Soon they were getting ready to land on the Cygneous Cross Nathan threw in some cloths for Jen to put over hers. "What's this for?" "So no one will know whom you are Miss. Arrow." Jen looked at him but placed on the mans shirt and baggy kackis. "now pull your hair up and place it under the bandana. Jen knew what they were trying to do they were trying to make her look like a guy.
She looked in the mirror and thought , 'I look nothing like a guy..maybe if I was thirteen or twelve.' But being a girl of nearly seventeen she was too much a grown woman to hide. "Close enough." Nathan said leading her out. Jen grabbed a piece of rope and tied it around her wast hiding a flintlock and pocket knife under it. "Well , well well what happen to the raven beauty , hope your comfortable missss Arrow. " Scroop's slithering voice said.
Her dark eyes glared him down his bright golden ones reflecting off. "Misssster Granger take care of thisssss one will ye?" "Aye sir." Nate had a look just as dark as scroops. That worried Jen as he tugged on her arm. "where are we going?" she asked as the went through town. "Were pick us up a new first mate since the last one wanted you to get away."
"I'm not helping you find Treasure Planet." Jen knew if she told them it was destroyed they'd kill her on the spot. "Oh you will Jeanine you will weather you like it or not." "What d you mean?" "We have ways to make people talk." "You don't seem like the torcher type of man Mr. Nathan. " "I'm not I cannot harm a female , but you do have a family. You have an ill father do you not? And your mother? What about your God-parents? And lets not forget that boy friend of yours."
"Don't you dare bring my family into this!" Jen stopped walking but he gabbed her arm again. "Then be a good girl and tell us. And no harm will come of them trust me." "You mean that?" Jen really didn't trust Nate as far as she could throw him but she had too try. "I do if you promise me not to run." "she only knodded she wasnt going to promise."
They went into a Tavern called 'One chance' it was full of gruff looking men , Jen knew more then likely were pirates , thevies and swindlers. "Sit here." Nathan comanded of her making her sit down in a corner booth. "Don't talk to no one." he urged for her safety. Jen sat there all alone , cross legged and sipping her water. she read a sign that read : No women allowed!
'Thats why im dressed as a guy..' she thought pulling her over sized coat over her more. She placed her face in her hands as she rubbed her temples. the smoke in the room was in toxicating and thick She could hardly see anyone Cigar smell filled her senses.
thenshe herd someone say , "Hello , a glass a water please..and i'm looking for someone my girlfriend...Jen Arrow?" "Sorry son I been in here aint no females allowed in here." "Jim!" she said louder than she hoped but he didn't hear her. she couldn't see over her hat but she seen two feet and white and gold pants. "May I sit here?" 'Jim!' She scooted over. "Jeeze what-a-day." he said . "What you here for?" "My girlfriend was taken by pirates..I'll do anything to get her back!"
"Really?" "Yes she's she's special ya know.." "Well your special too." she said in her normal voice and looked up. "Jen!" "Hiya Jim." "what are you doing here?" "One of my captures brought me here he is in the back.." "c'mon lets get out of here!" He took her hand. "Jim he'll come after you guys if I go.. ""Jen we'll fix that your parents miss you your dad needs you!" She thought about it and said , "Alright lets go but quickly Nathan will be back soon!"
"Nathan?" "C'mon." they got up and walked to the door when they herd " Hey!" both turned and seen Nathan standing there." "You know him?" "thats him lets go. "she grabbed his hand and they ran quickly removing her clothing and picking up a duffle back she dropped off outside they ran into a desertied building for her to get back in her Interstellar uniform. "What do we do now Jim?" "We-" "We aren't doing anything." Both looked up and gasped there standing was Nathan with a gun drawn and he didn't look too happy.
