would never put myself in that kind of danger."
Will smiled. "That's because you're not as evil as me."
"Well, I'm not dumb either."
Will gave Magma an evil look. "Just because I'm willing to put myself in danger doesn't mean that I'm dumb."
Russel and Leo had walked into the room by this time.
"I'm going to destroy the universe so that way I can kill all of the space pirates, the space police, the ice princesses, the bounty hunters, and you."
Magma was shocked. "Me? But I'm your sister. Why do you want me dead?"
"Because.... I'm tired of listening to someone who doesn't know what she's doing."
"I can't believe that you said that."
Will stood up. "It's true. Russel, Leo, come with me."
Will, Russel, and Leo left the room. Magma sat down. She was thinking about what just happened. Kids & Their Imagination

Larry and Max were in the captain's office. Max was laying down and Larry was petting him. Ryoko appeared. Max didn't bother to growl at her like he had before. Larry could see the spirit as well. She had her back to Larry and Max.
"Hi, I'm Larry. Who are you?"
Ryoko turned around, shocked. "He can't see me.... Or can he?" she asked herself, confused. "Can you see me?" she asked Larry.
Larry nodded. "Yea. Who are you?"
"I'm Ryoko," she introduced herself. She didn't want to be rude, seeing that the kid could see her and asked her a smiple question. "Zelda's cousin.... Are you related to anyone on this ship?"
"Yea. Ben. He's my brother."
"Oh." Ryoko puased. "Do you happen to know where Zelda is?"
"She was out on the deck talking on to Ben."
"Oh."
"You're pretty."
Ryoko smiled. "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Ben and Zelda walked into the room. Zelda noticed Ryoko, but Ben had no clue the ghost was there.
"I think that Ben and...."
"Larry, who are you talking to?" Ben asked.
Larry pointed to Ryoko. "I'm talking to her."
"But there's...."
Zelda pretended to laugh. "Kids and their imaginations, huh? I think it's cute." She decided to change the subject. "Larry boy, are you hungry?"
Larry nodded.
"Okay. Benjamin, go and get your brother something to eat. I'll meet you two in the kitchen later okay?"
"Okay. Come on, Larry."
Ben and Larry left the room. Zelda closed the door so she could talk to the ghost herself.
"That's weird," Ryoko said.
"What?"
"That kid seen me."
"What? He shouldn't be able to see you?"
"No.... If I wanted him to see me then I would of but he still saw me even though I didn't want him to see me."
"Hmmm.... Maybe because kids his age still have imaginary friends."
"Good point."
"So what do you need to talk to me about?"
"I got Olivia to change her mind about working with you. Now, you and your crew need to go and break her and her crew out of jail. Okay, Zelda."
"Okay."
"Good. Now, I have to go." Ryoko disappeared as fast as she had appeared.

Busting Olivia's Crew Out of Jail

Zelda and Ben were on the deck. They looked in the direction of the jail house. "I want you to gather the crew...." she started to say. "We're going to go bust Olivia and her crew out of jail."
"Yes, Zelda. But who's going to stay and keep an eye on Larry?"
"Good question." Zelda thought for a minute about who she could have stay. "Peter Pan."
"Okay."


Olivia was sitting on her bed. John was at the cell door with both hands hanging out of the bars. "Captain, are you mad at me for earlier, when I said that you were acting like Zelda?" he asked.
"No."
"Okay. Good."
Zelda and her crew finally arrived.
Olivia looked at them. "FINALLY!"
"Shhh.... No one knows that we're here," Zelda whispered.
"Okay," Olivia whispered as well.
"Is everyone ready?" Zelda asked her crew.
"Yes," Ben answered.
"Okay, good. Now, everyone locked behind the bars might want to step back." Zelda and her crew took their swords and broke the bars. "You all are free now."
"What about me?" Ryan asked, still locked up.
"Oh yea. Peter Pan isn't here." Zelda walked over to Ryan's cell and set him free.
Ryan walked over to her and hugged her. "I knew that you'd come to save me, my sweet, darling angel.... I love you, too."
Zelda pulled away from the hug. "I'm taken."
Ryan was disappointed. "But.... You said...."
"I lied.... Now, let's go."
Ryan stood there and started to cry. Everyone else started to leave. Olivia walked over to Ryan, grabbed his arm, and started dragging him.


