Alright JillValentine44, I wouldn't want me heartie to die. So to my most loyal reader I give you chappy 7.
CHAPTER 7: NOT AGAIN!
Connor became aware of her name being called harshly from what seemed like miles away. She opened one eye and stared straight into the face of a man she had long hoped had forgotten about her. She closed her eye and wished that it was a dream, but when she opened her eyes again she still saw him. She let out a moan of sadness.
"Come, come now Connor. You can't be upset to see me." The man said, unlocking her cell and coming in, squatting next to her.
"I can and will be." She tried to stand, but found she could barely lift a finger.
"Is that any way to talk to the person who saved your life. I could have left you in the sea to die."
"Now I really wish you had." She said staring into the man's eyes.
The man was Captain Nate Bathers, Captain of the Red Star. This was the man she had trusted, the man who had betrayed her. This was their opponent in reaching Atlantis.
"Now pet, what I want to know, is how exactly you got out here. Hmmm?"
"What do you think idiot, I flew. I was on a ship. And I would appreciate it if you didn't call me pet."
"Why were you on the ship?"
"Because I didn't feel like swimming across the sea."
"Your trying my patience Connor. Were you by any chance leading someone to the treasure?"
Connor remained silent, lowering her eyes.
"You were, you told someone else. You should have left that Connor. I'm getting it."
"And I would rather die than see your hands on the treasure!" Conoor spat at him.
"Your lucky that we had to stop in a Port for supplies my dear, or we would be ahead of the other ship, if that is how you feel."
"You'll never get it."
"I bet I do. They have to know that it's in Ireland by now, but do they actually know where?"
Connor's eyes grew wide and she cursed herself for being so secretive towards Jack.
"I though so, why don't you sit here Connor, recover your strength. Your home." Captain Nate stood and walked out of the cell, locking her back in.
Connor sat in the corner of the cell, remembering all to well what happened here.
FLASHBACK
"I told you time and time again Connor, don't push me. What were you doing talking with Smith?"
"Nate I have to talk to somebody."
Nate responded by slapping her. He took her down to the brig and threw her in a cell.
"You can stay here until I've cooled down.
END FLASHBACK
Connor involuntarily shivered at the memory. She buried her head in her arms and sleep fell on her.
She awoke to the sound of keys and a cell door opening. She looked up to find Nate walking into the cell.
"How are you feeling?"
"Go to Hell!"
"Better, I'm glad. I need to know what ship it was Connor, who'd you tell?"
"What do you want from me?"
"At the moment the name of the ship."
"You'll never catch it. It's the fastest ship in the Caribbean."
"The Black Pearl!. You told Captain Jack Sparrow. Connor. . ."
"You might as well give up, there is no way, you'll catch up with them."
"We will, the storm had to have slowed them down. Why did you leave Connor?"
"Stupid question. Why would I have stayed?"
"You know I didn't mean any of it. I just don't like it when you keep things from me."
"Which made you whip me! Nate, I wouldn't have told you no matter what you did. I was ready to leave before you did that. I was not going to stay here in an abusive relationship. You are one evil bastard!"
"Connor I loved you, I still do. We can try again."
"No!"
"Why not? You loved me, I know you did."
"Then, not now."
"Damn it Connor, you will be mine again, and you will love me!"
"No Nate I will never be yours again."
"We'll see about that. After all, you will be on this ship for the rest of the voyage. Until you decide to stand beside me, you'll be down here in the brig, with stale bread as your food."
"You son of a bitch!" Connor yelled, as she helplessly watched Nate lock her cell door and disappear above deck.
"I am so screwed. What's worse, I want Jack. I'm sorry Jack, for not telling you where the treasure was or that I loved you." Connor said to the bars as she nestled into her corner and could do nothing but wait.
