The Black Corsair Page #3

By rank.

You next,

sub commander.

Help the commander!

Sailors, climb up!

Surrender!

The ship is ours.

- Wan Stiller, take care of everything.

- Yes, commander.

Take ten of your men...

and sail the galleon

to Tortuga, behind us.

Search for barrels of gunpowder...

and move them

aboard our "Lightning".

You fought gallantly and valiantly.

That saved your lives.

I value honest brave men.

You shall have a raft and supplies,

sail where you wish.

Thank you.

It is my duty to inform you...

...of two other passengers on board.

- Who?

- A countess and her chamber maid.

Did you hear that? We are

in the company of a famous lady!

What was all this noise?

Quick, disembark all gunpowder!

Couldn't get any sleep last night.

Forgive us, gracious lady.

Among unavoidable aspects

of attacking ships, is noisy ruckus.

Our ship was attacked?

Yes my lady, by corsairs.

Oh my Lord! And who won?

The corsairs.

And I'm their leader.

Oh my Lord!

That doesn't mean

I am not a gentleman.

I assure you no harm will come to you

nor your chambermaid.

To none.

May I ask your name?

They call me,

the Black Corsair.

The Black Corsair?

Did you hear that? A worse fate.

Fear not my lady.

He claims to be gentleman, surely he

will prove it by granting us liberty.

Unfortunately, I do not decide alone,

rather is up to my entire crew as well.

Oh my! Will any of you dare touch me...

No, no, no, calm down.

I promise that

I will protect both of you...

...as much as my men.

But your freedom

will have to be purchased...

...at the slave market in Tortuga.

Our pirate island.

We arrive in three days.

By the way,

might we know your fair name?

I am Honorata Villerman,

duchess of Verteldrem.

And this girl

is my chambermaid.

Ready, let's sail!

That Villerman Duchess

... from Verteldrem is here.

Am glad...

...you accepted my invitation, duchess.

Sit down, please.

Thank you.

Forgive me. I asked...

...the Princess to sit here, not you.

What is the meaning?

But dear lady.

You are the duchess...

...and she is your maid.

Do you think I did not realize it

right away?

Forgive me, but...

...I understand you did it...

...to protect your duchess

from possible harm.

I will sit at your table only because

I have no choice.

And, what of my pretense...

...pretending to be a gentleman...

...you are no different.

You are mean, duchess.

If I had a gun or a sword...

...I would be even more, so.

Moko...

Serve the ladies.

Would you like some wine?

Here

Your men seem to be more

of a nuisance than servants.

I admit that.

But when attacking a ship,

they're great.

Evidently.

Your wine glasses and

dinning utensils are exquisite.
