CHAPTER 2
When silence over took the ship Cameron froze. They wouldn't leave her,
would they? She panicked only for a moment before slowly heading back
towards the stairs that went up to the main deck. She was surprised when
someone wrapped a firm hand over her mouth.
"I guess ye missed yer ride." She was positive that it was a man that had caught her and he laughed as he dragged her up to the main deck. She struggled but he was a lot stronger then she was and had a death grip over her mouth and around her middle holding her arms to her sides. When they reached the main deck she saw that many of the crew were seriously injured and they were dragging some of her dead crewmembers below deck to get rid of them. When she saw no sign of her father being one of them she relaxed a bit knowing that he was ok.
"Cap'n, found one they forgot." The man laughed pushing her toward a fairly handsome man who looked to be about 23, only three years her senior. He had dark brown hair that was cut right above his ears and looked to be at least six feet tall, a good foot taller then her.
Jim turned when he heard Zack call to him. The big man pushed the girl he was holding toward him causing her to stumble a bit. She looked to be around his age with light brown hair and emerald green eyes. She was wearing black pants and a tight-fitting black tank top that came just above her bellybutton showing the diamond ring that had been pierced there. She also had a bright red bandana on with a white design on it.
Cameron straightened her back and starred the captain right in his bright blue eyes. She watched as he circled her once and stopped in front of her again.
"I assume you were doing the treasure hunting?" He laughed.
Cameron glared at him and crossed her arms over her chest, but said nothing.
"This is a merchant ship yes, but you should have also noticed that it has the military symbol on its side, which should have given you the first hint that we defiantly wouldn't have any treasure on board but I guess pirates aren't smart enough to look at details." He gave her a smirk.
Cameron was about to lung at the guy but Zack quickly grabbed her by the arms and jerked her back. Not being able to think of a good comeback, Cammie just glared at him.
"She looks pretty harmless to me. Why don't we lock her down in the brig for a few days and see how she does, then we can put her to work. Once we finish with our mission we'll take her to the council and they will decide whither to hang her or not." The captain nodded towards Zack who was holding her and he dragged her down to the lowest deck where he chained her up to the wall in a small room.
"Now you be a good girl." Zack said as he laughed.
"Go ta hell!" She screamed as he closed and locked the wooden door to the small room.
When Cameron finally gave up trying to escape finding that it was futile, she slowly fell to sleep exhausted.
A few hours later someone waked her up. She slowly opened her eyes to see a young girl a little younger then herself knelling in front of her. The girl had tight blonde curls and hazel eyes with specks of green in them. She was wearing red pants and a white tank top.
"Whata ya want?" Cameron snapped at her.
"You have to eat!" The girl simply said as she showed Cameron the bowl of soup she had in her hands.
"I refuse to eat anything from this damn ship. For all I know ya could have poisoned it." Cameron turned away from the girl.
"Your loss!" The girl said standing once more and leaving Cameron alone again.
