Space Pirates 3: Russel's Revenge by Amber Riel (librera reader txt) 📖

"I know." He decided to change the subject to something dealing with their future. "We're going to have three kids. I want to name the oldest boy, Ben Adam Skull Jr."
"Zelda leaned back in his arms. "Wow. We're not married yet and you're already talking about kids. Here, after the wedding, we can talk about kids." She leaned back against his chest. "How does that sound?"
"That's good."
Zelda was surprised at how Ben wanted kids. She figured that he would of waited 'til after they were married to say that, but she was wrong. She actually was a child at heart, having one would be a bad idea for her. She did like the idea though. Reason to Kill Will

Magma sat on her throne. She was the only one in the throne room. It was different without the bounty hunters around. She missed having people to order around. People were under her control. They were puppets and she was the puppetmaster. It was two quiet and she was kind of going insane from the silence.
"I should of been married by now," she told herself. "I can't rule this kindom alone. I can't do anything without freaking out. Will was right, I shouldn't be the one to rule." She realized that she could prove her brother wrong. She did a good job before Will was released from jail the first time and she could do it again. Will didn't know what he was talking about. "But you know what, I can rule no matter what. It doesn't matter, what my brother thinks. I can do this on my own and I don't need a man by my side. I'm going to show this planet, no this galaxy, no this universe, that I can rule. I'll take out the pirates starting with Zelda and her crew. I'll destroy them all." She started laughing, devilishly.
Russel walked in the room. He was followed by Leo.
Magma was shocked to see them. She wasn't excepting them to be out of jail all ready. "You're both back? How did you.... You two aren't suppose to be out until years from now."
"We got out for good behavior," Russel told Magma. "So did Will, Keaton, and Romano."
"So they released Will again?" Magma grew angry when Russel mentioned her brother. She didn't care about Keaton or Romano, but she was ticked off about the police letting Will free again.
"Yea, but he's going to be a good boy for now on."
Magma was confused. "So, he's not evil anymore?"
"No."
"Actually," Leo jumped in, "he told me that he was going to become a pirate."
"He told you that?"
"Yea. I don't know why he would tell me something like that. He knows that us bounty hunters hate pirates. He knows that we're after pirates. He also knows that we kill pirates if we get a hold of one. Despite all of this, he told me anyways."
"So, he's going to become a pirate?" Magma asked.
"Yes."
Magma smiled. "Good, now I have a reason to kill my brother."
Russel was shocked at Magma's remark. He didn't think that she had it in her to kill her own brother. "I didn't know that you wanted your brother dead."
"Oh yea. After he told me that he wanted me dead, I decided that I was going to kill him." Magma actually disowned Will as her brother. She was going to kill him along with the pirates.
Leo smiled. "Now, that's evil princess."
Magma stared out the window and imagined different ways which she could kill Will.

