A Pirate's Struggle
Disclaimer: Well, you have to read my first story, "Pirate Meetings" before you read this. That disclaimer is the same as this one. I only own the characters I made up and the storyline. Everything else belongs to others such as the Walt Disney Company.except for the songs in here. (
~I know I've said this before, but I would like to thank all of my reviewers. It means a lot to me that you like my story. Anyway, here's the next chapter, mates~
Chapter 19: Live or Die
Kate was pulled away from her companions and held with her arms behind her back. "JACK!" she shouted as they both turned around and saw her being held by David Norrington. Both the Captain and his son unsheathed their swords and pointed them at Dave. "Release her," Captain Sparrow said calmly.
"I don't think so," David replied as he pulled out a dagger and placed it at her throat. Kate winced when she felt the cold steel at her neck, but tried to stay perfectly still. "Just let go of her before we have to force ye, mate."
"How can ye do that when I'm the one with my knife at her artery? One wrong move and she's dead."
"You won't kill me," Kate interrupted forcefully. David looked down at her and gave a sly smile. "Why won't I?"
"Because you're a coward and you want me to marry you.that's why!" The steel was pressed harder at her throat and she flinched at the pain. David snapped his fingers and about twenty officers came up behind Jack and his father with their guns ready to fire. "Now, you all can come quietly.or we could just kill you now. Make your choice!" Captain Sparrow looked at his son who was ready for a fight and then over at Kaitlin. She was under pressure and in a horrible position to battle. He then saw her wink at him. His returned look questioned her, but she showed no emotion.
In one swift motion, Kaitlin stepped on David's foot and grabbed his knife from his hand. She then elbowed him in the side and stabbed him in his right arm. He cried out in pain and fell to the ground as she took her place in front of the Captain and his son. She whipped out her sword and began to clash it with the navy officers, blocking blow after blow. Captain Sparrow and his son joined in and began to clash swords with the navy.
They ended up killing half of them and then ran through the streets. Kaitlin led the way, followed by Jack, and then his father. They pushed through the crowds, but what was left of the navy continued to follow. "This way," Kate said as she motioned them to follow her into an alley. They all hid behind barrels of alcohol and watched the navy pass them. They all sighed relief, but then Kaitlin saw Jack and his father get hit over the head with guns. When she turned her head, she saw a red outfit and then darkness.
Hours later, Kaitlin's eyes fluttered open. The bright sunlight shone through the window as she tried to sit up. Her head ached and when she made an attempt to move, she fell back down on the bed.wait.a BED? She couldn't move her arms or legs either. Kate glanced at her wrists and ankles, noticing that she was chained to the bedposts. She screamed at the top of her lungs and Jack came running through the door. He stroked her cheek and kissed her, soothing her stress. For some reason his kiss felt different. His lips were a different texture. When Kaitlin opened her eyes, she saw blond hair hanging around a pair of green eyes. She bit down on the man's lips and he pulled away in shock. "DAVID, WHAT THE HELL?" Kaitlin had seen Jack, but it was all a dream.David had been her kisser. "I thought you needed a moment to calm down," he replied coolly.
"You had no bloody right to kiss me."
"And you had no bloody right to bite me," Dave said as he showed her the palm of his hand, which was covered in blood. She had bitten him so hard that she had drawn blood. She continued to try and free herself, but no avail. She was chained in irons, obviously made by her father in Port Royal. "Where am I?" she asked.
"You are in my room. We made it back to port yesterday."
"Where's Jack? Where's Captain Sparrow?" Kaitlin asked frantically, shaking her arms and legs violently. David walked over to her and sat down on the bed, resting a hand on her shoulder. She shook it off and stared evilly at him, trying to show how angry she was becoming. "Well.those pirates have been locked up. They will be hanged at the end of the week.after we torture them."
"NO!" she shouted back, "Let them go!"
"We will.when we hang them."
"David.please don't do this."
"Sorry, my dear.but I'm bound by law.as are you," Dave replied as he unlocked her ankles so she could move more. He helped her sit up and stared into her eyes. When he leaned in to kiss Kaitlin, she spat in his face. "Gross," he whispered as he wiped her saliva from his face.
"What do you mean that I'm 'bound by law'?"
"You have an important choice to make."
"And what would that be?" she asked. David snapped his fingers and two navy officers and Commodore Norrington came strolling in. The Commodore stood in the doorway with his arms crossed and the navy officers surrounded Kaitlin from behind and unlocked her arms. When they grabbed her, she kicked forward, flipping upside down and landing behind them. She grabbed their swords and kicked them forward so they lay on the ground. When Kate looked back up at David and the Commodore, they were laughing. "What's so funny?" she asked.
"Did you honestly think we were that thick?" the Commodore asked as he snapped his fingers and four officers came in with their swords unsheathed and pointed at Kaitlin. She looked at all of them and moved backwards as they came closer. When she reached the wall, she threw one sword at a soldier and hit him directly in the chest, killing him. "Okay.three more," she said under her breath as she elbowed the window behind her and glanced over her shoulder. Only rocks lay below her.sharp rocks. She gulped and looked back at the soldiers who were now so close that she couldn't fight. She threw the sword to the wooden floor and raised her arms in defeat. "That's my girl," Dave stated as the soldiers grabbed her arms and tied them behind her back.
"I'm NOT your girl!" Kaitlin shouted as she was seated on the bed. She sat with her eyes to the ground and knew that she was done for. She was a pirate.and this was going to be her undoing. "Miss Turner, I would like to inform you of a special circumstance."
"Then just say it.and I would prefer to be referred to as Ms. Sparrow!"
"Miss Turner, you have-"
"MS. SPARROW!" Dave knew he had to shut her up, so he slapped Kaitlin across the face. She showed no emotion. To her, it felt as if she had been smacked in the face by a pillow. He wasn't that strong when it came to hitting someone. "Miss Turner, you have two choices."
"Okay," she said curiously.
"You are a pirate, a fugitive of the British Crown."
"Yes, I know that.anything else we don't know?" she asked sarcastically.
"Therefore," Dave began, "You will be hanged with Jack and his father. There is however, another option."
"May I interrupt your little speech?"
"As you wish," Dave replied honorably.
"What about the rest of the crew? Are they to be hanged as well?"
"They were thrown in the cells and had their throats cut this morning." Kate's eyes widened as she looked toward the ground in astonishment. That was something unexpected. "Every single one?" she asked.
"Correct, my dear."
"Let me get this straight.you got them to give up the Pearl and then killed them?"
"I had no choice."
"You.fucking.BASTARD!" she shouted, jumping to her feet and charging at him. Sadly, the soldiers grabbed her and held her back, pinning her to the bed as she continued to kick and scream. She struggled violently, but it didn't help. The men were too strong for her, even though she was a pirate. "SILENCE!" Commodore Norrington yelled. Kaitlin immediately stopped moving and looked at him. "David, you may continue. We don't have all day," the Commodore stated.
"Thank you.now.back to earlier. Miss Turner, you can either be hanged at the end of the week.or.you can marry me and live a good and happy life." Kaitlin looked at him, anger beginning to reform. "What about Captain Sparrow and Jack?"
"The will die for their crimes against the crown."
"Then forget it! I'd rather die with them than marry you!" David looked hurt, but kept a straight face. "You can spend a week in the jail and think about this matter." With a snap of David's fingers, the soldiers grabbed Kaitlin and pulled her out of the room. "YOU FILTHY SON-OF-A- BITCH! DAVID, YOU LET ME GO!" He showed no reaction as she disappeared from his sight.
