HEY GUYS I'M BACK!

Homework settled down, and I tried to get this finished. And yeah.

Just a little heads up, I won't be updating very fast as I did during summer, because I might suddenly have a load of homework, or I might have an important event. So I'm planning on updating every week or week and a half or so, maybe earlier, maybe later. I'll try to tell you if I know that the story won't be updated very fast, but that's only if I have predictable events. Not homework.

Hope you like this new story!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Kaichou wa Maid sama or anything related! All I own is the plot!

Chapter one: Pirates

We had to do it to survive. That's the only reason why we chose this pathway. All of our families betrayed us, and we had to fend for ourselves and our remaining family. If there were any. With the three of us being criminals, anything could happen to our families. The kingdom's army (also called the Maeliv army of the Kingdom of Maelivrin, if you want to be fancy) would track us down, and instead of punishing us, they would punish our families. Despite this, we would go against the strict laws and steal. Food, jewelry, anything that would give us the money to survive.

"Hey Misaki! Why don't you just get a job?" is probably what you're thinking. Because of our stupid family member's crimes, our families were deemed Orist, which basically bans the whole family from any job, with the exception of the Castle Entertainer. I, and neither would Sakura or Shizuko, give up my dignity for money. Yes, the life of crime is a much better choice.

NORMAL POV

"Misaki! I hear someone coming!" Sakura alerted Misaki from the doorway, as Misaki quickly stuffed the jewels into the secret compartment of her satchel. Did I just hear something ripping?

"Hey! Is anyone in there!?" they all calmly walked out the doorway, to see the angry face of a soldier.

"Sorry, I thought I lost something, so I just came back to get it. I work here, you see," Misaki started. Sakura and Shizuko nodded.

"Oh really," the soldier scratched his beard

"Yes," Misaki said, Seriously! What is that ripping sound...

Suddenly, a clutter of items poured out of a hole in Misaki's satchel.

"THEY'RE THEIVES! THEIVES! SEIZE THEM!" the soldier comanded to his fellow soldiers, as he pointed and ran towards the sprinting threesome.

"Run!" Misaki screamed.

"STOP IN THE NAME OF THE KING!" they heard from behind them. Misaki saw an alley way, and quickly motioned to Sakura and Shizuko to come close. They made a turn, and quietly stood behind a wall, watching the group of soldiers run past them. Misaki looked left and right. Seeing what she was looking for, she headed towards the end of the alleyway, Sakura and Shizuko following their leader without a word.

In the dim light of the evening, Misaki spotted a ship. She tiptoed up the boardwalk, onto the vacant deck.

"I think this is a good place to stay. We'll stay here until morning, and then get off the ship right before it takes off. For now, let's find some food that we can take back to our families," Misaki said, while opening each and every barrel and looting every kind of food they saw until their satchels were full. Misaki found a piece of thread and a sharp piece of wood to mend her satchel. Better than nothing.

Misaki took off her long leather jacket and sat down against the ledge. She motioned for her partners to sit next to her, and she covered them both with her jacket. Sakura snuggled against Misaki's chest, and Shizuko used Misaki's shoulder as a head rest.

"Good night, you two," Misaki said quietly, and patted Sakura's head. They all went into a deep, and peaceful sleep.

"Captain! Captain! There are intruders on our boat!" Misaki heard, as she woke up from her sleep. She could barely see, and her head hurt. Probably the effects of not eating for four days. Why do I feel like the ground is moving? She managed to make out a small boy with green-ish hair, pointing to them. And a tall blonde, probably the captain, looking over at them.

"Sakura, Shizuko, wake up," Misaki groggily said. She rubbed her eyes, and when she opened them, a stranger's face was staring right at her, up close, centimeters away from her face.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Misaki screamed

"What's the matter, Misaki," Sakura muttered

"May I ask, who are you?" the blonde stranger asked Misaki

"W-w-who are you!?" Damn, why did I stutter

He chuckled, "Well, if you must know," he grunted, and stood up," I'm Usui Takumi of Ahrior, leader of the Pirates, with a capital P,"

PIRATES?! WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN US INTO!? AREN'T THEY EXTREMELY VIOLENT AND FIGHT AND STUFF?!

