Elvengirl10: Okay, right. I'm back for chapter five. Which will be the last
chapter I post before my vacation.
Sain: Why are you telling them?
Elvengirl10: Same reason I told Koga in "Shippo's Big Adventure" So that I don't forget.
Sain: Oh.
Reviewers:
Firelien: Thanks, I'm glad you like it. And yeah, I am aware that Jaffar is a bit too talkative, but I'm trying to fix that.
Sword of Seals: Thanks. I know it took me a while to update. Thanks for being do patient.
Katelynn (x2): I'm glad you like it. I see we have similar views on Sonia. But unfortunately, I don't think Kenshin would kill Jaffar. Sano might, but not Kenshin.
Elvengirl10: So yes, thank you all for your wonderful reviews. Here is chapter five, most likely an upgraded version as well, for your enjoyment.
It took Ephidel three days to fully recover. Then came the hard part. Getting a ship and finding the pirates.
Ephidel sent Leila out to gather information. She came back incredibly excited.
"Okay, here's what I found out. There's a pirate being held in a nearby prison. Nobody's sure if he's associated with the pirates that attacked or not though."
"Ephidel nodded. 'Here we go again' though Jaffar.
"Here's the plan. We find out more about this imprisoned pirate, spring him from jail, get him to take us to the cursed pirates, and then we go get Ninian back. How's that sound?"
"What if this pirate doesn't know about the cursed pirates?" Linus asked.
"Must you be so technical? Theoretically speaking, it works."
"May I ask who-"Leila was cut off when Jaffar gave her a sudden "don't ask that" look.
"Excellent question Leila. It'll be you and Jaffar, who to the pirate."
'So that's why he didn't want me to say anything," thought Leila.
Later that night, two shadowy figures wound their way to the prison on the edge of town.
"This is such a hypocritical town," remarked Leila, "I mean, they welcome some pirates, yet imprison others."
"....."
Leila opened the prison door without a sound and the two went in. Wordlessly, they set to work finding out which cell contained the pirate they were looking for. It didn't take long, as most of the cells were empty.
"Hey, you. Wake up," said Jaffar, threateningly.
"Huh? What do you want?" came an annoyed reply.
"Information," Jaffar said.
"Say, aren't you the angel of death?"
"Yes, who are you?"
"Captain Jack Sparrow, mate" he stuck his hand out, as if to shake hands. Jaffar made no return gesture.
"I'm Leila. Are you in anyway associated with the pirates that attacked here?" she asked, getting straight to the point.
"Why should I tell you?"
"Because, they stole... something important from us," said Leila, keeping Ninian a secret.
"'Us'? You mean there are more of you? Anyways, I still don't see the incentive for me to help you. What do I gain?"
"I can set you free. So, do we have deal?"
"Y-yes. Now, get me out."
Leila quickly undid the lock and the three ran swiftly to the inn.
Ephidel sat down across the table from Captain Jack Sparrow.
"So, when were you imprisoned here?" he asked.
"Day before the pirates attacked."
"You're not associated with them in any way?"
"No, do I look like I am?"
"Fine, then what were you doing here?"
"Trying to get a ship."
"For what reason?"
"To get my real ship back."
"Who has your real ship?"
"The pirates that attacked here. Makara's crew."
"But, you just said you weren't associated with them!!!" This conversation was going nowhere.
"I was, until I was put on godforsaken island in the middle of nowhere and watched them sail off into the distance with my ship."
"Ah, so you're a victim of mutiny. Very well then, you're hired."
"Hired? For what?"
"To help us get back what they stole from us. It's simple really. We help you, you help us."
"You dive a hard bargain. Very well..."
"My name is Ephidel."
"Very well Ephidel. You got yourself a deal."
Jaffar was once again on the roof of the inn. After the excitement with the pirate, things had quieted down and once again, there was boredom. Jaffar was just about to fall asleep, when a loud scream woke him up and he nearly fell off the roof. Looking over to see where the scream came from, Jaffar could see a young girl with pink hair. She was screaming at the body of a dead bandit that her escort, a young man with dirty blond hair, had just killed.
"Matthew!!! Why did you do that?" the girl shrieked. Matthew didn't bother responding and kept walking towards the inn. Jaffar went back inside. 'This will be a long night,' he thought to himself.
Elvengirl10: There we go. Chapter five. Chapter six will come in two weeks, as, like I said, that is when I'm coming home.
Ephidel: Please review!!!
Sain: Why are you telling them?
Elvengirl10: Same reason I told Koga in "Shippo's Big Adventure" So that I don't forget.
