"Tae, where's the little guy?" The prince asks after he saw that the fiery redhead was missing from the table.
"He doesn't eat with us, he has a lot of work to do." Yoongi nodded and glanced towards the captain's quarters to his right.
"Does he have breakfast?" Taehyung shrugged. "I will be right back then," Yoongi then nearly fell over the table reaching for food to put on an extra plate before walking to the red wooden door and knocking.
"Come in," Jimin said, not taking the time to glacé up until he saw someone in front of him.
The captain blinked at Yoongi as he set the plate down. Even though it has been less than 24 hours since he was taken from the castle, the crew has given the royal lion a clean bed, a fresh pair of clothes so this was a small way to repay that. The pirates could've done a whole lot worse if they wanted.
"I know what it's like having all this work and people to take care of. Meaning, I know how important it is to eat, so there you go," Yoongi smiled and Jimin's jaw slightly dropped after what he had heard.
"O-Oh, well thank you." Yoongi nodded.
"Whatcha working on?" He titled his head, trying to decipher the upside-down map when Jimin pulled the plate closer.
"A map, we have some enemies closing in on us, so I have to figure out where to go without going to war. However! For some fucking reason, I can't fucking understand why they are staying at this island for so long."
"How do you know where they are?" Jimin chuckled.
"My spirit helps me, but when you have two sirens and a viper who has finally learned how to swim. It's easy to sneak into boats, it makes this whole ordeal very helpful, yeah." Yoongi raised an eyebrow.
"Impressive but do you know what's on or in the island?" The captain nodded as he took another bite of the oatmeal.
"Well there is sulfur, salt, wild animals... and I think that's really it." Yoongi hums and rubs his chin.
"I may be wrong but if they have salt, sulfur, and charcoal, they can make gunpowder." Jimin's eyes widened and he snapped his head up to the thinking prince.
"I think you may be onto something. Thank you, your highness."
"You're welcome and why don't you come outside and spend some time with your crew?" The elder suggested.
"Why are you helping us? We- Jungkook did kidnap you?"
"I guess I'm thinking this is my time to get some fresh air, get away from all the rules back home. Yes, my parents are probably going shit stack crazy at this point but I'm kinda starting to like you guys." He winked.
"You're right," Jimin mumbled, ignoring most of what was said, "they are my crew for a reason." He stood up, grabbed his hat to cover his hair and a little bit of his eyes.
The two didn't talk as Jimin grabbed his plate and they both walked out to the dinner table.
"Eh Cap, what's hanging?" Jin smiled, moving his foot from the captain's chair.
"I'm watching you, Jin," Jimin hissed, glancing at Namjoon glaring at him with a hand on his sword. "I am not stupid enough to hurt your precious prince." A spoon dropped.
"Wait! Hold up there's another prince? Wait.. is Jin' a Prince or is that just some kinky nickname?" Yoongi furrowed his eyebrows and looked around.
"Jin's the Prince of Atlantis and Namjoon is his guard aka bodyguard and mate." Hoseok explained with a smile on his face, "But it also could be a kinky name." He laughed and Namjoon looked like he was about to attack him but Jin put his hand on the younger's arm.
"Didn't you say they were sirens?"
"Sirens are the guardians of the merfolk. We are stronger and more agile in the water, also we can go on land," Namjoon spoke, scowling at Hoseok who was still laughing.
"Why are you here then, Jin?"
"My older brother became king and I didn't want to stay so I asked to come to the surface. That's how I met Namjoon, he was assigned to keep me safe but every once in a while I need to return and check up on my duties as a prince." Yoongi hummed.
"You should see my dad. When he starts working, he won't stop. It gets so bad my mom has to go in and force him out." He sadly chuckled.
"I have seen the queen pull Yoongi's dad's ear and drag him out of his studies. She is small but scary strong!" Taehyung chuckled and patted the prince's shoulder.
"My dad says I get my attitude from her." The crew smiled.
"If she's like you, then she must be scary." Yoongi turned and smiled at the youngest.
"Don't worry I am much scarier, she just has this 'I know I'm the best, and you know I am the best' feel."
"Well this has been fun but we still need to pick up the rest of the crew from Diamonds Peak." Yoongi's eyes widened.
"There's more of you?" The captain bobbed his head, pushing his bowl away from him.
"We've got about 7 more."
"My boo's coming back!" Hoseok cheered and started doing a weird dance that earned the same weird looks.
"One of them is Hoseok's fiancé," Taehyung whispered to Yoongi who could tear his eyes away from the smiling man.
"Do you.. um, have a problem with that Yoongi?" Hoseok asks when he sees the prince's confused face.
