Edwards POV
Emmett my first mate came into my quarters. He was my best friend and was highly respected in the world of pirates. He closed the door behind him and as the click sounded through the room I looked up from my charts.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Jasper has seen a ship. It looks kinda rich. It has the royal flag. I think it's called… ummm… oh the Midnight Sun. Have you heard of it?"
I gaped at him awe struck. He couldn't mean THE Midnight Sun? The ship that was home to the beautiful Princess Isabella the Angel of the sea. I shook out of my daze.
"How far away is it?"
"Umm, well it's not moving so right outside." He mumbled.
"WHAT!!!"
How could that be? I looked out of the cabin window and was shocked to see a beautiful ship infront of me. I stumbled to my feet and ran for the deck. The crew gathered around me worried about my strange behaviour. Emmett close behind me.
"This gentleman is the ship that has never been pillaged. It belongs to the royal Princess Isabella.
Now they were standing gaping. Just as I had done. The deck was empty but for a hidden figure behind the mast. There on the floor a body.
"We will board and take away that title. Do not kill them but threaten them. Bring the princess on deck we can use her as a bargaining tool. Then we shall take all the valuables and burn it and take the Princess with us."
They all nodded at my orders and started to board. I joined them.
Bella POV
I turned at the sound of thumping as masses of feet shook the deck. They were boarding. I got ready with my sword but I knew it was useless. One against an entire crew. But I had to defend us. They seemed to break off into two groups. One went below and the rest surrounded me. Sword at the ready I stared at them anticipating their next move. Thank goodness I could fight.
