Chapter Twenty: Prisoners

Will awoke as he felt his side burn. He turned his head to the side and saw a girl in what looked like a school uniform and another with a long green skirt.

"Oh, good, you're awake. My name is Kagome and this is Sango."

"What are you doing and how did you get here?" Will asked.

"Kagome is rubbing your wound with alcohol and then will bandage it so that you do not get an infection. As she said, my name is Sango. We are also hostages. Our company found an entire village massacred by Naraku, whom you have no doubt seen. A demon called a Bird of Paradise then grabbed us and brought us here. We saw your wound, and we figured that it could use a woman's touch because of the poor bandage work you seem to have done," Sango answered.

"Oh." Will felt Jacklyn move at his side. She was awake now, and as she sat up, she rubbed her eyes. When she was done, her gaze fell upon Sango and Kagome. "Daddy, who are they?" Jacklyn questioned.

"This is Kagome," he said, pointing at her, "and this is Sango." Now he pointed to Sango.

"Now that you both know us, who are you?" Kagome asked.

"My name is Will," Will introduced, "and this i…"

"And I'm Jacklyn. Jacklyn Sparrow Turner," Jacklyn interrupted. Kagome and Sango both chuckled at this bold statement. Kagome stopped laughing. She was remembering the talk she had with Jack. Hadn't he mentioned a Jacklyn? she thought.

"You wouldn't happen to know a Jack Sparrow?" Kagome asked.

"Captain Jack," Jacklyn corrected.

"How do you know him?" Will said with a glare at Kagome.

"He has been traveling with us for a while now. Kagome has been saved by him," Sango explained.

"Is Mr. Sparrow okay?" Jacklyn looked up at Sango.

"He had his back sin ripped open. Other than that, he will live. He has been looking for you."

"So," Will said, "Jack is fine, and he has been looking for us; I should have put more trust in him." Kagome continued to wrap Will's side as they talked about themselves. None of them noticed Naraku watching from the door and listening to the talk of his prisoners.
