"Make way! Make way!" A soldier called, making the men and women of all ages make a path around the gallows where the best pirate in the sea was to be executed. A young commodore with long black hair that was sported under his large hat made his way through the crowd and up into the gallows.

The pirate stood on top of the platform with his hands bound, looking up into the noose that would strangle him in minutes. His long dark hair was braided in the back along with old beads woven into his free locks. By the look of his face, you could tell how old he was, even though a small stubble was visible. "Where could they be...?" he asked himself, looking around into the crowd, trying to find at least a person he knew that wouldn't want to kill him. He found noone except a young girl that he helped save from other pirates.

The little girl looked up at him and back to her mother. "Mommy, why are they going to put that thing around his neck?" she asked. Her mother looked down at her daughter and shook her head, not wanting her daughter to know.

Bankotsu was growing very impatient and looked to the hangman to his left. "If you're going to kill me, do it already." he said. The hangman took one look at the dirty pirate and snorted. Bankotsu shrugged and started to mutter bad things about the hangman. "Well, at leastI have a girlfriend."

The hangman glared back at Bankotsu who just smirked. "I love you." Bankotsu said, wanting to make the hangman as pissed as possible. "Nice, isn't it? I get to dis you and you can't kill me because you don't have the orders yet." The pirate teased.

"And you call yourself the best pirate in the Caribbean. What a joke..." The hangman actually spoke, making Bankotsu surprised.

"And all this time I thought ye be retarded."


An hour passed in the hot sun until the hangman finally placed the noose over the pirate's neck. Bankotsu was actually nervous now...where was his crew? Weren't they supposed to come and save him?

Inuyasha stood only feet away from the platform and smirked at the prey. "There's no way you can escape now." he said, earning a death glare from Bankotsu.

'Jakotsu...if you don't get here in the next thirty seconds I'm going to come back and haunt you.' The pirate thought. Drums rang in his ears and he looked over to the hangman who had his hand on the lever, ready to thrust it back, sending Bankotsu to his death.

'Right now would be a good time to come and save me...' Bankotsu bounced on his heels waiting for his crew. The drums stopped. Inuyasha smiled as the hangman pulled the lever, making the platform underneath Bankotsu's feat let loose, and strangling him by the noose. At that same time, the crowd gasped as a large curved sword was thrown towards the gallows.

Bankotsu gasped for breath as he felt the noose strangle him by the throat. He tried to cough, but found even his throat closed and his air was running loose. But, the sword that was thrown came straight at him, and whipped right above Bankotsu's head.

The pirate found himself falling, and then on the ground as he looked up, gasping for breath. The sword that was thrown had cut straight through the noose and right into the hangman's chest.

Bankotsu looked to where the sword came from and saw his friend, swinging on a rope, yelling as he almost lost his balance. "BANKOTSU!"

The other pirate hanging onto the rope, held on for dear life, for if he fell, it would probably cause him to become very vulnerable. The pirate looked up towards the rope and realized he ran out of slack. Out of instinct mixed with stupidity, he let go of the rope, falling right onto the platform in the gallows, ending in a very scrambled tumble. This pirate looked very different than his Captain, for he wore the same thing, except he wore his hair down in a tangled mess with a dirty and sweaty bandana that went under his hair and on his forehead, tying in the back with many beads twisted into his hair. And his eyes were outlined with black and it almost seemed like he was a bloody woman.

Inuyasha screamed at his soldiers. "Get them!"

In less than seconds, soldiers of all sizes ran towards the gallows where Bankotsu and the other pirate stood. The other pirate immediately stood, and grabbed the hilt of his sword, yanking it out of the hangman's chest causing the body to jump a bit. "Sorry, mate." he said, almost smilingand jumped off of the platform to join Bankotsu.

Right as the other pirate reached his captain, the two were surrounded by the soldiers. Bankotsu sighed deeply. "What in bloody hell took you so long, Jakotsu?" They were now back to back, facing the spears in their faces.

"I was runnin' as fast as I could to get here!"

"Where are the others?"

"Our ship."

"My ship."

"We got it together, Captain."

"You mean, we commandeered it together." Bankotsu corrected his friend.

"Well, you're the captain, so what do you suppose we do...?

"I don't know."

"Shut the bloody hell up!" Inuyasha screamed at the two, pointing his sword under the captain's throat. "I suppose you find a way out of here before you two are killed...but, seeing as you're trapped you can't do nothing."

Jakotsu raised up his finger and asked to speak. "If you don't mind my saying...it's 'you can't do anything', love" He ended with a kinky smile which made Bankotsu just roll his eyes and snort. He knew his friend always had an obsession with the commodore...

"Shut up!" Inuyasha switched his sword to Jakotsu's throat and shook his head. "Take them to the cells!"

Then, the kinky pirate burst out in the most excitement Bankotsu had ever seen. "Oooh, the cells! Let's go to the cells! What are the cells?" He asked, specifically to Bankotsu.


"'What are the cells?' You ask. You're such an idiot, Jakotsu."

"How was I supposed to know that the cells meant the jail, huh, Captain?"

"Great, now we're BOTH supposed to be executed tomorrow...great thinking...and now would be a good time for your special 'moments' in time where you get a perfect idea how to get out."

Jakotsu sat against the cement wall that separated the two. He thought for a moment, and then everything went silent. Bankotsu heard nothing else except for the occasional sound of concrete being hit over and over again. "Jakotsu...you alright?"

There were two more hits of his head against the wall, until Jakotsu replied. "I'm just thinkin'..." Suddenly he stopped in the middle of his words and got an idea. "I have an idea!"

"Spill." Bankotsu said, bracing himself against the wall, trying to hear as best he could. Jakotsu began his great plan.

