A/N: All right, I'm sitting here, grounded from going out, so I decided to write. I decided to update this story because I wrote the last chapter last night, so it is fresh in my head. Lucky for all you readers that read this story and aren't into my other one. But, I will probably update some more. I have to be home all day tomorrow since it is Father's Day, which equals plenty of writing time. I don't mind though. Well, anyways, I am done babbling so on with whatever else I have to say.
Thank you for your reviews. I luv them and they made me actually want to update this chapter-go you!
Pink Neon- Glad you like this story. Is this update soon enough? J/K. Anyways, thanks for reading and reviewing.
Not A Monkey- Glad you like the story and where it is going. But honestly, I'm not really sure where it is going. I was planning on it being like a 10 chapter story, but now I'm not so sure. I didn't plan for a lot of the stuff in the story to be there, it just kind of popped in. All well, I got some ideas so I will go with them.
Bewitching Witch- Creative name, I like it. Anyways, thanks for the double reviews and glad you like the story. Like I said before, I wanted to try and write something that hasn't really been done before. Thanks for reading and reviewing.
Bella- Glad you like the story, and like I have been telling everyone else that points out it is different. I wanted to write something different, so I am glad you appreciate it. I was kind of hesitant doing something new, but hey, it seems to work. Thanks for reading my story as well as reviewing.
Hotaru420- Thanks for reading my story and the compliments you gave. It makes me feel all tingly-j/k, but it does make me feel good. As for making this story raunchy, um, what do you mean by that. Like I know what raunchy is, I'm not that out of it, but like what, damn this isn't working, let me try wording it again. What do you mean by making it raunchy? That way I can try and avoid it. Because I have read stuff like that and I totally agree, but my opinion might be different than yours, so if you could clarify, that would be great-really helpful. Anyways, thanks for reading and reviewing, as well as giving your opinion.
Thank you all for the reviews, I luv them. And for the readers out there that don't review (I know you're there, I was one of those people before I created a name and joined and reviewed) keep reading and if you feel up to it, leave a message like update soon or something simple. It really does motivate me.
Well anyways, on with the chapter. Enjoy!

CHAPTER 5
"Why'd you do it?!" demanded Draco.
Morgan stared at him. She knew what he was talking about, but decided to push it. She was still angry about being woken up so early today, even if it was now an hour to dinner.
"Do what?" she asked as innocently as possible.
"Don't play games. I'm not in the mood for them!"
"I can tell."
"So spit it out. Why did you tell me I was needed on the deck when I wasn't?"
"You needed to leave the room."
"Excuse me?!"
"You needed to leave. You were pissing her off. You weren't going to get anything out of her. Besides, I had a better chance at getting information out her then, than you would. She was ready to talk as soon as you left!"
"So, why did you say I was needed on deck, you could've just said go away."
"No I couldn't of. Like that wouldn't have given everything away!" In a mock voice she continued.
"Excuse me, Captain. Um, I was wondering if you could leave the room so I can try to wring Hermione for more information of her family."
Draco just glared at her. 'Note to self, need to stop glaring. Don't need to let anyone know you're pissed off,' he thought to himself.
In her regular voice, she continued.
"Look, Draco, it was the only way I could get you out of the room, since you were being daft and not catching any of my hints."
"Fine. But next time think of an excuse that doesn't involve something like that."
"Okay."
Draco got up and paced around the room. Morgan knew what he wanted to ask, but decided to mess with him more by not giving it up easily. She knew he would try to work his way into the question because he wouldn't want to send her temper off. She just smiled to herself.
"Okay, this is getting me no where. You know what I want to know, so just spit out what you know."
"You want to know if I got anymore information out of her?"
"Of course. What else would I want to know!"
"I don't know. Just checking you know. Making sure we are on the same page and all."
"Since we are both on the same page, as you put it, please inform me of any information that could be useful!"
Morgan could tell he was losing his temper. She realized that once he got his information his temper would be out and about, so she decided to just get it over with.
"I got information. Especially about her family. But, I'll telling you now, a ransom is not going to work."
"What, why not?!" demanded Draco angrily.
