(Y/N)'s P.O.V
Jim and I slowly peek out of the trap door leading up to the planet, hearing the soft snores of the pirates. We were making sure to keep silent, Jim looking to me as we nod to one another while slowly lifting the trap door up together.
Morph quietly coos and floats next to me when suddenly--
"So, whats the plan?!" Ben shrieks enthusiastically, slamming the trap door open into Morph, making him splatter apart.
Jim and I frantically shush Ben, our eyes wide with alarm.
"Ben! Be quiet!" Jim hisses, and I shove Ben's head and mouth together, shutting his mouth as Morph regenerates.
Silver lets out a large snore and turns over, otherwise undisturbed by Ben's loud outburst as the other pirates remain asleep as well. I let out a soft sigh of relief, Jim shaking his head as he sighs as well.
"Okay, here it is," Jim whispers to us while I still hold Ben's mouth shut. "We sneak back to the Legacy, disable the laser cannons... And bring back the map."
"That's a good plan," Ben agrees, his voice muffled due to me holding it shut. "I like that plan! The only thing is I'm wondering, how do we get there?"
I let go of Ben and grin, looking up at the boat floating above anchored down to a tree.
"On that," I whisper to the two, making them look up.
"Ooh!" Morph squeals quietly, grinning.
...
We somehow managed to quietly sneak onto the longboat, despite Ben's constant clanging and outbursts, and Jim flew us up to the Legacy. Jim slowly moves the boat closer to the ship, and we peek over the side.
"Ooh..." Morph squeals in a whisper, excited to be on the ship again.
Jim jumps over the side and onto the ship, turning to me and helping me over. We were silent as we moved, my eyes scanning the deck carefully.
"Aah!" Ben shrieks as he flops over the side, slamming into the deck and making me jump in surprise as Jim flinches.
"Ben! Shh!" Jim quietly scolds, looking around quickly in alarm.
"Sorry, sorry, sorry." Ben sheepishly apologizes, and we make our way over to the stairs leading below.
Jim presses against the wall and I copy him, watching as he peeks around the corner.
"Ok. We'll get the map. You wait here," Jim whispers, but Ben hears something completely different.
"Roger, Jimmy! I'll neutralize the laser cannons, sir!" Ben salutes, smacking Morph, making him splatter again.
"Ben! Ben!" Jim whisper screams with panic, but Ben ignores him.
"Yo-ho, yo-ho! A pirates life for me!" Ben sings happily, rolling away on wheels.
"Jim, you go after Ben," I whisper, making Jim look at me. "I'll get the map and meet you on the deck."
"I don't want you alone." Jim shakes his head, frowning deeply with furrowed brows. "Not an option."
"I won't be alone! Will I, Morph?" I coo, making the blob squeal and rub my cheek.
"I don't know..." Jim mumbles, and I place a kiss on his lips.
His frown changes to a small smile and he rolls his eyes, "You can't do that every time I say no to make me agree!"
"It works, doesn't it?" I grin and he sighs, walking the direction Ben went.
"You better come back without a single scratch, (Y/N)," Jim calls, walking backwards. "If you don't, I'm never letting you out of my sight again."
Jim turns and runs after Ben before I could say anything and I smile, rolling my eyes.
"Out of my sight again!" Morph mimics, making me chuckle and we make our way to the longboat room.
...
Third Person P.O.V
Jim and Ben find the main central control for the Legacy, and Ben scoffs, pouting.
"I don't see why you had to come, Jimmy. It's disabling a few laser cannons. What's the big deal?" Ben questions, "all we gotta do is find that one little wire!"
Jim sighs and opens the panel to the wires with a deadpan.
"One little wire..." Jim starts, "in all that."
He gestures to the tangled and intertwined wires, shaking his head with annoyance.
Ben peeks in the panel and gulps, "oh, mama."
...
..
Morph and (Y/N) slowly creep around the dark ship, and (Y/N) jumps when a soft clanging sound echoes in the area. Morph gently coos and rubs into her cheek reassuringly, making her smile and walk on with a nod.
The (H/C) haired girl sees the bundle of rope the map was in and rushes over, kneeling down and moving some of the rope.
She sighs heavily in relief, looking over the map with a smile as she carefully holds it and looks at her reflection.
"Yes..." The girl sighs out, and Morph floats to it. "Oh, no, you don't!" (Y/N) laughs, tucking the map away. "You already caused a lot of mischief with the map!"
Morph coos a bashful giggle, making (Y/N) laugh. She gasps and yelps when suddenly an alarm starts blaring, the room flashing red.
...
..
"Ben!" Jim yells at Ben with wide eyes, "I told you not to touch that!!"