"Okay, so we get out of the jail cells, steal a small dinghy and paddle our way back to the ship." Bankotsu shook his head, knowing the idea would be very stupid.

"And how the bloody hell do you suppose we get out of the cells?"

Bankotsu had a very good point...and he started to hear more banging sounds where Jakotsu banged his head on the concrete wall. "I GOT IT!" he suddenly screamed at the top of his lungs, "We bust out of the cells, steal a small dinghy, go to Tortuga, get a drink or two, and then go back to the ship. It's brilliant."

Bankotsu banged his head against the concrete wall. "You're a complete idiot."

"HEY! At least I didn't get dumped by four gals in the same night!"

"I was drunk!" Bankotsu knew that excuse wouldn't work...even though the other pirate was stupid at some times, he definitely knew when someone was lying or not. Jakotsu snickered and then started to laugh.

"Re-hee-hee-hee-ally," He began, and Bankotsu knew that Jakotsu figured him out. "Love,...Bankotsu..., Captain! I was drunk too, mate. An' besides, you never get drunk...cause you're always the one who drags me out."

"I drag you out before you hit on a woman."

"Oh! Like that time I woke up to yer wench? Now that was terrible...I had nightmares for more than three years!"

"Jakotsu...that happened only two months ago."

"Oh, yeah...an' that was right before you got screwed up in this whole bloody mess."

"We're getting random. Back to the plan."

"Oh! The plan! Wait a minute! I got a great one!" And Jakotsu began another plan that he thought of off the top of his head. "Okay, we use our spoons to improvise them as keys...we throw them out the window...the guard goes away. We burst out of the cells, grab our babies, sneak on a dinghy, paddle out, and meet the guys."

Bankotsu nodded. "That actually might work...but, our 'babies'?"

Jakotsu sighed deeply and pointed his hand out of the cell and to their weapons. "Our 'babies'...my sword, your sword an' pistol?" He sounded like it was completely obvious.


A few hours later...around 10 p.m.

"Hey, Bankotsu ...why are we still sitting here?"

"..."

"You awake?"

"No."

"Oh...are you hungry?"

"Shut up."

There was silence for about two minutes after that until a bang brought the two to their senses. Bankotsu moved from his comfortable 'bed' and looked out the cell, with Jakotsu following his actions. They looked to their left and found a young woman walking down the stairs to their cells. Jakotsu rolled his eyes and jumped away from the cell bars. "A wench..." he muttered, pulling hisbandana over his eyes.

Bankotsu shook his head, gently chuckling. The woman slowly walked towards Bankotsu, and revealed in her right hand: keys. Bankotsu's eyes grew wide and stared at the woman with dark hair. She smiled at him.

"What are you doin' ?" Bankotsu asked, as she placed the keys in the lock, unlocking the cell door. She sighed deeply and then lifted her head, showing her features. A scar ran from her eye down to her ear where her bangs grew into hair that covered over her ears. Her chocolate colored eyes stood out easily with her raspberry eye shadow.

"I'm setting you free." She answered harshly. Bankotsu was taken back by her attitude.

"Just one question...who are you? And why are you setting me free?"

"Sango." She answered, letting go of the keys to pull up the sleeve of her right arm, revealing a faint blue tattoo on her forearm. Bankotsu stared at it for a while before making eye contact.

"You're...a pirate?"

Jakotsu lifted hisbandana and then peeked out the cell to see Sango. He sneered at her and crossed his arms over his chest. "Pirate wench..." he muttered under his breath. "Tryin' to steal my Bankotsu..."

Sango released the key and opened the cell, letting Bankotsu out. "Thanks." He said to her, earning a cold glance from his companion. "Oh, sorry about me friend, he doesn't like filth."

Sango gently laughed and started to unlock the other cell. "I know...just by the way he glares at me..."

Jakotsu stared at her for a minute and stubbornly turned to face the other way, crossing his arms over his chest. "I'd rather be hung than saved by a wench."

Sango straightened up and brushed off the dirt of her pants. "Alright then, let's go." She took the keys out of the lock, walking away with Bankotsu following her, grabbing his weapons, leaving Jakotsu in the cell. The other pirate then looked around and realized he was alone.

"O-on second thought...BANKOTSU, GET YOUR BLOODY ARSE IN HERE!"


"So, you saved us because you want something in return?" Bankotsu asked Sango as he and Jakotsu followed her around the port. Sango stopped and nodded, not facing the other pirate.

"Aye. I need a lift back to Tortuga."

Jakotsu raised his hand for a chance to speak. "Why do you need a lift to there?"

"My husband told me to leave here...so my chance of survival were well."

Bankotsu spoke up too. "May I ask who your husband is?"

Sango nodded and sighed. "Miroku...he works for the commodore."

"Is he cute?"

Both Sango and Bankotsu stared at Jakotsu who just shrugged. "I want to know." he said very innocently, shrugging again. Sango rolled her eyes and sighed as she nodded, then continued to sneak away with the two pirates following her.

She paused when she spotted a canoe. "Look!" she said, pointing to the dinghy. Jakotsu stared at it while Bankotsu was amazed. "We can steal it!" She said excitedly. Bankotsu was still amazed while Jakotsu looked out of his mind with boredom.

"Commandeer ye wench."

Bankotsu glared at his pirate friend and then shook his head. Sango snuck out of the shadows of the pier and to the small dinghy. "Come on!" She whispered, motioning for them to follow as she also grabbed a paddle. Bankotsu looked to Jakotsu and shrugged, walking towards Sango to help her.

Jakotsu rolled his eyes and looked up to the sky. "Why me?"


well, thats the end of the first chapter...I wonder how I did...seemed a bit rushed, eh? oh well...well, please tell me how I did!

R&R!
