Chapter 12 (part 2)

A few weeks later at Darius's office Darius came in and the servant went to talk

to him.

Servant:Mr Darius you're back...have you just arrived?

Darius:yes

Servant:and why this soon, I thought it could be longer...at the facing you're making I have to think that you don't have good news

Darius:not good neither bad...at the isle no one know anything about Tommy and neither of Kyle or the boat...there is nothing on the port registers that leads that the 'Devil' was on the isle.

Servant:and now?

Darius:I don't know what to think

Servant:little by little everyone has vanished...Quest, Wally, Speed and all their friends. Here know one had heard from them...and neither of Angelica

Time passed and it was the day before Chris's and Sadie's wedding, at the

mansion Jamie, Sadie and Chris were playing a game.

Jamie:look this is an old English game, its called cricket

Sadie:cricket?



Jamie:yes, it's easy and funny...you put the bat here and kick the ball...of course it has to pass under that

Sadie:yes, I understand that

Jamie:do you want to try?

Sadie:no, you Chris

Chris:no, try Sadie

Jamie:here...you put a hand under the other one

Sadie:like this?

Jamie:yes...now swing the bat and push the ball...good

Sadie:(they were laughing) you're making fun of me

In that moment Mike came to talk to Chris.

Mike:Mr Chris it has just arrived a group of prisoners

Jamie:let's go see them

Sadie:and the game?

Jamie:first comes the work...in the meantime you can practice

They left. Jude was sitting in the garden of the mansion telling a story to the

children. Chris Mike and Jamie were passing from there and immediately Chris

saw her and was looking at her. Jamie that saw his friend slowing down looked at

him and saw him looking at something so he looked his way and he saw Jude.

Jamie:what a change eh?

Jude was dressed nicer than the other time she came to the mansion more

seductive not that she was fully exposed but she had some skin that you can see.



Chris:yes

Jamie:she's very beautiful

Chris:I have to maintain the promise I made her

Jamie:what promise?

Chris:to build a school for the children of the workers

Jamie:don't you think you're spoiling her to much?

Chris:I feel remorse for what I did to her

They continued walking and Jude saw them. She smiled politely to them and them

left. They arrived were the prisoners where.

Mike:these are new

Chris:from where they sent them?

Mike:from the town

Jamie:you see what a present...strong men and any of them will be worth of 5 of the workers you have here

The prisoners were Quest, Wally, Speed and other 5 prisoners. Chris moved near

them and pointed to Quest.

Chris:this one I know him and even this (he pointed to Wally)...I saw them in the tavern with Tommy...good take them in the room and tomorrow they will begin to work

Jamie:what, but tomorrow you're getting married

Chris:of course and it's going to be a feast for everyone...and there is still many things to do so let's not waste time

After Chris and Jamie left Mike told the prisoners to follow him to their room.



That evening in Sadie's room Victoria, Sadie and Anna were talking and seeing Sadie's

wedding dress.

Victoria:it's wonderful

Anna:it's a very rare material imported from France

Victoria:you're going to be a beautiful spouse Sadie

Sadie:you think?

Anna:I'm going to tell them to serve dinner

Victoria:yes, Anna

After Anna left

Victoria:and this is for you Jude

Jude: for me?

Sadie:you will be my maid of honour after all...I don't want you to wear like a servant

Victoria:please Sadie

Jude:thank you very much mother it's a nice dress

The dress was pink, it was long with a split that goes up to the left leg and it was

starched from the top but loose up from the bottom.

Victoria:(before she left) don't be late it's time for dinner

Sadie:finally tomorrow I'm getting married and the most thing that satisfy me is that you will return to our house and I will not see your face again

Jude:neither me yours



Sadie:good, at least we agree on something

The next morning the 'Devil' came back in the port of the town. The boys that

were always running there saw Tommy and they all went to him. Tommy as

always was playing with them and gave them some money. Tommy immediately

went to see Mr Darius with Kyle. He was dressed more as a gentleman than when

he left and that meant that everything went good. They knocked at the door.

Servant:I'm coming

Tommy:is Mr Darius here?

Servant:so you're back?

Tommy:yes, I'm back...Mr Darius is not here?

Servant:yes, but he's sick

Tommy:sick?...is he in bed?

Servant:no, he's in the kitchen...but at this moment he has his feet in the water and can't come

Tommy: (turned to Kyle) wait for me here

Servant:where do you think you're going?

But Tommy just continue walk to the kitchen.

Servant:you can't enter Mr Darius is sick

Darius:what is happening?...(shocked) Tommy

Tommy:Mr Darius...where are Quest and Speed?

Darius:you're back?...they said you were in prison on the isle



Tommy:me?

Darius:yes, I even came to search for you

Tommy:I never was in prison

Darius:they even told me that they gave you 10 years of prison

Tommy:it's not true they lied...perhaps it was because I had some problems with the authority of the isle but then I continued the journey...I was in other places

Darius:I'm happy Tommy...you can't imagine how worried I was for you

Tommy:I found out that Quest and Speed has been arrested and that no one know anything about them

Darius:yes, it true...and even Angelica is gone

Tommy:Angelica?

At the mansion the ceremony was finished and everyone was at the party.

Back to Darius and Tommy.

Darius:you don't know how much I tried to search them...I asked everywhere for them but it's like they have vanished...I just wish that the story that Leopardi told me is true...that they escaped...but you Tommy why have you been away so long?

Tommy:we had some problems...we found ourselves in a tempest and we had some troubles with the boat...but after all everything went good and now I have enough money to retire

Darius:oh yes, I see it...nice suite, luxury shirt...you can't imagine how much you look like your father



Tommy:please don't let me remember those thing now...now I have to find my friends

Darius:of course...I think they had hide somewhere but maybe now that you came back the news will get around and they will come back to you

Tommy:are you sure that Angelica was with them?

Darius:of what they told me ...when they arrested them she was there too

Tommy:I haven't' been at my house yet ...from the port I came directly here

Darius:you don't know how much I'm sorry Tommy...this last trip you made it was lucky for you and now...you came back rich and instead of a party you found this bad news

Tommy:I will find them...I know I will find them...and the responsible for this have to face me

Darius:Tommy I have everything ready for the transfer to give you my name...the only thing waiting is your sign

Tommy:thank you...thank you for everything...I will come tomorrow to sign them

Darius:are you always going to get married?...or you changed your mind?

Tommy:what a question, of course I want to get married. I did this trip because of that so I can give to my wife everything she wants

Darius:I'm happy for you it was about time that you put your head in the right way

Tommy:thanks for everything ...I see you tomorrow

Teasers:



Worker:and you think someone will care?...no one of the owners take care of our aches...no someone there is Miss Jude, she's an angel sent on earth...if she sees him she can do something...she was the one that saved me because that bastard of Mike nearly killed me

Quest:(laughing) think about it the wife of the owner is a one of Tommy's girls ...imagine the face of the husband when he will notice

Speed:because if she tells him that she was Tommy's lover...the husband will revenge it on us

Kyle:maybe she went back to the club...after all that's where you knew her

'She's so different from the other so strong and beautiful'.

Chris:Jude you will never compete with your sister...after someone knew her he can't fall in love with you

'the one I wanted the one I desired in that moment was Jude'.

Darius:please Tommy calm down...they invited me to their marriage but I didn't went because I was sick
