Maki shot firework, bomb bullets at the castle, getting right into the room in front of the room we were behind.

"Hm? What was that? Can I ask what the enemy is?" I eavesdrop and listen to the conversation.

"It's a girl with red hair who's firing firework molluscs at us!" Another pirate shouts, "10 pirates come with me to eliminate her!"

I quickly muttered a great job and Umi and I whipped out the other two bazookas and exploded down the wall, a huge surprise to the remaining pirates. "I'm here to bring back my best friend!" I exclaim and fire another bullet at the leader. I run up to them, throw gasoline on them and nod to Umi. "And you will pay for what you did to her."

"Hahaha... Acting so brave, little mermaid! Or are you a mermaid? Is your best friend even a mermaid! Anyways, we're not going down without a fight," The leader replies as they unsheathes their blades. And suddenly, Umi fires a fire bullet which caused them to burn, and burn, and burn. I quickly rip off Nozomi's cuffs with my katana and throw her out of the inflamed room.

"If we burn, you burn with us!" A pirate shouts as he grabbed my leg and pulls me over. I'm only sprawled on the floor, letting fate decide my future. Umi and Nozomi are out of my sight… Where are they? Could Umi already escaped with Nozomi? The pirate slowly drags me in, my leg almost coming out of the socket... This is the end of me… It doesn't matter as long as Umi and Maki get Nozomi safely out of this place… Nozomi never noticed my feelings anyways, she won't care that much if I die… I told myself until I looked up and saw… Two hands comes to rescue and I cling onto them for dear life.

"Umi, Nozomi...?" I croak as another figure appears and bazooks the arm that was grabbing me, almost blasting off my leg.

"Nico! I swear I'm never going to let you use my bazooka ever again if you blast off anyone of M's body part! You need to practice your aim!" The most tsundere person I've ever met appears behind a wall in the maze of the pirate castle.

I sigh in relief when I finally jump back to my feet and greeted by half of muse, I wonder why Nico's here though… "Eli! I'm sorry I almost caught your leg there! Nico stares at me apologetically and I nod, forgiving her even though I do question myself why I did that. "Now Maki-chan! Can I pleaaaaase use that bazooka again? I promiiiiiseeee I won't kill anyone!"

"If you're not going to kill someone then there's no point of you using it!"

"Maki-chan's a yandere. She wants to kill these pirates!" Nico exclaims hiding behind the wall Maki materialized from (Not literally).

"Nico-se…Nico… If we don't bring justice to these pirates then what would they do again?" Umi sighs facing the pirate's burn in the inflamed room. "What if they kidnap you next time?"

I just stand there watching the argument when I suddenly notice that Nozomi was clinging onto my arm. I seriously never noticed her and averted my attention back to the pirates.

"Elicchi…" Nozomi muses and internally, I gasp in shock and blush, I probably did that externally too, "I knew that Elicchi would risk her life for me… But maybe that sounds to… himedere or what?"

It's so cute when she talks to herself like that! She always talks to someone but then she ends up talking to herself! But I really can't tell her that so uh…

"Nozomi… It doesn't… Because its reality. I really really would risk my life for you… I would jump into a shark for you… I would do anything for you…" I embrace her back while she leans her head on my shoulder. Oh right… I seriously (I seriously need to stop using seriously) forgot that she was um… Nude… Oh and I forgot to ask her if she lost a woman's most precious thing. VIRGINITY! I'll ask her later…

"Elicchi…" Nozomi unexpectedly pulls my head in close and gently fits her lips to mine. This is seriously (I vow that I seriously won't use seriously again in this chapter) like a dream come true. I couldn't ask her my question but whatever, this is the best sensation I had ever had in my whole entire life. Her lips are so soft… And surprisingly she is amazing at uh… Kissing… Where did she learn that from?!

"Damn it Eli and Nozoboob you assholes! Get a changing room!"***** (*=explanation in A.N)

Whatever… But I should have cared.

Nozomi, I don't know how, but she got turned on. In front of half of muse, she grabbed my hand, not pulling away from the kiss, and crushed it onto her breast. Umi, fainted expectedly and Nico slaps her hand over Maki's eyes and closes her own. Urgh crap… Even I don't want to um… Do this here… Why can't we just go home?! I tried breaking away as hard as I could but Nozomi just kept her hand on my face and sucking my lips. Urgh, as much as I want to, I can't do it here, in pirate territory! I squeezed her nipple but she still didn't back away then I realized the only way was to uh…

I use my fingers, one by one, shoving it in her core until my whole hand is enveloped by some warm, slick substance that almost feels like blood, even though I know it isn't. Oh crap I never knew that was even possible! I pulled my fist out of her and as I expected, she was gasping and moaning.

"Nozomi… Let's get you back into the sea… Um… Umi, Maki, Nico uh… Nothing deep happened… You all can open your eyes… We need to get out of here…" I shouted at my fellow comrades including one of their 'future girlfriend'.

"Are you sure Eli and Nozoboob? I clearly saw a hand up there…" Nico ruins the lie and I quickly cover her mouth. Accidently with the hand I shoved up Nozomi. Oh crap crap crap! "Ewwwwww you're hand's so wet and icky!"

"True… Eli, why is it so uh… Like that?" Maki murmurs then covers her ears, regretting what she asked. Fortunately I wasn't going to answer. Unfortunately, Umi answers it and no one expected that.

"It's because she's been indecent with Nozomi and took it,"

"Ewwwwwwwwwwww!" Maki and Nico shouts synchronized. I can't actually believe that no pirate's come and take us all! We've probably been standing around for ten minutes or more outside a burning room with… lots of piles of ashes… I really think we should get going…

"Hehe…" Nozomi giggles and just as I was about to speak, Nozomi says it for me- "Um… The magnetic gay couple over there and Umi… I think we need to get out of here…" –in a different way...

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING GAY? YOU'RE THE GAY ONE HERE!" Nico&Maki screams back at Nozomi as the three of us, excluding Nico&Maki, start to retrace our steps. Soon Maki realises that we're ditching them and she starts to catch up to us. Sadly, Nico's still there, fuming.

"Nozomi! You're so gay! Even right now you're trying to seduce Eli by being naked!"

"Nico-chan! You baka idiot! We're leaving you!" Maki shouts while we turn corners to the long passage.

"Damn it you guys!" Nico screams and chases us before we completely disappear from her sight. I've never seen someone as dumb as her…

Ah… Finally out of that damn castle and onto the cliff. I look around the gorgeous view to see a miniature cup with red stuff in it. Hehe, Maki's been having tomato tea while she was waiting!

"Elicchi… I don't think I can get back into the sea…" Nozomi murmurs and clings onto my arm tightly. "I can't return back home and I don't want to cause you trouble… But I can't go back. I'd rather die than not being able to be with you guys…"

"NOZOMI! No… No… We came all this way to save you… We're not ditching you here! This isn't happening. I… love you and I can't let you!" I scream at her (Nico thinking its lovers talk again) and embrace her tightly. I'm not letting you go Nozomi. No matter what happens. "If you die, then I have no reason to live."

A.N: I decided to add another chapter because i feel like it! XD well yeah... Chapter 6 is on hold!

Changing room: it's a joke. Nico says get a room cos those two are kissing in public/ in front of her so she tells them to get a room. Perfectly understandable right? Now changing room cos uh… Nozomi SERIOUSLY needs clothes and changing rooms r filled with clothes… If u knew this then just ignore this whole block of text XD!
