A/N: Oh...my...gosh!!! I give you all permission to torture me!!! It's been almost a month since I last updated! AHHHH!!! I am soooo sorry!!! Holy crap I am horrible... well I finally decided that I should sit down and write something before someone hunts me down, this was also the only day I could find time to write since I am sick and it's Thanksgiving (well in Canada it is anyway). So okay, it's been so long that I had to go back and read my own last chapter to find out what was happening. You know it's bad when you have to re-read your own stuff. Well not much has happened (except for the awesomely cool Metallica concert that I went to!!!) so I don't know why I took so long to update...hmmm...
Nanomachine: Thank you for your review!! I'm sorry that it took so long for me to update that you had to send me an email. Well I'm glad you like romance because, hopefully, there will be some more in this chapter! Thanks for your review!
Agent Katy: Thank you for your review... lol and no I don't know the sound when you pop off a Snapple lid, I HATE Snapple. Yeah I've heard of the Killers, I just haven't gotten around to checking out their stuff... I should try and do that. Well any who thank you for your review!!!
Kurama13: Thank you so much for your review!!!
Everywhere Yet Nowhere: Thank you for telling me about the '' thing... I'll try and remember. Lol your weapons sound very... scary... yet interesting. Japan? That's far away... I'm afraid to go to Japan, don't ask it's just some stupid phobia that I have. I haven't found that Mango Summer Sorbet stuff...so maybe it is only available where you live, that sucks! GAH! They might be pairing Jack with someone?!?!?!?! THAT IS NOT COOL!!!! Why would they do something stupid like that?! GRRR! Well thank you for your review!!!
Elaneon: Thank you for your review! I like to think that Jack and Heidi have nice chemistry too, so things should get interesting. Yes, the supernatural events... I don't know what I'm going to do about those, but they definitely make things more interesting. Well, thanks for your review!!!
A/N: Okay... crud the phone's ringing... 10 min later... right okay you probably don't care that my phone was ringing but oh well. FINALLY WE CAN PROCEED!!! AHHHH CHAPTER 8 AHHHH HOW EXCITING!!! Okay here you go...
Recap:
Heidi stared at him in disbelief, how he dare invite himself on her ship. She did need help though, so there was really no sense in sending him back if he was just going to end up with her again anyway.
They arrived on her ship and Heidi stormed to her quarters and grabbed a bottle of rum, she put it on the table and walked over to her curtains and shut them. She stomped back over to the rum and sat down, drinking nearly half the bottle as she did so. Jack watched her little temper tantrum from the door and quirked an eyebrow.
He followed her actions by taking a bottle of rum and placing it on the table, and then he walked to the curtains and opened them again before walking back to sit across from her. He gave her a cheeky grin and took a swig of rum.
Heidi sighed; this was going to be the worst adventure of her life.
(A/N: That wasn't a very good recap)
Devil's Cruelty Chapter 8
"So luv why didn't ye send me back to me own ship?" Jack asked, from the railing he was leaning against.
Heidi's grip tightened on the wheel, "do ye want me t' send ye back?"
"No."
"Then don't ask questions," she snapped, really wishing that he wasn't so nosy.
Jack was silent for a moment before he continued, "was it because ye realized that ye need me 'elp or is it because I'm just so gorgeous tha' ye couldn't bear t' be without me?"
"Ye'd like tha' wouldn't ye Sparrow?" Heidi spun around and faced him angrily, "ye want t' know why yer on me ship? Yer on me ship Sparrow because ye are the only one who can 'elp me get rid of this bloody bracelet an yer also the only one who can give directions. Now answer something for me captain; do ye like cold dark places?"
Jack was silent.
"It would be in yer best interest t' answer me." She was angry...extremely angry.
"No."
"Then keep yer mouth shut or go back to yer ship."
"Fine ye want me gone so much? Then I'll leave!" Jack pulled a Heidi and dove off the side of her ship (A/N: Okay what's with people jumping off of ships... oh wait... I'm the writer... but still!)
Heidi rolled her eyes and let out a growl of frustration, why did he have to be so difficult?! Then again, she shouldn't talk.
"Let down the anchor gentlemen," Heidi said and walked across her ship as she waited for the Black Pearl to come up beside her.
"Captain Kessler? What's going on?" Sly asked, coming up behind her on her left.
"Wish I knew, Sly," was the response he got.
The Black Pearl was soon beside her and a plank was being lowered between them. Jack was standing at the helm and he did not look pleased when Heidi boarded his ship and came towards him.
"Wha' do ye wan' Kessler?"
"I wan' t' talk t' ye," she replied, raising her hand to shield her eyes from the sun.
