"Compromise."
"Ben," Zelda whispered, "I loved you, but I can't compromise with her. We're enemies."
"I love you too, Zelda," Ben whispered as well. "Now," he spoke to where Olivia could hear, "you two need to get along. All of us guys are."
"We're not guys," Olivia said.
"Yes," Zelda agreed. "We're girls. It's not as easy for us to get along. Especially if one killed the other's cousin," she pointed out.
Olivia was ticked off. "If only I didn't make that dumb promise to your stupid cousin, then I'd kill you as well."
"To bad that's not going to happen, because when we're done with this problem, then you and your crew are going back to that jail."
"I'll kill you before that happens.... Then I'll be free to roam."
"I like to see you try."
"Okay. Let's fight right now."
"Bring it on."
"Are you just as bad of a fighter as your dead cousin?"
Zelda was ticked. "You went to far, Olivia."
Zelda and Olivia went to fight.
"Oh no," Ben told himself. He stepped in between them, mad. "LADIES! CALM DOWN!"
Zelda looked at Ben with sadness in her eyes. "But...."
"No. You two need to try to get along. I don't care what either of you say. There's a kid on this ship that shouldn't be here," Ben reminded them, "and what's he going to say when he hears you two fighting? Now, the both of you applogize to each other. I want the both of you to work together. It's not forever. So, please, try to work this problem out."
"Sorry, Olivia," Zelda said, rudely.
"Sorry, Zelda," Olivia said, also in a rude tone.
"It's better than nothing," Ben told himself.
Donny and Max jumped onto the bed.
"Look at that," Ben told Zelda and Olivia. "They know they're enemies, but they're getting along."
Zelda and Olivia didn't say anything.
"I have an idea for the sleeping arrangements, but you two have to share the bed."
"No way," Olivia said.
"Come on."
"There's no room for the two of us on that bed."
"I agree," Zelda said.
"Look," Ben told them, "one can sleep at one end, and the other can sleep at the other end. Zelda, you can sleep closer to the wall. Olivia, you can sleep near the edge, but not to close to where you'll fall off."
"You have got to be kidding me," Olivia protested.
"Ben, can you stay in here for the night to make sure that we don't fight?" Zelda asked.
"Yea," Ben replied. Which Captain Leaves the Ship
The next day, Zelda and Olivia were out on the deck of the White Rose. Zelda was leaning against the wall, letting her arms rest on top of it. Olivia was also leaning against the wall.
"So where are we going?" Olivia asked.
"Where are we going?" Zelda repeated, frustrated that Olivia didn't know the answer. She expected Olivia to know the answer. She didn't want to have to tell her that. "That's the dumbest question ever.... And you call me dumb. We're going to Blaze so that way we can see what kind of guy Will is."
Olivia just asked a question. She didn't know why Zelda was ticked off for no reason. She wasn't being rude and she didn't ask in a rude manner either. She just wanted to know where they were going. "You don't have to be rude," Olivia shot back, "Zelda." She hated that about Zelda. "I was just asking a question."
There was a long, ackward paused.
"You know I've never seen Will before," Olivia admitted as she turned to look at the dark, starry outskirts of space, and watching the sky change to an light blue color with a bit of light coming from the sun as they hit the atmosphere of the fire planet. "I mean I've heard about him but I never actaully seen him."
"Me niether." Zelda kind of laughed. "You know it's weird we have something in common but we're enemies."
Olivia kind of laughed as well. "I know.... Kind of makes you wonder."
"Yea, but I still hate you."
"And I still hate you."
They shared a laugh.
"Some times I wonder if you never killed Ryoko would we have been fri---" Zelda tried to say friends but the word never came out. "Fri--- Fri--- Would we have been like sisters?"
"We'll never know."
Zelda started to think. "I wonder if that's the reason why Ryoko wants us to work together to stop Will."
"No. She knows that we're enemies and that there's no way in the universe we'll get along."
"Yea.... What do you think her reason was?"
"I think that she just wanted to embarrass me in front of...." Olivia stopped. She didn't want to tell Zelda her secret.
"In front of who?" Zelda was curious. She wanted Olivia to tell her, but Olivia didn't want to talk about it.
"Never mind."
"Ok-ay."
There was another long pause.
"This is nice," Zelda said to break the silince.
"Yep."
Zelda looked around and realized that the guys weren't around. "Where's the guys?"
"Probably taking a break."
Donny and Max started to play fight.
