Catherine Escapes

The wolf whistles were louder as Beka entered the prison. Her dark blond hair was so short you couldn't do anything with it. She wore a purple bandana around her head to keep her hair out of her bight blue eyes, a pink v-neck shirt with the ends cut in strips at the sleeves and at the waist. With it was a pair of navy blue trousers that had big patches missing, with black boots over the bottom of them.

A purple haired girl with light blue highlights darted out from behind her, and stopped in front of Cathy's cell. This girl wore a similar outfit as Cathy but her shirt was two-tone red and the strap was on the other side, her trousers were sky blue with ice blue patches and she had on black boots. She also had a gold chocker with an ice blue heart around her neck and around her left arm was a sliver arm band.

The Russian smirked. "Bout time." she chuckled. Beka gave her a high five.

"Do you really think we'd leave you to rot in a cell?" she smiled back, before glancing down at the purple haired girl. "How's it going Kierra?" she questioned.

The lock gave a small click, and Kierra smirked as she pulled it open. Cathy skipped out, waving her arms around. "I'm free, I'm free!" she cheered. Suddenly Cathy skipped over to a wooden cupboard and began to pull out a few things. The other prisoners watched as a gun was strapped to Cathy's left hip, a sword strapped to her right hip and a large ice blue hat was placed on her head.

"Come on. The others will be getting more plunder then us." Kierra muttered, with a thick British accent, opening the wooden door. The two other followed her out, ignoring the pleas from the other prisoners.


Kai drew his sword and ran into the market place. He had never seen so much chaos, and he knew at once pirates were to blame.

Girls were screaming, and fires raged. Suddenly out of no-where, Cathy appeared before Kai. "Well, well, well!!!! If it isn't the Governor's grandson. Fancy crossing blades with a pirate?" she chuckled, her sword shining in the fire, not realizing that it was her twin. Kai let out a battle cry and went for the kill.

Somewhere else in the port, Tyson Granger and his friend Ray Kon, were stealing as much stuff as they could. Tyson turned and caught sight of Cathy. "Hey Ray, is that Phoenix?" he asked. The neko-jin raised an eyebrow before nodding his head.

"Yep. Looks like she's fighting the Governor's grandson." he replied, pulling a sack over his shoulder. "Come on!" Ray ordered, nodding his head towards The Blazing Nova.

Kai gritted his teeth as both of them were caught in a deadlock. Cathy suddenly gasped, before pulled free and backed away. Kai stumbled back and glared at Cathy. "Ferio? Is it really you?" she asked using her childhood nickname for her twin. Kai stared at her, not believing what he just heard.

"Presea?" Kai asked as he stepped forward. Only to have Kevin hit him across the back of the head, with a sliver candle holder.

The pirate chuckled and shook her head, as he and his impish friend, Joseph, headed back to The Blazing Nova Cathy scratched her forehead, and stared at her twin. Shrugging, Cathy grabbed hold of him and brought him back to her ship.

"Bloody hell brother. You weight a ton." she groaned.


"STOP!! Were are you going with Master Kai?" Captain Hawkins yelled as Cathy turned around to face him.

"Dunga!! Take him below for me!!" Cathy called over her shoulder.

"Aye Captain Catherine!" Dunga said before taking Kai from Cathy and walking onto the ship and disappeared.

"Hello Captain Hawkie, long time no see!!!" Cathy giggled.

"K...kitten?!" Captain Hawkins asked surprised.

"Yes it is I. Do not worry about Ferio, he will be fine, I will make sure of it!!!" Cathy said as she walked backwards onto the ship.

"It was good to see you again, Captain Hawkie!!! When this is over Ferio and I will return!!" She yelled laughingly as the ship pulled away from the Port.

"KITTEN!!!!" Captain Hawkins yelled as he watched the ship sail away, he could still see his young mistress; that had been kidnapped by a pirate that had attacked his ship when she had been out sailing with him fourteen years ago; was watching him standing there on the dock.


After awhile Cathy went down to the cell where her brother was. "This is only for the time being." she whispered to him. Walking to the top deck, Cathy stretched and looked; a little sadly; at the shrinking Port Phoenix.

"Welcome back Cathy!" some of the pirates called. The Russian smiled, waving them off, and joined her friends in the cabin. She slipped in wordlessly, as Beka looked over her necklace as Kierra sat on the table next to her looking at her own necklace. They were shaped like a key, but there was not other part to it.

"So how was jail?" Beka asked suddenly. She smirked at her friend, as Cathy grabbed an apple and sat down. The Russian pirate shrugged, placing her feet on the table.

"Dunno. Wasn't in there long enough." she replied, before something shoved its head under her arm. She squeaked again and cuddled her pet panther. The black panther was fully grown and had an ice blue collar around its neck. "Alcyone! How ya been? I bet you missed me." she cooed, as the panther purred happily. Beka chuckled, grabbed a raisin from the fruit bowl.

"Mokona!" she called. A little tan and black pet monkey swung from his perch, and slowly took the raisin out of her hand. Mokona had a sliver collar. He sat on the table nibbling it as a reddish brown wolf walked up to Kierra who petted it.

"Good boy Inouva." Kierra whispered softly. Inouva was a reddish brown wolf that was more red than brown and he had a gold collar

"So, where to now?" Cathy asked, still petting Alcyone.

"Port Sesame. I do believe we may find something there from our dear hostage." Beka chuckled.


SB/Kierra: Why dose Cathy have a pet panther? I want one too.

Annie: You wanted a wolf, Kierra. You bugged me to no end until I agreed to let you have a wolf. Plus it was only recently that I decided that instead of a beagle she would have a panther, a black one at that.

SB/Kierra: Oh...

Annie: I will let you have a panther in the next story that we are both in, okay?

SB/Kierra: Okay. We hope have enjoyed the chapter!!!!

Annie: Review please or I won't update next week!!!! Bye!!!!!!!

SB/Kierra: Cya!!!!!!!