Forgetting the Pastor Again

Scott was helping Zelda and Ben prepare for the rehersal dinner. Zelda was setting plates on the table, and Scott set forks, knives, and spoons next to each plate.
Zelda was excited because in one more day, she was going to become Mrs. Ben Skull, and she enjoyed the thought.
"Captain, you look lovely tonight," Scott said, giving her a compliment.
Zelda gave him a funny look. She wasn't going to fall for his trick. "What do you want, Scotty?" she asked.
"All I said was that you look lovely." He couldn't believe that wasn't going to except the compliment. "Can't I give you a compliment without you thinking that I want something?"
Zelda rolled her eyes. She knew better than to believe a word that he said. He always did that and she never fell for it, well, she fell for it a couple of times, but that was when she was really drunk. "The only time, you give me a compliment, is when you want something bad. Well, you didn't do anything bad," she said, eyeing Scott, "that I know of, so you must want something."
Scott realized that Zelda was going to fall for his trick and decided to tell the truth. "Okay. Fine. I met this really hot girl and I was wondering if I can invite her to your wedding."
Zelda smiled and nodded. "I don't care. Just as long as she doesn't hog the rum."
Scott smiled. "Good. Because I already invited her anyways."
Zelda stopped smiling. She didn't understand how Scott asked if he could invite a girl to the wedding after he already invited her. "Ok-ay."
Ben walked over to Zelda and Scott. He placed his arm around Zelda. "Everything's ready. Everyone is here, except the pastor."
"Okay. So we're waiting for the pastor? What time did you tell the pastor to be here, Scotty?"
Scott's eyes grew wide. He knew that he was forgetting something. "He said that he had another rehersal to get to," he lied. "But he said that he was going to be at the wedding tomorrow."
"But, how are we going to reherse, if we don't have a pastor?"
Peter walked past them.
"Peter can do it," Scott offered, stopping Peter in his tracks.
Peter turned to face them. He was confused. He didn't know why his name was brought up. "Peter can do what?"
"Be the pastor just for tonight," Scott told him. "You'll be helping the captain and Ben to get ready for tomorrow."
"Okay."
Scott was glad that Peter agreed because that gave him more time to look for a pastor.
"Thanks, Peter Pan."
"No problem."
                                                 *****
Gregory, Alaska, and Larry were on Pluto. Larry was a head of Alaska and Gregory. They were walking on a dock. Alaska and Gregory were on a date. "I wish I could of got someone to watch Larry," Gregory told Alaska, "so that way it could of been the both of us." He felt like the kind of guy that had his younger brother go on his dates with him and he felt like Alaska would get mad at him for it.
"That's okay," Alaska reassured him. She didn't mind Larry being there. She understood that Gregory had to take care of Larry and himself. "I enjoyed having him around. He's almost as cute as you."
Gregory smiled. "That's true."
Larry walked over to them.
"Well," Alaska said, looking out at the beautiful sunset, "I better get going. Saphire will kill me if I'm late."
"Okay."
Alaska and Gregory shared a kiss.
Larry was grossed out by it. He wasn't into girls yet and found the idea of kissing them to be blah. Now, he did know, when a girl was pretty, he would say so. Alaska smiled at him and walked away.
Gregory watched Alaska leave. He was in love.
"Are you two going to get married?" Larry asked.
"I sure hope so."
"Good."
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Gregory asked, changing the subject.
"I WANT TO BE A PIRATE!" Larry exclaimed.
"What?" Gregory couldn't believe what Larry said. He couldn't believe that his youngest brother wanted to be a pirate. Anything, except for a pirate or bounty hunter.
"A pirate, like Ben and John."
"Why?"
"Because pirates rule."
Now, Gregory knew who's fault it was for his brother to decide to become a pirate. "Zelda," he told himself, mad.
Will arrived and walked over to them.
"What do you want, Prince Will?" Gregory asked, wondering why Will hadn't left with the bounty hunters.
"The four bounty hunters are planning to do something evil," Will warned. He wasn't smiling. His expression was warning Gregory about the bounty hunters along with his words.
"What four bounty hunters?" Gregory all ready knew the answer, but he wanted to see what Will's reply was going to be.
"Leo, Russel, and the two idiots."
"Oh." Gregory didn't know why Will was telling him that. He thought that Will would work with the bounty hunters. "I thought that you would join them," he admitted. "I guess I was wrong."
"Unlike them, I've changed. I think that you should tell Saphire and Alaska. They would probably like to know."
Gregory nodded.
Will left when he told Gregory about the bounty hunters plan. He had other plans in mind and he wanted to get off of the icy planet.

Gregory Warns the Ice Princesses

Saphire and Alaska were in throne room. They were talking and laughing like most sisters do. "How was your and Daniel's honeymoon?" Alaska asked.
"IT WAS GREAT!" Saphire took a sip of ice tea and smiled. "Way better than the wedding. NO pirates showed up at all."
Daniel and Jason walked in. Daniel walked over and placed his arm around his wife. "What are you two talking about?"
"The honeymoon."
"Oh."
Gregory hurried into the room, followed by Larry. "Will told me that the bounty hunters are coming up with an evil plan.