'Well, there goes his temper,' thought Morgan.
"I can't tell you," she answered.
"Yes you can. Just open your mouth and say words to tell me why it won't work!"
"I promised her I wouldn't."
"You're getting all noble on me?! I can't believe it. Why! Just give me the damn information. Perhaps I can exploit it for something else since a ransom is out of the question."
"No you won't!"
"And what makes you so sure?"
"You'll never get the information out of me, and I can guarantee you, you won't get it from Hermione. She's more stubborn than you are."
"I highly doubt that. But this isn't about me, even if I wanted it to be. This is about why you can't give me the information I demand. I am your Captain. You are to follow my orders!"
"Well you never ordered me!"
"Fine! I order you to tell me everything in the conversation you had with Miss Granger right after I left. I want to know everything involving her family and why I can't ransom her off!"
"No!"
"What did you say?!"
"I said NO. Would you like me to spell it for you."
"That isn't necessary. Besides, I didn't know you could spell, you've never been to school. But once again, we are getting off topic. I demand you tell me!"
"I can't."
"And why not?"
"I promised her I wouldn't!"
"I still don't see a problem."
"I gave her my word that I wouldn't tell a soul, and even those that lack a soul."
"I am still not understanding how this is keeping you from telling me."
"I may be a Slytherin, but I am still loyal to those I deem worthy of it. All Slytherins are, you know that."
"What are you trying to say?!"
"You of all people should know that. You are loyal to the most ruthless Slytherin out there! He isn't even a pureblooded pirate and yet, you still follow him blindly!"
Draco didn't need her to elaborate on what she was talking about. As much as he would like the set the record straight, he knew he couldn't.
"That is business you have no part in, missy."
Morgan just glared at him.
"I take from your silence you aren't going to tell me anything." When silence was all that greeted him, he decided to continue. "You know disobeying an order on this ship is punishable by death."
Morgan just glared even more. She had never been in this situation and wasn't sure if Draco was joking or not. She knew he could kill without a second thought, no matter who the person was, but she was wondering if he would be able to kill her. They grew up together and he was like a second older brother to her, although she wasn't sure if he felt she was his little sister. It didn't matter, she didn't think he had a problem with killing family.
"But, I know Blaise wouldn't agree with that. So instead, you are not to visit the hostage and are confined to your quarters until I allow you to come out. Have a nice day." Draco then walked out of Morgan's quarters and towards Blaise's. He needed to talk to him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What do you think is happening to Hermione?" asked Ron. He, Harry, Ginny, Dean, and Seamus were all sitting in Harry's sitting room just thinking and talking about Hermione.
"I'm not sure," answered Harry.
"Probably something really bad," said Seamus.
"What makes you think that," asked Harry.
"Well, haven't you heard the stories?"
"No, actually I haven't," answered Harry.
"Slytherins are ruthless. They use everything they can to gain power and wealth. Hermione could be a major tool. If the cargo she was carrying was any clue as to the power and wealth she has, then I'm sure Malfoy is using her to his advantage," stated Seamus.
"He won't get much," replied Ginny.
All four boys looked at her.
"Look, Hermione is one of the most stubborn people I know. She won't talk or do anything she doesn't want to unless she absolutely has too. Besides you know he can't get much, especially if he tries a ransom," she finished.
"Why not?" asked Dean.
"Her family," answered Harry.
The five sat in silence thinking about Hermione's family. They knew all about what had happened.
"What do you think will happen if Malfoy ever finds out about that?" asked Dean.
"You mean when," corrected Seamus.
"He meant if," stated Ron.
"No, when. Malfoy is a sneaky bastard, I'm sure he'll find the information out somehow," stated Seamus.
Both Harry and Ginny nodded their agreement with Seamus. They knew Hermione was stubborn, but if Draco really tried, they felt he could probably worm the information out of her.
"Fine, when Malfoy finds out that juicy piece of information, what do you think will happen?" asked Dean.
"He'll use it for everything he can," answered Harry.
"But wouldn't that be a little bit useful?" questioned Dean. At Ron's angry look, he decided to continue. "I mean, like she would know some information that could be useful."
