Chapter: Captured!
Max sighed as his best friend Tyson swam around the pasture of seaweed.
"C'mon Tyson!" Max shouted. "Stop playing and let's get to the stables!"
"Ok ok" Tyson laughed as they swam towards the seahorse stables. "I know that you have a thing for Michael, but does it really have to conflict with my fun?"
Max blushed. Michael was the stable's master for the Kinomiya family, much to Max's dismay. Tyson also knew that Michael had a thing for Max as well, but since he only saw the blond merboy only once a year, he didn't get to talk to him much.
"Let's just go" Max muttered through his blush.
The stables were one of Tyson's favorite places in the whole ocean…well maybe besides the royal kitchen. He loved how there seahorses were friendly and all different colors.
"Prince Tyson! Prince Max!" Michael called from one of the stables.
"Michael!" Tyson said swimming over to the red tailed merman.
Micheal was 17, one year older than Max and Tyson. He had wild red hair and bright red fins to match it. Tyson often said if it hadn't been for the fact that they were in water, he would've mistaken Micheal as flowing fire. Of course, Max would whap him with his tail for insulting the man he liked while getting a chuckle out of Micheal at Max's tactics to shut Tyson up. They often came to the stables while Max was visiting to going racing and today were be no different.
"Hey you guys" Micheal said placing a saddle onto a blue seahorse. "I saw you coming and was guessing that you would want to go racing"
"How did you know?" Tyson giggled as he patted the blue seahorse's head. "Hey there Tide"
Tide nudged his nose into the prince's palm hoping for treats. Tyson laughed. Micheal blushed slightly as he helped Max saddle his purple seahorse, Seashell.
"So where do your highnesses want to go today?" Micheal asked as they exited the stable.
"Anywhere's fine with me" Max said blushing.
"Let's go to the caves out near the edge of town" Tyson suggested knowing that there would be plenty of privacy to the two.
Max and Micheal both blushed and turned away heading in the direction of the caves. Tyson smiled sadly, everyone had someone but him. He wished that he had a crush on someone.
'Oh well' Tyson thought. 'No use thinking about it. Dad and Hiro or Gramps will pick someone for me'
The one rule of the Kinomiya family was if you didn't find someone you wished to marry by your 17th birthday, the elders of the house would pick one for you.
"Tyson!" Max shouted breaking Tyson's thoughts. "Hurry up or we're leaving without you!"
Tyson grinned as he rode passed the lovers.
"Hurry up or all of the good caves will be gone!" Tyson teased making Micheal and Max turn the color of the coral.
"Tyson!" Max shouted as they rode after him while being forced to listen to Tyson's cat calling and laughing.

/At the Fire Born Castle: Flamia/
"You dare to come to me in the middle of my dinner conference" Voltaire growled at his grandson.
Kai, Rei, Brian, Tala, and Voltaire were standing in a large hallway off the main banquet room. They had request an audience with the King. Kai had told his suspicion of the Earth Nation's idea for gaining more power.
"Sire" Rei said stepping up to the great ruler of the Fire Born. "We have gathered from a valuable source that Earth Nation is trying to make an alliance with the Water Nation"
Voltaire's eyes went from Kai to Rei glaring at the neko-jin. He studied him for a minute. He sighs angrily.
"Very well" he said. "I want you to go to the Earth Nation's Kingdom, Gaia (A/N- sry couldn't think of a name) and confront Master Robert"
"Very well my lord" Kai said bowing thanking whatever deity was smiling upon him for not being punished.
"We'll accompany him" Brian said walking up to the King. "To make sure nothing goes wrong"
Voltaire nodded before returning to the dinning hall leaving the four boys in the corridor. Once the door slammed shut they all relaxed immensely.
"Thank the Gods that nothing happened" Rei breathed.
"Really" Tala said laughing slightly as they walked out. "I was expecting more"
"It's very unnerving" Kai admitted as they all walked to the royal port towards Kai's ship.
"Well" Rei said sitting down in a chair in Kai's cabin. "I think we should just be thankful and never mention this again"
"I agree with Rei" Brian said as everyone else sat down around the map table. "We need to focus on getting to the Earth Nation before dark if we don't want to face Lord Voltaire's wrath again"
Nodding the others started to make plans on how to handle Robert and his suspicious ties with the Water Nation.

