The end times

Chapter 8

Far away across the sea, Sao Feng's ship, the Hai Peng, was slowly moving. Inside, in a special room, were Elizabeth, two Chinese women, and Y/n. The two Chinese women were helping Elizabeth with her new clothes that were given to her. It appeared to be a beautiful Chinese outfit. "So what was it like to meet Cutler Beckett?" Elizabeth asked Y/n. She chuckled, thinking about how to describe it. "It was like meeting a monster," she said. "I gave him a good slap, my small revenge for what he had done to Jack and the death of your father," she said to Elizabeth.

"You slapped him out of revenge? "Why not kill him?" she said to Y/n. "Oh trust me, he will die, but the timing wasn't right," Y/n said. Sao Feng walked into the room and clapped his hands and spoke in Chinese, which made the two servants stop immediately and walk away. He then moved to a small table with a bowl filled with green leaves and water. "By this time tomorrow, we will arrive at Shipwreck Cove and you will be free," he said as he played with the green leaf in the water-filled bowl.

"Calypso," he said to Elizabeth, which gave her a confused expression. "Excuse me?" she asked him. "I knew it. Barbossa convinced Sao Feng that Calypso was Elizabeth. She has no choice but to play along," Y/n thought and gave a small signal to Elizabeth to play along with Sao Feng. Elizabeth understood and continued to look at Sao Feng's every movement. "Not a name you fancy, I imagine, out of the many you have...but it is what we call you," he said to Elizabeth.

He then turned to Y/n "I know that your ancestors had a special connection with her," he said. "Yes, in fact, as a child, I remember that we worshipped Calypso, for she was the goddess of the seas. I still worship her to this day," Y/n explained. "And yet, you knew she was bound in human form?" he asked, confused. "Only those who truly worshipped her are safe from her terror," she said. "We being who?" Elizabeth asked Sao Feng about his previous conversation, which gave Sao Feng a confused look, making Elizabeth smile.

"You confirm it," he said, and ate a green leaf from the water bowl. "Confirm what?" "I've told you nothing," Elizabeth said to Sao Feng. "The Brethren Court, not I," he said to her. "The First Brethren Court, whose decision I would have opposed," he said, hitting the pillar that Elizabeth was in front of, giving a small jump of nerves from both women. "They bound you in human form so the rule of the seas would belong to man and not..." he said, walking around the pillar and stopping in front of Elizabeth. "To me," she said, finishing his sentence.

"But one such as you should never be anything less than what you are," he said to Elizabeth. "Pretty speech from a captor," Elizabeth said to him with disgust. "But words whispered through prison bars lose their charm," she said. "Can I be blamed for my efforts?" he asked her. "All men are drawn to the sea, perilous though it may be," he said. "And some men offer desire as justification for their crimes," Elizabeth said seriously.

"I offer simply my desire," Sao Feng said to Elizabeth, who he believed to be Calypso. Elizabeth gave a small grin. "And in return?" she asked. "I would have your gifts, should you choose to give them," he said to her, moving closer. Elizabeth moved closer. "And if I should choose not?" she asked. Sao Feng had a sparkle in his eyes from her words. "Then I will take your fury," he said, and pushed Elizabeth against the pillar and began to forcefully kiss her.

Y/n was about to stop this, but it would appear Elizabeth bit him and he grunted in pain. Elizabeth's pants from the kiss and reaction of Sao Feng. Y/n quickly went in front of Elizabeth, protecting her. "You shall not attempt this; Calpyso is under my protection," Y/N said to him. "Choose your actions wisely," she warned him.

Sao Feng was about to go toward them, but a huge explosion came out of nowhere and led Sao Feng against the wall. Y/n and Elizabeth protected each other and gasped from the impact. "Are you alright?" both women asked at the same time. "Fine, you?" Y/n asked. "Fine," she replied. "It seems we are under attack." Y/n looking at the hole. "Sao Feng?" Elizabeth asked as she saw Sao Feng lying on the floor with a piece of wood stabbed inside him. "Here, please," he says weakly.
