They saw her walking on the pier as she helped get the ship stocked with more goods. Her blonde hair and fair skin was something that did not blend in around the ports and it was easier to spot her out. They remembered her from when they jumped the ship. But there was something much different about her now. Not only did they want her, they wanted what she had as well. Specifically a jewel that hung from her neck. So they'd take the jewel and her as well. They took one of their women, so now it was time to take one of theirs.

So they waited until all the men where busy. Half were packing the ship the rest disappearing to get the rest of their supplies, including her. She hadn't sensed them immediately with the large crowd around her. By the time she did recognize someone was following her it was too late. They waited until she was at the back of the pack then clamped their hands around her waist and mouth before dragging her off.


" What do you mean you lost her!" Eduardo yelled. " How can you loose a woman!"

" We turned around and she was gone. Literally. I had been talking to her then the next time I turned around she was gone with no clue of where she went." Thomas explained sadly. Eduardo sighed and tried to calm himself down. He had to keep an even head, he had to think straight.
" Why would anyone want Nyla?" Nathan asked as he stepped forward. Then it Eduardo.
" She was wearing the gem." he mumbled.
" Well what are we going to do now?" Russel asked. " We can't just leave her to disappear. We don't even know who took her."

" I have an idea." Fluffy started. They all turned and looked at her, waiting. Had she not said it when she did Eduardo was sure he was going to strangle her until the words came out.
" No, I know it was the Rika." She corrected herself." You took me. In return they took one of your girls."
" As if anyone would miss you fatty." Russel scoffed. She frowned and smacked him up side the head.
" Every one of you would miss me if I was gone just like how you're missing Nyla! I just hope that he doesn't get her. Cap shouldn't be rough but you just never know with him."

Eduardo frowned and walked out of the room. They called out for him but he didn't hear. He was not going to let Allen lay a hand on her. She may have been strong and knew how to fight but that didn't mean she could take on a whole ship of men herself.

The door to the captain's quarters bursted and he welcomed himself inside.
" Captain I'm setting a path to the Rika." he announced. Morgan looked up from his desk.
" I heard about her. Are you alright?" he asked as he calmly looked at him. Eduardo bristled.

" Of course I am." he snapped. And with that he turned and left the room.


Nyla waited in the silence of the empty room. She had given a strong fight, even gave a few bloody noses, but it just wasn't enough to gave a huff in annoyance. There had to be a way out.

She went to stand up with her arms tied behind her back. Then a pain shot through her leg and she winced. They had thrown her to the grown due to her fighting back and the impact irritated her wound.

The door opened and Allen stepped in. Nyla frown and her eyes hardened. She'd hold her ground.

" Well the Sirus sure does know how to pick the cuties don't they?" He spoke with a sly smile as he knelt and held her chin in between his fingertips. Nyla growled and began to mumble her french words under her breath. Allen gave a chuckled.

" I heard you were feisty. Is that french I hear? It's not often one travels so far from their home."

Nyla began to call him names in her own language, earning a slight relief from her anger. All though it was only temporary. He laughed again then hushed as his eyes trailed to her leg. There he spotted blood stained on her trousers she wore to work in. His fingertips grazed her wound and Nyla let out a hiss in pain.

" How did this happen?" He asked seriously.

" As if I'd tell you." She spat. For the first time Allen frowned. He turned and ordered for medical supplies from his men. When they returned he demanded that they were to be left alone. So they were.

" Plan on taking advantage of me?" She snapped as he placed the kit on his bed. He dragged her to her feet then threw her on the bed, pushing down on her shoulders so hard that it nearly made Nyla yelp.

" I suggest you don't fight against me." He sneered. Nyla went to spit in his face when he removed himself. Nyla pushed herself up right as quickly as she could with her hands bound together.

His hands took a knife the hem of her pants and gave a rip. The sound of it made her cringe. They were her only pants she had.

" Would you prefer to remove them all together?" He asked as he peered up at her, raising a brow. When she didn't answer he continued on.

" That's what I thought."
Allen continued to cut until her bandage was exposed. Then he placed his blade back in it's sheath and began to work at it. To her surprise Allen's touch was much more gentler than she had expected. He never once hurt her and he never once went passed his boundaries.

" Here, wear this." He spoke as he threw a dress at her. She went to open her mouth to make a smart remark about not being able to with her hands tied but the ropes around her wrists were already cut.

" I know better than to trust you. So go ahead and change but I'm not leaving the room." He spoke as he turned. Nyla paused before quickly stepping into her gown. All she had to do was last until Eduardo came to get her. He would, wouldn't he?
