Chapter 11: Dancing in blood
**Kid's POV**
I went to the galley to eat something, I was starving. Upon entering a crew member called me
˝Master Kid˝
˝What!?˝
I saw Shiva leaving Killer on a corner table. So they were talking?
˝You said that we shouldn't, but..˝
˝Say it already˝ - I was hungry and didn't want to be pestered.
˝We were talking about Chimera bone smiths and Shiva heard us and...˝ - my eye twitched.
˝Are you saying you disobeyed my orders?˝ - I said in a low voice. Shiva looked up to us.
˝Y-y-y-es...˝ - he stuttered.
I took my gun from my and shot him. ˝Who else?˝ - bodies started to move away from the bleeding corpse. Only one remained ˝Master Kid! Please spare me! I didn-˝ - he begged but I shot him in the chest and he fell.
Silence fell in the galley
˝I AM THE CAPTAIN! Whoever disobeys me will be killed by my hand. IS THAT CLEAR?!˝ - I barked at the crew and various nods were seen ˝Good NOW SCRAM! DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!˝ - I shouted and the galley emptied in seconds. Good. I'm starving.
I saw Shiva watching me with an unredable face. She never saw me fight or punish anyone, did she?
**Shiva's POV**
˝You know he isn't sunshine˝
Killer's voice repeated itself in my head. Yes he isn't. He's the pirate captain. Eustass Kid. Supernova.
I did fuck and kiss him, but that didn't change the fact who he was. He had a sadistic grin while he shot the guys and an aura of power swirled around him showing his dominance.
He was the boss here.
Funny how he didn't scare me. Maybe I haven't seen the worst ( or best?) yet? This was a punishment.
I had to wonder, was it because it was me or because an order was disobeyed? I hoped the later.
I started to walk and he stopped me before I exited.
˝Yes captain?˝ - I asked in a neutral voice. His scowled but let me pass. ˝I have orders I need to finish in the smithy˝ - I added and exited.
Work. It will take my mind of things.
Him.
**Killer's POV**
Fascinating.
She didn't even flinch when he fired, either she was too shocked or used to things like that.
Shiva The Destroyer...
Before we found her, dying, she made her name well known. The sadistic beauty. The monster woman. Destroyer of life. The newspapers were filled with articles like that.
I underestimated her badly. She could be more dangerous than Kid..
Someone sat next to me and knocked me out of my thoughts.
**Kid's POV**
The fucker was sulking. That much even I could tell.
˝Who crapped in your food?˝ - I asked stuffing some meat.
He sighed ˝Your girl˝ - I almost choke on a potato. The FUCK?!
˝How did you call her?˝ - I growled.
He snickered ˝Your girl, apparently she doesn't like to be bossed around like some I know and she defended you even though she didn't see you in your true state˝ - he finished. That little bastard.
˝And what is my true state Killer? You got a death wish or is it...˝ - I stopped eating ˝Are you having feelings for her?!˝ - my eyes widened.
˝NO!˝ - A to fast answer, and a shaken voice. That fucking liar.
˝Killer, you are my first mate and best friend, but if you get between me and Shiva I will..˝
˝What will you do? Stop all of this? OUR journey?˝ - he said raising his hands.
I growled ˝NO! But .mine. Get it in your thick tin head.˝
I stuffed everything in my mouth grabbed a bottle of sake and stormed out.
Fucking liar. He fell for MY WOMAN.
I need alcohol or a good fight or both.
˝Master Kid a Marine ship is approaching!˝ - Heat shouted to me. Seems my luck is getting better today. I snickered and barked ˝Prepare for fight. Kill them all and take valuables˝
I need this..
**Shiva's POV**
Urgh I can't concentrate! This is getting ridiculous.
˝Prepare for fight. Kill them all and take valuables˝ - I heard Kid's voice. A fight? Why not. I grinned and pulled out my Axe. I missed fighting. Pagoeja shone like a bloody moon back at me.
(a/n: Pagoeja, korean for „destroyer")
I smiled and rushed outside where the battle already began. Marines were flying all over deck and I knew why it was bathed in blood the first time I saw it.
I saw Killer slashing away Marines like they were made out of butter. He enjoyed it apparently.
A maniac laugh got my attention. A steel hand, made of various steel crap and weapons, was attached to Kid. He was laughing at all the bloodshed he was causing.
Insane. Wicked. Deranged.
He fit them all.
Out of the corner of my eyes I saw Marines approaching. I want some fun too!
I closed my eyes and took deep breaths. A fang here, red eyes there and my blood was buzzing. Singing to me.
I smirked and swung my axe. The air exploded where my blade sliced. I was jumping down deck, running and whirling. All around me bodies fell down. I was messy but only because I enjoyed it that way.
The bodies were cleanly cut on multiple places letting blood escape. Ears, eyes, limbs, head, you name it.
I was feeling ecstatic, the rush of battle in my veins. I grinned and lifted my eyes to find Kid staring at me amused.
**Kid's POV**
I stopped my attack to hear a cracking noise or better small explosions. Our cannons didn't fire. Then I saw a yellow whirl go beside me leaving corpses behind it.
It changed, it was red now. A red whirl and that same sound.
It stopped. Shiva was grinning like a madwoman, her hair soaked in blood and dripping off its ends, her mouth and cheeks were smeared with blood.
Then her eyes lifted to mine.
GOOD? BAD? MEH?