"Bad Ben! Bad!" Ben scolds himself, "okay! Fixing!" Ben plugs the wire back in, making the alarm stop. "Sorry! Sorry!"
...
..
"What the heck are they doing?!" (Y/N) whispers to herself, racing through the hallways as she shakes her head.
Morph flies next to her as she continues ranting, a bit breathless from running.
"They're gonna get us all..." Her heart drops into her stomach as she rounds the corner, spotting a familiar figure. "... Killed..." Her eyes widen and her face pales, staring into his yellow eyes.
"Cabin girl," Scoop grins maliciously, opening his claw in a threatening manner.
(Y/N) screams, turning and racing away, Morph screaming and doing the same.
...
..
Jim freezes as (Y/N)'s scream echoes through the halls, making him look up and to the door.
"Was that (Y/N)?" Ben questions with concern, rubbing his head.
"Ben, keep working!" Jim orders sharply, running out of the room in the direction of her scream.
"On it, Jimmy!"
...
..
(Y/N) runs through the hallways, making twists and turns and knocking random barrels and crates in the path of Scroop, hoping to slow him down.
Scroop easily avoids the objects, racing up and over using the ceiling.
He swipes his claw down and manages to give a nasty cut on (Y/N)'s shoulder, making her yelp in pain and stagger slightly.
Morph looks back and screams, turning into a pie and splattering onto Scroop's face. Scroop stops, growling as he yanks Morph off of his face and throwing him into a pipe.
Morph screams as he is sucked in and jolted through the pipes above.
The young girl skids around the corner, noticing the pipe jerking and hearing Morph's voice.
(Y/N) stops and presses against the wall, holding her bleeding shoulder in pain. She looks at her hand and sees a red substance, making her curse to herself.
Something slightly blinds her, and she squints, looking in the direction of whatever blinded her.
Her (E/C) eyes widen when she spots a beautiful long sword with a (F/C) handle.
She quickly grabs it and jumped from her spot, aiming the blade towards Scroop.
He actually freezes in fear for a moment, and (Y/N) smiles triumphantly until...
The power flicks off.
...
..
"Whoops! Okay! Don't panic!" Ben wheezes out with fear, his eyes lighting the room. "Breathing in... Breathing out!"
...
..
Jim slams into a wall as the power flicks off, his breathing rough and uneven from running non-stop through the halls, looking for (Y/N).
The lights flicker on a dull red, indicating the system was rebooting.
Jim frantically continues to look around, and felt like his heart stopped beating for a moment. Jim's eyes widen in horror as he spots his girl looking around, Scroop hovering above (Y/N) as she looks around with sharp eyes for the man.
The sword in her hands tremble and Jim snaps back to reality as Scroop starts moving.
"(Y/N)!!" Jim bellows, his voice echoing in the small hallway.
(Y/N)'s head snaps to look at Jim and she looks behind her, screaming when she sees Scroop.
Morph bursts out of a pipe right in Scroop's face, making him pause in question.
Morph screams and turns into a hand, jabbing Scroop's eyeballs.
Morph was sucked back into the pipe as Scroop yells in agony, swinging his hand down to strike (Y/N).
Jim leaps in front of (Y/N) and takes the hit, slamming into the wall harshly and hitting his head, making him dizzy as he stumbles while trying to rise.
Scroop sneers at Jim and goes to leap at (Y/N), going in for the kill as she recoils back with a scowl, her arms raised in front of her face.
...
..
"This has gotta be cannons!" Ben unplugs the wire, making him and some loose objects float. "Maybe not!"
...
..
Jim groans in pain and shakes his head as the three of them begin to float, the antigravity now off. He was safe under a beam, trying to shake off his dizziness to protect (Y/N).
Scroop grabs (Y/N), making the girl scowl and kick him roughly in the stomach with a shout. Scroop grunts and was launched away from her, spiraling in the air slamming into into the weak grate above, breaking it.
(Y/N) gasps and Jim tries to blindly grab for her, but he misses her hand by an inch and she floats up and outside following Scroop.
...
..
Scroop manages to grab onto a rope, roaring as he tries to swipe and grab (Y/N). He misses and smacks her foot, making her start to spin out of control as she continues flying towards the sky with wide eyes.
(Y/N) grunts as she smacks into the lookout post, and she barely manages to grab onto Silver's pirate flag. Her knuckles turn white from grasping the material, her breathing a bit uneven.
Her gaze looks back to the ship as she struggles to hold on, and her eyes widen in fear as Scroop starts climbing up the beam towards her.
...
..
