Chapter 31
After about half a minute of stunned surprise Mari relaxed and leaned against him slightly. Enjoying the moment, currently and temporarily oblivious to everyone else. And glad of it. Suddenly out of nowhere she was slammed into the mast, she lashed out before her attacker had time to blink. Sarah was sent flying into the railing and barely managed to stay onboard.
"You little rat!" Sarah shrieked, Mari bowed mockingly, smirking as she did so. Revenge would be too sweet. "Are you challenging me?" Sarah asked looking appalled. Mari applauded.
"I'm so glad you figured it out. Maybe it will bring you too your senses. Woman born fancy should stay fancy, No offense Elizabeth." Mari said, realizing what she had said had also almost pertained to Elizabeth.
"Not at all, may I join you?" Elizabeth asked.
"I would be honored." Mari said.
Suddenly all the men were forced to retreat to the railings and ratlines to keep in safety. Sarah was mostly blocking, it was amazing how fierce she could fight even with her upbringing. But she was hardly a match for Elizabeth, who had been taught how to fight with a sword by Will, and Mari. Who could do just about any move and land some damage. Then the fight moved below and the crew followed, highly interested in how it turned out and was enjoying the entertainment. As sludge infested water entered Mari's foot wounds she had to leap up onto a gun powder keg, to give them a rest. But it only gave her an advantage; she lashed out with both feet, while balancing on her hands. Sarah fended off one blow but was struck by a blow from Elizabeth. She was slowly and fiercely being forced into a brig cell. Finally they got her in one and Mari kicked the door shut with an almighty slam. The men quickly retreated to the upper deck, just in case the girls didn't want them to see that and were still a little pissed. Elizabeth and Mari were breathing hard, but Mari was grinning, she couldn't have been happier.
"Come on let's get those bandaged." Elizabeth said. Mari shrugged and jumped from the barrel to the steps, trying not to irritate her wounds anymore than they already were. They retreated quickly and quietly to Mari's cabin. Orion screeched and landed happily on her shoulder.
"I'm glad to see you to." Mari said, reaching under her bed and retrieving bandages and ointment.
"So what did you do this time?" Elizabeth asked.
"I thought it would be smart to run barefoot over more than half the island length then go swimming in the ocean." Mari retorted smirking. Elizabeth shook her head.
"How much of that is true?"
"All of it, just a shortened version."
"Oh, so what do you think is going to happen?" Elizabeth asked, as she banged Mari's bleeding feet.
"What do you mean?" Mari asked casually. She knew what Elizabeth meant but didn't know how to answer, nor did she actually want to. But she did think about it. What is going to happen? Nothing is certainly going to be the same, that's for certain. But is it worth the risk? Should I take this chance? Mari felt a slight pain in her stomach as she remembered the last time she had risked love. She wanted to trust jack, but if something went wrong, what would happen. She wouldn't be able to stand the pain again, that was more than certain.
"You know what I mean Mari. Will you go with Jack?" Elizabeth asked, cutting across her thoughts. Mari shrugged.
"I don't know; I'm not sure if it's worth the risk." Mari said, stroking Orion's feathers softly.
"It all depends, Mari. Do you love him back? More over, if you do love him, do you trust him?" Elizabeth asked. Mari didn't say anything. She didn't know; everything had hit so fast, faster than she had expected. Elizabeth sighed heavily.
"Well, why don't you think about it and try and get some sleep in a real bed and not on the ground. Will had something he wanted to ask me before you guys got back." Elizabeth said and left, closing the door behind her.
