Hey! Here's the second from last chapter! :D I hope you enjoy! THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS! :D
Chapter 10: Torn
Fred's blond hair flew up from the frozen salt waters. He coughed & shivered uncontrolably. The water was just as he'd told Daphne it would be, like a thousand knives stabbing you. He faught through his pain, to fight for his love. Daphne was no where in sight. His heart pounded so hard it hurt his chest. The scars from his previous accidents stung. He swam the icey waters in search of the helpless red head.
"Da..phne...!" He shouted out a shivery cry. Fred grabbed onto a piece of drift wood. He heard only the hurch sound of the brutal winds & crashing waves. No reply from Daphne's innocent voice. Fred spotted something floating beside him, he reached over & grabbed it. He had no feeling in his hand, they were completely num. It was the necklace Daphne was wearing the night the ship sank. He knew with out a doubt, she'd been wearing it right before they dropped into the dark sea for frozen ice. "She didn't make it..." he thought to himself. Barely able to whisper, he again tried calling her name. Suddenly his heart broke into a million little pieces, he felt as if there was no use fighting any of it anymore, if she didn't live, he didn't want to either. There was simply nothing he had to live for if she wasn't alive. She ruined her life by coming back to rescue him. Id she would've caught a life boat she'd never gotten stuck in such a horrible accident. Fred rested his head on the drift wood. His heart lost beats by the minutes. He went into a daze, his whole body was num. He knew he promised never to let go, never to leave, but what now? He almost had no choice. He could feel himself not even half alive anymore.
A loud and uncalled for, laugh came from behind, Fred manged to open his, not so ocean blue eyes. He almost thought he was in a nightmare, spotting a pirate & a pirate ship, coming towards him. He looked up, his eyes half closed, seeing pirates. Fred heard a helpless weak, but loud enough cry for him to hear. It was surely, no other than his sweet red head. Dangling from the pirate ships tip. Tied, ready to be dropped & crushed under the wooden boat. Fred suddenly felt a strength in himself that he hadn't felt before. And didn't know how it was possible, he was minutes from death.
"Freddie!" She cried, thinking he'd already passed away. He looked up once again, letting out a weak helpless cry.
"Daph.." He shouted. Daphne tried wiggling herself free of the chains. Tears flooded Daphne's face. She was in pain & couldn't stand to see Fred barely alive in the freezing water, dieing, so innocent.
"Freddie, don't let go." She cried, sobbing & shivereing.
"I'll never let go, even I'm gone. I'm still not letting go." He managed to say it loud enough for her to barely hear. Daphne sobbed harder.
"Don't go Freddie! I love y-you!" She said shaky through her sobs. She wiggled harder & almost slipped free.
"Daphne, don't.."He said weakly. Daphne slipped through, ignoring the cry & falling into the deep black sea. "Daphne!" He cried shaky, Daphne's head flew up from the water & she swam towards the blond.
"Freddie, I love you. Don't ever forget that. It can't end like this for us. To live my dream you've got to be alive. I hope all your dreams come true, even if I'm not there. Some beautiful woman will be more than blessed to find & marry such a great man like yourself."
"Daphne, will you marry me? If we make it out of this mess." Fred asked weakly.
"I-I.."She replied before getting cutted off.
Daphne gasped then jumped forward into him, pushing him out of the ships harm. Daphne was caught in the ships draft, pulling her under. Fred noticed the soft heroic touch was gone. He opened his eyes, she was no where in sight & the ship & left. He cleared his throat. "Daphne! Daphne! Daaaaaphneeee!" He cried loudly. Suddenly a bright light flashed in his eyes. It was a ship, coming to his rescue. It felt like hours before it finally arrived to him. They pulled him out of the water.
"Sir, are you alright?" A man asked. Fred moaned, they wrapped him in warm blankets, then sent him in a special room. Hoping to spare his life.
It was a day later, when a miracle, doctors called, Fred eyes opened. He was already stationed in a safe medical hospital.
"Mr. can you tell us your name?" A doctor asked. Fred froze, trying to recall all he'd been through.
"Fredrick Herman Jones.." He answered.
"Thank you. How are you feeling?" She asked.
"Okay. Where am I?" He asked, confused.
"You were found out at sea, where the ship wrecked on it's way to America."
"Where's Daphne!" Fred shouted, remembering the horrible imagine of her scared face before being pulled under.
"I'm sorry, who?"
"Daphne Ann Blake! She was there too! She's a beautiful woman, with red hair, dazzling diamond blue eyes that take my breath away. She fits perfectly in my arms, she has a voice of pure gold. She saved my life!" Fred explained, stressing himself with his his words.
"Sir, let me go ask." The doctor said, she could tell he truly cared for her with all his heart by his sweet words. Fred felt his heart pound, as he waited for the news.
"I'm sorry but, we don't have her." The doctor said.
And his heart was torn.
