"HEY!"
Grace felt Julien being ripped away from her. She blinked a couple of times and slowly raised her hand tracing her lower lip with her fingers.
Her eyes widened in realization while she started hyperventilating.
Too much. This was just too much for her.
"Grace?!" Her head snapped to the person who called out her name. Moose pushed Julien to the ground "Grace! Are you ok?!" he took a step towards her, but immediately stopped when she took a step back.
The Vault.
The Pirates.
Her brother.
Moose.
NYU…
Her head pounded painfully, so she fled.
She ran out of the building ripping off the black mask from her face without noticing how Moose yelled out for her.
"What have you done!" Moose growled at Julien, who in turn just smirked at him. "She saw you dancing happily with that chick" he chuckled "Why weren't you with your lovely Gracie? Don't you want her anymore? Cause if you don't, well I surely do want her" Julien snickered when he saw curly head sporting a shocked face.
Moose opened his mouth to argue, but Julien cut him off "Well, it doesn't really matter because she saw you, and I think I successfully convinced her to not only leave you, but also The Pirates"
"Y-you're lying!" Moose hissed, but he couldn't help but remember how shocked and sad Grace looked.
"Oh, no you dumb boy! You'll see! Just wait for it!"
"Grace will come to ME"
And with that, Julien stood up and walked away with a sinister smile.
Surprisingly the audience stayed away from the fight but was obviously gossiping in low voices.
Moose couldn't swallow what had just happened. But decided not to risk it and went to look for Grace.
-During the time the fight was happening-
Luke and Natalie had run away to the second floor before the love triangle drama flared out.
He leaned his back against the wall and pulled Natalie against him wrapping his arm around her "I have a surprise for you" He whispered before reaching for something on his slacks back pocket. "This is for you" he whispered. "Born From a Boombox, a Like Katcher Film… You finished it!" Natalie couldn't believe that Luke had finally finished the movie, and she was surprised that he was giving it to her. She hugged him tightly "I'm so happy! I'm so glad you did it!"
Julien's image suddenly came into Natalie's mind. If Luke discovers that their siblings, he would definitely leave her, he wouldn't just ignore the fact that her brother was the one who made Grace miserable.
"Let's get out of here!" Natalie suddenly begged Luke "No one will see us-"he said with confused.
Natalie shook her head "No, I mean lets escape from here, you can go to Film school, leave and go somewhere else!" She grasped his shoulders desperately "We can go anywhere we want! Nothing can restrain us!" Luke frowned slightly "What about Gra-"he was silenced by Natalie's lips as she kissed him with all the passion she could muster, for which he obviously didn't hesitate to respond.
He had never felt this way before, not for a girl that wasn't his sister. He loved Grace very much, so did it mean that he loved Natalie too?
Did he love Natalie?
Like a sister no, what about a lover?
Luke pulled away from the kiss and couldn't help but smile warmly at the woman he was still hugging tightly. "Natalie, I want to ask you something" she tilted her head "What is it?"
"W-Will you be my girlf-"
"Well hello there Luke" Julien's face showed no emotion as he saw his sister and his enemy together "I'm so glad you got my invitation! You know, I was actually afraid you wouldn't show up"
Natalie finally understood "Julien, you were the one who invited Luke?"
"Julien, what are you doing here?" Luke growled, he stepped away from Natalie as he thought about pushing her behind him for protection, but before he could even do that, Julien interrupted him.
"Did you enjoy my sister's party?"
Luke froze "His joking right?" He felt his heart being squeezed by a fist "Natalie?! Tell me his joking!"
"I'm not" Julien smirked at how everything was turning out to be "I'm her big brother"
Natalie caressed Luke's neck as she gazed at him pleadingly "I'm so sorry! I-I just-"
"SORRY?!" Luke's eyes blazed with anger, betrayal and agony, he felt fire eating up his chest as he glared at the siblings standing before him "You two planned this didn't you!-" and then it came crashing down on his mind "You! You were the one who tapped us and uploaded out choreography on Internet!" His eyes widened and stared down at Natalie.
"Lovely isn't she?" Julien joked, but Luke couldn't stop glaring at Natalie "How can you live with yourself when your brother beat up and almost raped my sister?!"
"You looking for a place to stay… it was all a lie wasn't it" Luke murmured "Yes it was!" Julien gleefully added.
"No! It wasn't- At first it was, but then I met you! And-and I just, I fell in love with you Luke! And that was all real! That's why I had to leave!" Natalie grabbed his neck, but he instantly pushed her away.
"Don't! Just don't" Luke huffed, he couldn't believe how well he was played by those two. He nodded slowly to himself, he was tricked good, he would admit that "You now Natalie, I was just about to ask you to be my girlfriend… but now, I'm so glad I didn't" and with that, he walked away.
Natalie could almost see how her life started cracking and slowly fell apart in front of her eyes.
Grace gasped for air desperately; she had amazingly managed to run all the way back to the Vault. Her cheeks were covered with tears, and her lip was red from continuously biting on it. But all thoughts left her mind when she saw all the Pirates standing outside their home.
"No" she unconsciously whispered "No, it can't be" she ran to the door carefully dodging the crew, and that was when she saw it.
"Property Seizure, no please no!" Grace rubbed her eyes to try to stop the tears she knew were coming, but she failed and started sobbing uncontrollably. She gasped when she felt several pairs of arms wrapping around her, hugging her and comforting her. She slowly looked up and saw Anala, the twins, Jacob and Jason smiling sadly at her.
"Please don't cry Chiquita" "We will make it out of this one" the twins ruffled her hair.
"Remember we have each other's back" Anala patted her cheek.
"We are Pirates! And Pirates don't ever give up" Jacob smiled warmly at her.
"Just don't lose hope" Jason finally added with a gentle flicker of her nose.
Grace couldn't help but smile back at their positive attitude. She had decided right then and there, that she would go to Julien and accept the deal only to save them, save her family, her crew, her beloved Pirates.