Jack grumbled and handed Gibbs the wheel, he ran down the stairs and pushed the door to his quarters open allowing her access to his room.
"Wha' do ye wan' Kessler?"
"I wan'... I wan'... ye t' come back t' me ship," Heidi choked it out and then looked at the ground.
Jack smiled, "I know tha', why do ye wan' me t' come back t' yer ship though?"
"I need yer help ye bloody oaf!" she cried, her head snapping up to look at him. He was grinning at her and she noticed that she wasn't standing as far away from him as she hoped she had been. She took a step back and eyed him defiantly, the look was gone though as he took a step towards her. She stepped back again but found herself against a wall.
"Yer not going t' win Kessler, an as ye've noticed, ye've got nowhere t' go now," he said, walking up to her and narrowing the gap to just a few inches.
"Why do ye always follow me?" Heidi tried to say, but it came out more as a whisper than anything else. Damn him, he was going to kiss her, what was she going to do. Her eyes went wide as he came closer but then he stopped and pointed at her face.
"Ye got somethin' on yer face Captain," he smiled and backed up a bit, but there was still a closeness that made Heidi nervous.
"Sparrow!" she lunged at him and tackled him to the ground.
"Hey! It's not my fault ye wanted t' kiss me," Jack cried and fell backwards.
"I did not wan' t' kiss ye," Heidi growled and looked down at him.
"Aye by the looks of it, ye wanted more," Jack grinned cheekily and looked down. She was sitting on top of him in a very interesting position to say the least.
Heidi growled and tried to get off him but he held her down.
"Let me go Sparrow!" she cried and thrashed about wildly.
"I wouldn't be doin' tha' if I were ye," Jack stated as he tried to hold her down.
"An why not, I wan' t'..." she started but then felt something... interesting to say the least, "...oh... Jack ye filthy pig!"
"Hey! It's not my fault! Maybe if ye hadn't been jumpin' around on me!" Jack cried with a cheeky grin as she turned a dark shade of red.
Suddenly the grin on his face was gone and the room got about a million degrees warmer, Heidi was about to comment but the feeling of his lips pressing against hers shut her up immediately. It was like nothing she had ever experienced... but then she realized what she was doing. (A/N: Not much of a kiss I know... but things will get better and it's better than nothing right?)
Heidi pushed him away and stared at him, "Jack I 'ave t' get back t' me ship." With that, Heidi got up and rushed out of the room.
Jack sighed and got up; he walked out the door behind her and rushed over the plank that was being taken away.
"Kessler!"
Heidi grumbled and turned to face him, although she couldn't bring herself to look in his eyes, "Aye Captain Sparrow?"
"I thought ye wanted me on yer ship?!"
"Aye, Jack."
"Then why'd ye run off?"
Heidi glared at him, "watch yerself Captain, now ye can stay but ye'll be staying in a spare cabin. Not in mine."
Jack stared at her, "Okay an where be this cabin?"
"Sly take Jack to his Cabin," Heidi cried and turned back to the wheel.
The ships had let down their anchors for the night and the sun was falling below the horizon.
It was about dinner time and Heidi's crew had rushed below to the galley, she had not seen Jack since their incident but she figured that he was off helping below deck.
"Captain where would ye like yer dinner?"
"I'll take it in me cabin Sly, Captain Sparrow will be joining me Sly so bring up enough for him as well," Heidi replied as she put a rope around the wheel and started down the stairs to the main deck.
"Will do Captain," Sly replied and rushed off to find Jack. Heidi walked to her quarters and lit some candles to illuminate the room. It was a huge mess so she began tidying it before Jack came, wait, it was only Jack and why the hell did she think she needed to tidy it anyway? She shrugged her shoulders and continued, it needed to be cleaned anyway.
Soon enough there was a knock on her door and Heidi opened it to find Jack standing there with an odd look on his face.
"Wha's with the look Captain?" Heidi asked as she shut the door behind him.
"Well besides the fact tha' ye actually invited me yerself... yer quarters are clean!"
"Oh an like yer so much cleaner!"
"I am, I'm as clean as a pig!"
"Uh? Exactly Sparrow."
"Pigs be the cleanest animals, Kessler," Jack grinned cheekily and sat down, placing his feet on the table.
"Not from wha' I've seen, an get yer feet off the table we 'ave t' eat off tha'! Anyone who compares themselves to a pig is not welcome t' put their feet on me table."
"Yer a very odd one Kessler. Is yer table like yer curtains?"
"Aye, now..." she was interrupted by a knock on the door, "finally."
She opened her door and some crew members carried in all sorts of food and set it on the table, Jack watched with wide eyes, as did Heidi.
"I'm never goin' t' be able t' eat all tha', I hope yer hungry Jack."
