"CAPTAIN THERE'S BEEN A BREACH ON THE SHIP!" exclaimed a Waddledee soldier

"They're here, Vul capture them!" exclaimed Metaknight

Captain Vul knew his orders were to capture Holt, Heath and Bo and he gladly obliged by pulling out cutlass sword, Dyna Blade was mortified by the long, sharp shining blade. She began to hold Kimberly who began to cry;

"Don't worry sweetie, we'll be fine. Mommy promises" comforted Dyna Blade

Then being the dick he was, Captain Vul decided to taunt Dyna Blade and Kimberly a little bit as Metaknight went into his quarters;

"When I'm done killing your boys, I'm gonna kill the both of you" taunted Captain Vul as she showed them his sword and Dyna Blade was even more scared now then she had ever been in her lifetime.

Captain Vul had gone onto the deck where the boys were, behind him an army of Waddledees all armed with cutlasses. Holt, Heath and Bo knew they were outnumbered but were still willing to fight to the death for their mother and baby sister.

"Well boys, I'm going to enjoy killing the three of you" said Captain Vul in an oily tone of voice

Captain Vul lunged at the boys, but they quickly dodged him…he swung like mad at the boys trying to stab them. Holt, Heath and Bo had agility on their side though but that long cutlass sword, one wrong move and they'd be shish kabobs.

"Come on boys, strike me…IF YOU DARE!" exclaimed Captain Vul

Holt, Heath and Bo were still flying around him, taunting him but still not knowing what to do until… Three Waddledee soldiers called them;

"HEY GUYS!" they exclaimed as they threw three cutlasses to them, which the boys grabbed and this angered Captain Vul

"WHO THE HELL'S SIDE ARE YOU ON?" exclaimed Captain Vul with his back turned to the boys; this gave them ample opportunity to kill. Holt sliced his carotid artery, Heath and Bo both stuck their swords in his back right where his lungs are, Captain Vul died instantly. Holt was panting hard as he never killed another person before;

"Damn that felt good!" exclaimed Holt as he raised his cutlass with Captain Vul's blood on it

All the Waddledees just stood there in amazement at what they had just witnessed, then they dropped down and bowed to the boys, and they got a little confused.

"What're you guys doing?" asked Heath

"You don't know how long we've been waiting for someone to kill that scumbag Vul" said a Waddledee soldier

"Yeah, fourteen years we've put up with his crap!" exclaimed another

"So to show our gratitude, your wish is our command…Captains" said another soldier

The boys had felt a sense of accomplishment and a couple of Waddledee soldiers threw Vul's lifeless body overboard into the jagged rocks below and all three boys had their swords, soaked in blood but they were alive.

[DYNA BLADE'S CAGE]

Dyna Blade feared the worst, that any minute Captain Vul was going to burst through that door and announce that he killed her three boys and then he was going to kill her and Kimberly, but little did she know the battle was in the boy's favor.

"They're alright, they're alright" she kept telling herself as she rocked Kimberly to sleep

Metaknight had come into the room where Dyna Blade and Kimberly were being held captive; he was waiting for either his henchman Captain Vul or Holt, Heath and Bo.

"They're alright, they're alright" Dyna Blade softly whispered to Kimberly who was beginning to fall asleep.

[BACK ON THE DECK]

The Waddledee soldiers were showing their gratitude to the boys by telling them where there mother and sister were being held captive;

"They're over up in the Metaknight's quarters up there, be careful" said a soldier

"Thanks guys, now…go do whatever is you do…I guess" said Heath

"SIRS, YES, SIRS!" exclaimed the soldiers as they went off to go do their jobs.

"Alright guys, time to kick some serious ass!" exclaimed Holt as the boys flew right to Metaknight's quarters.

[METAKNIGHT'S QURARTERS]

The boys burst through the window, but Metaknight was anticipating their arrival. Dyna Blade couldn't be the more happier to see them;

"I KNEW YOU BOYS WERE ALIVE!" she exclaimed happily

Kimberly chirped happily as her green eyes bulged and began to water as she cried tears of happiness

"That's right Kimberly, the boys are the best!" exclaimed Dyna Blade

Metaknight began to get cross at Dyna Blade and Kimberly

"Grrr…Will you two bitches shut up?" he exclaimed

Upon hearing that, Holt saw red;

"I'LL SHOW YOU WHO IS A BITCH!" exclaimed Holt

He quickly charged at Metaknight, but Metaknight had seen this coming as Holt was charging at him but Metaknight pulled out his sword and quickly sliced Holt right in his stomach. This mortified everybody;

"HOLT!" everyone (except Kimberly and Metaknight) exclaimed

Holt lay there bleeding but luckily for him there were a couple of Waddledee medics aboard the ship who quickly put him on a gurney and rushed Holt to the medical room;

"COME ON THE CAPTAIN'S LOSING BLOOD! MOVE! MOVE! MOVE!" exclaimed the Waddledee medic

While that had distracted Metaknight, Bo was able to disable Dyna Blade's cage freeing her and Kimberly, now Dyna Blade could get her revenge on Metaknight for hurting Holt.

"This is what you get for hurting my firstborn son!" exclaimed Dyna Blade

Using her razor sharp wings, she smacked his sword right out of his hands and it stuck straight into a wall, Metaknight was fearful;

"Aw shit" and those were Metaknight's last words before Dyna Blade, using her sharp beak ripped off his flesh killing him instantly.

Dyna Blade could care less at what she had done, her first instinct was Holt. Quickly they all rushed to the portside of the Halberd where they could see through a window, the doctors operating on Holt. Seeing this brought Dyna Blade to tears;

"That's my baby in there!" she cried

Kimberly cried a little too but solely because her mother was and she was too young to understand what was going on.

[AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER]

A Waddledee medic had come outside to see a still weeping Dyna Blade and the boys playing with their little sister because she didn't know what was going on.

"Well ma'am…Holt's lost a lot of blood, he may not survive" said the saddened medic

Bo began to get angry;

"DON'T YOU SAY THAT, THAT'S MY BROTHER AND HE'S A FIGHTER DAMN IT!" exclaimed Bo

Heath was shocked to see Bo act that way, normally Bo is quiet and calm but not when it comes to Holt being hurt. Dyna Blade and everybody went into the medical room where Holt was laying on a bed where he was attached to a Heart Monitor and breathing through a Respirator. It killed Dyna Blade to see Holt like this; she began to rub his head a little bit;

"You are my sunshine…my only sunshine; you make me happy when skies are gray…." She softly whispered in Holt's ear.

Day was turning into night and Dyna Blade instructed everyone to just turn in, but Kimberly wanted to stay with Holt so she jumped on the bed, lifted up his right wing and slept with it over her as a sort of "Security Blanket"

"Don't worry ma, I'll stay with them" said Bo

"I'll stay with mom then" said Heath as they all turned in for the night.
