Ryoko's Life by Amber Riel (reading well .TXT) 📕

looked around at the dark gray sky. She could tell that the people who lived on the planet were use to that kind of weather, because she could see them walking around getting ready for a party and they didn't seem to worry about the tornado, which would be forming. She turned toward her crew and knew that it wouldn't be safe to have everyone running around. The tornado wouldn't do anything to the ship because of the fact that the tornadoes on the planet didn't go anywhere near the water. “Zelda, Robbie, you two with me. Jackson, Olivia, and Zack, I want the three of you to stay on the ship with Winter. I can't have anyone in danger. Okay.”
“Alright,” they all agreed.
“Zelda, Robbie, I need you two to stick with me at all times. This planet is really unsafe.”
“Okay,” Zelda said.
“Yes, captain,” Robbie agreed.
“Good. Now, come on.” Ryoko left the ship as Zelda and Robbie followed her. Twister

Ryoko, Zelda, and Robbie walked around the planet and Rayoko noticed that a tornado was forming. They had to get to a safe place. "What planet are we on, captain?" Robbie asked.
Ryoko quickly glanced over at him then back to the tornado which had appeared. "Twister.... Now, come on you two. We need to get some where's....."
"You three must be new here," a boy with grayish, tornado color hair said, walking over to them. He looked to be about fifteen. He smiled at them. "I'm Christian."
Zelda looked over and for the first time in her life she seen a tornado. Her heart started pounding in fear. She froze up.
Robbie grabbed her hand to help her calm down. "It'll be okay."
"You three arrived in time for the party."
"Party?" Ryoko asked.
"Yea. We have one every time a tornado appears. Come on."
"But....."
"It'll be fun." Christian started to walk off.
Ryoko decided to follow and nodded for Robbie to help Zelda move and relax her. Ryoko took a deep breath. "Twistyins are so strange," she whispered to herself.

                         ******
Christian had walked into a stadium followed by Ryoko and her two shipmates. Christian seemed to be a smart guy and Ryoko knew that Twistyins were well known as the people who were very clever and good to have on a pirate ship, but she didn't understand why they liked to throw parties during a dangerous time.
"So, why are you three here?" Christian asked.
"We're looking for shipmates. I'm Captain Ryoko. The other girl is my first mate, Zelda, and the boy is our other shipmate, Robbie. There's three more on the ship."
"Hm.... Pirates I assume."
Ryoko kind of nodded.
"I could join.... My parents would be proud."
"What?"
"Each of them are pirates themselves. My father is Captain One-Eyed Nick and my mother is his first mate. They have me stay on the planet with my aunt and uncle until they can visit. They want me to join a pirate crew too. Can you let me join?"
Ryoko was surprised. Everyone else were orphans, while Christian was the first one who was actually a child of two pirates. She smiled and nodded. "You're in. Do you need to talk to your aunt and uncle?"
"No. They know the plan and they'll figure it out when I don't show up."
"Good."

Russel walked into the castle. He had just arrived back on Blaze in his black, flying, small car. He didn't bother to get something to eat. He needed to tell Jim that Artic was dead and they didn't have to worry about the ice king ruining their plans.


Leo was outside, standing at the beginning of the woods, looking out at the town on the planet he called home. Elliot and Mike made their way over over to the man. Everything was peaceful to him, until he seen them walking over toward him. "What do you two want?"
"Well, we were wondering.... How would you react if...." Elliot started to ask, afraid of what Leo would do to them. "Mike, why don't you ask?"
"Man, you said that you would ask."
Leo looked at them.
"I changed my mind.... You tell him."
"No, Elliot. He's going....."
Leo was starting to grow angry at the two of them. They were aggrovating him.
"Just tell him, Mike."
"No---"
"WHAT HAPPENED?!" Leo exploded. He was annoyed that they weren't telling him anything. "I DON'T CARE WHICH ONE OF YOU TELL.... WHAT HAPPENED?!"
Elliot and Mike leaned back, afraid of what Leo would do. They could see that his temper was rising. Everything was peaceful for Leo until the two idiots showed up.
"We ran into Ryoko's crew on Connie and we kind of...." Elliot started to say, fear showing in his eyes.
"They got away, boss," Mike finished.
Leo was beyond ticked off. There were no words to describe how furious the man was. "YOU WHAT?!"
"They got away," Elliot cried, falling down on his knees.
Leo kicked Elliot's chest, knocking Elliot on his back. "You two are idiots. I should kill you two myself, but I'm not." He started to walk away. "You two stay here. I don't want either of you to follow me."
"Okay, boss," Mike replied. He went to help Elliot up, but Elliot looked like he was in some kind of hurtful daze.


