Chapter 2

Belle continued to follow behind Captain Hook to his ship which was still docked in port. However, once both she and the pirate captain were on the ship she was taken aback when she heard the long haired man throw his hand and hook up in the air while he shouted, "Alright you scurvy dogs! Raise the anchor! Hoist the sails, and let's get moving!" She then saw him lower his arms and noticed that he was looking at a short elderly man when he added, "Oh and Mr. Smee, be a good lad and take our new "guest" below deck for now."

"Oh, right away Cap'n." The stripped shirt wearing man replied, before the young woman saw him walk over to her. After that was done she saw him motion with his hands to follow her as he went on, "Right this way, Miss."

Belle took one last look back at the town from behind her right shoulder. She then felt a tear run down her face as she realized that her father was most certainly having a panic attack from her sudden disappearance. But not thinking of a way off of this ship she just started to follow behind Mr. Smee down below deck. While she did this though the young woman was surprised when the short man handed her a handkerchief to wipe the tears that were quietly falling down her face. And she did this she let out a quiet, "Thank you."

"Of course dear. But there's no need to cry since the Cap'n has no deserve to hurt you." The elderly man explained as the two came to a ocrner and sat down.

"What do you mean by that? Aren't I his prisoner?" Belle questioned, while she leaned up against a nearby pole.

"Erm well yes I suppose you are. But you see the Cap'n only needed a second young woman to use as bait to lure out Peter Pan. Because you see once we go and get Miss Wendy then the Cap'n will force Peter to choose which one of you he'll save." Smee imformed her, to which then started to walk over to a mop and bucket and clean.

"What?! Why that's just...well that's just crazy!" The brunette exclaimed, before she started to run towards the small set of stairs that she and Smee had walked down from a few moments ago.

"Oh Miss, wait a minute! I wouldn't do that if I were you, woah!" Smee tried to yell out to hwich he had to stop himself from doing so from getting his foot stuck in the bucket and thus falling forward.

And upon seeing the door open thus fully the light from outside prompted Belle to smile as she hoping to be able to back onto the ship's deck and possibly find a life boat to use to get out of there. SAdly however these hopes were dashed when she saw Captain Hook walk down below which caused her to bump into him. Though when the young woman almost fell backwards she grabbed by the captain's hand and pull forward before he asked, "And just what do you think you're doing, my dear?"

"I'm getting off of this ship!" Belle snapped back, as she attempted to put a brave face.

"Oh, I see." Hook replied, while he got he face close to hers. And upon doing so his expression changed to that of anger as he added in a loud voice, "THEN YOU CAN WALK THE PLANK!" She then brought back up on deck and tied up to the main pole of the ship by some of Hooks' men before he went on with in a slightly calmer voice, "But you won't be doing that until we reach NeverLand. Until then you'll be tied up here so that you won't try something like that again."

Hearing this prompted Belle to hang her head in defeat as she figured that her chance to escape was finally put to a stop. But within a minute or two her head shot up in shock when she her a voice from above them as it said, "Greetings and salivations Captain Hook. This is Captain Don Karnage speaking to you right now."

"It's salutations you dumb mutt!" Hook shouted back, with a very unpleased expression on his face.

"Dumb mutt?! Did you just call the Leader of the Air Pirates Don Karnage - which is me a dumb mutt?! How dare you call me that!" The other person shouted, clearly angered by the sea captains words.

To her surprise Belle saw Hook just wave his wave dismissively up at him before he replied, "Oh come down Captain Karnage, I only called you that because you came at a bad time is all. Now just tell me what you want and then I'll be on me way."

"Oh getting right to the point eh? Very well then Captain Hook, I'll tell you why I and my crew are about to broad your ship." The other pirate responded back with, before Belle looked up and saw a anthro wolf dressed in his own pirate attire land onto the boat followed by his own crew thanks in part to using a rope ladder. She then saw him pull out his sword from it's sheathe before he pointed it at Hook when he kept going, "You see Captain, I am here to save that lovely young lady you have tied up over there. But if you willingly hand her over then I won't have to best you in a sword fight. So what do you say Hook? Sound like a good deal? Yes, no?"

