The one thing he's Scared of 7

"Basco-san…" Ahim giggled innocently as he set her down on the counter.

"No, no, it's true," he smirked, "he never knew what hit him."

"You are very brave," she patted his hands, "and very naughty."

"Yeah…" he slurred a little, the drunkness still wearing off on him, "well, you've been a very nice prisinor."

"And you are nice a very captator," she nodded, "you…do not seem as bad I first had thought. It is just…you really hurt Marvelous-san."

"I know, I know," he shrugged a little, "but two dreams can't collide. His dream was mine first, so I get it."

"Demo…" she looked down a little, "Captain Marvelous is a great man as well. If you two were friends…why can't you remain them?"

"Because what I've done is not easily forgiven," he shook his head, "now, get in a cell. I need to make it look like you were tortured."

"…yes Basco-san," she obeyed reluctantly, a real tear splattering to her cheek.

XXXXXXX

"Basco…" Marvelous' voice was sluggish with his hangover, "…you…better..be here…by noon." He stumbled a little.

"Sounds nice," he chuckled, "see you soon, Marvey-chan."

"Uh…" the Pirate Captain knocked his head to the post in the center of the main room, "I hate him…"

XXXXXXX

"Ah…." Basco smirked as he tied up her hands, "sounds like you'll be going home."

"Demo…" she whispered weakly, "it is his dream…"

"And it's mine," he picked her up and sat her on the counter, "look, Ahim. It's either him or me. It's not really fair for you not to have a choice. It's him or me."

"Um…" she looked down, feeling so torn.

Marvelous and her…they just seemed to have a connection. But Basco…he wasn't really evil. He was actually…nice and funny. So what should she do? It could only be one. They were torn by the greatest treasure in the universe…and her.
