Chapter 4: Freedom?

I gritted my teeth as I clashed my sword against his own. I'm going to put all my anger into this sword-fight.

How dare- CLASH

he kidnap- CLINK

me!- WHAM!

The captain's sword slid to the ground after I knocked it out of his hands. The captain, and the crew, looked surprised and confused.

He backed up as I neared closer to him, and he stumbled against a pole. I put my sword against his neck as I smirked.

I actually won, I guess those fencing lessons actually did pay off.

''Looks like I wo-'' I was cut off by his laughing.

I looked down and saw a blade inches from my stomach.

How. did he... no .. when did he!?!

''Actually, I believe it's a tie, love.'', he said with his playful eyes gleaming at me. ^J^

"That not fair!", i exclaimed. "I knocked the sword out of your hands!"
The captain glanced at me and then spoke,"Well sweety, life isn't exactly fair. Don't expect it to be." I could hear the smugness in his voice.

After he got up, he gave the crew ( including me ) orders, and left to his headquarters just like that.

He had given me the task of making dinner for all the crew members, which was a bit over 20 people. How original to give the woman the job of cooking, I thought to myself as I brought out the pot. I put water into the pot and boiled it, as I put noodles in it.

Why not make pasta for a change? It's better than burnt scones.... ( PASTAAAA !!!~ )

After I finished making and eating dinner, I decided to get some fresh air after being trapped in a room filled with alcohol-scented, sweaty men.

It was a bit cold outside, but I didn't care. I looked at the sun set from the rails of the boat. The scene was beautiful, and it smelt like fresh ocean breeze. It made me feel free.

' Is this what it's like to feel... free ?' I thought to myself. 'I actually.. like it. Instead of being locked away in my room for my own 'safety' '

I heard someone approaching behind me, and turned to find out that it was the captain.

''So how's a pirates life for you? '', he said as if he could read my thoughts from just my expression. He leaned on the rails next to me and looked out at the ocean.

''It's actually quite.. lovely, to be honest.'', I admitted.'' It's nice to feel ... freedom.''', I added, blushing from embarrassment.

I noticed him move a bit closer to me, and I felt my face get even redder.

''Freedom.....'' he said, repeating my words. He seemed lost in thoughts for a couple moments. Then he finally broke in on the silence.

''Aren't you cold?'', he asked concerned.

''Only a bit, it's fi-'', he took off his coat and put it on my shoulders.'' T-thanks..'', I managed to say.

He tilted his head a bit, looking at me.'' You know, you're pretty good with a sword.'' he said complimenting me.

''Thanks, cap'n'', I said blushing.

He thinks I'm good...

''But I think you need some improving on your skills. Tomorrow I'll give you lessons, got it?'' he said, as if he remember that he was captain.

... Never mind

'' Igh, Igh captain!'' I said mocking a salute.

'' It's getting late, we should get back inside.'' he said, leaving to his headquarters.

I just remembered, where am I going to sleep?

''Wait captain!'' I yelled before he managed to open the door to his headquarters.He turned around.

''Where shall I sleep?''

''Oh yes, I almost forgot. You're going to have to sleep in my headquarters for now, since we have no room.'', he said winking at me.

Oh, great. That's wonderful.
