So from here to chapter seventeen I'm going to need some pointers

---------------

I woke up my head throbbing I stared into this black thing with circle patterns imprinted on it and it took me a few moments to work out I was upside down why was I upside down? why did my head hurt? why did my stomach hurt? where the hell is the crew? where the hell am I? I groaned as I was hit with waves of pain                                                                                                                                 "captain I think she's awake?"                                                                                                                             the person slipped me from their shoulder and placed me on the ground he didn't sound like any of the crew I let out another groan and as I felt the pain from something take hold I shook my head then stumbled awkwardly to my feet swaying from side to side my back started to slowly throb                                                                                                                          "Angel" I heard Neon shrike                                                                                                                       but as far as I knew some one was holding him back I looked up to see a tall man with black hair and blue eyes with what seems to be the same build as Rikard                                                                   'Rikard?' I thought                                                                                                                                      "well Angel" said a voice that was foreign to me it took me a few seconds to realise it was coming from the man that was not Rikard i'm a bit slow in the mornings                                                          "how are you feeling black bait?" he asked smiling                                                                    he grabbed my arm and stood me up straighter I pulled myself out of his grip but as soon as I lost that support I fell to my knees I heard laughs from the people behind me and the crew from in front of me growled their protests well at least I know where they are                                                                           "thats what happens when you hit an unconcise body" his voice had a hint of laughter in it                                                                                       I looked back with narrow and confused eyes then with a deep breath forced myself to my feet but I did not stand very tall I looked to the man who seemed surprised was he the one who hit me                                                                                                                                    "Angel" I heard Neon shout again                                                                                                           and this time he was allowed through he held my arm as I swayed from side to side then unable to stand any longer I fell into him I looked up at his face for a few seconds it seemed unaturally blurry I looked around seeing that the crew had been parted into three groups but there was one face I was looking for                                                                                            "where's Rikard?" I asked                                                                                                                                          at that point the conversations the crew had been having creased and they all took up expressions of mourners I felt the tinge of a frown on my face as I stood straight                                                                                                                                                "what happened?" I said                                                                                                      every one began to mumble                                                                                                                                                      "one at I time" I growled                                                                                                                           but I soon regretted it I got a dizzy spill and completely fell into neon who held me tightly to keep me on my feet there were no awe or teasing they knew this was serious                                                         "well" they all said simultaneously and shrugged                                                                    I lifted an eye brow but said nothing the figures were splitting and doubling and looked more like those things you see through kaleidoscope than human beings                                                                                                                               "shrugging doesn't tell me what happened" I said                                                                                           holding my arm to my ribs which I was sure was bruised along with the rest of my body                                                                                                           "it means that nobody saw where he went he was with us one second than gone the next" said Neon                                                                                                        I sighed just as I was hit with a sudden wave of nausea                                                                              "and what exactly happened?, I don't even remember getting up" every ones faces dropped                                                        "that's because you didn't well you tried but Buster over there hit you hard enough to break your neck" khan said looking back at the person I think to be Buster    just as the sickness I was feeling in my stomach got worse                                                         "I'm going to be sick" I announced                                                                               Neon jumped and most of the crew took up worried faces. Neon led me over to the boundary of the cluster and held my hair as I vomited I leaned back against the tree my eyes closing then men started                                                                                                         to round up the crew I opened my eyes but found I hadn't the strength to move as the man approached me                                                                            "I can't walk" I told Neon                                                                                           he nodded and stood up along with some other men and stood in front of me                                                                                                 "step aside" the man said harshly                                                                                             from what I could see, which was not very much, he was holding a battle axe and he was banishing it but they did not move                                                                                "she can't walk yet" Neon said as they bunched together                                                            I heard a shing and one of the crew fell back with a cry of pain I jumped at this                                                                                        "does it look like I care?, move aside" he repeated "or the next persons heads going to roll" my eyes widened                                                                                                                     "guys?" I said weakly "move aside?"                                                                                                     the way I had said it came out in more of a question then a request. they looked back to me then without another word moved to the side the man walked to me                                            "are you going to walk?" he asked distastefully "or is Solvent over there going to carry you again?"                                                                                              