My other story (Learning to love) got somehow wiped off of the internet ; unfortunatly :( So I'm going to write as much as possible to catch up to my previous amount written . I don't like to beg for reviews but It lights my day up when I recieve them! All critique/reviews are welcome! This isn't a self - insert. It's just in my characters P.O.V . For anyone (If anyone!) who reads please enjoy It
It was a cold , cruel night and the water was likewise . I battled my way through the vicious waves of the unforgiving depths of murky water surrounding me . I can't endure much more . I was already starting to allow my consciousness to slip away but I had a meek grasp on my remaining strengh. My ship had been savagly attacked and all that filled my landscape was broken cargo and floating debris . I tried to shout for help but none came and I wondered If I should just give up altogether.
I swam for a few minutes in a desperate search of land or at least a ship. My vision started to go fuzzy but I stayed put on my task , I wasn't going to fail - This was for survival . Just then a miricle happened -( Can you believe my luck?! ) . I saw something that i had hoped and prayed for ; A ship! I waved my arms around In an urgency to steal some attention . At first the ship seemed to ignore me but I managed to grab thier attention and I froze in fear at what I saw . The front of the ship like a shark - like creature with the indents for the teeth . This ship could be non other than ... The Flying Dutchman
I tried to retreat and find some debris that was tall or wide enough to hide myself ; It shouldn't be to hard ; I wasn't that tall . My search soon ceased with no success.
"I'm doomed!" I screamed , stupidly attracting even more unwanted attention.
"I'm going to die!" I hollered in sheer panic and then added "I don't wanna die!! You hear me ?! You won't EVER take me alive!" I shouted , defiantly , shaking my wet fist In the moonlit air. "Even If I have to kill myself!"
To my pure shock the ship wasn't there!
"Am I having them seriously real - looking illusinations again?" I half gawked , half gulped.
Just then the dreaded ship arose from the surface of the water?! What the hell?!
"Ahhhhhhh!" I shouted , trying to retreat but to no avail . I had to surrender so they didn't run me over . Pathetic excuse , I know...
I screamed at the contents before me . They were all somehow associated with the sea ; wheter It was resembled on an animal of the deep or just common features of the undersea world : Seaweed , barnacles e.t.c But the Captain was no -where to be sighted . Part of me was relieved while I always had that competetive side of me where I wanted to meet him just to try and square his ranking . I decieded seen as though I was alive I shouldn't try that just yet. The Captain suddenly emerged from a rotting wall on the far side of the Dutchman and surveyed me . He was a sight to behold ! He had tentacles flying all over the place and a heavy - looking crab arm , accompanied with a not - so - heavy - looking crab leg (Peg leg) . Geez his thump was still loud enough to be heard on the other end of the ship though! She was secretly intrigued by him but she wasn't going to admit it and she had a small lurch in her stomach... Strange.
"Now , young lady , what are you doing out so late at night? You might get hurt!" The squid - like man laughed solemly with a tint of sarcasm hidden deep within his thick scottish voice . It was kind of creepy , He didn't smile , just laughed.
I shivered but I refused to give this corruption anything.
"I'm sorry , Sir -" I said edging away slightly "- I guess I'll be on my way . Again I'm sorry to disturb you" I said sheepishly but I was swiftly blocked by a hard arm.
"And where do you think your going?" The abomination spoke seriously
"On my way home ... If I can find It ..." I muttered . I was seroiusly starting to panic and my fear was visble although I didn't mean to show It.
There were some mutters amongst the equally hidious crew and I felt myself see red. I did my best to keep my temper but this Captain wasn't making it any easier , for when he saw me enraged he laughed and made a big joke of it. He really seemed heartless but then again he seemed like the kind of guy that was pretty harsh. It was a Captains duty to captivate the attention of his crew .If he's done that , his mission (If you like ) was completed.
"Welcome to mah crew" The squid before me said.
"Wait , I can't stay here!" I protested.
"Oh , ye want to die then?" He grinned evily , that small lurch again attacking my stomach.
"Fine! " I then thought But it won't be pretty...
"Where will the lady be staying , Cap'n?" A spiky looking crew member (I don't know his name!) asked , glaring over at me.
Don't look at me like that! I said through gritted teeth but quiet as to not attract the attention of the Captain . He seemed to be debaiting with himself , judging by his facial expression : A fixed thoughtful look and the occasional grimace , as if his brain was inflicting damage on him. Eventually he spoke:
"She'll have to stay In my cabin ... For now !" He shot me a killer glare , as If I was defiling some important plan of his.
We talked for a while In his cabin and I watched him play his organ , skillfully. He told me about the different notes and the way his tentacles could be of many uses in the right situation.
"And thats how you use them?" I held back a friendly laugh for fear of him taking it the the wrong way and just gave a hearty smile instead .
"Why not? He grunted "They are always going to be there "
"Oh, by the way , my name Is Jess and I don't know my second name so take the privaledge of calling me by my name . Whats your name?" I babbled carelessly , but I wasn't scared of him. Nope , not me!
He was shocked to my pleasure . He was seeming to think : You don't know who I am?! ....
"Davy ." He said without looking at me . "Davy jones" Saying It harshly hoping secretly It would jog something.
"Nice name..." I whispered with my last remaining strength
"Well good - night then" I thought inside my head
I went into a curled up ball and was set on getting some rest . He said I'll need It ...
Well how did It go? I think it went pretty well to say I'm not really a good writer . Please read and review! All critique/Reviews are welcome and appreciated!
Hope you enjoy It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D ::D :D
