Chapter 1
Eriol Hiiragizawa sat alone at his cabinet. He, one of the most famous pirates, was fooled and tricked by a woman. The worst part of this whole story was that he had fallen in love. Being in love was ridiculous for any pirate and having your heart broken was suicidal.
Luckily enough this truth was only considered to be a rumor and no one was crazy enough to know if it really was true. No one was crazy enough to defy Eriol and be killed by his unnatural powers.
Drinking the last bottle of wine, Eriol threw the object across the room, shattering the bottle into pieces. He laughed bitterly while looking towards the portrait of the woman that ruined his life and managed to run away without him knowing.
"Such beauty you are, but yet threatening like a rose." Spoke Eriol in fury as he smashed the portrait with his fist.
He got up from his chair and opened the door to view the sea and his crew working at the ship.
"Captain are you alright?" spoke one of the pirates.
Eriol with a frown on his face asked, "How much did she take?"
"Uh-most of the treasure we have been collecting for the past 7 years." He answered in a low tone, afraid to fury his master even further.
His fist tightened as the frown deepened upon his charming face.
Not only was he known by his powers and abilities but also his beauty. With all this element combined plus his great intelligence, Eriol Hiiragizawa managed to robe the most precious treasures found in the sea. For 7 years he had worked hard to obtain his fame and his richness and for 3 whole moths a woman was able to take his pride and money away.
How he despised her.
"Eriol." Spoke a voice, calling attention of his master as a feline approached calmly.
"What is it?"
"Let's get back to the treasure map we have found. With so many missions ahead of us you'll soon forget Tomoyo Daidouji."
Hearing that name brought back the angriness inside, suddenly a ball of fire collected itself on his hand as it roared in rage. The whole crew, except Spinel, stepped back away to hide themselves, they were afraid of the magic their master possessed.
"Calm down Eriol. Go back to what we have been doing 3 months ago and you'll return to your normal self again. She will be soon forgotten."
"I am myself!" he roared.
"Are you really?"
The fire slowly disappeared. It was true, Eriol have been so angry in rage that he had forgotten to be a true captain. Things just got out of control, and the friendly, wise, funny, and great captain had become a cold monster. He couldn't help himself. It was his nature to be angry whenever he lost his temper.
"Enough of this soaking." spat Eriol in disgust of his attitude. "Let's go back to the old days."
With that said he took control of his ship once again.

(Passed 3 years)
Eriol laughed contently with his crew as once again they have succeeded in their mission.
"My loves." Spoke Eriol as he picked the golden coins to observe its beauty. "This victory calls for a celebration!" he announced to earn a great amount of cheers.
Soon the food and beer were brought out and the festive began. Eriol drank and talked joyfully with his friends, while music were being played in the background. Laughter and cheers could be heard throughout the whole ship.
"Captain! Captain! We've picked someone from the sea. Come! You must see." Spoke a short man, while pointing towards the direction.
Eriol put down his beer and followed after the man. Indeed there was a wet body on the wooden floor surrounded by two other men from the crew. They stepped back as Eriol kneeled in front of the body to uncover the black cloak. Seeing their captain away the whole crew stopped the festive to join them in curiosity.
"Now, now. Who might this unfortunate person be?" Eriol questioned grinning, as he pushed the cloak away.
There laid a woman, faced down, with long raven hair and soft pale skin. She wore a simple jean short and a tank top, revealing much of her curved body. Unlike other pirates, Eriol did not devour beautiful women when found, but he was instead a gentleman at all times.
"Captain look. There must be a tattoo on her arm, maybe a symbol of her group." Spoke the short man as he pointed at a spot on her arm.
Eriol curiously then pushed her silky hair away from the spot to reveal the tattoo, which design was a crown and a heart inside.
The whole crew gasped as they backed away from Eriol. With eyes open wide and the fury coming in full force, he knew exactly who this woman was. He silently got up as the crew opened way for their captain to pass.
"Throw her back to the sea." He declared as he turned to walk away.
They did not question his order. As they were about to pick her body up, the lady began to cough. Eriol stopped in his track as a frown appeared on his face. He still faced his back to the lady while the crew watched her intently.
She slowly sat up and brushed her long hair back. Looking around she smiled, recognizing the place she was.
"Thank you for saving my life." She spoke, "How can I repay you?"
