Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

"I am not doubting 'Who knows who' as his information is rarely incorrect. All I am just saying is that sometimes there are things the eyes need to see to ascertain the truth" Captain Crimson eye replied "And if my assumptions are wrong, then treat him like every no-named pirate on his way out. Afterall, we have no room for accommodation for a bastard prince".

"Alright Captain" Jerry responded, nodding his head in understanding.

Meanwhile, Captain Crimson-eye walked down from the upper deck and headed towards his room.

"Prince Wyatt, I hope that you prove me right and show me that there is something interesting hidden beneath the eye" He muttered under his breath.

Jerry looked at his Captain walking away before turning his attention back to the penance boat slowly making its way toward their ship.

'I hope you are right Captain' Jerry thought.

…....

Meanwhile, on the Penance boat, Knight Camile looked at Mad John and said "Can't you row any faster?".

Mad John had no other choice than to respond by pushing the peddle faster.

Although he knew that the reason he was still alive was all because only he could manage the ship properly and no one else could, but there was no saying when this woman might turn insane and change her mind about sparing his life by throwing him into the ocean right now.

Ever since Prince Wyatt's death, out of his 10 other crew-mates, only two have been thrown into the sea in the last three days.

She treated their lives like a sack of potatoes, and they couldn't retaliate nor demand justice for the unfairness they have suffered under her hands.

But at the end of the day, even if they did, nobody would listen to their pleas or cries because they were sea slaves, and the only thing a sea slave must know how to do is to take orders and shut up.

"Do you remember what I told you to say if they ask about the Prince?" Knight Camille said.

"Yes" Mad John nodded his head "If they ask about Prince Wyatt and why he didn't come along, I would say that the Prince is dead, and deep in the belly of a Tiger whale while I wipe my watering eyes and curse his existence for the abuse and indignation I and the other crewmen have suffered under him".

"While you suddenly discipline me, defending Prince Wyatt's honour and his name like a good knight that h...….".

"Shut up!! Did I ask you to tell me what I am supposed to do" Knight Camille said, interrupting Mad John's words as she looked at him in annoyance.

"You should be lucky that I can still find some usefulness out of you if not I would have thrown you into the sea to meet with your captain and fellow crewmen. Who knows if you guys are even smart enough to make it to the afterlife since you might very well sink and rot at the bottom of the ocean".

"Sorry, it was my mistake Knight Camille" Mad John responded, bowing his head as he apologised while continuously rolling the boat to their destination.

"You should save that miserable excuse for yourself after getting us lost in the middle of the ocean. What kind of sailing master are you anyway?.

"I am sorry about that Knight Camille, but Prince Wyatt had kept the map in his room after he had previously collected it from me. And now, after the Tiger whale's incursion, I couldn't find it in his room any longer and could only guess that it might have fallen into the sea" Mad John replied.

"Humph!!! Even in death, he is still giving me problems" Knight Camille sighed tiredly as she looked at the large ship that they were closely approaching.

"Anyway, whatever you do, don't do anything that would make Captain Crimson eye angry. Lady Clara said that although he might be calm and calculative underneath, all that is needed to send him spiralling down into rage and madness is just a single push. So we have to choose our words wisely" She added.

"I might be the knight of a great empire, but on this waters, the titles and territories belong to the Pirates".

Mad John nodded his head in understanding and said "But still, I don't think that we should tell Captain Crimson eye about the condition of the Prince".

Looking at the man sitting opposite him with her eyes narrowed at him, Knight Camille said "And why is that?".

Seeing the gaze which she looked at him with as though she was threatening him to say something stupid, Mad John sucked in and released a deep refreshing breath of fresh air to calm his erratic beating heart while he steeled his gaze together in the process.

"According to the Pirate code Rule 5, dash 1, Any ship without a captain must find one before 5 days. Dash 2 -Any ship that stays 5 days without a captain can be claimed by another pirate, depending on his rank, strength and capabilities. Dash 3…" He said.

"Will you get to the point!!" Knight Camille said impatiently.

Nodding his head in understanding as Mad John continued " Pirate code Rule 5 Dash 5, As long as the Pirate of a ship is dead, every other rule is considered void as long as there is a known Pirate nearby strong enough, both in strength and authority to claim that ship as his own".

"What kind of absurd rule is that? So you are saying that we shouldn't tell him anything about the Prince while asking for help if not, we risk the ship being conquered and getting taken?" Knight Camille said as she furrowed her brows.

"It's not just a rule Knight Camille, it's the Pirate code. And yes, in order not to stir up some unnecessary drama, we don't need to mention Prince Wyatt's death to Captain Crimson eye" Mad John responded.

"But why did Lady Clara not tell me anything like this when discussing the plan with her?".
