A Stary Night

Chapter 2:

The warm breeze blew my still damp hair into my face as I made my way down the almost abandoned streets of Port Royal. Most of it occupants were already safe in their beds or either in the bar. The only few that still scattered the streets were an officer and a man stumbleing home after having too much to drink. I knew that if the officer looked over and saw a young woman out wondering the streets at this time he would probably question her, so I quickly looked for some place to stay for the night. Then tomorow I would look for a ship or something that was leaving to someplace eles. I haven't been anywhere except Port Royal in my entire life, but I guessed that almost any place would work to start a new life.

Most people in my shoes would have probably of been to scared or hurt emotionly to do what I was doing. And I would have to if it wasn't for the last words my mother spoke to me on her death bed. She told me to never let anyone make me think that I couldn't do anything that I wanted to do, Not to let anything get me down. And I have tried to live by that, although it has been very hard sometimes. I was deep in my thoughts when I heard fast foot steps aproach behind me and someone shout.

"hey you there, whats your bussiness out here so late?." It was an officer which was quickly making his way toward me. I guessed by my old rugged dress and the fact that I was out so late that he thought that I was a pirate. I looked over my shoulder and saw that he was comming up on me quite quickly. So I ran around the conner of a building and into the first door I saw. Luckly the door was unlocked but as soon as I entered I quickly locked it before looking around. 'I hope no ones here.' I thought to myself. The next thing I heard was someone knocking on the door and so I ran to hide behind a large pile of hay. There was no light except that which the moon supplied that flooded through the small window on the other side of the building so it was hard to see. When I was almost at my hiding spot I slammed my toe into asome kind of table or something and had to hold in a cry of surprise and pain.

"Yes, who is there? It's only the middle of the night ya know." Came a mans voice from what I guessed was a room in the back of the small building. Just then a figure moved across the room and spoke when he reached the door.

"Who is there?" Asked the man.

"The Royal Navy sir. Can you please open your door for a moment." Came the voice from the other side.

The man opened the door and light suddenly flooded the room. I scooted back a little bit more to make sure that I was completely out of their line of vision. I could now see the man more clearly although it was only his back that was turned my way. He had brown hair that reached to about his shoulders, and he looke dto be almost six foot I would guess. He also looked very musclear.

"Did a young woman just come into this room sir?"

"No, The door was locked. And I would have heard if anyone had come in." Replied the man in a slightly annoyed voice from being woken up.

"Well, alright then Mr. Turner. Sorry for disturbing you." The officer said and then quickly left, going to look for me else where I guessed.

I thought that the man. Mr. Turner as he had been called, would have gone back to bed after he shut the door. But instead he stood really still, obviously listening for any sounds that I might make. He turned in a small circle looking all over the room. I tried to be really quite as to not give myself away, but at the same moment a small rat emerged from the hay and started to scimper over to near my still body. I had always been afriad of rats and so tried to silently scare it away. But when I tried to scoot myself over a little, the hay made a noise. The mans head jerked my way and he started to make his way over to me.

I closed my eyes as if afraid that the white in them might give me away. I hoped that he would turn away and look eles where or just go back to bed thinking that a rat or something had made the noise, but I had no such luck. In a matter of seconds he saw me.

"Miss? Miss, may I ask you why you are hiding in my shop? And why the Royal Navy are looking for you?"
