Eve's POV

Damn, why couldn't we have listened to her? My poor CB, this is all our fault.

"What are we going to do?" Shane asked. He'd been throwing pebbles for an hour now; this was the first time he'd said anything since Claire had gone.

"Well we can't exactly swim out and hope to find the ship; it's not even in site anymore!" I said.

"At least we won't starve." Michael said holding the crab he got earlier.

"What about you?" Shane said looking at Michael.

"What do you mean?"

"Well you're getting all the food for us when we got nothing for you."

Damn I wish I was telepathic, Michael better not screw this up or were dead.

He shrugged. "I can hold out."

I mentally sighed in relief.

"We can't just survive on fish." Shane moaned. "I hate fish."

"What happened to smell the food, eat the food?" I said.

"I swam away with the fishies." He replied.

I rolled my eyes and took Michael hands. "Shall we go get some wood?"

He nodded. "Shane," He said, he didn't look up. "You gonna be alright?"

"Always am." Shane said, still not looking up.

I looked at Michael doubtfully but he just shrugged. "He's a man," He said. "He can hold out."

"Hope your right." I sighed. I could tell Michael was worried too; Shane wasn't exactly rational. I don't even think he's heard of the word.

Claire's POV

They were dragging me to my death; there was nothing I could do about it.

I had left Shane, Michael and Eve. God what must they think about me?

How's Eve going to cope if Michael's only got her to feed on, unless Shane helps? Yeh like that's going to happen!

I could hear a fierce whisper coming from outside. Wait… where was I?

I sat up and took in my surroundings. Oh no! No, no, no, no! This is really bad!

"Hello sweetpea." One of my dad's crew members said, opening the door. "She's awake!" He yelled to the rest of the crew.

I heard them all start to cheer then my dad walked in.

"Claire-Bear." He said with his horrible twisted grin, which made his scar on the side of his face bend into an awful shape.

"Stop calling me that!" I said, clenching my fists.

He looked down at them then made an 'Awww' sound. "Claire-Bear," He said. "We all know your all teeth but no bite."

I answered by getting up and kicking him where it hurts.

He grunted then stumbled backwards. "You little bitch!" He spat. "You've been a burden ever since you were born!"

"At least im not an abusive bastard!" I spat back. That earned me a back handed slap, full on! I fell sideways and caught myself on the bed post.

"You're going to regret you ever said that!" He said, then slammed the door and locked it shut.

"Well at least you proved it was true!" I called after him but I knew he couldn't hear me.

Im never going to get out am I? God I missed Shane, missed his crooked smile he only used for me, missed his dazzling chocolate brown eyes, his totally gorgeous hair that he never bothered to style. That's what made it so sexy!

I sighed and slid down a nearby wall, crying. What for? You think you can cry all your troubles away, come on CB! Your better than that, you're the girlfriend of Shane Collins, so you fight!

What with, a brain? That's the only thing im good for, my brains. Maybe it would come in handy.

What are you thinking? They're Pirates, the only thing you need to know for a Pirate is how to fight!

I was too lost in my 'debate' that I hadn't noticed my phone buzz.

The hell? I fished it out my pockets and saw that Myrnin's bunny slippers were lighting up the screen. Of course Myrnin would find a way to get signal, even if he was clueless as to how they work.

Myrnin's POV

"Myrnin," Amelie said. "I grow tired of your talk. Have you not tried to contact her?"

"Amelie," I said a hint of disbelief in my voice. "How am I supposed to send a letter to an unknown location?"

"Silly fool!" She sighed. "Do you not remember the cell phone I gave you?"

"You mean this?" I said taking out a small device.

"Quite right." She said rolling her eyes.

I made a small 'o' shape with my mouth and looked through my contacts for Claire's name.

I only had 3 contacts: Amelie, Claire and Oliver. I put the phone to my ear and waited, I couldn't hear it ringing.

"Myrnin, it's upside down." Amelie groaned resting her head back against her seat. When I turned it the right way round Claire's voice came on.

I opened my mouth to speak but got stopped when she said:
"Hi this is Claire Danvers, sorry I couldn't get to the phone, leave a message and I'll get back to you."

I sighed and shut the phone.

"Somewhere without signal I see." Amelie said, more to herself than me.

"What are you thinking dear one?" I asked studying her face.

"Are you able to construct a device that allows signal to be transferred to any phone? We could use it to contact Claire; it would also help if we knew where she went could you—."

"I already know that one my dear." I said, interrupting her. She rose an eyebrow telling me to go on. "Her portal went to a beach."

"And do you know which beach that may be."

"I haven't a clue." I replied.

"Then I suggest you get to work, I cannot afford to lose her valuable mind."

"My Amelie," I said. "I thought you actually cared for a moment."

That earned me a cool stare but all she did was dismiss me with a wave of her hand.

So I headed back to my lab with a little more hope for our darling Claire.
