Chapter 3; The Pirates

The moon shone brightly above their heads, fenced with little diamond-shaped stars. The soft zephyr was if anything refreshing. They sat around in a circle on the deck. Hyoutei Sailor sailed gracefully on the black sea, as if she was a ballerina or something. Hiyoshi was doing his job as the Entertainer, playing an old zither he bought from their last stop. The notes were weird and everybody swore they heard Hiyoshi humming gekokujou but it sounds just nice enough to get them through the night.

Shishido came down from the observation deck, joining the others. Kabaji just sat there, cleaning his illuminating sword and observing the scenery while Captain Jirou was making a new TeniMap using his saliva. Lord Oshitari was playing…hide and seek (?) with the now-a-monkey Prince Gakuto not because he wants to but because Prince Gakuto had stole his glasses which Lord Oshitari doesn't need at all honestly. And Prince Atobe" let just say he was enjoying a sip of Earl Gray while dreaming about Princess Yukimura.

'I heard that the éclat pirated are on voyage,' said Shishido. Prince Atobe turned around to face him.

'Are you sure about it, ahhh?'

'I was in the armory shop yesterday when a stoic samurai came in. the shopkeeper asked him what happened for he looks like he just fell out of a tiger's cage so he told the shopkeeper that his battleship was ambushed by the éclat pirates,'

'…eh? So let's just hope we won't bump into them,' said captain Jirou like the news was nothing.

'Captain Jirou! Captain Jirou!' screamed Shishido from the observation deck.

'There's a pirate ship ahead! 48 degree north-west!' he called.

Captain Jirou took his monoscope. Indeed, there was a ship heading their way, slicing the sea. On the apex of the sail was a black flag with white skull painted on it, spelling danger.

(Meanwhile at the Pirate Ship…)

'BURNING!!!' yelled Captain Takashi.

'Aye, Captain Takashi! I have ebullient news for you!' said Oishi.

'He said he got some news…I wonder what news would it be, bad or good? But then, he said it some kind of high-spirited tone so I guess it must be good news, no? But what if it was not? Looks can be very deceiving nowadays and considering the look…' That sentence came from Captain Takashi's parrot; Shinji.

'WHAT IS IT BABY?!!! BURNING!!!!'

Oishi step forward and took the sushi knife out of Captain Takashi's grasp, sighing.

'There's a rich looking ship in our way! Do you think we should vanquish her?'

'Ano…I don't know, Oishi, should we?'

Oishi hands Captain Takashi back his knife.

'ALRIGHT BABY!!! LET'S GO CONQUER A NEW LOVE!!!'

'Che, he is always like that, no? The captain. All he does is cooking…what's so good about cooking anyways? It's not like he'll be on Iron Chef or Hell's Kitchen or something…why is he the Captain anyways? He even cooks for his peers, isn't that weird? I never knew a captain…'

All right, enough, Ibu Shinji…I'm going to cut your babbling now…

'Minna! Get prepared! I have a bad feeling about this,' edict Captain Jirou.

'Lord Oshitari, take Prince Gakuto to somewhere safe!' said Hiyoshi.

'Prince Gakuto! Come back here!' yelled Lord Oshitari.

Prince Gakuto leapt around the spar and sails. Strong wind blew their hair. Shishido set the canons ready. Kabaji took out his newly-polished illuminating sword out. Prince Atobe, as calm as usual was predicting the possibilities and all that.

'Why didn't ore-sama bring that Royal Advisor, Inui along?' he said in a sotto voce.

The two ships were nearing. Moments later, Shishido fired the first canon and it hit the pirates' mast.

'Nice shot, Shishido! Very unexpected,' said Prince Atobe.

The pirates soon made their way to Hyoutei Sailor. Some of them who were placed on canon aimed at her. Lord Oshitari and Prince Gakuto was nowhere to be seen. Shishido now is firing the second canon at the pirate ship. Hiyoshi uses his musical instrument to fight the pirates off. Prince Atobe was fighting with three pirates now. How can he do that? Well people, HE IS ATOBE, remember?

'Kabaji, now!' yelled Prince Atobe.

Kabaji took out his illuminating swords and held it high. The Hyoutei Sailor' crew closed their eyes shut, for they know what Kabaji was doing. A blinding ray shot from the sword and within seconds, majority of the pirate turned back and marched towards their own ship and fought among themselves.

'Behold the power of my swords,' Kabaji said like as Atobe usually say his 'Ore-sama no bigi ni, yoi na' phrase.

'Where is captain Jirou?' asked Hiyoshi suddenly.

'I believe he's in the pirate ship, trying to save Ootori the Royal Cook,' said Lord Oshitari whom appeared from God knows where, with a scared looking Prince Gakuto on his shoulder.

And now, we should go and check up on Captain Jirou…

'…and then you put on some milk, then add some more flour. Next you…'

'…ZZZzzzzZZZzzzZZZzzzZZZzzz…'

'WAKE UP BABY!!! DON'T SLEEP WHEN I'M FIGHTING YOU!!!'

'Oh, it's my turn already? Wait, yeah, I'm done'

'OH NO, BABY!!! YOU'RE NOT DONE YET!!!'

And Captain Takashi made some more movement on the board…

'ALRIGHT, BABY!!! NOW, YOU'RE DONE!!!'

'…eh? You must tired from this screaming and all…here, now, the game is finish,'

'OH NO, BABY!!! I'M LOST!!!'

2 hours afterwards…

'I really don't know how to thank all of you for rescuing me from the pirate ship…' said Ootori.

'Well, you should thank Captain Jirou. He's the one that defeat the Pirate' Captain,' Hiyoshi said as a matter of factly.

Prince Gakuto made some sounds and somehow, everyone managed to understand it as 'Good, now we have a proper cook. I'm tired of eating Shishido's cooking' which made Shishido's face reddened.

'By the way, Captain Jirou, Ore-sama would like to know how do you exactly defeated that pirate' captain? From what Ore-sama has heard, he never leaves his beloved knife from his hand,'

'He's an easy target. Took me (yawns) 4 minutes to bring him down'

'Sugoi, Captain Jirou…' said Ootori in a tone of amazement.

'…the guy just too dumb to play Battleship against me…'

And after saying that, Captain Jirou fell asleep while everyone was…

'WHAT?!!! BATTLESHIP?!!!'

(A/N; Uhuh, battleship…I don't even know how to play battleship…kills myself now…)