Eriol grinned and turned around to look upon her lovely figure that somehow looked much more beautiful than before, and much more revealing as well. He started his way back as Tomoyo gazed upon his handsome figure that seemed to be even more gorgeous.
Eriol kneeled in front of her, grinning at the unsurprised look on her face.
"You." He started by lifting her shin up with his finger. "May leave this ship right now."
Tomoyo smiled, although hearing very well the venom on his tone of voice. "Is this the way you treat your dear wife?"
Tomoyo could feel his finger tremble in fury as fire burst into his eyes. "What wife?"
Tomoyo laughed. "By law we're still married."
Suddenly she felt a large hand grasp her throat menacingly. Although Eriol did squeeze, it wasn't to the point of chocking not killing her.
"Such a lovely welcome gift my husband."
Eriol let go of her and got up. "Leave or you'll die."
Tomoyo watched him enter his cabinet as the whole crew stared upon her.
"Hey guys. Long time no see." She greeted sheepishly.

Eriol thrust his cup onto the door, as he stared down on his tattoo, the exact copy of what the lady had on her arm."Tomoyo Daidouji your back." He whispered between gritted teeth.
He carved his nail upon the tattoo, as he scratched it deeply, causing his arm to bleed. But he didn't care. The tattoo being a symbol of their internal love was now much of a hatred symbol of the past.
Eriol was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door, later a figure walked in.
"Hello there."
"Don't you ever ask before coming in?" Eriol replied while seeing the lady looking around the room.
"No. You know that I don't do that." Tomoyo spoke smiling.
"Your habit." He whispered, recalling everything. "Now. Haven't I told you to leave?" he continued dangerously.
"You did, but I have a favor to ask." She replied approaching him calmly.
"A favor?" he spat, "After what you've done to me? Never."
"Not even for your wife?" Tomoyo insisted in a sweet tone.
"Your not my wife anymore."
"Fine." She spoke frustrated, "I'll pay for your service."
"With my money I presume." Eriol replied mockingly.
"No. With another favor."
Eriol looked at her curiously. "With a favor you say."
"Exactly, anything you want."
He laughed, "What I want is gone now."
"You mean, me?" she asked smiling.
"No." Eriol replied, "My Tomoyo Daidouji."
She grinned, "There must be something you want, besides your Tomoyo."
"Nothing you can give. Now leave."
"Someone is in a foul mood." She spoke smiling. "Eriol..."
He interrupted, "That's Captain Hiiragizawa for you."
"Alright. Captain Hiiragizawa." She corrected with a sigh, "I'm talking about business here."
"I'm not interested."
"It involves a great amount of money."
"No thank you."
"A big, large, humongous amount of money!"
"I said no."
"Why are you being so difficult?" Tomoyo whined in frustration as she raked her beautiful hair back.
"When did you start using these type of clothes?" spoke Eriol out of the blues.
Tomoyo smiled. "This rag. I had nothing else to wear."
Eriol frowned. "Don't you have the money to buy some new clothes?"
"I lost it all."
"What!" Eriol called out in disbelief.
Tomoyo giggled, "That's why I need your service."
"You lost all my money? How could you woman!" Eriol spoke in fury.
"I'll tell you that story later, but first I need your help. Remember I'll repay you back with a favor." Tomoyo spoke leaning forward with a smile.
"Get out of here." Was all he said.
She frowned. "Alright then, if your not going to help me I'll do this on my own." She concluded, as Tomoyo turned to leave.
Eriol couldn't help but to fear for her, as much as he hated her, despised her being, he felt the urge to protect that beauty he loved. He groaned for such stupid feelings he wished that never existed.
"Come back." He finally spoke, as Tomoyo was about to open the door.
"What did you say?" she asked with a grin, she knew that he wouldn't let her go alone, he was still the gentleman.
"I said that I'll help you get what you want." He replied, trying to hold the fury inside.
Tomoyo smiled as she walked back to the captain.
"Thank you." She spoke, "Don't worry, you'll have your favor granted, so keep thinking of something good for yourself."
"I'll try." He replied sarcastically.
Tomoyo only giggled, before leaning forward and kissing his lips. Eriol shocked by her move stood still. He didn't push back but neither did he kiss her back. Tomoyo pushing away smiled and walked out.
"Have a nice day captain Hiiragizawa."
Eriol coming back from his shocked state, cursed the woman, before throwing another cup towards the door.
