"The ship is ours!" Jack shouted as everyone started to calm down. Robbie and I exchanged glances before looking back up. Than the doors of my fathers office open. Everything became dead silent.

"Uh oh..." Robbie and I said together.

The sound of my father's heavy foot steps filled the silence. Jack turned around to face him only to slowly cower away. The men stood straight, letting go of Angelica and the zombie like men.

"Gentlemen..." My fathers disapproving voice trailed off as he glanced down at the men. He lifted the bottle of rum in his hand and drank from it. The bottle of rum was thrown on the deck causing me to flinch. I hated the thought of rum nor did I like my father drinking it. The speech my father was giving was bringing fear to the men and even Robbie. I was even a little scared. My father placed his hand upon the top of his sword, I knew something bad was about to happen.

"Come on." I whispered to Robbie as I see rope slithering across the deck. Robbie didn't move. "Robbie..." I whispered in a high pitched voice. My hand hand gripped his, bringing him out of his trance. A light pink appeared on his cheeks. The sound of my father yelling and lifting his sword into the air cause us to jerk our heads toward his direction. Men were being lifted from the ground and into the air. Robbie went up while I remained down. My hand still clasped to his, I tried bringing him down.

"Anna! Help me!" He shouted over the screaming pirates. I grunted as I tried to pull him down.

"I'm trying! Don't let go!" But the rope was slightly stronger. "Robbie!" I screamed as he went up. I fell to the floor with a loud thud.

"Anna Marie, come here my daughter." My father called as he walked down the stairs. I stood up and walked over to him. He gave me a soft but stern look. "Why did you try to help that boy?"

"Because he didn't do anything, only helped me from being tied up by your pathetic crew." I said sternly. My father glanced at Robbie then back at me.

"The cabin boy?" He asked surprised.

"Yes, father." I said quieter this time. I quietly prayed that he wouldn't do anything to him.

"I see." Was all he said to me.
