What's a pirate crew to do when they accidentally get attached to the person they've kidnapped? A whole lot of shenanigans, that's what.

In the land of Dramda, off the coast of Ismit, there sails a crew known to be the most ruthless and willing to do anything for money. Contracted to kidnap the princess of Ismit by their greatest enemy, they care little for the war this will start and only about getting paid.

The princess, however...might have other plans.

~ Notes

Lisa woke with a very unlady like groan some time later. Her head pounding as she tried to sit up and reorient to her current situation. As she sat up her eyes still closed the one hand not holding her head, brushed the hay when she pushed herself upright. Her eyes sprung open and she swatted at her face and hair where even more of the hay was stuck. What'd she do fall asleep in the barn and not remember it? She blinked.

She blinked again.

"Who the heck are you and where am I?" She blurted out crossly to the two guards standing around her, her voice like fire. She stood up brushing her skirts off from the remainder of the hay still sticking to her from her sleep and looked around her surroundings;making no attempt to move except on the spot of course. Cave, cave, and more cave. boooorrrrrrring. She scowled around her and than plopped back down into the hay, hitching her skirt up so that she could sit cross legged to await a response to her questions. With a raised eyebrow she realized she was in her horseback riding skirts. No wonder it'd been so easy to plop down. What happened again? She held her chin up with one hand as she thought back, resting the elbow on her knee.

Lisa rolled her eyes when someone finally approached her to talk. 'Good morning beautiful' Ugh, doesn't any guy ever have anything more interesting to say than that. "These idiots don't know how to talk but you clearly do. Where am I and who the heck are you?" She rested her elbow on her knee and propped her chin up to stare up at man who'd walked over and started talking. Headband, loose shirt and pants. Pirate. Clearly a pirate. She sighed deeply and watched him, waiting for an answer.
It was pretty obvious that the where was a cave, and than she wasn't likely to get an answer of the who beyond what she could already guessed by what the two guards and the speaker looked like. But get someone talking and maybe she'd find out at least a little bit more. Like how she had wound up in the cave in the first place. She had racked her brain while the one guard had run off but she was coming up blank, she barely even remembered going out for a ride that morning.
It had only been that morning right?

"Cave, on an island, three hours from the coast. Yeah that is so incredibly helpful." She rolled her eyes and stood up absently dusting the hay she'd been carelessly tossed in from the back of her skirts. Pointedly ignoring the wink, "But I'll take that as a challenge, point me in the direction of shore and I'll just go for a nice swim." She of course had no intention of actually going for a swim, three hours in unidentified waters with no sense of directions was bound to turn into an entire day and her death. But she brushed past him and headed for the mouth of the cave anyways.

Just to needle him back for the flirting she called over her shoulder, "First mate huh? I'd watch out because your mistress clearly is not being faithful." Yup, he had just confirmed her suspicions, she had been abducted by pirates when she was horseback riding. "Nice to meet you pirate. I'll see you around." She waved her hand casually. Really, she was just looking to see what kind of reaction she could get out of these pirates. She was growing very bored.

Lisa raised a single eyebrow at the pirates as they very obviously drew weapons with jumpy nerves. But she kept right on walking towards them without missing a beat in her pace. When she heard the first mates foot steps coming up behind her she made a sudden movement at the closest pirate and yelled "AHHH" before laughing and continuing on her way. "Oh I'm sure you would be delighted to see me swim as long as I wasn't drowning and costing you what I'm sure is a lousy fortune that you're hoping to get off my kidnapping. But since you offered oh so kindly after I asked than point me where shore is and I'll take the quicker route and go the opposite direction."
She eyed the trees around them nervously, oh yes it would definitely be the quicker route. She wouldn't make it far in this god awful riding skirt she was stuck in, it would sink like a brick as soon as it got wet, pulling her down with it, not to mention if she even made it to shore through the trees when most of them like oked exactly alike. As beautiful as they were, not exactly very helpful.

Lisa screamed and showed the first signs of being a "typical princess" the moment her feet left the ground. She gripped the closest thing to her in a death grip. Which happened to be Zak. Her arms went tight around his neck as she clung for dear life.
Sure heights weren't a problem for her... As long as her feet were touching something. All the fight in her attitude left in her terror as she started shaking from the irrational fear of being lifted and in someone else's control.

(again, super sorry this took so long!)
When Lisa's feet touched the ground ungracefully she took a sharp intake of breath and tried to steady her beating heart. Slowly coming out of the terror and releasing Zakal's neck. "Oh, that's good." She turned slowly and looked out at the water and pointed vaguely with a wave of her hand, "Shore is that way right?" Her voice still sounded shaky and far away, and the proof that she hadn't quite recovered from her terror came only a few moments later as she gave a giddy "Okay than," took two steps towards the water and had her legs turn to jelly underneath her as she sat hard in the sandy beach.

"I think I'll just go wherever you're heading after all. I'll just sit here for a bit while I recover though if you don't mind."

As she laid back, not caring that her hair was getting coated in the sand as she just wanted to appreciate the solid ground beneath her and being in control of her own body again she added as an afterthought, "Oh, and don't call me highness. It's such a ridiculous title."

"pssh" She scoffed weakly, still a slight tremor clear in her voice, "don't even know who you're kidnapping." She closed her eyes for a few moments to let the terror pass completely and get her breathing finally under control.
Opening them she stared up at the clouds and enjoyed the sight of them moving overhead. Besides getting lifted up, she was actually... enjoying this. No one was screaming at her to be proper. To keep her dress clean. To stand straight. "My name is Lisa." She said finally, and stood up to look at him. "So where are we going first mate?" Her eyes twinkled with joy at the little rebellion she'd put into the question to show it was annoying to be referred to as only titles.

(I hope I'm reading this correctly that Kelmin is another nation xD and as a princess she would know that. Sorry if it's wrong)

"Kelmin!?" She choked out in shock before she could stop herself. She closed her eyes and let out a slow long breath. Finally she smiled brightly opening her eyes once more, "well of course, a strong pirate against a proper princess never allowed to do anything for herself off in a strange land. Of course you haven't been bested." She paused, trying not to sigh and still put at much enthusiasm into her speech, "well off to camp than shall we."

Internally she was groaning. Why Kelmin, their delegates were always so stuffy. Granted she hated most everyone that came to court. She'd have to figure out some way to divert their plans of reaching Kelmin. Her eyes fell on the possible storm Clouds in the distance, muttering under her breath her mind began to whirl, "hmmmmmm, maybe..."
