La figlia del Corsaro Nero -Cap 4 ENG-

chap4:"the hostage"
In the sea of the Est exudes an air of serenity and peace, located into a beautiful bay there's the Headquarters of the Navy, a worldwide organization responsible for maintaining law, order  and justice in those seas full with pirates, brave soldiers and sails the sea showing off proudly the uniform of Justice, the Navy certainly don't let any pirate to even mock them, repressing the outlaws with iron fist and there, into her office, the Admiral of the Fleet Amelia is intent on controlling different kind of maps and sheets, the cat woman had received very serious news and she's waiting for the arrival of two Commodores, when the door opened two men stepped in: one was a black rabbit with a proud and martial look, the other is a rat is taller and thinner with a sly look, both them stopped in front of their superior and takes their salute position
"Commodore Oswald at report, Admiral!" the rabbit said,
"Commodore Mortimer at report, Admiral!" the rat said,
"At ease" she answered, leaning her slender back to the elegant chair
"I've recently heard that the noble El Salvo's daughter has been kidnapped by pirates" Oswald asks, serious "what do we know about them?"
the cat touched her chin and commented, doubtful "on their flag there's the symbol of the Black Corsair, but I doubt it could be him, the vessel is too small and that man disappeared years ago"
Mortimer thought about this and tries to have his say "maybe it could be his daughter, I heard rumors about her and in the last times she began to annoy various pirates"
Amelia mumbled something then glared to Mortimer,
"however, they want to make a trade.. the girl in exchange of 5000 golden pieces, in the next days"
"it's a rather high price indeed, perhaps they need of easy cash for some long travel"
"we can't afford to make mistakes, there's an innocent life in the middle, Commodore Mortimer, you'll take care of this!"
"EEEEEEHHH?! w-why should I do this tedious work?" Oswald grinned malicious and went even further
"maybe because you're the most pathetic here" Mortimer shout in the face of the other "Shut up! How dare you to offend me in front of the Admiral!"
suddenly Amelia jumps up and stops the quarrel firmly,
"SILENCE! I don't admit such vulgar quarrels in my cabin! Mortimer, I don't accept objections, hurry up and reach the place of the exchange, catch them in a trap!"
Mortimer then smiled and take his salute position
"no worry, Admiral, I've already an idea to trap them all, Ha-cha-cha!"
Amelia turned to Oswald with a sad look,
"Commodore Oswald, unfortunately we found no trace of your brother, the ship on which he worked was sunk and we didn't found his corpse yet… I wouldn't like the pirates had…"
Oswald smiled self-confident and calmed his superior,
"don't worry about this, I'm sure Mickey is ok, he's able to adapt and solve any situation, sooner or later we'll have news of him, I'm sure of it"

Meanwhile, on the Folgore, a feminine yell echoes into a room, a hopeless yell of a girl who doesn't get what she wants,
"what kind of digesting water is this?! I want pure source water! Get away from me you barbarians EEEEK!! My dad will make you pay dearly this outrage!" and Mickey received a hit on his forehead by the glass the captive girl threw, the girl was chained at the wall only by a chain at her ankle, the girl is beautiful, her skin pale and delicate, framed by long curly blond hair that cover her eyes as if she was hiding them, the girl yells annoyed and Mickey hold his poor ears, trying to calm her down,
"oh gosh calm down mrs Jean, please"
"I'll not calm down!, you cursed pirate! Let me go now or my father will sink this worthless rattletrap!"
embarrassed, Mickey slowly lean closer to the angered girl
"b-but at least calm down…" realizing how close Mickey is, the captive notice that Mickey's very cute and maybe.. using her feminine, irresistible charm.. she could get free from this horrible situation, and so Jean raise one leg, slipping the long frilly gown off her beautiful skin,
"oh ok then.. you fiery and beautiful thug.. but if you free me.. we could come to an agreement.. I just know how to reward you.." she murmur with a silky, seducing voice, Mickey blushed sightly and doesn't notice yet there was Minerva behind him,
"am I interrupting something?"
Mickey jumped up scared and embarrassed, glancing upon the cold eyed captain,
"mh.. n-no no ma'am.. it's all ok here.." Minerva placed one hand on her hip and sighed out
"very well… then bring the prisoner into my cabin" she order as she walked away, stopping only to add,
"oh, by the way… if into your pants something wake up, I swear I'll hang you at it!" and Mickey shivered a bit horrified.
