Author: JeffroMattyHardy

Disclaimer: I own—OMG I own something! I own Alexis Michaels! Yes! Finally! Actually, I always owned her, so I don't think that really count. Darn.

Summary: Jeff Hardy is a Carolinian nobleman living in England. Adam Copeland is the notorious pirate captain, Edge. When Jeff is kidnapped, Adam takes on the role of teaching him to be a pirate. But when Jeff's father wants him back… Jedam, slash, language, alcohol, violence

I am on a writing ROLL lately! xD lol

This mainly focuses on Matt and Alexis this chapter. Sorry 'bout that.

.*.

Alexis watched from the upper deck of the ship as Matt and Jeff came out onto the deck below, looking around for someone to talk to. It had been a day and a half since they'd left London and this was the first time they'd come out of the cabin Adam had given them. "Hey, Copeland," she called, not bothering to look behind her at the captain. "Hardys are up."

"Finally." Adam came up beside her. "I was starting to think they'd never come out of that goddamn cabin." He frowned when he watched. "What the fuck are they doing?"

"Probably looking for you." Alexis leaned over the balcony. "Hey, Hardy and Hardy!" The brothers looked up at her. "Get up here!"

Matt walked up the stairs to the upper deck, Jeff right behind him as he hung onto his brother's shirt. "Finally accepted your place on my ship?" Adam smirked.

"What are we doing here?" Matt growled.

"You're nobles," Adam explained. "That means that you don't know anything about being pirates. And I need a challenge. I've already done it once with Alexis, but I need a better challenge. You two are unwilling. That makes it fun."

"We will never become pirates," Matt said firmly.

Adam laughed. "You'll be singing a different tune soon enough when we dock in…"

"Ducos," Alexis supplied.

"Right, Ducos. Tomorrow." He looked the brothers up and down. "I'll be teaching…Jeff. Alexis, you'll teach Matt."

"Hell no," Alexis immediately said, crossing her arms. "Why can't you teach both of them and leave me out of it?"

Adam pulled Alexis toward him to whisper in her ear. "Come on, love," he pleaded. "I want to focus all my attention on Jeff."

"You just want to fuck him," the blonde shot back.

"Well, yes, and his brother seems a little particular to you. So why don't you teach him to be a pirate like I taught you and try not to kill him."

"I promise nothing."

"Fine with me." Adam looked at Jeff with a grin. "Come with me, Jeff."

Matt stepped protectively in front of his brother. "What are you going to do with him?" he growled lowly.

"Exactly what the lovely Alexis is going to do with you. Teach him to be a pirate."

~.**.~

Adam closed the door of his cabin when Jeff walked in, taking out both his swords. "You gonna speak now?" he asked, holding out one sword. Jeff hesitantly took the weapon, but still didn't say anything. "What will it take for you to speak?" No answer. "Will you talk for a kiss?" Jeff breathed in sharply, something that didn't go unnoticed by the captain of the ship. "Oh, so that's what you want. A kiss, isn't it?" Jeff still didn't speak and Adam grinned. He grabbed the younger's arm and pulled him close, kissing him roughly. Adam's grin stayed on his face when he pulled away, watching the younger struggle to breathe normally again. "You gonna talk now?"

"O…Ok," Jeff finally said, his voice soft.

"Better." Adam smiled and lifted Jeff's chin with the tip of his sword. "You know, you're pretty cute." Jeff blushed. "And you're gonna be even cuter as a pirate." He took his sword away and drug his sword on the ground as he circled. "So, do you know how to use a sword?"

"I…Matty and I took fencing lessons when we were kids," Jeff said softly.

"Well, at least I won't have to teach you from scratch." Adam lunged forward, grinning when Jeff blocked the attack with his sword and spun around to try and get the upper hand. Metal clashed loudly as they fought. Adam finally hit Jeff's sword hard enough that it flew out of his hand and lodged itself in the wall. He held his own up to the younger's neck, nicking his face slightly. "You are a good opponent," Adam panted lightly. He noticed the blood slowly dripping down Jeff's face. "Here, let me get that."

Jeff didn't say anything as Adam set him down on his desk and wiped some of the blood away. He reached into a drawer and pulled out a strip of cloth and a couple pieces of tape, settling them over the cut. "There, good as new," Adam said, giving the bandages a kiss. Jeff blushed darkly, not moving as the older walked back to stand in front of him. "You've got some skills, Hardy, I'll give you that. You've got some skills." Jeff didn't say anything. "Are you serious? You're not talking again?"

"Do you have any paper?"

Adam was taken back with the question. "Um…what?"

"Do you have any paper?" Jeff repeated softly. "And a pencil?"

"Why?"

"I want to draw you."

"Can't believe I have to teach this fucking noble how to be a pirate," Alexis muttered under her breath as Matt followed her to her cabin. "Fucking Copeland can't teach two nobles. No. I have to fucking teach one myself."

"I can hear you, you know," Matt said. "And it's not like this is my dream either. I'd rather be back home then on a filthy ship learning to be a filthy pirate."

Alexis suddenly spun around with her sword drawn and pushed Matt up against the side of the ship, her sword at his neck. "You will not say that pirates are filthy," she said threateningly. "I am not a filthy pirate. I was a noble that chose to be a pirate because the life I lived was the worst thing I've ever experienced."

