Space Pirates 2: Ryoko's Warning by Amber Riel (top e book reader txt) 📕

It's been four years, since Zelda had helped the police capture Olivia and her crew. Zelda was in her office, which was a complete mess. There were paper and books all over the floor along with empty rum bottles. Zelda was on her bed sleeping. She was tossing and turning because she was having a horrible nightmare.


She seen herself, when she was 12-years-old. She was in a little bookstore. The windows had been blocked off. There was someone else in the room as well. She was Olivia. Zelda wasn't worried about Olivia, she just wanted something to calm her down.
"I can't find a weapon anywhere. You?" she asked.
Olivia hid her sword to where Zelda wouldn't see it. "No."
"This is bad." Zelda was freaking out. She looked everywhere for a weapon, but no luck. "We're in a war against those blood thirsty bounty hunters and to make things worst there's only five of us." She wasn't thinking about the other pirates from the other crews.
"Actually, there's only three of us now."
"What?"
"Yea. You, Ryoko, and me."
"Oh, man. It's worst than I thought. Where's the rum?" She started looking for rum and forgot about looking for a weapon.
"The rum? Is that all you're worried about is the rum?" Olivia crossed her arms, leaned against a wall, and shook her head. "Come on, Zelda. You're a moron. Think about it, we could die today, and you wouldn't care. You're freaking out because you can't find the rum."
"I'm freaking out 'cause we might die that's why I need the rum. Just so I can calm down. You would know that if you just asked. I can see that we might get killed. We don't stand a chance against those bounty hunters. We better be glad that Magma isn't here to kill us as well."
"That's because she's the one who had the bounty hunters come and kill us. If you only could see that."
"I don't want to talk about this. Now, just help me look for weapons."
They started to look for weapons, when they heard gun shots on the other side of the door.
"Oh, crap. That don't sound good."
"Of course it don't sound good, someone's getting shot." Olivia turned to a closet and opened the door. "Hopefully, it's her no good cousin," she said to herself.
The door flew open. They got ready to fight, Zelda grabbed an empty rum bottle, which she had found and broke it to use it as a weapon. She looked at Olivia and smiled. "See why I need the rum?"
Olivia just shook her head. Ryoko walked in. She was bearly walking. "They got me.... They got me...." She dropped dead to the ground.
Olivia walked over to close the door and locked it as Zelda ran over to her cousin, crying. She tried to wake Ryoko up. "Ryoko, wake up. Please, don't be dead. Please don't...."
Ryoko woke up, laughing. "Got ya."
"Don't do that." Zelda started laughing in relief. She was glad her cousin wasn't dead.
Ryoko stood up. "Sorry, cuz. I just couldn't help it. I had this blood on me and I thought that it'd be funny. Heck, it's not even my blood. It's some of those bounty hunters' blood."
Olivia walked away from the door. "Where were you, Captain Ryoko?"
"I was getting some more laisers for my gun. 'Cause in the middle of the fight, I ran out. I ran into Leo. He sent most of his men after me. Can you believe that Magma has all those guys out to kill us?" Ryoko knew the truth. She knew that Magma was evil, but the bounty hunters weren't working for her.
"Yea," Olivia agreed.
"Oh yea," Zelda also agreed.
"Honestly, I don't think that Magma sent those bount hunters after us though. I think it was her brother."
"I didn't know that Magma had a brother," Zelda said, confused.
"Neither did I," Olivia said, just as confused.
"Oh yea. Hi name is Will. He's ya'lls ago," Ryoko told them.
Someone tried to open the door from the outside.
"Now, we better go out there before they come in here."
"Good idea, captain," Zelda agreed.
                                              *****
Once they were outside, they started fighting the bounty hunters. Zelda turned to say something to Ryoko, when she seen Olivia take her sword and kill Ryoko.


