The Pirates Curse (Lunarwolf and GuardianAngel)

The man was just looking at the woman for a moment in time although he spoke, "We were given orders to kill her if you showed up." Already a few of his men were moving forward.
 
"your life then" Arianna released the arrow and watched as it went right into his skull avoiding the princess altogether. this was when her men moved in and attacked those moving towards the princess. Arianna then moved to her and carefully hugged her close "how does a warm bath and some clean clothes sound to you"
 
The princess could feel something wet drip all over her although she didn't open her eyes at all, even giving a startled squeak when somebody was touching her. Yet it wasn't long before she heard Arianna's voice and seemed to calm down a bit, just sniffling a bit. "I want to go home.... I want my mom and dad...." she was whimpering in a frightened voice. As this was happening already one of Arianna's men was getting a secret message sent off to Sin so that the other woman knew that the princess was safe.
 
"I know but it is a bit of a trip and I doubt you want to have what is on you on your skin the whole trip" Arianna carefully picked the girl up in case she was injured and then headed for her ship telling the men to finish up and leave no survivors. Arianna would tend to the princess herself since she knew being around a bunch of men would make her nervous
 
The princess didn't seem to say anything at all just kept her eyes closed tightly, not opening them at all until she was told that she could open them. She was thankfully uninjured other than the small cut on her neck, and that was pretty superficial as well, so it wouldn't take long to heal either.
 
Arianna headed into her cabin once they reached the ship and then set her down "I am going to get your dress off and then in to the bath ok once your in the water you can open your eyes" Arianna had had some of the crew heat water up for her bath as she had known the girl would need one
 
The princess was just giving a nod of her head before she spoke in a soft, yet frightened voice, "I trust you." Yes she was still quivering but it wasn't out of fear of Arianna, it was out of fear of what had just happened.
 
"your safe now and I will train your guards before leaving to make sure your never harmed again they will be able to prevent this form happening" Arianna quickly got her out of the now blood-stained clothes and then carefully set her in the warm water it had thankfully cooled to a safe temperature
 
Liliana, the princess, was just giving a slow nod of her head before she was speaking in a soft voice, "Some of my guards were killed trying to keep me safe. They tried but.... those people.... they didn't fight like most guards did. They fought very unfairly. We were headed back to the palace and they brought in civilians.... and the guards were so.... tied up. It was their job to protect me but as guards of the kingdom it is also their duty to protect the people of the kingdom."
 
"hence why I will train them this way they can keep you safe and protect your people" once she was settled in the water Arianna went to work washing the young girls hair as there was blood in it
 
Liliana was giving a small nod of her head and jumped a bit when there was a small tap on the door. "Ari, we have returned. And I had one of the men send a message to Sin to inform her that Princess Liliana is safe." the voice spoke but never once did the door open. Nope the person who took over as the first mate when Sin wasn't around was smart enough not to do that.
 
"thank you get us sailing to Avalor and did you bring back that sailor with us we will need him" Arianna continued to work while they spoke through her door
 
"Yes that man is aboard the ship right now. He helped us finish the task and followed us back." the man was speaking before shouting out a few orders for them to get moving.
 
"good settle him in a cabin below but keep him from the princess for now until we know his intentions I don't want him near her" once she was done cleaning the little girl she helped her out of the tub and dried her off before putting her in one of her shirts to rest for the time being
 
Not that she really needed to give that order at all, it had already been done. And now he was calling out orders for them to set sail and return to Avalor.
 
"then sleep little one no one will bother you while you rest" Arianna made sure she was tucked in and settled before leaving the cabin to see if they could get through to Avalor faster
 
after she left the room Arianna headed up to the wheel "can we use the cut-through or do you think it's too risky?" the cut-through would allow them to reach Avalor in hours instead of days but in the very center of it was a maze of rocks that you had to carefully navigate or crash
 
"I think it would be safest to go the long way. I do not feel confident enough to try and navigate you through the rocks.... and none of us feel confident enough to try and navigate through the rocks even with you giving direction." the temporary First Mate was speaking and a few others were nodding in agreement. Now it would be a completely different story if Sin were there giving direction, or even if the roles were reversed. When it came to Arianna and Sin doing anything as a team.... they were unstoppable.
 
Ariannna sighed and then nodded "I understand I just want to get her home and fast but if none of you feel safe doing it then we wont"
 
"I wish I could say I do because I want to get her back as well but... It would be best... To go the long way." The man was speaking after a moment in time.

Who would have figured that in the end the king would end up getting the upper hand on Cobra and Sin, and that was by using innocents as shields. Now Sin was on her knees trying to catch her breath after being hit in the chest.
 
The king was just watching with a faint smirk on his lips as though he had won. Although it wasn't long before Sin started to giggle a bit. "Well that assures me that.... There is no fear." She was just taking the colored ribbon that was being dropped. The sign that the princess was safe.
