The Black Pirate: Caught

As they leave the stables, they hear a thick masculine voice.

"What do you think you are doing?"

They stop in their tracks and turn towards the source of the voice. There standing at a corner was a tall masculine man in his late thirties. Besides him was a small boy of about twelve years of age, it was the horse thief.

"They are trying to steal the horse the small boy brought." the teenage boy they earlier saw spoke to the tall man.

"I asked what do you think you are doing? How dare you steal from the Black Pirate?" He bellowed at them. 

Elsas shivered as his deep voice reverberated in the surrounding, sending a fearful chill running down her spine. After some seconds passed, she found back her voice.

"Steal? I am only taking what is mine," replied Elsa, her brows deepened into a frown as she gazes up at him.

"Not the way I see it. This lad owns it," the man retorted.
