"Are you the captain of this ship?"
As soon as she said that, she regretted it.
The man slowly walked towards her. An eerie silence filled the room.

"A woman! On MY ship! Kio, is this YOUR doing!" the man asked, furious.
Kio backed up.
"S- sorry Cap'n... I-I didn't know w- we would be s- setting sail so soon."
"You're sorry? Sorry just don't cut it this time, Kio.She's gonna make my whole ship smell like 'girl'."
Sano could tell Kio was scared so he spoke up.
"Cap'n, it can't be that bad. She could... do the cooking and cleaning. Yeah, that's it. She's a woman, she's good at that stuff."
The Captain turned to Jade and circled her.
"Hmmm... you may be onto something here, Sano." he stared into Jade's eyes, "You can cook, can't you, love?"
"Of corse I can."
The Captain laughed.
"You show no sense of fear, love. Are you just hiding it though?"
Jade stood up straight.
"No, why would I be scared of someone like you. I've taken on guys ten times bigger that you."
Kio and Sano backed up by the doorway. Jade looked at them. They looked terrified, like they had just seen a ghost or something. But she still wasn't scared. She was a master swordsman... swordswoman and she wasn't bad with a gun either. The Captain laughed once again.
"You're bold enough to talk to me, Captain Marik Ishtar in this manner?" he drew his sword from it's sheath and took a fighting stance, "You can certainly talk the part. But I'll bet you're all bark and no bite."
"That's what you think. I could beat you and all your men without getting a scratch."
"Hm hm hm, I wouldn't even let you try it. My men may no look it but they can fight better than anyone I know. And they could certainly beat sown a girl like you." Marik smirked.
"Yeah yeah whatever. I'm just as happy fighting only you as I would be fighting your crew."
Jade looked around and spotted a glass case that held an old Japanese sword behind her. She took a few steps back. For every step she took, Marik took two steps forward. Finally, Jade reached the glass case. She slammed her fists. The glass shattered into small pieces that flew everywhere. She grabbed the sword that hung inside it and also took a fighting position.
Marik stared at her, even more angry than he was before. Then he smirked.
"You're serious about fighting e aren't you? Did you not hear me when I said I was Captain Marik Ishtar?"
"Yes I did. So what? Your name's girly and you look girly. I really could care less what your name is I just wanna fight so common! Quit trying to buy time because it isn't working."
Marik scowled.
"You're really gonna pay for this bitch! That's my father's sword you have there and not even I'm allowed to touch it. Also, I'm not trying to buy time; I just want you to make sure you know what you're getting yourself into."
"I'm waiting." Jade said with a hint of annoyance in her voice.
Marik bowed his head.
"Hm, your life will end today you know." he looked up at her and smiled evilly, then charged at her.
She blocked his attack then swung her sword around and hit him in the side. He flinched and stopped, staring at her.
"I must admit, love, you're better than I thought. I'm usually the one to make the first hit."
"I told you I was good. Now, LET'S GO!"
Jade ran, full speed towards him but stopped when she herd a loud noise from outside. Marik looked out the door along with everyone else. Another loud noise came, but this one was even louder that the first. It sounded like a bomb. Shortly after, the whole ship trembled. It was all Jade could do to keep herself from falling over. Once the ship was still again, the Captain rushed outside, pushing Jade out of his way.
When he got outside, he saw another ship that was dangerously close to his. They were attacking! He looked around and spotted one of his crew members laying down, surrounded by a pool of blood.
He got a closer look and saw that it was his first hand mate, Odian.
"Odian!" he yelled, "Joey! Come get Odian! Duke, Yami, Kio, man the cannons! Sano! Climb the lookout! Make sure no one from that ship gets over here! Try to find out who they are! Gojyo! Get the girl bellow deck! I deal with her later. Come on you scumbags! Get to work!"
Jade watched as a man with crimson hair came up to her and grabbed her arm.
"Come on, the Capt'n wants you bellow deck. Come with me."
Jade only hit the man on the head with the sword, knocking him out, then went to find Marik. She spotted him by the cannons keeping an eye on his men and ran to him.
"Hey, Marik! I thought we were going to fight!" she said.
"That can wait. I'm busy trying to save my ship right now."
"Well what do I do?"
"I told Gojyo to take you below deck. Where'd he go?"
"I knocked him out. Now let me help. What can I do?"
"Why do you want to help? I thought you wanted to kill me."
"I do. If I help you get rid of these guys, I can get to it faster."
"I don't need your help. Go below deck and start cooking or something. I don't care. Just as long as you're away from me."
Jade didn't move.
"I told you to go below deck!"
"You can't order me around! You don't own me!"
"No, love, I don't. But I own this ship. And you're on this ship, so you will do what I tell you to do. Now go below deck!"
Jade just sat in a corner and waited for it all to end.
"Hey! Look out!"
She looked up when she herd the captain yell. As soon as she did, someone grabbed her from behind. Just before he drug her off the ship, she grabbed Marik's gun that hung in it's pouch, around his waist. Everyone froze when they herd the loud splash of Jade and the man's body hit the water.
