It had been a full three days since Reaver returned to the tree hut. Sparrow wasn't sure if he was going to extreme lengths to show her that he is displeased with her or if he had an encounter with the island's inhabitants. There wasn't much the Hero could do either way. There was no indication of which way he went and she had no weapons to fight anything on this a cursed island. They may be drawn in by his smooth words, but after a few days it'll feel like a million ants crawling through their ears and they will surely kill him.

Everyday Sparrow has gone out and searched for him, but found absolutely nothing. She hadn't even found food, not that she felt like it was her biggest concern. That Pirate King Can't just steal her and then abandon her on a hostile island. Though at the moment, it seems that he had

the little bird sighed as the sun began to lower and she still found no sign. Her feet Shuffled to the house in the tree, already dreading the climb up.

The tree was surrounded by the trees savages. Sparrow quickly crouched behind some bushes they moment they came into sight. their hands shook as she tried to steady her erratic breathing. She couldn't help but wonder what became of Reaver.

The thought of him dead brought with it sadness, though she didn't understand. why. She should be overjoyed that she may be free from his clutches but she only felt more emptiness in her chest.

A hand found its way on her mouth an arm around her waist. The little bird tried to kick and scream until she heard a familiar voice whisper in her ear.

"Miss me?" Reaver asked standing so close that his lips lightly brushed on her ear.

Sparrow Stopped struggling and resisted the urge to moan though she's not sure why she wanted to moan in the first place.

His hand slid away from her mouth giving her the ability to speak.

"Where have you been?"She whisper yelled.

He shushed her and took her hand pulling her away. The two snuck away from the strange talking savages heading deeper into the dense forest, once Reaver was positive they were far enough away, he decided to explain where he was the past three days.

"The Savages caught up to me in the forest and surrounded me. I fired a bullet into the air and suddenly they worshipped me as a god."

"Are you serious?" she sighed.

"They brought me to their disgusting village. I only now managed to escape."

"Are you...alright?" Sparrow asked hesitantly.

Reaver Looked at her with raised eyebrows."Since when are you concerned about my welfare?"

"Since I can't survive in the jungle alone!" She snapped, but she wasn't entirely sure why she cared.

"Of course, "The pirate replied, "I'm always alright." Though Neither of them believed that statement

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Well, I discovered this is the island I intended to bring you to. Just the wrong damn side," he groaned in frustration.

"How'd you figure that out?"The little bird asked with confusion laced in her sweet voice.

"I learned the language they spoke on the more civilized side of the island and only on this island do they speak it,'' he explained seemingly uninterested.

The pirate enjoyed the look on his little bird 's face when she got curious. This look had been so vacant on her face when he first came in contact with her. Reaver understands that she was trying to cut herself away from the world just as he had, but there's no need for two empty Heroes to roam the world.

"Do we have to walk to the other side?" She groaned."How far is it?"

"very, and we're being hunted. We must make haste.''

sparrow groaned again in annoyance. Reaver smirked to himself at how childish she sounded. Then again, she never really had a childhood. The Pirate didn't know how she lived before Lucien ripped away her innocence if she even was innocent to the world. He was sure that if asked, Sparrow would not reveal anything. At least not to him. She was stubborn that way, but somehow the pirate found her stubbornness cute, unlike when they first met. If only they had met under different circumstances. By now, he would have bedded and discarded her. With what he's planning on doing to her... Reaver's not sure he can go through with it the way she's infecting his mind.

What is he saying?! Of course, he'll finish the Plan. He is REAVER and no Woman is going to change that.