I looked over to Solvent he was dark skinned like Gallent but his hair was blond and he was well muscled I grimaced then with a sigh I wobbled to my feet I stood awkwardly for a few moments before I stood to my full height but, I was still a head shorter than him, I looked him in the eyes                                                                                                                                     "I will walk" I growled as my legs wobbled                                                                                            "good" he said smirking                                                       he turned away from me and the crew gathered around me I let out a sigh and went to take a step forwards and my vision began to darken and I paused mid step black dots began to appear in my vision and I staggered to the side feeling strong hands grab my body just as darkness consumed me                                                                                               everyones pov-                                               the crew of the hawk looked franticly at the limp body that was angel she was currently in gallents arms as he tried to wake her up                                      "come on little one" he called quietly and Buster sighed with irratation                "women are so fucking weak"                                     and that was when Khan snapped he turned to buster anger in his eyes Barium and Forum were quick to hold him back he never acted this way                                      "weak?" he growled "your crew were the ones to fucking do this to her"             Angel stirred slightly as Gallent continued to tap her face which scrunched up in annoyance                                                                                                     Angels pov-                                                someone kept tapping my face and I scrunched it up with distaste                                   "come on little one" Gallents voice called "wake up" I groaned                    "Gallent if you don't stop" I said weakly "i'm going to sock you one"                      "I would prefere that you did 'sock me one' then stay asleep"                     with that I stretched my arm out my fist lightly tapping his cheek I opened my eyes to smiling faces I sat up slowly my eyes coming into contact with Khan and the person behind him who had an axe above his head                                           "Khan" I yelled                                                his eyes widened as he suddenly ducked to the side Buster growled something incohersive as I shot to my feet ignoring the searing pain                                                 "that's our Angel" commented Gallent "always has to be the bigger ma-- women" the crew laughed and I glared back at them as I turned back to Buster I poked his chest hard with my finger his eyes widened and I suddenly started too feel ... violent is that normal?                           "who the hell do you think you are?" his crew looked on with amusement as he stepped back every time I hit his chest "picking on m--"                               his hand suddenly flew over my mouth he held it there as he swiftly turned me around pulling my body flat against his                                               "don't you dare talk to me like that" he growled into my ear                        he moved his hand from my mouth keeping his spare arm around my chest                    "get me some rope" he said                                      and that was when I dove my teeth into his  arm hard drawing blood he cried out            "oh i'm not finished with you so don't you dare tie me up you son of a bitch where do you stand that you think you can boss people around huh wise guy *poke* huh *poke* huh" Busters crew laughed with amusement as Busters looked on smiling                       "poke him a little harder tiger I don't think he's got the message" his first mate laughed and I turned to him his entire crew stepped back                                    "don't you start or you going to be next and that's when he stopped smiling he came forwards ready to back hand me but I held my ground                                 "do it" I said slowly narrowing my eyes "and tell me later how many stars you saw when I beat your ass from here to quin" he seemed to hesitate the he back hand me hard my head snapped to the side but I stayed standing I looked to him taking in his face remembering it if I faint then I moved fast scoring him in the... yes there he gasped and fall to him knees and I kneed him in the face knocking him out I turned back to the crew and Buster who looked at me wide eyed I looked back at Busters crew                              "anybody else?" I snapped they shook there heads wide eyed "good" I sighed I was very violent this morning      888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 I walked along getting a frequent shove forwards because I was walking too slow I think his name was Buster had decided after about five seconds that it was safer if I was tied up I was shoved forwards again this time I stopped making the bulky figure bump into me then I pushed back making him loose his balance then I heard a reassuring (and some what satisfying) thud as he hit the ground I then turned to see my handy work the man I had made falls name was Solvent he was the one who carried me as far as to where I woke up he stood up rage in his eyes every one stopped I took a ready pose (well as ready a pose as you can when your arms are tied ) as he came forwards to hit me but I was ready I dodged his fist and jumped up kicking him in the face making him stagger back he roared with anger blood fell from his nose and onto the ground I landed on two feet but I soon regretted it                                                              I got a thundering head ache I side stepped out of Solvents way the man was charging like a bull                                                                                                                    "STOP!" said a voice that was so loud it made my head ache worse                                            I turned slightly keeping an eye on Solvent but he was faster now and hit me in the chest knocking the air out of me and sending me head first into a tree I yelped I stood up my head span and I felt the blood fall down my head as I staggered forwards falling to my knees just for someone to grab my collar pulling me to my feet I coughed as I was pulled back and many men tried to restrain Solvent he roared in anger and I stiffened I felt a hand push down hard on my back my legs quaked with pain I yelped and my knees buckled but he held me tight                                                     "cut it out" he barked as Solvent relaxed                                                                   "yes captain" he said through gritted teeth as he turned away reluctantly and if looks could kill I would be chopped into bits and six feet under 888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 Okay now I am pretty sure his name is Buster. he dragged me far away from the others so we were both out of sight and ear shot of them                                                                                         "that was a sleazy move you pulled back there" he said keeping his tone neutral                                                                                           I did not reply I kept my gaze set forwards I moved around uncomfortably in the bonds the blood on my head had dried up                                                                                       "hello?" he said                                                                                                    waving a hand in front of my face he rolled his eyes as I continued to not reply                                                                                              "hump" I said                                                                                               "does your vocabulary consist I ms and hs or something?" he asked "because that's all your giving me"                                                                       "mmhrmm" I answered cheekily                                                                                               he sighed irritated as I looked away I mentally smiled and then the silence began to drag and for those few seconds I enjoyed the quiet                                                                                   "your little crew seem to protect you like some sort of treasure back there and I can see why" he looked me up and down through the corner of his eye                                                                           "I am no ones treasure" I growled my body tensing                                                                 "oh she speaks" Buster said mockingly "say something else"                                         "hump" I said                                                                                                        lifting my head higher and attempted to walk a bit faster but was pulled back                                                                             "stupid rope" I thought                                                                                                as he pulled me back towards him                                                                           "not so fast" he said "I still have a few questions to ask you"                                I balled my hands into fists and pulled back hard on the rope cringing slightly but he kept a firm grip on the end he was holding and tugged it hard making me stagger forwards into him I winced as I hit him he held me tight                                                                         "well" he said "now your falling in to my arms"                                                          I tried pulling out of his grip but he held tight                                                       "wait a second" he said "I have an offer for you"                                                    I stopped fidgeting                                                                                         "you could stay with us and we sell you off as a salve like the rest of them or I could turn you loose"                                                                                                  I bit my lip It was a good offer to me but I could not leave them behind after all they had done for me they were as close to a family as I could get                                                                       "no thanks" I said tugging out of his grip
