About two days later I was sitting alone in my chamber sipping tea, Max and Ludwan were on deck looking at the sea when a cabin-boy walked in and announced:

    “We have captured the pirates’ captain, my Lord, should I bring him in?”

    “Yes do so at once”

    The cabin-boy opened the door wider and let a man in. I observed him with care. He wasn’t too tall only about 5 feet 7 inches in height. He looked rather amusing with his expensive clothes ripped, and soiled by the sea.

    “Welcome, captain,” I said to the pirate

    “I require no welcome from you”

    I ignored the comment and continued:

    “Would you like some tea, or a new pair of clothes,” I asked with all the compassion I could muster.

    “Not, from a bastard like you,” he replied, raising his voice.

    “How dare you speak to me like that,” I exclaimed in anger.

    “You’re not my lord,” yelled back the pirate.

    “I am Lord Goodwin,” I exclaimed, rising to my feet, and spilling the tea, “Part of her Majesties army, and I’m leading the 4th legion, to Aurostrophia, to defeat the Medusa Queen. I am your capture, and superior to you in every way. Now state your title FOOL”

    “You have no need for my title, for you won’t live long enough to use it,” replied the pirate, boiling over with anger, removing his holster. Just then I realized the holsters sides were as sharp as elven blades.

    “Guards,” I yelled out and two cabin boys ran in, grabbing the pirate before he could jump at me. The pirate tried to struggle, but it was useless, the two men were stronger than him.

    “You people never learn,” I said staring the pirate in the eyes and then turning to one of the cabin boys added, “Take him up above deck”

    The two men obeyed, and dragged the pirate out.