"Oh no, not at all. I'm gay too, just surprised that pirates actually get married. I can see Jin and Namjoon, that's biology but marriage, yikes."
"Yoongi, we are still human beings. We all have feelings. We just happen to steal from others!" The captain explained. "Also can the future King be gay?"
"My parents are okay with prefers, they just would like for me to be with someone before I'm 25. I have 4 years to find someone who wants me for me and not for my name," Jungkook pouts out his lips and leans against Taehyung.
"Shadowpaw is really excepting in those types of things. They just need a strong leader who can protect them." Taehyung spoke, shrugging off his boyfriend to pick up the empty plates.
"Yoongi, how strong are you?" Jin suddenly asks, his head on Namjoon's shoulder.
"I can take almost all the guards down in the castle except for General Suho." Jimin froze and he looked at Yoongi with wide eyes.
"Suho is still alive?" Yoongi chuckles and looks him in the eyes.
"Of course he is, but how do you know him?" Jimin looked past Yoongi and at Taehyung who was watching them carefully through squinted eyes.
"I uh, I have had a few run-ins with him."
"Ah, well he is still the only one who can beat me but I'm hoping to beat him soon."
"Yes, um I am going back to work." Jimin suddenly said and rushed back to his quarters.
"Did I say something wrong?" Yoongi wondered when he noticed Taehyung was behind him.
"No, you didn't. Come with me, I think we should continue your fighting skills. Namjoon is the second-best on the ship and land, after the captain but he is still really good."
"I am pretty sure Namjoon doesn't like me." Taehyung hummed..
"Probably true but he'll warm up to you. He's just protective of his prince."
"Oh, yeah I can see that." He mumbles, "Tae? Whose clothes are these?"
"It's caps, he was the closest to your figure." Yoongi nodded looking at the pirate clothes. "Here is a sword and here is a Namjoon." Taehyung chuckled, pushing the uninterested siren forward.
"Asshole," Namjoon mumbled, taking his sword out nonetheless.
"I know you are but what am I?" Namjoon dropped his arm and looked at Taehyung like he was an idiot.
"Go find Jungkook before I put you in Yoongi's place." The tiger's eyes widened and he ran away.
"I need to learn how to do that. Tae never listens to me, even though I am the prince," Namjoon's lip twitched up into a slight grin.
"Well, I can control people with my voice so I don't know if you can learn that," Yoongi shrugged.
"I got my alpha voice but I only use it when I need to. The last time I did, I almost killed a person from fear," Namjoon smirked.
"I would like to see that one time." Yoongi nodded and started slowly stepping closer towards Namjoon before striking. "You're sneaky," Namjoon cackled, blocking the hit.
"I'm part cat, of course, I am sneaky." The prince swung his sword up but turned and went down, scratching Namjoon's leg and taking part of his pants with him.
"You're not half bad." Yoongi scoffed and got back into position.
"I wish I could say the same for you." Namjoon bit his lip and snickered.
"You're so on now." Yoongi raised an eyebrow and blinked, his eyes turning all black. Namjoon stepped forward and swung fast, hard, and with no mercy.
Yoongi was quick to leap out of the way. Ready to attack from behind, Namjoon had suddenly moved to point his sword at the lion's neck.
"I win." He huffed.
"So did I," Namjoon looked down when something poked his stomach, pleasantly surprised at the sharp metal before him.
"Again?" Yoongi nodded and they didn't wait for the other to get into position.
Namjoon bent down and swept Yoongi's feet from under him. As the younger stood up he watched Yoongi do a back handspring and land on his feet.
'Damn.' Namjoon thought as the nimble prince used his strength to clash his sword against Namjoons. Their faces were close but Yoongi pushed even harder making Namjoon stumbled back grabbing most of the crew's attention.
Namjoon shook his head and growled, looking at Yoongi who was shocked when he saw the siren's eyes flash a dark blue.
Namjoon stared down the younger and he slid his sword across the wooden floor as he walked forwards.
"Who do you think is going to win?" Taehyung whispered to Jungkook who was wrapped tightly in his arms.
"I think Namjoon." The tiger shook his head.
"Yoongi will-".
"Guys just watch." Both Jin and Hoseok snapped. watching as the two fight while no one manages to notice an intrigued Jimin lurking from behind the ship's helm. Watching with a trained eye. (A/n: if you don't know the helm is the ships steering wheel)
"Tae, shouldn't worry about him falling in love with me. He should be worried about me falling in love with him," the captain sighs and gawks at the ocean. "What's that?" He mumbled and took out his telescope to see something he hated.
"SHIP DEAD AHEAD!"

It's like Yoongi and Namjoon switched personalities a little.
