Chapter 2
As soon as Madison left the room in a hurry, I looked back at her father and raised an eyebrow as he dropped a bar of white soap into the water.
It splashed, making drops of water splash my face. "She yours?" I asked, not looking at him anymore. The man scoffed and went to poke the fire logs with a black poker. "She's my sisters. I kept her after her mum died."
"Sorry to hear that." I mumbled, washing off. My mind still crept back to the innocent little girl standing before me like she had never even seen another man besides her uncles. Probably hasn't.
She was like a fox almost. Her brown hair had golden streaks made from being in the sun for a deal of time and her face was pale with freckles across her nose and cheeks.
It wasn't only in her looks, but in the way she snuck around almost un- noticed and afraid like. I was surprised she didn't turn and run when I spoke to her.
I turned to the man as he ran a hand over his grey hair, or lack there of. It was slowly fading on top of his head and only existed behind his ears and on the top of his neck.
I licked my lips before standing out of the tub, wrapping my towel around my waist. Just before I could blink, a loud blast sounded through the night seconds before a cannon split the window near the kitchen wide open.
I dove for my clothes as the man dove towards the stairs. Seconds later, I had my trousers on and Madison was down stairs sticking her head out the open window. "Oh my--" She shouted as another cannon blasted through the air.
I grabbed the back of her skirt, pulling her back. "Stay here.." Her uncle commanded as he ran outside with a small pisol in his hand. I shook my head and stepped toward the door. Just as my foot hit the step outside, I jumped back barely missing a bullet that slammed into the door.
"Don't leave me alone.." She grabbed my shoulder and I sighed, looking out at the havoc that was in the streets. "I won't.." With a growl, I pushed the door close and directed her to get something to cover the windows with.
~!~!
I swept my arm over the small coffee table and brought it to the pirate as he quickly set it over the window, resting it on the counter of the kitchen.
"This should do." He winked. Before I could thank him for staying, the door burst open and Jack grabbed my hand bringing me to sit on the floor with him.
"Check tha upstairs!" A voice growled, making my blood freeze with fear. I peeked over the counter to see a man with stragely black hair standing in the hallway of my house, looking around.
My breath caught in my throat as the man looked around my uncles study. I shook my head as he took his sword in his hand and swept it across the third row of books in the bookcase.
When he peirced the blade in a thick black book, I stood up, making Jack pull me back down. "You don't understand!" I whispered, freeing myself from his grasp.
He put his arm around my waist and pulled me back against the floor. I fell ontop of him and I had no other choice but to stand back up and yell. "Stop!!" The pirate turned around and I heard a groan from Jack on the floor. "An' why should I be stoppin'?"
"Because..that is mine!" I looked around for any kind of weapon and only found a frying pan to protect me with.
"I don' wanna be hurtin' ya lass. Run away and we won' be thinkin' anymore about ya." He turned back to the book case and grabbed the book, opened it and found what he was looking for.
The gold from the necklace inside the secret compartment sparkled on his dirty face. I could do nothing else besides throwing the frying pan at him. It missed, of course, and hit the wall, making a hole where it had landed.
"Tha' was not very nice, lass." I gulped and stepped back, grabbing the side of the counter as he stepped forward. The book was in his left hand with his sword stuck out pointing to me in his right.
I closed my blue eyes, fearing the worst. "You wont be layin' a finger on her!" Jack growled from behind me.
I opened my eyes just in time to see him land in front of me, stricking his own sword against the pirates. I continued to stare in awe at their fight. But, the invading pirate stumbled back, dropping the book onto the floor.
"C'mon BOYS!" He shouted, grabbing the necklace and pushing Jack into me. We both crashed to the floor as the three other men came fumbling down the stairs, holding much of my stuff.
I shook my head, pushing Jack off of me as I crawled to the book. He had taken the necklace, but, he still left something valuble.
"That was stupid.." I glared at the man on the floor behind me and ripped the front cover off of the book, smiling at the rolled up peice of parchment that lay inside the binding. "What did he want that you didn' want to give up?"
"My father was a pirate. He sailed everywhere and on one stop, he met my mother. After one night, I was concieved and my mother never saw him again."
I paused in my speech to walk upstairs to see what was left of my ran- sacked room. My matress was over turned and I shook my head, stepping over things to get to my dresser. Jack was right behind me, signaling me with his hands to continue.
"However, just after I was born, my mother passed away from pnemonia; she left me to stay with my Uncle Charlie. My father then returned, intending to give my mother a gift. When he discovered she was dead, he gave me the gift. It was that necklace."
I stood up and shoved a few things into a bag along with a dagger and a pistol I had hidden under the drawer of my dresser. "And?!"
"That necklace is a key. A key that unlocks not only a burried treasure, but a whole under ground cave of gold that my father had, over the years of him being a pirate, collected. My uncle never told me himself, but I overheard him and my late aunt speaking one night."
I stood up straight and backed into him, ordering him to untie my bodess in the back. He did so, without words and waited for me to say more.
As I stepped out of the dress, I casually threw it on the bed, before stepping into a pair of black work trousers that fit tightly around my ankles. I put on a red vest with nothing under it and turned around, tieing the strings along the chest.
"If you help me find the one thing I have as a reminder of both of my parents, I will split the treasure with you...fifty-fifty." His eyes nearly popped out of his head. Jack regained himself and brought his hand up to his chin, tapping it gently.
"Fifty-fifty eh?" I nodded again and threw the sack over my left shoulder, sticking my hand out for him to shake.
"Deal."
