Hey guys, so this is something I just randomly cam up with. It's a little unpolished but I just wanted to update it and if you guys like it enough I might continue it. So this story really depends on what you guys think. You like it, I write it. You don't like it, I'll put it aside.

Anyways, have a read and if you like it tell and I'll see what I'll do, okay? :)

Enjoy!

The handsome brunet grinned as he spotted the walls of the watchtower in the distance. The fog made it hard to see but he'd been through much worse than some puny fog for far less. This mission was bigger. The loot was far greater than anything he'd ever gotten his hands on before.

"What do you see, Captain?" A rough voice called out and the brunet looked down from his spot up on the mast.

He grabbed a hold of the one of the ropes bound to the sail and swiftly slid down it and landed with a thud on the wooden deck. "I see what's going to make us rich, men." James said. "Y'all get ready and do try and have fun." He said and patted the closest man on the cheek roughly. The men cheered and scattered quickly, shouting random orders around and waving clubs, swords and hands in the air.

The Captain on the ship chuckled lowly and walked with experienced sea legs up to the ship's rudder wheel and shoved the man standing by it aside. "C-Captain." The man stuttered. "W-What are you doing?" he asked when the brunet turned the wheel starboard and the ship almost heeled over. "Captain!"

"I'm taking this beauty for a shortcut." James said, bracing himself. "Drop the anchor!" He yelled and various sailors followed his orders and the anchor fell with a loud splash into the water and the boat came to a stop.

James grinned once more and jumped up on the railing in front of the rudder wheel. "Orders, Captain?" The small yet muscular latino next to him asked and looked up at him.

"My orders?" James asked and turned to his crew and smiled wickedly. "Go and have fun." He said with a shrug of his shoulders and a sly smile on his lips.

Another wave of cheers before the crew got into the boats and were of at insane speed towards the docks. The Captain of the ship sighed happily and looked up at the cliff above himself and the fortress towering on top of it, illuminated by the moonlight.

"Not you." He said and stopped his latino friend. "We have some climbing to do." he said and smirked.

"That's enough for tonight, Logan." The young blond said softly and smiled at the servant running about in the room. "The daylight is since long gone and we both know that you and I both should be in bed." Kendall said.

The short brunet smiled shyly and nodded his head. "Y-Yes, my prince." He said reverently and bowed his head.

"How many times have I told you to call me by my name?" The prince sighed but smiled. He got up from the chair he sat on and put the book he held away and walked up to his servant, placing a pale hand upon his shoulder. "It's Kendall."

"O-Of course. I-I'm sorry, Kendall." Logan blurted out and looked embarrassed. "I always forget." He said and smiled nervously. Kendall chuckled again and was just about to send the brunet away to his own room when the door swung open.

"My prince! My prince!" A solider in silvery armor with a blue sheath called out. "My prince, the city is under attack." He announced breathlessly and tried to catch his lost breath. "Your father has ordered for me to-"

A loud crash interrupted the soldier and he cursed silently. "Who is attacking?" Kendall asked and pushed Logan in behind himself. The soldier – that had his eyes on the hallway outside – turned to look at the blond prince.

"Pirates, my prince." He said.

Kendall's bottle greet eyes widened and he quickly grabbed his servant by the arm. "My sister." Kendall said. "Go to my sister and keep her safe. Logan and I will seek refugee in the library, once you've found my sister take her to mother's room. They will both be safe there."

"My prince, I must insist that you come with me." The soldier said. The blond shook his head.

"I can manage on my own." he said. "My sister is more important." He said sternly. "Now go!" He ordered and the soldier nodded before hurrying out the room. Kendall immediately turned to his servant and looked him in the eyes. "Logan, look at me." He ordered and the small brunet did as told.

His eyes were darting over the prince's face and he was trembling terribly. "Y-Yes, my prince?" he squeaked.

"You have to do as I say now." Kendall said. "Follow me and whatever you do do not fall behind and do not stop until I say so." He said sternly. Logan nodded and Kendall let go of him. "Don't stop for anything." He repeated and got another nod from the servant before they both made their way out of the room and hurried through the long hallways.

"They're trying to get in through the gates! They've almost reached the walls!", "God, have mercy!", "Barricade the hallway, do not let those pirate scums in!"

"Come on." Kendall said and hurried on his steps, jogging through the wide corridors and frantically looking around while doing so. His blue velvet robe billowed softly as he ran faster and the white cotton shirt he had under it started to stick to his skin that was producing a thin layer of sweat to cover his chest.

The brunet boy following him squeaked when another crash was heard and Kendall reached back and grabbed a hold of the servant's arm and yanked him forward.

"Don't fall behind." He reminded the servant before letting him go once more and then hurrying up the stone staircase. "F-Father!" He called when he spotted the man with his sword drawn and fierce look on his aged face. "Father, what is going on?" The prince asked.

"The fortress is under attack, son." The king grumbled and cursed silently, hearing the sounds of cannons. "You better get yourself to safety."

"But what about you?" Kendall asked worriedly. His father laughed, a warm and loud laugh that made the blond prince smile.

