"I'm not your mate..." David Nolan/Prince Charming spoke defensively towards Captain Hook as he pulled away from the pirate's grasp. Captain Hook watched as the prince walked off in the opposite direction of their enemies. A smirked slowly appeared on his lips.
"You once were more then that..." Captain Hook looked down and hand his hand through his hair before following behind the prince.

~FLASHBACK~

Captain Hook (Killian Jones at the time) was on a crime spree for a long while now. He needed some things before he took off with The Dark One's wife and since he was a pirate, no one had trusted him enough to lend him some items or give him some money or a simple job in the meantime. So he went on and every night for two weeks now he'd been braking into placed he's think would have the most valuable things and he stole them, later to sell them for more then they're worth.

One evening the pirate stumbled upon a castle and of course castles mean wealth. He looked around cautiously as he made his way to a door which was opened. He looked around first to make sure noone was on their way back or about to head out. He'd crept in, shutting the door as quietly as possible behind him. The pirate made his way through the servent's quarters, then into the kitchen where he'd stopped to grab an apple (all this breaking and entering, he'd hadn't really stopped to eat.) then made through the castle as he threw some valuable looking items into a sack he'd kept with him at all time.

A sound rose from behind the pirate causing him to stop, stiffen up a bit. He swallowed and up his hands up in defense as he felt a cold, sharp blade press against the side of his neck. He tilted his head to the right side as he slowly turned, the blade tracing across his neck. Captain Hook soon met eyes with a man, he held a sword tightly in one hand.

"Your name?" The man ordered.
"Killian Jones..."
"You're a pirate."
Captain Hook smirked softly. "Isn't it obvious?"

The man examined him carefully, he drew his sword back and put out his other hand.

"Give me the sack." He demanded.
"Or what?" The pirate teased. "I don't mean no harm."
"You're the one that's been stealing, are you?"
"Nothing gets past you..." Captain Hook raised an eye brow and in one swift moment he hit the man hard with the sack full of hard items, causing him to go down and the pirate to get a head start.

A few moment later Captain Hook was tackled to the ground and taken up to his feet, the sword now threatening to slice his neck open. The man had a tight grip on him.

"And your name might be?" Captain Hook said, trying to buy him sometime.
"You don't know who I am?" The man tightened his grip as he felt the pirate trying to work his way free.
"I travel a lot."
"I'm the prince."

The pirate looked around his surroundings.

"I should've figured that much. I take this is your castle then, ey?"

The man nodded.

"And I don't like it when thieves steal from me." The prince pressed the sword more against the pirate's neck. Captain Hook let out a soft chuckle.

"Hasn't your father ever told you never bring a sword when you're battling a pirate?" And once again, with one swift motion the pirate managed to get free and get the sword in his own hands. The prince was on the ground, pressing his hands against a fresh cut on his leg the pirate had just given him. The pirate tilted the prince's head up a bit using his sword, a wide smirk appeared when a thought popped into his mind.

Captain Hook left shortly after he'd tied the prince up. He looked once more at the prince who was struggling to get free. He gave him a wink then grabbed the sack and ran off...
