Their he was. My heart stopped. I had tried find him and he had come to me.
I recognized Will, now. I'd seen him on Tortuga. He'd been with my father.
My father was HERE.
The sudden knowledge hit me hard. I had to go. I was tied down, and I needed to be free more then ever. I needed to kill.
Kill him.
He swaggered into the room, and talked to Elizabeth and Will. They looked over in my direction, and then over to the chest of gold, sprawled across the floor. He came nearer and I tried harder to get away. Not away from him, oh no.
Away from these dreadful ropes holding me down.
Pirate haters.
He was close now. I was trying to free myself so hard my eye were watering. Kicked, I did, and scream into the cloth in my mouth. He approached in caution.
He didn't really need to approach with caution. I was tied so good to the chair I couldn't move. Naught an inch.
He got closer, till he was right in front of my face, inches till our noses would hit.
"How?"
The question was small but his voice hit me like daggers. Ripping at my flesh. He hated me.
"Who?"
He didn't recognize me? Well then again, why should he? He'd never met me.
I didn't say anything. . . not that I could, I was still gagged. He looked at me, really looked at me. What was he expecting? My name and purpose to be scrawled across my face, was that was he was trying to find? I didn't think so.
He was shorter then I expected, but his eyes were exactly how I imagined them. Big- droopy, just the kind that would hook in innocent women like my mother.
He studied me a while longer, and I continued to kick and scream and fail and movable part of my body. Get away from me, I'd think then no come close and take away my gag, then I can bite you.
After a while he when to consort with Will and Elizabeth, those dreadful people who called him here, and tied me down so that I cannot hurt him.
I wore my self down. I kicked and failed so long I couldn't move. They un- gagged me, I guest to ask me questions... Questions that I wouldn't answer.
"How did you get the gold?" Asked Elizabeth. He voice angry, amazed, and very un-amused all at once.
I would play with them. I could play with them. And; I hardly need to lie in the process.
My smiled must have startled them because they all flinched. "Ask Jack," I said, looking nowhere and everywhere all at once, best I could. "He helped me do it."
They air in the room seemed to reduce at least thirty degrease.
I laughed trying to sound slightly crazy, but smart, and knowing all at once. I don't thin kit worked so well, because Will laughed too.
Jack was next. "Who are you after?" That look in his eyes! That voice.. He was becoming like my "followers". He was infatuated with my "intelligence". I was disgusting listing to my father and see my father, the only person I really have truly hate with a passion look at me like I was amazing.
I wouldn't answer his question. No indeed I would not. He could kill me before I would- but yet he had the right to- no he doesn't he had no right at all! But still.. "I uh, am after..." I could tell him and we could fight, or I could not this is ridicules, he mustn't know at all! It was coming I had to say something. but what to tell him. "I'm after; The king!"
The last part came out strangled. The king?
