Chapter 5

Lovina couldn't take it much longer. Antonio was always making sure she was okay. She slipped off the deck when he wasn't looking but immediately ran into one of his men. He had shaggy brown hair, olive green eyes, and tanned skin. A man was following not that far behind. The other man had short brown hair, amber eyes, and tan skin.

"Sorry, I didn't see you there," She apologized and was about to leave when someone grabbed her arm. She expected Antonio but instead saw Rei.

"Hey, I was looking all over for you, Antonio was about to have a heart attack," The brunette then noticed the two men. Her face lit up and she grinned at them.

"Heracles, Sadiq, I guess you've met Lovina," She gestured to the other brunette but they shook their heads.

"She never officially introduced herself, she just bumped into the lazy one," Sadiq jerked his thumb to Heracles, who glared at him.

"It's not my fault you kept me up all night, you snore like a bear and nothing can get you up," The smaller man growled, poking the other hard in the chest. Sadiq grinned and said smugly,

"Then my work is done." This earned him a kick to the shin. They both grumbled the entire way up the stairs. Rei shook her head at them but noticed Lovina's questioning look.

"You ok?" Rei asked her face turning into one of concern.

"How do you know everybody all ready?" The Italian girl questioned, still in shock that her friend knew almost everyone already.

"Ludwig introduced me to some people yesterday, it was rather fun," Rei explained and smiled before the pair went back up to the deck. Antonio came down to greet them but something shook the boat. The Spaniard fell onto Lovina, who blushed heavily as she gazed up at him.

"Captain, the Desert Rose is here," Ludwig and Kiku came rushing over to him. Another blonde man was following them, his blue eyes wide.

"Alright, Francis take the girls below decks please," The blonde came forward and nodded.

"Yes sir, come on," He motioned to them and Rei stepped back.

"Where's Mariana and Feliciana?" The brunette demanded and saw the girls were by the railing. She ran over to them and helped them back up. They followed Francis down the steps.

"Are fights all that happen here?" The Brazilian questioned, rushing to keep up with the man.

"Well we are pirates, mon cher," The man smirked and she stuck her tongue out at him.

"Not funny Franny!" She snapped and the man frowned. He led them back to their quarters and locked the door. He gave a nod before vanishing.

"I'm getting tired of this; you think Antonio will let us learn to fight?" Mariana questioned, looking at the others.

"Please, he probably thinks we're too delicate, idiotic bastard," Lovina sighed, cupping her cheek.

"They all worry too much about us," Feliciana agreed, sitting on her bed.

"Well, we'll just have to change that, won't we?" Rei smirked, before going over to the door. She studied it for a minute before walking to the other side of the wall. With a yell, she ran and kicked the door open.

"Oh yeah, uh huh, I rule!" She did a little victory dance before looking at the others.

"Come on, we have to go before—" She was cut off as she was tackled to the ground. The girls scrambled over to the door to see what happened. Rei had just finished knocking the man unconscious. She took his sword with a big grin.

"Now, let's fight!" The brunette yelled and ran to the upper decks. Rain had started to fall and immediately soaked them to the bone. The crew was fighting viciously against their enemies. They quickly spotted their counterparts and rushed forward. The other three picked up any spare swords along the way. Feliciana blocked an attack coming from J.C.'s side. He blinked in shock at the sight of her but had little time to fully comprehend. Antonio glared darkly but Lovina stabbed a man that was in his blind side.

"You can thank me later," She ran off and he turned back to the other men. Kiku was fighting men twice his size and was holding up fairly well. Suddenly, someone jumped behind one of the men and ran him through. Mariana kicked the body away from her and smiled at the Japanese man before running off. His shock was short lived as he had to move out of the way of an attack. Ludwig had just kicked someone away when another man just came. A dark blur landed on the man's back and slit his throat. They jumped off as he landed with a thud on the deck. The floor splattered with the crimson liquid.

"Rei? What the hell are you doing here!" He yelled at the Brazilian and she flinched.

"Uh, help—" She was cut off and her eyes widened. Ludwig didn't know why until he looked down. His heart sank into his stomach and he caught her as she fell. A sword had sliced her side and blood was pouring freely from the wound. He ripped off part of his shirt and pressed it tightly against the wound. The man smirked evilly before a sword went through his chest. It was the last of the other crew and so the Desert Rose floated helplessly in the water. The gigantic waves unrelenting as it smashed into the deserted boat. J.C. kicked the man away and knelt next to the German and his sister. The girls rushed over to them as well. The girls tan features had started to turn ashen and she smiled weakly.

"Rei!" Mariana cried, tears flowing from her face as she took her cousin's hand.

"Stop crying, I'll be fine," She laughed only to break into a coughing fit.

"Get Arthur," J.C. told Feliciana and she stumbled to her feet to go find the blonde in question. Moments later, the Brit and Alfred rushed over. The Briton knelt by the brunette's side and placed his hands on the cut. A green glow erupted from his hands and the wound slowly mended itself. Lovina gasped but didn't comment. Rei's eyes fluttered shut but her skin was starting to regain color.

"What happens now?" Mariana questioned.

"Now we wait," Arthur replied.
