He doesn't believe me…but why should he, it doesn't make any sense.
"You don't believe me do you? It's ok, I wouldn't believe me either."
"I want to believe ye love, really, but it's just crazy."
"I know. I shouldn't have said anything, I'm sorry, I won't disturb you anymore."
She started to walk away but he grabbed her arm.
"Prove it"
"What?"
"Ye said that ye were from the future, prove it!"
"If I could I would, I would have done it a long time ago! I can't prove anything since everything I own is at Davy Jones' Locker now." Jack looked down at his feet.
"Not everything, we picked up some of your things when we rescued ye."
"What things! And why did you tell me this now? Give them to me, now!
Now this would be interesting. It was the strangest things that Gibbs and the others had picked up out of the water and now maybe he would find out what it was. He put everything on the table in his cabin and she looked very carefully at each thing, she was holding a wet envelope and picked up what was inside it. She gasped for air and dropped it. Jack picked it up and stared at them almost as shocked as Angela was. He could see her on a paper, and on another, and on another, but it didn't look like a painting, it was something else… "What is this?"
"Photos, you take this," she picked up, something; Jack had never seen anything like it before.
", and then, you take a picture. I wonder if it still works." She held it up and then suddenly he saw a flash, Jack shield his eyes. "I can't believe it, it works!" Jack looked up at her again.
"Look" She gave him a paper. Jack stared at it for a second, he saw himself, as if he was looking in a mirror. "How?"
Angela just smiled at him. "This," she held up the device, "is a camera, you use it to take pictures of people. Look" She got up from her chair and sat down on the one besides him.
"Here are some pictures that Jonathan took."
"Jonathan?" Angela looked away.
"My friend, he was with me on the boat when..."
"Oh, I remember, I'm sorry." He put his hand above hers, but she pulled it away.
"Don't be, it wasn't your fault." Jack took one of the pictures; he saw Angela and…Jonathan standing next to each other, he had his arm around her waist and she looked so happy.
"Were ye and him…I mean…"
"If we were together, as in lovers?" Ye were the one who said it.
"No, we were just friends."
"Ye don't hold each other like that if ye are just friends."
"We were just friends! I was not in love with him, and Jonathan was gay."
"He was what?"
"Gay, you know, a man who likes other men…"
"Oh…" She smiled.
"It's actually rather normal where I come from. You see them all the time, holding hands, kissing." Disgusting! "I don't think that it is anything wrong with that."
"You don't?"
"No! Oh come on, don't tell me that you never have kissed a man."
"Are ye bloody insane! Ye think I'm some bloody cross dresser! No I would never…what? She was laughing.
"Calm down Captain, I was just wondering." She called me Captain, finally!
During the next hour she showed him all of here things and told him about other things that she had in her time, cars, trains, airplanes, (No! You mean that humans can fly?) phones, movies and CD-players.
"Here put this on." She gave him something to put on his head. "It's amazing, both the camera and my CD-player work."
She pressed a button and suddenly he could here something, very loud as if it was in his own head. Jack nearly jumped off his chair; he couldn't understand where it came from.
"Calm down." She took the strange thing off his head and the sounds stopped.
"These are called headphones."
"What was that sound that came from them?"
"Music" Huh!
"Ye call that music? I just heard people screaming."
"You know what, never mind, I'll explain that to you another day."
"Aye, ye do that. Now I need something to drink, a little bit too much information for one day, savvy?" Angela just shook her head. Jack got a bottle from a cupboard.
He offered her some. "No thank you"
Unbelievable, not even rum…
The door was opened. "Cap'n, we need ye out here."
"Be right there Ana. Will ye be alright?" She nodded and picked up the pictures again.
Jack left the cabin.
She looked at her hands in the moonlight, for the first time she could see them.
So good it feels freedom. After 11 long years of hell, freedom.
She started to laugh again, a cold laughter, dark and evil.
The suddenly, a sharp pain in her chest, it felt like she was tarred apart.
She couldn't breathe, couldn't think, the pain took her over and she screamed…
Jack was standing by the helm when he suddenly heard someone screaming. It came from his cabin. "Angela." Jack ran back to his cabin and found her lying on the floor screaming.
"Angela! Angela calm down!" Jack grabbed her shoulders and started to shake her, but she wouldn't stop screaming. "Angela!"
Jack put his arms around her and held her tightly to his chest; he could feel her heart beating and her shirt was soaking wet.
She where fighting, trying to pull away from him, then suddenly she just stopped, her whole body was shaking. Jack just sat there, quiet, holding her. After a few minutes she started to move and he eased his grip on her, she looked up at him. She looks like a ghost.
"Are ye all right?" She stood up and backed away.
"Stay away from me!" She looked terrified.
"Angela what happened? Are…"
"I said stay away! Don't touch me, just leave me alone."
"Why, I'm just trying to help."
"I don't need your help. Stay away from me or you will get hurt."
"What are ye talking about? Did ye have another nightmare?" She didn't answer.
"Angela, what did ye see?" Angela was leaning to the wall with her hands clutched to her chest; she was looking down on the floor and was breathing heavily.
"He is after you, he wants to see you dead and he will stop at nothing to make it happen, he'll spare no one." She looked Jack straight in the eyes before she fell, she had fainted again.
Pain, he hadn't been in pain for so long, and he didn't like it.
The girl, he had seen her face now, he had felt her pain, her fears.
And she was with him! He was holding her, he cared for her.
"I hate him so much, but soon I will have my revenge, maybe sooner than I first thought, with a little help from that girl".
All tough, she is stronger than he thought, but not for long. He could feel it, and as she goes weaker he grows stronger. And soon, she won't be able to push him away.
That can't happen again!
Before he had bin in her mind and he had left when he wanted to, but now, she had pulled away before he was done! She had pushed him out of her mind.
He had to act soon, before she got her strength back…
