As the Dragon’s Breath drew near, the
men onboard her threw their grappling hooks. The Georgiana bucked as
the Dragon’s Breath secured her to its side.
From his cabin below, Captain Hughes
cursed as he watched the pirates stretch a plank between the two
ships and a boarding party rush his deck.
Stinky ran up to Boots’ side. “Boots,”
he whispered, panting. “Boots . . . ”
“What is it ye dolt? Can’t ye see I
be busy?” Boots straightened his coat and checked his appearance in
the reflection of his saber’s polished blade.
“The boy!” Stinky hunched over,
resting his hands on his knees. He took two big gulps of air. “I
can’t find the boy, the girl, or the pesky old cook.”
“What?”
“They be gone, Boots. Port side
skiff, too.”
Boots grabbed Stinky by the scruff of his
neck. “Speak not another word and say noth’n of this to another
soul!” he threatened. “Ain’t nothin’ that old cod and them
two worthless brats can do to us anyhow.”
A hawk cry pierced the air. With two
giant pulls from its powerful wings, it landed on the massive
shoulders of its master.
“Good girl,” a menacing deep voice
cooed while placing a tiny leather hood over the bird’s powerful
head. The rings on the man’s fingers reflected the intensity of the
sun’s final moments on the horizon, with the red sky matching the
rubies set within three of the seven bands he wore. From the man’s
left ear hung a feather matching his hawk’s on a golden hoop. His
long, soot-colored beard reached his waist, braided in places with
beads made of bone tied to the ends.
The boards creaked as he stepped onto the
ramp connecting his ship to the one he just acquired. The men before
him cheered and dipped their heads as he passed. A gust of wind
caught his blood-splattered, black dress coat, pushing it open. He
always wore black. The color calmed him.
The boarding party moved aside as Boots
stepped forward. “Cap’n,” he bowed, “the Georgiana.” Boots
swept his hand in front of him.
Red Blade’s eyes scanned the ship from
beneath his tricon hat.

My
brain swirled with thoughts of my new reality, about whether I would
be able to stay in school, keep my grades up, and manage to make it
to Paris.
Nope.
It was like pooping in space. I couldn't figure out a way to do it.
