He spun and raised his sword, using a parry six, he smirked when he heard the

snap of a shoulder breaking. The pirate before him dropped the sword, howling in pain before Anna drove her sword threw his body. He choked on his own vomit and blood before Anna pulled her sword free and they exchanged breif eye-contact. They nodded and Heero spun on his heel, walking hurriedly down the stairs and into the darkness below.

A maze of corridors, passages, and stairwells faced him and he groaned inwardly. The best way to find the captain would be to follow sounds. But, there were no sounds to be heard except for the clash of metal, boom of a cannon, and the sharp bang of a pistol. Smoke-grey haze littered the area he was in and he strained to see in the dimness.

Then there was a body flinging itself at him. Wild chestnut hair hung around him, twisting in the movements it's owner made. Heero leaped back, clashing swords with the other captain. "Duo?" he asked.

"You the captain that's attacking my ship?"

"Are you the captain that's invading my territory?" Heero demanded.

"Yep."

"Then prepare to die."

"I've always been prepared to die."

Neither captain noticed a pirate from Duo's ship carrying a ring of keys slipped

past them and down a stairwell leading to the prison area.
