Walking into Theo's room, Danielle saw him now lying on his bed. Guilt and fear coud be seen in her eyes as she walked a few steps in, her love for her friend over powered her and a tear escaped her eye. She didn't take much notice of Gillette who sat beside his friend bed.

"I don't think you should be here." She heard Gillette say, which made her stare at him.

"Let her stay. I want her to stay." Theo stated weakly.

"After everything..." He stopped seeing his young friend's eyes and stared at Danielle. "You better not cause more trouble, because if you do..."

"I won't." Danielle stated guilty.

She watched as the older man walked out the room wryly and closed the door behind him, leaving Tho and Danielle alone. Slowly she turned her head and stared at him. Licking her lips nervously she walked forwards, her guilt and fear still showed; showing her affection for him.

"I'm so sorry Theo." She said sadly standing by his side, her eyes quickly looked over his bloody clothes and back to his face. "I didn't mean for this to happen. I...I love you friend."

"I love you too Danni." Theo said softly, picking up her hand, making her smile as she saw a smile on his bruised face.

With her other hand, she reached over to the chair and moved it closer to the bed. She sat down and lowered her gaze. Silence was the only thing that was held in the room. Worry filled Danielle, as her mind went back to what happened in Beckett's office. Worried what the future actually held for her. Will she survive his plans for the pirate world and what he had in store of her? She knew he weren't a man to give up so easily on the thing he wants, for years he had haunted her dreams was there a escape? Was there any escape for her in anything? It seemed not, but she couldn't give up easily, yet it felt like it was the right answer.

"Everything I've thought was right has led me here." Danielle stated out loud. "It felt right back when I thought of it, but now here I feel like it was the wrong choice."

"Danni, you've done no wrong. You were right to go into the force, to figure out the world yourself, to see how it works and be a better person than most of us could only dream of being." Theo said, which made her look at him. "You see you are here not because of your choices but of what he done. Something you can't simply forgive or forget. The thing that still haunts you and wakes you up in the middle of the night. The thing that left a burden upon you and were ones of the reasons which made you do this." Theo lifted her arm and gently rolled up her sleeve to show her fading scares. "None of this is because of you or what you have done, but what he done to you. You've always doubted yourself, but I knew you could make it. You can do anything if you put your mind to it."

"But the Guv is in the brig because of me and you are injured." Danielle stated. "If only if I was more powerful than him, then I could show him what I do to those who mess with me."

"And end up like Governor Swann or worse dead? Danni you have something more powerful already. You being yourself is enough. You have a good heart, you have something to live for and protect. Just remember people out there, me including love you for what you are." Theo stated, he raised himself to a sitting position, though his body was telling him to lie back down. Danielle rushed to him, but he ignored her. Sitting up, he patted the space beside him. With hesitation Danielle sat beside him. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder, and brought her nearer to him, with his other hand his fingers linked through hers, and they both stared at their hands. "People may have left you but some came back as they realised what they were missing and most stayed by your side and will always."

Slowly Danielle lowered her head and rested it on his shoulder, a smile upon her face again. She felt warmth something she had forgotten to feel along with love and hope, she had missed her friend so much. She loved him for the way he was. He was cute, tall and strong, he was kind and protective over his friends, she hoped he will find person who would treat him the same and make him happy.

"Thank you Theo, you always know how to cheer me up." She said breaking the silence.

"Well you are like a little sister to me. I looked after you for many years."

Quickly the peace was broken as Theo leaned forward and coughed violently, which made Danielle stare at him with worry and hold him. "Do you want anything, a glass of water?"

"I'm fine." He replied and slowly leaned back, and went back to normal as if nothing happened.

Hours passed quickly for the pair, they wished they could frozen time and stay together for a while longer, to cherish the moment. They both laughed, smiled and enjoyed the time, they revisited history and remembered times of fun, glory and hope; things they seemed to have forgotten.

"Danni?" Theo whispered as he turned his head. He smiled as his eyes landed on the sleeping Danielle. He slowly lowered her head to lay on the pillow. He took off his coat and without disturbing her, he put it over her, which seemed to cover most of her body. As he stared down at her, he could how beautiful she was, she was at peace for now and a way from being harmed, he hoped. He remembered when she was younger, she fought her fear with anger, he knew she still done it. It was her way of dealing with things but she will never change. Will the monster understand that or will he carry on trying to change her? He simply didn't know the answer but he knew he would fight for her no matter, she was his little sister after all.

Danielle sat on the rail, strumming her guitar quietly, she didn't want to wake anyone as she didn't want trouble. She found the guitar in Theo's room along with her weapons, she guessed he smuggled them on aboard without the monster knowing.

And you swore that you were bound for glory
And for wanting you had no shame
But I loved you
And then I lost you
And I will never be the same

"You do have a beautiful voice Danielle." She head the cold voice of the monster say, which made her stop and turn her head. "Don't stop on my account."

"I was done anyways." She stated plainly hiding her fear and anger. She climbed over the rail and stood on the wooden deck. "I got to see if Theo is ok."

She walked past the monster and notice he walked forward to where she was sitting.

"Ah yes, he had always looked after you. He saw something in you before anyone else did." Beckett stated, which made her stop walking. "I remember back in Port Royal when you were an Inspector, and everyone was at Lady Grange's Manor. You sang but the song didn't go down to the people but you do have talent. Shame that we stand on the opposite side of the line Danielle. I always think what would happen if we were on the same side." Danielle turned around in confusion, she watched as Beckett stood at the rail; looking out into the darkness. "You always showed leadership, I guess you showed that when you were working in the force."

"If we were standing on the same side of the line, I wouldn't still agree to work for you. I would rather die."

"Shame nothing will change your mind. I still see potential in you Danielle."

"What do you mean?"

"Wit your brains you can do a lot of things, more than you can ever imagine. You loved though you thought you never could. You gained a lot from your past and learnt people hide their weakness."

"You can say what you like, still not going to work for you."

"You think I am lying?" Beckett asked turning around to stare at her.

"Then why are you saying any of this?"

"Is it hard to see? Is too hard to believe I love you?"

"Well yes. After everything you done and put me through."

"As I said before I regret those actions, but I know I can't take them back. I just want to protect you..."

"Protect me?" Danielle echoed confused, her words laced with anger. "How was forcing me to make love to you..."

However she was cut off as Beckett covered her mouth with his hand and his wrapped his other arm around her waist; locking her left arm. Again she was pressed against him, however he gained the power as he had her in his arms. She dropped her guitar and with her right hand she tried to push his hand away from her mouth, but it was useless.

"Is there any point of going through all this again?" He whispered in her ear. "To deny your true feelings? Can't we just get along for once, be adults in all this?"

Quickly Danielle opened her eyes and let out a sigh. She let her eyes wander around her, and it came to her where she was; safe and away from the monster. She turned herself around and let out a sigh, as she wished she could shake the nightmare away but it was getting worse, everything becoming more real; something she didn't want.
