Y/N. At one moment, she was quite a happy, yet introverted, young lady. The next moment, she was trembling violently, terrified for her life.

She was just enjoying an evening walk until all of the sudden- she'd been knocked out, kidnapped, and sold to a pirate's crew.

Arthur Kirkland's, to be specific.

The men were absolutely heartless towards her, and showed no signs of remorse. It was mainly Arthur who'd punish her for even the slightest of mess-ups, but at times, one lucky man would be left with her in her cell to have some… fun. For the most part, even for things like that, it was Arthur, given that he was the one who bought her, so he was the one who owned her, so he made the rules of when the other men could touch her and when they couldn't. Knowing his crew wouldn't rebel against him, he kept her all to himself.

Kirkland oftentimes got into fights with other crews. For example, all of those fights he'd had with Francis Bonnefoy's crew. Well… almost no one ever died, though oftentimes, they were horribly wounded, and eventually, Francis would retreat from the battles. Y/N was thankful that he hadn't found the dungeons and taken her.

However… one day, everything changed.

She could hear the horrible screams of men as they fought against a crew that she'd heard before- Antonio F. Carriedo's crew. He left his crew to fight against Arthur's, while he went off to find some things to steal.

He came to a door, and opened it. He was expecting spices, but instead, he found dungeons. "¿Hay alguien aquí?" He called out, cautiously stepping into the room. A few steps in, he noticed a ball of S/C skin, H/C hair, and white- which was a dress.

Grinning, he walked up to the cell, and tried to open it. He noticed that it was locked, and quickly went to get the keys from Kirkland, who he had knocked out. He soon returned to the dungeons, opened her cell, and took the girl, much to her shock and dismay.

Throwing her over his shoulder, he immediately began to flee Kirkland's ship. Y/N began to scream, and struggle, but Antonio wasn't letting go.

After several minutes of struggling, Antonio had his entire crew back on board, and they were busy sorting out the goods that they took from Kirkland's ship.

Antonio set down the girl, and flashed a lopsided smile at her. She was trembling, and quickly shuffled back. The men on his crew just now noticed the girl, and began to approach her. They surrounded and surrounded her, and eventually tried to grab her, when suddenly-

"¡No! Esta bella es mía!" Antonio growled out to them.

Groaning, they backed off, and continued to sort out the goods that they stole from Kirkland's ship. As they were doing this, Antonio smiled softly and turned to the girl, looking down at her, "Do you understand English?" he asked, tilting his head. A thick Spanish accent coated his voice.

To this question, all Y/N could bring herself to do was nod, shifting away from him ever so slightly. This only made him grin even wider.

"So, what's your name?"

"Y-Y/N…" she mumbled, her voice trembling, and barely audible.

"Y/N… what? I'm sorry, I didn't get the end there."

Y/N sighed heavily. If he couldn't understand her this time, she could just show him her collar that Kirkland put on her… She sighed, "Y/N…" she murmured, her voice slightly louder this time.

When she spoke, Antonio bent down to reach her level so he could hear. One he heard her name, he stood up, and gave her yet another lopsided smile. "Y/N… a lovely name indeed." He gestured for her to follow him, causing her to flinch, "Come, follow me, I'll show you where you're going to be sleeping." With that, he began to lead her to where she would be sleeping- the dungeons.

Y/N could only bring herself to just barely nod, and she began to follow him, the collar tags on the collar she wore jingling softly.

Once they made it there, Y/N's heart dropped, and it felt as though it dropped down to her stomach. She followed him hesitantly. He then noticed the collar, and bent back down to her level, "Here, I'm just going to take this off…" With that being said, he proceeded to remove the collar, stuffing it in his back pocket. Y/N didn't budge as he took it off.

Antonio then unlocked the cell, and gestured the girl into it, which she very hesitantly obeyed. The cell wasn't as bad as the one she had with Kirkland- there was actually a bed with a pillow and blanket, as well as a small window. Once she was in, he closed and locked the door. Without another word, he simply left, and Y/N just buried herself into the bed and underneath the blanket.

Antonio sighed as he felt the collar in his pocket, "That Brit is horrible to women…" Yes, he had taken her in as a prisoner. But no, he wasn't going to treat her terribly. He could tell that she was scared.

Maybe, just maybe, if he could get to know his new pet a little more, he'd try to help improve her life.
