Trouble on The Jolly Roger

Chapter 8

THE NEXT DAY
Emma woke up really early. She couldn't fall back asleep. She walked around the ship until she found a big room full of weapons. She picked up the bow and arrow and shot at the bullseye that was painted on the wall.  She kept shooting until a voice startled her and made her miss.

Hook laughed. "You've got good aim"

She smiled for a second. "Thanks"

He nodded and smiled. "What made you pick the bow and arrow as your weapon of choice?"

She held up the bow. "If I were to pick a weapon to go fight someone with I'd obviously pick a sword. Bow and arrow is just something I do when I'm bored to practice aim"

"A sword? I saw you fight once. Wasn't that good" he stated.

"That was nothing. I was distracted"

"Yeah. Okay" he started walking away until she shot an arrow right next to his head.

"I challenge you" she stated.

He turned around. "With swords or bow and arrows?"

"Sword" she answered.

He unsheathed his sword from his waist. Emma picked one off the wall.

"You sure?" He asked.

She jabbed at him but he jumped out of the way. "Yeah"

"Ok then" he said and they started fighting.

After a few minutes she had him pinned to the floor. She was on top of him with the sword against his throat. He tried to get up but she would just shift her weight into a sensitive part of the hip.

"Okay okay!" He said and held up his hand and hook.

She got up and put the sword on the wall.

"You're better than I thought"

"Told you I was" she said.

"Maybe I was wrong about you. Guess I gotta open up a little more to see what you're really like" he said and walked back to the deck.