Matt gulped slightly. "If I do everything you say during this "lesson", will you answer my questions?" he asked, trying not to move.

Alexis thought about it for a second. "Fine," she reluctantly agreed. "But if you call me a filthy pirate one more time, I'll castrate you and I'm not kidding." She moved away from the raven and slid her sword back in its place. She spun around on the heel of her boot and kept walking. Matt followed her into her cabin, shutting the door behind him. "Now, if you're gonna be a pirate, you've gotta look like a pirate." She pulled open a few drawers and threw some clothes at the raven. "Here. These should fit you."

"Can I ask some questions now?" Matt asked. Alexis nodded, sitting down on her bed and grabbing a notebook from under her pillow, flipping open to about the middle. "Why did you run away?"

Alexis took a deep breath. This was the first time she was actually going to explain the whole story to anyone. Even Adam didn't know the whole story. "Shawn wasn't kidnapped," she started. "He fell in love."

— Flashback—

Shawn tapped his foot impatiently as he leaned against his bed. He had met this guy, Hunter, at the docks a few months ago and every time Hunter came into port, he met up with Shawn and the two had a romantic day together. Shawn knew he was a pirate, but he didn't care. He was in love and he was old enough that his parents couldn't control him.

"Hey there, sexy boy."

Shawn immediately straightened up, a smile instantly coming to his face when a figure appeared in his doorway. A tall blonde man pulled himself into the room and leaned against the wall with a grin on his face. His clothes were dirty and a sword glinted against his hip. "Hunter," Shawn said happily. He strode forward and gave the taller blonde a kiss. "What took you so long?"

"Sorry, baby," Hunter apologized, wrapping his arms around the smaller blonde. "Soldiers are out looking for me so I had to be careful." He smiled and kissed Shawn again. "I could never leave you, sexy boy. And I've got an idea." Shawn looked curiously up at him. "I'm gonna steal you. You'll come with me on my ship. Be my first mate so I'll never have to leave you again."

"Shawn?"

Shawn and Hunter looked at the doorway. Alexandra was standing in the doorway, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "Shawn, what are you doing?" she asked sleepily.

Shawn pulled himself out of his pirate's arms and walked over to his sister, resting his hands on her shoulders. "Alexandra, sweetie, I'm gonna go with Hunter and you can't tell anybody," he told her. "Can you promise me that?"

Alexandra's eyes filled with tears. "But…but…" She threw her arms around Shawn and started to cry. "I don't want you to leave!"

Shawn smiled warmly and looked her in the eye. "Alexandra, I love Hunter," he told her. "And I can't live like this anymore. All these rules and all these things I have to abide by. I can't take it anymore. I need to get out of here, Alexandra and I need you to understand that. do you understand?" Alexandra nodded. Shawn smiled again and kissed his sister on the forehead. "I love you, Alexandra." Alexandra watched as Shawn grabbed his jacket and followed Hunter out the window and out of sight.

—End Flashback—

"And you ran away two weeks later?" Matt asked, pulling on the boots she'd tossed him.

"Yep." Alexis shut her notebook.

"What happened then?"

—Flashback—

Alexandra pulled her jacket tighter against her body, shivering against the wind. She had thought long and hard about what Shawn had said and didn't want to live in a society she'd been forced to follow. That's why she'd run away and come down to the docks, hoping to find someone to take her away.

"Well, hello there, darling. What are you doing here this late?"

Alexandra spun around. Adam was leaning against a post behind her, a grin on his face. "What's your name, sweetie?" he asked.

"Alexandra," she replied softly. "Alexandra Shawn Hickenbottom."

"The noble?" She nodded slowly. "This is my lucky day." He walked closer. "How would you like to become a pirate, Alexandra Shawn Hickenbottom?"

—End Flashback—

"Changed my name to Alexis Michaels and Adam taught me everything I needed to know," Alexis finished. "And now I'm gonna have to teach you."

"How do I look?"

Alexis looked over. Matt was in a pair of scuffed black boots with some dark blue trousers over them, a long strip of multicolored cloth holding them up at the waist. A thick brown belt was under that and a black tunic-like shirt was on his torso, a blue vest over that. "Looks like everything fits," she said appreciatively. "But there's one more thing." She reached beside her bed and pulled out a sword. "Do you think you can handle this?"

"Just…answer one more question," Matt said, delicately taking the weapon. "Where is your brother now?"

"Last I heard, somewhere near Ducos with Hunter," Alexis replied after a few seconds of thought. "He's now the first mate on the Heartbreak Game." She lazily looked out the window. "Okay, let's just pretend I taught you how to use a sword, you failed, and we're all happy, okay?"

"Fine."

~.**.~

Adam looked over when Alexis walked toward him, Matt right behind her. "Jeff!" the raven yelled in concern, rushing over to his brother when he saw the bandages on his face. He spun around and glared at Adam. "What did you do to him?"

"We just had a little accident with a sword," Adam replied. "Don't worry about it." He looked at Alexis. "How did your lesson go?"

"He fails at swordfighting, but that's normal," Alexis said smugly with a side glance at Matt. "He's just a stuck-up noble after all."