They were outside. They started to sneak out, when the alarm went off. Dogs started barking and they heard Gregory's voice in the distance.
"HURRY UP, GUYS!" Zelda yelled. "We have to go before they come over here."
Everyone, but Ryan, were on the opposite side of the fence. Gregory's voice sounded closer and the barking dogs weren't far behind.
"COME ON, RYAN!" Olivia exclaimed, ticked off. "I swear that if you're not over here in five minutes, I'll...."
Gregory was a few feet away. "STOP THERE, PIRATE!" he yelled to Ryan.
Olivia was really furious. "RYAN, GET OVER HERE NOW!"
Ryan was afraid. "Okay, captain." He arrived on the other side.
They started running back to the ship, when Gregory arrived at the fence. "Man.... I can't believe this," he told himself, ticked off.

Trying to Compromise

Zelda had Peter bring the ship back to space, after everyone was on board.


Zelda and Olivia were in the captain's office trying to debate on who would be sleeping were. Niether of them agreed with each other. "What are we going to do about sleeping?" Olivia asked.
"That's easy." Zelda took off her shoes but kept her socks on. "You and your panther get the floor, and me and my wolf get the bed."
"That's not right."
"Yes it is."
"No it's not."
"Yes it is."
"NO IT'S NOT!"
"YES IT IS! It's my ship and I say what goes."
"I don't care.... If this were a house then I'd be your guest and that means that I get the bed."
Zelda laughed. "Well, guess what? This isn't a house, it's a ship, and you're not my guest, you're my enemy. I have to work with you because of my dead cousin."
"You think this is fun for me.... I'd rather be stuck in that jail cell then to be here."
"You want a room for yourself then you can stay in the wine celler. Besides, you won't drink any of the rum."
"Why don't you stay in the wine celler?"
"Because I don't want to."
"Why not? Are you scared to stay down there?" Olivia asked. She knew that Zelda was afraid of the dark and the wine celler really didn't have much light.
"No," Zelda said. She was afraid of the dark but didn't understand why. It had to have been something dealing with her childhood which she didn't remember or didn't want to remember.
"Why not?"
Zelda thought about Ben and forgot about her fear of the darkness. "Because I have shipmates that might need to talk to me about something and there's a kid, who might want to talk to me as well that you'll scare the crap out of."
"I have shipmates too you know."
"I can tell them where you are."
Olivia dropped her mouth. "I can do the same thing."
Someone knocked on the door.
"COME IN!" Zelda exclaimed.
Larry walked into the room. "Zelda?"
"Yea."
"There's no where's for me to sleep."
"Oh. I forgot.... Larry boy, I'm sure that your brother, Benjamin, wouldn't mind if you sleep on his bed. As a matter of fact send him up here. Okay."
"Okay." Larry left.
"Why does he have to send one of your shipmates?"
"Because he knows everyone on my crew."
"So," Olivia simply said.
"So? Are you back talking to me now?"
Olivia gave Zelda a funny look. "What? All I said was so."
"Now, you're giving me lip."
"You're insane. I'm not even yelling at you. See this is why I hated working with you years ago."
Zelda didn't reply.
"Are you going to say anything?"
Zelda still didn't respond.
"Are you even listening to me?"
"Yea. I'm listening." Zelda stood up and walked over to Olivia. "And do you know what I'm hearing? Blah.... Blah.... Blah. That's what I'm hearing."
"You're a witch."
"I'm a witch? I'm a witch? I'm a witch? I'm not the one who killed your cousin.... You're the one who killed mine. There I'm not a witch, you are."
Olivia smiled. "I remember that day.... One of the best days ever."
Zelda walked over to the bed and sat down. "For you. You killed the only family that I had."
"So."
"There you go again. You don't care about anybody but yourself. No wonder why your shipmates are scared of you, if they do one thing wrong then you'll kill them. I don't think that's right."
"Who cares what you think? You're an idiot."
"I'm not an idiot."
"Yes you are."
"No I'm not. I'll admit that I act like an idiot, but I'm smarter than you think."
"Oh really."
"Yea."
Someone knocked on the door.
"That's Ben. COME IN!"
"Finally," Olivia whispered to herself, mad.
Ben walked into the room. "Sorry I'm late. Larry wanted me to tell him a story."
Zelda smiled. "That's okay."
Olivia rolled her eyes.
"So.... What's going on?" Ben asked.
"Zelda wants me to sleep in the wine celler, but I think that she needs to."
Zelda did the