"Doesn't matter," said Harry. "They'll probably kill her when they are done."
The five sailors then sat in quiet until it was time for bed, all skipping dinner. They didn't have much of an appetite.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You were quiet during dinner, why?" questioned Blaise. He and Malfoy were sitting on the Bridge watching the crew work and prepare the ship for night sail.
"I'm always quiet during dinner," responded Draco.
"More so than usual."
"Stuff on the mind."
"Obviously. Care to elaborate?"
"Your sister."
"Excuse me! What about my sister?!"
"I wasn't think of her like that." There was a short pause before Draco spoke again. "She withheld information from me today."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah."
"What kind of information."
"Information about our happy hostage. You know the one that has been a pain in my ass ever since you brought her onboard."
"Look if was a good idea at the time. Wait, what kind of information could she withhold?"
"I wanted information on Miss Granger's family, you know to ransom her off. Turns out ransoming her off would be pointless."
"Why?"
"Well, that's the question of the day. And your sister seems to think it funny to not tell me."
"I'm sure she has her reasons."
"Doesn't matter. She disobeyed an order."
"You're not going to kill her are you? I understand the rules of the Slytherin and all, but you know, she is my sister."
"Not gonna kill her. She's just confined to her quarters till I feel like letting her out."
"Fair enough. She should be thankful."
"Not sure. She wasn't exactly thanking me."
"Understandable," answered Blaise with a smile. He was just picturing Draco punishing Morgan.
'Bet it was funny, to bad I wasn't there. All well, maybe it's better that way. Both of them are annoying and stubborn in situations like this,' thought Blaise.
"Anyways, I need you to worm the information out of her or Hermione."
"I don't think either one is possible for me. Morgan knows I'll be coming and she will keep her mouth shut. As for Hermione, I had a wonderful experience with one of her vases today. Didn't know a girl could throw a vase so hard."
"She hit you with a vase. Didn't ducking occur to you?"
"She did it when I wasn't looking. She's not stupid and she doesn't like me. Getting her to talk to me will be harder than getting Morgan to talk to me."
"Argh. Fine, I got another plan, you just can't get angry with any of my motives. I was hoping I wouldn't have to resort to this, but winners can't be choosers."
Blaise looked at him, not quite sure if he liked where this was going.
"Fine. I trusted you before and everything went okay, so I'll trust you now. But if anything happens to my sister, I will fight back," answered Blaise.
"Wouldn't doubt it," answered Draco seriously. The Zambini's were different from other Slytherin families. They always protected their family. His own didn't care what happened to him.
"Now, do you care to inform me of this plan?"
"Fine, besides I will need your help."
Blaise's eyebrow rose. Draco's plans were normally well organized, successful, and fun. So at Balise's nod, Draco started to explain the plan to Blaise.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
END OF CHAPTER 5
I know, I know, a little short, but Chapter 6 should be up soon. Also, I gave some clues as to what is going on, but I didn't want to give it all away. Anyways, I got a storyline that I plan to follow for this story, I was having trouble around Chapter 3, so chapters should be easier to write, and come more frequent, than every two weeks. Yeah, go me.
Also, if you got any requests for certain things included, like someone walking the blank, more insulting Pansy, more Dario, more Gryffindor-ness (although more will come once they reach Grimwald Place), just send it to me through a review or something. There are gaps in my plan for the story, so I can fill the gaps up with your requests. Sound good? I thought so, so let me know if anything tickles your fancy.
Anyways, along with requests for certain scenes or whatever, I am still up for opinions on other ships that you guys might want. I haven't figured out who to pair up with who, so your opinions are greatly appreciated. Everything besides Draco/Hermione is open. I thought of doing a Blaise/Ginny ship, but I'm not so sure. Oh and there will be interaction between the Gryffindor and the Slytherin in later chapters, just not now.
Well, that's it for now, let me know what you think. I luv all comments, just make flames nice, please.
Also, if you get a chance check out my other stories. If you're grounded (like me), stuck at home for father's Day (like me), or just bored (like me), they should take up some time and save you from boredom.
So, um, review, review, and um review some more.