/In the capital of the Earth Nation, Ambar/
/At the harbor/
"Is everything ready?" Robert demanded to captain who was running up to him.
"Yes m'lord" the captain said bowing. "Everything is ready"
"Excellent, Move out!" Robert shouting entering the boat.
"Sir?" the captain said walking up to Robert and bowing. "Where are we going exactly?"
"A very special place" Robert said smiling sinisterly. "Down there" He pointed to the sea as they sped through the water.
"B-but how!" the captain sputtered. "No human or beast can stay under the water except the water nation's people!"
"Well, I have found a way" Robert said walking towards his cabin. "I'll be in my rooms if you should need me"

/The Caves of the Coast, Water Nation/
"C'mon you guys!" Tyson whined as he sat on a rock. "I didn't really mean it!"
Max and Micheal had disappeared into one of caves and hadn't come out for about 2 hours and now Tyson was really bored and tired of the moans coming form the cave.
"Well" Micheal said sticking his head outside of the cave. "If you didn't want us to do anything, next time don't tease us"
Tyson puffed up his cheeks cutely in a mock pout. Micheal laughed and Max appeared next to him.
"Blackmail!" Max shouted as he snapped a picture of Tyson with a hidden camera.
"MAX!" Tyson shouted chasing the blond merman while Micheal just laughed his head off.
Max grinned as he swam farther away from Tyson. Tyson growled in anger and followed him as fast as he could while Micheal shouted for them to com back.
"I'm gonna get you Max!" Tyson shouted as he made a grab for the yellow fin in front of him.
Max squealed with laughter and pulled his fin just out of Tyson's grasp.
"Come back here you!" Tyson shouted as they started to swim upwards.
"Catch me if you can!" Max shouted looking back at Tyson.
But Tyson wasn't smiling. In fact he had gone almost completely white. He looked terrified.
"Stop Max!" was all Tyson managed to get out of his mouth before something hit Max on the back of the head knocking him unconscious.
Tyson tore to his knocked out friend. He grabbed Max's arm and pulled him away from the thing that loomed overhead. A ship. A very big ship hit Max at ramming speed, thank god that it looked like the damage was minimal. Tyson glared at the boat. How dare they hurt his best friend! He swam up to the surface to with the full intent of giving those humans a piece of his mind.
"Hey!" Tyson shouted as he broke the surface. "You on the big block of wood! Watch where you're going!"
A man with purple hair looked outside his window at him with an annoyed expression.
"I beg your pardon?" he said in a commanding voice.
Tyson glared at the man while still holding the unconscious Max in his arms.
"You're stupid piece of wood hurt my friend here!" Tyson shouted back.
"This 'piece of wood' happens to be the fastest ship on the sea" shouted the purple haired man. "You should do well to show some respect for it!"
Tyson glared at the man again.
"I don't respect things that hurt others" he said evenly.
The purple haired man sighed.
"Alright, come aboard" he said waving his hand for Tyson to come closer. "I'll see if my doctor can help your friend there"
Tyson looked at the ship suspiciously. A ship was what caused the death of his mother and making all merfolk hate humans. But he was no doctor and didn't know how serious Max's injury was. All in all he didn't really have a choice.
"Fine" he said as the purpled haired man threw down a rope. "What's your name anyways?"
"Prince Robert of the Earth Nation" Robert said pulling Tyson and Max up. "And I'm guessing that you're from the Water Nation"
Tyson nodded as he landed rather disgracefully on the cabin floor since he had no legs to hold him up.
"I'm Prince Tyson of the North Sea. And this is Prince Max of the Southern Sea"
Robert's eyes shone with excitement.
'Excellent' he thought. 'Now it saves me the trouble from going and kidnapping the princes the hard way'
"Do you have any water or something?" Tyson asked as he flapped his fin on the ground. "As you can see, I'm kind of not able to walk like you humans"
"Of course" Robert said smiling evilly but Tyson didn't notice. "I have a bath tub you can use until we get to my home where my doctor is"
Tyson wondered what he had gotten him and Max into as the Robert ordered the captain to return to Earth Nation at once.
Tyson sighed. 'Gramps is gonna kill me'