"Look at them two," Olivia said, watching them, "they get along better than we do."
"They're different from each other," Zelda agreed, "but they act like brothers. We were like sisters before that.... Day."
They both remembered that horrible day. Zelda looked down at her feet to try to get the memory out of her head.
Olivia seen the sadness take over Zelda and she actually felt bad. It was her fault why Ryoko was dead and secretly she wished that she could change that. "Yea.... But life goes on," was all she could say.
At one time, her and Zelda were like sisters. They did almost everything together, but now they were enemies and they wanted to kill each other. After that terrible day, Zelda knew what people meant by your best friend could be your worst enemy. It was true for her and the pain was still there.
Max and Donny stopped playing and walked over to Zelda and Olivia.
Zelda kneeled down next to Max and gave him a hug. "How's mommy's baby? Are you being good?"
Max licked her on the cheek.
Zelda smiled. "I'll take that as a yes."
"How old is Max?"
"Let's see he's 17, so times that by 7, he's 119 years old."
Olivia was shocked. Max was old but he seemev to be doing really good for his age. He acted like a puppy and looked young. "And you treat him like a puppy?"
"Yep."
Zelda and Olivia were to busy talking that they hadn't realized the ship had now landed on Blaze and was next to the dock. Peter and Blake walked over to them.
"Captain," Peter said, "we're on Blaze."
"Okay."
"Where have you two been?" Olivia asked.
"We were hanging out in the wine...." Peter started to say.
"Kitchen," Blake said, cutting off Peter because he didn't want Olivia to know that he was drinking.
"Oh.... Then how did you know that we landed?" Zelda asked.
"Oh.... Jeremy told us to tell you two," Peter replied.
"Okay," Olivia said.
"Okay, Olivia.... You are to stay on the ship and make sure that nothing happens to Larry and the ship," Zelda ordered.
"Why do I have to stay? It's your ship and I'll scare the kid.... Remember?" Olivia asked, ticked off.
"That's why...." Zelda started to say.
"LADIES!" Peter exclaimed, cutting off Zelda. "Don't fight. How about this we'll flip a coin? Whoever wins gets to go but they have to go with someone from their crew and someone from the other's crew.... Okay?"
"Okay," Olivia and Zelda agreed.
Peter dug into his pockets for a coin. He found one. "Okay." He got ready to flip it. "Olivia, when it goes in the air you call heads or tails. Okay. Captain, don't say anything."
He flipped the coin.
"HEADS!" Olivia called as it went into the air.
It landed in his right hand. He took his right hand and put it on top of his left hand. "Whatever happens, happens. Okay?" He moved his left hand. "It's on.... Tails."
"Yes."
"Crap."
Keaton and Romano were in a little store which had a lot of party stuff. They were looking for things to get for a party at the fire castle which was going on that night. Zelda, Ben, and John walked into the store. They actually didn't have a reason for being there. Zelda noticed Keaton and Romano and turned her back to them before they noticed who she was. "Oh crap."
"What?" John asked, walking over to her.
Ben walked with him.
"Dumb and dummer are here," Zelda replied. She noticed a thing of sunglasses. "I have an idea." She walked over to the sunglasses, made sure that no one was watching before she took three pairs and ripped the tags off. She walked back to John and Ben. "You take these," she said, handing a pair to John and another to Ben, "you take these...." She put a pair on herself. "And I'll take these."
"Okay," John and Ben said.
"Benjamin, can you get two hats.... One for you and one for you're brother.... Take the tags off."
"Okay." Ben went to the hats. He grabbed two and walked back over to John and Zelda. He handed one to John and placed the other one on his head. They walked over to Keaton and Romano.
"What would be good for the party, Romano?" Keaton asked.
"Excuse me...." Zelda walked in between them and picked up a board game and pretended to look at it. "Aren't you two bounty hunters?"
"Yes, we are, miss," Romano answered, looking at a card.
"Oh.... Then why are you two here? Don't you have pirates to go after?"
"Well, yea.... But this is our job for now," Keaton replied.
"And what are you doing exactly?"
"Looking for things for a party," Romano answered, placing the card down.
"Oh.... And who's party is it?" Zelda asked, putting the board game down and turned to face Romano.
"Well, see Prince Will is back and we're having a party for him."
"Oh." Zelda started flirting with the two bounty hunters. "Well, do you think that you can let me get in?"
"That depends.... Are you rich?"
"Well,