The crew members left and Jack and Heidi sat down to eat. At first they ate and drank in silence but, as Heidi suspected, Jack hated silence and it was soon broken.
"Did ye 'ave any odd dreams while ye were out Kessler?"
"No, well not tha' I remember anyway, maybe I did," Heidi looked thoughtful, "nah, I don' think so. Why do ye keep askin' if I'm 'avin dreams?"
"Because they are one of the things tha' come along with the curse," Jack stated simply.
"Well could ye elaborate some?" Heidi cried exasperatedly.
Jack took a swig of rum, "Okay when ye picked up the bracelet it attached itself t' ye an it won't come off without the jewel I told ye about, now as ye've figured out the bracelet causes horrible things t' 'appen. One of those things is dreams an' I wish I could tell ye about them but no one's ever survived t' say anythin' about them."
"Lovely, jus' bloody lovely. So yer saying there's a good chance I won't survive this?"
Jack swallowed hard then gave a small smile, "don't worry luv, ye've got Captain Jack Sparrow."
Heidi swallowed and took a huge swig of her rum, her eyes were wide with worry and Jack noticed that she was trembling slightly. He looked thoughtful as he watched her and then in the blink of an eye he got up picked her up sat down and placed her on top of him. Heidi didn't object to this, she was too afraid of what he told her to think of anything else, although the feeling of his arms around her was starting to get to her.
"Do ye think I'll live Jack?"
"Aye."
Heidi nodded at his response and drank the rest of her rum, "Good, because if I die I'll come back t' haunt ye."
"I figured as much, don't worry luv I'd do the same thing."
A/N: Okay well that's the eighth chapter, I know it wasn't terribly interesting but it's better than nothing. OH MY! They kissed! AHH! I know that wasn't terribly exciting either but oh well...

Well here's my song of choice this chapter; it's called Nymphetamine (Overdose) by Cradle of Filth:
Nymphetamine (Overdose)
Cradle of Filth
Evanescent like the scent of decay
I was fading from the race
When in despair, my darkest days
Ran amok and forged her face
From the fairest of handmaidens to
A slick perverted wraith
Nymphetamine
Heaving midst narcissus
On a maledict blanket of stars
She was all three wishes
Sex, sex, sex
A lover hung on her death row
I was hooked on her disease
Highly strung like Cupid's bow
Whose arrows hungered meat
And the blinding flare of passion
In the shade of narrow streets
Where their poison never rationed
All the tips they left in me
Two tracks
Bric-a-brac
Something passed between us
Like a bad crack
Upward-lit
I'd met another kind
Of rat
In fact
With every rome inside me
Licked and ransacked
She haunted at the corners of my mind
In black
Cataracts
Wouldn't whitewash away
Her filthy smoke stack
She burnt me like a furnace
For my future suicide
Lead to the river
Midsummer, I waved
A 'V'' of black swans
On with hope to the grave
All through Red September
With skies fire-paved
I begged you appear
Like a thorn for the holy ones
Cold was my soul
Untold was the pain
I faced when you left me
A rose in the rain
So I swore to the razor
That never, enchained
Would your dark nails of faith
Be pushed through my veins again
Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above unto me?
For once upon a time
From the binds of your lowliness
I could always find
The right slot for your sacred key
Six feet deep is the incision
In my heart, that barless prison
Discolours all with tunnel vision
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine
Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, a vampyric addiction
To her alone in full submission
None better
Nymphetamine
Nymphetamine, nymphetamine
Nymphetamine girl
Nymphetamine, nymphetamine
My nymphetamine girl
Wracked with your charm
I am circled like prey
Back in the forest
Where whispers persuade
More sugar trails
More white lady laid
Than pillars of salt
Fold to my arms
Hold their mesmeric sway
And dance her to the moon
As we did in those golden days
Christening stars
I remember the way
We were needle and spoon
Mislaid in the burning hay
Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above unto me?
For once upon a time
From the binds of your lowliness
I could always find
The right slot for your sacred key
Six feet deep is the incision
In my heart, that barless prison
Discolours all with tunnel vision
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine
Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, a vampyric addiction
To her alone in full submission
None better
Nymphetamine
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine (Nymphetamine)
None better
Nymphetamine
Two tracks
Bric-a-brac
Something passed between us
Like a bad crack
Upward-lit
I'd met another kind
Of rat
In fact
With every rome inside me
Licked and ransacked
She haunted at the corners of my mind
In black
Cataracts
Wouldn't whitewash away
Her filthy smoke stack
She burnt me like a furnace
For my future suicide
Okay... not the nicest lyrics but it's a FANTASTIC song... don't forget to REVIEW!!!
