A Hope of Escape
Sorry about that nasty sounding note. I know you all thought that was a chapter.I'm sorry but I had to address my reviewers! Please don't flame me!!! (Runs and hides behind random security guard.)
On with the readin'!
"I think yer next." Merdoro's threatening voice filled Jacks ears. He didn't even know if he could take another beating. He had been strong through the first bought, but his back was already broken enough. It was painful just to stand there knowing you were helpless and that there was no way out of this situation. And that made Jack angry.
"Approaching ship off the starboard side!" The crew member up in the crow's nest called down to Merdoro. Immediately everything came to a standstill as Merdoro started calling out orders and his crew began to obey them.
"They're to close to try and escape, we're gonna have to fight men!" Merdoro's loud booming voice was heard above all noise. "Prepare the canons; get yer swords, we're gonna have company fer dinner tonight!" Crew men ran around trying to prepare all the captain said. "Oh, and place our fren Jack in the cell with Miss Mara." Merdoro turned and told the man hold Jack. He brought him back down to the cell in which Mara had been placed, no thrown into. Jack's hands were undone and shoved into the cell. Once there he looked to see Mara laying with her face to the floor and her bloodied shirt facing the top.
As Jack ran to her side, he worried. She didn't look alive. "Mara. Are ye alive? Speak to me Mara, tell yer alive. Please be alive, or its gonna get real boring down here, luv." When he reached her he turned her over a little so that he could see her face. She was barely breathing and Jack could tell she was taking slow, painful breaths. He caressed her face with the back of his knuckles and she stirred a little. "Ah, so yer just sleepin'. Thought ye were dead." He chuckled.
****Aboard the Falcon****
"Will, that ship there, it looks like the infamous Albtraum." First mate Smith told his Captain Will Tuner. Will had acquired the Falcon by chance when it arrived in Port Royal and its Captain mysterious died there. The crew dismantled and the Falcon just sat there and one day Will had to go and fix something at the docks and he saw it. The dock man told Will he could have it, he just needed to use his blacksmith skills to fix it up a bit. When it was seaworthy again, he found a crew and his wife Elizabeth joined him on a sailing adventure. While on it, they ran across the Albtraum.
"I know Smith, I know. That crew needs to be chased away from these waters and we're the people to do it. I know the Navy couldn't with all their tactics and we're a young strong crew we can handle it." He turned to Smith with a smile.
"Will, Will, where are you Will?" Elizabeth's voice was heard. Will looked in the direction of the Captains cabin and saw his beautiful wife standing there trying to find him. He walked over to her and gave a small peck on the lips and a hug. Her eyes met his in a wondrous lock, then it was broken when she faced the ship the Albtraum.
"I hear we're going to fight that ship. I shall have no part in it as I shouldn't." She said in a strong voice. Elizabeth was a strong woman, always willing to fight, but this time she knew she couldn't for two reasons; one the crew of the Albtraum was murderous scoundrels and two, she was 6 months pregnant. And yes, Will was a proud to be father and wouldn't let anything happen to his wife.
"I know you shouldn't Liz dear so you're going to go hide in the cabin." He took her hand and led her into their chambers. There was a secret closet which was big enough for her to fit in with enough room to sit down. Will opened the door and she walked in. Elizabeth turned to face him. "Will, what if I don't see you again?" She asked with a heavy heart. "You will, Elizabeth, trust me, you will. Just hide here and don't make a noise. You should be fine." With that he kissed her hard and broke it quickly and shut the door. She stood there in the dark when she heard it lock.
****The Albtraum****
Jack looked up towards the main deck above him. There were heavy footsteps and the crew was shouting. He only picked up a few words.
"Load canons.Swords.Falcon.Will Turner."
Will Turner? Falcon? *He must be the Captain o' his very own ship. * Jack said in his mind and smiled. He always knew Will was meant to be on the sea even if he didn't become a pirate. Jack was glad that his friend had showed up. Maybe he and Mara could escape when they attacked.
"Ouch.me poor poor poor body." Jack looked back down and saw that Mara had woken up, probably due to the noise. She was laying on her side now and facing Jack when her eyes fluttered open. He moved to her side again and gently waved a piece of hair away that had fallen in her face. Her beautiful black eyes found his and they were locked in a sort of trance, both of them were. All he could do was stare back and she returned the stare with the same daze- like look. He was the first to fall when he heard footsteps right above him and even louder shouting.
"Jack. are ya ok?" He looked back down at Mara when she asked this.
"Um.yeah, I be ok, but it's yer body that's worrying me. Ye don't look to well, and. well, yeah that's expected cuzz ye jus' got whipped, but." He was cut off when she sat up and kissed him hard on the lips. It took him a moment to comprehend what she had just done, or begun as she was still kissing him ferociously.
She felt the presence of his tongue on her lips and his hand snaked its way around to the back of her head and he pulled her tightly against him. They kissed hard for what seemed like eternity until there was yelling above. All the sudden, Jack broke the kiss and slammed himself on top of Mara.
"Jack, what's going on? Why are ye doin' this?" She asked in surprise.
"Lets jus' say I've been in a cell when canon balls come rippin' through." He smiled down to her. Above, there were gunshots. The fight between the Albtraum and the Falcon had begun.
Woooo okky dokky. Aren't you all happy that Jack didn't get hurt in this chapter? AREN'T YOU HAPPY THAT WILL AND ELIZABETH SHOWED UP??? Lol gosh you people kept pestering me to make them come into the story. sheesh. But it's all good now. Looks like things are clearing up for our two adventurers. I hope. Please do the R&R thing. And I don't mean rest and recovery. (Points to review button.)
