Bounty Hunter Bash Roqaur Lock Part One

 Taken By The King

After a week they finally arrived at the doc, three days of which were spent on finally leaving Deathby Sea. They all shared the treasure with the residents of Jones Lock leaving them alone as they all left the shop well off. None of them had any notice to follow them or find out what will happen to them. Yet they all knew that they would most likely travel throughout the world. Yet because they did not want to follow them they would never know what happened to them.

They packed their treasure and Bash looked back along with the Chashathrophogh and Cerpheres. They all reached out their hands and set the ship alight. Then they left the ship with the flames spreading. The ship may have been beautiful and useful, but it was nothing but death. Even though Bash and Chashathrophogh had fun, it was time to leave the ship and the memories behind. They both could sense that Cerpheres had the same sentiment.

Yet they did not want to focus on that. No. It was time to get back on track. The strange dream holliday was over. It was a good and fun break but now was the time to return to waking up and back to reality. It was time to return to getting to that friend that Chashathrophogh was worried about and finding the dark lord that had put that spell upon them. Then force them to break the spell and clear Chashathrophogh's name.

"You going to miss it?" Asked Cerpheres like a concerned parent.

"No. I can't say that I will."

Bash cocked her eyebrow as the ship started to sink. As they walked down and arrived at the bottom and stepped on the front of the doc they took a moment of silence. Watching the flames claim more and more of the ship. They rose and continued to expand. The ship became filled with more and more of the flames. The fire became larger and larger. Then the flames become taller and taller. They devoured the masts and the sails. Soon they were looking at an inferno on the ocean. The flames were put out the moment that they met the water as the ship sank turning to ash.

Once the last flame fell beneath the waves they turned around.

"Tell me, do you regret killing Gurter?" Cerpheres asked.

His eyes tensed.

"I don't quite know. I do feel slightly sad but not overly so. I guess I pity her, she loved a man that was not nor ever would be interested in her. In fact I found her rather annoying."

"And has there been anyone you loved?" Cerpheres asked with mischief in his eyes.

His eyes tensed.

"Nooo!" He sighed. "Not in that way. I guess that I never had the time to focus upon that?"

Cerpheres placed an arm around Bash.

"What about you Drew?"

Bash rolled her eyes, shrugging him off.

"Bash! And no. Mother did try to marry me off twice and both times I ran away."

He let out a chuckle.

"Was that when you ran into little old me?" He sang.

She rolled her eyes

"No. We were caught by Captain Herlock."

"Oh? Why didn't you just say 'yes'? You could have led me on!" He sang, putting an arm around her. "And maybe you could have learnt something that would impress your dear uncle?"

I highly doubt that.

"Yes, well that 'dear uncle' is about to reconsider killing you if you don't break off!" Chashathrophogh warned, putting an arm on his shoulder.

He looked up at him almost daringly. He licked his lips slowly, with a flirtatious look in his devious eye.

"Maybe you should!" He purred, straightening up.

He then hooked the other arm around him.

"But how will you find my dear old dad? Also you know how useful I am! After all, what if you were in a situation where you needed a power spike? But what if little old me was not around to give it to you because you were foolish enough to kill me?" He purred, yet it was as if he wanted to add something but decided against it.

Chashathrophogh curled his lip and shrugged him off. Cerpheres smiled to himself almost as if he was laughing at a private joke. Yet he let go and stepped back.

They then started to walk to land when they were greeted by a group of guards.

"Oooh! Looks like you were expected!"

"Shut up Cerpheres!"

"Make me!"

He let out a huff. Cerpheres put on a false sad look on his face.

"What? No come back?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Because you would like that!"

"Urm…I don't know what's going on here." Said one of the guards. "But, please, relax, we're not here to kill you."

"What? Then what are you here for?"

"Do you really think we are stupid enough to try to kill the Bastard Killer? Or try to take on Bounty Hunter Bash The Touchable? No, we're here to take you to the king. His royal majesty had requested an audience with Bash."

"Yes. After all, if you don't kill us by the Demon Realm he sure will!"

"Alright. It's it a job?"

"Yes."

"Then take us. Although if you try anything they would not hesitate to stop you!" Bash warned.

This caused Cerpheres to lick his lips. The others looked at him and cringed in disgust. This caused them to quickly lead them to the castle.
