*STRONG LANGUAGE AND VIOLENCE, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED*

It all started when a group of pirates raided my village about a week ago, they took all the village's money and treasure and everyone just stepped aside and watched. We lived in a poor village so there was no way I was letting a bunch of pirates take what we worked so hard to get. I tried to fight them off as best as I could but in the end, they had already reached their ship and had taken everything from us. I was about to just give up and turn back home but the captain grabbed me from behind and covered my mouth with his filthy hands.

Captain- "QUITE THE FEISTY ONE AREN'T YA?"

As I tried to push him off, I could feel his free hand exploring my body, and then he inhaled my scent from the back of my neck, gross.

Captain- "MMM, SUCH A SWEET SMELL, TELL ME GIRL....ARE YOU A VIRGIN?"

What a creep!! And to make things worse, his crew was staring at me, like they're waiting for me to answer.

Captain- "HOW ABOUT WE MAKE A LITTLE DEAL? I'LL LET YOU AND THE PEOPLE ON THAT VILLAGE OF YOURS GO FREE, IF YOU COME WITH ME TO MY QUARTERS FOR A FEW HOURS."

WHAT?! Ew! Gross! What kind of deal is that?! I need to get off this ship, but there's no way I can fight him off....unless.

*munch*

Captain- "OW!!!"

I bit his hand, childish I know, but he let go of me. I tried to make a break for it but some guy hit the back of my head with a glass bottle and I fell down instantly, my eyes getting heavier by the second.

Captain- "STUPID BITCH! I TRIED TO BE NICE, BUT IF YOU WANT TO PLAY DIRTY THEN I'LL DO JUST THAT! MEN! BURN DOWN THE WHOLE VILLAGE!!"

I tried to get up but sleep had taken over me and I instantly blacked out. How did I let myself get into a situation like this? I just had be be the brave one here huh.

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

I woke up later that night only to find that I had a collar on with a chain attached to it and the chain is hooked onto the floor. I had been stuck in the lower levels of the ship for a week and I haven't even seen daylight since. Every now and then someone would bring me food but it would just be a few seconds of sunlight and then it's back to darkness. I didn't even want to eat the food they give me. I don't even know if this food is even ok to eat. What if they put some drug or poison in it so they could take advantage of me or even kill me? But starvation was hitting me so hard that I couldn't resist a nibble. I slowly ate my food and started to wonder how I'm going to get out of here. I do not plan to live the rest of my life here as a prisoner. I just prayed that a miracle happens to me because right now, I really need it.

Crew member- "WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!"

Someone yelled on the deck and I tried to stand up but the collar on my neck was so heavy that it kept me from standing up all the way. I started to panic, if the ship sinks then what will happen to me? I can't escape with this collar still chained onto the floor. I had dreams of falling in love, getting married and having children of my own but how can I make that happen if I'm about to die?

BOOM!!

Ow! That canon fire was so loud that it made my ears hurt. I could hear alot of footsteps running around the deck, and swords swinging and hitting against each other. I just hope no one crashes onto the lower levels, or else I'll be screwed for sure.

Crew member- "CAPTAIN IS DOWN!!!"

Wait, seriously?! Does that mean I'm free if I can get the heck out of here?! I don't think I have ever been so happy to hear someone die before!