"NOOO, RYOKO!" Zelda screamed no longer dreaming.
Ben and Peter rushed into the room. They had been outside, not too far from Zelda's office. "Are you okay, captain?" Ben asked.
"Yea. We were out on the deck fixing the floor when we heard you scream," Peter said, worried.
"I need some rum," Zelda whispered. "Peter Pan, can you go get me some rum, please?"
"Yes, captain." Peter left the room.
"Benjamin, don't leave me."
"I'm right here." Ben walked over to her. He sat a chair next to her bed. "I would never," he started to say as he sat down, "leave you."
"I can't go back to sleep. I've been reliving that day in my head for the past couple of weeks. I don't want that terrible memory in my head. I watched her die once, I don't want to see it again."
Ben took her in his arms. He pulled her close to his chest. "It's okay. Everything's going to be alright. Don't worry. I bet your cousin's making sure that you're safe."
Ryoko's ghost appeared, but only Max could see her. He started growling.
"Max?!" Zelda said, confused.
Max stopped growling and Ryoko's ghost disappeared.
"Well, someone's protective," Ben said to get Zelda to laugh. He was smiling himself.
Zelda smiled. "Benjamin, I have something to admit."
"Yea, what?"
"I liked you, ever since we met.... And I still do. I was just afraid to tell you. I thought if I told you then things might be different around us and we would be too embarrassed to even speak to each other."
"Really?"
"Yea."
"Are you sure this isn't a dream?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
Ben was hoping for a kiss. "Can you prove it?"
Zelda smiled. They went to kiss when....
"I got the.... Um.... Oops," Peter said, walking in with a bottle of rum. "I just ruined something.... Didn't I?"
Ben nodded in agreement.
"You know that secret that I told you to keep four years ago?" Zelda asked.
"Yea."
"I told him."
"THAT'S GREAT! Does this mean that you two are going to get married?"
Zelda and Ben started laughing.

Olivia was sitting on a long, rectangler bed in her cell, mad. Donny was laying on the bed, stretched out. He was almost full grown again. The cut on his neck had became a scar. "I can't believe this," she said to herself. "I should of been one to roam the universe, not Zelda. Heck, I lost my ship. A bunch of bums probably took it and are living there now with their families. If I get my ship back, I swear I'll kill anyone who's living there. Of course, I could have my crew do it for me so that way I could be lazy. Then if I run into Zelda again, I'll have enough energy to kill her. That would be the best day ever."
Daniel walked over to Olivia's cell with a plate of something that didn't look like food and a cup of water. He placed the plate and cup on the ground insidde of the cell. "Here you go, Olivia. Eat up."
Olivia looked at the food, funny. "What is it?"
Daniel looked at the food, trying to figure out what it was. "I think it's chicken...."
"It looks green. I'm not going to eat that."
"Well, too bad." Daniel walked away.
"Stupid cop."
Donny walked over to the plate and started eating the food.
"Donny, don't eat that.... Food. Never mind. Too late."
John was in the cell across Olivia. He was next to the cell door. He was holding onto one bar with one hand and the other hand was hanging over the horixontal bar. "Captain, did you eat the food?" he asked.
"No."
"Good. 'Cause it taste like someone threw up in it."
"Gross."
Ryan was in the cell next to John. "Thanks a lot, man," he said, mad. "I'm not hungry now."
"Sorry, Ryan, but it's true," John said.
"I can't wait 'til I die," Olivia said.
"Why?"
"'Cause that's the only way to get out of here."
"I HAVE AN IDEA!" Ryan exclaimed.
"What?"
"You can play dead."
"That's the dumbest idea that I have ever heard."
"Yea, Ryan," John agreed. "Don't speak."
"But it was a good idea."
"Yea," Olivia said with sarcasm. "If I were an idiot."
Donny walked over and sat next to Olivia. His tail swayed back and forth on the floor. He moved his head under Olivia's hand and started to purr.
Olivia started to pet him. "Are you full? I can't believe you ate that stuff. It didn't look too good, but you are an animal so it probably didn't taste bad to you."
"If we could get out of here," John said, "captain, how would we get off this planet? I mean the Black Velvet's still on Brass."
"I was thinking about that earlier. It's been four long years, someone probably took it for their own reason."
"Yea. But what if it's still there? I mean no one would be able to drive it without Donny on the ship."
"Good point, John." Olivia looked at Donny. "Without him there's no energy for the ship. You're not going to leave mommy now are you, Donny?"
Donny purred as Olivia kept rubbing his fur.
"Good boy, Donny."
Gregory and Jason walked into check on the pirates. "Daniel said that one of the older pirates passed on," Gregory told Jason. "We need to get him out of his cell so that way we can burry him and we have an extra cell for other pirates."
"Gregory," John said.
Gregory didn't answer.
"Gregory," he said again, kind of mad.
Gregory didn't reply.
"GREGORY!" John was ticked off.
Gregory stopped and turned to face his brother. "I don't talk to pirates," he finally answered.
"What do you mean you don't talk to pirates?" John asked, really ticked. "You talked to Zelda and Ben. Like Ben, I'm your brother and Zelda's not even related to us."
"I had to talk to them, I didn't want to but I did.... I had to."
"Had to?" Olivia asked. "So you were forced to talk to them."
Gregory turned to face Olivia. "Yes.... I was."
"So why are you talking to us now?"
"Never mind." Gregory started to walk away. "Come on, Jason."
Jason followed Gregory. "Yes, sir."
Gregory and Jason disappeared.
"Good," Olivia said. "They're gone."
John moved away from the celll door and leaned against a wall. "I can't
