would need to get out of here." Victor looked straight at Otabek's face. Otabek thought about it long and hard. Somewhere deep down inside Otabek knew that he was going to need Victor's help to save them. But he was given an order and he has never disobeyed an order before. The debate raged on within Otabek. But he finally made a decision. 

"Alright." Said Otabek.

"Alright?" Victor repeated back with a raised eyebrow. The question hung in the air for a few seconds before the door to Victor's cell swung open. Victor stood up and step out with caution, expecting this to be some kind of trick. But when Otabek step aside to let Victor all the way out. 

"So, how do you suggest we get out of here?" Asked Victor. Looking to Otabek to take the lead. Otabek started walking further into dungeons pass several rows of cells and poisoners. The further they walked into the dungeons the more Victor worried that he had been tricked. But sure enough there was a door at the back side of dungeons. 

"This door leads to the back side of the palace by the castle stables were we can borrow some horse and make way to the docks." Said Otabek quietly has he open the door revealing the back side of the castle. Not to far in the distance Victor saw the stables, the two men jogged as silently as possible. All the guards seem to be inside the palace receiving orders from the king, so the two men made it to the stable with no problems. Once there they hopped on the first too horses they saw and rode off the palace grounds. 

It only took about 10 minutes to reach the docks. Victor gets off his horse and heads straight to towards his ship. Otabek follows behind quietly, looking around the deck as they step on. He noticed that the men look happy and all well fed. The second Victor foot hit the deck all eyes turned to look at him. Although his clothes are disheveled he looked handsome in the lights of dusk. 

"CAPTAIN! Are you alright?" Asked someone who look very concerned. 

"I'm fine but Yuri is in trouble. It's Captain Chris doing." Everyone on the ship stop and looked at each other. Then they started yelling things like lets get them and lets go get Yuri. Otabek was honestly surprise, what he heard about pirates is that they don't care about others. But that wasn't the case here, they all seemed to care that Yura was in danger. "First we need find them. So, I need all of you to blend in and see if you can find Chris's ship." The whole crew replied with an Aye Aye and started getting ready to find the ship. Otabek was kind of impressed. 

"Don't worry Otabek we'll find them and then we'll save them." Said Victor with a serious look on his face. He was going to get them back no matter what.
