Henry grabbed tightly to Mary and dive-bombed at full speed to the ship. Then, suddenly beat his wings, coming to a sudden stop, and released Mary onto the ship.
"Captain…" Mary growled as she clenched her fingers into a fist, about to punch Henry in the face. "Don't ever do… that… again…" Mary turned and looked at the large group of marines who had encircled the two.
"Hm… Captain Henry… that has a nice ring to it. What?" Henry said obliviously smiling, while looking around at the Marines. "Wow, this'll be fun." He whistled.
"What?! There have to at least a hundred marines here. I can take two or three, but this many?!" Mary said gripping her swords.
"You two! Why are you here?!" a marine shouted at the two.
"Who us?" Henry said looking around.
"Who else would they be talking to?!" Mary yelled to Henry.
"You have ten seconds to tell us who you are or we execute the two of you." The marine continued.
"Oh, well we're just two traveling merchants who—" Mary tried to say.
"We're pirates and we're going to take back two prisoners you have." Henry cut in.
"Pirates?" the marine said. "Men, to arms; kill the two of them."
"You see what you've gotten us into." Mary told Henry.
"Well how else are we going to get them out without stopping these guys?" Henry replied.
"You idiot! Haven't you ever heard of subtlety?!"
The marines grabbed their swords and rushed the two. Mary blocked the attacks of two marines with one sword and countered, bringing them to their knees. She noticed another attack coming near her blocked it with her second sword.
While, Henry ducked a slash and kicked the marine into two others who fell off of the ship together.
Mary flipped over Henry and slammed her foot into another marines face, just as he was about to stab Henry, knocking him out cold
Henry ran into another marine, grabbed him and slung him around, like a rag-doll, into a group of other marines. Who all went off the boat together. Another marine ran forward and tried to slash at Henry, who kicked him in the chin, making him sail into the air.
Mary was ducked an attack from the last marine on the ship and was about to slit his throat, when Henry ran and grabbed her arms to stop her.
"Wait a second." He said. Henry walked up to a cowering marine, who let his sword slip out of his hand in fear. "So… where are the prisoners?" he asked cheerfully
"Th-th-the prisoners are kept on a lower deck of the ship" the marine stammered
"Thanks." Henry smiled and tossed the marine over a railing on the ship, into the sea. "We make a good team" he said turning to Mary.
"Don't ever do something that stupid again or I'm going to leave your crew." She warned him menacingly.
Henry made a face as if he had just been punched in the gut, and started crying. "No please don't leave my crew." He said as he collapsed onto the ground and began to hug her leg.
"Do you know how pathetic you look?" she sighed as she looked down at him and kicked him off of her leg, "Let's just go get my friends out."
"So are you going to leave my crew?"
"Not yet…" Mary sighed as she strolled into a door.
"Hey where are you going?" he said as he ran after his crew-mate.
