Alright, let's get some questions answered!

Reviewer Thanks

SweetAngel1183: 1) B.J. stands for Bone-Jacker. 2) I'm not saying who captured Kenta or why... yet. 3) Thanks so much for the review! 4) I hope you enjoy this next chapter.

"K-Kenta?" B.J. gasped, his voice coming out higher than expected. "What deh bloody heck are YOU doin' here?"

"Preparing to finish something we started a long time ago," Kenta snarled, keeping him pinned to the ground.

B.J. looked around. "Best if ya didn't, lass. Not on t'is ship,"

Kenta looked around, noticing a couple sailors- a blue alien with four arms and an Italian man- were looking at them, confused. "Fine..." she got off of the scrawny boy, then grabbed him by the wrist when he stood up and pulled him around the corner, pinning him to the wall. "But don't think I won't let you go,"

He sneered at her. "What's yer problem, woman?" He asked dumbly, in his manly voice.

"You darn well know. ...And why do you keep talking with a low voice?"

"Is there something wrong, B.J.?" Another voice asked, and they turned and saw Ninn (or was it Tesoro or Sapphire?) standing before them. Judging from the tone of her voice, B.J. guessed Ninn. She had the large wolf-creature with her.

"Not'ing I can't handle, lass," B.J. said. "Kenta an' I were jus' gettin' reacquainted, dat's all."

Kenta scoffed. "If you call this a re-acquainting." she said, then punched him. He fell to the ground, his nose bleeding.

Wulfgang snarled and grabbed Kenta before she could do any more harm. "WHOA! What the heck is going on?" A frantic voice cried, and BEN rushed over, and gasped when he saw B.J. "Holy cow, Kenta! What'd you do?"

"What I'm TRYING to do is get back at that low-life!" Kenta spat, trying to squirm free of Wulfgang's grip. "Let go of me, you stupid wolf!" In response, Wulfgang tightened his grip.

"Hey, what's all the hub-bub?" Gene asked as he and Louigi rushed around the corner.

"Kenta's just trying to kill B.J." Ninn replied, shrugging. "Nothing too big,"

"I beg tah differ," B.J. scoffed, his voice a little higher, then cleared his throat and spoke in his manly voice. "I consider it a big deal,"

"Well, sorry Kenta, but Captain Jimmy doesn't allow brawling on his ship," BEN said, apologetically. "You'll have to do it later when we reach port,"

"I don't think so, BEN," Louigi said. "I believe Kenta won't be able to do that until after the voyage is-a finite... when she's outta the brig,"

"What?" Kenta shouted.

Gene shrugged. "Sorry, Kent, rules are rules." he said, then looked at Wulfgang. "Take her away, Wolf-Boy."

Wulfgang nodded and carried Kenta off, ignoring her threatening curses, kicking and screaming. B.J. watched her go, wiping off the blood below his nostrils. "I t'ink she broke me nose," he said.

Wulfgang threw Kenta into the cell and slammed the door. "Let me out, you rotten wolf!" she shouted, gripping and rattling the cell door. He snarled in her face and she backed off, and he walked off. She sighed and sat down in a corner. "Great. It's bad enough the plan is blown... now that rotten Bone-Jacker is on the ship!"

"Bone-Jacker? Alive?" A high-pitched voice squealed. Kenta expected to see Shifter, but instead she saw Morph.

She sneered at the shape-shifter. "Yeah, that's right. One of your old pals is still alive... and I'm in the brig." She let out an irritated sigh, knowing it was her own fault. "I guess you're happy about it."

Morph chattered with delight, turning into a mini array of fireworks. Kenta sighed, then took off her gloves, looking at her robotic hands with a saddened expression, and Morph paused, his expression turning into sympathy. He remembered what had happened on that ship- even though he was busy fighting Shifter, he saw the blood... which made him lose his focus and allowed Shifter to knock him into the mast. He chirped softly to Kenta.

"Ah, don't act so sympathetic, you little blob. Thanks to my temper, I lost my chance to get back at Silver." She glowered at her hands. "Now I have two things to live without..."

"That's what you get for trying to get revenge- you only end up getting yourself hurt," She heard a voice say, and looked over and saw Jonesy.

She scowled at him. "What do you want, cabin-boy?"

He sat down on a barrel, looking coldly at her. "Answers. I want to know exactly why you're out to get us."

Kenta sneered, but then smiled. "Fine, lad. ...I think it would be best if you knew more about your father, anyway... before he met your mother, that is."

Jonesy's eyes narrowed in suspicion, wondering what Kenta was talking about... and wished he didn't ask to find out.

"You see, your father and I used to work together, until he stabbed me in the back and made off with the goods. I'd be dead, if it wasn't for a friend..."

