#18 As You Wish

I slowly regained consciousness. I was swaying back and forth, my wrists, chained up to a sail post.

I looked around and saw a crew of pirates running around.

A pair of boots came in my peripheral vision.

I turned my head and looked up at the filthy pirate.

"Look who is awake." said the raspy voice.

"What do you want with me?" I asked.

"Revenge. I don't know if your father told you or not, but he murdered my father."

"I know that my father used to be a bad guy, but he hasn't murdered anyone recently." I protested.

"Oh no, he murdered my father before you were born." He stated.

"Who was your father?"

"Black Beard..."

"I have heard of him, but why do you need me?"

"You see, your father doesn't know that you are gone, and I didn't leave a trace about who took you. So once I'm through with whatever I am going to do with you, I will kill you. And your parents will suffer with a loss of a family member, just like I did."

"A little violent, don't you think?" I scoffed.

"Shut up!" he kicked me in the side.

"I swear, once my father and mother get here, they will-"

"They will what?" he asked. "Even though your mother is the savior, she doesn't have the will to hurt someone."

"That is not true. When my parents are angry with someone, they will do any drastic measures that need to be done."

"I wouldn't be so confident." he got down to my level so that our faces were almost touching. "I will be back in an hour. Be ready to have some... fun."

He smiled wickedly.

"Perv." I spat in his face.

He wiped his face.

"Wrong move Hannah, just wait for it...."

He left and I noticed that he accidentally dropped the keys. I stretched my leg but they were a good two inches out of my reach. I pulled on the chains as much as I could, making the binds cut into my skin. I held in a whimper and reached the keys. I pulled them in and slid them near my side.

Some pirates walked by while I hid them. Once gone, I unlocked by of my hands and ran to the side of the boat. I looked down at the water and then back at the pirates.

"Hey, she is escaping!" yelled a pirate who was washing the deck.

I saw the captain advancing toward me so I jumped into the freezing water.

My body immediately felt numb.

"How did you escape?!?" Yelled the captain.

"Maybe you should be smarter than your keys!"

"You made a big mistake...." he said.

"Why? for leaving you?!?" I yelled.

"No," he smiled evilly, "because you just basically committed suicide. Good luck with the mermaids!"

Mermaids?

His ship picked up the speed and was pretty far by now.

What did he mean by suicide and mermaids? I thought mermaids were nice creatures?

I shook that thought out of my head and kept swimming.

I had to stop and take break. I tread water I place and felt something brush my leg.

I looked down but it was impossible to see anything in the dark water.

Something scaly brushed my leg again.

"Who's there?" I yelled.

A head popped up in front of me.

"Oh uh," I tried to remain calm, "hello there. I was just swimming through quickly to get away from-"

She hissed revealing her sharp fangs. I slowly started to swim backwards when I bumped into another mermaid.

They both hissed, nodded, and pulled me down under the water. They restrained me so that I couldn't break free of their scaly grip. I screamed, resulting in my water entering my lungs.

Everything slowly got darker.

I saw two bright lights of green flash near us, making them scatter.

I could not move, it's like I was dead weight.

I closed my eyes and accepted my fate.

I felt two arms wrap around my waist. I tried to open my eyes to see who it was, but I couldn't. It was too late.

********

My eyes fluttered open. I was wrapped in a blanket but still shivering. I look to my right and see a boy with short brown hair and brilliant green eyes looking down at a book.

"Wh-where am I?" I stutter.

His head flew up.

"Oh thank god you are all right."

"Who are you?" I asked.

"I'm Peter Pan. And you?"

"I'm Hannah Jones."

"Interesting. Any relations to Killian Jones?"

"Yes, my father. Do you know him?"

"Yes, let's just say we are not the best of friends."

I felt a burning passion in my chest. I began coughing, some water coming up.

"Easy, easy...." he cooed. He sat in the edge of my bed.

"Ow.. it burns." I said.

"I know, you swallowed a lot of water. I pulled you up just in time."

"Wait, you saved me?" I asked looking into his eyes.

"Yes. Of course." He grabbed my hand.

"Thanks." I smiled.

"Wow, you are freezing cold love." He said, "here."

He got closer to me and wrapped his arms around me. Almost instantly, I felt warmer in his embrace.

"Thanks Peter." I blushed, "I really appreciate everything that you have done."

"No problem, I would do anything for a girl as beautiful as you."

"Then can you do me one more favor?" I smiled.

"Anything."

"Stay here with me." I said while resting my head on his chest.

"As you wish..." he whispered.