"Don't worry, we won't harm you in any way," Can he read minds or something? "This little green haired lad is Yukimura Shouchiro, the other blonde with the earring is Sakurai Kuuga, the one with the eye-patch is Soutarou Kanou, and the extremely giddy brunette is Sanshita Hinata," Usui explained, pointing to each one of them, they all stood close to each other, each group facing each other.

"FOR THE THOUSANDTH TIME, MY NAME IS SHINTANI! NOT SANSHITA!" Sanshita (or Shintani or whatever his real name is) said

"Whatever, Sanshita," Usui waved his hand up and down, his palm facing the ground, "Anyways, now that we have introduced ourselves, why don't you three tell us your names,"

"Why do we need to tell you our names, anyways, we're getting off this boat, let's go, Sakura, Shizuko," Misaki started walking towards the place where they came in through. She tried to start walking off the boardwalk, but instead of a long and wide ramp, there was a short railing. Misaki tripped and almost fell over. But a pair of arms wrapped around her waist, keeping her from falling over.

"Are you suicidal, Ms. We're-getting-off-a-sailing-boat," Sailing?! "Well, you're not getting off now," He turned her around to face him. She recognized that the person that saved her was the blonde named...Taka-Tama-Takumi. Yes, Usui Takumi.

"Misaki!" Sakura and Shizuko ran over to Misaki, checking every single body part, to see if she was okay. Misaki shook off her friends.

"YOU PERVERT!" she slapped him across the face, blushing furiously. Sakura and Shizuko stood there, blank. Usui, rubbing his cheek, stared into space with shock.

"Hey! You can't ju-" Kuuga started

"It's fine, Kuuga," Usui chuckled, "Well, now that that's settled, now would you introduce yourselves?" Usui said

"Fine," Misaki murmured, "I-I'm Ayuzawa Misaki, this is Hanazono Sakura, and Kaga Shizuko. We're all from Maelivrin," Misaki said, loud and proud.

"M-MAELIVRIN!?" Yukimura exclaimed, "B-but isn't that the kingdom whose government is almost spartan-like? I hear that their social classes are so strict and detailed," Misaki clenched her fist, but then calmed down, when she realized their problem.

"Of course we're Maeliv. We got onto the boat there, didn't we? Well, we're going to have to stay here until we get back to Maelivrin," Misaki said, "So I would appreciate it if you could lend us some space. Even the tiniest of space would be okay. You won't even know we're here,"

"Wait wait wait, you can't just expect us to rent off part of our boat for free!" Kuuga exclaimed

"We'll work," Misaki said

"As what? As a maid? If that's the case, I would like a glass of lemonade, pronto. Also, wash our clothes, iron them, and don't forget the underwear. Scrub the whole deck, not even missing one spot. Cook all of our meals, sort out all of our inventory, and shine our weaponry. Is that what you want?"

"W-well," Misaki hesitated

"If you're going to hesitate so much, we might as well throw you off board. Happy swimming," Kuuga pushed them towards the edge of the boat

"W-wait," Misaki really didn't want to say this, "W-we'll work as m-"

"You know what, I have a better idea for you three," Usui said, and guided them below deck. He led them to a small room, containing weaponry and materials for making clothing. He opened a closet full of uniforms. He picked out three of the smallest ones, and showed them to the three.

"How do you feel, about becoming a pirate."

HI EVERYONE! This is my new story, and I feel very content with this story line. Hope you liked it!

And sorry about the long hiatus, or whatever you would call it. I tried to finish this to the best of my ability, and tried working on the plot during free time I had at school. I even wrote everything out on a time-line, so I could refer to it as I'm writing.

Sorry about my writing skills, as I read over my story, I felt less confident with my writing skills as I did during "Fame and Fortune".

Thank you so much for reading! Until next time! Please anticipate the next chapter...