Kenta woke up in a bed, and suddenly became wary... and dizzy. She began feeling her head... and the first thing she noticed was that her wrists were bandaged, showing that little nubs were in place of her hands. "Oh, blast it..." she sighed.

"Quite a scene you had back there," A voice said, and she looked over and saw a man with gray hair and a gray handlebar mustache, cleaning a gun. "Luckily those blaggard pirates didn't catch up with us."

She heard a high-pitched squeal, and was soon greeted by Shifter's kisses. "You're alive! You're alive! You're alive! You're ALIVE!" the orange morph exclaimed between each smooch.

The man chuckled. "She's been hovering beside you ever since you blacked out. You can't get more loyalty than that," He set his gun aside. "So... what was all that about, back on that ship? Did they kidnap you, or something?"

Kenta scowled, and turned away from the man. "No. One of those pirates talked me into finding a map to the loot of a thousand worlds, then decided to have me killed once he got it." She wanted to clench her fist, but she didn't have a fist to clench anymore, she realized.

The man shook his head. "That's what pirates tend to do to- they lure you in, making you think you can trust them, and then they let you have it when your guard is down."

Kenta sighed, sitting up in the bed and looked out a window, seeing that they were in some city on a different planet. "Silver didn't seem like that sort of pirate,"

The man chuckled harder. "Silver? Was that the name of one of the pirates?"

She nodded. "Yes... Why is it so funny?"

The man shook his head, still snickering. "You're not going to believe this, but 'Silver' just so happens to be my name as well- Silver 'Bullet' Huntz."

"Hmm. Small world. I know two men named Silver- one of them tried to kill me, and the other one saved me."

Silver shrugged. "I just happened to be in the area. The 'rescue' was unexpected, just like the planet's quake, but from that point I couldn't just let those pirates have you... especially what they've already done to you..."

She looked at her hands, and tears began to form in her eyes. "I'm going to kill him..." She got out of the bed. "I swear, I will find him and hunt him down!"

Silver rolled his eyes. "Don't worry, young lady. Karma will get him for you."

"No... Not just for my hands, but for taking my trust and destroying it."

He shrugged. "Okay. ...But, first, come with me. If you're going to get revenge, you're going to need the hands for it, and I know a doctor that can give you a new pair- weapons included."

She grinned. "Thank you, Mr. Huntz. ...I'm curious, though- what were you doing on that planet in the first place?"

Silver walked over to a large bag, picking it up and carrying it over his shoulder, and Kenta saw a trace of fur sticking out of it. "Hunting. ...So, what's your name?"

Kenta took her eyes off the bag and turned back to him. "Kenta. Kenta Jade."

"A-HEM." Shifter scoffed.

"Oh, and this is Shifter,"

Silver smiled. "Please to meet you both," he said. "Now, come along ladies. We have a long day ahead of us,"

"...We separated after he helped me get my hands," Kenta finished. She looked over and saw the shock on Jonesy's face. "Didn't expect your father to be so cruel, did you? Always thought he treated everyone the same as your precious girlfriend's father, right? Well, get this, cabin-boy- he was never that kind and trustworthy." She grinned wider. "In fact, word's going around that you're just like him- untrustworthy. After that stunt you pulled with Tesoro..."

"H-How did you find out about that?" Jonesy gasped.

Kenta smiled. "I have my sources..."

"Shifter,"

She rolled her eyes sarcastically. "Wow, you really are brilliant, aren't you? ...Well, too bad you didn't have the brains to show that you trust your girlfriend- blew that chance- and now... she doesn't trust you."

Jonesy shook his head. "No... She still trusts me! She's just... upset."

Kenta shook her head. "Lad, I may be out for revenge, but that doesn't mean I'm less than a woman. I know for a fact that when a man blows his trust with a woman- it's all over. ...Weren't you listening to my story?"

Jonesy shook his head. "That's all it was- a story. I don't trust you, Kenta- and I know Tess still trusts me!" he turned to leave, then looked back over his shoulder, glowering at her. "And if she doesn't, then you can bet your mechanical hands that I'm going to try to win her trust back!" And he left.

Morph turned into a giant pair of lips and blew a raspberry in Kenta's face, then followed Jonesy out the door. Kenta glowered... but grinned. She let out a whistle, and Shifter flew over to her, carrying the keys.

"Time to break some hearts, Shifter," she whispered, hiding the keys in her pocket. She wasn't going to escape just yet, if she wanted one of her plans to go right for once.

A/N: Ah, so we find out who this other Silver fellow is. But there's still questions: What was up with B.J.'s voice? What plan does Kenta have this time? (Will she pull it off?) And will Jonesy be able to gain Tesoro's trust again? Review, please! ...But no flames! Not if you want to end up as Silver's other victim! ...Er, the 'bad' Silver- I mean, the non-pirate Silver who, um... You know what, just don't flame.