"Son, I've guarded this fortress from pirates since I took my first steps. Those blasted pirates are not taking one step in my fortress without facing certain death." He promised and patted Kendall's shoulder. The blond smiled and nodded.

"Be careful, father." He said before turning his head. "Come on, Logan." He said before continuing up to the next floor and running over to the library and running inside, followed closely by the short brunet.

"M-My prince." Logan squeaked and helped the prince barricade the door with the bookshelf closest to it. The both panted slightly and backed away from the door.

A quiet sighing made them both swirl around. "That looked awfully heavy." The tall man sitting by the large fireplace said and shook his head. The feather on his hat swayed back and forth and he chuckled lowly.

"I-It's a p-pirate!" Logan whined and Kendall once again pushed the smaller boy behind himself.

"Your friend's awfully good at pointing out the obvious." James said and eyed the gun he held in his hand. It shone golden and bright in the light the fireplace provided. He got up from the comfortable seat and tapped the armrest with his gun. "Comfy chair." He said and smiled. "I get it why everyone wants to a royalty. The seats are amazing." James said.

Kendall stayed silent and glared at the pirate while holding one of his arms out in front of Logan, as if to protect him. The small servant on the other hand knew it should really be the other way around. He should be the one protecting the prince.

"What? Got nothing to say, Blondie?" The brunet pirate said and looked amused. "I was expecting a warm welcoming. Good food, needy wenches and music for my arrival!" He said and swung his left hand around gesturing out the window. "I suppose cannon fire works too." He said and grinned while approaching the blond.

Logan squeaked again and curled up but Kendall didn't move. He kept his defiant look right on James and his breathing was slow though his chest heaved.

"Are you mute, Blondie? Or are my good looks just blowing you away?" James asked with a smirk and let the nozzle of his gun rest on Kendall's chest. The prince's glare intensified as his face slowly turned red. James chuckled lowly and let his pistol slowly slide down before stopping just at the blond's abdomen.

Again, Kendall stayed still and silent so the handsome brunet turned to the small servant. "No!" Logan squeaked when James walked right past Kendall towards him.

"Don't touch him." Kendall gritted out and took a step in front of James. They were close. The prince was shorter than James and his nose was just barely an inch away from the pirate's chin. James smirked down at him.

"Of course not." He said and backed off before snapping his fingers and from what seemed to be nowhere another pirate appeared. Kendall eyed the latino. He was a little shorter, muscular and had two big brown eyes, eying him curiously. "Carlos, would you be so kind to get some light in here? It's awfully dark." The handsome brunet said.

"Ay, Captain!" Carlos said and turned on his heels and disappeared into the dark.

"As for you, my prince." James said and grabbed a hold of Kendall's wrist and yanked him forward. "You're coming with me." He said and grinned before shoving the blond down onto the floor.

Kendall groaned when he landed on his stomach and yelped a bit when his hands were pulled behind his back and tied back with something cold and felt suspiciously much like metal. "N-Ngh." He choked out and struggled against his restraints.

"K-Kendall!" Logan whined and attempted to help but got a shove in the chest and flew backwards, landing painfully on the floor.

"Kendall." James nearly purred. "I can work with that." He murmured into the blond's ear and yanked the prince up onto his feet. For once Kendall's glare wasn't holding. He was scared. Scared of what the stranger was going to do.

In the corner of his eyes he could see the fire suddenly bursting out of the fireplace and spreading to the bookshelves surrounding it. The books quickly caught on fire and it didn't take long for the entire east wall to be a burning inferno.

"N-No." Kendall managed to gasp before he was yanked backwards and a muscular arm was wrapped around his middle, picking him up with ease. His breath hitched and he realized what was going on.

He was being kidnapped.

"This is crazy!" The small latino said and jumped up on the windowsill. The man holding Kendall in a tight grip chuckled. "What about the little guy?"

Kendall's eyes widened and he turned his head to look over to where Logan was lying on the floor. "Logan!" He shouted. James shook his head.

"Nah, I got what I came for." He said and Carlos shrugged before grabbing the rope and sliding down it and then jumping down onto the ship. Kendall gulped and tried to struggle. He'd rather burn to death than go with the pirates. "Easy, Blondie." The man holding him murmured.

"L-Let me go!" Kendall shouted.

"No can do." James said and climbed out the window and dragged Kendall after him. James wrapped the rope around his right wrist a few laps before tightening his grip around the blond's waist and bracing his feet against the cliff wall.

The blond gasped loudly when James kicked them outwards and loosened his grip on the rope before once again grasping it tightly, making them slide down a little bit before stopping and then repeating the same thing.

Once they had landed on the deck of the ship Kendall was near paralyzed. James dunked his hand on his back and laughed loudly. "Wasn't that fun, Blondie?" he asked. "Hey! Ty! Call the others in! Time to get going!" He shouted.

"Ay, ay, Captain!" One of the crew members replied before swinging down from the mast and disappearing out of sight. The handsome brunet chuckled lowly before turning to Kendall and gesturing around on the ship.

"Welcome to the Tainted Diamond." he said.

Soo... what did you guys think? I'd love to hear all about it in a review! :)