Jim grits his teeth as he forces himself to focus, glancing up as he kicks off the wall and floats upwards after the two. He grabs onto a rope near the pillar and looks up, his heart hammering in his chest when he sees Scroop racing towards (Y/N).
Jim carefully follows after him, scowling dangerously.
...
..
(Y/N) frantically reaches for the blade, gritting her teeth.
"Come on! Come on, come on!!" She encourages herself urgently, her hand missing the handle by a hair as it spirals upward to the sky. "No!!"
"Oh, yes!" Scroop snickers, glaring up at the girl as she struggles to hold on. He pauses his claw inches from the rope holding the flag and sneers up at her, staring at her face of horror.
Scroop lets out a loud laugh, "that is exactly how your mother looked before I killed your father and her!"
(Y/N)'s blood runs cold and heart nearly shatters in sadness at the thought, goosebumps erupting over her arms as she becomes overwhelmed with despair as her breathing picks up.
"Do say hello to your parents and Mr. Arrow!" Scroop starts to cut the rope, making (Y/N) snap back to reality with a scowl.
(Y/N) yanks her body along the flag and grabs onto the pole as she sharply glares down at the alien, making Scroop roar in annoyance as he makes a move to lunge at her.
"Tell them yourself!" A voice furiously shouts, making (Y/N) gasp.
"Jim!" She calls in happiness and relief.
Jim swiftly pulls himself up and kicks Scroop in the back, making Scroop fly up and into the flag (Y/N) was holding seconds ago.
Jim grabs onto the beam to keep himself from floating up into space, the two watching as the rope holding the flag snaps.
Scroop furiously bursts from the flag, his enraged look fading to horror when he sees Jim and (Y/N) becoming smaller as he continues to float up towards space.
Scroop lets out a terrified scream, still tangled in the flag as he was sent up to his demise.
...
..
"Back ya go, you naughty plug!!" Ben shrieks, kicking his feet madly through the air to try to get to the panel. He manages to plug it back in and exclaims when he bellyflops to the ground.
...

(Y/N)'s P.O.V
I let out a yelp as the gravity was turned back on, my grip slipping from the beam and the lookout's post rapidly approaches me. I shut my eyes and brace for the harsh wood, but I'm caught in someone's warm awaiting arms.
I instantly knew it was Jim, and cling onto him while gasping and panting, everything hitting me at once.
He drops down sitting criss crow while holding me, gently cradling me to him as he softly pants, catching his own breath.
"Shh... Shh, you're okay... He won't hurt you ever again," Jim coos to me gently, making me pull my teary face from his chest and look at him.
Jim gently kisses all over my face and hugs me tightly, rocking us slowly and rubbing my back while I lightly cry.
He strokes my hair softy and kisses the top of my head, sighing in relief as he holds me close once more. My breathing starts to calm, and I feel a sense of peace knowing my parents could rest easy now. I lean against Jim, sighing shakily as my crying slowly stops.
"I'm-- I'm okay... thank you, Jim." My voice was quiet and trembling a bit, but I felt much better, remaining in his arms with my face pressed into his chest.
Jim only softly sighs with relief, cradling my head to his chest as we remain in a comforting silence for a few moments.
"Wait... What's this?" Jim questions, breaking the silence, and I know he saw my blood soaked clothing on my left shoulder.
"Scroop... managed to swipe me," I mumble out, snuggling into him.
Jim remains silent for a moment before hugging me closer, "you do realize that means I'm literally never letting you out of my sight again, right?"
"Not a problem with that," I lightly chuckle, sniffling and wiping my eyes.
The pipe next to us starts rattling and Morph bursts out of it, completely covered in black. Morph violently coughs, effectively ridding of the blackness and I giggle.
"Morph?" Jim questions, and Morph coos and rubs his cheek before swirling around my head and squealing.
"He really saved my hide a lot back there... Thank you, Morph," I lightly coo, making him rub my cheek affectionately as he squeals happily.
"Well, then! I guess I owe you for savin' my girl, huh?" Jim smirks at Morph, who bashfully chirps as he smiles.
"Laser cannons disconnected Captain Jimmy and First Mate (Y/N)!" Ben calls from below, making Jim and I look down at the deck.
I snort and slap a hand over my mouth at the sight of Ben covered in wires, indicating he simply yanked them all out.
"That wasn't so tough!" Ben laughs weakly, the wires wrapped around him sparking and smoking.
I take the map out of my pocket and hold it out to Jim, making him smile softly with a nod as he grabs it.
He inspects it as Morph chitters at it, a soft sigh leaving me as I look up at the starry sky with a relieved smile.
...
owo Scroop has met his demise!
I should have another chapter up by today, so stay tuned!
Until we meet again, Lovelies! ðâ¤
