Chapter 10:- A few weeks later.
It'd been a few weeks since I talked to Maccus, and during that few weeks, we'd noticed we had a stowaway on board. Actually, it was just after we left another caribbean island after reburying Jones' heart, that we noticed we'd left someone behind...and when Jones had seen what the guy was doing he sent us all to stop him, only we got there too late, and the guy had already run off with the heart.
So now we're under the control of the EITC (East India Trading Company) and doing their dirty work, which of course, includes destroying other pirate ships.
"This bites...he thinks he's all noble and rich by supposedly ridding the world of pirates...but in actuality, he's making things worse" I said.
"I totally agree with you Em...but we can't do nothin' about it...he has Jones at pistol point" Koleniko said.
I nodded, yeah, alright. Beckett had Jones by the short and curlies...but hey...you know what to do if someone has you by those...chop them off. Beckett wouldn't destroy the captain of the only ship that could sail underwater, but that also meant, we're under his control for a looooong, loooooong time.
Crap.
XXXXXPOTCXXXXX
I was sitting on the little platform at the stern of the ship, looking out to the sea...
"Beautiful ain't it?" A husky voice asked.
I turned to see Maccus stood there.
"Yeah...yeah it is" I said.
He climbed up next to me and sat down, staring out into the ocean, well, he wanted to make me think that he was looking out into the ocean, but when I moved my eyes to the side, I could see he was staring at me.
"Do I have something on my face?" I asked.
He looked away in an instant, and I pushed down any thought that he may have feelings for me. I'm the only woman on a ship full of men...I'm bound to get longing looks and other things. But I couldn't help but have a little bit of hope that somewhere deep inside of him, he has the same feelings as I do.
"Emily...I have something I need to tell you..." he began.
I leaned towards him and he was about to tell me what it was, when we heard some commotion on the ship. I jumped down, as did Maccus and we walked towards the commotion...only to see Norrington and his men stood there. Then we heard thumping, and Jones came on deck.
"Go...all o' ye, and take that infernal thing with you...I will not have it on my ship" he said.
A voice came from nowhere.
"Oh I'm sorry to hear that...because I will" it said.
Beckett!
I scowled.
"Because it seems to be the only way to ensure that this ship do as directed by the company" he continued.
He then motioned to the others to take the heart.
"We need prisoners to interrogate, and that only works if we have survivors" he said.
Jones scowled at him.
"The Dutchman sails as its captain commands" he said.
"And its captain is to sail it as commanded" Beckett said.
I snorted.
"I would have thought you'd have learned that when I ordered you to kill your little pet" Beckett said.
Oh, I so badly wanted to introduce my two friends to his face.
"This is no longer your world Jones. The immaterial has become...immaterial" he said
That was it.
"That makes no sense" I said.
He looked at me.
"And who is this?" He asked.
I snapped at his hand as he reached it towards me.
"None of your business" I said.
He smiled and walked off.
"Oh how I'd love to wipe that petulant smirk of his ugly face" I muttered.
I heard Jimmy Legs chuckle.
"Wouldn't we all" he said.
We all went back to what we were doing, and I found Maccus again.
"What was it you were going to tell me before we got interrupted?" I asked.
He shook his head.
"It don't matter" he said.
He continued on his way to the crews quarters and I shrugged, going over to Jones...Oh I had a plan.
"Captain Jones...I have a plan to get Beckett off our backs" I said.
He looked at me.
"I'm listening" he said.
XXXXXPOTCXXXXX
After I'd told him my plan, he was smiling his evil smile.
"Ye think that'll work?" He asked.
I shrugged.
"I dunno. He's smart, but its worth a try" I said.
I then walked off, giving him time to think about what I'd just told him. I sighed and assumed the position that I was in before.
Who knew being on a ship and being commanded could be so damn boring?
XXXXXPOTCXXXXX