"How about no, Captain Karnage!" Hook shouted, as he pulled out his own sword and the two clashed with one another.

Once this happened Belle watched as the two pirate captains dueled one another while all of their men started to fight one another as well. This caused nothing but chaos abroad the large ship as the young woman found herself closing her eyes here and there when different men both human and anthros were flung here and there among the ship. But while all of htis was going both Hook and Karnage moved about the ship swords clashing while dodging or parrying one another's upcoming attacks whenever the chance presents itself. But while this was going on Belle felt the ropes that were tired around her losen until they fell off completely. After this was done she was quite surprised to see two members from the Air Pirates now standing in front of her. The shorter of two anthros then walked past her and put his hands in front of his mouth before he shouted in a nasally voice, "Captain, we, I mean I untied the pretty lady!"

"What?! You were suppose to let me do that!" Don yelled back as he dodged one of Hook's incoming attacks.

"You'd best stop worrying about the young lady and focus on us fighting each other Karnage!" Hook commented, while the anthro wolf blocked his attack with his Cutlass.

However, the red clothed sea pirate had a trick up his sleeve as he used his hook to a take a hold of the wolf's sword. Then to Don Karnage's surprise he saw Hook pin him up against the back of the ship with his sword. And after doing this he took a hold of the anthro's own sword and pushed it up against his neck while he told him, "Ha! Looks like I've got the upper hand now Captain Karnage."

Seeing this caused Belle to let out a gasp upon seeing the main person who seemed to want to save her being pinned up against the back of the ship. She then proceeded to look around to find something to use to help the anthro captain gain the upper hand against Captain Hook. And at that very moment Mr. Smee walk back up on to deck. And upon doing so the young woman saw the elderly man look from left to right before he shouted, "Oh my goodness, Cap'n! what's going on here?!"

The brunette then focused on the bucket and mop for a moment to which and idea came to her as she let out, "Wait, that's it." She then ran over to the short man and took the bucket and mop from him while she quickly added on, "I need to borrow these for a moment."

"Oh, of course dear. No, wait!" Mr. Smee, protested before he found himself falling forward again this time due to one of the sky pirates sticking out their leg in front of him.

And when she heard this sound amongst the various small skirmishes on the large boat Belle looked back at Mr. Smee for a second before turning her gaze back to the two pirate captains. However right before she was able to reach the two a large priate blocked her block. She then saw him grin at her and start to walk towards her. But before she pirate could lay a finger on her she heard heavy footsteps followed by seeing the large anthro canine from earlier as he tackled the sea priate thus ending him flying up against a nearby pole.

She then looked up at the large canine and smile as she let out a quiet, "Thank you."

And after doing so she quietly sneaked up behind Captain Hook while he asked Karnage, "So, do you have any last words Captain Karnage?"

Upon hearing this Belle lifted up the mop and swung it over Hook's head thus causing his hat to fall off. This causes the long haired man to turn around. Once he did this though Belle quickly put the bucket on his causing all of the water to pour out of it and Hooks' to become stuck in the bucket. This caused him to drop Karnage's sword and run around the ship in a panic while he shouted, "Smee! Get this bucket off of me, Smee!"

Seeing this caused the brunette haired woman to laugh a little bit as she saw the sea captain run around in a panic. Though her attention was soon brought over to Don Karnage as he picked up his sword and put it away while he dusted himself off and commensted, "Thank you for the help madam. Although I oculd of gotten out of that situation myself."

"I'm sure you could have. But I think we'd best get out of here while we can." Belle replied, to which she saw the anthro wolf nod his head in agreement.

She was then grabbed by the hand and brought over to a rope ladder as the anthro wolf motioned with his hands for her to use the ladder first as he said, "After you." Seeing this cuased her to smile a little as she took a hold of the ladder and climbed up it until she was inside the airship of these sky pirates. Once that was done she found herself looking out of the open doorway and back down at the ship as she let out a sigh of relief knowing she was off of that ship. Hopefully for good.
