The Struggle Between Two Pirates
Chapter 2: The Kidnap
But on one cold night a few miles from shore, Katrina did not see it coming, the worse of all betrayals, Jack had gone mad and had taken her in her sleep, took one of the small boats and rowed to an island nearby. Katrina too drunk and passed out did not feel a thing. The very next morning she awoke on a bed in a strange place. It was neither the Pearl nor the Dauntless. Unable to see straight from her heavy hangover, Jack appears as a blur looking down at her. She sits up and tries to look harder. Jack looking distraught speaks.
"Are you feeling alright?"
In a low, angered voice, "Jack! Where am I and why am I here, with you?"
"Ah well, we are far from The Pearl and The Dauntless in an old woman's home. She was kind enough to let us stay for a night."
"Why are we here?!" she yelled. She became furious and desiring to strangle Jack.
"After two years sailing with that man and watching you attend to his every need, I went mad as it were. Oddly 'nough, you're the one I need."
"Jack.you don't need me, you have your wenches."
Jack gave her a cold stare wanting to slap her across the face, but he held back. Once again Katrina spoke.
"Do you realize that you've made the biggest mistake? Barbossa will have your head."
"Ah, but Barbossa doesn't know where we are.'
"I will have your head!" Katrina reaches for her pistol and doesn't find it on her, she tries for her sword, but there was none. She had been stripped of her weapons. She looks up at Jack surprised. The look turned to an angry one. She growled underneath her breath, giving him the cold stare right back at him.
"Where are my effects, Jack?"
"They're gone. I feel a lot safer now that you have no weapons."
Katrina gets up from the bed and walks towards Jack. Jack steps backward trying to keep his distance from Katrina.
"But I have power that is far more effective than the use of any mere weapon."
Jack bumps into a wall behind him with no more room to step back and Katrina faces him with her eyes burning through his. Jack, delirious enough as he is, swore to himself that he saw flames in Katrina's eyes. He pulls out his pistol finally realizing he could have long ago. Katrina sees it and steps back.
"So, you want to play games is it?"
"I just needed some time alone with you since we have none on those ships. I'm lonely. I need someone to talk to."
"What makes you think I'm the one to talk to about your problems, eh? And do you realize you left your precious Pearl? You can't go back. You'll be dead the second you step foot in either The Pearl or The Dauntless.
"I don't intend to go back."
Katrina becomes confused. In front of her was no longer Jack Sparrow in her eyes, but a lonely man who would kill his loneliness with the company of whores. It was what a pirate was all about, being free and without cares of love.
"Have you had too much Rum again? You're not yourself."
Jack didn't answer as he tried to remember himself if he has any Rum lately. Katrina then wondered what would happen when Barbossa finds out that her and Jack are missing.