Ryoko had Christian follow her into a small room on the second floor on the ship. The room looked like a little office. It was empty except for the light which was hanging from the ceiling. "You think that you can use this as a little office or lab or something?" Ryoko asked.
Christian looked around. "Yea. This will be good. Captain?"
"Yea."
"That guy, Jackson, who you introduced me to once we got on deck. Do you like him?"
"What? You too? No.... I thought that you were going to be different." Ryoko walked away kind of mad.

                        *****
Jackson walked over to Zelda, Robbie, and Zack. He noticed that they were having a chugging contest with their rum. He laughed.
"I'm done," Zelda said, holding the empty bottle upside down.
Robbie and Zack each spit out what they had in their mouths.
"WHAT?! WE WERE BEAT BY A GIRL!" Zack exclaimed.
Zelda and Jackson couldn't help but laugh.
"Zelda, can I talk to you for a minute?" Jackson asked.
"Sure. Just let me gloat first." Zelda smiled. "You two lost to a girl. Haha. I win. I beat you two. Now, when I come back, I expect two bottles of rum from each of you." She turned to face Jackson. "Let's go."
"We lost to a girl," Robbie said as he watched Zelda and Jackson walk off.


Jackson made sure that no one was around before saying anything that he didn't want them to hear. "Do you really believe that Ryoko likes me?" he asked.
Zelda nodded.
Jackson smiled. "Good. Cause I really like her too, but I don't know how to tell her."
"Well, don't look at me. I'm not cupid.... I'm a pirate."
Jackson kind of laughed as he shook his head. "You're her cousin, do you know what she likes?"
Zelda had to think.  "I know.  Candy."                                    "What kind of candy?"                                                           Zelda started randomly laughing. She didn't answer the question which kind of confused him.
"What kind? And what's so funny?"
"I beat two guys at chugging rum."
Jackson was confused he had no idea what that had to deal with anything.
"I'm going to see if those two boys have my rum yet." Zelda left without answering Jackson's question.
Jackson stood there in confusion.

Christian's New Nickname

Ryoko was debating on which planet to go to next. She needed to get just one more shipmate then she was planning to go back to Pluto and sneak out other pirates, who the cops had captured. Her fear now was that Leo and Russel were after her and her crew. She sat behind her desk, thinking. Her father and grandfather were the two bounty hunters who were the main threat to her and her crew. She didn't care what happened to her but she didn't want anything to happen to the others.
There was a knock on the door. Ryoko looked up from her desk. "COME IN!"
The door opened and Jackson walked into the room. "Captain?"
Ryoko rolled her eyes. She didn't want to deal with that boy. Not now. "What do you want, Jackson?"
"Do you...."
"Captain Ryoko," Olivia said, walking into the room, cutting off Jackson, "Zack wanted to know what planet you wanted him to drive to?"
"Right now.... I don't care where.... Which ever planet is closest...."
"Okay." Olivia looked over at Jackson and smiled at him. "Hello, Jackson."
"Hey, Olivia." Jackson returned the smile.
Olivia walked out of the room.
"Now, what did you want?" Ryoko asked Jackson, raising an eyebrow.
"Um.... You know what.... I can see that you're busy so I'm just going to leave you alone."
Ryoko looked at Jackson like he was crazy and just watched as he left the room and closed the door.


Will walked along the castle, feeling anger toward his sister and parents. He hoped that the worst thing could happen to them. He remembered all of the cruel things that they done, especially Magma. He hated them all and hoped for their deaths to be in vain. He had a plan to have all the bounty hunters under his control. He planned to kill anyone from pirates to cops. He didn't care if they worked under him, he would have them killed for no reason. "I'll show them. I'll show them all," he told himself, an evil smile grew on his face.


Christian was in the little room, which Ryoko had shown him. He was working on an experiment. He was trying to see if he could make some kind of weapon that would stop
